Items Telegraphed from Washington.

Two days before the expiration of his lease
of office, Commissioner Greenwood concluded
contracts for improvements upon the reserva.
tions of the Kaw, Fox and Fac Indians, in
Eastern Kansas, to the amount Of nearly two
hundred thousand dollars. Upon examination,
it has been found that the most extravagant
prices we're to be allowed to the contractors,
whereby at least forty thousand dollars would
be lost to the Indians. The present Commis.
soner has issued orders not to commence work
under the contracts, and will probably annul
them altogether.
/ The service on the Southern overland mail
route will be formally discontinued to-day,
March 2s,) but orders were already issued
some time since to postmasters to forward all
letters to the Pacific coast, marked overland,
by sea.
The contractors expect TO commence service
on the central route on the lst Of June, but the
Department does not expect things to be in
working order before the 18th Of that month.

THE DELUsIONs OF COTTON.

The Savannah (Ga.) News has conuived
to compress into the following short paragraph
a large number Of the errors and delusious of
the cotton kingdom:
"Our merchants complain of tho hardship
of having to pay per ceut. premium for gold
with which to pay duties on their imports. By
q tabular statement published in the New
York papers, it appears that upwards Of
$l9,O0O,0 900 in specie has been received in this
country from England within the last three
months. Now, it is fair to set down at least
two.thirds Of this amount Of specie to the &C.
count Of the cotton expectation from the South
to England. If this specie is in return for our
cotton, will any one inform us why large por-
ton Of it does not find its way South2 Why
is it that our banks who control the cotton,
have not an abundance Of specie with which to
enable our merchants to pay their duties
Will some Of our merchants who are familiar
form US why, with the immense influx Of specie
from Europe, it commands premium of 5 per
cent. in Savannah"
The News supposes that the cotton which
goes to Europe, is the property of the South
ern planters, which is very great mistake.
They raise it generally upon the strength Of
advances made by commission houses opera.
ting with Northern or European capital. But
whether so raised, or raised by the independent
means of the planters themselves, it ceases to
be their property after they sell it. Very little
cotton is ever shipped to Europe on Southern
account, but the crop is bought up at the
Southern seapors by the agents Of Northern
and European merchants and manufacturers.
And when it is sent abroad, it is not the cotton
of the South, any more than the palm oil which
is sold in Liverpool, is the property of Africa.
1t has been already purchased and paid for,
and its proceeds belong to the new owners.
The specie recently imported from Europe,
is imported at the North, and remains there,
simply because it is the return for Northern
property, cotton, naval stores, provisions, &C.,
sold abroad. Gold and silver, like other arti.
cles, are only to be obtained by buying and
paying for them. If they ore deficient in the
Contedeaacy, the remedy is to produce more
and consume less, and thereby to change an ad.
verse balance of trade into favorable one. A
country, in which there is very little industry,
except the rude aud inefficient labor of negro
slaves, and which is burdened by large pop.
ulation of iders, cannot be expected to be very
rich.

REPOSE OUT OF THE UNION

To the suggestion that the slave States can
never reach "repose," until they desert the old
Union and Join the Southern Confederacy, the
Memphis (Tenn.) Bulletin makes the following
reply:
"If making the South one vast camp where
thousands of citizens are diverted from their
peaceful pursuits into the occupation of the
soldier; if 10 inaugurate a state of things in
which wars and rumors of wars continually
keep the public mind up to fever heat of ex-
element; if to derange and interrupt the natu.
raj flow Of trade and commerce, and live con.
tinually in the apprehension that it may be de.
stroyed by the precipitation of bloody civil
war; if to make an unnecessary revolution, in
the prosecution of which the bold, reckless, and
selfish, are likely to bear more sway than the
peaceful and the patriotic, in which the tribu-
nails OF reason and justice may be overthrown,
TO give place to the arbitrament of the sword
ifthese things be 'repose,' then have the seeded
States found it. 1t is, however, such repose as
may be found upon the thin crust of a slum.
bering volcano, with the heavings of its unrest
muttering audibly beneath it. God forbid that
Tennessee and the other border States should
ever seek such repose.'
This is the view taken by the sober and con.
siderate portion of our neighbors of Virginia
and Maryland. They know well what class it
is which comes uppermost in revolutionary
times; aud they have only to look at the Gulf
States, to be reminded of the danger to be
avoided. Brawling demagogues, loafers licensed
to plunder by their epaulsts ard feathers, and
the violent at the head of affairs, do not pre-.
sent an entertainment inviting to quiet people
anywhere.
