RsE~The comet which Ia, been noted
for some months by astronomers, appeared
10 the northwest on Tuesday evening in
all the splendor and majesty OF these &C
lcstial phenomena which the Creator has
eaused at times to appear within the range
Of mortal vision. To some it is no doubt
dreaded sign" but all such fears may
be dispelled, as beyond the disturbance OF
the atmosphere around the earth, there is
no more danger from comet than from
the moon. In support of the theory of at
mospheric action, it is somewhat remark
able that the cold winds with which We
have been 50 often and suddenly visited
for some months have all blown from tht
direction of the comet.

initiating this gigantic rate Of increase. and that
it is political impossiblty for any sings country
to maintain an immovable monopoly Of the pro-
duct But they arc not the loss solcitOus to hurry
up tho day Of emancipation. England is now
shipping millions of silver to India for the pur-
chase of cotton, and the fact is established that
she has never held cut her purse with this OBJ
ject without commanding all she wanted. She
says that cotton can be grown as readily as
wheat if money be at hand to pay for it; that
there is not on hour TO be lost in providing
against the tremendous danger; that the very ex-
istence of 100000 of her people is Of stake;
that she is holding on by single anchor, and
the strands of the cable seem actually parting;
that Disunion will be followed by industrial dis
organization, and that her manufacturing interest
would be crushed by the catastrophe. These are
all strong figures, strong modes selected by DIFF
ferent pens for giving expression to common
conviction. They show the keen apprehension OF
danger which now agitstes the English mind.
1t would seem from this data that the Ameri.
can cOtton-growers have sent business OF
5000, 900, 900 per annum on begging tour
among the nations. We know they did not mean
to do SO. but they have done it, nevertheless
One nation will pick up million Of this nagniti-
cent business another will appropriate ten, another
fifty. The share Of India will tend strongly to con-
soldate British power in that country. The gains
which Africa may make will be the means Of in
PRODUCING Christianity aud civilization to millions.
We may live to see cotton railroads running
from Lagos to her interior cities, and cotton
steamboats, on her magnificent rivers Cotton
has done all this in India and America. Its
kingdom is not of single country. We said
our cOtton-growers did not mean TO do this thing
But their insane conduct has efectualy staggered
British confidence in their stability. 1t needed
some such folly TO destroy it; but having been
destroyed, no temporary reconstruction can re.
store it. The first excitement Of alarm may
have subsidized, but it is evident that the deter
nination to shake US Of is becoming stronger
than ever. England is tired of paying so many
millions annually for the support Of Slavery.

greater exactions. If we. show a disposition to
pay that price, viz, no coercion, no collecting
the revenue, no holding Of our Notifications, and
all kinds of concessions on the Slavery question,
il win not be bong before we are warned by
Virginia not to enlist another man, not to put in
commission another ship, not to concentrate
another regiment, under the penalty of another
stampede of the Slave Border States. II, then,
we have, or expect to have, anything that can
cided, energetic, effective action But if we in
tend deplorable series Of back-outs and craw-
fishing, the sooner we acknowledge the Southern
Confederacy, and Try to make terms with il, the
better for oil concerned.

The Montgomery Daily Advertiser is endeayor'
ing to heal the dissensions which already afiiict
the Southern Confederacy. Great complaint, it
seems, is made of the arbitrary conduct of the
leaders of the Rebellion, and in many quarters
their authority is already treated with contempt
Against this The Advertiser strongly protests
With charming GOODNESS it appeals to the loyalty
of the people: "We hold that it is not only the
duty, but the proud privilege of every true
"citizen of the Confederate States OF this juno
"ture, to testify, by word and by deed, to his
glove for and loyalty toward the Government
"under which We live. This feeling Of loyalty
81 ,chat is essential to the preservation and neN
" being Of epery Government. The ramt Of 1t
" broke up the old United States Government for
I" the Puritan fanatic 10 incapable Of any other
motive than selfinterest, and loved the Union
"only because it fed aud clothed him, while it
"was impossible for the people Of the South to
be devoted in heart to Government that was
gradually being perverted to their destruction"
The force of even slaveholding impudence can
certainly never go further than this. This talk
Of the excellence and necessity Of loyalty while
engaged in open rebellion can only be equaled
by canting about Liberty while striving to uphold
Slavery, and about democracy while living on the
earnings of others.

Elisha C. Crosby of New-York has been ap-
pointed Minister to Guatemala Gen. Splnner's
confirmation, az United States Treasurer, is
opposed n the Senate, on the ground that he has
said in Conversation that if Virginia secedes a
seryile war will know in that State. II is added
that he also said he would be willing to head an
insurrecton of slaves, which is doubtless an ex-
aggeratiop. His confirmation b., the Senate will

Our Charleston Correspondent writes to us
that the shot fred the other day at Fort Sumter
was the result of deliberate plan to try the
temper of Major Anderson, and that the state
ment that it was done accidentally is On unblush-
ing lie. We may add that our correspondent Is
not likely TO be mistaken in this matter.

Our Secession correspondent at Montgomery
teegraphs that the South will not be satisfied
till she has convinced the North that she can
maintain an independent Government. This
notion will strike the North as more childish
than manly. No one doubts that the South can
maintain an Independent Government, as Wen as
Hayti, Honduras, Nicaragua, Ashantee, Dahomey,
and fifty other insignificant nations, which main
tain their Independence because none Of the
Great Powers think il necessary to deprive them
of it. But the point to be considered by the
South is, whether contemplate independence
as tenth.rate power, existing by sufierance and
maintaining Government at an inordinate e1-
pense, is q better position than that she lately
occupied as an equal member Of one Of the first
nations in the world, and one which il soon 10
be the greatest.
According 10 our correspondent, the new Con-
federacy Is graciously willing to admit Northern
States into its fold, and expects, within year,
to See New-York applying for admission. When
her application reaches Montgomery, we hope
our correspondent will DO prompt to inform US
of the fact.
