The Government has been too lenient, too mdul-
gent TO these people. Its course now in thus
striking traitors right and left is infusug new
confidence in it. We were getting dangerously
impatient at the hnpuuity permitted to them
And mob rule would certainly have been inaugu-

the work. As to the REASONABLE newspapers.
their doom is sealed. If the Government does
not crush Them the people will assuredly tear
them out. The thing is rapidly becoming Cpl
demic. The sooner this crushing is done, the
sooner will the public mind be quoted. There

Sickness must, therefore, be prevailing ct the

Some of these have paid up punctually, and can

There is no cotton arriving, Of course The
stock on hand is very small. Some of the man.
ufacturers who had cotton but no sale for goods,
have sold to others who had contracts They
bought at - and cold at Is TO 10, thus realH-
ing a better profit than they could have done
had they manufactured their stocks. On the
ether hand contractors for Government supplies
will rot make tho profits they expected. as tho
raw material has risen too much. Those who
had the cotton on hand when making their con.
tracts will be safe enough. This shifting OF
stocks from one to the other has the effect Of
closing many factories aud discharginS many

Among the masses there is great inquiry for
tho new Government securities, and when they
can be readily had they will be absorbed in
large amounts. The quantity Of idle money here
is very great not only of our own, but from

at a premium. As to our own local frst-cass

We look upon 1t aS nero question OF time and
money, both Of which we have in abundance.
But we want no peace short of Rebellion laying
down its arms and giving up its instigators TO
justice. Our only dough faces here are the

pestilent.
