gems; who think that New Orleans money is good
enough to Eve on in Northern States and Europe,
aud that it may answer for the meridian of Tennes-
see, from which State many real estate holders
now date their citizenship in the Southern Con:
federaey.
We expect tomorrow to have to talk of the ar.
rival of another distinguished citizen of New York,
who owns large possessions in our city Whether
he will report himself citizen of Nashville, Tenn,
or not, we cannot say till after his arrival. But
somehow or another these Iennesseedras have LETT
their families in Pennsylvania, New York and New
England States. We are asked if three dollars VIII
make Standardization, or rather whlfeWasn OUT
Northern friends before the Receiver under the
seauestration and coniscation act. All that we
have to remark on is that the talk is strong against
pseudo citizens.
The main points and test the question are sim
ply these: If parties who are coming back, VINO
have heenabsent for years are SO sound and strong
for the South why have they not been here before,
when every Southerner was wanted, and to aid IN
the glorious cause? Have any of these parties adj
yanced dollar to the Southern cause? Did they
take any of the Confederate loan? Have they
given dollar to any Of the numerous associations
for the benefit of cur volunteers We opine that
not dollar will be found to their credit. The talk
is, that they will be very liberal now but If the
Hessians had obtained the advantage and wiped the
South out, that all these parties would have been
found to-day at the North. We expect to have
some further talk on this subject, and in the mean
time we have to inquire, Who is to pay for heat
ing the poker2n Who are to pay Southerners for
the property destroyed negroes stelen and all the
acts of vandalism committed by the Hessians, if
the amount is not made up by retaliation on these
Northern citizens property? If, as the case is,
former Southern citizens have thought that North
ern society, snobbism and funkeyism were more
congenia to their feelings and have for years been
assoeating with these kindred feelings, it is moth
ing more than the fortunes of war should they now
lose all their possessions in the South. Many poor
Southerners are now suffering from the despotism
and tyranny of Northerners with whom our quon-
dam citizens have been associating with for years.
We merely repeat the talk that the heating of the
e1'pokern has to be paid for. 'a-a .-
There have been many remarks about the ad-
vance in the necessares of fe Coal, for instance,
has advanced nearly one hundred per cent. This
can be well avoided by our citizens just going to
work and encourage the Ouachita Coal Company.
Coal from the mines of this Company can be de-
ivered on our levee at thirty cents per barrel If

cannot help it. We tell them where they can OBJ
tain the article at the foregoing price. Ten thou
sand dollars advanced will put our citizens in way
of obtaining an abundance of coal, independent of
England and the Hessian dominions of the North.
We are asked about the position of Tigre Island
near Berwick's Bay. There is large quantity of
coal at this point which the Hessans will be after
Moreover, this is a very important point for de-
fence. The talk is that this island requires the
care of the authorities, and at an early day. The
Hessans are preparing for an assault at every
point. II would be well for the authorities to order
back from Virginia two or three Of those well and
thoroughly drilled battalions of Louisanians, which
have been on duty since April last, on the York
town Peninsula.
