l. One well fed, well equipped, well appon-
ted brigade is worth TWO that are iii provided.
2 In active service, three men die of undue
exposure, bad food, and their own imprudences
where one is killed by shot or stab.
8. An easy, rational, nicely fitting uniform,
with warm, substantial blanket. broad soIed
boots or shoes aud good wooden socks, will
more conduce 10 efficiency in service than su-
periorty in weapons.
4. The ghtest possible head-covering, with
good look out for ventilation, Will add a
tenth to the distance regiment can march in
a day, while inSuring increased comfort.
5. A small cotton handkerchief, or half a yard
of the commonest sheetng, moistened with
water in the morning and again at noon, and
worn between the hat and the head, will pro,
tcct the soldier from sun-stroke and greatly
diminish the discomfort and fatigue of a hot
days march.
G. A fiat bottle covered with wooden cloth,
the cloth being moStened and the bottle filled
with water in the morning, will keep reasona-
bly, cool throughout a long, hos day
7. OF all vilIainous concoctionS, the liquors
sold by camp-follcwers are the most detestabIe
and dangerous They are more deadly than
rided cannon, and are sure to be taken when
they should not be. Every soldier who means
to do his duty to his country, should insist
that all vendors Of these poisons be dfummed
out Of the camp.

tatOn in hanging at the yard-arm a captain
who refused to blockade port in one OF the
Irish provinces, because he happened to have

cession once made is fatal to all military effec-
tiveness, and to all law, order, and discipline
in government We have partly recognized
it in the United States, and the demoralged
condition o: our army aud navy shows how
terrible in its effects the recognition has
proved.
The melancholy instance cited in the open.
ing paragraph is an acception to the general
role which has prevailed among those officers
who have abandoned our flag on grounds of
State allegiance. The case of General Twiggs
shows how closely these notions of honor are
allied with what every other civilized nation
on the globe calls treacherv. II honor com
pels an officer to Spurn his alIegisnce to the
GovecuHeut, it surely does net compel him to
remain at his post long after the conflict ne
tween the State aud nation has arisen to oh.
tain every secret which confidence can pro-
cure to paraIyEe the hand which has nurtured
him to draw his salary from the "tyran&ical''
Golfers OF the nation to live in apparent ale
glance until the moment Of action arrives, and
then cross over the Potomac and draw the
sword Of q traitor. So long as many of these
officers are permitted to live on half-pay with
out service. they are willing to receive their
pay aud waive the Immediate question of allie
glance, hut when the command OF duty comes,
they collect the arrears of their salary up to
date, plead their duty to their State, send in a.
resignation, and next appear at Fort Pckcns
or Fort Sumptcr trying to steal Government
FOR with stolen canuOn aud pfered powder.
We certainly do not condemn Il native OF
South Carolina for loving that State, any more
than We ceusnre ourselves for cheriShiug a
foadness towards dear old Pennsylvania. But
the soldier is the son of the nation. She is
bis military mother-and he owes her his life
aud sword. The rule recognizes 10 excep
tion aud can admit Of no deviation. To aban-
don the nGtion in its hour Of peril when it
needs all that valor aud skill can afford, is to be
guilty Of iDgratitule aud treason. The Great
Soldier OF the Age, whose loyal arm row
wieIds the sword of Washington, is an example
for all to follow Winfield Scott loves Vlr

giving his great mind to his country, even it

This falsehood is the topic of eight or ten tri-
rmphant editorials, which we have before us.
Here is mild specimen from !he respectable
columns Of the conservative Picayune:
" Disasters accumulate on the head of Lin
coin. The pillars upon which he rested for
support crnmhle away from beneath him. I'm
questionably his great moral reliance, among
many thousands Of his countrymen, has been

OF Winfield Scott. What Wellington was to

querer of Mexico refused to be Chief Consta.

We might elaborate this article by the pub

equally as offensive aud untrue as those quoted

readers, one OF the methods by which public
opinion is manufactured in the South On

THE SOUTHERN MIsTAKE.-The public four

with stuff like this below, which we cut fro2

The PANIC AT TEE NcITH-The heart Of the
phi!anthropist beeds aud sickens in contem-
plating the distress that exists among the peo
pie of the North Every day brings additional
accounts of the tremendous panic that is
sweeping the Northern cities. Stocks ars
going down operatives are turned out to stqrVe,
confidence is destroyed and business is paralyz-
ed. On every side may be seen the wide spread
ruin wich an infatuated people have brought
upon their own heads. Meantime there il
some distress in the South, but the people of
the Confederate States are generally comforta-
ble. They breathe fieer, and their proud necks
are more erect since they have parted company
with their traducers. We are sorry for the
true men in the North who a!G involved in dis
asters they could not avert. But let them
come South, find new fields for their enterprise
and mend their broken fortunes. We pity
while We deSpiso the poor dupes who now
mock at the calamity that robs them Of their
daily bread. Let them turn upon their be-
trayers. In snch f5ht our sympathies will
be with the hungry.
The culture of cotton requires O peculiar
combination OF heat and moisture, an even and
unform temperature. Sicily, Naples and
Malta produce about so 900 pounds annually;
small quantity is raised in Sardinia and Spain.
Asjatic Turkey produces about 100000
pounds. Syria might produce a considerable
quantity China does so, but consumes it ALL
India 100000 If we may believe reports,
most Of which is consumed at home. There
are six millions of aIiuYial soil in the British
West Indies where it can be raised. The
French receive from theirs about 100000
pounds, and a small quantity is raised in Sur
imam. In Africa, Egypt, Brazil, the culture is
increasing.

WHAT IS MARTIAL Law AT the present
crisis the significance of a term SO much used =,
aud with SO little accurate sense Of its mean
ing, becomes unusually important.
Bouvier defines martial law as "a cole eStab-
lshed for the government Of the army and
navy Of the United States" whose principal
rules are to be found in the articles of war,
prescribed by act of Congress Bat Chancellor
Rent says this distinction applies only to nsii-
tary law, while martial law is quite q distinct
thing, and is founded On paramount necessity
and proclaimed by a military chief.
Martial law is generally and vaguely held 10
be q suspension Of all ordinary civil rights
and process, and, as such, approximGtes very
closely to a military despotism.
1t is an arbitrary law originating in emer-
gen-ies. In times of extreme peril to thS
State, either from without or from within. the
puc welfare demands extraordinary measures.
Aud martial Law being proclaimed, signifies
that the operation Of the ordinary legal deays
OF justice is suspended by the military power.
which has for the time become supreme.

perilouS nature, such as now appear to exist in
Baltimore.
