Paixhans and Dahlgrens. zonayes and Flying
Artillery Dragons and Infantry are useful in war;
| The South understands this, and is acting on
that understanding. But, while these are pre-
pairing, "a fierce battle is already going on--a
battle in which we have much to gain and but
little to lose, battle Of edgers accounts current
and bills receivable, fought ii counting rooms in
bank parlors, and across the counters Of brokers'
shops, the Killed and wounded in which are spoken
of as follows in the New York Day.Book of a re-
cent date
All New York is failing. The suspensions and
failures for the past few days have been fearful,
and the war promises to bankrupt every merchant
in New York. The retail business is as bad off as
the wholesale. Nobody is purchasing anything,
The foreign bill market continues very dull and
heavy.
The following is a imperative statement Of the
York for the week ending April ~:
Entered Al lie pc sI.os.4Ss s3a3,06l
The imports Of dry goods this week are very
small probably the least reported for many years.
Well may Mr.. Lincoln ask, What will become
my revenues ~
In another issue, the Day-Book says that there
s. have been over 200 failures in New York since
the ed April, and within the last month not less
than 800. Real estate has sale at any price and
rents are comparatively nominal Total bankruptcy
stares all in the face, and starvation will become
q daily visitor to the abode of the poor.''
1t is hardly TO be wondered at, that such devel-
opments should be distasteful to those whose
weakness they betray and whose speedy downfall
they foreshadoH. Accordingly, in the last number
of the New York Evening Post that has reached
us, we see sharp protest from a writer who con
cludes with the inquiry: Is it any particular OBJ
jeet to show the Southern regulators ho,o disas-
trously taeia, rebellion affects Northetsa credts.'
The writer in the Evening Post need not have
worked himself into passion in consequence of
these developments. We Of the South knew,
months ago, what would come to pass in the
North, within Q given period after our withdrawal
from a union that had become as odous to US as it
was oppressive. But we did not expect to see
quite speedy an exhibition of utter insolvency.
We thought they might possibly hold out until fall
Then, when their import trade, which has made
them prosperous and mighty, was diverted into
other channels, we expected they would go to the
wall with crash unparalleled in the history of
commercial cities. However, according to the
way they have commenced it is reasonable to in
fer that they will all be g. fat broke " before the
advent of autumn. Well, "it's none of our fu-

An Eve 70 E20YalfT.

In recent message TO the South Carolina
legislature, Governor Pickens takes a most
gloomy view Of rffairs in the South and makes
this most remarkable admission "If we fail,
then there will be DO hope for an independent
and free republic, and the public mind will de-
spOndingy turn TO the stronger and more fix
ed forms of the Old World"
4 statement like this will surprise no reason
able observer i'll the northern States. When Mr..
Russell, i'll his first letter from South Carolina
alluded to the prevailing fee ling in favor of roy
atty, there were many indignant and sarcastic
denias by the leading South Carolina journals
Now, we have the statement over again /; but it's
author is the chief OF the conspi ators, and not
correspondent OF a newspaper. ''The public
mini, says the governor, twill despondingly
turn to the stronger and more fixed forms of the
Old World" These stronger and more fixed
forms imply monarchy, and arlstocracy, a
standing army, and a despotism necessarily
crushing, because based on a system of com
palsory labor Such men as Governor Pickens
are alistocrats by education. Their associations
are exclusive; and into all the ways OF life they
carry an arrogant pride which nothing can
satisfy, That they should wish, therefore, to
have system of government which t1atters
their pride by invidious distinctions OF rank,
and gratifes their love of power aud splendOr,
is very natural and seems to have been the an
imating thought Of this rebellion.
Therefore, how true it is, that, in fighting this
fight, we are in the holy cause of liberty. We
are interposing between the deluded people of
the South and cabal Of desperate men, whose
anlbtion.cau only be satisfied by crown and
Il throne in Richmond The people North and
South desire no stronger and more fixed forms
of government than those guaranteed by the
Constitution of the United States,
