Objects OF LincOln's Naval En-
pCdftlOn.

Accounts from the North are very ex-
plicit I'm their admission of the objects of
the several expeditions of mixed charac-
ter, being fitted out for operations on the
Southern coast. One of these objects is
generally announced to be to seize and re-.
open to the commerce ofthe world leading
cotton port. 1t is recommended that
on the occupation of such port the com
manding general of the Lincoln force
should invite all "loyal' citizens of the
South to send their cotton tither for ship
mcnt, offering fifteen to twcntw cents n
pound for cotton and trying by all posi-,
bic bribes the attachment Of the planters
10 the Southern cause.
This commercial adventure strongly mr.
gcd by the New York papers in view of
the great decline in their exports. which
are scarcely on third more than at cor
responding periods in 1861. The Lincoln
Government must find an outlet for the
cotton. " does not occur to these theorists
that even the occupat IN of principle cot
port in the South would not advance their
scheme, and that planting interest of the
South could never be so,ucted to further

object OF the Lincoln Government, us far
