No Compromise.

The following memorial has been prepared for
signature by some Of the sound Republicans of New
York:
To The Hon. the Senator's and Representatives Of the
United States, IN Congress assembled:
"WHEREAs, 1t is not only incompatible with
honor and patriotism, but cOwardly and base, for
Republicans to surrender under the pressure Of Sc
cession aud secession threats; and Whereas they
have done no wrong, but have in the last election
succeeded by constitutional means, by addressing
the ghtened reason and conscience Of the people,
in view of long years of misrule and rapaciiy Of
corrupt party and Administration; and GhersG', 1t
is incumbent upon all good citizens to maintain the
supremacy of the Constitution and the laws, We the
undersigned, CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES do
respectfully, but earnestly and firmly, recommend
to our Senators and Representatives in Congress,
and all others in authority, TO STAND BY THE Con-
sTITUTloK AS Is, AND THE GOVERNMENT or THE
COUNTRY, and TO MAKE NO COMPROMISE WHAT
EVER"
This expresses the feeling of true Republicans
everywhere Persons wishing to attach their names
to it, will find an opportunity of doing so at the

The Washington correspondent of the New York
Express writing under date of the 18th INST gives
expression TO the following clarifying sentiment.
As the Express is known to be the leading organ OF
the Fillmore Wings in the city of New York. the par
agrsph is significant:
The probable decision of Tennessee against hold
ing Convention is the subject of great rejoicing
with the Union delegates from that State and by no
one more than Senator johnson. After being for
thirty years the most violent opponent of the Wing
party in Tennessee, Mr.. johnson had recently been
universally welcomed to their ranks by the Old
Wings of that State. He will act hereafter with
John Bell Merdeth P. Gentry, Mr.. Nelson, Mr.. May
nard and others of his old opponents.

There is apparently large decrease in the re-
cept of cotton but this is owing entirely to the de-
hciency in the crop. While the total receipts this
wear at all the ports, 2,543,536 bales against
8.lll. 4O8 for the same date last year, showing
falling off of SCI, S72 bales the diminCtion at
New Orleans is only l72 004 bales Two facts in
connection with the cotton trade of this year are
sufficient to upset all the sPeculations Of papers
like the Tribune and its imitators. The first is,
that while the stock on hand at New Orleans, Feb
mary 9th. 1860, was 539, 666 bales, on the same
dsv of this year the stock on hand vas only Sl9,-
sos bales This certainly does rot confirm the
idea that cotton cannot be shipped from New Or
leans or that cur customers are less ready to buy
than they formerly were.
The other fact is tact while the imports OF specie
IN TO date this year are ST. 100000, last year
for the same time they were not S5,QQOUOO mus
the present condition of affairs, the prospecting
separation and the actual separation, have poured
into cur vaults a golden flood, instead OF Empower
ishng US, and depriving us of the means OF dlspo-
sing of the products of our industry. The immense
increase in the receipts of flour and corn Is another
suggestive fact which we commend to the attenuon
of our readers 1t shows that, If the present rela
tons of the two actions have any effect at all on
the destination of Western produce, that enect is
not by any means unfayorable 10 us
In the meantime we are perfectly Wiling lor Tue
Northern people to indulge in the innocent amVse'
men of trying to persuade themselves that they are
much better off without US. 1t certainly doesnt
hurt rs, and 1t may prove consolation to Them In
the forlorn condition to which they viii soon be re-
duced
