matters become really settled with YOU, so
that shipments Of British manufactures could
be sent to your port without risk of seizure,
write me, US many houses here will cease their
agency at the North, and establish them at
the South-on what time can GOODS be sold
IN your city, and is there capital there su;li-
cicnt for the trade? which will certainly
largely increase under the influence of your
modcntc tariff.
LISLhluoL, March o, 1861. 1.-,rho feeling
here iffavor Of your Southern Conlcdcmcy
is gathering strength. The scale of duties
which is laid down in the Northern Tariff, has
completely alicnatcd the smypGthics of the
| entire mcrc,ntilc community this side of the
Atlantic, and all are now wishing success to
the seeding States, whose policy is announ-
ccd Us likely to be free trade with al the
world ~
LIvERrooL, March o, 1SG1-Your polit-
icai remarks are interesting | conceive the
Northern Tariff almost prolHbitoy; it is an
attempt to make the whole country contrib
ute to tic manufacturing region, and ! can
not see how the other Southern States can con
sent TO live under such dishonest lax Ihcy
must soon come to realize they have no sym,
pathics with the North. Your cause gains
favor daily, as hope it docs in the Border
States Manchester is going for you heart
and soul Self interest will insure your re-
cognitun.

HE RoSrEcT IN TIE NoRTII.--l find
that II Is the general belief OF all who will
venture to look the matter In the face that
the country generally is to be supplied with
imports irom foreign countries through ports
OF seeded States, and which pay duties in
thosc ports, and enrich the cXchcqucr Of the
IohleGeratc Htntes at the expense OF the
treasury OF the Federal Government The
tiue question to be iuct rs not whether the
Federal Govemmcnt can collect revenue in
! &c %'''s o. ~ Mnnfh"rh Confederation: bnt
whether 1t can collect revenue anywhere. 1t
cannot be denied that public anxiety concern
ing tine condition of the country has been
greatly increased thc past week; that the ap-
Prehenslon$ OF terrific war has quickcned ;
th"t the Onon men OF the Southern border
States nave become discouraged and will have
soon TO yield to the pressure of sympathy
%'th she seeded states that commerce is
tmat the business interests of the North are
to be moro than ever Depressed ard that the
Government of the Confederate States is re-.
solved and determined and fully preparcd to
attack this city (Washincton) with an over.
whcmng force upon the, first indication of
the intention of Lincoln to carry ont thc mol.
icy of force which they believe his lnauoural
to foreshadow. Everv Southern State is pre-
pared to unite with the Government of the
Confederate States in war against the Lin
coin Government if the luttor really attcmpt
coercion or semi. coercion. Military men saw
that, for tho purpose OF carrying out cocs.
