SEIzURr or SULrHUR.-1he Confederate Govern
mtnt has teen informed that the Governor Of Louis
ua had taken possG sion OF 600 tuns Of sulphur in s
Sla'e, for The purpose OF making gunpowder for the
army. IL belonged TO private individuals, and was
obtained by them for the purpose OF being used In
reining or manufacturing sugar. # il sai The sugar
PLANTERS reGuefs will sVeT Considerable incohye-
Dience in equenoc al tis seizure hut Gov Moore
deemed the necessities a the State ard Confederate
States Of more importance tLasthe convenience OF
individuals This Gal phur IL sufficient to mako 500
tul of gunpowder. Sulphur il Article OF lepota-
ton and cohtrabnud of II cannot be obtlned In
tbis country, except by making Il from the sulphur cts
of iron copper other minerals, or from he phur
springs. The process would be oAce,dingly tedious,
bborie-Hnd expensive, OF making sulphur iom these
substan :, or from sulphur water There y not 70
much ditculty in obtaining saltpeer, for there are
caves Of nitrous earth ia most of the Confederate
States. SO that if we have sulphur enough there
need be no fear o. abundant supply OF guulowdcr
for the most extensive or prolonged war.
