will not be because they think they need one
but because they want to boast and enjoy tho
prestige of backing down the North.
Ill. No matter what may be the terms of new
Compromise or fx.up respecting Slavery In the
Territories, the naked fact that one is made the
essential condition of peace, will be trumpeted
through the South as the triumph Of rebellion.
"Tbey wouldn't give us this till we declared our
E" independence" will be the cry; but that
drought them to book" II, then, it were but
the most magnificent and matter of-course prop
osition respecting Slavery in the Territories that
vas insisted on as q condition Of peace, we
should strenuously object to it. The objection to
submitting to dictation of the policy Of the
Union by rebellion, is fundamental and invin-
chile.
Still, from tho moment Of the assemblage OF
Congress, the Bon. Woods aud Valandighams OF
the House will busy themselves with concOctlug
and promoting schemes Of asserted Compromise,
with view to parslyzing tho energies of the
10y al States and Strengthening the hands of the
rebels. il they succeed, rebellion will have been
consecruted as successful mode Of recovering
whatever was lost by political defeat, and the
Spanish American republics will have become the
patterns and precursors Of our own future career.
Need We add that that career must tend rapidly

COTTON IN NEW JEnSEY.

The farmers of Salem County. New-Jersey, are
at this moment undertaking TO raise cotton--no
great number of acres, but still to raise cotton.
At the commencement Of the Revolution, all that
region of New -Jcrsey raised cotton. Delaware
and Maryland did the same. No one then con.
sdered it an absurdlty, though few Will now
consider it otherwise. We revive the curious
fact that all that region grew cotton enough for
its own wants. SO far ahead Of Georgia was it
that in 1883 one of the largest growers in that
State wrote 10 Philadelphia for gins such a.
were then in common use there. He writes;
81 will thankfully pay whatever the cost may
"be. am told they make them that will clean
from thirty to forty pounds Of clear cotton
"per day. and upon very simple construction
Georgia nabobs looking for instruction 10 the art
Of cotton.erOwing TO the sand.pipers Of New
Jersey! How extensively this production went
in New-Jcrsey there arc no means Of ascertain
ing. In l7S5, Philadelphia exported twelve bags
~ Liverpool, but in l792 jays treaty with
England stipulated that no cotton should DO i'm.
ported from America, so little Roadway had been
made in the cultures; but tue Senate refused to
ratify the prohbtory article. We may smle ut
these attempts, whether past or present. at cot
ton.growing in New-Jersey Should the latter be
successful, the world VIII doubtless hear Of them.
But there are really but few great indigenous
staples. Ohio raised 100000 pounds of tobacco
in 1910, and nearly 100000 in 1850, while in
1859 her crop amounted to $4,000 hogsheads,
which commanded third more money than the
same grades produced on tho time-honored tobacco
fields Of Maryland. New-Jersey has accom-
p shed some wonders in her day, but tho cotton
staple has probably clipped permanently from her
grasp.

MAJOR WINTHROP.

The painful rurnor Of the death OF Major me
odors Winthrop 10 confirmed by our dispatches
to-day. To the private grief brought by TINS
event upon O very large circle of friends we are
permitted only to allude but it is entirely proper
to say of one who was as yet but little known
to the public that the country has lost in hun
another young soldier who, had he lived, was
sure to have served her with unusual fervor and
ab lily. Mr. Winthrop by nature and by educa-
ton was endowed to high degree with the
qualities which make tho successful soldier
Extensive travel in the wilderness, both in North
aud South America, had made him hardy
campaigner; the habit of facing danger, JOlned
to a natural fearcssuess, gave him presence OF
mind and Goodness in peril, for the want oil
which many brave man has lost battle; and
these qualities were backed by grea. energy
and pcrsistency of purpose. His nen'al powers
fortified tdese moral traits making altogether
character which would undoubtedly have proved
their value in the lie he had chosen. and chosen
from very deep convictions upon the prihciPieS
involved in the struggle.
Mr.. Winthrop joined the eth Regiment two
DAYS before it WINS ordered to Washington. De-
t.rmined to serve through the war, be sough,
other duties rather than return with his Regi-
ment, and was made Aid aud Military Secretary
to Gen. Butler. The service he was on when he
fell mortally wounded was, we suppose, entirely
