New Article for n Bed.


We had an opportunity the other day of exam
ming model of the new Spring Bed, recently
invented by Mr.. Thomas Tolman, of Fitchburgh.
Mass, and which is so highly recommended by
those who have used it in Lowell, Nashua,
Fitchburgh, etc. 1t looks like first rate thing
1t is made somewhat on the principle of a pair OF
bellows--air tight at the bottom with the excep
ton of holes with clappers'' over them to
admit the air when the pressure is taken from the
top of the bed. When the pressure is again made
upon the top. by movement of persons sleeping.
the 'cappers" close and the air is forced out
through the upper part stufling" of the bed
which is porous, thus continually ventilatng il
and keeping it free from all impurities. The
uphostry is set upon spiral springs, braced so
perfectly as to render it impossible for them to
slip out of place and the filling is made of either
hair, moss, or prepared husks, as any one may
desire. 1t is certainly very perfect bed and its
invention reflects much credit upon the ingenuity
of Mr. Tolman.

A COMMERCIAL ntvoLr IN THE c0fToS

A COMMERCIAL ptvOLT IN THE COfTON
STATES.
There is certainly greet significance 10 the
proceedings Of the Southern Commercial
Convention, es reported TO US through the
Memphis papers A set OF resolutions OF
the usual degree Of violent hostility to the
north and demanding the enactment Of
prohbi.ory Legislation egsinst northern
trode, we're voted down, under cire6metsbces
which are declared TO mean that q recon.
struction Of commercial aud political relations
with the Notth-iB desired by the majority 10
that convention The Memphis papers
attach political sig nifcance to the event, and
occurring, as 1t does, simultaneously with the
issuing Of circular by Mr.. Memmuger on
the disposal Of the cotton crop, we take ii as
an omen OF good, pointing to return Of some
measure OF practical sense iD the conduct OF
southern affairs. Mr.. Memmiuger, secretary
OF such treasury as the confederates have, has
been earnestly appealed to to let the cotton
crop go forward to rpnrket. He answers 10 a
general circular that it caunot now be mo.
we'd, nor will the confederate government be
responsible for it Us 10 any degree the bclder.
The claim Of that government is stated to be
for certain share Of the money for which the
cotton shall ultimately be sold. All respon
sibiiity is dsclaimed oil idea OF advances on
the stocks the planters are compelled TO bold
is repudiated. MIR. Memminger will not pay
for the cotton, will not sell it, will not let the
planter move it, aud demands half its value 10
cash when il shnll be sold.
The lapse Of two or three more months oil
such coDstraint as this will bring out more
than one demonstration of political sgnif
caDce iD the south, however stringent the
exercise Of repressive power by the copfedc
rate leaders. The oppressed people will
complain before suffering the last extreme OF
want arising from the impossibility Of selling
their crops Commercial relations with the
north were of immense advantage to the
south, and this fact hus at last been nttested
by commercial convention there for the frs,
time ir history. We must remember tha,
never before has sny serious cons,ra;nt been
felt at the sooth 10 regard to realizing the
proceeds OF crop. This is the frs. time thu,
they could not go early everywhere aud
realize 10 cash. goods provisions, or whatever
else they desired, the whole value Of their
years production. The difference to them II
immense, and the pressure consequent ou six
months OF deficiency will drive them to some
very practical work within the next three
months. This demonstration in the conven.
tion is the first outbreak that has assumed 0
form TO alarm the confederate munsgers, bu,
1t will By no Inesns be the last.

rally on analysis of the rebel finances, which
is somewhat remarkable. The expenses of
the current year are set down at three hun
dred millions. To meet this there are ten
millions OF the eight per cent confederate
bonds--all that could be issued out of fifteen
millions; there is the produce loan, which, as
the candid editor declares, everybody except
two financial enthusiasts knows to be failure I:
there is direct tax, which "muy" yield fifteen
millions aud Il hundred millions of treasury
notes, tue issue of part of which has already
driven specie out of circulation. At the very
best there is deficiency of one hundred and
seventy, five millions to be provided and no
visible means FOR doing this. The inquiry is
therefore very naturally addressed to Mr..
MenmlDger, what he proposes to do.
I'VE have a circular issued on the l7th
instant, by the Secretary of the Treasury
under the rebel government at Richmond.
Mr.. Memninger, to the commissioners np-
pointed to receive subscriptions to the pro.
duce loan, in reply to what is evidently cry
for relief from the cotton planters. 1t would
appear that the planters, seriously oppressed
as they are by the blockade, have appealed to
government either to purchase the cutire
cotton crop OF the year, or TO make an advance
upon it's hypotbecated value. To both Of
these proposals Mr. MemmInger declines to
accede, remarking ut the same time that
they demand that new government, yet
struggling Tor existence, should reject all
lessons Of experience, md undertake thBt
which no other government, however long
established, has yet succeeded in ellecting !"
aud !he experiment he says, is proposed
moreover, to government engaged in q
gigantic war, whose enemies are in possession
OF all the munitions aud workshops that have
been collected during forty five years oc peuce
chose fleets have been built up at the Joint
expense OF both north aud south who, with
sll these on hand, are compelled to spend
nearly ten millions per week to carry on the
war; and "can we" SAYS Mr. Menninger,
expect TO contend with them ut less than
half that expenditure ?" lie reminds the
planters, further, that it is not their notes
aud bonds, nor their produce, which the
government requires, but money which is
essential to its existence. lie declares the
experiment OF increasing the liability, and
thus damaging the credi! Of the government,
Is too dangerous u one to bs tried for the
futheruuce Of any interest, even that of
cotton; and he very plainly tells the planters
that they mnst seek relief alseWh here. Let
the planters, he gays divert their labor from
cotton, and take measures for the supply of
winter crops. He recommends the increased
cultivation of grain and other agricultural
products, and points to the mouey capital
in banks aud private hands as ready re-
source.
