Why SHOULD TIE SouTn DE Co,t4EHcrALLY
SnErENDENT.-rrcvious tothe dissolution of
the United stntee, the :ahpual value of the
country was estimated at about $3.50, 900 ,Ooo
and OF this sum the South furn ished at least
$3.50, 100000 in cotton rice, sugar, tobacco, and
other products Of her luxuriant soil. She con-
sequently owned three. fourths of the inporta-
tion, and, rs the eGuvernnent was supported
solely by revenue accruing from duties on i'm
ports. she paid sixty out of the eight millions
dollars that was expended every year 10 Keep
in motion the pelitica1sm inery Of the na-
,ion. The North, with double the population
Of the Soath,' contributed outsone fourth, or
gave 20, ,oo0, 900. In other words, each man in
the South paid six dollars to every one paid by
each man in the North. This was an evil at.
tributable to political vassalage. but is .insig
n'ficant when contrasted with what our COM
mercial dependence coat Us. This, iucludinc
what was filchcd from us by Yankee maniac
ttnrers.. brokers, shippers. hotel Keepers and
merchants, has. been estimated by recent
writer, Of vast Information and intelligence, at
not less than $2l ,0OO, 900.

ABOUT FREMoNr.-Gen. Fremonts inten-
ton to appeal to Congress rather than to
Court of Inquiry, to vindicate his military
administration in Missouri, is decisive of his
unwillingness to subject himself to the test OF
facts. In that brawiing town meeting he will
be sure to find partizans who will be ready to
use him as weapon to beat the President
down; but as long as the latter IS, by the
Constitution, COMMANDMENT Chief of the
army, he will pay little attention to the cater
wauling which the California gang and their
abettcrs will make The truth is, Fremont is
played out and done for. His associations
have killed him; and from him other Major
Generals may learn this lesson that no man
can surround himself with such robbers as
had possession of Fremont in Missouri and
survive, after the facts are known. In his
case there was no excuse; he knew his gang
of old; he brought them with hinl he would
not part with tnem; hence, he must share
