A lonp continued blockade might by diversion of labor. and the investment ofcapita in other employ,nents so diminish the supply of the staple, as to bring ruin upon the interests of foreign count-e., which are deptndent upon that staple, for every laborer invested from the culture of cotton, four times as many elsewhere are forced to change their oecuva- ton.

 NASHVILLE November I9.-The Louisville Cou- Tier says: We have seen a gentleman from Bath county, Ky, who participated in the fight near r Piketon on the Sth. he declares from his own posi- tive knowledge there is not particle of truth in the federal report of the fight.
 The fight occurred at point on Biz Sandy call ed the Narrows, fifteen miles from Piketon where the kentucklans were concealed. When the fed erals reached an abrupt angle in the road, the Ken tuckanS opened a murderous fire upon them, which they kept UP for half an hour. The federals were signally repui6ed, and withdrew under cover of their artillery. The Kentuckians had five killed and eight wounded. A man who was sent, after the fight, to ascertain the ex tent of the enemy's loss reported 1t. by actual count, at two hundred and nineteen killed, and about one hundred and fifty wounded.
 WASHING TON, Nov. 12.-From officers who have arrived here, it is ascertained that reconnaissance by l6,000 men, was made at an early hour this morning, in southwestery direction from Alex andria. 2000 rebels arrived near Occokmack yes terday from the main body of their army.

MR. SPEAKER: The joint committee upon the penitentiary would respectfully report and represent that they repaired to the penitentiary on the lth of November, and upon examination found said institution in a prosperous condition; and that Mir. A. J. Ward, the contractor, engaged, authorized and required by an act of the last General Assem- by, to construct upon said penitentiary grounds an additional workshop, keepers house, and cells and apartments for female conyicts, and for the safe keeping, clothing, subsistence and humane treatment of the conviets thereof, for the term ol eight years from the date of said contract has nearly completed said work, which we find to be done, 1T q workmanlike and durable manner and of such material as contemplated by said act.
 In addition, the yard within the walls of sad penitentiary has been graded and gravelled, tend ing to the clevliness and he,lth of the convcts and much other valuable work has been done, not contracted for, and for which extra labor Mr. Ward claims compensation, all resulting to the con venience and health ot the prisoners and interest of the State; and would further report that he has sunk well fifteen feet in diameter and upwards ol sixty feet in depth, to be used as & reservoir fol water, in order to run machinery for manuiactur ing purposes.
 Your committee would state that the convict: seem to be in healthy condition, and that they enter upon their duties cheeruliy, good order pre- vai!s and the discipline adopted tends to tho nte rest of theconvlcts-safety of the institutions al of which clearly evidences to your committee th' unriyaled ability of the contractor to manage ane control such an inst!sutior.

 We have always heard it said that war times make hard times; while it is the ruin of many, the few are the gathers. We will allude, in ths first place. to the tanner of leather. The tanner knows our merchants cannot send off their beef hides to the north, and therefore they know that they can obtain the raw hides at their own price. We have not the least hesitation in saying that b2iore one year from now, that the tanners will fix their scheme to purchase the largest bect hides from dollar down to fifty cents, to twen- ty-tve cents per skin. Now, do they fall in the price of their leather and shoes? No. They have raised, in the last six months, enty five per cent. on ther leather, and thirty per cent their shoes. Can we stand this? Now, let us all fall to work, and tan our own leather. There is no ingenuity in the tanning business; any good farmer can tan his own leather, and there is no farmer but that wants leather, or less, even if he is not shoe maker. We will plan out means with less trouble and more suitable; say there should be tannery in every neighborhood in this county, and as many of the neighbors that would wish to join and dig large trough, at the most suitable plantation, and assist otherwise; and those that would not wish to join in, get their skins tanned on shares, and they can sell their leather on fair terms Have a trough for lime, or wood ashes will an- swer-ay the skin down, hair side up. cover with ashes, and so on until all the hides are in the trough, then fill the trough with water, and in nine days the hair will slip. With dull drawing knife or the back of it, slip off the hair, then soak the hides in clean water for nine days, they will then be ready for the bark. Every farmer can save tan-bark off his new ground, more or less, every spring two cords of bark would fill a very large trough. After the bark IS taken off the tree, scrape off the outside or rough bark then cut your bark twelve to eighteen inches long, cover the bot tom of the trough with the whole pieces of bark. and then the skins; 50 on until all are in the trough. We will tell you there is no difference between the whole faAes and the ground; it takes the whole year, at any rate, for leather to tau We have known il tried hundreds of times in the east, where tan-yards are seldom known Every spring they renew their tan-troughs; and all the hides will do for sole leather-they take it for that purpose, and the fney for upper leather And with drawing knife, We curry side of leather as well tanner, and dress it as we'll with block, with few peggs and hand mall, or flax brake or hempbrake, with little lard, in few minutes will be ready for the shoemaker, and will be just as soft and pliant as that of the tan-yard. c.
