From the following paragraph, which We
en- tract from one OF our exchanges, and from
other reasons, we are fully confirmed in tho
belief long entertained, that there can BE- no
earthly ground why bacon should not come
down in price. From all quarters OF the
South we have advices that greater ahun-
dance OF hogs have been raised this year than
usual, and, IT our citizens Will only do wha t
they have a perfect right to-to wit devise
some m cans TO relieve themselves from the
clutches of tie unhcly salt speculators
there will soon be q sufficient supply of nice
bacon in market to supply all dem is, and
st fair prices too:
Some people are talking about 81 hun
bred for pork. Are the people crazy or are
they determined to eat each other apr Hog
statistics show that we have "a superabun
dance of hogs in the South, and corn is album
dsnt and cheap. There is no honest reason
why the extortionists, even, should demand
over Us. Eight dollars will pay the farmer
handsomely-snd he who wants to live and
let live-who studies how little he can afford
to lake, In stead of how much he can make
the buyer pay. can atfJrd Ii at ~. "No hog"
ia the cry of the hog -feecer. Not 81, sir
hogs are plenty. You only want to get as
much gain for your meat as a patriotic phi-
lanthropist ought to ask. Isn't 1t sOg You
know 1T is. How do yoa expect poor people
to live? So you swim, do you care how many
sinkf Not you.

ADDITIONAL REPORT FROM THE
NAVY DEPARTNENT.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-The navy depart
ment, by able and experienced officers, has
carefully studied the whole line OF the coast
with view to making the best use of such
forces as it could secure The expedition was
planned before the meeting of congress, and
when that body placed the necessary funds at
the disposal of the department, active prepare.
tons were made. AS the cooperation of the
war department was necessary, other prelimi-
naries requiring time were in ispensable, so
that it was not till Monday, the 26th ult., that
the expedition sailed. The success is perfect.
and every anticipation of the department is
realized.
Among the papers captured was a press
copy from the late American consul at Rio
Janeiro, Robert G. Scott, giving list of all
the vessels leaving or to leave that port during
a month, with Il lull description of their
cargoes and destination. By this information
the rebel priyateers knews just when and
where to look for the vessels, and six named
in the list were captured. The report OF their
engineer in chief was also among the papers
1t states that all the good guns at Norfolk
are expended, and also the whole amount of
fuses.
Some hand made percussion caps were
found, and it was ascertained that the copper
had been stripped from one of their prizes, the
