THE BULLETIN ON MEMPHIS
TRADE.

The orgsn Of the Uniohists at all haz-
srds, a few days since, repTobated an article
which appeared in our columns, because it
argued that the material interests Of Tennes-
see would be promoted By a course Of policy,
which in tie sane art Gle was shown to be
alone consistent with her honor and her dig
atty. The Baltsiin then was disposed to cen
sure any argument which would appeal to
sslf-interes now, it thinks that the distin-
, giished statesman, Col. ToFP, whose views we
shall take orcasioa to dissect at some future
day" has spiked that cannon" and makes
t1s direct appeal;
Hence We say to all lot owners, owners Of
t1uses to rent, insurance Offices, merchants,
sud an otbsrs-day-lght is dawning upon you.
E.u will soon see adegree Of prosperity never
befar- dreamed of-prOUidea, you remain in

TIE basis upon which this appeal is predi-
cstsd, is he assumed one, that Toe ports al
New urIesns, Mobile, and Charleston, viii be
cio@sd, ss exporting cities, and the cotton viii
aHren up be river to Memphis, and thence
rsu TO Philadelphia, Baltimore, and New
g. rk. for the reason that vessels csnnot get
sfal clsarsuees In Southern ports. Is not
10 Bali ffa aware that vessels are daily
feared at New Orleans and Savannah, By the
collectors o. enstums in those ports? and that
Foreign vessels a. Charleston are loaded with
o,fton, and leave the port under papers issued
BY The state authorities? If the Ballots feels
any apprehension as 70 the manner in which
these acts o. The state Of South Carolina viii
Be regsrded By forsign governments, we refer
bun TO an article appearing in OR issue Of
ys terday, &c which Lord Lyons is said to
hzve instructed the British consul at Charles
tor to a1oad British vessels at that port with
cotton, and let them sail" And further, the
Buliaia is well advised Of that which The whole
e5uu'ry hss known.for many weeks, that The
Adm nistration win al once recognize the
southern confederacy which viii be formed on
Moadsy next BY the convention at Montgom-
cry, an wis withdraw every obstruction BY
tbe Federal Government, TO the free
OF the Southern States. One Of the first acts
Of legislation BY the southern Congress and
executive will be The creation and appointment
or custom houses, and officers to I'll them,
whose official acts viii be recognized through
cut the civilized world.
A recent number Of she n. 7. TribEAe (22d
inst contains an editorial entitled "FaDora
DE and Nopd Rssuis Of Secession" which 10

the BuHeiia. GEEELET says that it viii soon
b. Necessary to blockade the ports Of the ssce-
ding S atss. CAS- soon as this is done, the
whole trade n those States will be fhrown
back unon the northern and northwestern
railroads; shd tbs business now transacted a.

ssraunaa. VIII Be transferred to Philadelphia, /
New York, Boston and to Baltimore, If the
fools do not succeed IN getting a majority 10
Maryland for secessiou.1 "H MARYLAND keeps
quiet, Baltimore will soon receive an Impulse
ia her trade sueh as has not been known for
years" Thus GREELEY holds out to Balu-
more the sane bait 10 induce her 10 Be ray the
honor Of Maryland, thar The Bulletin does to
fbe merchants Of Memphis.
TIE Trbuae continues at some length in a
spirit Of sxultation over The supposed destrue-
ton Of the commercial ~iutsress Of the south.
ssfrom which The free States will reap a neh
harvest /" and says "To see the South sritFer
