The President elect left home Monday on
his journey to Washington. Arrived at In
dianapolis, it appears that be was enthusiast
ticslly received, and, being somewhat elated.
no doubt, INDUCED in little speechifying.
The telegraph furnishes Us brief, and very
confused, disptch touching what he said on
the subject which has alarmed 80 many Cruel
fed secessionists in the South, coercion. 1t
would seem, if the telegraph does him no in
Justice, that he would regard it coercion to
march an army into South Corolina, and
compel her to submit; bat, he does not IndI-
cate whether it is his intention to attempt
that Job or not We suspect, however, It Is
an undertaking for which he has no inelina-
ton. 1t would not pay. But" he asks,
IF the United States should merely hold and
retake her own forts and collect duties, or
withhold mails where they are habitually
violated, would any or all Of these things be
coercion or invasion. He does not deign TO
answer these interrogatories, but says he was
merely "asking questions for the audience TO
decide what was right and what was wrong
1t would have been more manly had he an
swered his questions, and let the country
know what he means to do He cannot re-

merchant in this city, requiring the payment
of duties there to the State. Under this ar

The Army is composed of IS regiments OF

Southern ReYenue.

A correspondent of the Charleston Mercury
says: ,-.a..
The Southern States now produce annual
ly for expectation 4,0O0,000 of bales of cot
ton, worth s2OO,0OO,O00. They produce,
moreover, in tobacco, hemp, naval stores,
lumber, rice, &C., at least $4,000, 600 more
for expor tation, making in all fully $780,
100000.
This produce when delivered in foreign
countries, with the expenses of transporta-
ton, insurance, commissions, &C., is worth
more than S26O, 100000; and being paid for
by foreign commodities of equal value, these
on arriving at our ports would yield, under
a duty of 10 per cent. ad Ualerem S26, 900 for
the support OF the government of the South
ern Oonfederacy. F ss4ri %
The writer supposes that the entire value
of the exports is to be returned in taxable
imports. If this system of barter and ex-
change is to prevail, where would the South
get its money to pay her hundred and thirty
millions of dollars per annum to the North
for food and articles required in house, keep
ing and farming? Gin. Com.
