Oottr1ral attn Statesman.
COTTON Is KING.

Cotton is King,
Tired Of her Queen,
Britain is seen
Gazing far Ger
To COlumbia's shore;
Where, lying prone,
Hurled from his throne,
Robbed Of his power,
Brought to his hour,
Changed to thing,
Lies the old King.
Cotton is King
And Albion's throne,
Now scarce her own,
Rocks in swing
Spun by the King
She in her pride
Was wont to deride;
Crying with scorn,
Lo the base-born
Have chosen the thing
Cotton for King /"
Cotton is King.
Let her beware
Lest, caught in snare
While she bends low
Homage to show,
Far DER the main
Should sweep the refrain,
j" Britain is down,
Robbed of her crown,
And the base thing
Cotton is King !"

1n-thess days Of .lisloyalty, treason and
secession, when every breeze that blows Is
freighted with rn1nors involving the per
unanence or the early overthrow Of thcFede-
raj Government, the best advice to be given
or acted upon, is the homely recommenda-
ton to ".keep cool" While we would not
make light Of the troubles that are upon
the country, and while We readily admit
that the crisis through which cur nation Is
passing is critical in the extreme, we neV-
ertheless urge our people not to be moved
by the thousand and one reports that are
constantly going out from Y Washington. As
a general rule these stories are entirely with
out foundation, coined in the fertile brain Of
sensation reporters; and even when they do
possess the color Of truth, the actual facts
are sure 10 be 50 greatly distorted and
1nagnified as, if credited at oil, to give rise
to the most erroneous conclusions The
better way is to receive them all with large
allowance and to be disturbed By none:
Whatever may be the upshot Of our pres
ent difficulties, the country can rest con
tent in the knowledge that m honest man
and patriot is at the helm, and that moth:
ing that can be done to save the ship will
its valuable cargo, will be left untried
Iefeyeybody, therefore, willie hoping 10,
4he best and being prepared for the worst

ANOTHER EEFECT.

There seams to be no end to the compli-
cations resulting from the action Of the Sc
ceding States Our. Washington cores
pondent directs attention m another col.
1r1n to the fact that inportations for the
Western States are likelyto be made ria
New Orleans instead Of New York, as
heretofore. The correctness Of his con-
.clusion,. is indisputable, provided the Fede-
raj Go4ernmentis is not able, from lack Of
the proper authority, to collect duties on
imports at Southern ports: Such result
Hpald prove highly detrimental to the
c4nmercial interests Of the lastcnamed
city, and would cripple the government by
cutting off the principal source Of its rev.
ennea.;:es lu,sie New York hiss heretofore been
vehement N opposition to the execution Of
the laws Of the Federal Government in the
seeding States. The diversion Of the lar
gest half OF: her trade 10 Southern ports,
will probably shed new light upon the
subject and lead to a change Of sentiment
on the subject. At all events, this and
other pressing subjects seem to demand IN
early meeting Of Congress.
, 1861-03-12
Extra Session of Congress.

The call for an extra session will depend T.
tirely upon circumstances Il, under the n
1ucement of low tariff in the Cotton 6 r
federacy, imports are heavily transferred to
New Orleans, our revenue would be SO atfac, cd
as to derange all the estimates, and compel toe
Immediate action Of Congress. II the dat .es
are collected at present, even with the mi:sp-
preparation Of those received. ut sout II m
ports, there would be no necessity for an extra
session. But the belief obtains that I: rge
portion Of foreign, trade will take The s,5,-tn-
ern direction under the:.1: low tariff, as the
Western consumption could thus be sur ,l;ei
far more cheaply than through Northern ports.
Congress adjourned without passing any law
authorizing the President, at his discretion, to
suspend or abolish ports Of entry, or wing
him power to collect the revenue on board
ship. His hands are tied, and IT the contin-
gency occurs which has been suggested, his
only relief will be through an extra session.
Although some Of the elections do not regu-
larly occur TIL August, Gen. Taylor found it
necessary to summon. Congress in May. #
the occasion should become urgent; that pre-.
cedent mny be fonowed.-N. Y.1Tl5un..
