The MAINE LAW wESpoRcED.-Betweeu twelve
and one o'clock last night, the Provost Guard
thought they heard q noise indicating viola
tlon Of the liquor law within house known
as the Clinton Hotel, No. 429 Pennsylvania
avenue, and upon gaining an entrance, found
their surmlses TO be correct. The parties In.
side were arrested, amcng whom was Colonel
Of regiment: he wa, in full dress, and much
intoxicated. He refused 10 90 to his room
aud was taken to the guardhouse.
All the liquor discovered was thrown Into
the street. Champagne, Rhine aud other wines
together with good old Bourbon aud lager
beer, filed the gutter, while not drop was
left iueide. One Of the guard attempted to
drink some Of the wine rather than destroy Il
but this was pcrsmptorily forbidden, upon pain
Of arrest, and the dearly beloved beverage wa.
poured into the gutter, where so many of II.
lovers have heretofore reposed in blissful un,

500 were American. On the let Of December,
the stock OF cotton was stated at 592, 900 bales.

can cotton.
A. the last advices cotton was ten cents low.
er in Liverpool than 10 New York. That is a
difference too great to be Of long continu-
ance.
The consumption Of cotton, by the English
manufacturers, Is estimated at from twonty to
twenty-five thousand bales per week, and the
appearances are that 1t will rather diminish
than increase. The arrivals from India con.
tinue heavy, and the period when cotton will
be exhausted, is regarded as indefinitely post

The financial position Of the National Gov

obtain money by loans, at any rate Of interest
which the country either will, or ought to pay.
Nobody will think OF borrowing at the enor.

for the past year. No nation was ever rich
enough to carry on the Improbable business
of war at such rates Of interest. 1t Is not q

There Is nothing to be done but to issue
Government paper, not redeemable, but re-
ceivable for the public dues, and trust to for

AFFAIRS IN KENTruY.-From the Louisville

Humphrey Marshall, at the head OF $500
troops, has arrived at Prestonburg, and Is
fortifying the town against any attack. 1t is
reported that Marshsll will remain ct bis
present stand point, and after throwing up rc
doubts and placing thereon batteries, will then
march toward Asysville and the Ohio river.
He expects reinforcements 10 the number Of
ten Thousand men, immcd cd;ately, which will
swell his command to nearly seventeen thou
sand troops. Gen. Buell. has ordered Col. Gar
Geld, Of the Twenty.seeond Kentucky, to take
command OF the brigade now at George Creek
and distributed slopg Big Sandy river to
Louisiana, and five full regiments Of infantry,
Q squadron o! cavalry, and two batteries OF
artillery, and move the brigade forward TO
meet Marshall, with all possible desr atcb. Col.
Garf I'D 'hgs tclsgraphed to Cincinnati for
transportation, supplies, etc., all Of which were
cent to him on Friday evening. He was to
have advanced on Sunday, or will do 70 TODAY,
and, as bis force Is nearly equal to Marshall's,
the probabilities are favorable for an immedi-
ate battle between these two armies. 1t Ia
declared that Marshall will not retreat, but
being In good condition for o fight, will not
yield until after desperate struggle and q
defeat.

THE RECIPROCITY TREATY.

The (so called) Reciprocity Treaty, entered
into In 1854 with Great Britain, IL not
terninabls for ten years without ths consent Of
both parties. At ths end Of the ten years II
may b terminated at The will Of either psrty,
on notice Of one year, which notiss, howsvsr,
may bs given before The tsa ysars expire. Z
The changes In our financial policy, made
and to be made under the exigencies Of war,
would, Of themselves, compel Us to give the
notice for the termination or Oils treaty. Our
lumbermen, fishermen, wheat growers, raisers
of stock, &C., oro to be heavily taxed upon i'm
ported goods, and probably BY exoises. They
cannot consent TO be exposed to the free COM
petition Of the people Of the British Provinces,
producing the ssmo articles and with the
great advantage Of light taxation. Nor, look
ing merely 10 the direct effect upon our treas.
ury, can We now permit the free import
Of (say) twenty millions Of dollars In value
annually from our colonial neighbors.
There is another aspect Of the case appealing
even more directly to the public mind, at this
moment, and that is, the intense hatred Of the
United States exhibited in the British Province,
during the recent diplomatic crisis The Pro-
vincisl new spapers have been really tcrocious
and, as we know from an extensive correspond
ence, both In Canada and In the Lower Pro
vinces, have only reflected the popular impuls'
about them.
| Before this Reciprocity Treaty was framed
oil the tendencies Of opinion 10 Canada ami
New Brunswick were towards annexation I,
the United States. But from the moment thu
free access 10 our markets raised them from
business stagnatiou aud poverty to suddel
prosperity, they began To- return 10 thei
ancient loyalty.
It's no secret here that the Reciprocity Treaty
SO far as 1t was political scheme, was gotteI
up by the Southern managers, who were Il
power in 1854, for no other purpose than to pre-
vent The annexation Of Canada. They availe,
themselves, Of course, of the aid Of certail
Northern interests, principally transportation
interests,) which would be benefited by th
proposed treaty. But, In its political origin
it was stroke Of Southern strategy. 1t woult
have been defeated atlast but for trick Of th
late Judge Bailey, Of Virgins, then chairma,
Of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
The New York World we'll says:
"The Reciprocity Treaty has not, as We OK
1 pected, drawn Canada toward US. II has, n th,
contrary, nlled her with malice and insolsnce
We cannot afford to be building up such a,
enemy on our border. Before that treaty, tn,
