The increased demand and present spur

The increased demand and present spur
in the cotton market is pretty we'll under
stood to be caused by the promise made by
the Government to a few favored parties,
that cotton bought aud held by them shall
be exempted from destruction in case of
danger of the approach of the enemy
When those parties have gone to the ex-
tent of their meaDs or wants, there is likely
to ensue decline. What sort of justice
that is which favors foreigners rather tnan
citizens, Or prefers one class Of citizens to
another may possibly be explained some
day, but whether right or wrong, planters
would do well to take advantage of the op,
portunity.
Our advice to planters is, do not specu.
late for higher prices, sell and pay debts,
it is not only the part of prudence, but a
patriotic motive should prompt to such a
course. Confederate mouey, like every
other commodity, depreciates because the
supply exceeds the demand-there is more
in circulation than the channels of trade can
contain. Revive the trade in cotton and
use is Immediately found for the surplus.
The currency is good, but hasbecome stag
naut-revive it by keeping up its circula-
ton, sell your cottoi and pay your debts,
and enable your creditors to pay theirs,
and we shall hear very little more talk a.
bout the depreciation of Confederate mon,
ey, the supply will be no more than equal
to the use We shall have for it.--AuguSta

suspicion unjustly fall upon our friends,
who are true to US, and have been run out

testing every mans fidelity to the South
Let this test be applied, let every man be
properly indorsei, before selling Cotton to
any one from the enemy's lines; and let
the authorities, the railroad agents, and the
people, see to it, that no man is permitted
to remove Cotton till it can be satisfactorily
shown that all is ri ght.

Citizens and "contrabands" from the

been finished, but that the amount of water
in it will not float even the smallest sized

railroad from bend to bend, by means Of
material taken from the Vicksburg, Shreve-
port and Texas Railroad. The river is
falling so fast, and is now too low for their
canal to be at all efficient before next

Vegetables for our Troops.

TUPELo, July II, 1862.
To Southern Editors:
GENTLEMEN Our fruits and vegetables
are ripening upon their branches, and es-
seutia service to our cause may be effected
by urging in time upon our people the me-
cessity of preserving that surplus which has
been habitually wasted No efforts should
be spared to save every edible which can
be preserved, in such manner and form as
will prevent decay, and admit Of easy trans
portation.
Apples, peaches, pears, figs, okra, pep
pers, &C., can all be readily and cheaply
dried and would thus materially aid to
supply, throughout the year, not only nu.
tritious food, but that variety in diet which
is so essential to health. Our soldiers re.
quire something more to maintain their
manly vigor than the salted meat and badly
cooked bread to which the necessities of our
bcleaguerel land have long and often re-
duced their diet. A more savory and va
ried diet, which the products of our soil
can bountifully furnish, would more effect.
ually keep our hospitals empty, and our
camps free from the languid and pallid vic
tins of the blood destroying scurvy, than
physic and physicians.
The preservation of fruit can be super
intended by our noble women, whose glo-
rious devotion has already been recorded on
the pages of parliamentary history by tie
chivalric gentlemen Of England. Letthem
be informed that they could thus aid to
save the lives of more braves in our camps,
and the hearts of more mourners in their
homes, than are killed and wounded by the
bullets of low.bor Yankees in bloody
battle, and there need be but little fear that
this season will witness our fruits wasteful:
y destroyed by the stock, or prodigious
rotting on the ground.
While loftier motives should prompt their
preservation, I ain authorized to add an
other inducement to Major John j. Walker,
whose zeal and talents are now, fortunately
for our soldiers, devoted to them at the post
of Chief Commissary of this Department,
where energy, ability, and sympathy with
suffering are SO much needed.
He gives his assurances that he will
promptly purchase for our soldiers, at a
fair and liberal price all dried Cor otherwise
prescrvcd) fruits and vegetables.
1t is hoped that these views will meet
with your appreciation, and will therefore
be pressed upon the public notice.
Very respectfully, your ob't servant.

DERIVATION AND MEANING OF THE
WORD YANKEE.-The Richmond Why
has discovered in record of the travel kept
by one Thomas Anburey, and published
in London, in 1871, the following in refer
euce to the derivation and meaning of the
word Yankee Having referred to the
New Englanders as Yankees, he says:
"A.propos-it may not be amiss just
here to observe to you the etymology of
this term. 1t is derived from Cherokee
word, eanhke, which signifies coward and
slave. This epithet of Yankee was bestow-
ed upon the inhabitants of New England
by the Virginians, for not assisting them
in war with the Cherokees, and they have
always been held in derision by it."

the seizure of the Trent prudent men
deeply regretted the necessity Of conflict
which was certain to be misrepreseuted and
misunderstood. A war professedly waged
for the establishment of Southern Indepcn-
dence would be still more invidious, and it
would not involve unanimity at home. 1t
is impossible that England should wish to
establish or maintain negro slavery, and it
by no means follows that an alliance with a
slaveholding community would imply any
favor to the institution which might be in
cidentally assisted; but the negotiating
North would echo the fercest denunciation
of the Abolitionists against Power which
connected itself with the insurgent slave.
owners. Against much less obloquy it is
not easy to set off any counterbalance ad-
vantage which would make an American
war expedient.
Least of all, would it be profitable to
follow France into struggle which would
necessarily be controlled by alien counsels
and motives. Just action in war is not re-
commended by the experience of recent
years in the Crimea, in China, or in Mexi-
co. Good faith aud friendly feeling are no
sufficient security for lasting community
of interests and it might suit the purpose
of France to make peace or continue the
war against the wish and opinion of the
English government. In either case a
withdrawal from the alliance would be ell
ther dangerous or discreditable, and yet the
objections to perseverance in joint action
might be still more insurmountable. The
quarrels of two allies with common enemy
are never altogether identical. 1t might
become necessary to mix up questions of
Mexican policy or of insults on the French
flag with the main object of terminating a
ruinous civil war. The mere want of cot
ton is not precisely the same in character
and in result, as it affects the trade of the
TWO countries. An armed intervention in
the South would probably be popular at
Lyons, but it would certainly meet with
general disapprova at Lancashire. On the
whole, it is better not to engage in an un-
certain partnership; it is inexpedient to
undertake the gratuitous duty of coerciug
the Americans into commerce ; and it is
not even desirable to offer or to undertake
a mediation which might probably end in
an armed intervention by England and
France.

I'd Lieutenants, SIS; non.commissioned Of
fcers, musicians and privates, So; and SO
on through all sorts of men connected with
the army and navy. This bill was no doubt
passed in order to tempt the 100000 re-
cruits that Lincoln has called for. The
sum of money so promised will be immense,
although not much when tackled to the
little debt, which the Yankee Government
has already contracted.
