THE PACIFIC
Commercial Advertiser.
Thursday, MARCH 6.

SINCE the Southern rebellion broke out, no
more important intelligence has been received,
than that brought by the two last arrivals from
San Francisco. Virtually it amounts to this
the back bone of the rebellion is broken, and the
question of its total suppr ssion is now only a
matter of time. The advance and action, so
long called for, both by the people of America
and Europe, has begun, and is accompanied with
all the success that the most sanguine could ask
for. Indeed, it seems impossible that such
mighty power, as that now welded by the Fede-
raj Government, could meet with any thing but
success when pitted against the enfeebled and
disheartened opposition which it encounters.
The delay on the part of the government neces-
sary for preparation. has only tended to weaken
the rebellion by exhausting the means and pa
thence of the leaders, for be it remembered they
have not the cordial support of all classes of the
people.
A hasty glance ut the position OF affairs, will
show how completely the rebels are now sur
rounded. There are at least 200, 900 troops
under Mcclellan, along the Potomac. This army
holds the rebel chiefs Beauregard and johnson,
as their own papers admit, "as firm as a wise"
They cannot move lest Mcclellan advance into
the heart of Virginia and they can only lie on
the defensive. as they are ensconced in batteries,
from which they dare not stir.
Moving down the coast We find Gen. Burn
sides expedition entering North Carolina with
some 25 900 troops, which have landed, and are
evidently preparing to move into the heart of
North Carolina and cut OF the rebel army in
Virginia from all retreat or communication south
ward.
Still farther South, we find Gen. Sherman has
entered South Carolina, with 5000 troops or
more, and is threatening Charleston, while Com.
with large forces lies before Savannah,
threatening that city. Both these ports have
been efectuaHy blockaded to the entire s~atisfac-
ton of the caviling European Governments.
some of which are now snarling in a most con-
.emptible manner because they are bLoekaded, in
ust the way that Russia blockaded Sevastopol.
They didn't growl then at Russia's mode of max
an 1. e~ffectual blockade" and they have no
light TO now because it has been done as she
lid it.
Moving round into the Gulf. we find Pensa-
invested with n large fleet, and troops sufi-
lent for all practical purposes. OF the shores
f the State of Mississippi, ION Ship Island is
Zen. Buffers expedition, ready for action when
yer necessary.

wAsniSeToS, February 6-The special dispatch of the n. Y
arrived, and informs the Government that agents had been sent
to England to hypothecate The entire group OF the Sandwich
We intended to have made last week some
comments on the above item, which was pub
lished in our foreign news column, but were not
fully satisfied regarding what may have given
rise to the telegram. We are authorized to say
that the statement 81 that agents had been sent
to England to hypothecate the entire group of
the Sandwich Islands to Great Britain" is false.
and has no foundation whatever. Messrs. S.
Spencer and c. G.. Hopkins are probably the
persons referred to as =. agents. but we under
stand that they were not authorized to do any
thing of the kind. We hear it was a part of
their errand to England to inquire on what
condition, and at what rate OF interest n loan
could be effected there on behalf of the govern
ment, and it is possible that they may have been
instructed to inquire what security, if any, was
required on any loans that might be taken.
But beyond this, they have not been authorized
to act, nor to negotiate any loan or borrow any
money, which can only be done by sanction of
the Legislature.
Nor do We believe that the telegram, unfound-
ed rs it is, was set afoat by Col. Parker. He is
a very cautious and discreet gentleman, and
more than that went to Washington as bearer of
dispatches from this government, and it is hard
ly p~resumable that he would give currency to a
report which he had every opportunity of know
ing was unfounded. The report if traced to its
author, would probably be found to have ORR
ginated with one of the newspaper correspon-
dents, who abound in Washington, and who
are ever in search of : sensation items"
Regarding a loan, we may add here, there is
no necessity for one, much less for a foreign
loan, even were it obtainable ut one half the
rate of interest at which it could be secured
here. \ low rate of interest is always q temp
tation to increased Indebtedness. There is no
need of a permanent debt for our government,
inasmuch as it possesses a steady and ample
to meet the wants of its administration,
prOrided it is administered on principles of strict
Its present income is sufficient to
on its present debt, allow of a reduction of
that debt, and leave a surplus to be expended in
public improvements, which are greatly called for
and which really constitute the productive capt.
tai of the government, bringing in a large inter-
est on the investment. Without retrenchment
and the most rigid economy, our debt must in
crease, and it will not be long before the Wash
ington telegram, which we now call a living
report, will become n literal truth, for nobody
will trust US on our word to any great extent,
md We shall be compelled TO hypOthecate, mort
gate and sell ourselves, body, soul, king, chiefs,
people and islands, in order to save ourselves
rom absolute starvation and extinction.
