The New York Wo,ld says 1t will be motto
ed that while naval stores, sugar, ana mo!as-
ses are in process Of shipping from New Or
leans, no cotton is reported as being under
way. This is significant. 1t may be that the
planters who have kept their crops ON their
plantations find themselves without baggng OF
gunny cloth to make it, hut the more prob
able theory is that the secession sentiment 80
far prevails that persons who hold cotton
dare not send it to market. When the Mis-
sissippi and all It's tributaries are cleared OF
rebel soldiers, an attraction as strong as gray
itation itself will draw cotton to both New
Orleans and Memphis

"The republican Delegation from tins
state" says the Detroit FREE Press, have re
solved not to permit the confirmation OF any
democrat Tor the higher grades of military
appointment" The Free Press recites the
case Of COL Duifeld, of Michigan, who, long
time since was nominated by the president to
brigadier generalship. The recent rcjec-
ton of the gallant Shields, the other day
who haG been nominated to u major general
ship, would indicate that the republican ma
jority of the senate had adopted the policy of
rejecting all democrats.
