Mr.. Adams is IT'S witness, not ours: his test.

examination. The party which introduced him
with such flourish Of trumpets should be in
no haste to discredit him because he proves
the wrong case.
As The H0rh says We have no other au-

handest. II is that of President LigCoIN,
who, in recent, widely circulated letter,
says:

others alone, would also 90 nat"
There is the whole case in nutshell. GAN
things are lawful to me, says ST. Paul; "but
all things are not expedient." The question of
freeing and arming the slaves of an enemy ID
purely one of expedency, and so the President
treats it. If you will probably gain more than
you lose by it, you do it; if not, not We

Confedoracy-but if they are not entitled to
ALL they are not entitled to either.
The rule of all war is not only to hit hard,
but to hit where you can hit hardest. Now,
when the COnfederates at the South and their
allies and accomplices at the North, set up
such an agonizug yell, if the emancipation of
slaves is but mentioned, we see at once upon
what particular part of the back of this Con-
federate steed the raw is established, and we
call for a vigorous application OF the lash in
precisely that direction. We do not approve
of sparing the beast, merely because bastins
him will please the Abolitionists We are not
afraid of pleasing them too well-thoy are not
so easily satisfied. Moro than anything
else, we want restoration of our

and of our peace which has been wickedly
disturbed Give us back our great, prosper

Just as DR.. Mackay was rounding the last

London Times, he received report from one
of his Secession friends so agreeably adverse
to the Union cause as to warrant departure
from his usual polished method, and tempt him
t. hurried postscript. The amount of his
latest intelligence was that Stonewall Jackson
had dedicated Gen. Sgel, with considerable
loss, and succeeded in turning the right flank

COTTON CULTURE IN SOUTH AMER.
HCA.

The attention of several capitalists in our
CITY and in New-Eneland is being turned to
tho raising of cotton in Venezuela. LANDS
suited to its production are said to be In great
abundance, and can be leased or bought on
the most reasonable and inviting terms. La
borers from the United States can be taken
thither, suited to tho business, at q low rate.
Judge Culver, who is soon to go out as
United States Minister to that country, has
been consulted by several gentlemen with REL
erence to this matter, and will, if it meet the
appreciation of our own Government, bring Inc
subject before tho Venezuelan Government.
The latter is said to look with great favor
upon the measure.
Gentlemen who have given some attention to
the subject, and who have experimental in the
growing of cotton in that country, assure us
that with cotton ut and 10 cents per pound
very fair profits can be made. With cotton as
it now is, at 40 to so cents, the profits would,
if the statement be correct, be enormous. In
deed. we are assured that lands there, with
cotton at 80 cents can be made to yield net
profit of 81 500 per acre.
Tho attention Of English capitalists is al.
ready turned to the production of Cotton in
other parts of the world than the United
States. I hose of our own country will not be
long behind them in view Of the possible
changes in the culture of that staple in the
Southern States.

It has been supposed that in the event of
the recognition of the Southern COniederacy
by Louis Napoleon, the Emperor would explain
his reasons beforehand in some public way for
such interference. 1t is accordingly rumored
in Paris that q pamphlet, bearing the title of
al Europe, L'Am{rique, ct lie Coion," writ
ten BY one of the confidential advisers of the
Emperor, whom some suppose To be Michel
Cheyaller, will soon make its appearance. If
the information which reaches us on this point
be true. the pamphlet is to define the respect
i've position of the North and Of the South in
their relation to Europe, and to set forth the
policy which has governed France toward both
since the beginning of the war. The object IL
to prepare public opinion for the steps which
the French Government may see mt to take
eventually in the American question. That he
coutemplates an interference Of some sort in
our affairs. there are OTHER Indications. Sew
cral French newspapers published in the naval
ports of France announce that the Government
has ordered squadron Of reserve to be pre-
pared for sea, and that the lne-oi-ba'tle ships
Wagram and Jean Bart, the frigates Danae,
Nemesis, lIsly. La Sbyllc, and the sunboat
La Tourmcnte, are getting ready for active
service. They explain this extraordinary dis
plA, o. naval force BY saying that the depart
ure of the fleet for the Gulf Of Mexico has
