salt-and the SAT- works.

A correspondentsof a Southern paper
writing from Abingdon, Va, makes SEN
sibie suggestion in the paragraph annex
ed:--
"Ten miles from this point are the
great Saline Works, from which two thirds
of the South derives its salt. These works
manufacture about 1000 bushels per day,
which is distributed over the vast area of
territory from the army in the Valley Of
Virginia TO the Mississippi. The price at
the works is 81 per bushel, but hundreds
of land sharks and army worms lie
around, from whom salt can be obtained
for the fair SUM of So or $40 per bushel.
All purchasers have to stay at the works
from 10 to 20 days before their turn
comes round" and rather than wait, they
will pay these outside spectators their
swinsling prices. These spectators ought
to be dealt with as Buonaparte dealt with
army spectators: that is, lead them out
at shutdown with folded arms and ban.
daged eyes. II the military commander
of this district would take this affair into

In regard to Lincoln's call for add.

The New York Money Market.


NEW YORK, June 10, 1862.
Money steady at 2aG4 p. cent. on call
and 4(G5 for discount on strictly prime
paper. The market for sterling exchange
is feverish and unsettled, and bankers
bills nominal at 472@48. American gold
steady at 6}@6i y cent. premium.
For many months United States Treas
ury notes were convertible into gold, or
New York exchange, on payment of or
binary cost of shipping the metal. Now
the change is coming over "the spirit of
the dream" Currency is worth A per
cent. interest, and gold nearly per cent.
premium. Two days after the general
battle at Richmond gold will be worth 70
per cent. more than u s. Treasury notes
Foreign exchange will then indeed be
"feverish and unsettled"
BY the same authority, we find Plan

The Consoription.

n,,ss seems to be brewing South Of
US in regard 70 certain features of
the conscript Law. Whether right or
wrong, constitutional or unconstitutional.
the law was necessity. 1t has saved the
army and the Confederacy. The enemy
was unctifying himself with the very nat
ural delusion that as fast as the time Of
our twelve months men expired they
would leave the service and seek their
homes, aud at the very time when he
was ready to strike the hardest blows,
our army would be in state ofdisorgan-
ization. But the CONSUMPTION spoiled that
calculation; and the South has in the
Geld todsy a larger and more efficient
force than at any period since the com
mencement Of the war. The law no doubt
bears hard on portion Of the volunteers,
but it has saved the cause, and defeated
the expectation of the enemy, who find'
himself confronted at every point with I
formidable force at the precise momen
he expected to find us weak and ready I,
fy before him. Therefore we can see bu
