CorroN CARDs.-"A manufactures" says through
the Atant. Confederacy that he has visited the
Cstton CARD Factory of Messrs. Divine Jones Il
Lee, at Gainesville, Ga and that it is a complete
success. lie thinks it of the utmost Importance
that many other such factories be established under
State and Confederate athorty, as individuals can
not control either machinery or workmen, for, be-
sides the common cotton cards. the Cotton Factories
will soon be stopped for the want of "card clothing"
and that would be terrible calamity, as it would
cut off even the present inadequate supply Of
clothing for the soldiers and the people.-fay. Obs

A COOP MAN-We learn that the Rev. John
Swicegood Minister of the gospel in the Lutheran
Church. and citizen of Davidson County, is, in ad
dtion to his ministerial character, farmer and the
owner Of grist mill. This gentleman, in defiance
of the wicked and helsh spirit Of speculation, ha-
bitualy refuses every offer to sell produce for o
greater amount than the old prices. Indeed. we
have upon good authority, that he retains all his
surplus produce for the wives and children Of SOL
diers, and those who are bereft and destitute.
By course of this kind this good man and true
patriot may not extend his fields or increase his
stores upon earth but verify he is winning acres il,
heaven. And we reckon, with his small profits and
consciousness Of doing right he is far happier than
he who gloats upon his thousands, wrenched by ex-
toron and speculation from the pockets of the des
titute-W Western Sentinel

The Resignation of the Secretary of War.

1 nc NcstSndtiOn OF inc secretary OIL war;
The resignation Of Gen. Randolph has very nat
uray excited surprise and regret. He had shown
himself. far the public knew, an officer of abil-
ity and his department had evidently exhibited far
more energy under his management than that of
his predecessors II was, therefore, hoped by the
country at this critical period Of the war, unless he
was unequal to the duties of his department from
declining health other incapacity, that nothing
should occur to force him to abandon his position.
The causes Of his resignation charged to the
disposition Of the President to embarrass him in
the appointment Of subor(nates otherwise to re-
duce his high position 10 one of ready subservicncy
to his will The Wig abiding to it says, 1.-The
Secretary felt himself fcttered and hampered in
his office as to be forced to the conclusion that he
could be more useful in some other service. lie
therefore resigned, and reported for duty in the
field" This is not the first instance in which it
has been indicated, that under the present admin
isration, Cabinet officers are made to feel that no
responsibility attaches to their position above that
Of Chief Clerk; and although technically and in
the practice of the old government they are the
councillors of the President sharing in his respon-
SIUlltleS iidiiuiiIS " uHSe Suuic Ill Iiic
management Of the government, they only in
fact to sanction his plans and schemes execute his
WILL latter and fawn, or leave. If this he So it is
not to be wondered at that man of Mr.. Randoph's
character could not long brook the indignity and
abectness of such position.
The appointment Of lion. Mr. Sedden to fill the
vacancy, seems to give rise to some comment by the
press. Mr. Sedden is no doubt man of ability as
an orator and politician. He belongs to the Presi-
dents school of politics. and is Virginian Of course
but is considered unequal to the task. The Eram-
liner endorses the appointment very stronghold
course the Enquirer thinks it the thing-the Whig
is evidently in doubt ard the Petersburg Express
unhesitatingly pronounces him unqualified for the
post We are willing that he shall be tried, but
this not time to risk experiments.
