Welles must sleep; for all the world knows
that the Tacony was captured by the citizens

JEFFERSON Days DnSIEs TUE EhusrBNcs or
BLocHADe. BUT DECLARES 1T EFTEoTivE.--
Jefferson Davis message to the rebel Congress
begins with graceful tribute 10 the abilities
oil General 6rant, by way of reference TO the
'grave reverses" that that hero has inflicted
upon The Southern army, and then turns to the
very important subject OF the blockade. He
rails at england through one-fourth of his mes
sage, because she recognized ii and declared 1t
elective. and charges her with Can unoquivocai
violation Of agreement aud international law"
lie dilates on the difficulties Of the case. There
were to be boekaded "three thousand Eve hun.
dred and fifty nine statute miles" of coast,
which included conc hundred and eighty nine
rivers Lays. harbors. inlets. sounds and passes.s
How formidabel How absurd musshecessari-
ly be any human attempt to blockade all that.
Aud the navy of the United States that was ex-
pected to do il consisted Of "twenty-four yes
sells Of all classes, of which hak were in distant
seas." Here tho impartial reader scents an
snti-climax;syet upon the whole be sympathizes
more Or less wich Davis denunciations Of Eng
land Tor her recognition of this "paper block
sde.' Paper blockade is tho burden Of his story.
Davis then refers to the rebel finances
He rcverts to the fact that the rebellion started
10 life on specie basis, and proposed to pay
its way with treasury notes, convertible at the
pleasure of the holder into eight per cent
bonds. the interest on which was to be payable
in coin" He shows that the reliance Of the
government for the means to pay this interest
10 specie was upon taxation and cotton Now,
taxation the Southern people would not stand.
Tia, ardent race, all agow with its desire for
freedom, would not pay the expenses, and there
tore cotton was the only resource. So the
scheme required for its operation that there
should be no suspension Of trade between the
South and foreign nations All that was
wanted was free trade for cotton Cotton was
to go out, cash was to come ill., And as the
Southern ports were virtually open" paper
treasury notes were to be kept
equal in value to specie with the utmost ease.
But here again comes that pestilent paper block
ads in quite another view. insufficient alto
gether, utterly and absolutely. to Justify Eng
lands recognition Of il, IL was sufficient TO au-
initiate the cotton trade and keep away the
cash that was to have paid the interest Hence
the inancia! collapse OF the confcdcracy. Davis
says it Here we are in a dilemma as to what
we sbsl, think of Davis veracty; for if he lies
he speaks truly and If he tells the truth he lies.

BURLINGTON, Friday P. NJ. {
The most important event Of the week, Affect
ing the interests of the Western producers, Is
the opening Of Lake navigation. Vessels from
Buffalo reached Chicago on Monday. Since then
the arrivals have been numerous and ship
ments of grain immense. The railway lines
East of Chicago that have been holding up for
arbitrary rates, will now have to knock under
1t is source of regret that the railways center
ing in Chicago, cannot be reached in some way,
SO that producers in the interior can have
their products carried to the Lake shore at liv-
ing rates. If the Convention that is soon to as
semble In Chicago, to discuss brainless projects
for digging bitches through Illinois, Canada &C..
would turn their attention to railway Corpora
tions that are eating out the substance of the
country with high rates, they might render the
community an essential service
Gold during the week, has ranged at from SO
50 Rcent premium, closing in New York yester-
day at 49, Eastern Exchange is steady at 14c pre-
MUM. Legal Tender Treasury Notes are want
ed in preference to other currency.
In Chicago, since our last report, Wheat has
declined about &c y bushel. Yesterday CSC for
No. aspiring, 7s@S0 for rejected, No. Winter,
81 1S91 70. Corn F@4Sc for No. mixed. Oats

In this market Wheat is wanted at 81 COOL O.,
for good choice Winter; 65s75c for Spring. Corn

The River is in fine boating condition-down
freights plenty. Our merchants are now receiv-
ing their usual Spring and Summer supplies of
Ohio River manufactured articles; and Country
Merchants will doubtless find it to their interest
to examine stocks of nails, glass; iron, &C., here,
