YANKEE CUNNING.

Running tho blockade from sNassau~ With
English goods appears to >berthe easiest thing in
the world, although the Yankee feet outside the
bar at Charleston, our principal port OF entry,
rarely numbers less than 6fteep or twenty vessels
Considering the natural vigilance and love of
plumber of the Yankees, this is little remarkable
But the simple people of the South, seeing with
the field of battle and in naval engagements, think
it quite as easy to outw them in matters of trade.
Hence their uubourded delight over the arrival
of every ship from Nassau or Bermuda, their Joy
in attending the daily cargo sales of fresh
imported goods" and their implicit faith in the
superior quality of the articles they purchase, as
compared with the worthless trash which came
from Yankee-land before the war broke out.
F; Nothing gives a citizen of the Confedcracy such
pleasure the display Of various wares of genuine
British manufacture purchased at enormous prices,
but willingly paid for, because they certainly
of British aud not of Yankee make.
1t does not become member Of class so
VIGOROUSLY guillible as editors to question the
as,uteness of his fellow citizens, or to ippusn the
honesty of those patriotic merchants who invest
! their . money in the hazardous enterprise of
importation. But competent authorities, in no
wise connected with the art of printing do assert,
that the blockade goods and chattels over which
| We chuckle so much, are more than doubtful in
their material and finish. Especially is this the
case with English shoes, now generally worn
and Dragged about. 1t is stated, in the most
positive manner, that these shoes never saw the
chalk cliffs of Albion, but smell strongly of Lynn
Roxbury, Taunton, and other Yankee towns. Nay,
the statements go far to declare that the
manufacture Of English goods for the, Nassau,
Charleston and Wilmington markets has become
settled business in New England, and that
Yankee houses in Nassau are becoming as common
| as they used to be In Richmond or New Orleans
1t would not be safe to say that these statements
are absolutely true. But such things are by no
means impossible. The Yankees cunning
as the archfend himself, and as initiative as the
Chinese. The counterfeitng Of French goods has
been their chief occupation for five and twenty
years past; why should they not now counterfeit
British fabrics, if by SO doing they get cotton
or gold and deplete the pockets OF simpl e-minded
rebels? We fancy Seward instructing the COM
mander of the feet off Charleston, to keep good
look out for the Nassau packets, and never to see
them, unlessthey get stranded, did the Princess
? Royal, which really came from England, and was
not laden with shoes. -Richmora Why.
