LET OUR SoIpEE,ss na esE1 TO PROTECT cuii ffo- PL9, AID ITO OF REss THEM.-Though the-Pohcy Of trading with tine enemy s in all of its aspects, of doubtful propriety, and most of it's influences are absolutely hostile to cause, yet it is gratifying to see the prompt protection extended to the inter ests of persons engaged in that trade, by cur chief military authorities, when it has been atten pted to be arrested, interferred with by officers or sol diers under their command. This is right because 10 person should be permitted to diyest another of his property unless in regular and legal mali ueI.
 But willie the trading interest has been protect ed, the planting interest has been neglected, and, in some instances, seriously injured if not destroy cd fer the season. There is 10 doubt ofthe fact that struggling portions of our army, frequently accompanied by officers, have inflicted serious in ury on many of oul citizens, by making unaIthor sed and arbitrary seizures of corn and provisions, by burning fences, by pasturing thtir hoses on and dc trayiag wheat fe!da, and by other unlawful, 3 cessary and oppressire acts, tie effect of which vil oe aike injurious to the citizens, the army ana he cause. Some complaints of abuses of this Lnl have been hearl from the northern part Of h. otate, an many from the lower Arkansas val
 tn csa farmers and planters be protected in r- as rops, the army cannot be fed, and the coun try WI. have to be abandoned. :.
 Tais is matter of the greatest importance, and we hope it may be attended to by our military mn nders.

Legal Tender.

AER. EDIIOns
 T. seems to rue you were entirely right when in your issue feR weeks since you sait the cOusti- luton of the Confederate States forbade the Inak- ias Of anything but gold or silver coin legal ten der iu pay ment Of debts. In my opinion this pro h bi ion extends ts well to Congress as 10 the leg i-l ures of the several States.
 [ i5 true that the language of the first paragraph cf the tenth section of the article of the coustiu ti9n refers only to the several States, and that thee is no similar express prohibition to Congress containei in the constitution. But surely we have a. .1,jte1 the cardinal doctrine of our political
 |. that he legislatures of the sey eral States lnasrczeroise any power that is not taken from thsn tba Confederate or State constitutions, but Congress must find in the constitution itzllf a delegation 0t every power it assumes to exercise. Ia. 4i and sixth paragraphs ot the sixth artlcie 7' -he con stuIon, which are taken from tire ninth and tepth articles Of the amendments to the ola c1n tstutlon. declare the enumeration jn the constitutian Of certain rghs shall not be construed tD deny or dlstarAge others retained by the people of the several States;' and |" the powers not deie- gate to the Confederate states by the constitution nor prohibited by it to the States ETC reserved to the States respectively CT 10 the people thereof" These principles formed the basis of the celebrated Kentucky and Virginia resolutions of 57a and 19 < Before your, correspondent !" A. B." concluded that Congress cin make Confederate Treasury notes legal tender in payment Gf debts he should have aseertained that there is in the constitution | grant of the power to do so
 Ii he can show that Cohgress has the lower, the expediercy Of its exercise then becomes d question of TO small moment. IL has been agita ted n Congress, tut that body has not, that 1 ara aware ot, come to any determination in reyard to is. For my own part, however, l am clearly of opinion that 1t is inez pedient, as well as nncen. sritutigh- for Congress to attempt 10 exerciseany such pomer. \.

A Nev- Trick with Cards.

Some six or eight weeks ago, handbiils and cir culars ere gent all over the State. notifying coun

 to was prcpared to furnish some 90 900 pairs of cotton cards, cacoes, and other things on terms that unntd enahle them supply Families at low rates. 4 lively corresponi.nce va soon opened withJarties from every secton of the State, and a large number of dealers, spueuiaiorS, and some few w,,o were dcsiIous of beneEtpg their neigh

They were rcioned tu George w. .C.iGs, shrewd fellow, who Was book keeper in a well knoDn colnmerca house in the West for many wears. and known to great many persons in the cj,v. The deaiets were taken to q building on the liver bank, and led to cellar where boxes marked iu the usual manner, with the numbers of p4'r5 and the nurber of the size of the cotton cards were snugy slowed. Curtis, it appears, made no secret that these cards were struggled ard llab,c to con

Secrecy ioil.cd as it was desirable not to ettle as officers get on tue scent, anu as the 0uldiG was near the river, it was very easy for purchasers to quietly move their boxes on boat and carry them on.- As the demand was go great, purchasers were ad- yised to pay for their cards and secure therboXes, which were to be delivered early in April Others engaged to take large quantities, one contract be- ing to the tune of $30.00O. About the first Of April, Curtis told a number of his patrons that he expected every hour a large lot of dry goods and needed money and the parties might take the cards, or take part in cotton cards and part i'll dry-goods when the latter came.
