The Country's Rcsources.

There is a statement made by some vi
sionary that our resources are hundred
times greater than they were at the time
Of the revolutionary war. That is on its
face great absurdity. Our resources con-
sist principally in the number Of our good
acres Of land, and of our laborers. We
have now twenty million people, and the
infant States had three millions. Here
is. then, an increase Of seven-iold instead
Of hundred, and our good, arabic land
hAs not increased so much in proportion.
Neither can our manufacturers have in
creased so much as our people have rela-
lively. 1t may be that we have hundred
times more gold and silver than we had
at that time, but we must not expect much
income from that kind of property, for it
is not often found by the assessors. 1t is,
however, true that our expenses have in
creased to hundred times what they were
at tic foundation of our Government.
Then our expenses were about six millions
a year-now it is eight or ten hundred
millions, probably more rather than less ;
and every day that expense grows greater,
and every day our means grow less.
Every days more bonds are issued, bear
ing interest and every day more
interest becomes due. Every day
more soldiers are wounded and disabled
and placed upon the pension list. Every
day some new officers are appointed to
eat ont the substance ofthe people, and to
annoy them by obnoxious and hateful
meddling, Every day more ships are
launched, and every ship ofwar costs from
one to four thousand dollars day. Every
man that is taken from his work, and set
to packing musket, is one less producer,
and one more consumer of the wealth OF
the country. Every town that is taken
requires garrison, and every plantation
that is burnt increases the number of our
devoted enemies. This business is over
done and will ruin its authors, and il
may ruin ourselves at the same time. Nc
greater wrong has been done to the hu.
man race, than this attempt to subvert
our mild constitutional government, and
set up the harsh and cruel system o.
eastern despots.

Very Logical.

The Associated Press news agent at
Washington City, is certainly brilliant
fellow. He is blessed with wonderful
powers of discernment and analysis. He
tells us that Washington has been wild
with the rumor of a great battle in front
and then proceeds to allay the excitement
by the following brilliant reasoning pro-
cess. He says the reports of fight are
untrue, for two reasons
First, what is left on the Rappahannock
of the rebel army don't want to fight Sc
cond, our army has not yet found anybody or
anything to give it battle.
That is conclusive. Washington is
safe MEADE is safe and ABRAHAM sleeps
soundly. There is no further cause for
excitement. ABE ought to give that re-
porter Major Generals commission.

The Carrying Trade Passing Out
of American into Foreign Hands.

The New York JoWnalOf Commerce gives
a table, showing the injury to American com
merce by the few vessels sailing under the
Rebel flag, in consequence of the carrying
trade gradually changing from the American,
to seek the protection OF a foreign flag In
1860, the foreign trade at the port Of New
York, for the quarter ending June 80, was
sixty'two millions under our flag, aud thirty
millions under the flags of allforeign nations
This has rapidly changed as the war has pro-
gressed, until for the last quarter returned
ending June 80, 1868, we find sixty-fve mil.
hons under foreign flags, and only twenty
three millions under the stars and stripes
1t is true that various causes have contributed
to this great loss to our commerce, but one of
the most prominent Of these causes is the
undeniable fact that shippers all over the world
have been deferred by fear of capture, from
