vic Rc.ources Of the south.

We commend to the consideration of the
intelligent and thoughtful reader the letter
we publish in this paperfromthe Baltimore
: CORRESPONDENT of The New York World. 1t
gives valuable collection of facts and
figures bearing on the resources OF the
South, its means of supplying its popula-
tion and its armies with food, and its caval-
nv with horses. Information of this kind
is of great value, as it shows why the stories
of starvation, exhaustion and discourage
ment of the rebels, so industriously pro-
mulgatcd since the very first summer OF the
war, have all proved false lights held out to
deceive and humbug the people into the be-
lief that the radical plan of subjugating
and annihilating States, inaugurated by
LINCOLN. would speedily succeed, and thai
he and his Cabinet would have the honor
Of giving birth to new and great free Ma
ton. But the scales are falling from the
eyes of an outraged and deceived people.
1t is becoming evident that the colossal
magnitude of the undertaking LINCOLN and
his party leaders have engaged in, fare exceeds
their calculations that they began to build
up their new nation or empire without
counting the cost, and that if they are per-
mitted to persevere in their mad career, they
will bring irretrievable ruin upon North
and South, and instead Of new nation,
there will be scarcely vestage left of the
old one. sal4isaN

FREMONT AND THE RADICAL
GERMANS.
Chicago German Republican Paper
Declares for Fremont.

! The Chicago Telegraph, the newspaper or
gan of the radical German Republicans OF
that city, in its issue of March Goth, con-
tains an editorial article, which, faithfully
translated, reads as follows:
OUR FIRST CnoIcE FOR PREsIDENTsHIP,
JOHN G. FREMoNT.-The name of the Path
finder, upon whom the potentates and their
tools piled scorn and shame for years, the
name of Fremont which they thought for
gotten and gone, resounds once more clear
and aloud from the mouth of the people, for
| the people is true to those who is true to
himself and not booty norpolitical bargain
ing, but love of liberty and esteem for con-
sequent representatives of liberty are the
motives that agitate the people.
This is the reason why the people clung
tightly to Fremont; why they call on him
again, in spite of the calumnies and tricks
OH the part of the selfish. and blood-thirsty
| lin spite of the mean treason of duty
| forgotten press. f.ae -itl stt. -.
The German citizens, before all the rest,
are the ones true to their principles of liber-
ty, and, therefore, TO the most noble flag
bearer of the party of freedom. :.
They have spoken it, even here in Chica-
go; like in 1856 and 1861, they have declar-
ed now again, that their sympathies are for
John G. Fremont; that the Pathfinder is
their first choice for Presidentship.
Resting upon the expression of the will
of the free German citizens of Chicago,
upon the resolutions which they adopted in
a public meeting, we place the name of
Fremont as that of the candidate of our first
choice upon the head of our sheet, fighting
cheerfnlly under the old flag.
Corresponding herewith with our con-
viction, and the wish of our free German
citizens, we declare herewith, clear and
openly, that principles stand higher with
us than men. fNf
We shall, therefore, be ever ready, if the
majority of the liberty party should prefer
it, to transfer the position of candidate to
another radical man; to subordinate our
preference and to give our hearty support
to this other candidate, be this candidate
now Butler, Chase, Wade, johnson, or some
other member of the liberty party, who,
contrary to Lincoln, warrants by character
and deeds that his heart beats for principles
of liberty, and that his capability and en-
ergy shall be dedicated altogether to the
realization of those principles.
But in the first place, we enter the field
for the intrepid and capable champion of
liberty, for John G. Fremont, the man of
the people, reminding our fellow-citizens
of the old battle-cry Of 1856: Fremont,
with him, victory! t

The Dfm3ctslty in CharIeston, Coles
County, HlIinois---A Democratic
Meeting Attacked by Abolition
isfs--Ihe Military Called Out.
X A difficulty occurred at Charleston, Coles
county, Illinois, on Monday, the 2sth ult,,
which from report has assumed rather a
serious aspect. The regular telegraphic
dispatches concerning it are evidently one
sided, and intended for the manufacture of
political capital. Charleston is handsome
village, the County town of Coles county,
and Is on the Terre, Haute and Alton Rail-
road, almost equi-distant from Terre Haute
and Mattoon. Respecting the commence
ment of the difficulty we give the following
special dispatch to the Chicago Times:
DO n u SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, March 20.
The difficulty in Coles county is the topic
of conversation here to-day. 1t Is impossi-
BILE to arrive at the facts from what we have
heard, although several kilograms have been
received by the military authorities here. 1t
is stated that John r. Eden. member of Con-
gress from that district made speech in
Charleston yesterday. He was replied to
| by DIR. York. Surgeon of the 54th Regiment,
and violent Aboltionist. A row was got
ten up and DIR. York was shot and killed.
BY order of Col. Mitchell, of the 54th, Mr..
Eden was arrested and confined under guard
| in the court house. The 54th Regiment,
most of whom were at Mattoon, was sent
for during the row. 1t is said that six Re-
publicans and two Democrats were killed
and twenty wounded ON both sides, among
whom was Col. Mitchell. 1t is said that all
is quiet to-day, though doubt this. u

How Massachusetts, Fills Her
N H-t~ Quotas.

According to the Boston papers, the State
of Massachusetts has enlisted fifteen hun
dred Germans, who are now on their way
to this country, to help fill the quota of
that State in the army. They also announce
that the negro colonists, who have just re
turned from Hayti, have been enlisted for a
similar purpose. The same State, by the
way, has levied upon all parts of the coun-
try and all races to fill the ranks Of its reg
iments in the field. The World says:
For some reason OF other the swarms
Governor Andrew promised if the Aboli
ton policy was carried out have never ap-
peared, and Massachusetts has been in the
market for mercenaries to fill up its quotas
when other States have furnished their own
sons. Can it be that the old Bay State
wishes to show the blessed results that are
to follow the sublime mingling Of races by
drawing its recruits from as many different
sources as there are nations? In other
words, is political and social equality to be
postponed until a trial is made of military
miscegenation? tO t~nt

The New York Times ON NIiscege-
ffF nation. t-

The New York Tribune, having recently
come out in favor of the indiscriminate sex
ual intercourse of negroes and whites, for
the Improvement of the latter, The Times
also Republican, puts itself upon the record
as follows: e, ~ taacs 76E
The pressure on our space ofother matter
has prevented us from recurring to the Sc
rious and important topic of "Miscegena-
ton" We regret very much, however,
having allowed our attention to be even
temporarily diverted from it, as we find
from the earnest discussion which 1t is re-
ceiving at the hands of our contemporaries,
that it has lost none Of its Importance. In
fact. if we are to believe what we hear, es-
pecially from the recognized and authori-
tative organs of the Democratic party, the
rage for marrying black people, which has
taken possession of the Republican party, is
rather on the increase 1t is said, we know
not with what truth, that the Union League
Club has fitted up night-bell at its door in
Union-square, and keeps black minister
on the premises, who marries all couples Of
different colors at any. hour of the
day or night. An effort is said to
have been made by the leaders Of
the party to stave off these alliances until
after the meeting Of the Convention next
July, when the campaign would have fair
ly commenced; but 1t was all in vain. The
radicals have carried everything before
them. and, If things go on at their present
rate, it is feared that in three months every
white man who is not connected by mar
riage with col0red family, will be 'read
out of the party. The gusto with which
the young people 60 into this insane move
ment is something at once disgusting and
alarming. Two duels are said to have been
already fought about one middle-aged black
washerwoman, the rivals being young men
Of the best society; and those families
whose colored servants have remained with
them up to the present, have been compell-
ed to give them notice, owing to the crowds
of wealthy but degraded white men who
throng the basement for the purpose of So
liciting the honor ~ Of their hands. We
shrink from putting on paper the stories
which reach as as to the prevalence
amongst young white ladies of preference
for colored men--pure blacks having the
precedence In all cases where there Is room
for choice. We will only say that there

Mr.. 7. NJ. Adams, 800 Twelfth street, New York,

and by the time he had used eighteen boxes, he was
entirely cured of rheumatism, and the strength and

Ths Connecticut Election-SOldlers
Marching Home.

The Connecticut election takes place on
Monday, April 4. For that reason thou
sands of soldiers are being taken from the
! army in the field, and sent home to vote-to
vote the Administration party ticket-the
success of that ticket being considered by the
] powers at Washington that control military
. movements, more important than victories
over rebels in arms against the Government.
We copy the following from the Washing
ton correspondence Of theHNew York Er-
! press: rs ilrf - gtErg s}r9fT 7
Whether Richmond is to be taken or not,
is uncertain; but there is no doubt that Con-
necticut is-if Mr.. Lincoln can take tim
asmuch as the army, instead ofbeing en- route
Southwark, is, in part, at least on its way
Eastward.
Besides the march of the Connecticut
troops in and around the city of New York,
transportation was provided for whom, by
an order from Washington, the Army ofthe
Potomac, 800 strong certainly, If not strong
er, is under way from Washington to New
Haven and Hartford.
About three hundred soldiers belonging
to the First Connecticut Heavy Artillery are
about to leave for home. The object of the
movement undoubtedly is to control the
coming election in that State. ~

Mcclellan and Grant--Then and
a rH Now.

AZ Two years ago this spring, the radical
papers and leaders were crying out vocifer-
ously for an Immediate forward movement
g. Of the army under General MCCLELLAN
Now they are as patient as lambs under the
quiet of General GRANT. 1t is sug-
gested that they may have learned little
wisdom; but whether or no, it is to be
hoped General GRANT will move the
Army Of the Potomac hairs breadth until
he feels himself fully ready. 1t is his only
chance of success. Ia !.
8 II is curious, and ought to be instructing
TO some thoughtless andhair-brained peo-
pie. to mark the difference in the treatment
of MCCLELLAN and GRANT. The former
was villifed, prosecuted andhounded out of
command of the army, because he wanted
the men and means he deemed barely suffi-
cient to do the work required of him. That
was refused; and now after the lapse of
two years, and agrcat waste Of treasure and
blood, the very same things MCCLELLAN
asked for, have to be given to another.
General GRANT, as is stated, says he must
udfS o<ju5VtV tiCtt W thuhC al CilCCblNC du-
vance upon Richmond. Yet General Nc
CLELLAN was sent to the Penininsula with
half that number. Well, ''the Government
at the White House appears to be rubbing
its eyes, and getting glimpse of the truth
at last. If GRANT should get the men and
other means he thinks requisite, and is not
interfered with, nor his army depleted for
the defense of Washington, or for the pur-
pose Of carrying elections, he may accom-
plish something this spring or summer
But should he bring to pass the capture of
the rebel Capital, what disgrace will still
cling to an Administration that two years
ago, should have used the same means now
being put forth. and achieved the success
now resting only in anticipation.

Taxntion--sidney smiths Warming

Sidney smiths Warming
An Administration paper appropriately
republishes the famous passage below,quot-
ed from an article by SIDNEY SMITH, which
was contributed long ago to The Edinburgh
Review. We reproduce it as follows:
We can inform Jonathan what are newt
able consequences of being too fond OF glory
TAXES upon every article which enters into
the mouth, or covers the back, or is placed
under the foot; taxes upon everything which
It is pleasantto see, heur, feel, smell or taste;
taxes upon warmth, light and locomotion;
taxes on everything on earth and the waters
under the earth; on everything that comes
from abroad, or is grown at home; taxes on
the raw material, taxes on every fresh value
that Is added to 1t by the industry OF man;
taxes on the sauce which pampers mans
annette. and the drug that restores him to
health: on the ermine which decorates the
Judge and the rope which hangs the crimi-
nal: on the poor mans salt and the rich
mans spice; on the brass nails OF the coffin,
and the ribands of the bride; at bed or
board, couchant or levant, we must pay.
The schoolboy whips his taxed top; the
beardless youth manages his taxed horse
with a taxed bride ON taxed road; and
the diving Englishman pouring his medi-
cine, which has paid seven per cent, into a
spoon that has paid fifteen per cent, filings
himself back onhis chintz bed which has paid
twenty-five per cent, maks his will on an
eight pound stamp, and expires in the arms
OF an apothecary who paid license of one
hundred pounds for the privilege Of putting
him to death. His whole property Is then
Immediately taxed from two to ten per
cent. Besides the probate, large fees are
demanded for burying him IN the chancel ;
his virtues are handed down to posterity on
taxed marble; and he Is gathered to his
fathers to be taxed no more. In addition
to all this, the habit Of dealing with large
sums will make the government avaricious
and profise and the system itself Will in
fallibIy generate the base vermin Of spies
and informers, and still more pestilent race
of political tools and retainers Of the mean
ess aud most odious description; while the
prodigious patronage which the collecting
of this splendid revenue will throw into the
hands OF government win invest it with SO
vast an influence, and hold ont such means
and Temptations 10 corruption, as all the
