The Courier takes up our comments
upon the gold panic, and attempts to be
very funny at our expense, because we
suggested to our readers that while gold
was appreciating or greenbacks were de-
preciating in value, our people, most of
whom in the West are producers, are
receiving more for the products of their
industry. Does Mr.. Thayer, or any of
his stripe, deny this proposition? Not
ut all, but content themselves with ex-
hibitions of silly twaddle.
Because produce goes up we never ar
gued that our people ought to be graft
fed over the going up Of gold. What
we intended to convey to our readers
was, that while the rebel emissaries OF
the North were endeavoring to bring
the credit of the government into dis
credit, they must remember that other
things besides gold were going up.

the most corrupt man in America, and
who headed the New York delegation

four years ago with boastful announce

manifesto, containing the usual rehash
of State sovereignty, unconquerability
of the South, desire to be let alone, etc.

A British subject who was impressed
into the rebel army at the South recent
ly escaped to our lines at Folly Island.
The Palmetto Herald publishes LONG
and interesting narrative from his pen
detailing his experience and the condi-
ton of affairs at the South. He saws
that since the British Consuls were or
dered away from the Confederacy, hard
indeed is the lot of the poor British sub
iect in the South Forsaken by his own
Government, and not able to reach the
country that has always been the home
of the down-troiden and oppressed, he
can only starve OF enter the rebel army.
Irishmen are not wanted at the South
but for the purpose of filing up the
ranks. Thousands of them are in their
graves, and many poor fellows maimsd
for life are, forgotten By the Government
for which they fought, and their families
now are starving, for the authorities care
not for any man when he ceases to be of
use to them
Notwithstanding the many evidences
of the heartless treatment which Irish
men and other foreigners have received
at the hands of the rebels, that have been
published and authenticated, We find
men in the North attempting to poison
the minds of our adopted citizens against
the Government and to array them on
the side Of the rebellion.

"RoUGHs AT THE FIRH-During the
progress of the FIRE yesterday morning, q
party of one hundred and fifty +" roughs,
q majority of whom were Irishmen, Wis
tied several of the burning establish
ments and assisted in removing some of
the goods. At each place they demand
ed two dollars an hour for their services,
and, on being refused they grew bolster
Gus, and threatened to interfere with all
labor devoted to the saving of property
and the extinguishing of the flames.
The facts were reported to Maj. Magru-
der, at the Exchange Barracks, who
promptly detailed a guard to quell the
threatened row. Affairs looked serious
at one time The roughs threatened re-
sistanee, and one of the ringleaders &C
tually attacked the Major. He received
several severe sabre blows over the head
for his demonstration, which exploded
his belligerent ideas considerably. The
party was scattered by the bsyonet. Two
of the. most violent ringleaders were
placed under arrest, and are now con-
fined in prison. We presume that they

Cincinnati, that the Roman Catholic sol
disrs Of our armies, who happen to be

Purcell sends the Tribune printed let

March IA, 1852, from which it appears
that our military ehaplAins are author
lied by the Pope to exercise their func-
tons anywhere in the Southern Confsd-

for bis speech, Mr.. Powell was put in the

until Mr.. Davis exhausted himself, be-
cause it was known, If this should be
