State. More than hundred men day are
being raised, and as good class of men as
was ever furnished by the State The quota
of Augusta is already full as well as that of
many other places. The 18th regiment is full
and more, the 18th is almost full and the 18th
is being recruited to-the maximum.
The recent act Of Congress not only puts
stop to substitute brokers, but also to recruit.

New York, March II.
The steamer Arago, from Port Royal 14th
INST, has arrived. She brings files OF the Sa-
rannah Herald and Port Royal papers.
A boat belonging to the steam sloop Juni-
alta, with ten men In it, had been swamped in
gale, and all lost but one.
The recruiting OF colored men in Charles
ton is brisk. c9
-Four blockade runners had run into Charles
ton harbor' and were captnred-the Syren,
Due de Chartres, Deer and Fox.
Rebel deserters are constantly coming into
Gen. Gilmores lines.
1t is thought that the torpedoes placed in
Charleston harbor by the rebels have been
washed away, as more have been found. The
only obstruction is line OF piles just above
Fort Sumter, with a passage way sufficient to
admit vessels. No difficulty is experienced in
going through.

Mr.. EDTroR:-The editorial in your paper
of yesterday, under the above head, warrants
me in asking Of you the favor of small space
to day.
You cannot be aware of the mischief done
TO the community by such articles appearing
as editorials; ii you were, ami quite sure that
your regard for the welfare OF our citizens,
would cause you to reject them at once.
II is the duty OF every man who feels an in
tersst in our city, to raise warning voice
against this most dangerous OF all speculs-
tions, and regret exceedingly that in SO do
ing must warn the community against some
Of our most respectable citizens. If such.
Wild aud mischievous speculations are to ex-
bt, hope, for the credit of our city, its lead
Ing men will keep aloof from it. The leading
business men, the professional men, the men
who influence all the important affairs of
state or city have no right to use that innu
ence to induce wild and uncertain opera
tions, which must and will produce great dis
tress to many Of small means. s

Eve thousand dollars were sent from this city
yesterday, by one company. This vast sum
was takea from among our business men and
merchants, who can ill afford, in the present
state OF uncertainty. to lose one dollar. Fears
are entertained by business men who sell on
credit, that their. customers may be in these
oil speculations, for, of course, most of them
keep dark about their Investments.
Bank officers are, am told, scrutinizing
the paper offered very closely. They are
wise in SO doing Ono Bank President told
in my hearing day or two since, that he
would not have or hold note of person
engaged in the oil speculation il he knew It,
am told that men who have laid by small
sum for wet day, ARE Withdrawing it from the
Savings Bake, and that even women are TAX

The Philadelphia papers of this week have
some thirty eight millions of oil shares adver-

We have more to fear in this country at the
present time from this fever of speculation,
than from all Of our large debt, from our
t,xes, or anything else resulting from the

caution that we are possessed of to carry the

US in staying this most dangerous of all evils
