From the Raleigh Progress, April Isl
PHILOSOPHY.


The local does not pretend to be q
philosopher, but he has found great ad
vantage, at lines, calling philosophy tc
his aid. Such was the case on last
Wednesday night. Squads Of confeder-
ate cavalry were dashing about our streets,
and it was known that the Federals would
enter the next morning. Our better half
and another widow, who lived next door,
were nervous and restless--in fact, they
were frightened. They would meet at
the fence running between the two
houses, not to allay, but to increase each
others fears. The cavalry, that night,
would rob and burn, and the Federals,
the next morning, would have all the ba
bies fried up for breakfast, and the women
roasted for dinner. The local tried to
rdicule them out of their fears, for there
is no use to try to reason women out Of
them. But ridicule failed. They con
suited together about burying things
but where? Finally they agreed upon a
place, and just then recollected they had
nothing TO bury. The local called phi
losophy to his aid, and, at his usual time,
went to bed. This provoked the wiaogs.
They did not call him a ''brute,' but it
is evident they thought him one. But
we phiIosophically went to sleep. Occa-
sionly his widosO would endeavor TO rouse
him. "Just listen to the cavalry--they
are drunk. and whooping and shouting
about the streets. How can you lie there
and snore so ?" The local would reply
that he did hear them, and then would
turn over and snore on the other side,
which the aOidows declared was "provo-
king" He only replied that they would
be still more provoked the next morning
when they found out their babies were
not to be fried nor themselves roasted.
Thus passed off the night, the Local hav-
ing philosOphically slept petty well,c
sidering, and the s0iaoacs having scarcely
slept at all. Early on Thursday morn
ing the federal cavalry entered, and the
fist thing done was to leave guard at
every house, for the protection Of it and
its inmates. Tie widows all became sun
shine at once, Notwithstanding there was
drizzling rain. They forgot all about
being cooked and betook themselves to
cooking. The Local felt relieved. The.
day passed quietly away, and on Friday
morning, after good nights rest, we
all awoke, feeling that we had slep, in the
United States-very agreeable to widows.

with New York, and hence our merchants
are able to stand steady while the panic

Now these are falling like rotten tim

for the reason that it participated In the
imitation. but inasmuch as prices are being
forced below legitimate level, 9 reaction
must come, and those who are able to ride
the storm will suffer least. Meanwhile q
lesson Is being learned that may prevent
wild initiation in the future, and the panic
we are now experiencing will save the
trouble of having to labor through another
of equal dimensions when the rebellion
colIapses. 1t had been supposed that the
great panic was to come at the close of the
war; but we are having it in advance, and
shall therefore avoid it in future, unless,
when a reaction takes place, the country
enters on a new course of initiation.

TIE most striking of JEFF Davis' recent
recommendations is that of discArding the
use of paper and resorting to coin to pur-
chase supplies for the rebel army. The
articles seized should not be assessed at a
paper valuation, but at the cola valuation
"NOue believe" he says, "that the govern
ment can ever redeem in coin the obligs.
ton TO pay fifty dollars bushel for corn
or seven hundred dollars a barrel for
four" He does not say where the coin ia
to be found for this purchase of supplies
BuCtwo racTs would seem to indicate whore
he bad thought of looking for it. One is
that the Enquirer recommended the seizure
OF two millions of do lars in gold, which
two banks in Richmond held. The other
is, that within few days, these banks
have been calling in their bills, and re.
deemiug them in gold at the rate of six for
one. We can hardly doubt that the rebel
government would have Impressed" thai
gold if it had remained in the bank vaults
We presume that the banks feared it, and
soprOceeded to dispose of their specie.
Davis states most explicitly that the
measures adopted to raise revenue are in.
adequate to the wants ofthe rebel treasury
We are not informed that his Congress die
anything after his message to supply th,
want. 1t was simply impossible for thea
to do anything more. The Southernerr
cannot endure any higher taxation. Fl
nauciAlly the Contederacy is utterly ruined
Its military prospects are nearly as dark a
