TINS 1xPoRrANCs or WILxINGroN.-By
the sealing Of the harbor Of Wilmington the
rebels are completely isolated from CONNER
cial oommunication with the outer world.
They are now hsmmcd in on every side. as
it we're, by wall Of fire, and must rely up
on their own resources to carry on the war
unaidcd by any foreign power. We quote
from the Richmond Dipsteh, Of January 3D.,
AN extract showing the commercial value of
this port to the rebels:
The President, in communication to Con

Of vessels arriving At two ports only, from

i.272 werc lost-not quite eleven per cent.
The special report Of the secretary OF the
treasury in relation 10 the matter, shows that
there have been imported into the confeder-
acy at the ports Of Wilmington and Charles
ton. since October 20, 1864, $685., 900
pounds Of meat, 1907 900 pounds Of lead.
1854 900 pounds ofszltpetre, 546, 0Oo! pairs
Of shoes. SD, O0C pairs Of blankets. 52O, 600
pounds Of coffee. 5000 rifles, 81 packages
Of revolvers, 2,6S9 packages of medicine, 43
cannon, with large quantity Of other arti-
cles Of which we need make no mention.
Besides these, many valuable stores and
supplies are brought by way ofthe northern
lines into. florida, by the port Of Galveston
and through Mexico, across the Rio Grande.
The shipsnsuts sf'cotesn made on Govern.

BAD PRAcrIcE.--We find the following
paragraph, headed "a Bad Practice" in
one Of our exchanges: '.Manv persons who

room soon becomes vitiated by the uncon-
sumed oil vapors, by the gas produced by
combustion, and also by the minute pa,ti-
cles Of smoke and SCOT which are thrown
off. Air thus poisoned is deadly in its ef.
fects, and the wonder is that more persons
