Our Southern journals appear to be de-
lighted with the clause in the new Army
Bill prohibiting any person who served the
late Confederate States, either in civil or
military capacity, from entering the army
of the United States. The Yorkville En-
guirer says: 1--WE can now listen to war
rumors, and hostile Congressional debates
against Great Britain, Mexico, and other
OFFENDERS, without any fears of ever being
dragged out again to dig trenches, or be-
come targets for rife practice. We shall
now advocate war fercely and persistently.
whenever the slightest provocation for it
arises. We think the United States ought
to lick Great Britain at once for her past
offences Cuba might at the same time, be
wrested from that crazy old power, Spain,
and Macmillan unseated in Mexico. Our

Agricultural Fafrn.

The praiseworthy efforts and energetic endeayors
ofsome Of our enterprisng citizens to get up an
agricultural fair association in this city, will it is
to be hoped, elicit cordial and satisfactory
response. The new era on which we have entered
calls imperiously for new ideas, and varied deYel
opments Of industry. These necessities are clear
to everybody. We know, and we see that we pos
sess vast resources productive soil, genial
climate all, in short, that nature can bestow on
community Behind these, we need only the Az
| tYity, the enterprise, and the sagacity to give
proper and energetic direction to our efforts. The
system of agricultural fairs-and we mean fairs
including the products Of all kinds of industry-is
an excellent system for the initiation Of industrial
development. It has been found to possess emf
nent advantages, and has been productive Of SO
many beneftsin other communities, that when once
1 adopted, it has never been abandoned
4 We may take as an illustration the case of the
city Of ST. Louis. Some years ago, an agricultural
{ and mechanical association was formed in that
place. under the auspices of which very success
full fair was held. That Occason-just before the
war-was the last instance, we believe, of an
industrial exhibition in this country. During the
last Eve years other thoughts have occupied the
people Of both sections The return of peace is,
however, accompanied with the revival of the
industrial spirit, and hence we find that the St..
Louis association has resolved to renew its exhibi-
tons. The association possesses extensive and
beautiful grounds and in these fair is soon to be
held, the present board of directors being now
engaged in elaborate preparations for the event.
The hall for the exclusive exhibition Of agricul-
tural implements and machinery is a building $50
feet by so. Another building, 63 by 80 feet, is
destined for the reception of garden products, and
another, 100 by 20 feet, is devoted to the exhibit
ton Of garden seeds. There is also a spacious
hall intended FOR the exhibition of carriages a
beautiful floral hall and an eating house, 100 by
rs feet Besides all these there is spacious and
magnificent amphitheater, containing 81 booths.
The rental Of these booths in 1860 amounted to
sl1 900, and it il calculated that they will produce
much more on the present occasion.
The new directors have likewise established a
Fair Ground Trotting Association" and have
constructed around their grounds a race course a
mile long and forty feet wide. The object Of the
association in introducing this feature is TO pro
mote an interest ia the raising of thoroughbred
! stock Their premiums are $1,000 for the fastest
tFotung stallion in harness; $500 for the fastest
tsoting mare or gelding $500 for the fastest
+ double team; 500 for the fastest Eve year old
g horse mare or gelaing-free to all; $500 for the
It fastest four year old $500 for beaten horsesfree
+ 70 all except the winners Of the hrst two pre-
s miums,

FINANCIAL AND CoMIERoIAL SUMMARY. The
Gold market has been rather inactive since our
last, without quotable variation Of any kind in
prices Sales yesterday were light, and the
market closed dull at 130@1S0k, which were the
opening figures and the ruling rates throughout
Foreign EEohaage-The movement yesterday
included sales Of several small bills and one round
amount. The market was dull and dropping
throughout, nevertheless, and the previous ruling
rates were but barely maintained. We repeat as
fellows, viz Bank Sterling, 148@144; clear bills,
13S@142; bill Of lading bills, 136@l3S; bank

meet which, some Of the banks have already 70
mitted green backs, Offerings Of private and

nominal, and rates rule as heretofore, with al
evident tendency, however, to still higher figures
The quotations, as reported, are for bank sight

3@5 cent, premium.
Baq1a Notes and Securities Sales Of the for

Consolidated Bonds at full prices. Ali of thu
Bank Notes and the latter classes Of Securitie
are held at advancing prices.
Cotton The market is very firm offerings ar
light, and most factors appear to be indifaren
about accepting the present ruling prices. Il
fact, the banks have at last concluded to advance
upon the staple, and il is generally believed tina
prices will go no lower, no matter what may turl
MP on the other side of the Atlantic Sales yester
day included $500 bales at 27929c. for ordinary

Flour, Corn, Oats, Bran and Hay, have been con

MASSACHUSETTS SLAyERs a gentleman Of
New York by the name Of Moore, has published
9 pamphlet with the view of refuting the asser-
zion ID often made by the radicals in Congress
that Massachusetts, never recognized or eneour-
aged slavery. Many journals, North, East and
West, have taken up The cudgels pro and contra;
but TIE evidence ID strong in Mr. Moore's favor.
The New York journal Of Commerce publishes
letter which we give below, the authenticity Of
which is not to be disputed showing that the
slave traders Of Massachusetts,, century ago,
were as haartless and brutal as their abolition
descendants Of the present day. The onlyreasons
why the PuIitans of our age are not engaged in
the traffic are that English cruisers make the
voyage from the coast Of Guinea to the shores of
the New World too hazardous and costly; that
the fostering kindness Of the Southern people has
too rapidly developed and multiplied the negro
race to require the bringing Of the unfortunate
barbarians from their native country and that
the procedure Of demolishing the work OF their
ancestors is more profitable and congenial--
involving, al they hope, the impoverishment, the
Illumination and misery Of people upon whom
they have always looked with Jealousy and
hatred.
Strange things have happened in this world ::

allotted by Scripture may witness the renewal of
