The CONFEDERATE DEBT. The Ma
tionol Republican, of Wednesday, has
an editorial to prove that, if the
Southern States are. according to
Stevens theory and assertion, 'con-
quered provinces, the United States,
as the conqueror, is bound, by the
law of nations, to pay the entire
Confederate debt. The Republican
says:
But it has been suggested that this
point has been guarded 10y having the
late rebels rcpudiate those Confede-
rate debts. A very little reflection,
however, will show that reputation
does not remove nor cancel the liza
bllity, at least, for the debts held in
Europe. We must extend our views
across the Atlantic for the data for
resolving this point. Take the case
OF Admiral Wallace and his associates.
who hold millions of Confederate.
bonds, as IN example. They are the
subjects OF Great Britain, and, by the
laws OF nations, are entitled to call
upon their Government to protect
and enforce Mei'' legal rights as against
the United States. Suppose the Bri-
tlsh Government shall entertain their
appeal, and demand the payment of
those bonds, on the ground that they
were created by le .ftcto Govern
ment and issued to British subjects,
and that the United States merely
occupies the position of conqueror OF
that Government, what answer can
we make to the demand? Is it not
obvious th:t we can make no sub
stantial answer whatever, if the Ste
vens theory be sound?

1t Is we'll known to newspaper read
ers, says the Federal Union, that
nearly or quite the whole press of
the Southern States have urged upon
1he planters the propricty aud neces-
sity Of raising more provisions, if
they had to curtail the cotton crop to
do it. We have no doubt this unani
nous appeal Of the press to the plant
crs has had a contrary effect to that
intended. Many planters, believing
that this strong appeal 20 them to
Cultivate grain instead of cotton,
would be needed by others, and that
consequently there would be less cot
ton and more grain planted than last
year. determined to plant more cot
ton. This rule, We believe, has been
adopted by the planters generally.
From all that we can hear, there will
be much larger crop Of cotton, and
less corn, planted this year than last.
Consequently, We may look out. if
the season is good, for a fall in the
price Of cotton and il rise in the price
of corn. II such system of farming
does not bring distress and poverty
and ruin npon the country. all his
tory and experience is Il cheat and a
lie The attachment which some men
feel towards cotton bales is u species
of idolatry-they literally worship
them. But God, in all ages, has pun
lshed idolatry of every kind.
