THE SIEGE OF vuCKsBURC.

The New Orleans Times, of
Monday, has an editorial notice Of
the letter of one of our fellow.
citizens, in reference to the siege
of Vicksburg, addressed to the
New Orleans Picayunc, and trans
ferrcd to our columns 4 few days

purpose of making plain the mex

charges of treachcry and corrup-

Our merchants will hail with a

unremunerative price Of our sole
hope and stay for aprOsperous BUSH
ness seasOn--that is to say, cotton
the increase of money and business
consequent upon the influx Of visi-
tors will be doubly welcome. From
ell appearances the occasion will be
9 grand success, the attendance will
be large and the exhibitions in
every department worthy and cred
table to the gentlemen whose I'M
firing and self.saCrifcing efforts
have contributed so very far to
place matters upon their present
favorable footing.
What has been done already to
make this Fair what it has been and
what it lie, those only know who
have had it to do. But they have
done their parts and done them
well and with no hope Of reward
other than the satisfaction Of duty
performed, unless the people, for
whom they have labored and whose
pleasure and interest has been their
consideration, are a%ppreciative and
thoughtful enough TO make their
satisfaction known.
We are glad to know that II the
weather proves favorable every.
thing will go of "as merry as a mar
riage bell"
While circumstances at present
unsurmountable forbid that we
should hope to make such exhibit
tons, especially in the mechanical
department, as are to be seen at the
Fairs OF New Orleans and st.
Louis, and therefore, our visitors
will not expect such great attain.
ments, yet when our means and OPP
portunities are considered we are
sure It will be seen, that full justice
has been done by those means and
opportunities.
Let the people of Warren county
especially, and those Of this section
generally, use every endeavor to
secure the presence of others in our
city during the coming week, and
be certain that they come them
selves. Let them remember that
this is the peoples Fair; it is in
tended for their pleasure and pro-
fit, and therefore it is not only Q
pleasure but a duty to attend.
To the ladies VIC look for the
finest and most extensive display
not only of their charming persons
but of their wonderful handiwork
Let them relax no effort TO insure
large attendance aud q creditablC

MeCardle, who vas q Confeds1ate
staff officer and adviser Of General
PembertOn throughout The siege
and at the surrender Of Yicks-
burg, places beyond al doubt or
question, the honesty and fidelity
of General Pemberton. Il ought
to afford no satisfaction 10 any
Confederate, to any Southern gen.
tleman, or patriot to imagine or
suspect treason on the part Of any
of the chieftains who were trusted
with the defense Of their cause,
least of all one who had the con.
tidence and full endorsement Of the
President Of the Confederacy, in
whom all felt, and had good reas.
on to feel, implicit confidence.
We hardly think it necessary to
reproduce the proofs, so clearly
presented by Colonel McCardle,
of the utter groundlessness of the
"hints and insinuations'' against
General Pemberton. But we may
be excused for referring to a re-
cent event, as affording a strong
illustration of the injustice and
inconsistency with which man
kind is too frequently chargeable
when it yields to passion, to blind
suspicious and sudden gusts of
temper and chagrin.
We refer to the remarkable con.
trast Of the opinions and feelings
of many persons in regard to the
defense of Vicksburg with those
manifested towards General vi.
rich and his brave garrison in the
recent defense Of Strasburg. The
situation of these two beleagured
towns were remarkably similar,
except that the disproportion in
material, armament and means of
defense and oiEense, between the
bcsiegers and beSioged, at Vicks.
burg, was much greater than that
at Strasburg.
The siege and defence we're
maintained for precisely the same
number Of days, to-wit: forty-six
and the surrender and capitulation
were made on like terms. The
assaults on Vicksburg were more
frequent, more destructive, and
the lines defended by not more
than forty guns, nearly all ofsmall
calibre-were exposed to q con-
slant bombardment in front from
4 powerful fleet Of gunboats from
the river, and from the rear and on
all sides by q hundred pieces of
field artillery, and an infantry
force ofscventy thousand men. In
every aspect and incident of de-
termined, vigorous and vigilant
defense against an oyerpowering
force, the defence of Vicksburg
fully equalled that of Strasburg.
Yet Gen. Ulrich, who command.
ed in the latter affair, is applauded
by the whole world for his heroism
fortitude and tenacity, whilst Gen.
PcmbCrton is made the target for
insinuations and hints ofthe most
calling and offensive character.
The "inexplicable' in history,
which the Picayune seeks to have
made plain, will be found to con-
sist in just such examples of in
justice, inconsistency and blind
and hayward prejudice, and ca.
price as are manifested in these
antagonistic views of trans.
actions so identical in all re.
respects as the sieges of Vicks-
burg and Strasburg.

DAILY COTTON REPORT l. WEEK.
LY COMMERCIAL REVIEW.

THURSDAY EVENING, Oct. 20, 20.
Three consecutivcly active days
in cotton, and ut comparatively full
prices, should be enough 10 inspirit
the planter, and lenda smile to the
melancholy merchant. The general
market opened this morning very
much the same as at the close OF
last evening, but towards noon
Liverpool and New York both
eascd of, leaving New Orleans,
which should be the pulse OF cotton
TO sustain prices. The effect on the
market here in the carly part ofthc.
day, was rather to keep buyers aud
sellers apart, except in II or two
instances, where purchases were
made at the quotations OF yeStcr-
day. Later however, the demand
became more general, based. we un-
dcrstand OF private intelligence
from New Orleans.
Our attention has been called to
cotton brought from the country in
seed and ginned in the city. The
cotton is badly baled and wretched-
" ginned. The staple is almost en-
tirely destroyed, and the value of
the cotton therefor very much de-
preciated. We mention this not
only for the benfit of those engaged
in the ginning business, but for the
planter and the buyer. 1t is a fault
which can be remedied, and to
which instant attention should be
given.
We notice sales of30 bales al l3% ;
IS bales at 1874 II bales at IA, and
a few bales OF a strict grade of mid
ding at l416 @I4k. We sum up
the entire sales of the day at So
bales. Quite an amount OF cotton
passed through the city to-day, but
principally for forwarding.
Our closing quotations are un'
changed from those of yesterday
