CAPT. w. +. AvERY.-Very general
regret is felt on account of tho re
tirement of this gentleman from tho
editorial staff of that excellent
paper, the Obseruer. He belongs to
historic family in tho old North
State, being the grandson Of that
revolutionary patriot, Wnighstill
Avery, Of tile signers Of the N1ecltlen
brg Docl aration, and u son of that
noble man, Col. Issac Avery, who,
with Roman fortitudc, put all his
sons in tho Confederate army, and
devoted his largo substance to the
Confederate cause. Three of these
sons wore slain in battle, and the
gray hairs of the honorable sire were
brought with SORROW to the grave.
Coming from such stock, Capt. A.
could not but be true to, principle,
and no has st,,rdily battled for the
right with fidelity and ability. We
hope that he will soon be at work
again in his appropriate field We
cannot afford to lose such a man in
these times Of venality, cringing
and cotruption.--Southern Home.

WHAT WE HAVE A RIGHTT0 EXPECT.

Besides benefting the whole country by
increasing the source of revenue, the building
of the levees by the Federal Government
would be pre-eminently an act of justice to
an important section, which has heretofore
received but little favor from Congress in any
form. A costly custom house filled with
strangers, fort on the Mississippi, q few
regiments of troops which are never needed,
a survey of the Gulf coast for the benefit of
Northern shipping, and the work now in pro-
gress at the mouths of the Mississippi, COM
prise the main part of all bounties be-
slowed upon the inhabitants of the great
alluvial region of the South. The
stepmother government has doled out her
favors grudgingly along the lower Mississippi,
quite in contrast with her liberal donations to
other and better loved localities This region
has poured q golden tide into the general cof-
fers ever since it began the production of cot
ton for export, but the tribute has met with
only a meager reciprocation. 1t is high time
that Congress should attempt to mete out to
the Mississippi Valley something like justice
in the distribution of assistance. A section
inhabited by tenth part Of the aggregate
population of the Republic only asks that
about hundredth part of the total revenues
of the government may be expended on
the levees Of Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas
and Tennessee. The section that produces

cotton enough to bring back foreign goods
and wares which pay sixteen or more millo
of dollars in duties into the Treasury, only
asks that one quarter of this great tn
butte shall be expended in keeping our
alluvial lands in such condition as to make
the production of future tribute possible. Let
Congress do for these four States but fraction
of what they do in the way of contributing for
the support Of the government and our peo-
pie will be content; or let Congress estimate
the value of the area to be benefited by
system of national levees, the number OF
inhabitants it contains, each as compared
with the other nine-tenths of the Re-
public, and then give US the benefit not OF
one-tenth, but barely fiftieth part OF the
governments annual outlay, and we will no
longer complain of injustice, Partially or
sectional favoritism.
Let it be remembered that the great and
most benefcent work now in progress at the
mouths of the Mississippi is for the benefit
of all the great region drained by that river
and its tributaries and not for Louisiana and
the Lower Basin alone. 1t is not to be con-
sidered and charged to us as Southern i'm
provement, being for the benefit of every
acre Of land throughout more than third
part of the Union. 1t is no more benefit OF
the cotton growers of the lower Mississippi
than to the grain growers of Kansas or Ohio
