in w-htch they have ne magazines or depots,
and. which has already been thoroughly
exJiausrcJ rf its resources. Hence, Curtis
, beftre this time, have found himself in a
very embarrasoing situation. , The dispar-"
ity between his force and that under Gen.
Price is not very great, end is rapidly dis-
app-eanng on account f accessions to the
Confederate army. He will thus soon lose
tail superiority of numbers on which alone
he relies. In the meantime he will find
hij own army seriously diminished in
strengih by everyday' delay -by aickness,
, the difficulty. of obtaining supplies tor" the
xien, and the impossibility, at this season,;'
ot procuring forage for the horses. Hence.
a military necessity require him either to
fight at once or to retreat.-. If ho fights, we
entertain no doubt of the result. He will
" be badly beaten, and his army will run the
, risk of being cut to pieces by Price's forces.
. We look confidently for accounts of a bril
liant triumph of oar arms in that quarter,
or for a speedy retreat of the enemy not
only trom Arkansas, but from Southwestern
Missouri. Eitherthe latter movement or a
retreat must soon take place.
Northern Affairs.
We have been permitted by a friend to
prue a New York Herald of 'March th'.
Though not as late as intelligence received
through other channels, it may contain a
few items of interest, which we "condense
here :
Washington's Birthday was celebrated in
London by a public breakfast at the Free
man's Tavern. The "Bishop ot Ohio"
presided; about' two hundred ladies and
gentlemen were present; and Minister C.
F. Adams made a speech.. ' '
The entire floating debt of th
Government is variously estimated at lrom
375,000,000 to $100,000,000, which is to be
liquidated by $1000 "certificates of indebt
rdncss," payable one year after date, or
earlisr at the option of the Government.
la other words, the Government is staving
. off the payment of its debts one year Iony
er, by paying its creditors with these SI 000
certificates, instead of the money which is
due to them; thus exhibiting-a decided
weakness in the knees in its monetary
affairs. . . ; - t

- Uritlub Commerce
- A very forcible writer in : one of - the
London periodicals, more than two years
ago, had the following extraordinary pas
sage in his essay, which has never been
published in this country, and certainly is
entitled to consideration as leading to a
vast range of thought connected with our
present condition and future prospects.
There is a marked omission, which the
self-love of a British subject doubtless was
instrumental in causing. We refer to the
stakablo and invincible selfishness
istinguishes British commerce. In
try under the sun, if, perhaps, we
except Yankeedom, has it been so prover
bial.' Claiming all that is noble and grand,
what is mean and selfish is entirely over
looked: Here is the extract :
"In this world there is no power, Jhow-
evebenignant, -which, the devil does not
somewhere wield as the instrument of the
torture and degradation of" mankind.
The church herself has been the mother
of ihe most awful cruelties which have
everjormented, as well as of the largest
benedictions jvhich-have ever enriched the
world. Not otherwise is iL, with com
merce. In itself, essentially, commerce's
the flesh which clothes that great chris
tian idea, the brotherhood of mankind.
The type, the skeleton, the joints and
bands, are of yet diviner texture : but the
flesh which clothes them is the commerce
of men. It rests fundamentally on the
truth that men need each other's minis
tries ; and it fulfills those ministries, des
pite treeless deserts and foaming seas.
Commerce has led the march of the grand
est revolutions, and has opened the tracks
of the most fruitful discoveries. She has
exercised, and. still does exercise, the
manifest energies, the mo'st pure and self-
denying efforts of mankind. She has se
cured for the truth and treedom of our
political constitution and our social habits,
the preponderating influence among the
nations of the earth.' This is, perhaps
her loftiest and benignest function. She
confers the practical power, the weight of
influence, decisively on the people ' most
distinguished by soberness, industry, har
dihood, and truth In the long tun, she
puts the sceptre into the hand of freedom,
mantles industry with the imperial people,
and invests tried manliness with the crown.
The victory, of. British commerce is the
victory of all the qualities which make
bur greatness pluck, patience, industry,
inventive and admirable skill.'
I Is it not commerce now that impels the
Northern States to attempt to crush out
our own Confederacy, or subjugate it into
a dependency," contributing its fertile fields
and rich products to the. payment of the
enormous debt incurred in this infamous
crusade against a people's natural and po-
liticil rights ? Is it not the offspring of
avarice, in this Instance, of unmitigated
selfishness, the very outpouring of wicked
ambition and unhallowed fanaticism ?

The Northenl Government,' which re
sorts .to this extreme and almost obsolute
action of war, has hitherto shown itself
almost .impotent in the ordinary operar
tions of war, though having in the field
the largest army the world ever saw. And
again, the object of tne war renders such
an act -jpBiiliarIy; insensate the object
being lo bring back as fellow-citizens un-
cer a democratic Republic, the people so
barbarously and uselessly injured, arid to
te-unite, as part of one country, the terii
tory,thu3 sought to be destroyed. Al
ready; as we are informed, that act has
given the French Emperor an opportunity
of again pressing upon our, Cabinet his ad
vice that Lurope; should at least to the
extent of recognizing as a fact the Con
federate Government, and not recognizing
as afact the Federal blockade do some-
thing "to ward fringing to an end a war
whose larbarity and very nature are a dis
credit to civilization and humanity. .
w is Known mat several montns ago
France urged the British povernment to
join her in recognizing the Southern Con.
tederacy, and disregarding ' the blockade.'
We hear from good sources that the French
Government has renewed that request,
and is pushing it with much eagerness ;
and it is considered certain that when tha
French Chambers meet on the 27th inst.
there will bo such expressions of French
opinion as will bring the question into at
least a critical position, and in' all proba
bility give much offense to the Americans.
Tfiere exists in Xondon an active and
growing party, including many members
of Parliament, having for its object an
immediate recognition of the Southern
Confederacy on certain understood terms.
This party is in communication with the
quai representatives of the South in Lon
don, and gives out that it sees its way to
a" desirable arrangement. 'Our informa
tion is that the South, acting through its
London agents, is at least willing to have
it understood that, in consideration of im".
mediate recognition and the disregard of
the paper blockade it would engage for
these three things a treaty of free trade ;
the prohibition of all import of slaves, and j
the freedom, of all blacks borrfhereafter.

From Florida.
The Richmond Dispatch of Friday says :
A dispatch was received in the early part
of the day and posted upon the bulletins,
that an engagement was going on in
Florida, and that strong hopes were enter
tained that Jour lorces, would capture
about three thousand of the enemy, with
whom they were contending. Whether
this hope has beerf realized we are not
able to say, as no later information with
reference to it had been received up to a
late hour last night. J The latest intelli
gence from the coast will be found under
our telegraphic head, which will be read
with interest.
Xlie New from Above.
From the Memphis Avalanche. ; '
The latest advices we had up to last eve
ning from the scene of so much interest,.
New Madrid, Island No. 10, Point Pleasant
and that neighborhood, were not of the most
cheering character, although not exactly
calculated to make us despond.
It seems, .from the best accounts that
reach us, that the enemy is in considerable
force having, at a reasonable calculation,
some 22,000 men in that vicinity; while our
force is not above 8,000.' The tents of the
Hessians were visible from the river, and
an offider of the steamer Kentucky, on
watch as that boat passed over the point,
counted fifteen hundred, which must have
fallen short of the real number. A shot
passed over the hurricane deck of the Ken
tucky, and showers of minnie and musket
balls flew after her as she sped away, but
she escaped scathlessl Her wary captain
had his lights extinguished as she went by
the point where lurking danger lay in wait.
To this fact may ler lucky escape be attrib
uted.
The position of ihe three places is difficult
to describe to thoce not acquainted with the
exceedingly tortuous course of the river in
that vicinity. ' lickman and New Madrid
are almost equi distant -from Island 10 the
former above and the latter below while
Point Pleasant, ilthough still Jower down
than New Madad, nearly the same dis
tance, is, by a jbend in the river, brought
quite parallel with the island.
It is said that al Madrid the enemy have
16,000 men, and d,b00 at the Point. Skir
mishes are com
the two. armies
nually taking place, and
are. within sight of each
other not morel than three miles apart.
Our scouts relieve some of their pickets
nigntiv.
We learn thai Commodore Hollins in
tended to shell fiih his gunboats the.coU
umn .at the PorTitbut no later, news has
been received. ; A desperate battle will no'
doubt be fought at that place ; but the attack
will hardly be made until the Lincolnites
are reinforced. Should not our brave-bands
likewise receive'. reinforcements, as they
can .still reach Island 10, where the force
is thought to be inadequate ? The import
ance of that post arises from the fact that
none of the enemy's gunboats can be of
the least avail, unless they pass it. The
aim of the enemy is doubtless" to cut ofj
We are not "much military," and assert
no intention to obtrude advice, buflt seems
tous that a greater concentration of strength
should have been effected around that im
portant section of the great river, instead
of separating the forces into detachments
to guard other placesi considered of import
ance. Our Reverses and what, they have

with much evil brought somo substantial'

This is not alL ; They have originated a
spirit of enquiry in Congress which will
result most happily for the great cause in

A Dry Summer. The probability .that
a dry summer will succeed the tremendous
rains and freshets of this winter, must oc
cur to every reflecting agriculturist. , In
this view, it will be important tha't. every
rudential measure should be adopted in
arranging for the crops, with a view to meet
this more than probable contingency.
Planters should select lands best adapted
to drought and plant at different times, so
as not to risk all upon the chances of one
