'J L.e Confederacy learns from general officer j ist down, that liht skirmish ing began cn Saturday. The intelligence on Sundav and Monday was that skiria'shing and the convention, that Mr. Trenholm was the intel lectual adumbration of Mr. MemmiDger, and that tbe convention In snbmitting its programme "spak? as one having act tonty." We would bave thought, that Mr. Memminger ire this would bate learnt d that hia persuasion, v.ry sin cerely held when he was appointed to bis presmt p si tioo, that Charleston fuaocial administration was a sufficient Intellectual basis (r the administration of the Confederate treasury in a time like this was a elusioa We would also have thought that he would bave learn ed by experience, that making a debt is not tbe ooly idi or alternative of financial administratioa ia a time of war, that creating a current debt in issues cf creait to meet the wants of tbe Government, to be absorbed hereafter in interest paying forms cf longer date, or postponed periods of payment are not the only set erne of finance. Tfae goyerBmeut, owing to the newness of its politi cal condition, having no revenues or permanent source of receipt, the Secretary seemed to think there was but one reaourse, and that was to create a debt, that there was but one resource, and that w m to use the currency of the banks until it was ex hauskd or frightened tff.and then, io default, ita owo credits to meet the current wants of the government, and fiKid them its they iD creased or accumulated. Io a city liki Charleston, or a email State, whose exigencies are few, and wants were bat the normal demands of a time of peac, sash administration was practicable arid obvious ; but wten the demand on tbe treasury in a wei k were mor. tLnr. tb.3 denands on South Carolina in a yeir, it followed that neither the one nor the other would answer ; that, the nistinted issue of currency would, by a plethora in proportion to tbe occurring needs of the government, break government and country both down beyocd the power of ultimate, much lees cotemporonecu3 resurrcc tion or restitution, throngh the employment of an agency so slow, and as liable to obstructions in its operation as tba. of funding. As a man, ins'.ead of giving property for the payment of a debt, property which his creditors are willing to take, will give his current notes of hand, to be taken up by interest bear ing notes having a longer lime to run, until his prop- eriy is aoscroaa ten times over, so the cv eretary seems to have forgotten, so far, that there is any property in the country, a&d enly to have thought boat notes acd bonds are the government's only resource. He peems to have a holy horror of taxation, taxation proportion ate to thb want, it may be, because taxation is a meth od too obvious f.ir a place an.-oug thj mysteries of finance, c because he may have inherited tho old idea of political economy, that a ratiotal debt i a national blessir g.

We rail attention to the following extract - from the New Yoik Herald, showing the lamentable condition of tie commerce of the Unibd States. It is a frai.k admission of the prowess and enterprise of our gallai.t little Navy, and au r ckcowledi-mont of the inin which has befallen the carrying trade of the United Stales Our naval. authorities have not received the ceiit ou-' to the aWe manner in which ihitf brancrh oi the publa defence has been manuged ; and that, too. under disad vantages which it was thought could not bo overcome. They have forced from the enemy admission that mr small Navy hns b cn manage! with more ability tla some if our own por! are willing to concede : It is ir.d ed most galling to the national pride that four or five flret Anglo rebel.crui.-?rs should b? allowed to drive our commerce from the sees and defy our navy of five or cix hundred vesscb cf wcr. Tractically v.e have now no American commerce. Neutral ships do a!! our carrying trade, and the rtrajorify of these tu utrai shitr arc owned by Englishmen, who tLu3 reap the ot, ly profi 3 of the Anglo rebel depredations upon cur m.r charj5. Trading vcistla ate advertised in our co!umr.r to ?a;l 011 such ao.d such day3 ' under neutral il igs,'' a. if tie fhg i f the Union, whose shelter comm. re osce eagerly sought, were no to be t voided like u prstile-.ee. Three years aso twi'-e tr mat v American than European vessels cleared from New York. Now the proportion is revcrstd. Tho Lumber oi foreijru vessels clearirg fro.ii this seaport is double the number of American vo3a!s, and, of course, the cumber of arrivals is divided iu the samcra'io. No American can consider these- facts with ccmpUccLcy or iudifloreticc. The sentinitntd which they aroii-e arc t a decidedly different sort. We have been gru-uoliia; about them quite Jong enough. 'Ihe time has mw nr rived for prompt aLd decisive action. It we were at war with somo crieat naval Po.vir w. might )ook upon this destruction of enr commerco ti some of t.Ue LeecEsary eviis of v,-ar, and might colsoic ourselves with the reflection tlait wc had a"t leust th: chance of retaliation.
