Aye, let the Speculators and Extortioners think seriously of the question, "JFAaf then for it concerns them and their ill-gotten gains most nearly. People will not starve, and should not starve while there are bread and nest to save their lives." Food they, must have, and food they will have.- They may sot have the dollar to buy the pound of meat, and yet the pound of meat thty will hdvt. This is the plain state of the ease, and there is no use- in mincing matters. . The vile wretches who are a libel upon humanity and who have brought this fearful state of affairs about, need not lay the flittering unction to their gizzards ("sou" they have not) that their "operationa" have passed unnoticed. They ha b-asbBV.aad- marked, And will find to their cost, if there is not a rem edy found for present and threatened evil, that speculation in human life is not the sa fest business, looking at both person and purse f for- men to engage in. There are b8th meat and bread in the country sufficient to preclude actual want among the people, but the owners hoard them, and await yet higher nrices.

Among them we find the following in the Iredell Express : A Law to PaxrxsT Exto&tiojt. The Leg. islature will convene next Monday. . We suppose one among the first subjects that will engage their attention will be to pat a stop to monopo lizing food and clothing, oy traders and speculators, - and prevent extortion. This can be, done, effectually, in the following manner, and in no other way : - Pats a law that no articles. the product and manufacture of the State, which are used lor food and ciotnmg, snail oe exported from the State, nor shall they be sold to any person except for use and consumption, and not to be re told for a profit dajicg the war. Annex a heavy fine, one half to go to the nse of the informer, and imprisonment If it be not paid Do not make it a misdemeanor merely, for then the law would. be worthless, and speculators would regard It not and continue to ao as tbey had. been doing'. -THE EPIDEMIC IN WIXMINGTON.

The appointments of General Cabell, Phi fer and Armstrong to the command of brfgades, not bavins been confirmed, these officers .are ne cessarily relieved. The General commanding thanks these gentlemen for their skillful services and conspicuous gallantry on the battlefield of Corinth, and expresses his sorrow at being com pelled to relieve them ot their commands at this time, when the smoke of battle has barely unveil ed that bloody but to them glorious field. Not theirs, nor the troops who so nobly fought the battle of Corinth, the fault of failure that mis- lonune is uu. By order of Gen. Van Dorn. M. M. KliLMEL, A. A. G. It wilt be seen by the foregoing order, that Gen. Van Dern takes upon himself all the, responsibil ity for the the f 'failure" in his late battle at Cor inth. He says it' arose' from no fault either of his officers or his troops, but was his own misfortune This is true magnanimity, and as rare as it is genuine and manly. Suchyhfavowal evinces a nobility of soul that is as creditable to the head and" heart salne winning of n battle. Jt is the first instance of the kind since the war commenced whera the commanding officer has ' made public acknowledgement of his failure and confessed that the faalt lay St his own door. Well done. Gen. Van Dorn.' Wefeel. and the whole country will feel, that it can safely trust an officer capable of such rare magnanimity. TxLiaaAPKiNQ.

The Rebel Gen. Price is reported at General Grant's headquarters to have moved south from Holly SprLigs, either; with a view of attackfhg Corinth single handed, or , forming a junction at Huntsville or Tuscumbia with Bragg, thence to make a combined attack on Corinth. . The defen ces of Corinth are beiag strengthened on an ex tended scale. Over one hundred buildings in the line of the fortifications, now completed, have been appraised and torn down. The seminary building is now. used as an hospital, but will be destroyed, since it is in the range of our guns. The Tishomingo House, a very large building, situated in the centre of the town, just beside the railroad track, is to be converted into an hospital, for which it is well adapted. A dispatch to Gen. Curtis from Lieu tenant Col. Barnes, dated yesterday from Jackson Co., Missouri, states that he has been pursuing Quan troll's band of guerillas with cavalry. .

The Admiral, upoaji receiving the represen tations cf the Consul, " forthwith .ordered three British men-of-war in pursuit of the Ala bama, with orders, as we understand, to over haul that vessel of wrath, and convey bero some British port, where her violation of international law may be judicially inquired into.
