To the Editor of the Whig: I have
just had a conversation with a very intel
ligent gentcmao Trout Washington : trom
this and other. sources, which 1 regard as
entirely trust-wortlij. I learn Unit the
North are building their hope on their
ability to iaree out the Confederacy.
They" reallybelieve that this is msible,
ai d are shaping their measures according
ly. This We know to beimply ridiculous;
for I to w i er lite presence of large armies"
and the abundance of money insy n-snlt j
in the eiihancetoeiit o( j-nevs at cenain
points there is not the slightest daiir
that our eneinjes. will Ik- graiinVd by wit

even now, supplies enough and tlie ap

and place beyond a persJ venture the ques
tion of subsistence. The man who cannot
serve in the army is d-iug the nexl liest
thing when ha aids lo sustain those who
are piling their lives on the bailie ground.
But my 'main design in addressiag you
this note is to call attention to two impor
tant facts in this conneciion." Hie first i
aa I gather from the source lo which I have

will have to oen its eyes to this fact, and

of 'negroes continue to be the successful

Uul the eves ot tlrts XSorthwit are
opening tq other and Tiporl ant coosidera
lions cotinecled with this unholy war. Mr,
'-tr-
CoX,of Ohio, in one ofhis recent speech,
says: The Western farmer, who is sell
his corn for leit :eiits a bushel, if be
does not use it for liiewood. is uol easily
satisfied, that there floes not exist some
where a way through which those who
act for him at Washington, may afford
hnn relief. At least he wiVif the relief
c n not be prospective, lie is perfectly
aware lhat, while Nijw England ia getting
tin btntfitt, the est trm'ay- fA
burthen of tkia axjr. lu New England
:lte uiercliahts and niannfacturVrs have
actumulaled fortunes willir Alladdin like
rapidity. Their wagi are higher, and
contracts abundant ; while the West, with
tlie Mississippi settled, is charged extttr
tioit.Ue rales 111 the trausporutioit of its
produce, and in the price of its purchases.
Its ieople are robbed by tariff, and roboed
on whallhey sell aud what they buy. Mr.
Beecher Las boasted t ha. God has given
the Yankee lhat ; intelligence that knows
how lo turn to gold nil il touches. Laugh

It is his insatiable cupidity, witlK his
Puritanism, which is now making men
study tie new Census; which makes New
York wonder why, with a less opuliiiioii,
New England has twelve Senators to her
two. Obid too, toiidvrs the fact that her
Mpuinliou is (greater by 435,294, than
five New Euglaud States, yet they have

which hampwrli the free intejvhangu and

shuts off the Competition of the world, and
gives lo New England fabrics the mouooly
among ten millions' of Westers farmers.
Why are we to pay hfiy per cent, more

I should say bihrly per cent adding the

that he would never lake that wooltbrougkv 'l

Soon after the conductor came along, and
stated that tbe wool could go, bat he moat
have the other hair of tbe sugar. There
was no appeal, and t other half followed

-- Briefly, it was a position taken by Pre:

CoDgress of Dec 2d, 1823, that the pow.
era of Europe would oot be permitted, to '
interfere by force, with the affairs of any
nation oil this continent.rXhJdAJaratiott
was regarded at the time by; foreigu,ii.i,
lions as bold and evco impudent; and '
many in the United States regarded jt as .
imprudent; since it committed their coue-
try to a armed Resistance of-any sueb V
European attemptf- But years after Years ii
it was affirrowl, especially by politiciaa
oi tne f spread eaglef order, antil vUie
whole world came to regard it as a sellssd
and .remissible policy. It ia completely
