. which leads to the suspicion that there is in: ” ABRAHAM LINCOLN. -— our factories te obtain cotton? Few of ~~ ~pound, WEDNESDAY MORNING, JULY 13th. . ates hata = FOR PRESIDENT, FOR VICE PRESIDENT. ANDREW JOHNSON: Corrox AND. GoLD.—"Thé cotton fata». tne -hascome tous; says an Eastern paper, before ithas to Great Britain. Where are them have. any stock on hand; there is very little in New York ; all.attetmpts to obtain it from the South have fled ; the trading per. mits which brought someup the Mississippi aro cut off ; exchange is so bigh thar it cannot be.impyrted for less than $150 per onstantly going up. The ens tire dependence now is on the few blockade runners that we may captare; and that will be hardly ahandful for each mill ruoning:— Under these circumstances there ix nothing to prevent cotton being very dear—rendering it among rare articles and luxuries; and thers is nothing te prevent cotton goods advancing on present prices as much as they have in the past; and nothing that we can se6 to prevent a reduction wf production either by driving tho mills to an ‘absolute suspeusion or to short hours of labor.” We have been talking of « supply from Indi&, Brazil, and Egypt; but though they may produce large efops, it will be of no benefit to us if exchange rules eo high as to prolibit importation. In the face and eyes of all our victories, gold is now 286, with a es ¥ indian dati deeciaeien eo ~~. dueed iw foreign countries. Then “and not RS ne Rte i Mh 4 HSER ics We are treading bard upon. the-heelvol-reb« eldum in this matter; and all from our own folly and improvideice—the unrighteous OX=. travagance of the people, of every clase and condition. The importations in one week. ainoginted to fiveand-a half million dollars— that was the specie valuation ; our exportations on the same valuation were not ones" third as much. So it is from week to Week, and from month te month. There is no self-denial, nevér such extravagance before since time began; money govs like water,— Now. all these foreign inanufactares—andluxtries must be paid for in gold; and where ia that to como’ from? Our mines yield sbundantly, but the gold does nut go te Now York to be sent to the mint in Philadelphia, and thence circulated over the country aa in former dye, -but-it-is shipped direct to England. We have two streama of specio runving constantly to thy Bank in London ; one from our own State that takes the new gold, and the other from New York that exhausts the wld stock. With these suction hese in the vaults of our banking houses and drawing up from the depths of our mines, what is to prevent the advance in gold? Sumething must be done to bring down the price of gold. Success in the field will not do it so long as the foreign impors tations are as enormous as now. -Our peo ple must deny themselves the luxuries pros} until then will the advance in the price of gold cease. EXTRAVAGANCE —When upbraided with the charge of extravagence in the use of silks, laces, etc., the ladies have always retaliated that men were guilty of far greater extravagence in (he use of wines, cigara, etc. Recent statistices regarding the anoual importation of luxuries ghow the following: silks impor. ted, about $27,500,000; -laces, $1,500,000; embroideries, $4,500,000 ; total for luxuries fur ladies’ consumption, $33,500,000. Wines, over $4,000,000; spirits, $4,000 000; cigars, $4,000,000 * total gentlemen s luxuries, $12.” 000,000. ‘Total, $45,500,000. ‘These figures show that the extravagance of wouwan is uearly two-thirds more costly than that of man. BuTLer.— Simonton writes the Bulletin that Butler failed to perform what was expected of bim south of Richmond, and there. fore, Grant was compelled to make a chenge of base to the James to accomplish what Butler did not. The force given Butler was thought to be sufficient, but his military abilities were not equal to the business—so Simonton insinuates. Tue Aquila has been libelled by the Coast Wrecking Company fur salvage, as her pios prietore have long since surrendered her +t the Underwriters and they refused to receive ‘her. The libel is made for the purpose of. learning who is reaponvible for the payment . Plate dividing into smaller bands and seizing 3 Ropuers.—Jnformation ‘has been. obtained by the Provost Marshal, says the Bulletin, the southern counties an organization of: 200 or 300 desperste villians who ‘contemthe treasure buxes.of Wells, Fargo & -Co.,' on all the stage routes in the State. Two stages have been stopped and robbed of express matter on the Los Angeles route within a few duys past, and it is not at ali improbtable these robberies were committed by . parties who are co-operating with the uthors’ -of similar crimes-on the Washoe rotte, The . Provost Marshal has arrested one individual at San Jose, upon whose-persén-was found ” quantity of Confederate notes,{ and who is believed to have some knowledge of the existence and designs of the highwaymen’s urganization, which, if it really has an_ existence is also suspected to cherish an ulterior purpose in sympathy with the bigger crime of rebellion. Apart from-sach suspicions a8 these; enough 1s really known from the acts that have already-been committed to justify the utmost vigilance of the civil and military authorities, and to demafid the taking of every precaution by travelers themselves for tneir own precaution. er ASvuBJUGATED PEOPLE —The Circassians have at length been overcume arid subjugated by the Russians, showing that nums bere and wealth will succeed at last,— Though the Circassians numbered but four hundred thousand and the Russians siaty . millions, yet it has taken more than sixty years to conquer and subdue them. The war commenced in 1800, when Georgia was wrested from the Circassians and tmade a Russian Province ; but it has been only 41 care, oF since 1833, that the-war has been: ‘vigorously: prosecuted.” Then Schamy, appeared in the field and with Kasi Molay united the Circassians in defence of their nationality. Kasi was killed in battle in 1833, and Schamy! continued the defence until he was taken prisoner a few years ago, . and is tiow held under parole, though he is allowed to live like a prince at the Emper-. ora expense, Since his loas other leaders have continued the war till this year, wheo one-fourth of thé Whole people had died in defence of their liberties, and their last hope perished in the loss of Vandar, their.only re“Hinting atreighald. Now they are-emigrat=4 ing to Turkey, where in auother war they will be ready to volunteer against their old enemy and the destroyer of their nationality. NEWSPAPERS.—We are under obligations to Major Jack Stratman, for a liberal supply of Enstern papers. ~~ = MISTAKE.—In consequence of the falting of a type from our “form” on Monday night, we made the value of one dollar. in.

Lippincett's Gazetteer places the accent ou the second ayllable. PROTECTION AGAINST Dishonest Desrors.—A correspondent of the San Francisco Bulletin, writes: Without subjecting myself to a charge of disloyalty. I think Il may offer the following as atorm of pote that will, perhaps, protect us bere in California in our business trarisactions with each other, aud at the same time vot viulate the recent law of Congress : “Sixty days after date, without grace, lor value received, I promise to pay to the order of A.

The high price of sugar doubtless stimulated farmers to tap, during the present Spring, more than the usual sumber. of rock and red maples, and ss the flow of sap is reported to have been--very-great,it nay be safely concluded that the maple sugar cropof 1864 will far exceed that of any-former year: THE pavilions intended for the San Frans cisco Mechanic's Fair, are unking rapid progréss on Union Square. The frame of the . main buildings is already patup.

He made the trip from Omaha City, Nebraska Territory, te Sacramento in the short space of fifty-eight days. : sear A Monster Brick.—The employees ofthe Gould & Curry, says the Gold Hill News, cast a brick—the largest ever mape in the Territory, 158 poucds—valued at $4,300, as their contribution to the Saiitary Fund. A SCOTCHMAN has invented machinery by which mice can spin cotton yarn at a profit ol six shillings annually. That's a alight. advance. Rats have been used to.spin yarns in this country since '49; some of them are at it yet. @ THE Dichess de Berry haa recently lost 2,000,000 francs by stock speculations. ; Military Resolutions.
