d egress necessarily put an end to all the fisoal receipts which had been estimated in the budget. The very commerce which was to have been the fruitful source of taxation was sought to be annihilated; and the commodities raised for the express purpose of export, by means of which corresponding imports would have been paid for, were condemned to remain in the warehouses of the South. Thus the authorities at Washington destroyed the very revenue on which they had calculated. Mr. President Lincoln has now taken a step even more decided, having issued a proclamation suspending "all commercial intercourse with the South," so that by land as well as by sea eleven States are completely severed from the remaining twenty-three; and to this sweeping enactment it is evident that the Federal tax collectors cannot form an exception. The mails of the South are stopped, and the smuggler alone remains to carry on any precarious intercommunication. It is plain that the budget of the last session

ght to have a special department for the punishment of little children, when they do not appear upon the screet either in a ghastly white, or a solemn blue, or in a pattern of the Stars and "Stripes" aforesaid, which should be presided over by Mrs. Lincoln, who should spank them soundly and put them to bed, where they could cry their little eyes out all night, and not be permitted ever to see their parents till they took the oath of allegiance, acknowledged the consolidation theory of the American Government to be the only true one, and Abraham Lincoln to be the most just, benignant and beautiful of human beings. We have never heard before of any Government, however deepotic, making war upon little children. There is no better test in the world of a man's kindliness of nature than this. Even the Devil is said to give a wide berth to little children, and good angels to be always hovering round them. Is it reserved for this gloomy ogre at Washington, whose myrmidons at Baltimore

Man Yellott; Esq. --This well-known ander, whose zeal in the cause of the has reflected credit upon the old Whig party of his State, he having been one of the first men in Baltimore to denounce publicly the Back Republican proclivities of the Patriot, which under the pretence of going with Mr. for Bell, was giving "aid and comfort" to Lincoln, and having since steadily adhered to Southern principles through evil and good report appeared in our paper of yesterday morning disguised as Tellott. Though the stake was merely a typographical one, our regard for this high-toned gentleman induces thus to correct it.

Wreck of the Sumter. --We regret to chronicle the wreck of that gallant Confederate vessel, the Smater. She has been a scourge of the seas to Northera commerce, and her Commander is one of the most enterprising and heroic of seamen. To be wrecked, however, was a better fate than falling into the hands of the Lincoln despotism. Old ocean, more merciful than the Washington tyrant, spared the brave officers and crew, and all reached land in safety. Our enemies may rejoice over the wreck of the Sumter, but the spirit that set her afloat is not shipwrecked, and will never cease sending forth Sumters upon the waves as long as the forest a furnish timber and the billows roll.

keys, pocket-book, letters, etc. At his rooms was found a quantity of valuable deeds of properties in Washington, Baltimore, and Philadelphia, letters from a brother (Chas. H. Winder) residing in Washington, and from the Brigadier Winder, of a more Southern latitude. Among the curiosities of the place were the sword of Gen. W. H. Winder, of the war of 1812, and a lot of historical relics and letters. Some of the letters, it is said, reveal the way of thinking in the South, prior to Mr. Lincoln's election, showing conclusively a foregone intention to disrupt the Union.--Others detail fragments of conversation to which James Buchanan was a party, and exhibit a general looseness of sentiment in the presence of that functionary which might, at this time, be construed into treason. We believe, however, that none of the documents directly inculpate Winder; because, although most of them are filled with treason, they cannot be proved to have been written by the prisoner. He was, how

War upon colors. --The Administration of Lincoln appears to be determined that there shall no longer be any variety of colors in the dress of the Northern people. The old tyranny of the Roundheads is to be revived, and the fashion of a man's apparel and the cut of his hair, to be regarded as indicative of his political princf their wardrobe before they put it on, to see whether it conforms to the cerulean edict of that first-born offspring of the Sun and full brother of the Moon, Abraham Lincoln. We apprehend that this august potentate will enlarge the sphere of his crusade against colors till he has obliterated everything like variety from the uRebels who provoked his displeasure, and that there is Peace between God and the earth. Let the rail splitter at once authorize Butler to announce that a victorious column will early in the autumn direct its march a pursuit of the rainbow, and arrest and commit it to Fort Lafayette on a charge of high treason to Abraham Lincoln!

The System of unconstitutional, unlawful and despotic arrests and imprisonments now carried on by the Lincoln Government, is an evidence of conscious weakness, and would never be resorted to by a government which had the slightest confidence in its own strength. That nothing of the kind occurs under the Administration of President Davis, is a clear demonstration that the Southern Government is embedded in the popular affections, and that thrice armed in that panoply, it feels secure, both of the justice and the might of its cause.

A letter from Leslie Combs. --We mentioned under our telegraph head, a few days ago, the fact that Gen. Leslie Combs had written a coercion letter. The following is the original, which was read at the "People's Convention," at Syracuse, N. Y., on the th inst. It shows that Leslie Combs is worse, if possible, than Lincoln: Frankfort, Ky. Sept. 4th. Resewell Graves: Dear Sir --Yours of the 30th enclosure are received. These peace meetings with us, and I presume every where, are mere soft words for treason, and we shall not treat them. I am gratified to find you still at your post, and have not caught the Bull Run panio, which has done some mischief in Kentucky. I am on guard all the time, and ready for action. If the rebels dare make a war upon us, we will sweep them clean, and rapidly. We are wide awake, and defy your malice as much as we scorn their blusing. The Union, the Constitution and enforcement of the laws must be kept everywhere, and all mere pa
