ghly estimated. The present supply of sugar and molasses in the Confederacy is not heavy, and is being daily reduced. A few months more will, perhaps, suffice to consume it. As a substitute sorghum must supply the deficiency, and if every farmer will but take the pains to cultivate a few acres of the cane he will not only contribute to the production of a crop beneficial to the public, but one which will of necessity prove incentive to himself. In this connection we may state that Mr. Charles Y. Morriss, of this city, contemplates the erection of a mill for grinding cane and manufacturing molasses at some necessible point on the line of the canal between this city and Lynchburg. His intention is either to buy the cane and manufacture molasses for market, or to grind it upon shares for those who have not the means at home of manufacturing the molasses themselves. This should be an incentive to the farmers in that section of the State to engage in the cultivation of the sorghum, as

Rosecrans as "of an incendiary, disloyal, and traitorous character" The General complains that, although it is called a Catholic newspaper, it has no "ecclesiastical sanction, " and denounces its articles as "a libel on Catholics," with other very strong language. Therefore the Provost Marshal is ordered to seize the paper and punish the venders thereof. Indiana, we believe, is the only State that has been always in advance of calls for troops. It is now stated that on the first day of February last that State had furnished her qu

Through the politeness of the officers of the Exchange Bureau we have received Northern papers of Thursday last, 31st ult. We give a summary of the news they contain: Rebellion in Missouri and Illinois--troops Attacked — Insurgents entrenched. The papers contain the following account of a disturbance which has occurred in Missouri and Illinois. All the places mentioned are in the Northern portions of those States, and but a few miles distant from each other: St. Louis, Tuesday, March 29, 1864. --A special dispatch to the Democrat, from Charleston, Coles co says the Copperheads came into that town to attend Court yesterday, with guns concealed in their wagons and armed with pistols. Some soldiers in the Court-House yard were drawn into an affray, and a general fight occurred.

st going to England as a measure of security. We may thank Secretary Welles for the sending of our products to England. The subscriptions to the two hundred million loan to-day at the Sub-Treasury amounted to $94,300, and at the First National Bank to $151,000.--The subscriptions in Philadelphia have not yet reached a million of dollars in the aggregate. It is very evident that this loan is dragging heavily, and unless capitalists evince a more lively and generous spirit towards it Mr. Chase will be forced to come out with some more attractive plan to keep it at par. The loan will no doubt prove an advantageous one for permanent investment, more so perhaps in the course of time, than the five-twenty bonds, as it has longer to run, which to many is a great inducement.
