Our X?vy. -We make some very, interesting . extracts * from u London (March 28) letter to the Newj York. Times : . . . A whole il.-ct ..? prfji ri .*.?"??3 rapidly as pos, sible, ostensibly for 1 hi? Emperor ol Ch\nnJ Every body'knows they are intended to'open?j the' Confederate ports. Everybody knowsjg that the Confederate loan was raised to pui-sjj chase (.heir'outnt. This was the reason'why f$ eighteen millions-nearly' g 100,000,000-waaf wanted. This was the reason why; the ?'stocks went lip to livo per cent premium, though ta-a ken ht eighty, and put on the market ?tj ninety. The simple truth of the matter ii?, that witbJ the'active*sympathy of tbe'upper classes,"'andi the wneutrality.' of tbe-Government, a strong-j party of English capitalists, cotton "specula-j! tors, ship-builders and merchants, bnvetakenf hp the cause of the South in earnest, and Sj mean to put it through. They have embark-H ed their millions, ana do not mean to losejs them. The Government cannot interfere 10T prevent it, and has no* disposition to do sb.e As Lord Palmerston said last night, if they g attempted to amend the law, they might raa-ceg it worse. The Government will be neutral It .may even pass over the seizure of the Po terhoff by Captain Wilke*. They will let the| North buy all the "hardware" in Birmingham. But they neither cati uor will prevent thej departure of a single one of the fourteen: steamers which Mr. Bright says ar? dttinyf out for the Confed?rate Government. Englani: ' as a Government, is not at war with you.l but English capitalists and manufacturers are,j and I do not see bow it is to be helped. The interest, you must grant, is a veryj strong one. Look at the millions of capital' rusting away io Lancashire ; look at the great? cotton manufacturing interest which has en-j circled the world; at the closed cotton ports,J the dragging war which shows no sign of J termination, the starving populations, already! beginning to break out into riot and disorder.! You talk of war. They ask nothing bett->r.1 The more you threaten, the less likely ihek Government will be to interf?re with theirg projects. A war, they think, wo?ld Booti? settle the. matter. You will take Canada. ? "Well, it was but the other day that Mr. Glad |j stone was for getting rid of that troublesome"! province on any terms. You will send oui privateers. If you do your ports will be block: aded, and all others closed against them, so that privateering will not be profitable. Ships will go armed with thu Armstrong guns, or be guarded by tner.-of-wnr steamers. That is the way Englishmen feel They are growing so irritated aud disgusted with the war that thev ar? ready for anything that will put an j end to it. Lord Harlington, in an election speech this? week, stated the whole case, lie had juMg come from America, where he had travejlec in both sections, and he w-is out and otu Southern, and declared that no union could be restored, nor could the South be Conque ed. This opinion was never so Grin as at this moment, is it strange that strong efforts should be mad*-to hasten a resuit in which faith is so general ? If the statements publicly made, ami ap pareutly based pn good authority, are to bi pelipyed, the Confederates, within a month, will ha\e at sea one of the nio3t formidable d^ets that ever steamed out upon the Atlan tic. The steamers uew preparing will he a. fleet, ns strong, and as powerful as British^ machinists eau malte them. You have not^ begun to fortify the Northern ports a day t -o soon, f cannot tell when tu-j blow will fall ; I onlv know that the Confederates here are In radiant jubilation. They care nothing about Vicksburg or Charleston. They ex pect to go home in " ninety days." They cai ejj nothing for the new Union movement in thee tyorth. Tjaey care not for re-Cognition. Tin P money market has recogni'f-d them-that Lsg enough. Jf cotton i* uot king, it is at least al ^acd subject, and bas given them a loan ol? $15,000,000, wit^ the pfjerof sis t'mes a.-J arneb. Tpat is glory enough. The Fall of Fripe?. The healthy iufluenco of tbe Tax Bil', which] has just become a law, is already making it? aelf felt in the provision market. Since the! leadiug features of the tax have obtained pub licity, the decline of prices, in Hour, rice and} other articles of food, has been steady and! unmistakeable. A variety of reasons arnj given to account for the fall ; some ?attribu ting it to the sudden contraction of the cur j rency by the recent fundingof so many mill-l ions of our redundant currency in C mfederatej bonds; and others alleging as a cause, thej restrictions lately imposed upon inter-Stste! shipments for the purposes of speculation.! Both these circumstances, doubtless, have' contributed, in a measure, to bril?-* ok~~' *'' reduction of prices ; but the agency that bas' been mainly instrumental in effecting th* we!-' come chango l>, !n fact, the new Confederate] tax. ' At no tim ?, we feel convinced, hus there existed any real scarcity of food in the South-1 ern States. But in every community, be-! ?idesand distinct from the speculators and' extortioners, there have been timi 1 capiial i?ta( who, investing their fuuds in an accumu lation of provisions, and refusing to sell, rath er with a!view to security than profit, havo yirtually withdrawn fro'n tho market a very large proportion of its natural supplies. An artificial scarcity has beou produced, while, ia truth, there was abundaaee in the land. But, during the last three weeks, prices have reached their acn.e, and there isa rea son to believe that the decline which has be gun is not yet ended. The new wheat and corn crops promise to be the heaviest ever known in the South, and will, ere long, be pressing 'u-?o the market. Thc policy of im porting provisions in large quantities has al ready been inaugurated, the well known Charleston firm, waose enterprise and tact bas already, in other respects, conferred incalcu lable benefits upon ibo country, taking ?the lead in this last and most important dtvcl opemeut of the blockade trade. With the prospect of this early and active competition in the market, and with thu cer tainty of the heavy tax upon hoarded produce wbioh must be paid early in the sommer, il is not strange tnat_kolderg should everywhere be cautiously relaxing t heir grasp upon thoii accumulated supplies. Nor need we be sur prised to find that, as those supplies, so lon; withV'ld, are wisely yielded to the demand there occurs sacha tumble ia the price 0 food, as will add new nervo to the arms n our soldiers in the field, and BCDd joy nm thankfulness to the heat ts of the whole peo pie.-Charleston Mercury 28th.
