Tho True Iutorests of tho South. In looking into tho uistory of the South before tho war says tho "Columbia Phoenix'' it will bo found that since her earliest settle ment tho almost putir? labor of tho oouutry has been applied to agricolture, and that tho surplus produots havo becu shipped to a for eign market. The ''Newark (N. J.) Journ al" strikes tho nail on tho hoad, when it as serts that no oouutry has ovor acquired wealth by exporliug its manufactured product*. Now if the South is wise, she will ocaso to oarry on a traillo in which she always has boon and al ways must bo a loser?sho will set up for hor uelf, and instead of parting with tho products id" all her labor to support the balance of tho world, sho will in?nufuctuto hor owu olothiug, aud uot stopping at this, will prooocd to man ufacturo tho whole of hor orop, aud thoroby |W upon the world fora portiou of her form aos.

Ho was bornju Prince William Couuty, of that Stato, Soptombor 10, 1802. His parents were lost in tho conflagration of tho ltiohiiioiid Theatre, iu 1811, wbou ho was scut to boarding school, and subsequently, at a very early ago, was admittod as a uiomber of tho Richmond bar. Soon afterwards bo retired to a farm iu Hou' rico County, but taking an active part in pol itic!!, bo was olootod a moiubor of tho State Logislaturo iu 1833, and served iu that capac ity till 1839, when ho was elected to Congress, to whiuh bo was re elected in 18-11, and also to tho Thirtiotb Congress, after which be re sumed the praotioc of the law at Richmond.

No influence cculdswcrvc him from a principle or the discharge of a du ty. The writer knew him well und intimate ly before the war, and although differing with him in tho causo ho took in tho contest, his after conduct only convinced us the more firm ly of his upright intent. * (Icnoral ltosscau was born in Mercer coun ty, Kentucky; was about fifty years of ago and a lawyor, by profession. lie was a gal. lant soldier in the Mexican war; then a mem ber of tho Kentucky Senate for several sos. emus ; a soldier in the late war ; then elec to 1 to Congres:; from the Louisville districts ; which position he resigned ; was next sont to Alaska, and then to the Department of Lou- I isiana.
