It is the more practical plan of the two?more
likely to be attended with practical results. If
we attempt to do too much, it will result the snme
as if we were to do nothing at all. If each Congressional
district shall raise a company of one
hundred men, and furnish them with the twenty
thousand dollars that will he necessary to supply
them with arn?3, pay thoir way to Kansas, ami support
them for a year, more will be accomplished
than If each district were to undertake to raise
twenty men, and furnish them with the requisite
sum of money. And if each Congressional District
shall supply a company of one hundred men
ready fnmished for the field of strife, the State
will have sent forward an effective force of six
hundred men?quite a nice little army. Let us
not attempt to do too much.
But whatever may be the plan which may be adopted,
let there be no dilly-dallying an 1 delay.?
Whatever is done should be well done, and quickly
too. Let us not have our attention diverted from
the good cause by minor issues. Let us not neg
lect the weightier matter 01 senuxng men to ivansas,
by baring our attention diverted by the minor
question of sending delegates to Cincinnati.?
In comparison with the former, the latter sinks
into utter insignificance and ltttleness?not worth
a moment's thought. Ztor should we let our zeal
be dampened by the lukewnrinness and positive
indifference of our Representatives in Congress.?
It will prove the utter overthrow of the Southern
cause in Kansas if we await their cautious movements.
Let the people learn to rely upon themselves
wholly and exclusively.?Carolina Time ?.
KANSAS.
We copy in another column the response of several
journals to our suggestion of the propriety of
District action in aid of Kansas. It is certainly
to be desired that soma sort of concert be brought
about between contiguous districts, to give energy
and effect to the already aroused sentiment in
behalf of the movement. We trust that other
journals will take up the suggestion heartily, or,
if another plan be preferred, set in motion the
movement necessary to its consummation.
We cannot do better than to give our readers a
. few extracts from our contempories, indicating the
operations of the friends of Kansas in other quarters
of the South. Verily, the ball is in motion.?
The Carolina Spartan says:?
"Maj. 0. P. McArthur, of Thickety Fork, in
this District, a bona fide emigrant, will start from
the Court House on Monday next, on his way to
Kansas. He unites in his party twenty-five, six
or seven able-bodied men, and also two slaves, and
goes with a determination, designs locating lands
for agriculture, and becoming a permanent resi

The Charleston Courier has the following:
"The Kansas Colonization.?We learn authoritively
that Capt. E. B. Bell, of Graniteville, who
is engaged in recruiting and organizing a band of
Kansas colonists and pioneers on behalf of the
South, is meeting in great part the success due to
his energy and zeal in a worthy cause. He has
selected as his First Lieutenant a young Charlestonian
whose enterprise and qualifications will
render him a valuable coadjutor, and who has elicited
a considerable amount of aid in contributions
to the cause. It is expected also that Charleston
city and District will furnish a good quota
of personel to the company, as Capt. Bell has tne
nearest recruiting depot. It is desired and intended
that the enlistment should be composed exclu- |
sively of young citizens of such calling, occupations
and habits as will make efficient pioneers
and actively contributing citizens in the interests
and necessities of a new settlement.
"The terms and particulars of enlistment are
perhaps familiar to all readers, as the plan of
Maj. Buford, under which Capt. Bell is engaged,
has been published and explained through the
city press. We remark, however, that contributions
and aid solicited here are chiefly needed to
defray preliminary expenses, and the transportation
to Columbus, Georgia, at which point Maj.
Buford's engagements will begin.
"Capt Bell expects to report with a full company
at Columbus, Georgia, on or near the 25th
of March, and to proceed therefrom immediately
for Kansas, which can be reached in twelve days."
The Camden Journal has the following call:
"The citizens of Kershaw District are requested
to assemble at the Court House in Camden, on the
first Monday in March next, at 12 o'clock m., to
consider some project for effecting a settlement in
Kansas.
JAMES CHESNUT, Jr.
A. H. BOYKIN.
J. B. KERSHAW.
We notice in the Marion Star, that Mr. J. B.
Laborde advertises for volunteers to go with him
to Kansas. Col. J. D. Witherspoon offers to
equip five.
The Charlotte Democrat says:
"A number of young gentlemen, of this town
and vicinity, have formed an association for emigrating
to Kansas, as soon as they can make preparations
for the long joarney. The association
already numbers, ire learn, sixteen members?only
four more being required to complete the company.
On Thursday evening next, a public meeting
on the subject will beheld at the Court House,
to which all who feel interest on the subject (and
what Southerner is there who does not) are invited
to attend. It is as much an act of patriotism for
our citizens to visit that theatre of Abolition solicitude,
at this important crisis, as it would be to
shoulder a musket and march to meet a foreign
enemy invading our country and robbing us of our
rights and property. The people of Kansas?the
Southern people of that abolition ridden territory
?will receive with open arms and doors all who
go at this time to their rescue." '
The Columbus (Ga.) Sun says: "We
are glad to see by the Eufaula and other
Alabama papers, that Major Buford is receiving
some handsome contributions, from gentlemen in
different parts of the State, to aid his Kansas enterprise.
We trust that he may be able to start
by the time appointed, and that his company will
arrive out in time to be of essential service to the
cause of the South."
The Marcy and Buchanan Correspondence.
Washington, Febuary 28.?The main points of
this voluminous correspondence are contained in
the letters from Mr. Secretaiy Marcy to Mr. Buchanan.
In one dated July loth, is a statement
that something more than a disavowal will be expected
from Great Britain for infringing on the
rights of this country, and that she should discharge
from her service all whom she had enlisted
iu the United States, or who had left this country,
unless contracts had been made here to enter the
British army.
A letter from Mr. Buchanan, July 16, reports
that Lord Clarendon had said that friendship
should be maintained uninterrupted between tho
governments. On 28th December, Mr. Marcy
sent a very long letter to Mr. Buchanan, recapitulating
the occurrences respecting the enlistments,
and saying that Mr. Crampton's connection with
the affair had rendered him a very unacceptable
representative of her Britannic Majesty's government
near the United States government. It
moreover stated Mr. B. was directed by President
Pirecs to ask her Britannic Majesty's government
to recall him. Also similar instructions were sent
respecting the British Consuls Rowencroft, Barclay
and Mathews, Consuls at Cincinnati, New
York and Phiadelphia. On February 1, Mr. B.
writes WkMr. M. an account of the interview with
the Earl of Clarendon. Mr. B. corrected an error
or omission in a remark made by him as contained
in Clarendon's despatches to Mr. Campton,
on the 16th November. The omission consisted
in not having added the qualification which Mr.
B. had made to his remarks, to the effect that he
fB.) hadnotjthe least idea of Mr. Crampton's complicity
in the recruiting business. Clarendon said
he had no doubt but that Mr. B.'s recollection was
correct, and expressed regret that he had net embraced
Mr. B.'s remarks in his despatches.
Ho considered that Mr. Crampton had not intended
any infringement on our laws contrary to
the positive order of the British government.?
And he. Clarendon, thought we had no just cause
of complaint, as instruction had been sent to Mr.
Crampton to terminatejthe enlistments before Mr.
Buchanan's note had been received.
In a letter of September 27th, of E&rl Clarendon
to Mr. Buchanan, he complains that the United
States had violated the neutrality laws in allowing
arms and military stores to be sent from
this country to Russia. And he also stated that
we allowed plots to be openly avowed to cause an
insurrection in the British dominions.
Mr. Marcy, in his letter of October 13th, to Mr.
B., desires him to inform Clarendon that the President
demands redress.
On November 16tb, Clarendon writes to Mr.
Crampton, and says that her Majesty had thought
that a frank expression of regret for any violation
of the United States laws, which might, contrary
to instructions, have taken pl&de. When a determination
was expressed to remove all causes of
further complaint, her Majesty thought such explanation
ought to satisfactorily and honorably
terminate the difference between the two governments
. That the information possessed by her
Majesty in the matter was imperfect, and that direct
charges should have been made. That no of|
fence by the United States had been offered or
' contemplated, but that frienship be maintained.
In the despatches to Mr. Crampton, Clarendon had
observed he did not see the importance of Mr. B.'s
remark relative to Mr. .' complicity. Mr. ?*
I had ever considered Mr. C.'s complicity in the
! matter as of grave importance.

Columbia Cotton Market.
March 5.
Our market is still well supplied with the arti- j
cle, and all offered has been freely taken. Some
400 bales were sold at 8.} to 10c., and a fancy article
might command a fraction more.
Arrival of the Baltic.
Xkw York, March 4.?By the arrival of the
steamship Baltic at this port from Liverpool,
with dates up to the 20th February, we are put
in possession of news five days later than that
brought by the America.
The Peace Conference was to have assembled
on the 23d. Envoys were rapidly arriving, and
confidence in its peaceable results were increasing.
The excitement growing out of apprehended
difficulties with America had entirely subsided.
Lnrge assignments of English troops had made,
to concentrate in Canada.
The cotton market was steady on the day of sailing.
26,000 bales changed hands since the Amer'
ica left.
Charleston Correspondence.
March 8d, 1866.
Mestrs. Editort:?Several days after the date of
my last letter, the cotton market continued dull,
and prices declined about J of a cent. On Friday
afternoon, however, the accounts by the America
came to hand, which revived the demand, and during
the afternoon operations of Friday the rates
improved about J cent. Saturday, prices were
firm, and sales large. To-day, Monday, the feeling
has been dull and prices scarcely so ftill; owing
to the fact that the stock of cotton now in this
market is so large, that there is not room for more
until shipments can be effected. No foreign shipping
of consequence is now in port; nnd not sufficient
on the way to carry ofi' half the cotton now
on the wharves ready for shipment.
The rates of freight arc advancing and must
reach a high point, which will put the price of
cotton down. I heard a large cotton factor say
to-day that twenty English ships ready to take on
freight now would be worth at least an ? advance
on cotton; but there is no such good luck on hand.
On this account, the price of cotton must suffer.
A few select lots of cotton are selling here at
10j cents; but the ruling rates of such cotton as
is sold in your market are from 9 to 10 cents?
the large portion of it, called middling cotton, 9}.
Corn is declining, with a heavy stock and large
receipts. It must still decline, unless a foreign
demand should again spring up. The decline has
amounted to about 25 cents per bushel from the
highest point?65@70 cents, including bags, beingjnow
the'extreme.
"Wheat has also experienced a further decline.? j
since me pro^pecis 01 peiwu uave ueuuiuu um^ui,
there has beeu no foreign demand; the receipts
light, and prices nominal.
Flour is gradually going down, and, as soon as
navigation opens to Baltimore, will continue to decline.
The quotations for Howard-street flour in
Baltimore on the loth instant, was $6.75 per barrel
; 50 cents will cover the expenses of shipping,
which will put it down here at $7.25. We can
now get $8.50 here for similar flour, which would
pay a fine profit. This difference of price has
been caused altogether by the difficulty of getting
shipping out of the Bay.
The ice is now breaking up at all points, and we
may expect soon to receive consignments of produce
of all kinds, and at reduced prices.

Reported Expressly for the Yorkville Enquirer by
Thomas Davies <j- Co., Grocers and Produce
Dealers.
March 6.
Cotton.?Our cotton Market continued dull and
drooping until the arrival of the Atlantic, bringing
advices of a considerable advance in Liverpool,
which caused prices to advance even beyond the
rates ruling defore the decline. During the latter
part of the week under review, the market has
been active, and all grades have been taken freely
at nrices raneintr from 7 to 9.60. To-davtlie feel
ing is good, and a very fine article might command
9.75.
Flour.?The market is active and lively, with a
good demand, though prices are declining. We
quote in Sacks $3 ? $3.50; in Barrels, 87 ?
87.25.
Grain?dull, and also on the decline. The following
rates are now ruling: Corn, 50060 cents
per bushel; Wheat, $1?$1.23; Oat*, dull, at 35
?40 cents; Meal, 60 ? 70; Vena 55? 021.
Groceries.?The market is well supplied with all
kinds of Groceries and Provisions, at steady prices,
to wit: Sugar, brown, 121; refined, 14; crushed
and loaf,-14. Coffee, Rio, 14@16$; Java, 20
?25. Molasses, N. O., 65; West-India, 60.?
Mackerel, S6.50 per half barrel, No 3; whole barrel
No. 2, $14. Salt, $2.50, per sack. Rice, $5.50
per bushel. Cheese, 20 cents. Candles, Sperm,
50?62; adamant 37 ; tallow, 25.
Columbia Market.
March 3.
In our last weekly report, we stated that the
cotton market closed somewhat heavier, at prices
ranging from 81 to 10J cents. The week now under
review opened with the same dull feeling and
quiet demand, and during Monday and Tuesday
prices fell off J to J from the highest point of last
week. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday were
also quiet days, and the market again receded full
J cent. On Saturday morning the news from Liverpool
by the America came to hand, reporting an
advance in that market during the week prior to
the sailing of the steamer of J to JJ., with sales
of 92,000 bales ; fair uplands are quoted at 6]d.
These accounts no doubt have had a favorable effect
on our market, but from the fact that the day
I was very unfavorable for out-door business ; and
also from the other fact that the supply of the article
was light; and consequently up to the time
at which wo closed our inquiries, preparatory to
making up our report, it was altogether impossible
for us to say what course the market would take.
The sales of the week foot up about 8,500 bales, j
and we now quote: Inferior 808$ ; ordinary 8J
081 ; middling 8108^ ; good middling 909^ ;
fair 9$09i{, and a choice article would command
5 j, and perhaps 10 cents.
Corn.?The demand for corn is rather slack, and
consequently prices ore a shade lower. We now
quote 72075 cents per bushel.
Bacon.?We have no quotable change to notice
in the price of baoon, and we therefore continue to j
quote 1H012 for hog round; sides 11 }@12, and j
hams 12@13 cents per pound, according to quality. I
Peas.?The demand for peas is good, and they j
are steady, at our quotations of 80 cents por
bushel.
Oats.?There is only a limited demand for oats,
and prices are looking down. We quote 60055
cents per bushel, and dull.
Flour.?The flour market is also dull, and prices
arc tending downward. We now quote $808.60
for common to good brands; good family flour $9
per barrel.
Fodder.?We have no quotable change to notice
in the price of fodder, and we therefore continue
to quote $1|01^ per 100. according to the quality
of the article.

ind progress will be rigorously required. .,
