OTTO BALLOT BOXES AFTER THE WAR.
It is expecti-d says the Charleston Mcr- '
curt/, that the war now waged by tie ITni
ted States upon tbe people of these Confederate
States will be closed upon terms
which will ?nal>.e us to escape all Yankee
taxation and Yankee dependence. Il isexpecled
thai we will Mo our own trading on
'.be principles of political economy, buying
in the cheapest market* and belling in
tbe dearest. We want no indirect trade,
through the Yankee factors of New York
and Philadelphia, who have so long filled
.their purges with Southern wealth and kept
us dependent upon them. We want .o
facilities given to Yankee manufacturers
and shipmasters to foice upon us their j
goods and chattels at unnatural I
created by either laws or treaties. Whatever
is needed for tbe defence of the Confederate
Government can make or tiisnufaoture.
But, as to all else, When we once
get rid of the fetters and shagklex put up
- on our trade by the onesided, nnconstitu?
V " tional legislation of the old Government,
V? i Direct Trade roust be our policy, and the
' people of these great States will assuredly
V ' j leap forward oji their legitimate and pro
; ' per career of abound mg prosperity.

of inhabitants, who will come amongst/us
hereafter for the sake of gain, in ignorance
of our institutions and with false and lui
mical views both of our coniervative re
publicanism and of our domeBtic slavery ?
Is not this the fittest time to deal with this
question? We do not want emigrants hero
from a nation whose bands are dyed with
the blood of our pernio, ahed in a mercenary
and iavage war of invasion and of
subjugation. But, if wo must ha\e them
as emigrants, at least let them not corrupt
our politics and injure our institutions.
THE CBISI8--C0N8CBIPTI0IF.
The reaie'ly for the existing 6tale of
things is obvious. Il lies in the extension
anU light enforcement of that law to which
we owe our salvation. We must bring out
th? conscripts and diminish exemptions.

The follow ng passage in a letter ol Mr.
Benjamin to Mr. Masou is decidedly spicy
and refreshing:
It is gratifying to perceive that you liad
aa was confidently anticipated, reviewed
your impressions, and determined not to
withdraw Irom London without
c-us instruction Of the Piefiident. Your
correspondence wi'b E trl Ruesel (-bows
with what scant courtesy you have been
treated, and exhibits a marked contrast be*
tween the conduct of English and French
statesmen now in office, in this intercourse
with foreign agent?, eminently discredita
ble to the former. It :s lamentable that at
this late period in the nineteenth century,
a na-ion so enlightened as Great Britain
should have tail yet to discover that a principal
cause of the dislike and hatred to
wards j&uglawl, of winch compliant* tire
rile in her parliunutnt and in her prese, in
the offensive arrogance of some of her public

^SPEECH ON LINCOLN'S MESSAGE^FBOH*'
Aftwrf ELECTED UNITED STATE i 8EN-ATOB.
W. A Richardson, now in the Feutral
House of Representatives, has been elected
by the Illinois Legislature to the vacant
seat in the Uni'ed States Senate.
Last week in the House Mr. Richardson
made a speech southing the gorilla. lie
Baid :
Mb, Ciiairman : The annual message
recently sent to this house by the President
of the United States is the most remarkable
o: any that lias ever been delivered
to Congress. It is remarkable for
what it says, and still more remarkable
for what it omits to ?ny . One lialfoftbe
twenty one pages which it covers is devoted
to the negro. N?> page, no sentence
no line, no word, is given to land, or even
to mention, the bravery and gallantry, or
e?'en the good conduct of our soldiers in
the various bloody battles wbirh h ive
|been fought. No ?orrow ji expressed for
I the lamented dead. No allusion is made
to the maimed or wounded. No sympathy
.is tendered to the sorrowing widow
and to the helpless orphan made during
the progress uf ihjg war, which couU have
been avoided by honorable compromise, if
the Pre-ident and his friends had chosen
to do so.
Sir, it is a remarkable document. It is
an exiraoranmry raesjage, when we come
to think of its sum and substance. To
feed, clotbr, Imy and colonize the negro,
we ace to tax and inortgHg* the white
man and liis children. The wl.ite rade id
to be burdeued to the earth for the benefit
of the black race. . I
A friend of mine from N> w England
the other day made a mathematical analysis
of the message. He said one from
one and naught remains. Naught from
nacgbt and the message remains. [Laughter.]
- So far as relates to the wbito,.race that
mathematical calculation is right. So far
a* it relate* to the negro, or in 'tjbe court
language of the President, the 'foe Araericao
of African descent," riveip of, blood
and countless millions of treasure ' are not
enough (or his benefit and aAvqntage, . '

r RETREAT FROM MURFREESBORO..
CARD FROM GEN- WITHERS.
Chukcrcla, January 17,1863.
Th? report being circulated that the
retrograde movement of our army at MurTreesboro'
was ordered by the General
Commanding in opposition to the advice
of Corps and Diviiion Commander**, in not
sustained by the truth. The movement
was suggested by two division atid sustain
ed by v corps commander, after 12 o'clock
on he night ol '.he 2d inM,, and was then
rejected by the General Commanding. On
the morning of the 8d inst. .the General
ascertained that all the Corpg and Divie
ion uummanuera concurred in the opinion
that the army should be withdrawn, and
not in its then worn condition put to the
hnzuid of another general engagement,
lie about the same time learned the fact of
reinforcements having been received by
the enemy. It wm then that he yielded
his op losition and ordered the movement.
Suppose the General hntK^dhered to hjg,
first determinatioi^and dTOfl^gjjJcj'^'been
the result, what would have been nis^position
then ? If this movement did
command the approbation of every Brigade
-^rVWH^and Com^goinmander, then
present with the Srmy, I have?Bdi to hear
of the exception. I cannot believ^^liat
the armv numbers among its gou^fals one
of those creatures who is always wise a'ter
the fact, an I bold when there is no danger.
A man who has given his ail to his country
.-should at least hate just ice.

Tiie Yankee Generals at Ticks
m*rg.?A correspondent of the Mobile
Register gives the following account of two
or (hree of the Yankee offi.ers who were
killed or wounded near Viukshurg:
Gen. Wycnan, formerly superiutendent
of tlio Illinois Central Railroad?a road already
famous for haviii<? iriven tn fli?? Yun.
kee army those grand military humbug.*,
McClellan and llurnside?command one
of the oldest, and finest brigades in the Abolition
service. At the commencement
of the war Wymon raised n regiment of
railroad employers, and was ordered to
Missouri, where kia regiment remained uqtil
ostlered to anbt?t in the? taking of"ViekB?
buru. A brigade was then placed under
VV/mai)'s command, nnd at the head of thin
wuieu was oacny cut up wjieo-attacking
the Yaw>o ttrongho'd*. Wfroart
Was killed, lie is mourned by flip Yankees
as one of their bravest and most skillful
officer*.
General Morgan D. Smith, formerly a
steamboat runner in St. Louis, ooraraandad
what was ?t) led a Missouri brigade but
composed wholly of convicts pardoned out
of I he Illinois Srate Prison upon condition
of j<tilting the army. It wap the infamously
n jtoriona E gth Missouri, noted
for every kind of inhuman outrage and lb?
burning of a large portion of the city of
Memphis?. General Smith, the leader of
th:s desperate band, was mortally wouuded.
Smith's reputation for .swindling
operations while at Memphis is equal to
Lhnt of his infamous command, and none
will say that lie did not deserve his fate.
Colonel Smith, brother of General Smith
arid.lcadt-r of one of these ioidisfunt Mis
souri regiment*, was al?o killed. And among
the wounded in onr hand* At Vicks
burg, I le.irn, is Captain JTavden, formerly
a wiiting master in St. Louis, and' well
known as an atheist. His atheistical and
abolition doetrioes naturally brought Iiim
into the Yankee line, and at the' defeat on
i lie Yui'X) he had an arm shot oflj which
wil) perlapB interfere somewhat villi bin
penmanship, of wj^ich he wa9.utoerfedlj;

officers in thfc buttle of Viclubutg,
