Major Flynn, of Illinois, who .la here with a re.
entiling commission, entertains hopes of raising a
white Teglment, partlsnlarly from among his Irish
and German follow-citizens. The Irish are 'sup
posed to favor the movement, and are willing to
serve as guards for the country round about, to be
eredlted as the Ist Loyal Regiment of South daro.
Una. Tbls foreign class have done many kind
nesses toward the Union prisoners confined avtfie
Race Course and elsewhere. ’WhoßetSr any of the
more wealthy Unlonlstsdeslred tooonvey comforts of
any hind to the Union prisoners, It was only through
the .Irish and Germans, who themselves under
went considerable rlßkVthat it oould bedbne. Both
here and Savannah there has been a disposition
among the native rebels to throw blame upon the
Irish, who are accused of mob making, stealing,
aiding and comforting the enemy, and other kinds
of perfidy, -The; are generally thw'Boapegoatß.of
the sins of rebels. Lately a secessionist lady charged
them bitterly with ingratitude and bad faith, be -
cause, when the great fires were burning atj' the
evacuation, the Irish women were out, dancing and
shouting, “Onr Mends are oomlng.” Of oofirse,-
the Irish here are ignorant as a olass, and all are
hearty contemners of the negro. : ;
. bblics of barbarism:. ;
Salines, ah old slave-trader,. reported the worst of,'
his lot, makes Ms stay in the olty, and'ls sash si mo-;
ral witness to the faots of final justfee as Q,utip or.
Suuoers must have been lu their time,* It.is : aj ou-*
rions reflection that an everyday pageant of free
dom now.paEsea before: the eyes of these dry- old ty
rants, Children on their way to school go by the
disreputable hosts of these old ravehs without jfear
of their eroaking. Their houses are so many peni
tentiaries’; all is gloom where they abide, for pew'
every one scorns and* a great many hate the blood
dealer. “ I oannot like the man whb SOlis-hls |b#S
ther and-drinks his'blood, 11 Is a-remark: apropos
made by a blaok man some-months ago, concerning
a white preacher, late, of Charleston. - The debs
of the slave-traders have ’ been visited—their
sanctuaries (for the manuscript and' printed*
literature still extant of South Carolina iwlll
not permit us to ferget that slavery Is a divide
institution) are spoiled and profaned. Wher
ever the soorfe spider hides, he must hear the
drums of blaok regiments,' and, If he peeps out from
the dußty rntos of 11 the Institution,” must see upon
their proud march.* “ finer lot ” of <■ likely young
negroes” and “smart negro fellows” then ever
were sold, forever lost to the block and shambles,
and forever, dedloated to freedom.' “Shambles”
was the name given to Salines’ slave mart. Freod
men report him the most cruel of those anolant
purveyors who. made so many earoases of human
souls—who went about seeking whit they
might devour. It will not do to reckon the'
tears or the blood which this ohevallor of Caro
linian Industry caused to be shed; (but-wo to the
slave who was brought to his mart! He was
.scourged to fit the bargain, and to fall In love with
his purchaser ; .husband was sold from wife, brother
from sister, and child from parent, and that other*
infamy, not to be named, but only to be Imagined,
may be set down with the Bins to which the slave
trader stood sponsor and ofVhioh he was the regu
lar procureur. Sovereign pity for the state of bar
barism which reared aneh evil ministers Is, needed,
if pity must be felt at' all. Byan, Wilbur, Baker,
and, perhaps, a half dozen more of the blood-brokers
have gone from Charleston like the nightmare
which is slowly leaving the ooumtry, but they
have left a wreck behind with that solitary: de
mon of the old-time craft who lurks here, unlike
Marius, but still among plenty of -ruins! of
fail own making. Salines, If his name be a token,
Is a monument to Sodom, a pillar of ln
the hard minds aSftanned hearts Of afioh experi
enced scoundrels, the new system appears, It would
be hard to tell with exaotness. It. is a bitter joke;
no doubt, that the “niggers” are free, go to school,
carry muskets, and guard Charleston. Bat What
are you going, to make of them, after all i the old
slaver asks, and perhaps a pro-slaver echoes. Both
are lost In the ruins. The thought Is a fearful One,
that the last trader of flesh remains In Charleston
to take the oath of allegiance, for some of the once
rampant chivalry, it must be confessed are pregnable
at tWknees, and property,has value loft under ’ the
presumed bankruptcy of the Union. The oath
should be iroh-olad, with a .padlock and chain to it,
Shy lock’s bond not being among the modern exac
tions. Bat now no slaves are to be found, and the
trader’s occupation's gone; and to’lpnely. spirits
like his the most cheerful song we can commend is
that of De Qwinoy’s fine-art murderer, “ Non est
inventus; Toad In the Hole,”
A great many curiosities have been pioked out of
the stave-marts and from Secessionists’ houses here,
but the most Interesting are, perhaps, lying perdu in
the trunhß of relic-hunters. Those from the house
of Barnwell Bhett would aid to instruct history, no
doubt. The first flag of Beeesßlon will probably bo
presented to a Massachusetts society; the bell over
one of the slave auetion marts has been cut away
by a correspondent oi the Tribune. A few papers
randomly gathered at the slave-marts, and here
subjoined, will, serve at least, to show the dally life
of slavery In tome of Its milder aspects. The other
class of memoranda have such signatures as Tron
holm and Memminger. First of all, we have a
letter,.written in the floe English hand of a slave
selling lady.to.tjie Messrs. Ryan, auctioneers. Tiet -
It be witnessed under what circumstances even
Southern ladles eould trade in flesh and blood: '
“ St. AueuSTiNß, February 17,1851.
I beg to request that on the receipt of this you -
will close the sale of my servant Daphney and iher
two children. I regret that I did not see you while
in Charleston, as 1 understood Daphney represented
herself as unsound. I know she was determined to
try and prevent her sale, as she wished to return to
this place. I assure you that her present situation
alone produces any disagreeable appearance, and
she Is so well known here as a valuable servant that
I canid easily get $9OO for her and children. As her
expenses are increasing dally, X beg you will endea
vor to sell ber as speedily as possible, and tothe
best advantage. I have labored under serious in
convenience at her having been kept so long in
Charleston. Messrs. K. &N, F-. Caldwell will deli
ver the bill of sale and receive the money for her.
By attending to this immediately you will greatly
oblige “Tour oo’t serv’t,
' " Faust W
From another letter the following is extracted;:
* «.».'* u w hat lam now going to say about
Betty I wish you would read to her for her especial
benefit. For the last six years Betty has been per
mitted by ber owner to remain in Charleston, for
her own benefit, and during the whole of that time
she and the elris have not brought in more than
SSS per year, Besides paying their taxes and other
expenses, when in the eountrythey would have been
worth $2OO a year. Betty is considerably In arrears
for her wages. What She has paid for the last two
years has not paid the tastes of herself and two
younger ohildren, notwithstanding her owner
has made so many sacrifices to let her be wlthlher
husband and ohildren, She has, proved herself a
very unprofitable and unthankful servant. Shejhas
now made up her mind that she wlll not pay'her
wages, and that instead or her supporting her mis-,
trees, her mistress must support her. During; the.
last three years she has lost three ,childrens and Iher,
mistress has had to pay for burying them; and to pay.
her doctor’s bill besides. We oan stand these things
no longer, and have determined that Betty shill'
leave Charleston and come to Alabama.” * *j- *
A lady writes from. “Azalea Mount, “lanF.ex

file Two Bisters.
From the Lcrdon Ather.unm. J
Amongst nations the United States and Canada
bave played and are still playing the parts which
two sisters occasionally act in private life, to -the
amusement, vexation, and applause of their rela
tives and acquaintance. Both come of a good fami
ly and are richly endowed by nature and fortune:
but the United States has asserted her superiority
over her sister as a wit, belie, heiress, woman of
the world. Scarcely had she entered her teens,
When she eloped from domestic ooatrol, and, dis
dainfully flouting at parents and teachers, re
ceived to be her own mistress. Friends expos*
tulated, instructors preached in vain. She
was reminded of her dnty, implored to behave
in a manner suitable to a young lady of fine
estate and good connexions, threatened with,
terrible punishments if she did not resume
her former condition of filial obedience. ■ But
rebuke, entreaty, menace were alike power
less. Bent on nothing leak than haying her own,
way, she persevered in rebellion, laughing io her
father’s face, required her trustees to relinquish the
management of her affairs, and on reaching mar
riageable age gave her hand to young Republican,
ism, an arrant Bohemian, who was expected to
squander her wealth in wild speculations, and prove
a fearfully bad husband. The seniors.of her family
connexions uttered dismal prophecies of, the misery,
in store for her, and predicted that, after brioging
her finhet’s gray hairs with sorrow to the.grave, she
wonld oie In a workhouse and be buried at public
expense. - But matters turned out less badly than
her- best frlendß hoped they would. In some re
spects the marriage was, fortunate. Anyhow.she
irorened herself, well pleased with the husband of
. rnr oboioe, and her property soon-doubled, in his
hands. Malignant critics observed that little praise
Tfag duo to him, since no sort of-mismanagement
-Could completely obviate the natural-advantages of
. the estate. Bat whether it was due.toluck.or to policy
the Success was beyond question-. The young couple
■ rolled In wealth, their children were all, promising
’ infants, each of them horn with a silver spoon, in its
l lhonjh, and able to stand alone at an, age when
OMfitary babes can merely lie onjhelr backs. Suo- 1
cess makes friends andpnts enemies to the rout.
' People soon' discovered that, after all, Columbia
bad not done badly for her Self, and, there were two
sides to every story that could be told against her.
. Thoße wlio condemned her for childish disobedience
in' marrying without her father’s .will, maintained
that people should bear in mind whatachurl the
old fellow was, how cruelly he.had treated her, how
Impossible it was. for any girl.of high spirit to put
up with him when he was in one of his ugly fits.
Anyhow, bygones ought to be bygones. The world
Is not without charlty-for thpßa who do not much
heed it; and Columbia wasjpst theperaon to whom
people like tp be charitable. She was so brilliant,
wayward, wKty, piquant, lovely; she danoed so
well, and sang so ravlshlngly, that it was Impossible
to be angry, with her forever—-or for long. So, from
a naughty girl, the disgrace of her highly respecta
ble family, she came to be regarded as a chief orna
ment of bersex.
In the mean time Canada has remained in the old
home, filling the rile of dutiful daughter, earning
the resnect, but somehow failing to win the admira
tion, of the world, Sho is a good, right-minded,
womanly child, every one allows; and occasionally
a mors enthusiastic, friend ventures to hint that Mr.
Bull and the mother-country have reason to be
proud of her. But more often one hews people say
how lucky she is to have suoh a nice home, and how
thankful she ought to be that, instead of being mar
ried and in the world on her own account, she is al
lowed to stop in the old house. The same people who
excused Columbia's rebellion on the ground that her
father was an overbearing tyrant are emphatic
i about Canada’s good fortune in having so wise, ooa
; siderate, beneficent a Blre. No one doubts the, story .
of Canada’s filial devotion, and only a few suspect
' that, notwithstanding ber gpntle face and mild de
meanor, shenurses In her breast discontent and re
sentment. But, in truth, the poor girl is by so
means so lucky and satisfied as most people think
her. More than once she has spoken angry words .
to ber father, telling him that he is careless of her
interests, and treats her ail ornately wlthnegleotand
harshness. Her grand grievance is, that whilst the
' world sometimes punißhes her for h£ indiscretions,
he persists in treating her too much as if she were
a obild. in leading-strings, and had no right to a
' will and aotlon 01-her own. Ones or twice since
' her sister’s flight from the old home, Canada has
• been sorely tempted to follow her example ; : and if
: she has resolved to stay where she is, her intention
: is mainly due to the fact that, on leaving the pater
nal roof, she would, under existing circumstances,
' be forced to enter ber elster% family. To remain
where she Is may at times boa hard fate, but to live'
with the sister, whom sho. most cordially detests,
would be far harder. For throughout her triumph
ant oareer, from her mafrlago to the present time,
Columbia bas used every occasion to snub her
younger sister, goading her with saroasm, and mad
dening her with ridicule. By turns she has lashed
or stabbed each of her. tender points, jeering her for
want of style and beauty, pitying her lgaorauce
and homeliness, and charging her with meanness
of spirit, because she does not rebel against paren
tal tyranny. Sometimes Columbia says with dis
dalnftl'oempsssion, “Ton poor dear thing, if you
wait my convenience, one of these days I'll take
you into my family, and my ohildren shall treat
you exactly ad if you were one of themselves,”
These insults from woman to woman—ttd® SWOT to
her MW be lorglyea,
According to the New fork Commercial, in reply
to Btatementcfreely olroulatedto the effeot thatthb
unpaid requisitions on the Treasury amount to
$300,000,000, the Secretary of the Treasury wtH :
show that the unpaid requisitions, which in Februa
ry were $130,000,060, have been wholly liquidated,
and that a balance of $10,000,000 is in the hands of
the Treasurer. We quote:,
“ From the time that Jay. Cooke & Co. undertook
the management of the seven-thirty loan up to
March 23, the subscriptions for seven thirties
amount to $153,508,380, leaving unsold of the bid
Issue only about $14,000,000; This large Increase
has enabled the Treasury to place - itself in a better
position towards Its open creditors than has been
realised at any period of the war. .
“ The decline In gold Is tbegesnlt of the Improved
credit of the ourrenoy; Tho near close of the war
has so far improved oonfldenoe fit the prospector the
Government fulfilling the promises made In notes,
that public opinion now regards greenbacks as
worth sixty-five cents on the dollar. This Is all that
Is meant by the late decline in the premium on
gold. Now, we ark, if the Government credit has
60 - far - appreciated, in reference to its notes, why
should it not be equally Improved In respect toits
bonds 1 Both have the same basis of credit; they
are mutually convertible, and,heretofore,the fluctu
ation in the valne of greenbacks has not been at
tended by any corresponding change in the price of
the lunded securities. ”
[From the Chicago Tribune 1
Let not your hearts be , troubled. Ye oelleVe
In gold; believe also In greenbacks, for greenbacks
are coming to gold. This is the-finanofal lesson of
the hour. some, tremble lest the continued rapid
decline In goufwlLl cause wide spread failures in
business—a general panic and prostration. We see
no occasion tor this fear. Oar quotations seem like
those which: have usually preceded panics, but in
1837 and’s7, and similar seasons of financial revul
sion, there was an actual decline sour quotations of
prices, referred to “gold pricesnow our “gold
prides’* are not falling, but the quotations of prices
are In a currency which is'mutable, and Is now
rising. The apparent.deollne in values Is therefore
to a great extent nominal, not real—in greenbacks,
not' In- gold. All merchants,.therefore, who have
traded within their’means, keeping their stocks
paid for, will find those stocks worth as -much “in
gold,” I. e. -in -fad, to-day, as two months ago,-In
spite oi the fall in quotations.
Again;' in times ol former financial revulsions we
have been largely. lndebted to foreign countries,
owing to excessive importations, and the drain of
gold from the country to pay those debts has occa
sioned a real poverty here, our goodshave fallen is
actual gold values, not nominal paper .values,'and
this fail has made merchants really poor who had
srfason to suppose themselves rtih. But now we are
not Indebted abroad.: • The balance or trade and ex
change Isdn our favor, a-udwlth the termination of
the, rebellion foreign,gold, must continue,to pour
into our country instead of to go out. The invaria
ble accompaniment of such panics has beena dc
jualure frbr^sptciepaymeote, but now the appareat
decline in greenback, prices Is the. consequence
of a telprnistg approximation-to, specie paymenie.t
The symptoms are the reverse from those which
have chsraoterlzedall periods of financial depres
sion. The rise in the greenback valne-of some
articles,.and the fall In others, is only that-which Is
necessary to bring the currency to the standard of
gold. Most owners of property which Is falling In
greenback Values also own other property which Is
rising In the same values. The merchant whose dry
' goods have.beoß-bought with -gold at 200 finds his
prices per yard, in greenbacks, 25 per cent, lower (In
gold the same); while his bills receivable are collect

Bis real estate will be worth more. All debts pay
able In. fixed sums of moqey are increasing la
actual value, with the currency, while all products
' which, have been used in foreign commerce as
< equivalents for gold, such as wheat; pork, and pro
visions, are falling in greenback valne. These
facls.nccaslon intricate adjustments of values among
ourselves, but most ol our legitimate business men
own not'only-goods which are falling, but bills re
ceivable, book accounts, currency, real estate, Sec ,
which are rising. We have no ruinous ba-lande of
foreign debt bo pay off. Oar war debt Is due to our
selves. What one of us loses in these readjustments
of prioes-another-makes, and frequently wnat we
lose on one article we make’on another. -This being
generally true, -these adjustments of values, which
tend to conform all to the gold basis, oan never oc

Br- Livingstone, the African traveller,''is at pro
_s*ht. in considerable. anxiety respecting his eldest
son, who was . kidnapped in an American port, on
hoard the vessel in which he was serving, by some of
these nnprinolpled agents for procuring substitutes
or whom we have heard. He enlisted In the 3d
<4&w Bampshire-Ypjunteers. He Is known-to have
"men present at the skirmish before Richmond on
October. 7,-1864, but from that time all trace of him
is lost,and every mode of sending letters to him
has been tried In vain. He la believed to have been
made prisoner by the’ Confederates. It is hoped
that if the American papers would give circulation
to the above facts the son may be able to send no

I read in your issue of-yesterday abrief article,

Dr. Llvlngatepe In regard to this matter have been
received at file State Department, and these letters
repeated the statement that young Livingstone
had been kidnapped, and abused this Government

mattertp ’ the 'War Department, and’lt was ordered
that an inquiry. should be made and. the facts re
ported, sottat-they might be communicated ft) Dr.
Livingstone. :
The report forwarded from the army, to the War
Department showed, In sabstanee,.tbat young Liv
ingstone, who seems as adventurous as his lather,
had enlisted, and was one of. the very best soldiers
In hts regiment. Indeed, so excellent was his con
duct that he had been promoted to a sergeancy
within a month alter his enlistment, all the officers
spoke well of him. Details of facts concerning the
alleged kidnapping could not be given, however, as
Sergeant Livingstone, much to the regret of his
comrades, had been taken prisoner by the enemy a
few days before the report was made. It Is'to bo
hoped that .our gallant army will soon release him,
with thousands of other captives.
The Farm and tlie Street.
On Monday last a boy presented himself at the
counter of Jay Cooke & Uo., in Philadelphia, and
said that be wanted to Inveßt $lO,OOO in seven-thir
ties. He uncovered that amount of money from hfs
person Ingreenbaeks and notes of Ohio and Indiana
banks. It soon transpired that he lived in the west
ern part of Indiana, and desiring to invest in the
Government loan, and thinking, with a prudent
simplicity, that It wonld be safest to get his bands
right from- Jay Cooke’s own hands, he travelled all
the way to Philadelphia to make the purohase.
While there he received the attentions which his
patriotism and devotion merited. .
©n Friday of last week a German came into the
National Bank of Dubuqne, having walked thirty
miles from his farm, in the neighborhood of Belle
vue. His clothes were ragged—the appearance of
themsn was that of a mendicant. ’Twas an arti
fice-to avert robbery on the road, for in the bulk he
took out of his dress $lB,OOO, his own money In part;
principally hlB neighbors, entrusted to him to Invest
in the Government loan. Every dollar of the thip
teen thousand bad been dng by these Germans out
of the soil with hard day b’work.

Hew Orleans Markets, March 19,
Cotton. —The market opened this morning with a
very good inquiry at about yebterdav’s rates, but ope
rations were restricted both by titere being a very
limited supply on sale, and holders being rather more
stringent in their preten»ione, and the-sale* as faraa
reported were confined to 24 bales at —,-and 16at auction,
as roi owe: 2 bales plcl Inge and 2 original, rotten, at
14c round; 1 oaie orcinary and 1 bale samples at SSKct
*9 bales low ordinary at 62c. and 1 bale leawaUrdamaied
.at $l6O. ■
