, The estimated, time for ,r,epalis ie about
twenty-five days, arid - the cost $12,000 to
$15,000- As the canal Is a strong work for

eminently' Propernthat the government 'should'

Gen. Belly'left Cumberland last Thursday,

Movements; of , Cotton in New Or
leans—Distress Of the • Planters.
'• The . I)lOckade of -the cotton / ports has Para
lYsed.the energies, ot 'the planters; who, with.
Astrating.storehonteas; and idle slaVes eating out '
their substance,. are making desperate efforts to
get their crops to market through New Or-r
leans. According to -- the confession of Mr.!
Madison McAffee, a gentleman who declined;
to i.e a candidate for governor of lithwissippt
at the:late 'election, the "people Ore allndst
destitute'of money,:' the absolute neolssarlis
of life are at an..exhorbitant price, and there ,
is no sale' for cottoti, from which . our people.
derive their income. The taxes'td be provided:
for by the people . of Mississippi during the next;
Year will amount''five 'millions' of dollars..
Unless the blockade is raised and we can sell
cotton, the taxes will produce' an , amounts of:
suffering and a sacrifice of ,property never before
witnessed in this State." The - planters seem to ,
endorse the doctrines of 'Mr. Mmtifee, and'
rather than "lie supinely on their - becks, hug - -
ging the deilitsive phantom of hope"' that Eng -,
land - ancl Frande Will raise the blockade, while
they are strangled by the' tightening . - folds of
the federal cordon - on the one hand, and the
confederate einbargo on the Other,: theY appear
determined to break through the one and defy
the, other, in order "to relieve their desperate'
inanities. ' •
In this extremity the Confederate Govern
ment, despfdring of relief through foreign in
tervention; have either withdrawn the restric
tions which ; during the summer months, were.
imposed upon the transportation and shipment !
of cotton, or tamely submit to that necessity
which knows no law., Five months ago a
man in the interior of lilississiPpi,, diOressed
by the rebellion grid the prohibition of the sale
of cotton, ventured to send .to New Orleans
eleven, bales of the 'staple, whielL.was not al
lowed to be landed on the levee, and was sent
back to the' owner: But a change has taken
place, and now, as 'I am informed by a prisoner.
quite recently from New Orleans, cotton is ar-,
riving there in large quantities.
There is no doubt et the tact that the side
wheel steamer C. Vanderbilt, which, formerly'
runen 'Tong Island ffound in connection with
one of the lines between. floston and New.
York, recently' - run the blockade of the Ails-,
sisiiippi, arid arrived in safety' at Elavana, with
a cargo of eight hundred and_ sixty bales of
cotton, which- was sold at a great profit. She
was loaded and ready to sail from New Orleans
on the 25th of November; of which fact sonic
of "the officett'ot the blockading squadron !midi
timely warning, and shoild have taken
measures-to . prevent her eicape., The steamer
has recently received new boilers, and is re
markably fast.
CHARGE Bevosess--Charge. Charge ! !—The
Cincinnati Press !dye that the accounts of the
battle at Somerset, Ky., concur in stating that
it was the bayonets or the bully Germans from
Cincinnati—the Ninth Regiment Ohio Militia—
that materially contributed to tbe decisive vie.
tory. The bayonet is the cure for rebellion.
The rose-water policy of playing at war so that
nobody is hurt, has cod the American people
millions of dollars and too many valuable lives
Now let the bayonet be-freely used alongthe
lines of the Potomac and the Mississippi, from
Washington to New Orleans. Let the cannon
roac, grape shot' rattle, bullets whistle, and
bayonets pierce deep, until the gun-barrels are
filled with blood, as is Stated:to have been the
condition of the guns of the Irish Brigade after
its tremendous;Charge.at k'ontenoy. The fero
cious and successful Russian General," Sower.
row, made free use of the bayonet. He said,
" The :bullet is a fool—the bayonet is a hero."
RsrLicrso OF a Noss.--A "few. days since. a
gentleman of Cleveland, Ohio, had his:nose so
nearly,cut off by a. fall from a carriage, that It
hung only. by a . bit'of skin and cartilage. It
was,. however, speedily replaced =inits original
position, bound firmly in, ant wag healing so
neatly, that only a slight scar , will exist to
mark the accident. , . - •

wain, agreement, order, 'warrant,. authority,

has satisfied , him that the number of rebels,
killed by a portion of the. Thirty-seventh regi
ment, last ifigkt, was nine—not tvienty-nine„
as originally tdlegraplied by him. •
. The 'Paymaster General of the Army,-in
letter to: representative .M.'Pherson, answering
an inquiry, estimates the annual cost of the
bands'of volunteer regiments at over five'riiil
lions; exclusive of cost of 'clothing, 'subsist
ence, and .trammorting the men composing
them. The estimate is: founded on the
seven hundred regunents now in service, bis
sides the liability to pay each of these Musi
cians, in all, seventeen thousand' five hundred
men, as large a farce as. the whole army of the
United States before the commencement of the
war, and the hundred dollar bounty, if kept in
service two years, or till the expiration'of hos
tilities. : ;
Mr. M'rtiEnsini w hist week introduced a bill

„.. ..,
stitute for the' first section.
" During the present rebellion, if any mem
ber ofthe Senate or House of
Representatives
shall arise in place, and state that the Presi
dent desires' immediate action, on any matter

reasons therefere, and such . 'House shall deter
mine, withoUr debate; whether to proceed to
the consideration of the subject. I decide in

vious question' in. the' House."
Mr. SIINIIMAN'S amendment was adopted.
.

The' joint resolution as amended was then

Mr. Wrr,sort said that on consultation with
officers of the' arinY sad others, he had
cone to the conclu•ion that he , original bill
which permitted sutler, but limited the sale of
certairvisrticles, was preferable to the bill abol
ishing sutlers.
lie moved to amend the first section of the
original' bill
. by alloaring the Inspector General
tO'Fieimit the sale of certain articles by sutlers.
Agreed to.
. Mr. SILESMAN moved an amendment that if

be'disinis.ed. Agreed to.
The bill was then passed.
The ease ti( Senator Bright was then taken
up.
Mr. Saimmuny, (Del.,) proceeded to speak at
length in defence of Mr. Bright.
Mr. Baron' defended himself, and said an
examination of his record would show that he
al ways opposed the, right of secession. and had
spoken against it in the Senate as long ago as
in the days of Mr. C'alhoun:
A - sharp colloquy ensued between Messrs.
Davis and. Bright.
Without action the Senate went into execu
tive session, and subsequently . adjourned.
The Legislative, Executive and Judicial bill
was taken up and passed. Amorg its pro - vi
sioris'are the following,' namely: That nothing
in this act shall prevent hereafter a reduction
of salaries, and that the mileage now due
by . law
,shall be . paid as soon as certified
by the presiding officer of each house, but
there shall be no construction fore mileage
beyond what is allowed by the:existing law,
namely: mileage for each regular session only.
The bill makes appropriations merely for objects
authorized . by 'the existing statutes.
Mr (Ill.,) from the-Committee on
Agricultural Affairs, reported a bill • appropri
ating three thousand. dollars to be expended
under the direction of the Secretary of the In
terior for the purchase of upland cotton seed
for general distribution through the Patent
office. Passed. .
The House passed the bill, providing that in
all cases where a volunteer regiment has been,
or shall be raised to the minimum' standard,
the colonel, &other field officers who shall have
been commissioned as such, shall he enti
tled to receive the pay and allowance es
tablished by law for their respective grades,
from 'the time they were severally au
thorized in wilting by the President
Secretary of. War or Governor of their State to
raise such regiment. Provided, however,, that
in no case shall such pay relate back more than
three ' months prior to 'such regiment being
raised to the minimum standard. The provis
ions of this bill also to apply to Captains whose
pay shall extend back two months.
Mr. BLaIR then urged the passage of the Sen
ate bill authorizing the President in certain
cases to:take possession of railroad and tele
graph lines when, in his judgment, the public
safety may require it.
Mr. BLAIR explained that the simple object
of the bill is to regulate and limit the power
already possessed...
Mr. BLAIR explained that the bill does not
compel the taking po-session of railroads and
telegraphs. the power was to be exercised
only in cases of military necessity. We might
be compelled to make draft or Wing civilians
into service as soldiers. This would be compe
tent.
Suppose we want to transport troops sudden
ly and the' railroad employees decline to serve,
we.wonld be necessarily obliged to go aboutio
find other means of transportation and might
loss an opportunity to - strike a blow. Ile had
been informed in high military quarters that
the passage" of the bill was eminently ne
cessary.
The bill was then passed—yeas 113, nays 25.
_The House resumed the consideration of the
Treasury note bill.
Mr. PeNDL&TON, (Ohio,) said that be had ex
amined every law passed from the foundation
of the Government to the present time, and
found this bill essentially different from any of
them. If this bdll shall pass we shall depart
from the settled financial policy of the Govecn
ment and involve ourselves in disasters, against
which we have been warned by the wise" men
who in other days administered the Govern
ment.
The committee rose and the House took up
Senate joint resolution, providing for secret ses
sions on war questions and imposing penalties
for disclosing the proceeding therein.
Mr. brevrais moved the question.
Mr. VALLA/61GRAM raised a point which was
overruled, that the resolution involved a change
of rules and must therefore lie over one day.
Mr. Steven in reply to a question, said he
had the` words of the Secretary of War, that
such resolution was necessary.
The resolution passed: Adjourned.
