DBKWEditor On to Richmond, The instincts of a people are seldom wrong. If their judgment and energy could have fair play, the rebellion would be crushed within two or three months. Had their opinions been consu'. ei in the commencement, Richmond, Va., and Nashville, Tenn., would now be in the hands of Federal sol diers, aDd the rebellion virtually overthrown. With the same intuidoa that perceived the true policy of the Government at the outset of its difficulties, but which Was disregarded, the people now see the danger threatening us from European interference. They see that there is but one way to avert that danger, and that is by the advance and success of our armies in the field. Two or three more weeks frittered awaj in inaction, seals the doom of this republic. It will not do to depend on scouting parties to exposed points tor our success. It must be achieved over the rebels in battle in their strongholds. The very fact that we shun them in the field and organize expeditions against unprotected portions of their coast, is an indication of weakness that Is telling fearfully against us in Europe. The Press there pertinently ask, if the Republic has so many men and such means of suppressing the rebellion, why is it they permit the rebel flag to flaunt in sight of their Capital? Why do they not raise the siege of Washington ? Blink it as we may, the National Capital is in a state of siege hag been for months and we bope to hear no more of rebel distresses and sufferings until the people of the loyal States can visit "Washington from any direction without fear of capture. We are pleased to notice that the impatience of the people is finding utterance through the prei. Those papers who hivve counseled delay and urged patience who have been most prolific in excuses tor the seeming slowness of the you ag Commander-in-Chief are now urging an advance. Even iir. Forney is aroused by the emergency, and is panting for an onward moreHient. The following paragraph from hia paper, expresses the opinion and wishes of thousands : Nothing will do more to prevent the recognition of the rebellion than a series of bold and instantaneous forward movements of our armies here and elsewhere. At no period within the last Eve months would such demoDStrations have been more decisive of great issues. If within the next three weeks the returning messenger of the English Government shall find the sec aaBionists routed in Virginia, destioyed in Kentucky, annihilated in South Carolina, Florida and Texas, and driven out of Missouri, there will be no recognition of the Southern Confederacy. It would seem as though England was bent upon war at all hazards. The Washington correspondent,. of the Cincinnati Gazette says that information baa reached the Department at Washington rendering it certain that the English part of the allied fleet in the Gulf will soon occupy Matarnorns, if indeed it has not already done so, for the purpose of opening an illicit done so, tor the purpose ot opening an illicit trade, via Brownsville, with the rebels. It U.n lH.vd in wall informed onarters. is even believed in well informed quarters, that England joined France and Spain for tbe especial purpose of importing contra bauds, and exporting cotton into and from the South. Far-seeing men discern horein a speck of war, more ominous than the seisure of Mason aud Slidell. Sixth Regiment Illihouj Cavalkt. A letter from Captain Boicourt informs us that this regiment is still at Sbawneetown awaiting the arrival of arms. The men are enjoying excellent health. His company have passed through tbe measles quite successfully, but three men dying out of some fifty-five who had the disease. The troops are becoming quite impatient, and long u be called into more active service. The men now have nothiag to do but cook their ration? take care of their stock, and read the Journal. The latter pleasure they are sometimes robbed of through some disarrangement of tbe mails, and we are inform ed that the soldiers swear like bona fide troopers whenever this occurs. We do our best to furnish them with the paper regularly, and can .only say, ii they fail to get it, we are not to blame. CoBRBCriov. Several very disagreeable errors made their appearance in yesterday's Journal. Some of them were so glaring as to readily be detected by the reader. One, however, was not so eaeily seen. In our comments on the course of the Madison Ceurier, in the second line of tbe second paragraph, we are made to say v' gome .qf Gov. Morton's arguments,'' 4c. We wrote the sentence, " some of Gov. Morton's arrangemtntt." fc

From the 5Uth Regiment. Out refrulat: eorrespondeot, Co. Y., 24th Regiment Indiana volunteers, forwards us a communication from "Ca'up Lamine, near Otterville,

Missouri. He reports the members of that j Regiment to be healthy and ready for any . emergency. He claims that the 24th Re.- ! " , ment has always averaged more men forac- ' j tive duty than any other regiment in Mis- ; j souri, composed of the same number of , men. This he at;ributes to the watchful . ... . . Gerber, and the skill of Surgeons Jessup and Davis. Col. Hovey's present mission to Indiana is, .to endeavor to secure Sibley tents for his men, and otherwise add to their comfort. The 24th was not altogether forgotten I during the holidays. Co. F. was the recip- i . . , ... i lent of two or three packages from this city, torwaraea Dy tnougntrui irienas. There were indications that some of the regiments at Otterville, would be ordered South, though nothing definite was known. Vallandingham. It will be seen by our dispatcher, that Vallandingham ha3 taken occasion to express, on the floor of the House, his disapproval of the surrender of Mason and Slidell. He, in common with other rebel sympathizers, is chagrined to find that a war between England and America is averted, and that the Southern Confederacy wil,, therefore, have to work put , its own salvation with "fear r id trembling. , Mr. Hutchins puts it(io a very mild way wbu he says that his colleague's course is liable to be construed into a desire t aid . .im - atj ; a, the rebels. The following paragraph from Upe Mem.U. . 1 nf ,kn OQI, iit , with yu.a .Kr., .., what favor Vallandingham u regarded by - rebels. Praise from such a quarter is, to av th lajtnf it. " Husnicious: ' " All honor to the brave Vallandingham. , We trust the South may rind an early oc- : casion of manifesting their respect for his grand moral courage." The National Intelligencer an nounces that Gen. McClellan who ha3 been confined to his quarters lor a week past by a severe cold, "brought cn by mcb exposure, night and day, in the Held " iS now free from fever, and rapidlv onval;3crng. We are glad to tear it. Some cor respondents state that Gen. Iiuriifcid;- s expe dition is delayed on account of health. If this be so his disability is proving terribly expensive to the conntry. But expense is a secondary consideration; We are glad th.- G. eral is getting better, because thi- imie 1. 1 his probation has ueaily expired, and tLe people expect him to demonstrate his fiiuess for the position to which tbey have elevated him. The Louisville Journal at thtfi mte day has discovered "that the brincjpaj out lets for contraband traffic are between Heu derson and Southland.' We have called the attention of the. proper auihorities to the subject repeatedly and yet nothing hs been done, white goods a id provisions sro pouring in a steady stream to the Sonthi-m Confederacy through Caseyville, Ueionton

and other points co' tiguoun. We pn-sutuo ; Mr. Siulell was somewhat sulky, aud not the matter will be attended to ne w, tbe a" pleased at going in such an unosteuta- , ." x. , 1 1 tious inuuoer, and in such a vessel.

be rebels must be stopped. We are inclined to believe that Gen. McOlellan's illness is more serious than his been represented. Dispatches from Washington dated Jan. 4th, say that he is improving slowly. He was only able to attend to bis bus'ness for a short time, and was bo exhausted that he resumed his bed. Some papers are deriving consola tion from a remark in Mr. Seward's letter to Lord Lyons, to the effect that the rebellion was on the wane. Since the celebrated " ten days " prediction of that gentleman, the people place little confidence in him as a prophet, however they may admire him as a diplomatist.

Cotton. Port Royal correspondent of the

-The Go!2iuer. hi Advertiser gives the following account of Uncle Sam's -operations in the cotton business : The negroes every where, in two dUtrkta, re wor! collecting, baling, and. tolling cotton. Thousands of them have been set . . . ... ftre , llt 0f a dollar tor every hundred pounds they deliver. They labor with alacrity unaer this unwonted stimulus ; various assistants and clerks have been appointed to oversee their performances, and though they need to be constantly directed, and skilfully managed, yet a good degree of work is really gotten out of them. This is proven by the fact that, in less than three days, over $50,000 worth of cotton was nut aboard tLe ! steamboat which accompanied Col. Nobles ; all this cotton had been baled by the ne- j 8roes themselves, and the bags made by , tbera ; it was thea conveyed to the various; landi tnQ Qne of wMch there i3 a ; - :. The supply of bags haying been in complete, some thousand sand bags were supplied them, and these had to be first placed in flat boats, then rowed out to the steamer, and again removed to the decks, before the labors of the blacks were completed. The ld drivers were generally retained, ts find out the hands and bring them up to the places where their labor was required. The amount of cotton taken from each plantation is carefully ascertained; each bag is marked with the formfcr owner's initials, and. an account kept both with the estute aud with the negroes, so that at any 'jmZmi who shall prove I time the government will be able to comto have been loyaL The. cottor. found on these islands is, as is well kuown, of a superior quality ; it is worth 50 cents a pound on the island, aud 75 cents in New York. It is in ordinary times sent almost exclusively to France, where it is mixed with pilk and cotton goods; its texture is of the tlaest quality, and its culture requires the greatest and most constant care. There K iDjniease qQautiiifc3 of it yet stored in the cotton houses of these islaud ; more tven lias been discovered than was anticipated; at least $3,000,000 worth are believed to have bteu already secured. Since the negroes have discovered that they will .be paid for their exertioua, they have brought in some that was buried in ilu interior, and manifested great care to preserve and obtain as much as possible. I have heard some instances of their giving warning in advance when their masters or the rebel soldiers contemplated any new burnings. As lor the giuning, most of it w to be. doue in New York; it is the opinion of those who have charge of the work, that it can b learned with utwse ia a day by any

i 1 ; workman of ordinary capacity, ai;d the laAlcOleHwi j0T id ty no ujeao3 arduous. Here it will

rtquire engineers and eogioes, as well as gins, and necessitate a whole corps of assistant oyerseer3, for the negroes are utterly incompetent to do anything without incessant supervision. DcjMirture cfMaion aud Slidell. From tins Boston Trnv-1'i or Thars.lay vuji,g The departure of Slidell aud Mason from Fort Warren, yesterday, was conducted as quietly us possible. The garrison, with the exception of the guards on duty, were kept from the side of the fort where the prisonc,s 4-"' " persons upon tus wuiiri ,wueu ujtv tiubrked. The other poUucai prisoners, as they bade them good-by, congratnlated thDi on. their release.

Hudson, who was in charge of tbe arrangements, went with them on board the English war vessel, and remained ou board for about fifteen minutes, when he returned to tbe lug. At about six p. m. the Kinaldo got under way and proceeded oa her voyage. In about two hours afterward a violent gale comuiooeed, and blew all night at Provincetown with almost the violence of a hurricane, but, as the wind was off' shore, probably the safety of the vessel was not endaogered. During the stay of the Rinaldo at Proviucetown no communication was allowed with the shore, nor was any boat allowed to oocne alongside. Governor Morion Tbe Democrat at Convention.
