Corros in New Baunswiek.—We learn from the St. John News that Cotton grows wild | in New Hrunewick as freely as it does in the | Southern States; and our contemporary believes) that if cultivated, it might be brought to a similar state of perfection for manufacturing purposes. The News adda: “The pods are large and the contents well developed, resembling floss silk— the fibre is tough, but rather short, we suppose, (balf an iach) tor the purpose of making cotton— the American cotton is fron a half to two inches in length. , proper cultivation, however, this vbjection no doubt, could be removed. Altogether we consider the article well deserving the atten- tive of scientific persons.”

—_—_—_-—+=-—_— BUILDING VESSELS IN ENGLAND FOR THE CONFEDERATES.

Just now, on account of the recent doings of the Confederate steamer A/abama, the = of the Federa! States exhibit a good

of annoyance because English ship-build- ers will take contracts to build steamers for the people of the South. The ‘ Scottish American Journal,’ published in New York, in an article upn the subject, places the matter, we think, in @ proper light, aad shows that many persone at the North have been misled by the comments of some of their own papers and the expressed opinions of several of their leading merchants. In re- ferring to the question, the paper alluded to remarks :

«+ Great Britain, as a nation, had no more to do with building and fitting out the Ala- bama or any other eteamer for the Cenfede- rates than the United States, as a nation, has with the building of the several steamers for China and — at present in the pri- vate dock-yards of New York. ‘The indiseri- minate censure which has been heaped upon the British Government for permitting the Alabama to be built in England exhibits a protuund ignorance of the subject. The Bri- tish Government could not prevent it; that Government is not such a despotisin as to in- terfere with the business contracts entered into with their own shipbuiiders in such eases. And what has been the practice of

New York ship-merchants with belligerent)

nations in times of war? Have they remain- ed perfectly neutral? They loaned their ships im scores to both the French and British Governments during the Crimean war. H. Webb, the distinguished shipbuilder, con- tracted with the Russian Government, in 1857, to build the frigate General-Admral, gad he completed that vessel in 1859; and he is now constructing two powerful mail- clad frigates, said to be for the Italian Go- vy rnment. And were a war to take place between Britain and Canada, and private parties from the latter were to offer him (or any uther shipbuilder) a fair equivalent for constructing a war vessel, he would do it, and nvither the people nor the Government of the United States could prevent him, and should they be blamed? The A/abama was built in England for private parties, and she

; received her armament at sea. It is the duty

of the American navy to protect the com- merce of the United States, not the nuvy of England.”

campaign, a8 soon as the wounds of the dis-| abled suldiers had been sufficiently dressed. | and they made reaonably comfortable, the strictest attention was paid to the purifying of the blood, «3 the only means of effecting & speedy and lusting cure; for which pur- pose, large quantities of purgatives a3 well as outward emolients were constantly con- sumed with the most wonderful success ever known to any age or country. Men rose from their couches and took their places again in the ranks, in so sliort a time as to lead many to believe-that their sickness had been feigned rather than real, and people hesitated, until compelled so to do, to attri- bute their cure to the effect of the medicines ased, So great was their curiosity in the matter that they determined to ascertain the truth in regard to such mysterious agen- cies, as those by which such wonderful cures were performed in so short a time ; and on examination, found them to be the Pills and Ointment of Holloway, of London, whose justly acquired celebrity was, in that case, duly recognised by the extensive use as well as the universal laudation bestowed upon his truly wonderful Medicines, by all the atten- dant Surgeons and Medical corps attached to those numerous and extensive armies.

Our correspondent also among the miners and other labourers in the gold regions of California, who, by a long residence among them, has b- come well! acquainted with their custome and manner of living, informs us that during his residence there he nas found those medicines used in almost fabulous quantities, not only in cleansing the system from impu- rities contracted in mines, but they were found equally effective in removing wiasma- tic, and other affections from emigrants ar- riving from extensive overland journeys or ‘long voyages by sea; and so great is their | popularity in that region, that it is credibly ‘related that one of Professor Holloway’s | agents cleared over 5,000 dole. by their sale jin that locality, in a single year.
