,^afr We chronicled on yesterday the burning of
two cor loads of cotton a Bhort distance abovo
Harrisburg. There wéro bttrned in all 76 bales,
•unsigned as follows: , Geo. Butler 42, Tompkins
& McMurtry 4, Gibbs & Brown 7, J. 8. Sellers &
Oq 8, R. W. Cornwall 14, andD. O. Stone 1. The
42 hale consigned to Goo. Butler were insured.
We learn fro letters from Matamoros up
ti the 20th inst, that the Liberals were in large
force, estimated at from 5&Ó0 to 5000 near the city.
Mejia has had 'ho chapar ! or thickets cat down
around the outskirts, and will give them a warm
reception, though it is very much doubted that he
eon hold the place, as his force is comparatively
vrauU.

Having sold my Livery stnb.e to JJr. Ki \Y. T. u i-
f friend has placed us under obligations for
Matamoros papers up to the 17th- We find noth-
ing of tpecial interest in them. Not a word about
the existing state of affairs i that city, the publi-
cation of n^hich is no dóubt prohibited by the mil-
itary authorities of the "hproio city.", The Ran-
chero says that a new English paper has been
started in the City of Mexico, entitled the Mexi-
can Times. 'in-?#' ..
.^•"The Htmtsville Iterií skill thinks that when
we stated that the Gerifratis^had been loyal and
had sympathized with the Union, that we placed
t^em upon a level with the negroes.
. We suppose the Item, from the same course of
reasoning, regards the citi¿8©i$,of such portions of
the South who were Unionists.; during . the war as
tm a level with the negro. ■ 11 ' !
Most of the Germans 'who have come to the
Sjmth are men of some education and intelligence.
Some of them had found it rather difficult to gaiu
a support in their native laúd, and huye émi rated
to our more new and' prosperous country; have
settled and beoome deeply attikhed to our repub-
lican institutions. Others, for having lo ved liberty
too well, had found it necessary to leave the land
of their birth and to séttíe in our republic, where
their ideas of liberty could be, and were prao-
tioocL Among tho Germans of the South are men
who have received the best of education, and who
have wielded influence in the Courts and óárüps of
Europe. They looked to the Fede^ Government
as thebulwarjk of liberty. Most- of the Germans
did not believe that the government of the United
States hi*«l eve*1 wronged them, and looked upon it
a a ope of the most precious blessings to be hand-
ed cLow¿ ¿p their descerníants. They . considered
«they had become citixens of the 'United! States,
more so thau any one of its sections, and were on
thjat ¿jtíJoti^f'íesB imbued with, ideational pregu-
dices. \VÍen,ith«
tésd, they opposed disunion i commoii With mail y
of the natives "tó thfe mauor born," and were dti-
uóhhcet|fi^1?ei^';;ijnt?:uai to tíie (South." After
the war had commenced, they remained at home in
preference to leaving and°fosing the property they
had acquired by houfest industry^ < After'the con-
script laws had been passed they had to meet the
alterüátovfe' ttf ¿nVeríiig thp C. S. army or running
the gauntlet. They had to flee, the land by stealth
wr force. They ^'Uq assert they could have gone
peaceably have projipibly forgotten that at one
time there were thirty4yio Germans put fo death
whilst endeavoringltQilfeave the State ittkl avoid
conscription. We allude to y hat was ocpumonly

we very much doubt that sales, eoijld have been
effected at any thing oyer 150. The Vi'«ítH's re-
