Dear Sir: I have bosa engaced In tannins and manntarturlne leather for fifteen rears, and Kay be considered to understand it practically aa well as tbeoretk-a ly, and I feel it but simple Justice to stato that yon system ef tanning is decidedly superior to anything vsith which I am acquainted. It saves at least AO per cent, of bark when it la used, and equa'ly that in cost when no bark is employed, and tans in vastly shorter period than can possibly be dona by ths old olsn. The roost important feature, of course, is the great economy, in time and money, and ths facility of uains Hark or tan ning wit hoot it The svstem must Drove aatiafsctorv to any purchaser. 1 oars, cc, J.

CHRONICLE OF THS BOTABLE Social, Political and Military Events or THE SEC0SD AMERICAN REVOLUTION. March. 1861. Continued. 11 The Mieeoari Convention passed a resolution to investigate the alleged conspiracy to force the State oat of the Union.

Tbe Michigan Senate, by a vote of 43 to 2 1, indefinitely postponed the bill repealing tne personal liberty law. In the Confederate Congress, Mr. Kenner presented the ordinance of the Louisiana Convention, transferring funds to the amount of about to tbe Government of the Confederate States. Tbe Confed Congress adopted the permanent corstitntion of the Confederate States. Iv! Tbe Confederate Commissioners in Watbington officially addressed Mr.

Seward, Secretary of State, informing him of the pur-poee of their arrival, and stating, in the language of tbeir instructions, their wish to make to the Government of the United States overtures for the opening of negotiations, with a view to a peaceful settlement of all the pending questions between the two Confederacies. Tbe National Intelligencer advocated the evacuation of Forts Sumter and Pickens. The Federal troops evacuated Fort Brown, on tbe Bio Grande, and were aub.eq neatly placed on board the steamship Daniel Webster for transportation to Key West and Tor-togas. The Lady Davis, the first war vessel put afloat by South Carolina since the war of independence, 1776, left Charleston for harbor defence, with a full crew. 8b was armed with 24 pounders and regularly equipped.

t- 13. In the Confederate Congress, the veil of secrecy was removed from the new tariff. In the Federal Senate, Ur. Douglas offered resolutions calling on Lincoln to report the entire policy of the new Administration in relation to the occupation of the Federal fortresses in tbe seceded States and all other measures having reference thereto. 14.

Tbe Alabama Convention, by a vote of 87 to 5, ratified the permanent constitu tion of the Confederate States. In the lower honse of the Louisiana Legislature resolutions were passed authorizing the transfer of the regular military of the State to the Provisional Government of the Confederate States, together with the necessary arms and munitions of war, and also to allow volunteers to take service under the Provisional Government. A Washington dispatch announced that Seward had asked time to consider tbe propositions submitted by the Confederate Com niirniocers, and that they had granted it. 15. Some 300 of the Texas volunteers who left Galveston for the Rio Grande, to demand the surrender of Fort Brown and other Federal military posts, having accomplished their object without bloodshed, returned to Galveston in tbe steamship General Iiusk.

The volunteers who remained on the Rio Grande were incorporated in six companies and garrisoned the military posts evacuated by the Federal troopa. 16. Tbe Confederate Congress adjourned nr-til tbe 13th of May. The MiMonri Convention, by CI to 30, voted down a resolution that Missouri would never countenance aid to the seceded Statea to make war on tbe Federal Government, nor provide men or money for the latter to coerce tbe seceded States. Tbe Georgia Convention RnanimoaIy ratified tbe permanent constitution of the Confederate States.

Gov. Iloueton, and Mr. Cave, Secretary of State, failed to appear before the Texas Convention to take the oath of office as prescribed ty tne convention, alter being duly notibed. Gen. Houston refused to recognize the convention, maintaining that, after passing the ordinance of secession, it had no existence.

Tbe convention thereupon, by a vote of 127 to 4, deposed the Governor and Secretary of State, and authorized Lieut. Gov. Clark to act as Governor until another was chosen. IS. In tbe Federal Senate, Mr.

Breckinridge, of Kentucky, urged the immediate withdrawal of the Federal troops from the seceded States. lie said he regarded the expressed policy of Lincoln's administration, as also his acts, as meaning war that in what his policy appeared pacific it was ruled by military necessity. The Arkansas Convention, by a vote of 39 to 35, voted down tbe ordinance of secession. Gov. Houston, of Texas, gave up his office to Lieut.

Gov. Clark. 19 The Savannah Republican announced that the Georgia arms seized in New York, and for which reprisals were made by the seizure of New York vessels at Savannah, had been released and shipped to their owners In Georgia. Mr. Yancey, of Alabama, one of the Confederate Commissioners to Europe, arrived in New Orleans.

20. The Kentucky Legislature reassembled in Frankfort. The Arkansas Convention passed an ordi nance providing for a vote of tha people, on tbe 0th of August, on secession or co-operation, and that if the veto should be for secession the convention should pass an ordinance of secession if for co-operation, the convention should take measures for co operation with tbe border slave States. Tbe Alabama Convention paseed an ordi nance providing tnat tne legislature enouia cede a district of ten miles square for the seat of Government of the Confederate States. Washington dUpatcbes announced that orders bad been forwarded for the evacuation of Fort Sumter, and that Major Anderson's command would leave Charleston on the 23d, in the steamship Columbia, for Hew York.

21. The Louisiana Legislature adjourned $ine die. The Missouri Convention, by a vote of to 7, passed a resolution recommenaing ice withdrawal of Federal troops from the seceded States whenever there was danger ef hostilities. Tbe Louisiana Convention, by a vote of 101 to 7, ratified rbe permanent constitution of the Confederate BtateA 22. The Missouri Convention elected seven dele sates to a border State convention, and then adjourned to the third Monday in December.

A WasbiTJCton di match announced tnat tne Confederate Commissioners were assured that Fort Pickens would not be reinforced, and that Fort Somter would be evacuated. 23.

The Secretary of toe ederai Treasury ad vertised for proposals for a new loan of eight millions at 6 per cent. The Texas Convention, by a vote of 126 to 2.

rassed an ordinance ratify in tr the perma nent constitution of the Confederals States. Tbe steamship Bienville. Capt. Ballocb, frcm New Orleans, was under surveillance by tbe euetonihouse authorities at New York for A violAtion of the Federal revenue lawa. It was alleged that her clearance from New Orleans, onder the new port regulations of the Confederate States, was not valid.

To be Continued. Letters fraat Kentucky. Special Correspondence of the Picayune. BowtlMC OlIEN, January 10, 1362. It continues warm, ao warm that fires miht, without inconvenience, be dispensed with, end for tome dajg bat rained almost without intermiBtion, to the Sre at satisfsction, 1 doubt not, of Oen.

Bueil, who hat oubtless prayed with all sincerity tilt- can actuate -one fighting in such a cause for juat auoi: an excuse for an inactivity, which can only he ahaud ned by mailing into dangers which no sane maa would court. hatever the Intentions of the Fedt ra! comraander, tbe advance sf tbe Federal army li made almost i.n-poasible by the rainaof the last u-eek. A few mghta since. Col. Helm, who has comtnand af tho lat Kentucky cavalry, iu the vicinity of Glasgow, having ccme to this city tbe before on butiteis, wai caitUy ammoued to hit regiment, ly a report that the enemy was crossing Green River, and moving in the direction of Glase w.

But two days have elapsed without anycc-nfirmitiou of the report, and I am satisfied I was ucfo tt ie-i. The railroad bridge over Green River is certainly liaialied, and-the cars are runnirjg over it and it it probable that a few regiments of Federal troops are v.cw encamped ou the Southern bank of tbe river. If so, tiny should be attacked and cut to pieces at night. Sch an attack could dispirit, and, if successful, demoralize the whole Federal army. But it is not prescribed by West Point rules, and will not, I suppose, be marie.

Our commanders will wait till the forces thit hive been concentrated against us are disposed of in accordauce with the plans of Gen. Buell, and shall Hotify us that they are ready. Then in a decisive tho fate of Kentucky and Tennessee will be decided te-rvndum arttm. This may be for tiie best. I am confident of the triumph of the Southern arms whenever a battle shall be fought here.

If the enemy are left without an excuse for defeat the result will be the more crnsnicg to them and the more beneficial to us. As the guns are being mounted on tha fortifications which surround this city they are being experimented with, so as to learn their exact rsce sua effective, ness and thns the boom of cannon is beard at intervals all day Iods, doubtless carrying to distant rural neighborhoods the impression that tbe bittle ls ragtnf and the work of death going bravely on. A few days since, while experimenting with thirty-two pounder on College Hill, a shell thrown at an object near the earthwork on Underwood's Hill, dittast shout oue mile, foiling to burst st ths proper moment, was projected into the camp of the 1st Missouri Volunteers, where it exploded, scattering the fragments In every direction, but fortunately injuring no cut. Tbe firing, I am told, was, ia the main, such ss to augur ill to sny enemy who msy ever venturs within range of the batteries. A report has prevailed 4a town to-day that General Buckner, who ls yet but a Biigsdier, though commanding a division, baa been practically superseded in bis command by the promotion of another to tha rank of Major Gereral but as it is irr.p ai-ble that ths aa ministration couio do guilty ot s-cu an set or stupidity snd folly, I doubt not the rumor was put in circulation by aome one of the numerous enemies of the South who are permitted to remain here, for the purpose of exciting discontent and dissatisfaction among Kentuckians.

The repeated, persistent and malignant attacks of the abolitionized organs of the Lincoln administration in Northern Kentucky on Gen. Buckner should satisfy any ou that those who know bis abilities and influence in the State fear hitn more than all others but the President needs no such assurances of his capacity and fitness for cstnmand. Jan. 12. Tbe weather to-day is warm sunshiny, showery, the grass In the yards looking reen, and the birds singing gaily on boughs which ook aa if they were ready to burst into full verdure.

Following, as this does, tne rains of the last week, it makes the roads sloppy, and the ground everywhere too soft to think of great army movements, as the long train of wsgens, ambulances and hcrseo, snd the artillery wagons could never get throuih any portion of the country between here and Greeu River. The rail bridge across Green River has certainly been completed, the work baviug teen perlutemled by Mr. Feuk, of Lovuville, by whom the bridge was orisinally built. Another bridge seme ten or twelve miles estt of the railroad ia being built, and ia probably by this time completed. Ii: the lr.e&utime, pontoons are being prepared, that notl.i:.: be lacking to the prompt passage of a large body ut men whenever the hour may come.

But the information is that Gen. is not vet ready, but wfil be in ten days. We have reliable information that is, it is deemed so, for in these times nothing is absolutely reliable that the Federal programme embraces a simultaneous movement of all the great divisions of the Northern army. Their plau. more correctly McClellau's plan, is shout this A fleet is to come np the Potomac, while McClellan advances strsigbt on Manassas and lianka mures upon our left flsnk at the same time Cox will move towards Lewiib.irg, (lartielrt upon Cumberland Gap Buell in four divisions upon Bowliug Green Wallace and t.iant the Mississippi, artToma-nied by fleet o' gunboats, Alc.

A Washington City correspondect a Cincinnati newspaper, writing nnder date ol the 2d says that by returns at the War Department, to tbe 2ii ult- the actual leases sustained by the Northern army during the war are as follows From disease, killed In battle. 11,000: missing, prisoners, fee, fi.OOO wounded, total, do.Ow: This it their own cocfebsion. Tbe same correspondent further says "In relation to the Maaon and Slidell affair, there seems to prernil a general belief that the deliveries up to England was trope but the Administration still cute! tain the opln-on that Jobn Bull contemplates rupture with the United States on some pretext or other.

Fire different grievances from England are aiready intimated, unofficially, to the Executive and Cabiuet, none of which will be yielded by our Government, when the demand ia officially made by Lord Lyons. I not advised precisely as to wbat these grievances are, hut the sinking of the stone fleet in Charleston harbor is In relation to the sinking of the stone fleet in Charleston harbor, the Washington City correspondent of tbe Chicago Times writes as follows England, having just taught us one lesson in international law. is now about to teach us another. Such is the tone snd language which we now bear in all tbe foreign legations this city. It is now openly declared here, on good authority, that the British Government regards the unique mode of destroying a harbor in which every commercial nation on the globe is interested, not only as a palpable violation of international law, but also is a confession on our part that we bave not the ships necessary to maintain such a blockade on the Southern coast as is alone recognized by the laws of nations aa a valid and effective blockade.

It is said that the British Minister here either has cow, or will have very soon, instructions from his Government to announce to ours that the former can no longer regard the Southern pcrts ss blockaded in the manner required by intern t-tional law, namely, bw tbe actual presence of shins of war and that they intend to raise the blockade forthwith. It is said alto that this announcement in to be trade jointly by tbe representatives in Washington of the three great powers of England. France and Spain, all of whom bave a joint interest in the mat'er." Tbe snti-sdminisration party iu the North ia rapidly growirg, and nothing but a great victory speedily wuo csn save It, There Is nothing new here.

B.EFVCEE. Operations of the Army of the Virginia Valley. Through a gentleman arrived from Gen. Jackson's headquarters, the Richmond Dispatch, of the 12th, derived the following intelligence; When Gen. Jackson left Winchester tbe entira ccunty of Morgan was in the possession and nnder the con' rol of tbe enemy.

Tbey extended their foraya even to the Frederick line, plundering and destroying the property of our friends, and arresting and driving tbem from their homes. Upon tbe arrival of oar army in the county they had a force near Bath of 60 cavalry, from 1500 to 2C00 Infantry, and two pieces of artillery, besides large bodies of troops on tee opposite) side of the river, st Hancock snd other points After a brief resistance they fled before oar sklrmishinf parties and advance eoluma.

The annexed report Is from the Richmond Dispatch, of the llthsi The case of the Confederate States against Wolff er to sequestrate certain debts doe by thorn to Elkera It Brother, alleged to be aliea enemies, was celled np yesterday in the Confederate State District Court, and Judge Haly burton delivered hieopin- ion thereupon, indicating his purpose to limit the -petition.

The murticnlars of this novel oase are sa follows Isaac Elkera, native of Prussia, emiirrated to this country many years ago, resided in tor a long period, where he took out his last Bat- uralization papers in 1849. He established a largo elothing store in Mobile In eocjaaotioa with Bie brother, and afterwards, in 1863, removed to Now York, and there established branch house of trade. He married ia New York, bought a raeidenoe there, sod voted st tha Presidential election of I860 voting axainat Ho frequently visited Mobile from ltol to 1861, and oontinned a partner ia the Mobile bouse. In 1861, immediately alter tha proclamation of Lincoln, he shipped a portion of bis goods to Mobile and closed the New York honse, bat remained fa) New York until September, 1861. when be returned to Mobile, and took tbe oath of allegiance to the Confederate States in November.

His family remained In New York, he alleging that In consequence of ill health, and for other causes, he could not remove his family South. It was argued in the progress of the ease that the defendant was an alien enemy on and after the 21st of Msy, 1861, and that his citizenship in New York continued until September, when he removed from that State, and that no change of eitiienship after the oom-menrement of hostilities between the Confederate and United States could protect tbe property of an alien from tbe sequestration act. i The decision of the Judge in Elkers's favor ia baaed upon tbe fact that he had closed hi business in New York before tbe commencement of hostilities, and that his removal from tbe North waa effected as soon as be cot.ld do so p.fter closing bis business. Ia view of these facts snd of tbe present loyal ststus of the party, the Court decided that his property was not liable to secnettrstiou. i District Attorney Ay lett stated that be wenld take tbe matter of appeal under consideration until Moo dsy, and on tbst dsy would announce whether he would appesl from the decision of the Court.
