Cuasm, Secretary of tho Treasury:— Sin—During o residence of twenty years in the Gouth 1 have been extensively engaged in mereantiie and {ipan- cial transactions. Ia being thus engaged I have acquired & knowlodge of cotton and tobacco factorage, the institu- tions, manners and customs of the people, their monetary condition and necessities, &c. My study cf political economy has led me to the conclu- sio& that no paper money issued for carrying on a war can be sustained, except the enemy be, either by its pro- ducts, domain or agsesements upon its exchequer made to reimburse the outlay of such paper currency. Instanee our own ¢ontinental money, the assignats of France, the Texas Treasury issue ; all became comparative- ly valueless, and to the parties holding them an involun- tary contribution to the respective causes for which they were issued; and such mugt inevitably be the fate of the so-called Confederate money; but may we not hope for better results for the federal Treasury notes? Certainly we may if we use the staple products of ihe South in a legitimate manner as a basis for exchange and credit. To this ond I presume to suggest to the government, through ite succesefal financial head, the Hon. Secretary of the ‘Treasury, the following:— First—Allow no cotton, sugar, tobacco, rice, turpentine or rosin to be exported from the South except through a government agency. ‘The government having contro} of thesé gréat atapies, will catise other Powers te cultivate friendly and intimate relations with this government. In truth, the iment having contro) aye possesion of yt pS boas TaTspouea staples, compels other na- fons to act in good faith in all respects. It would bé heir intereat thon to discounteuance the brea king ef the blockade, &c. This partof the subject might be indef- nitely illustrated. ~ ‘To show the importance of this measure, as well as the magnitude of the enterprise to the government, I will take cotton aione for an example. Cotton is worth to-day in Now York the enormous price of from fifty-five to tifty-cight cents per pound, whic’, together with the cur- rent rate of exchange on Kngiaud, viz:—thirty per cent, & pound of cotton represents in Liverpool seventy to seventy-four cents of federal paper currency, provided it should sell in Kngland at a corresponding price. It will be found that this would, in the aggregate, make a large amount of foreign exchange to sustain com! 1 and national intercourse and credit, as wil! be socn by the fol- lowing: — rom the best information I can obtain, there will—at the end of the present cotton picking season—be 4,000,000 bales of cotton, of the average weight of four hundred pounds. Of this amount I would expect, by judicious management on the part of the government, to obtain by ‘the end of the cotton fiscal year, say June, 1803, 2,000,000 bales, the present value of whieh in Liverpool, in federal currency, would be to say 800,000,000 pounds, say seventy cents, $560, ‘Now, in proportion as the market is supplied, the price must necessarily decline on the ac. count of its increased supply; 1 will, therefore, rate in ' this example cotten at fifty cents instead of seventy, as above; 800,000,006 pounds at fifty cents, $400,000,000. In these caiculations.of price and value, I have omitted stating the expense of selling cotton in Europe, but have, instead, Pag the price far below the prices current there to. Now the Geert ion arives, how is the government to obtain he cotton, with at Jeast 4 partial consent of the nominai owner or producer. My idea is for the government to ad. vance, through the custom house and government agents appointed for that purpose, say twenty cents per pound on ali merchantable middling upland cottons, higher or lower, according te their grades, to all parties holding the same, regardless of political soutiments. The said cottoh to be chipped cither to Furopean or Northern markets, and sold ax may be deomed advisable by the Secretary of the Treasury, cbargeable, of course, with ali usual und necessary expense Incurred in shipping, transhipping and sale. When gold by the goverament the proceeds w be deposited in the United States Treasury, and there hel twelve months, at the end of which’ time, the party whose cotton has been sold, coming forward and taking the oath of allegiance and paying all income tax due from said party to the government, then the government to hand over to him or his lega! representatives, in federal (paper) currency, the amount that may then be found ue, without interest either way. Parties from whom cotton or other staples may have been received, failing to come forward—atter due notice has been given—taking ‘the oath of allegiance and paying all dues to the govern- ment, then said balance shall be deemed and declared forieited to the United States. Some among the many arguments I could urge in be- half of this policy are these:— ° First—It cannot be expectéd that a large majority in the disloyal States can be reached excopt through their seléinterest. The government exteading such facilities as I have named, cannot fail, in my opinion, to induce producers and holders of cotton to avail vos Of Lhe terme offered. . Second—Such @ course would stimulate ihe adventurous and enterprising to go among the holders of ¢otton to urge them to send it forward, either by sale or otherwise. Here I would note that twenty cents per would be much in advauve 0: the price of cotton as at present rul- ing within the Confederate Jines, _ ‘Third—The secessionists themselves, except whore their authorities prevented, would take advautage of tho opportunity to dispose of their orops, well knowing that by retaining their cotton fill a general poace they would not, in ali probability, realize to exceed twetve to fifteen cents per pownd, for the reason that ibe remainder of the crops of 1861 and 1862 would be tnrown upon the market at once, which would ve ruiaous not only to them but to all the national interests. Fourth—If the government shovld take control of these twoerops, they would, during the war at least, be able to get to market the number of bales I have named, in such limited quantities at a time that the market would not be teriously depressed. Further, the government owes it to itself so’ to proteet the staples of the Routh that, ‘through these products the people of the South may be able to pay their pro rata of the debt incurred by the and the government further owes it to the loyal North to €0 arrange its financial and belligerent inter- course with the rebel States as to save them (the rebels), as far as possible, from insolvency; that they, at the close of the war, may have it in their power to liquidate iu @ measure the 000.000 they owe the Norther mer chants and capitalists, which they certainly will not be able to do if the war closes with this immense stock of cotton om baud, stored in gin houses and elsewhere. Fitth—This goverous course of policy (which I advo cate) on the part of the government to those in rebellion, could not fail being appreciated by all enlightened people of Europe, and our own loyal people themselves would see in this a disposition en the part of the administration to protect them, while they were relieving the immediate wants of the Southern planter and the European cotton spinner, ‘Sigth—The control of these two crops would give the government the use (on my plam) of two hundred milous or more of doilars, without interest, and give it abundance of gold to pay its interest, which would piace its securi- ties on @ firm basis, and would cause thein to be sought for as investments. Scvonth—Ii is, iu my opiuioa, absolatoly necesgary that the government should have other moans, beyond its credit, to command. gold to pay its own interest, which the control of cotton and such other products as are ex- ported to foreign countries alone would give them, as this plan does not contemplate the goverument paying out snything other than Treasury notes. It is further the in- terest of the government to Obtain @ circulation in the South of its notes, for every dollar of United States cur reney circulated there depreciates of nocessity their cur- reney, and to depreciate their money i* to take that much out of their hands whereby to continue the rebéliien. Further, it is not, agI believe, the interest of the ¢. verninent, when it sball bat again in the disloyal States, that its people should be crushed and wholly rujned, but that prosperity, so far a3 it is posstbie in che nature of things, should atteud them. Iu fortherance of this view J wduld state that i have it from sources eutitied to know, that at least one quarter of the cotton now on hand is exposed to destruction, from the fact that there is agreat deflciency of bagging aud bale rope in the South, which the government codid pro tect and save from waste by aliowing these important ar ticles to be sont South, at the same time promoting the interests of parties in Kentucky who are now greatly in convenienced by holding large stocks of bagg! and Tope, without being able to effort sales except at pressed and ruinously low prices, This policy would be preciated in Kentucky, I am gud Tam not able to how it could prejudice the interest of the govern for we presume it could not get out of the South without the consent of the government, Bi Be quantitics of this cotton is held by or under control of banks, bank: r OMMIssiou merchants and others, who have made advances of money and credit to @ great extent op the same, The Southern banks, to the extent of at least seven tenths of their capital, are owned North, and their stockholders would make large profits through the exchange which would be created by the sale of these products, as the best of Southern mouey at home rates from thirty to forty per cent below United States Troasury notes or Norther exchange. I cannot doubt these parties favoring this echeme, as thereby they would collect their debts, and be abie to reduce their cireulation and be prepared to resume payment at on after the conclusion of the war; and certainly, with suc 4 favorable opportunity to realize tr m cotton’held as se curity, they would not haza blockade, or its being confiscated by either the Confederate or fede: ral government Nin'h—Lbe politicwns aud leaders of the South incul cate the idea that the Nerthern roctians from tha governn stroy, which I regres to say is ‘hen they should see the armi coded by such a proclamation as protection to, and highiy they would, instead of dreading the of the armies, receive them ax prote rinies are sent there with devastate and de y believed: but federate es issue or Southern banke, which are so intimately connected with the governinent by means of loans and other . 4 will here venture opinion that cireu- Juting generally through the cottov regions of one hun- dved millions of federal notes, would do more towards suppressing this rebellion than would an army of one bondred thousand men sent for wasto and indiseriminate destruction, to say nothing of the benefits aueh a icy would reflect upon the (ederal government and the com- Sire Tile plan tn We operais 1a pl of jon would suppress and | chipped pomp army ‘ofheers from torn specula- 8, and devoting their time and opportunities to money making inatead of the intererts of the army and country. th conclusion 1 would urge the necessity and policy of she government handling all the Southern prodicte during ‘Whe war, invariably paying for them jv federal Treasury - NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, OOTOBER 27, 1862. eer would tend to keep down the premium on gold, which must be desirable to keep tbe federal notes from great depreciation. ‘The government in adopting this plan would, I am well aware, encounter more or less difficulties, which could be of or go- vernment would have to issue a proclamation forbidding the dealing in these articles except through the channels instituted by order of the Treasury, and, of eonrse, con- fiscating all commodities in the hands of persons violati or transcending legalized trade.

Persons who are well versed in railroad matters say they never saw or heard of so complete a destruction of an engine by explosion be- fore. The trucks, separated from the driving whecls, and, with about four feet of the: boiler, were thrown forward some twenty-five feet, and the head of the boiler was re- versed towards the rear. The rails directly under the driving wheels were broken into several short pieces. A piece of the boiler plate, nearly three feet square, was found yerterday morning about two blocks away, and anothey small piece was found near the gas- house, five blooks distant. The investigation was commenced before Coroner Gafney, at ten o'clock A. M., yesterday, and continued ‘until evening. Henry L. wn, master mechanic for the Erie Railway Compauy , testified that he heard the report of the explo- sion at his residence, in Erie street, and was at ence satisfied that it was the explosion of a locomotive; on going down to the depot be found the coal burning engine No. 164 a complete wreck; saw the bodies of four dead men lying under and around the engine, and the body of another man, who died about bait an hour afterwards; recognized amongst them Willian Root, the enginoer, and Alfred Bradway, fireman; the engine came from the company’s shop at Paterson, where it had been for re- pairk,on Saturday afternocn; a new firebox had been pnt in at the New Jersey locomotive and machine shop, vnd the machinery was repaired in all parts at thé com- pany’s shop; the locomotive was changed from a wood to a coal burner about a year since , and a new firebox was put in, in consequence of a defect im the previous one; Mr. Root, the engineer, brought the engine down from Pater- son on Saturday ‘afternoon, and made preparations for taking @ train west; the engineer took bor from the en- gine house down to where it exploded; think the explo- Sion was caused by over pressure; considers that the boiler was capable of sustaining a pressure of over 200 pounds; the engineers are instructed not to carry over 120 pounds of steam; there were two gauges of water in the boiler when the engine left the house a short time be‘ore. George Hill testified that he is employed by the com pavy in the capacity of train despateher; about ten minutes past seven o'clock on Satare evening he was standing about Ubree hundred fect from the engine, look ing in that direction, when he saw a flash, similar to lighting, and the explosion followed immediately ; he at first thought the flash was lightning; it was not'at all similar to the ligut whioh is caused by opening the fur- nace door in the night; wituess weut down and found the locomotive a wreck, and saw a boy , with his leg broken; gave orders for the care of the bedies , and then went to attend to other duties. Mr. Samuel Smith, Vice President of the New Jersey Locomotive Works Company, testified as to the overhaul ing and repairing of the locomotive, showing that it was in coraplete order. fs Aby; te Uhey, mechanical engineer and superinten- dent of the above named works, téstificd that the beiler had recently been repaired, aud was iu good order, and he considered it capable of sustaining over 250 pounds pressure of steam to the square fuch; he bad examined the wreek, and was ot the opinion that there was an iin- mense pressure—more than the boilor was able tostand it would take at least 500 pounds of steam to tear up the cngine in thé way it was; he eaid:—‘My opinion is that Ube Gre had Seen so intense that it drove the water away from some parts of the firebox, and deceived the engineer about the amount ef water ho had; that would cause the steam to be super heated and acquire such an enormous pressurefsuddenly that the engineer could not be awaro of it.” When steam becomes heated to a certain degree wituess thought it must Become de- somposed, and in that state it 18 explosive, like gunpow- der, aud that probably accounts for the flash, as seen by a previous witness. Lewis Holland testified that he is i as engineer op the Erie Railway; he saw éngine No. 164 about haif. past six o'clock on Saturday evening running up and down the track, as he supposed, for the purpose of pumping wa- ter into ber boiler; by reqnest of the engineer, who was hot used to a coal burner, be got on to the engine to see ti the fire was right; he did 6) aud found the fire going nicely; at that Lime the stean gauge indicated 140 pound: tue explosion occurred from iifteen minutes to half hour after this; while on the engine witness saw the eo giveer try the gauge cocks; he had safficient wat aul that the boiler would bear; it was bis opinion that the explosiou was caused by an excessive pressure of steam, aud that it took at least two hundred and fifty pounds ot steam te do the damage. Witness said he bad run that engine and had seen it generate thirty pounds of steam a minute; after he a off the engine he noticed that steam was not blown of of her; if pid had been a fiaw iu the boiler he should not expect to see such a geaorhl wreck. Peter Forshee testified that he is employed to take care of engines; a few minutes before six P. M. he noticed that steam was getting up too fast, and he took her out of the engine house and ran her up and down the road: at that time there were from one hundred and forty-five to oné hundred and fifty pounds of steam on; there was plenty of water in the Dolier; shortly after he delivered tuo et gine over to the engiueer; at that time there were ou uandred and forty pounds of steam and the steam was blowing off; the engine was standing etill some Oftven or twenty ‘ninutes before the explosion; he believed tho cause of the accident was from an over pressure of steam, One or two other witnesses gave their evidence , which ‘was unimportant, after which the jury rendered the fol- lowing ‘verdict:— We, the jury, find that William Root, Alfred Bradley, Patrick Miscal, Martin Bennett, and oue ‘man to hs ary unknown, Came to their death by the explosion ef the boiler of engine No. 164, near the w York and Erie Railway depot, in Jersey City, on the evening oi October 25,1862. Further, that said explosion was caused by an excessive pressure of steam, which wag allowed to gene. rate while under the charge of William Root, engineer. News from St. Domingo.
