A GOOD TIME COMING IN THE SOUTH. The New York Commercial Advertiser forcibly remarks: The condition of the Southern States, at the present time is full of promise. They seem to have fairly tided over their industrial and political troubles, and the future is bright with the promise of a high, and, we trust, enduring prosperity. Another good cotton crop, of which the indications appear to be the most favorable, will place them in a position which even the Northern States may envy. The Southern people, fortunately for themselves, have had no credit for several years past, and have therefore no debts at the present rime. They have been forced to live economically, and depend entirely upon their own resources, while the Northeners, as a rule, have been extravagant and wasteful. It is probable that in the event of the occurrence of the financial panic which some persons regard as imminent, the Southern people would feel the shock much less keenly, and recover from it much more rapidly than some of the more wealthy and apparently more prosperous Northern States. The condition of the cotton market at the pres ent time indicates that no material reduction is likely to occur in the present prices of the peat staple. The supply or cotton in both Englana and the United States is scarcely adequate to the requirements of consumers during the interval that elapses before the new begins to come forward. The cable quotations of 12-}d- for middling uplands at Liverpool, is a fortune for the Southern planter. That there will be no important reduction from this price, is apparent from the evident inadequacy of all the cotton fields in the world to supply the demands for consumption. The supply is tailing off from India, in spite of all the efforts of Englana to stipulate production in that region. The South for a series of years to come, will be the great source of cotton supply for the world. King cotton is recovering his lost throne, but he will reign henceforth as a constitutional monarch over freemen, not as a despot over slaves. Free labor will ulti: mately vindicate its superiority, oven in the cotton field. The Confederate Dead at Point Lookout. ?During the last three years of the war three thou-1 sand Confederate prisoners, who died in the prison and hospital of Point Lookout, were buriea in a spot near the shore of the Chesapeake Bay, which was enclosed by the Federal authorities with a temporary wooden fence. The falling of the fence, which has since decayed, the trampling of stock upon the graves, and the flooding of a portion of the low-lying land, have reduced the graveyard to a deplorable condition, the names on the headboards of some of the graves having become obliterated, and even some of the bodies having been exposed. The people of St. Mary's county, although greatly impoverished by the war, raised $2,500 by a lair in 1867 for the purpose of draining and enclosing the land, but, unfortunately, the whole of this sum was lost by the failure of the firm with which it was deposited. Our own community are now ?\AA?\ln aP Qf Aforu'o in fll A 1 u v ufwcu iu iug puupiw vj cu avimj ? ?uv restoration of this neglected cemetery?a work of common humanity, which the respect heretofore evinced in the care and decoration of the graves of those, whether of North or South, who fell during the war, leaves no reason to believe will be regarded with indifference. Notwithstanding the dilapidated condition of the " ' graves at Point Lookout, the friends of those buried there will be glad to learn that Mr. L. 0. Smith, to whom the land of the cemetery once belonged, and whose farm adjoins it, and who has reinterred at his own expense fifty of the bodies which had been exposed, has in his possession a correct list, furnished him by the surgeon of the post before his departure, of the names of all the Confederates interred in the cemetery, each name having a number attached, which corresponds with the numbers on the headboards, marking the graves. By this means the bodies even now, in the dilapidated condition of the place, can be readily identified. A copy of the list is in this city, at the office of Mr. J. Wesley Smith, secretary of the London Park Confederate Memorial Association, and can be seen upon application. Mr. Smith, of St. Mary's, has kindly volunteered, upon the receipt of instructions to that effect, to forward to their proper destination the remains of any of the Confederate soldiers interred in the cemetery, charging simply the actual cost of removal. Baltimore Sun. Health of New York.?There were six hundred and forty-three deaths in New York last week, an increase of one hundred over the previous week. A letter from the city says: The health board admit that there were three cases of cholera, but declined to say whether it was cholera morbus or of the; Asiatic type. It is no secret that a great many sudden deaths have occurred within the few days past, from complaints strongly resembling the latter, and to these the largely increased mortality officially announced is by many persons attributed. If the Board of Health would return to the former practice of publishing the diseases, as well as the total number of deaths, the public mind, in cases of this 4cind, would be less anxious than it is when left, as now, to grope in the dark. jinairaal aitit Commercial.
