Wo are daily reeoiving through ex? changes, correspondents, and from other sources, the most gratifying assurances of returning, prosperity throughout the Sotrtlrern' States-, including the progress of internal improvements; the increase of shipping in the maritime ports; the increase in the extent of land planted, and in tho aggregate and quality of the crops; the introduction ol a large and valuable class of immigrants; the influx of capital from tho North, and to a loss oxtont from Europe; tho rise in the val? ue ol Southern securities, and the gen erol development of the resources of the country. This prosperous state of affairs, al? though as yet but comparative, it must be remembered has obtained in conse? quence of the natural resources and at? tractiveness of the country, and in the face of political and governmental diffi? culties and obstructions such as we have rarely been imposed on a people. A mil? itary satrapy, sustaining a Freedmen's Bureau used as a political and partisan machine in the interests of Northern car? pet-baggers; a denial of representation, and of political rights to the property owners, the only legitimate and represen? tative men of the South ; a dilatory and constantly tinkered and changed enact mentibr the po'itical reconstruction of the Southern States, and for their recog? nition as such by Congress, have not been such influences as would attract capital or timid and peaceful immigrants; and yet in spite of all this there is a manifest and gratifying evidence of progress in the right direction, encouraging the be? lief that if the Southern people will con? tinue quietly to pursue their avocations, offer inducements to capital and immigra? tion, and leave quarrelling and fighting to Congress, it will continue increasing eve? ry year, and soon place that section in its relative position previous to the war, so far as agricultural and commercial pros? perity are considered. All that the South? ern people have to do now is to study how to develop the resources of their sec? tion, how te improve its icputation in the North and abroad, and to assure those yvho choose to go and settle upon her soil, to till her fields, to work her mines, or to put her immenso water power into use, that they will be cordially welcomed and protected in their persons and in their properly. Wo have no idea that, under the nd ministration of General Grant, this delay? ing and confusing matters by constantly reconstructing reconstruction will be tol? erated or continued. He undoubtedly meant to convey his determination in this matter to the people, North and Soath, when he announced his platform as " peace." The work of the last three years will not be gono over again. A sufficient number of those elected with him will undoubtedly sustain his wishes. He will probably not surround himself ?with troublesome and quarrelsome spirits, unfavorable to anything that savors of settlement and quiet, and these are strong indications that in many important par? ticulars the Southern people will be agree? ably disappointed in him. The matter of universal negro suffrage?Iho worst the South has to fear politically?is in less danger of being legislated upon them by Congress at the present lime than at any previous time since the war. It may be enforced by constitutional amendment, in which case all of the States wot Id suffer in proportion to the extent of their negro population, and of course it would bear hardest on the South in some respects. But after all we doubt if it would be a bit worse than in those States of the North ?where, iho vote of each party being near? ly equal, tho balance of political power may be held by this ignorant and impe? cunious race. Tho while property hold? ers of the South will always exercise a more powerful influence over their sable fellow-citizens than is possible elsewhere, from the very fact that the}' raised and once owned them. In addition to this, there is ample room to doubt whether the proposed amend? ment to the Constitution providing for in? discriminate suffrage and offiee-l.oldiui: will over be adopted by the required con stitutional majority?three-fourths of all tho States. It is undoubtedly unpopular in tho West. It has been voted down by large majorities when proposed ir. a mod? ified form in six or seven ol the States. Tho West does not seem to bow down to negro equality. Jt h:.s ineffaceable pre? judices against it; and its only chance is a submission to the Legislatures nt vv in session, in order to prevent the voice of the people from being heard. The delay in submitting it, if continued but a short time longer, will prevent these Legisla? tures from acting on it, or receiving ii before their adjournment, and then the vote of the West, combined with that ol tho South and such of the Northern States as will also oppose negro equality, will he all-sufficient to prevent the ratification of the proposed amendment. Let it come before the people fairly and squarely, and upon tho question of negro suffrage or no negro'suffrage. We are firm in our con? viction that negro Huffra??o will bo voted down by an overwhelming majority. The sentiment of our people is undoubtedly in Javor of reserving to the several States those rights affecting social and domestic relations which but few even the most despotic powers have been able to control and regulate against the will of the peo? ple. T<J- the Southern people, therefore, we say be of good cheer. Your natural ad ?vantages arc already r>e airing good friths. YMF political prospet ts are cheering, and your future prosperity and influence as sured, it' nothing on your own part inter? venes to ro-create prejudice or alarm.? Detroit Free Press. Large Yield of Cotton. Wo find tho following communication in tho February number of tho Southern Cultivator: a nine acre lot of cotton. Editors Southern Cultivator:?In com plianco with your request, in the January number of the Cultivator. I herewith hand you tho details and results of tho cultiva? tion of nine acres of cotton, the past sea? son, and trust its plain statement will correct the extravagant reports, in circu? lation, of my "wonderful yield"?also prove u satisfactory answer to the numer? ous letters addressed to mo from all parts of the countiy, as it is impossible for mc to reply singly to each. Land on the hill side had been well en? riched lor many years ; ploughed an aver? age depth of ten inches in March, rows laid oft'four and a half feet apart with Brink's No. 1, and a mixture of 200 pounds Peruvian Guano, 100 pounds dis? solved bones, 1U0 pounds plaster and 100 pounds salt per acre, strewed in the fur 1 row. The earth was then returned and a April soed furrow opened. In middle April, at intervals of twenty inches, the seed i^a close selection of Dickson's of my own picking) was dropped and covered with the foot. Whon the plants were well up, tho rows were lightly and care? fully scraped with sharp hoes and the alleys kept clean with a handle harrow. As the season progressed, the plants were gradually thinned to one in tho drill. The grass and weeds were smothered, as soon as they sprouted, by tho constant use of the harrow, 60 that tho cotton got the whole benefit of the land. The crop from the nine acres amounts to seventeen ba?;s, lour hundred and forty pounds each. The land was not all meas? ured, but I feel safe, in estimating it at nine acres. One field, which was selected as an everage of the whole crop, was care? fully surveyed by Prof. Rutherford and contains 3 67-100 acres, yielding 9,652 pounds seed cotton or (2,630 pounds per acre.) One portion, say one and one half acres, very thin land, scarcely made ene bag per acre, whilo on another portion, heavily dressed for Irish potatoes in 1867, the yield was probably 4,000 pounds per acre. There were over two hundred bear? ing fruit trees, from five to ten years old, scattered through the fields, so that it is impossible to arrive at any correct esti? mate of the actual yield. Good land, deep ploughing, pure fertili? zers, carefully selected seed, and shallow, COnlinou8 work produced the result. Respectfully Edward Bancroft. Charleston, S. C, January I8?0. -?v Cold a Cause of Disease.?Let those who are disposed to discourage warm air in our houses, or to call our present mild winter unhealthy, read the following ex? tract from an editorial in a lato number of the London Lancet. 'There is a case of disease which used to bo greatly considered, but which has of lute been rather neglected?that is, cold. Rntnsey, in his interesting address on public health, at the Social Science meeting, suggested that, in the strength of our new conviction of tho necessity of fresh air, wo were rather apt to forgot the evil of having too much of it, or of hav? ing it at a low temperature. The older ph}-sicians thought more of oold as a cause of disease than of almost anything else. And. indeed, it is a mighty producer of disease and death which has of late been greatly ovcrlockcd. It slays its thousands every week in the winter months. It causes pneumonia and bronchitis and pleu? risy in pcoplo who do well in our English summers. It sometimes kills by mere shock. It is no friend to any diathesis. In short it is a lethal influence to he feared as much as an epidemic poison like that of influenza or cholera.' Retriuitite Justice.?The Knoxville Press and Herald says that the days ol miracles have not yet passed away. Some months ago, the Rev. -Mr. Neal, a minister of the Methodist Church South, was tied to a tree and flogged, while on his wsy home from church. The perpetrators of m.e outrage were not arrested, hut, says the Press, "a stronger power than that : winch administers human law has brought retribution upon them. Out of the entire number of ruffians, three have since died, one was recently thrown from his horse and received injuries which j.re believed to be mortal, while another is now lying in jail for crime. Even the tiee to which .r. Neal was tied by his persecutors, has been ?mitten by the same unseen, but ever watchful poiver, ani is dead." - ? It is teld of Billy Hibbard, tho Meth? odist, that once when roll was vailed in the conference, his name was read William. He ruse at once and objected, saying that his name was not William, it was Billy.? "But Brother MibbarcT," pleaded Bishop Asbnry, ''Billy is a little hoy's name!" "Yes, Bishop," was the quick reply, "and I was a little boy when my lather gave it to me!" ? A Physician passing by a stone ma? son's, bawled out to him, "Good morning, Mr. W-, hard at work, I see; you fin? ish your gravestones as far as 'In memory of,' and then you wait, I suppose, to see who wants a monument next?" "Why, yes," replied the old man, resting for a moment on his mallet, "unless sombodv is sick, and you are doctoring him, and then I keep right on !" ? At Lynn, Mass., a school teacher asked a little girl who the first man was. She answered that she did not know. The question wan put to the next,sin Irish child, who answered loudly, " Adam, sir," with apparent satisfaction. " Law." said the first scholar, "you need'nt feel so proud about it; he was'nt an Irishman." ? Rev. Mr. Murray, a young man re? cently settled over the Park street Church in Boston, startled his staid parishioners the other Sunday, by inserting a petition in his prayer that the Lord also "bless those middle-aged females in the congre? gation whose youthful hope had been dis? appointed." ? Ic is a singular fact that ladies who know how to preserve every thing else, can't preserve their tempers. Yet it may easily he done on the self sealing principle. It i* only to keep the mouth of the. vessel tiyhtly closed. ? "A three year old" neighbor saw a drunken man "tacking" through the street. "Mother," said he, "did God make that man?" She replied in the affirmative.? The little fellow reflected for a moment, and then exclaimed, "I wouldn't have done it." ? "Why don't you fire at those par? tridges?" exclaimed a gentleman to a spoitsman; "don't you see you have the whole covey before you?" "I know 1 have," said Tomkins, "but when I have a good aim one, two or three others will fly up right betwixt me and the one I aim at." ? The man who can crack a joke in half a minute after a fifty-two pound weight lias fallen on his toes, may be called ex crnliatingly funny. ? The word debt is composed of the initials of "dun every body twice." Cred? it is formed of the initial letters of "call regularly every day?I'll trust." ? The noblest sight on earth is a man talking reason and his wife listening to him. ? The only chance for some men's hats ever to contain anything valuable i8 to pass them round for pennies.

THOMAS DAWSON, North-East corner of Public Square, Oct 14, 186S 17 LIFE INSURANCE. -:o: "THE important subject of Lifo Insurance is gradually and deservedly gaining public attention by the force of its own merits. Tho time is not far distant when the death of a man leaving hii family unprovided for by a Policy of Lifo Insu? rance, will leave tUo Btuin of neglected duty upon hi* character. It is a duly which every man owes to his own dependents and to the community, lie who neglect a it is not a good husband, father, or citizen, lie has no right, even, to risk tho chance of throwing the future support of his family, in case of his death, on the community at large, or on relatives and friends, when it is in Iii? power so easily and surely to provido against such contingencies.?Nfir York Express.
