The Daily News. 1*RE)AY MORNING, JANUARY 12, 18G6. ?tee ?DTcrnor of Florida - David S. Wallter. Thia ?fctingnished gentleman, *-ho with singo-, ' fer TflnarjJmity has been called to the chief magis tracy ef tho Stnto at this important period iu her pohtical history, was boni in Kentucky, thc home cf the inmortal CLAY, whoso pohtical principles ho inherits. His father scrrcd in thc wnr of thc Involution and of 1S12; was a momberoi Congress from Kentucky, and died at Washington in March, 182Q. Governor WALKET, emigrated, to Florida in 1837, when ho immediately engaged in tho practice of law. In 1845 he was elected to the first State Senate, and was made Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, but resigned his scat after the first session. lu ISIS ho was elected a member of tho House, and again placed "at the head of the Ju? die iary Committee. In 1850 he was sleeted Re? gister of the Land Office, and re-elected in 1354. ' In 181? he was nominated by th.? Whigs for Gov? ernor, and, though tho Democrats had a majority of 2000 votas in the State, he was enly defeated by S0O votes. This was the only defeat ha ?ver smstained. In 18S8 he waa again re-elected Register, and without opposition, while he was absent from'th? Stat?. In 1859 he iras elected Axsoeiato Justice of tbs Ssprerfls Court for six years by th? largest vote ever given for any man for any office in the State, ihci showing th? high appreciation of his merits by his political oppouonts. And now he is called hy the unanimous voice of the people-after a r?v?lation which has torn up the foundations of ?mr eoeial and pohtical systems, and whilo thc Wiechs sf former hopes lay nil around-to the .flee of Governor of thc State. Thc honor came asROOght, and it will bo sustained with thc same unswerving integrity which has always marked his official and private career. In his inaugural address Governor WALKJUI thus feelingly alludes to his personal history : ''Twenty-eight years ago, I was a penniless stranger, from a far distant State, seeking in this bright land a place where, by closo attention to business, 1 might earn an honest living. I fotiud it hero. The people took me by the hand, and ever since, whether in prosperity or adversity, peace or war. have held mein thcembracc of their confidence. As a lawyer, Representative, Senator, Begi?ter ef Public Lauds, and Judgo of tho Su? preme Court, they havo always stood by, encour? aged, sustained, and, with their approbation, moro precious than tho gold of Ophir, rewarded me. Six years ago, when they placed mc upon the Bench of the Supreme Court, i-fondly hoped my politicaL days were numbered, and that the residuo of rov life was to bc spent in the calmer labors of judicial investigation. But now, the tornado of oivil discord having swept over the land, prostra? ting every interest, cn'urcly destroying our labor system, abd uprooting the very foundations of our political edifice, they have ended me. with a unani? mous voice, to preside as ('rand Master at thc re? building of tho Temple. My obligations arc the more sensibly felt from tho'fact that this honor . has been conferred without one.word of solicita? tion, without the writing of a single letter, or the making of a single speech-without a pledge, a platform or a party." Gov. WALKES is now about fifty years of age; about six feet high, of slight form, and not -.f vigorous health; of singularly pleasing addrCBt and modest and unassuming manners-thc poor? est may approach him with assurance, whilst thc proudcBtrwill acknowledge him their peer. Floride is peculiarly fortunate in this time or^tjM^distrcss, in having one to ??preside as Grand Master at the rebuilding*" of her political temple, whoso purit; .f-charactcr and long tried integrity give full as? surance that ber in torey ts will be safe, while Iiis ability and experience afford sufficient guarantee against errors and exoc tive entanglements. [Florida l?mes. Cotton and the National Finances. The Motioned InteUigeruer thus puts tho existing relations betweon cotton and thc finances of the country : The cotton question involves thc financial ques? tion. Few. financiers in ?ie country believe that I ] tho national debt can b?TJaid, or tho national :, credit maintained, unless the cotton fields of thc t Southern States arc again reworked for a supply ? of the staple which has been, and may now be . again, our chief medium of exchange willi foreign j nations. It has been suggested, indeed, and per- t haps by some sanguine and credulous persons be? lieved, that our gold and silver mines are to totally 6up< rsedo cotton in our foreign exchango. It is a vain expectation. Our cotton fields are our tichest mines. Cotton is upc.io, and that chielly is to enatle us to resume specie payments. Some persons again havo cher?s-hed the belief that our granaries were to feed a large portion of tho inhabitants of commercial and manufacturing Europe. That wc have occasionally exported largo quantities of breadstuffs and provisions has been owing to exceptional circumstances, not likely to occur soon or often. The etport of breadstuffs has now nearly ceased, partly by reason of tho high prices of grain consequent upon our inflated eurreney. Large crops of cotton must bo pro? duced before our cereals can find a profitable mar? ket abroad. Tho cotton export will restore tho specie standard, and then wheat and corn and ?irovisious can be produced at a less cost, and af ?rded in foreign markets at prices which will HC oore a steady amount, while, at thc same time, it will increase thc amount! of foreign consumption, especially in the manufacturing districts. We arc now ou tho eve of the greatest cotton famine that has ever occured. There aro not more than seven or eight huudred thousand bales of cotton in this country, including the crop of the present year aud tho remains of former crops. The time is at hand for making arrangements for the next year's crops. We have favorable intelli? gence as to these preparations in some quarters. Wo also havo information that political uncer? tainties discourage planting enterprise in tho Louth. Capital and enterprise hesitate to under? take planting on a large scale, while the relations of the planting States to the Union remain un? settled, and also while the condition of the Southern laboring class remains* a subject of politisai agitation. Large amounts of capital have, however, been sent t i tho South, either for the purchase of cot? ton, or its production, by commercial men of Northern cities. But more circulation is needed in order to provide for tho production and the movement of a large crop for the next year. Na? tional banks arc called for in the South, but they eaiinot be authorized to the extent required, un? less Congress provide?, in accordance with the recommendation of the Comptroller of the Cur? rency, Mr. Freeman Clurkc, for an increase of thu limit of thc national currency to four hundred millions. ' The introduction of steam tate. China, at first resolutely opposed by the native population, is now growing so much in favor uith Chinese merchants and capitalists that foreigners arc ap? prehendive concerning the result. Thc Hong Kong Pref* says : 'Tho China trade is fast falling into the hands o? the natives. They have three groat advantages over the foreigner : first, th~y j j h\o and trawl ai ahmt oue ti'he "f tho expense; I, second, antlorstaiiJing ila- language and being h enabled ?o penetrate t<> any pin o? the country j( they please, they can obtain corraci information, j ' and pnreh?se -A tue spot of prodJnion cr manu? facture ; third, they eau Pud the Inist market on arrival."

AMD ADTEBTISXR Oti ' 'THE 6ITDATI0X." ?VFrom^lie Hob iib Register ^^drertisvr wc t?fSi thc following article, giving a statement nf an un? fortunate occurrence r.t tho Mobile theatre, on Wednesday ami Thursday nights of last week, and j tho comments of tho editor upon thom : Thc Mobile theatre was the Bceno of a very un? pleasant occurrence on Thursday evening-an oc? currence which would have bc ri avoided had there been a proper understanding of the true re-1 lat ions of position and feeling between tho citizens | and tho military. fjur reader? will bear us wit-1 ness that from "thc moment that wc resumed tho editorial pen of thu paper, after thc defeat of the Southern cau9c in thc field, wo have been thc steady and earnest advocate of submission to the decree of tho war, and have held that both wisdom and duty enjoined a renewal of allegianco to the Government of ths United States. Having taken tho oath ourselves, we have been faithful to it. Wo did not, however, take an oath of allegiance to any party, especially such a party as the Radical Disunionists, which is now opposing thc noble efforts of th? President to restore tranquili? ty to th? country, by reuniting its broken frag? ments under one protecting government. This party is not less the enemy of the North than it is of the 8outh, for its policy looks to ravishing from the lips of the North the fruits of that triumph of arms which it paid for in hecatombs of lives and mountains of- treasure-that fruit was a restored ami unbroken Unieii. When we attack thc policy and principles of this obnoxious party, let no Union man, more ardent than thoughful, mistake our real against these enemies of tho American people for a vestigo or taint of thc old ''Rebel" leaven. It is in this same spirit of an earnest de? sire to smooth the way to a reunion of a broken country, in heart as well as in political interest and fact, that we approach the subject of the unseem? ly and unnecessary row that occurred in the thea? tre. It opens an opportunity to say to tho officers Df the United Slates, and especially to the younger gentlemen among them, who arc moro likely to be carried away from sound judgment by thc ardor sf their feelings, somethings that havo been on Dur mind, and wh;ch, perhaps, they have not thought of. With few and rare exceptions, thc hospitable doors of Southern houses have not been opened to these officers. With ample leisure on their hands, which young mon love to devote to so? ciety; feeling that, as gentlemen residing in South :rn communities, belonging to an honorable pro? fession and the soldiers of a powerful Govern? ment, they arc entitled to the hospitable civilities jf the citizens, they are naturally not pleased nt tn exclusion, . hielt they incorrectly attribute toa rebellious insincerity in Southern* professions of illcgiance to tin: Government. Now. gentlemen Juicers-we address ourselves only to tho gentle? men among them, for we havo long nineo found ?hat reason is thrown away upon all who a c smit? ten with thc Radical manta-reflect a little. You Iiold that, if our people keep aloof from you social? ly, or show some signs of restiveness when "Yan? kee Doodle" is played for their entertainment at the theatre, they givo tokens of disloyalty to tho Government, and, in your opinion, their rebellious spirit is not qnonchouj and requires a little more chastisement and bayonet argument. Now, as to tho first, do you remember that there is scarcely a domestic circle in this land in which your pre? sence would not pulsate a painful reminder on i bruised hearts not yet sered by tho healing hand of time, that tho place of a loved son, brother, husband, or lover, or a revered father, tho stay of that household, was made vacant by thc power of your arms? Do you supposo because this people is conquered, and has shown every manifestation ol a sincere and earnest purpose to ? return to and be faithful to the renewed aile-1 giauce to which it has sworn, that, therefore, thc natural feelings of the human heart havo been eradicated? Though beaten in the great political conflict of thirty years brewing, and at last sub? mitted to tho arbitrament of thc sword, do you forget that wo are yet men and women V "We should he angels to feel otherwise. Rut if it were only the remembrance of kindred bloodshed, thc difiiculty wo mention would not bc insurmount? able. There arc others, weightier still. Let us ask any candid of!?c?H?*>f ttoeM'u?fl-cl States army, '.iii what capacity ure you hero? ls it in that of a soldier of tho United "States, on United States soil, as you would bo in New York or Philadel? phia?" ?Vero it so, the doors ot* Southern hos? pitality would Hy open to you. But are you not iero to keep "watch " and ward" over a :onquercd people? Are you not, in some ?ense, our jailors, jealously watching our ivords and autious, and keenly expectant of md ready ?to punish every symptom of a .ebellious feeling which has no existence? UT n drunken fellow, with his brain not his )wn, cries '"hurrah for Jeff Davis! " do you not uako a great "to do*' about it, and clap lum in a nilitary prison V Do you not confiscate and linc or arms found on a, white citizen? Do you l?Bt icrutinize and Interfera with our laws, and watch he proceedings of our courts with nervous sensi )ility, lest wu should act like brutes to thc poor md evcr-to-bc-pitied freedmen? If you say "voa," hen, in what sedan arc wo your fellow citizens? iou order "Yankey Duodlu" to be-played as a 'National air" (which it is not), and then aro in lignaut because we do not applaud. Where is thc ?atiouahty that you require us to stand hy, and ovo and adore? We have none. Having done all vc could to sccuro it, shaped our laws according o your Irishes, and contrary to our own judgment md principles, to please you-ice have no national? ly. Wo arc without a country. Wo cannot thrill indcr tho tonca and tho Inspiring poetry of the 'Star Spangled Banner," because your Congress las just decided, by ignominiously cxclud ng our representatives, that that banner s not for Us, except to pin us down rith its bayonets, and make slaves of us under ts folds, consecrated by our common succo? urs to liberty. That Congress has decided bat we are not States, nor citizens of tho United tates, but rebels and territorial subjects. Shall ro then rejoice for what we do not possess ? Shall '0 cry Hallelujah, when our humbled circumstan es force lamentations from our lips ? Give us io right to rejoice in our freedom ; to thrill when tie national airs of our. country vibrate in our auls ; to feel that we live under a government nat is just to our rights and respects our man? ned, and you will lind tho old time returned, hen tho South waa always foremost in tho field at ie country's call, aa Washington and his Virgiui na were on tho heights of Boston. This is the ay to cucourage and to assure a loyalty that is ursting for development in the Southern heart, nd ia e ver repressed by acts that remind us of our oudition-a people without a country. And now, aving triumphed over us, is it honorable in brave ion, especially of those who wear the uniform of he profession of honor, to add to the humiliation f a people who at least aro Americans of your food? ls this thc way to bifbtuiii thc poli y, tho grand policy, of restored fratcrnitv and lolitieal reconstruction so wisely shaped by the ?resident of the United States and tho Com nander-iu-Chicf of its armies? Of the disturbance rt the theatrelhere is little to say except of re rrotthat it sprang from the mistaken views wc lave been considering. " Yankee Doodle " has >oeu played in thu theatre a dozen times before vithout uuto or comment. On Wednesday, as wo ire advised, a little knot Of tipsy hoy? hissed when t Struck Up. This was replied to by others with tnplaUM', and so the h.?use was in an instant <li ridcd between those who hissed and thone who iprtoved. We are free to admit that it ought not to have been hlssud : but surely it was not politic, ay playing it, to run the risk of making the thea? tre au an na of political erneute. The result of this unpremeditated excitement ta Wednesday night was an order to repeat "Yan? kee Doodle" tho following nip;ht, and tho prcsenco it a strong guard and numerous officers with their side arius, and the moment the air began, the rising of thc o?ieers to their feet with vocife? rous applause and clapping of hands. As might lave been expected, this produced some hisses of hsauprobsti?n. Then cum an order to extin? guish thc light-? ni:d clear thc holme. For some ;auso tho lights were ?aly partially put out, and i hundred sud fifty people rose ami left thc. build ug. The curtain rose and ibo play went on with mt further interruption These aro the facta as twirly as wi: could gather them. The officers who took part in this portion of the play "not in the nils." must determine for themselves how far ?lev hive aided tho President in II?H policy of ro mwtniction, and to what extent tho ?uni total of .loyalty"' has been increased in the community by he'evening's performances._ Orn colored "fellow-citizens" aro not behaving hcmselvcs well in Mobile. Tho last copy of the Uejister that has reached our table contains an tvcotint of the murder ol a youth, about twelve .ear? of age, by a party of negroes. Also tho nu.-dor of an old lady by a negro man who had jeen in her ompiov. ' Stepa had been taken to jring tho perpetrators ol these horrid orimes to ?peedy justice. The ?few Bankrupt Elli. [From'the Cincinnati Enquirer.] The proposed National Bankrupt Act, -which has been read twice in tho House ol' Representatives, and referred to a committee, is a long document, which would fill nine of theso columns in small stypc. Tho bill, as it now stands, gives tho pre? sent Untied States court jurisdiction in all cases arising undcr^hfvact, and rcgula'.t s tho appoint jR-:i^::;:i:*^HLgad of orne?te v.-Up are to a?; in judicial capaeityrrrrBcr thf^Wrpcrvision of the courts and subject to their order, the practice in all proceedings in bankruptcy, and some other matters of merely professional interest. Tho bill then provides for volniitaryf^ankruptcy, on the motion ortho bankrupt himself; and involuntary bankruptcy, on tho motion of tho creditors of thc bankrupt. The provision? aro distinct ns to each. In involuntary bankruptcy it is provided that any person residing within thc jurisdiction of thc United States, owing debts provablo under thc act exceeding J5UU in amount, can apply' by peti? tion to the Judge of thc judicial district in "which he resides, setting forth his inability to pav his debts, and annexing a sworn Schedule of bis debts, their amount and nature, with tho names and resi? dences of his creditors, annexing, also an inven? tory of all property of ovcry kind in his possession, or in which he has any interest; and the hiing of such petition is to bc an act of bankruptcy, and the petitioner shall bo adjudged a bankrupt" Thc Judge is then to is-sno a warrant directing thai Marshal to tako possession of all the debtor's pro-f perty of every kind, and keep the sams unlil tho, appointment of an assignee, and directing him to' notify creditors to prove their debts. Assignee^ aro te be-chosen by tho groator part in value ol creditors, and such assignees,-when approved by the Judge, tako possession of tho debtor's proper? ty and all bookp and papers rolating theroto, with certain slight exceptions. * All d?lits nnd liabilities existing, though not ma turotl or n"t ascertained in amount at thc timo of the adjudication of bankruptcy,' may bo proved against tho bankrupt's estate. And nil claims provable under the act can be prosecuted in no other manner than under tho act, except for tho mere purposo of deciding their amount. All J, claims aro to be presented on oath, and aro to be investigated judicially in easo cither their amount or validity is disputed. Tho assignees have power also, under tho supervision of thc courts, to sell or redeem property, and to take various prescribed measures for thc advantago of tho estate, and to bring and defend suits on behalf of thc estate. Wages due any operative, clerk or house servant, to an amount not exceeding fifty dollars, aro to have priority over all claims of individuals, and to be first paid in full. At thc final dividend claims arc to be paid in full in the following order: First, fees and costs of tho proceedings. Second, all dues to tho United States. Third, all dues to thc Stato in which thc proceedings arc pending. Fourth, wages of operatives, etc., which nave ac? crued during thc six months preceding the first untie." of tho proceedings as above mentioned. Fifth, all dues to persons entitled to prioritv, aside from the provisions of tho act, under thc laws of tho United States. Un due notice, and at tho limo and under tho conditions provided by tho act, the final discharge to be given to the bankrupt from all claims prova? ble under tho act ; such discharge to bo withheld, or to bc invalid if granted, in eas" of any fraud or violation on thc part of the pi titionor of tho pro? vision of tho act in that behalf. No second discharge is to be granted to any bankrupt whose estato is ;.n.-iitlicient to pay seventy percent, of tho claims against bini without tho consent of three-fourths, in value, of his creditors. And no third discharge can be granted in any ease. But a bankrupt who? has jiaid all claim's existing at the time of a previous bank? ruptcy shall be entitled to a discharge a? though there had been no previous application. Creditors may oppose tho?discbarge, and have thc grounds of 'tlicii^*emposition trie.l by jury.
