Secretary of the Treasury.
THE PRESIDENT'S PABr>tit.-A writer in the Mern
ph's Post, who dates his letter from Tuscumbla, Ala.,
says:
While Andrew Johnson IR eic vated to the highest office
in the gift of the people, John S. Morgan, his formir
partner at Grenville, letm., in the tailfring business,
is living here plying his old trade, sad occasionally
transacting som?: bu inos? connected with his office,
viz., Justice of tho Peacp, to which he was but recently
appointed. The 'Squire eaj s he was decidodly a better
tailor than old ..inly, and minks it pesslog strange that
fortune should smile on the inferior of the twe, and
evinces much surprise that Andy does not remember
him when he looks *v. r the Unit hst of lucrative offices
to bo filled, and with some .?mpbasis declares that if be
were President, that not*ith-tanding Andy's Inferiority
as a tailor, be would make bim second to none in the
hst of his appointments Mrs. Morgan ls the Presi?
dent's own cousin, which fact also gives the 'Squire
good cause to comp am of his old chum's strange con?
duct._

The Charleston Market.
COTTON.-The foreign news by the Damasnu and
Cuba had a depressing effect on the market, and some?
what unsettled prices; but the s'.cck on sale is so light
that the transactions of the day, amounting to 120 boles,
were generally disposed cf at our previous quotations.
OATS.-2000 bushels of oats which were damaged by
being stored with phosphate of lime, wero sold yester?
day at auction; 400 bushels brought 64 cents per bushel,
weight, and 1600 bushels at 63 cents por bushel, weight.

Macon Market,
MACON, April 3.-COTTON.- The marke i on Monday |
opened briskly, and with rather advanced views on the
part of holders, which were freely met by buyers, and
150 bales changed hands at prices ranging from 25 to 31
cents extremes. To-daj there was not so much Cotton
offering, and it having transpired that there was a de?
clining tendency to'he last Liverpool markot, the de?
mand slackened, and only 40 bales changed hands at
prices not exceeding 30 cents.
Mobile Market.
MOBILE, April 2.-COTTON.-The demand In tho
morning was ?ancrai, but later in tho day, on receipt of
the unfavorable news per steamer from Liverpool, pri?es
were easier and more in favor of buyers. Factors ?ere
willing sellers st quotations. Sales or 1400 bales wer?
made at 35 to 35c. for Middling, the market closing quiot
and dull.

.??. Orleans Cotton Market.
The New Orleans Times of the 1st saya:
After tho weekly statement wu completed last
evei lng, there were some . fur thor arrivals, with nn ag?
gregate of 2314 bales, which will go into the current
week's receipts. There were also additional arrivals
thia morning, and the total being quite imposing, had
an unfavorable influence on the market, inducing same
purchasers to withdraw, in the hops of operating at
lower rates on Monday. Under these circumstances
there was but little competition among buyers, and fac?
tors who wished to realize were compelled to meet the
demand more freely. The sales, however, were to a fair 1
extent, summing up 2600 bales, token by ten brokers,
at irregular and generally easier prices, showing, lu fact,
an average failing off of Kc per pound, but for the
present we make no change in our quotations, remark?
ing, at the same time, that the outside figures can only
be had for good staple lota of strict classification. With
this qualification we continue to quote Ordinary 32c to
31c; Good Ordinary at 35c to 36c; Low Mlddlixg at
37c. to 38c, and Middling at 40c

Memphis Market.
MEMPHIS, April 2.-The morning was stagnant, only
a few and ?mall sales being made at a cent lower than
r oturday-Middling 32 to 33 conta. The New York noon
dispatch brought the Utile market existing to a stand.
In New York Oettoa-was nommai and unobanged-Gold
281,'. The Scotland and City of Paris were in with nows
to tho 21st-Cotton had declined ,'i'd., 34,000 bales sold,
and quoting 19*id. The Money market was gloomy,
and this probably caused the declino in Cotton. Prussia
and Anstrls, who joined togethor tj steal Schleswig
Uolsteln from Denmark, arc quarreling about the divis?
ion of tho spoil. 1 he quarrel may lead to war-tho foar
of war disturbs tho Monoy market-disturbs tho price
of Cotton. England is also in trouble about the stability
and so un lncss of somo of her limited liability com?
panies, and this also assists to disturb the Money mar?
ket. But little Cotton was reported as sold lu answer
to onr Inquiries ; we neglect tho more trivial lots, and
only mention sales of ?5 bales, Ordinary, at 30J.; 14 at
Mi, 27 at 32Kc and 59 at 83c, Middling; 12 at 31c,

[I'rom thc ?ame J
Our accounts as to thc prospe-t cf the next crop have
again improved. The complaints to which we referred
in our circular of tho 6th instant proved to havo been
rather exceptional. Many letter: have recently upreared
in Southern papers arguing against the probabi ity of a
largo yield These, however, are often written for a
purpose, while admissions such as tho fellowing (which
aro moro frequently fouud In private letters than in
nes/tpapers) sre occasionally mauo on the other side of
the question, aud probaily with more truth Tho fol?
lowing wc take from a letter of Mr. N. H. Bice, of Flor
unco, Alabama:
"I must say to you that I was very apprehensive as to
the course Governor Parsons adopted at the outset in
reorganizing our State; but tho thing worked so admi
I rably that my doubts havo all vanished. I have never
? seen tuoro peace and quiet lu tho country than crista at
: this time; everybody is at work; a new order of things
! bas Sprung up. Such prosperity I never expected to
I soo In this country. I am happy to state to yen that our
I ftoo negroos aro doiug fin ly. Wo have no trott' io with
j them; they have all gone to work manfully: thoy {?ive
j un impetus to trado that wc never before had."
I Similarly glowing accounts came from candid persons
who havo recently traveled In Texas. There is. howev?
er, a difflciUy lu getting information on this ?uhjeit
I from tho ordinary cottou anti: rititles of tho South,
which looks well for a prusrect. 2he difficulty would
certainly not exist if very unfavorable reports could
conscientiously be sent.
PEU CONTRA.-A person extenslvtly engaged in business
in Ooorgia reports that the next cotton crop of the State
Will be small, but thoso of corn and cane will be largo.
