4000 barrels. The daily production at Pitholeis
estimated at about 2000 barrels, with a prospect- of
large inorease. On the Eanawha, in the WoBt Vir

1500 or 2000 barrels a day.
The Common Gounod of Albany have adopted
resolutions looking to practical aid to the Fenians;
and the Common Council of Troy, with the entire
approbation of Mayor PLAGO, was to follow suit on
the 1st. The Fenian Rifle Association held a most
important meeting in Troy on the 80th ult., and
were in session again on the 31st. Everywhere
the circles of the organization exhibit more of
- practical meaning in their attitude, in view of the
approaching possible executions in Canada, than
ever was known before. Anns are scattered in
great quantities all along from White Hall to Bur?
lington, and a largo quantity aro and havoboena

far distant from St. Albans, Vermont.
Tho Great Eastern, after hor cable pulling, is
sadly in need ofa thorough overhauling, but ow?
ing to her enormous sizo, it is yet c. question where
ibo can bo laid up. On the 3d instant the direc?
tors appliod to the Mersey Dook Board for permis?
sion to have hor docked and' placed on a gridiron
in Alfred Dock, at Birkenhead. Tho application
was declined, because oven if tho padcUo-boxea
were taken down, it would be very difficult to get
the big ship through tho outrances, the wido?t be?
ing but ono hundred foet clear, whilo, as she stood,
tho Great Eastern was ona hundred and ninotoon
feet wido. Thon, tho length of tho quays waB but
six hundred feet, whilo that of the VOBBOI was six
hundrod and ninety-two foot from stem to taffrail.
Tho board would also have to pump five and a half
millions of gallons of water out of " tho dock, and
they had no appliance.? at prosont for doi ng so. In
three months she might bo got through tho north?
ern entrances, but even that, owing to tho strong
currents, would bo a vory clangorous operation. So
tho Great Eastern was at last accounts stiU afloat.

THURSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 8,1866.
? As exceedingly well written article, from tl
pon ol' our distinguished Southern noYoli?
Jon ii ESTEN ?OOKB, entitled "Along tl
Jame?," besides a variety of other intcrcslii)
matter, may bc found on our inner pages to-da;
ELECTION RETURNS.
Our readers will have been aware of the fa<
that elections occurred on the Otb in the State
of Massachusetts, New York, Delaware, Marj
land, New Jersey, Illinois, Wisconsin, Mich
gan, Missouri, Kansas and Nevada; and of tl
further fact that the course of these electior
was looked to with much solicitude in ever
section of the country. It was not expect cc
of course, that they would change materiall
the relative strength of parties; but it was cor
sidered of importance to know whether th
tendency of public feeling was to sustain th
j Government, or still further swell.the ovei
shadowing power of the Republican party.
The returns from all these States have nc
been received, nor may those . which we hav
received bc entirely accurate, but it is reasonn
bly certain, however, that tho Republican
have gained. There has been some diminutio
of thc Republican majority in New York. Thei
majority in 1865 was 27,800, and it is now sup
posed to be between 5000 and 15,000. It is sup
posed, also, that the Democrats have gained i:
Delaware and Maryland, but these advantage
have been vastly overbalanced by thc return
already'recorded in favor of the Republicans
In Massachusetts they have gained 22,000; ii
New Jersey 3000; Illinois 10,000; Winoonsii
8000; that they have gained in Missouri is an
nounced, though the amount ?B not stated; an<
in all the other States, from which reports hav
not yet come in, it is to be inferred that thei:
success has been ?nore or lesB decided. It i;
not to be expected that these results will hay<
any practical effect upon the course of pol?tica
event?. It was not to have been expected tha
they could have been otherwise. The massci
of the North, to whom the appeal was made
haveacommon feeling that they have achieved ii
the recent war some great material advantage
to them the restoration of thc Union was not o
the slightest consideration, and when the Gov
ernmcnt went before those masses proposing
that, as an act of justice lo the South, thoj
should permit the restoration of the Union, pw
in doing*so they should forego the power to op
press it further, and was met . by the Republi?
cans with the proposition that they should keej
the States of the South as provinces to bc
plundered at pleasure, there could have . beet
no reasonable question of the course the massei
would approve. Men love justice in the abst ract
but tho most of them believe they pay ever}
debt to virtue when they praiBO her, and few
are willing to praotioe this or any other virtue
at what they conceive to be their own expense
This must have been evident to the Govern?
ment before it accepted the issue, andras it ii
certain it has determined to sustain its policy
of restoration, it is to bo inferred that its course
will be independent of these results.
BALTIMORE DIFFICULTY.
The difficulty in Baltimore is now, perhaps,
concluded, and there is little possibility of fur?
ther serious disturbance of the public peace. Thc
Governor ha? determined to remove the Com?
missioners, and has appointed other Commis?
sioners to supersede them; but, though they
refused to be superseded, procured warrants foi
the arrest pf the Commissioners newly appoint?
ed, and indicated the wish, if not the purpose,
with force and arms, to fight the matter
through, they seem ?o have subsided. General
GRANT has been upon the spot with, a force
doubtless considered adequate to back him ;
and though the affair still lingers, we adhere
to our opinion that no disturbance can occur.
This is the conclusion indicated by the pre?
sent condition of affairs. We think it not un?
likely that an issue of physical force will occur
between the Government and the Radical party.
Each runnning a government upon tho same
track, and in opposite directions, they may
come to a collision, and the imminence of such
a catastrophe is indicated by the excited state
of public feeling upon the subject of this con?
troversy.
The removol of Police Commissioners, even
in a city of thc size of Baltimore, is of itself a
vory unimportant matter to thc country, and
if it were a matter involving only thc interests
and order bf that city, there would Boarccly bo
j a paragraph about it. But as it is, the occur
[ renco has oooasioned a profound sensation.
? From one ond of tho country to tho other thc
feeling ?B intense at each phase of it? develop?
ment, and public feeling, more perceptive of
coming events Iban individual intelligence,
attributes to this a significance very much be?
yond that which is indioatcd on its surfaco.
Wo still believe, however, that the time is not
yet como. The stake is importan*!., and the
j Radical party would bo glad to carry tho State
{ of Maryland, but,they aro not yet at tho point
for which thoy will .madly play for it. Ready
for an issue, and destined to an issue that will
givo them .unrestricted control of tho Govern?
ment, they wcro not ready for that issue in
support of.'tho Baltimore Commissioners. The
achievement of success would not justify the
risk, while it is of thc last importance to them
to koop the weather-gauge of law, and to do no
act which will authorize the Government to usc
its force in putting them down. Tho time may
come, and will come, perhaps, when thc so
called leaders ol' that party will not bo able to
control it, and that thc ranks will make an
issue, at whatever disadvantage, whioh will open
up tho contest. But tho party has not come
to that condition ot' disorganization yet. It is
still susceptible of discipline. The prudonco of
it* ablor members still directs it, and those
members will find in Congress a better
for ' the display of power than upon the 'si
of Baltimore.
GOT?ON PLANTING IN THE SAIIA,
We have been favored, by a gentleman w
official position gives him an interest in
subject, with an article from thc Nassau 6
dian, upon the subject of cotton culture in
Bahamas, and wc make a few extracts fro
which may be of interest, to our readers. C
menting upon thc expenses of raising cotto
the Slate of Georgia, the estimate of which
peared in one of the newspapers of (hat Si
and particularly upon the heavy charge
posed by thc Government; and remark
also, upon the advantage resulting from
fact that in thone islands thc cotton is pc
niai, the writer makes thc following renn
upon thc area open to that product:
Thero are soveral inlands in tho Bahama
which thero is abundance of crown land avails
at tho upsot price of 10s. stg. an acre, for cot
e. g., Inagua, Mayaguana, Acklin's Island,
There aro other islands where private land ca
purchased or rented for similar purposes ant
easy terms, such as Crooked Island, Acklin's, I
Island, Watling's, St. Salvador, and Exuma,1
its numerous cays.
Since tho year I860 wages have risen for agn
tural laborers from $6 to $12 a month. These, I
ever, must deonne unlesB Borne profitable cult
tion liko that of cotton can be established in
agricultural laboring islands. Emigrants ace
panying any capitalist disposod to embark in
ton in the Bahamas on moderate terms would i
dor tho business surer.
With ordinary care and intelligence tho land i
endure permanently, as the oofton in this clin
is a perennial plant.
At St. Salvador tho insects ronder tho ootto
somewhat precarious btiH inonu, but not so at L>
Island, and other islands.
The profits on cotton must, of course, depi
on the markot price of cotton in Europe. li
supply exceeds the domand it will bo low-but i
very in America boing no longor a competitor,
chancos aro that, on an avorago, cotton will rai
higher than it did prior to tho goneral cmanci
tion in tho South. t
Thore ia no export duty on cotton grown in
BahamaB. An annual pruning of tho plant i
top-dressing are requisite to keop it in health, i
render it bushy and fruitful. Tho islands abo
named are, we believe, better adapted to cot
than the more westerly Islands of tho Baha
?roup, as they aro not subject to the same he,
OWS, which lower the temperature, and somet?a
cause the pod to drop in an immature state: 1
cotton has been profitably cultivated on New Pr
idence and Andros Island, and there is no roat
why every petty cultivator who grows an acre
corn and potatoes for his family Bhouldnote
ono acre, and if he has children, two, three, or ft
acres of cotton-fields to his annual crop, whi
would enable him to add immenBoly to the comf
of himself and his family, meet the too frequi
contingency of the failure of his corn cropB, a
add largely to the wealth of the Colony.
It ie said that a crop of oom and pumpkins ru
be taken off the same ground as the cotton. Tl
may suit thoso who have no ground or labor
spore. But this is not usually the case, and
aro inclined to think that the cleaner tho grou
around the cotton plant is kept the better. O
soil is not generally BO abundant or deep as to si
ply nourishment for two crops on thc same grout
To this article is appended the following si
tistics of experiments, uponga small scale, it
true, but which will present to the cnterprisi:
planter the reasons for bolieving that, with ;
enlarged experience, experiments could
much improved upon; and that, consider?
the greater security of investments under tl
protection of the English Government, the
islands present an inviting field for plantii
, enterprise.
21? G. C. Gamplejohn, Esq., Police Magistrale:
DEAS Sm :-In answer to your letter, requesidi

To G. C. CAMPLEJOIIN, Police Magistrate.
P. S.-By tho abovo it will bo aeon that at tho
present price a profit ?B undo of $35 por acre.
We would not bc understood to commend to
thc planters of our country, even under pre?
sent, discouragements, to abandon it? fortunes.
It is probable that, for a time at, least, wo may
be at the caprice of a dominant and hostile
party; but ive have still tho confidence that
out of present political fermentation, a govern?
ment will result in equal and just relations to
Uie different sections of this country, and firm
and strong enough to repress the aggressive
tendencies of any section. But, it must bc con?
fessed that, under proecnt circumstances, (lie
discouragements toenterprise in 'bia section ave
very great, and that thc opportunity presented
by these islands, protected by ri stable and fos?
tering Government, where thc culture of cotton
would not only not bc discouraged by a direct
tax of throe cents per pound, and (ho onerous
machinery of an internal revenue police, but is
actually encouraged by bounties exocediugly
.attractive. Tho authorities of this country,
perceptivo, as they ought t> be, of tho imper
tance of that great proluot, uni of its liability
to pasa from them by Uo superior induce raen te
of these and other favored lands, should con?
sider! whethfer? fr?jfn. jregard to,thlir^ ow? inter?
est if not from a sense of justice to ..those en?
gaged in planting.operations at the'South, a
more liberal policy should not bo practised. It
is loo much to expect that our planters will bo
retained, by. a senso of patriotism, in a country
of wh?se'G?ye?nment .they know nothing but
its exactions; while it is reasonably certain
that, upon^thesc favored islands, with their
knowledge of the business, their habits of in?
dustry, and within easy reach of commercial j
centres, they have certainly, at present, the
prospect of brighter fortunes.

The Laws of Health.
It is useless for Stato Legislatures to pass laws tor the
preservation of the public health, if the great lato of t*lf~
preservation, whioh depends for its enforcement upon

letter. 4
There ta scarcely an adult member of the community,
of either sex, in this country, who has not seen the testi?
mony in favor of HOSTETTER'3 STOMACH RITTERS,
furnished over their own signatures by persons of ac?
knowledged eminence in ocionce, literature, art, oom
uleree, and every department of business and professional
Ufo. These witnesses have declared in thc most explicit
terms tliat tho preparation is a safeguard ngainst epi
domlcs, a sovereign remedy for dyspepsia, a valuabio anta
bilious medicine, a promoter of appetite, a genial and ^
harmlos? stimulant, a good acclimating medicine, a
strengthener of tao nerves, a gonoral invigorant, a pro?
tection against tho deleterious effects of malaria and im?
pure water, and that it impiu'ta a degree of vigor and ac?
tivity to tho vital forces which is not communicated by
auy other of tho tonics and stomachics in azo. Under
those circumstances tho self-preservative law of natura
should teach ovory rational person who, either by reasoa
of inherent debility or in consequence of exposure to un?
wholesome influences, is in peril of losiug tho greatest of
