It ia said that English speculators arc buying up Tnillr on the Continont, reducing it, by a drying process, to powder, importing it to England and mixing it with water for use.

"A special dispatch to tho Now York World? says the Cleveland Ptoiadeater, ?iwhich has'hercto fore boen taking tho dispatches of tho New York Monopoly, to-day gavo in its udhcsiou to tho West? ern Associated Press." Tho Sultan of Turkey is building a hot-houso at an expenso of $100,000. Ho already has a house which'cost more than that, and which, as it contains fifty or sixty women or moro, we would have supposed it to be hot enough for all practical purposes. A bureau for the Mississippi Valley, through which all necessary information may be acquired irfrrogard to crops, manufacturing operations, ship ." menta and stocks, grains and flour at different points and periods, is to bo established ii St. "Louis. Tho Northampton (Mass.) Gazette says tobacco is a dull crop just now. Mo t of tho tobacco raisers in the vicinity have two Tears' crops on hand, with no more prospect of a ready 6ale for it now than there waa a year ago. At Hartford, Con? necticut, seed loaf finds few buyers at thirty cents. The journals of Namur state that the Marchion? ess DE MOLINS and tho Duchess BEL PTLAB OSOBIO DE xos Rio? have been each fined thirty francs, by the correctional tribunal of that town, and had their fowling-piecos confiscated, for shooting with? out a license in the Commune of Dave. A largo manufacturing compauy in Chicago em? ploys a young lady on ly thirteen yearB of ago as paymaster. She has paid out, since May last, a quartor of a million of dollars, keeping the time sheets, pay-roll, and a privato account-book with and .'or each of throe to four hundred men cm ployed. A Paris correspondent writes : "Cloaks aro to comeback" to fashion this winter. Paletots are to be utterly given up, and all malo bipods who re? spect themselves and tho mandates of tho Jockey Club ore to appear draped in the ample folds of something between a Spanish cape and tho o'd military cloak." A few days since, a mulatto woman and her babe wore shipped from Troy, Ohio, by an express com? pany, as ordinary freight. She was taken to tho oiSco cf the company, her weight averaged, a bill of lading made out, and tho usual label for pack? ages tied round her neck with a string. When the train started, sha was plac?d in charge of thc messenger, and arrived at her placo of destination iii safely. The Columbus (Ga.) Sun cf tho 29th says: "Wo are gratified to bo able to state that tho Catholic Fair has cleared between $3500 and 4000. This earn wi? be largely increasod by tho salo of tho remaining articles, many of which aro very v nia? ble, to be disposed of on Tuesday evening. Tho Fair has proved tho brilliant success which it rich? ly deserved. Wo believe this is the largest sum ever obtained in Columbus by a similar enterprise." From the Fernandina Courier we learn that tb? I lori da Annual Conference conveuod at Quincy on the ICth ult., Bishop MCTHEBE presiding.

W. H. MILBURN, the blind Episcopal clergy? man, entertains some hope of recovering his sight Eminent oculists hare infame J him that so many are the new facilities for examining the eye, that, in their opinion, a double operation upon the right eye would enable him not only to distinguish ob? jects, but, perhaps, read coarse typo. Rev. Mr. M. intends going to Europo in the spring, to consult an oculist at Berlin, whoso reputation, in that specialty, is world-wide. News from Saig?n (Lidia) to the end of October, reports great damage to tho rice fields, caused by elephants which appeared in largo numbers in thc environs of Baria. Already, during tho month of September, they had obstructed the road from Bien-Phuoc during several hours. Ouo of tho bridgcB between Baria aud Cau-thi-way gavo way under one of these animals, which had not for a long time been soen in such numbers in this dis? trict. It is a nice thing to go to war, bo victorious, aud bring your enemy to terms by assossing upon him all the expenses, and a margin to sparo. Tho lato Prussian campaign again st Austria cost $42,000,000, which the Emperor has levied upon his enemies thus : Austria, $28,000,000 ; Bavaria, $12,000,000 ; Saxony, $7,000,000; Wurtomberg, $3,200,000; Baden, $2,400,000; Frankfort, $2,400,000; Hesse Darmstadt, $1,200,000. Total, $5G,200,000. Being the whole sum, and a round $14,000.000 of profit beside. Not a bad summer's work. The Knoxville Whig, of the 19th ult., says: "Wc are authorized to say that, aftor Monday next, a regular train wfll run to and from Clinton, on thc Knoxville and lieu tucky Railroad, with a passen? ger car attached, for tho accommodation of travel? lers and freight. This is tho opening up of a new and great channel of trade and travel, which will not again be checked until wo aro connected with Louisville and Cincinnati, and this will be at no distant day. In two years more we shall he in connection with South and North Carolina, start? ing out from.Morristown." A colony of freedmen, consic':ng of threo hun? dred heads of families, comprising about two thousand men, women and children, is to bo estab? lished weBt of Now Smyrna, thirty miles south of Fernandina. They come from South Carolina, and are in charge of Genoral ELV. The Govern? ment gives them one month's subsistenco and transportation, and they supply themselves with two. The country which they arc to occupy is well adapted to cultivation, hus a flue range for cattle, and abounds in fish, oysters and game. Colonel SPBAOUS, commanding the District, has guaranteed military protection, and with this military super? vision, toge.hor with well directed industry, their condition must be greatly improved." They will leave Charleston, S. C., next mouth in steamers for New Smyrna. The exportation of sugar from Puerto Rico dur? ing tho past yoar ha9 amounted to 123.834,710 pounds, the value of which is calculated at four and a half millions of dollars. Coffee to the value of two millions of dollara, and cotton to half a mil? lion, also swell tho total sum of thc exports which altogether amount to nearly nine millions. The far greater portion of the trade has been with thc United States, for over ninety-four million pounds of sugar weut there, whilst to thc next best cus? tomer, England, only twenty-three million pounds were sent. It is remarkable that vary little coffee found its way to American markets, only eigkty oue-thousand pounds ; whilst to England threo million pounds, to Spain four million, to Cuba ono and a half million, and to Italy nearly two aud a half million pounds were consigned. The St. Louis Deinocrat publishes some statis? tics of the tobacco^rop of tho present season. In Missouri it ia reported at from 12.000 to 15,000 hogsheads. Thia is fax belpwtan average crop, but it ie said that the quality of 'thc tobacco is unusu- I 00 aQy good. In 'Virginia the crop has fallen off one- eil third-it is reported at 70,000,000 pounds-hut is ca "the best ovor mndo as respects quality."

Tm: CitAisLKSTox OAM.v NEWS bids ?ls readers this morning ti happy New Year, and dors so iu a new dress. Heretofore we ap? peared in royal quarto, now in imperial folio. Upon thc first cnlargcmcnt'of Tut: NEWS WC determined upon au eight-page shed, being thc form most generally in use in all large cities, both in Europe and on this Continent. That form oilers many nd va ul ages over the four sheet [Kiper, and an experience of years has pronounced in ?ts favor. Our opinion on this subject has uot changed: hut thc reading public of this city, always having been accus? tomed to four-pagesheets,seemed unwilling lo surrender their preference for thc old custom. Wc thus ? ad continual solicitations for such a change from our patrons. Thc advertisers all wished to have their announcements on thc outside half of the paper. None wanted to be "stuck away** on thc inside. To obviate this difficulty wc have at lust yielded to a general desire of our friends and have entered TUB NEWS on a new four-page race, for which wc would bespeak thc same regard and pa? tronage, our old octavo friend so largely en? joyed. Thc Old ?'NEWS," in retiring (with ils venerable friend, 1 SOO), tenders its most polite and heartfelt acknowledgments to a very large circle of readers, friends and well-wishers, and hoping thal it has not been herc in vain, respectfully solicits their continued counte? nance for tts new-born bigger brother-the large four-page sheet, commencing with this, the first day of thc year 1807. NEW YEAR. Another grain of sand has f?llen from the hour-glass. Another station on the highway of life has been reached by thc weary pilgrim. An? other unit of life is gone, and death is by one year nearer to al! of us. It is a time for thought for solemn reflection. Have wc progressed during the past, three hundred and sixty-five days? Arc we wiser or better! Has the growth of years brought soothing to the troubled spirit '.' Have wc learned to calm our passions, and to open our hearts and hands to thc prompt ings of heaven-born charity ? These aro meditations .ind interrogatories naturally suggested by the season, and happy those of our readers whose conscience will answer them in thc affirmative. How is it with our City ? How with our State? Again the cry is: "Watchman, what of thc night ? Is it long yet to thc morning's golden dawn ?" Where are wc now ? Have wc progressed since last wc heard thc annuiu* watchman's cry ? Wc then were under mili*, tary rule. Our rulers since have become civil,! but still wc enjoy a military guardianship. Our j representatives were knocking al thc door of Congress then ; wc now have concluded to j remain quietly and peaceably at home, awaiting \ levclopmcnts. Thc future then was dark and j ?loomy; it is cloudy still, but he of hopeful i emper may already sec the dawu of a brighter ! lay. The National Executive has "remained I ;ruc to thc Soutli (/'. c. true to thc fundamental j aw of thc land), and now another buckler will >e held up for our defence in thc declarations )f the highest judicial tribunal in thc couutry. IVe may reasonably, therefore, hope that the lay ol' deliverance is nearer, by twelve months o-day, than it was January I, lSGU. We have nothing to boast of, and cant!ot latter ourselves with any great degree of >rosperity. Thc crops were short ; thc people ire poor-many of them suffering for thc iccessartes of life. Our debts arc great-oiir .csourccs few, aud taxes heavy, almost be? yond endurance. Wc wish we could give a irightcr coloring to thc picture, but thc trutli s not always, indeed not generali}', pleasant. Ye would tell our people he patient-trust., md hope, and all will come right. We have, unquestionably, much also to be hankful for, and at a solemn season like thc >rcscnt it hecomcth all of us to humble cur? sives before thc great Searcher of hearts, and .eturn thanks to thc Giver of all good for His ;racc and manifold mercies toward us. A happy New Year wc wish to all our rend? es ; and may it be our privilege to address hem many times more, and theirs lo read, for ong years to come, our annual lucubra!ious.
