Senatorial Proceedings.
WASHINGTON, April 16.-The Sanato to-day
adopted a resolution postponing tho adjournment
to Thursday afternoon.
During tho incidental debate Mr. Chandler
charged Mr. Fesscnden with haring said that the
latter would confirm Copperheads and Reoels. Mr.
Fessesden repudiated thin with all the scorn and
contempt that he felt, and advised Mr. Chandler
hereafter to stick to' the truth. Mr. Chandler re?
iterated his charge,-and Mr. Fessenden again de?
nied it, and appealed to the record in support of
his innocence in that respect. .
Mr. Chandler said that he could not consult the
record, for what Mr. Fessendensaid took place in
secret session.
Mr. Fessendeu made a soeoch, holding that the
Senate was bound to stay here until all the vacan?
cies were filled, and mentioned the fact that, of
four to live hundred vacancies, only fifty remained
unfilled. This fact showed the contrary to what
had been asserted. The President was doing all
he could to supply vacancies.
Mr. Davis said that the President was on titled
to praise, and insisted that he had the right to fill
vacancies with hi ; political friends.
Mr. Yates claimed that, as the Radicals had
triumphed in the country, they had a right to all
the offices. Subsequently, in executive sessiou,
the Senate rejected 12 Presidential nominations,

Signs of the Times.
The New York Journal of Commerce has thc fol
? lowing despairing article with reference to tho
financial and business future of the country. The
day of reckoning for cur political sins and follies,
under Radical recklessness and misrule, is surely
coming :
"The merry laugh which orne greeted every allu?
sion to possib'.o trouble is now heard less frequent?
ly in the avenues of trade. The financial novices
who ridiculed the lessons of experience, and
- taught that the heavier tho national debt tho
greater blessings, are less glib in their jibes to tho
veterans of the Exchange, and advocate their
crude themes with less assurance than when the
inflation was in progress on the other side of the
summit. * * * * *
The mnnuficturing districts havo felt a sudden
jar in their machinery, and are surprised that
there should be any check to their prosperity,
while under tho protection of the most favorable
legislation. Tho smaller industries all over tho
land have aire ady begun to sutler. Enterprise has
lost its eagerness, and adv?nture folds its wings.
There is unusual restlessness everywhere. The
consumers al. over the land buy sparingly, and
seem to have but little money. What has become
of the enormous receipts which filled everybody's
purse who had anything to sell, until the high
prices oeemed a blessing instead of a curso ? Is
the money spent or hoarded V It does not circu?
late as it did, and the rolls of greenbacks are not
as numerous or as plentiful as they were a year
ago. Has anybody found out that high prices
being an oflsefc in great expenses, and that, in
spite of high wages, there is less iu tho working
men's purse* than when he seemed to be toiling for
a pittance ?
What is tho impending danger? Simply the re?
action after tho debauch. When it comes, a reck?
oning will be the first in order. Those who have
betrayed thou- trust, using funds which wero not
their own, in tho wild chase for sudden wealth,
will be caught as in a trap and found wanting.
There will bo a legion of defaulters. Those who
have carried a multitude of schemes in their hands
will come to the reckoning with great disadvan?
tage, and will wonder, amid the genoral shrinkago,
what has become of the riches of which they
counted. Debts will be tangible, fixed facts; anil
their uncomfortable array will present a ghastly
spectacle against the vanishing assets which will
not wipe them out. A day of reckoning and set?
tlement will bo a solemn time for all, and the
mocking Up will forget to curl when this searching
test reveals (ho ashes of what seemed the ripened
fruits of toil aud providence.
The adjournment of Congress, and a cessation
of angry sectional discussions, may postpone the
day of reckoning for a little while; but it must
come at last, and the hosts of shams and delu?
sions now HO fondly cherished, will shrivel and
fade in its revealing light."
Six hundred workmen aro employed during the
day, and three hundred all night long, in remov?
ing the hill, between the new Place du Koi dc
Rome and Passy. This hill is of atone ; it is 10(

Five hun di-ed powder mines are fired ever-,

" DISCIPLINE."
We have no taste for the horrible, and have
therefore generally refused to regale our readers
with tho many highly wrought and revolting
stories we find almost every day iu our exchanges
about whipping children to death ard other kin?
dred atrocities. In the Northern and Northwest
ern States there appears to be a mania at present,
making such occurrences alarmingly frequent,
One of the most recent instances of the kind comes
from Chicago, chronicling the drowning of one
child and an attempt at murdering another by a
woman of that city. The motive was the de9iro to
revenge horsolf upon tho parents of the children,
because they had refused to recognizo her on ac?
count of her abandoned practices. The Eev. JOEL
LTNDSLET'S pious barbarity is still fresh in every
one's memory. Killing a little boy four years old,
because ho would not say his prayers, is an exem?
plification of Christian stoicism, that was never
equalled even by a BRUTUS. SO again a case of
long-continued systematic cruelty is related as
having been practised in Hackensack, upon an
orphan girl by her employers ; and another in In?
diana, where an apprentice boy was tortured by
burning, beating, hanging and suffocation, till
death brought relief to the miserable creature. We
have read also, within the past few months, of
several cases of undue ' discipline" upon girls in
the common schools of Massachusetts-and this
not unfrequently hy female teachers, who, upon
reference of the cases to tho Board, were exonera?
ted from all blame. But wc delight not in such re?
volting scenes or incidents, and have generally
saved our readers from the painful perusal of such
brutalities.
But it may not bo unprofitable to inquire into
the causes of this fearful epidemic, for it fairly
threatens to assume that form. Here we find a most
disgraceful plague spot giving tho lie to all our
boasted civilization; all our vaunted progress in an
enlightened Christianity. The nativo dopravity of
the human heart of course will be called upon to
father the whole enormity. It is such a convenient
phrase; os, indeed, is all the catalogue of social
and religious cant, hypocritically saying something
yet meaning nothing. Tho stern Puritan tenets
carried out to their logical conclusions must cor
t airily be held responsible for very much of this
inhumanity. The war and the evil passions en
gendered by what was euphuiBtically termed its
:tvigorous prosecution," familiarized many persons
to hear, read, see, aud even engage in much which
in other days they would have shrunk from in
horror. The law of compensation asserts itself
here as it has so often dj^?-bcf?M. II?B?S*
PJ^ES.iamffi?rry painted as a bloodthirsty demon
j" was in tho highest degree sentimental; and could
shed tears at the imaginary woes of the heroine
of a novel. ROUSSEAU, the princo of sentiment, is
reported to have been heartless, and even cruel
BEBNARDIN DE ST. PIERRE, the author of Faul and
Virginia, who, like Mrs. WrrrrrEBLY, was all
soul, is described as being of a character far from
loveable. The first NAPOLEON speaks thus of
him. There i? therefore, nothing new, however
incongruous it may seem at first sight, in the
circumstance that a man may weep over a poor
downtrodden slave, suffering all kinds of imagi?
nary torture two thousand milos away, and yet De
deaf to tho piteous cries of the starving wretches
around him. Thus wo soe Mr. BEBOH, no doubt
himself a most excellent gentleman, working night
and day to ameliorate the condition of the rab?
bits Mr. BARNUM throws daily into the cage of his
Boa constrictor ; while not one hundred and fifty
yards from the Museum, Mr. BEBOH and all his
benevolent coadjutors could find abundance of
scope for their most untiring energies, among
then: own kind. How eau they expect to effect a
general reform in the treatment of dumb animals,
if they do" not first ensuro justice and equity to
man ? BURNS' lines are brought to mind : ' Man's
inhumanity to man makes countless thousands
mourn."
Tho cold-blooded statistician, rinding these
traits part of the average humm character, makes
his calculations, and coolly tells ns in Prussia so
and so many die annually of poison, so many are
murdered; so many commit suicide, etc., etc., as
though it was a law of necessity. We rosent such
soulless teaching, but upon refection are compell?
ed to admit its g oner al accuracy. Why it is that
one form of crime marks one era, and another the
next, and so oh, and why they appear to succeed
each other in periodical regularity, we are unable
to say. Thus wevfind suicide prevailing at ene
time, Chen poisoning, then violent murder, then
arson perhaps, and so on. Just now, as we have
seen above, child murder seems to be the prevail?
ing form of the disease on this sido of the Atlantic.
Why 'Harper's Weekly has not yet embellished
its pages with cartoons suggested by those highly
suggestive occurrences, is to us inexplicable. Are
the victims, perhaps, of the wrong color, homopho?
bia being one of the concomitant diseases at pre?
sent prevalent in those hyper bor -?an latitudes ? Wc
p^use. for a reply.
Cotton During thc Lat ?> War.
The attraction of high prices induced attempts
at cotton culture in most quarters: of tho world
that gave the least promise of success. Many of
these efforts, backed up as they were by iVttish cap?
ital, have led not only to an increased production
but to great improvements in the preparation of
the staple. These advances in getting up tho ar?
ticle for market has raised up a moro formidable
competition than the South has ever before expe?
rienced, and sho may expect that tho effect of this
competition will be to bring dora the price of cot?
ton to a low figure, but with the skill, intelligence
and superior capacity of the planting population of
this section, united to tho great advantages bo
stowed by nature for tho growth of this valuabl
commodity, we have no foar but that ultimately
tho South will como out triumphant. We givo be?
low an extract from an English paper giving some
valuable information in reference to tho growth of
cotton in that part of the world:
COTTON SUPPL! ASSOCIATION.
At the usual meeting of the Executive Commit?
tee, held in Manchester on Tuesday, 29th March,
1867, a number of reports and papers were pre?
sented.
INDIA.
A letter was read from tho acting cotton com?
missioner, Dharwar, reporting that thoro will bo
in Bombay not only a large, bul a very superior
crop this year. He stales that he has been nearly
all over Hie cotton districts, aDd that tho staplo is a
very great improvement both in quantity and
quality as compared with last year's crop. Now
that cotton speculation has decreased, and a stea?
dier business has commenced, is the time to push
on improvements in cultivation, as well as to intro?
duce superior varieties. Cotton improvemont
never received more attontiou in tho Bombay
presidency than it is now doing. One notable
mstanco of turning out a comparatively wortl Jess
cotton, and introducing a better description
on a wholesale scale, has .. been ex?
hibited in the Ehandeish Zilla, aud other
improvements are very largely- but quietly hoing
effected in most other districts. Tho ofiicial re?
port on tho Bombay cotton crop will shortly be
forwarded. A cattle power, not for horses or
pomes, but for slow working bullocks and buf
taloes, animals that will not do at the most moro
than two miles an hour, is much needed. Such a
"power," constructed from special representations
is now on its way out, and if it succeeds it wd
prove of great benefit. A lotter was received from
the houorary agents of thc association, Bombay,
requesting fm thor supplies of seed, and onclosiii?
reports on the cultivation of Peruvian cotton in
ludia. The experiments in Dharwar appear to
have been ex-eedingly satisfactory. This descrip?
tion of cotton has only to bo sown every fourth
-jear, and the cost of cultivation is consequently
much diminished, artificial watering is not neces?
sary, and it succeeds in soil too poor and stonv for
any other kind, and in which thc regular annual
crops do not give profitable returns.
The only difliculty apprehended in thc introduc?
tion of Peruvian cotton over a large area is the
chango it would necessitate in tho method ot' cul?
tivation which prevails among thu ryots, who ure
accustomed to treat cotton us an annual. Further
supplies of Peruvian seed are requested, which,
however, it is feared eau scarcely roach thc up?
country districts early enough for tho next solving
season. A parcel was received containing voriou *
samples of cotton grow n from Dharwar Now Or?
leans seed in the EuiUtdghee Zillah, Bombay Presi?
dency, iu the Khargono district of Centra,! India,
in the territory of his Highness Maharajah liolkar,
and in the Dholporo district of tho same terri?
tory, together with samples grown from
Egyptian seed in the Ah meda had collecto
rat?. The yield of a beegull of laud at
Khargono planted with indigenous cotton,
was 120 lbagaiust 288 lbs. from New Orleans seed,
while the profit to the farmer iu the former ease
was only two rupees tlirco annas and ten pies,
against fifteen rupees four annus and six pies, thc
profit from New Orleans seed. The experiment is
therefore considered to be highly important. Let?
ters were received from tho cotton commissioner,
central provinces and tho berars, containing re?
turns of the quantity of cotton received ?it and
forwarded from the cotton yards at tho stations
of the Great Indian Peninsular Railway during
the present season. Haring but a single line,
the cotton, which pours iu nil at one time,
must necessarily get blocked; oue means ol
Ercventing this and of easing the trnftic would bc
y pressing the colton; but until European houses
become established up-country, there is not much
chance of any great quantity of cotton being full
pressed in thc interior. A beginning has been
made, and a great improvement is expected next
season. Already four European agents have set?
tled ut the principal cotton marts, and are doing a
good commission business, and thc number will,
doubtless, soon bo doubled. Tho opiuion is
strongly expressed, that, to secure good and cheap
cotton ?t Manchester, it is necessary thut mer?
chants should settlo up-country near the great
markets, and buy and press there. The Jubbul
riore exhibition was a success; there was a very
good show of cotton, and also of cotton machinery,
considering thc distances and difficulties ot trans?
port.
Letter from Walterboro'.
"W ALTERBOB o', April 13.
EDITOB DAILY NEWS : Tho Court of Common
Pleas for Colloton District, Judge MOSES presiding,
closed its regular spring session this afternoon.
As a mere "looker-on," I have thought to preparo
a plain, succinct account of its proceedings for
your columns.
Judge MOSES has fully sustained the expectations
of his friends in bringing to his high position that
dignity and ability which is the pride of our State
judiciary, and that courtesy which tho true gentle?
man never forgets.
His charge, upon the opening of the Court, was
sensible and appropriate; and in referring to the
condition of the country and the course all sound
policy enjoined upon us to pursue, he arose to oc?
casional fliphts of eloquence which will long be
remembered by those who listened to his words.
He said there is a total revulsion in our social con?
dition. The patricians of yesterday, we are the
plebians of to-day; and the fortunes which our
fathers toiled so long.to build, demolished by tho
desolating touch of war, must be remodelled and
reconstructed. The powerfal auxiliara of the
rising generation are no more, and their future
depends upon the intrinsic worth of their own
heads and their own hearts. In some respects it
may be a benetit, for reverses teach humility, and
a due sense of human weakness; and if every one
is tho architect of his own fortune, wo may see a
race of builders appearing who will be an honor to
themselv .j and thoii* country. To this sourcoho
looked with pride to seo restored the constitutional
hopes of America.
In relation to the freedmen and our obligations
to them, his language waB lucid and effective.
They are ignorant; they know nothing of the im?
munities and duties of citizenship, and vet,
through the machinations of those who under?
stand them least, those rights have been conferred,
and these duties enjoined. It is a part of policy
to accept in good faith tho condition of things. Wo
should not shrink, by supine passivity, the re
sponsibitics of the hour. It is big with the bur?
then of destiny.
There are those who tell us that whether we act
or not, we are drifting to the same in?vitable fate;
that wo have not an alternative, but are drifting,
in swift eddies, to the dark and ruthless whirlpool;
that, resisted or unresisted, a vindictive fate is
hurrying us to Charybdis. From such opinions
his Honor dissented." He is not of those who
tum pale at tho sight of new difficulties, and
heartsick upon discovering that the material out
of which we must rebuild is unpromising. It is
the surest sign of excellence when the immortal
pvramids of national famo are erected by a people
bereft of power, amid the attacks and opposition
of unscrupulous and influential foes-erected, too,
of wreck-piecos of a gigantic delusion. We must
take a stand and countervail the evil, while we
advance the good incident to our Government
and our country. What then is our duty ? We
must control the negro vote. He is incapable to
exercise Iiis right of suffrage, and whether all be
be erased from this premature stroke of power,
will be for our governance. How vitally impor?
tant then that we direct the current of events
which we arc powerless to stem 1 Already emisa?
rios, alike enemies io the black race and to hu?
manity, aro in our midst, moulding to their pur
EoseB the opinions and predelictions of the negro,
f this state of things ?B to proceed, there can be
but little hopo for tho country. But in the great
hearts of her sons there is hope. We must learn
to trust ourselves, to confide in no quasi friends,
and above oil to control the ballot box and guard
the agricultural interests of the country.
His Honor, after referring to the industrial status
of the country, proceeded to the investigation of
tho causes upon the criminal docket which was
groatly facilitated by the energy, urbanity and de?
cided ability of the Solicitor, Mr. YoumauB. It is
difficult to determine in which branch of his busi?
ness he i * most officient, whother in the examina?
tion of witnesses or in his pleadings. His reason?
ing is remarkably sound and olear ; he presents
truth with irresistible force, and seems , to have
studied and learned the law as a science.
The number of criminal causes tried at this term
will at first strike the mind as being very large,
but when we consider tho extent of country em?
braced in this district, the distance from this
point and from each other, where these crimes
wero committed-two "of them having originated
on tho Combahce, one near Bontowle's, one at
Bidgeville, ono above Georgo's Station, and one
near the liarnwoll line in this Parish, and one
within twenty miles of this place. When we re?
member that many of these, under the old system,
would have boen settled between the owners of the
negroes and the parties aggrieved, or been tried
by a magistrate and freeholders in the neighbor?
hood where the offence was committed, and possi?
bly never heard of except in the immediate vicini?
ty'; that some of these crimes take date in the
past summer ; theso, coupled with the new con?
dition of tho negroes, may, and I think do, furnish
a rifttiefcctorr-solution or the matter." I do not
think it can bo truly said that crime is very largely
increased in this District.
Among the causes tried was one for murder, one
for highway robbery, threo for burglary, in two of
which wero two persons concerned, and one for
horse stealing, tried under the oct of 1865-all were
convicted. Monday Lososne, charged with mur?
der was defended by Hon. W. F. Colcock and Mr.
Wm. Godfrey. The whole trial was conducted
with great care ; the jury selected from among tho
most intelligent gentlemen of the paunch ana the
testimony, which was principally given by colored
persons, was confined to the strictest rulos. It is
due to the witnesses to say, their testimony was
given with so much truthfulness and clearness
that it was impossible for the jury to avoid convic?
tion. Thc defendant himself, under the new law,
was put upon the stand and told his own story.
The Solicitor, at the suggestion of His Honor the
Judge, forbore a cross examination of him. It is
needless to say that each and every cause tried was
equally well defended, and that tho prisoners had
tho sympathies of thc juries and of the spectators.
I am informed that in several coses tho criminals
have boon recommended by tho jury to executive
clemency. Four white persons were convicted of
cow-stealing.
Saturday, at 12 o'clock, having been appointed
for pronouncing sentences upon the criminals, the
Court House was crowded with whito and colored
persons. I havo been present on many such oc
casious, but never, in my whole lifo, havo I hoard
so mucli eloquouce embodied in an exhortation to
criminals, nor have I ever seon so much feeling
exhibited, both by the Judgo and the audience, as
on that occaBiou. I remember Mr. Wirts' story
of thc "'Llind Preacher," and I can find nothing
pise in the storehouse of roy memory to which I
can compare this most excellent and most appro?
priate address. I could have wished that every
body in this District could have heard it-especial?
ly tho colored people.
Early in tho term the Grand Jury made a pre?
sentment upon tho condition of the country, in re?
lation to thu matters of general indebtedness and
general sacing, which, I understand, has been or?
dered to be published in some newspaper.
In tho matter of debts, very little was dono be?
yond thc Process Docket, which seemed to stick to
his Honor almost to tho moment of adjournment.
An extra term of tho Court has been ordered for
trial of cases of Tort only, to be held on tho third
Monday in May next, lt is proper that I should
add. in making up this report of the chargo of
Judge Moses, that \that hos been written is from
memory, and after a lapse of several days. B.
TUE LOCAL EEPOBTEB.-At a printors'festival,
held not long since in Columbus, Ohio, Mr. W. H.
BUSLEY, of tho Slate Journal, in responding to the
toast of the "Local Reporter," made a very charac?
teristic speech. It is so much to the point that we
quote some extracts :
"Some years ago, when it was proposed that I
become a local editor, I asked a friend, an old
newspapor man. tho simple question: What are tho
duties of a local editor ? Ho answered bluntly, I
cannot tell you. A local editor is always badly
scattered. Ho is the bushwhacker of a newspaper
establishment. Ho works on the high-pressure
principle, always ready to blow up or to be blowcd
np, but bis position ?B not definable. He docs a
little of everything. The question was repeated in
earnest, but always caroo tho same answer. 1
thought tho man unkind, and was so unfavorablv
impressed with the duties of a local editor that I
dodged them, and commenced my newspaper
career in another department.
".Since that I havo been compelled to admit that
tho man was right. Experience has taught me
that thc duties of a local reporter are learned and
aot taught. His department is, in truth, the
s ;> mn i sh hue of tho establishment. It is his duty
to meei face to fa o with the world about him.
His battles are on tho guerrilla plan, but must be
fought with broken lines, aud so sk?lfully manag?
ed as never to bring into action tho heavy forcee
of tho reserve. A reporter of local events becomes
necessarily a peculiar person. He seems to the
world a very uicrconary individual, ne goes
to see a man who has* broken his leg, not tc
sympathize, but to question him. Ho nina tc
a lire, not to give assistance, but to gel par?
ticulars. Ho wishes no man harm, but when
banu befalls, hu calls it good luck. Ho has an
item on the brain. It is bis business to ask ques?
tions, his duty to answer none. A "burglary'
with him is simply business, something horrible,
a sensation. His receiving capacity is very great.
In one hour ho will have been in the dark hell
fi ile to look upon a murder, will have joined thc
bright circle of a Christian festival, have listo?ed
to thc eloquent words from a pulpit, have hoare
the sweetest strains from au opera, have glauccd
at thc best scenes ol'a drama, have possessed him?
self of the important news ot tho capital, and,
having greeted and questioned ono hundred
people, be in Ids seat teluna for the reader a dozen
different stories iii as inanv minutes.
".Seriously, the local editor is often misunder?
stood. He is no less a gentleman than others ol
mankind. There is as little of the mercenary
about him as any other mau of business. He can?
not have the elab?rale politeness of tho man ol
leisure, and hence is often misunderstood. Thc
lady from whom ho hurries away, with a hal!
framed apology, to shake hands with a rough look?
ing mon, pronounces hun a boar. Instinct tsachot
thu local that thc rough man bas an item, and thc
lady would excuse bis impoliteness did slio knovi
that tho stirring romance of the next dav cami
from the rough inuividual who supplanted her ir
thc locals attentions. Tho aristocrat thinks the
local a fool when he turnsfiom him to shake hanci
with a laborer, the poor man that ho is a awol
when h? meets lum arm in arm with tho rich man!
On every hand ho is liable to be misunderstood!
His motives aro questioned, himself accused. Bul
be bas friends that rightly understand him, wi?
know that a local editor is often aman with a warn:
heart."

I have always recommended the Faber Polygrai
Lead Pencils as the only pencils fitted for both or uame
tal and mathematical drawing; but after a thorouf
trial of the American Polygrade Lead Pencils, ma
ufaclured by tho American Lead Pencil Company, NE
York, I find them superior to any pencil in uso, even
the Faber or thc old English Cumberland Lead Pene
being a superior pencil for sketching, ornamental ai
mechanical drawing, and all the ordinary uses of a lei
pencil.
These pencils are very finely graded and have a ve
smooth lead; even the softest pencils hold the point we
they aro all that can bo desired in a pencil It gives r
great pleasure to bc able to assure Americans that th
