Advices from the maritime provinces, however, do not wholly snatsia this broad statement Two newspapers ia Halifax, it would seem, appeared ia mourn? ing, the national societies, Scotch and Eng? lish, refused to laka part in the procession, flags were shown at half-mast, and other signs of dissatisfaction ware apparent The pleasantest feature of the celebration of fha Fourth of July in Philadelphia waa the banquet given by Mr. CHILDS to those em? ployed by him in the new Ledger building. Editors, reporters, compositors, clerks, press? men, feeders, carriers and newsboys were all generously provided for. Five tables, accom? modating fir? hundred persons, were set in the press .room, and over a hundred newsboys were dined fit the gallery. Several speeches were made by those who are among the veterans in the Ledger establishment. it is OM of th? curious facts connected with the great exposition, that so impressed are the English employers with the superiority of the products of the French machine shops, that they are devising cheap excursions for their work? men, in order to give them the opportunity to take advantage of French skill. Engines, loco? motives,, and other machinery, have been im? ported considerably from France of late, and at last Jahn Boll is waking up to his own defi? ciency. v Th? workmen employed ot a marl pit Hanley, England, recently came upon an enormous fossil calamite seven feet in diameter and of at present unascertained height The outer rind, of the the thickness of about a quarter of an inch, has been compl?ter/ carbonized, while the whole of th? hollow portion of the reed is compactly filled with stone abounding with impressions of calamite?, ferns, and other vegetable exuviae of th? carboniferous period.

CURRENT TOPICS. Ls Tr EB. WRITERS from England con their assertions of Queen VICTORIA'S gre unpopularity. The Court and the shopke< both dislike ber keeping up mourning; former because there are no gaieties ? palace, and the latter beoause their trade fers. The newspapers also denounce ber of sending royal visitors to the hotels, paying their bills, instead of enterte: them at the palace. Slanders are in circu? that she is in love with a servant named BROWN, because he looks very much lik< late busband. A correspondent of the York World says on this bead: "She ba faults; she is now and then hasty in her ten she is excessively economical, and I am a she drinks a far greater quantity of wine most ladies are able to take at a sitting; I impugn her character as a virtuous womat great perversion of truth, which is the mo be reprehended since it is directed agaii lady placed in a position from which she ce stoop to punish her calumniators. As I tioned the Queen's well-known weaknes one more glass of wine, I may as well how she acquired it The Prince Consort a gourmand, and the Queen, to discoure much as possible his propensity for a fa dinner, always dined with the royal childr mid-day. At the regular late dinner she sat at the table fur the sake of etiquette, as she scarcely ate anything, she unconsch took wine in about the same quantity as il were partaking of the meal. Thus the 1 grew upon her, and has never left her." BREVET MAJOR-GENERAL N. M. SCOTT sistant Commissioner for South Carolina submitted to General HOW LAND a report ol operations of the Bureau in that State foi month of If ay ; from which it appears generally the condition of the freedmen if proving, and the feeling of the white citi toward them becoming more favorable, thc provement resulting from the necessity of cognising the political and civil rights of freed people, and the dependence which > upon their labor. The sub-Assistant ( missioner in charge of the sub-distric Charleston reports that no complainte reference to the indisposition of the freed to work were made during the month. G ral complaints have been made in referent work being neglected in consequence of banda going off to hear speeches, by a pe: who issues what the freedmen call orders them to attend the meetings ; threatening t with furies if they do not attend ; telling t that no charge can be made against them leaving the crop, etc. This has tended te dace some disorder. In this district . siderable destitution yet exists, and large i plies will be needed to prevent ex tr suffering. In other districts much destitu and suffering is reported. W HETHER THE Canadians are susceptibl the pleasures of being tickled with a st: time will show. At present they are all i t witterat ion of delight at their establishn aa a "Dominion" instead of a "Province," v a "Viceroy" instead of a "Governor," and administration of "Knights" and "Compani of the Bath" in place of the plebeian "Hon ables" who have heretofore guided th colonial fortunes.

However, luckily it's her own affair. If APPEARS THAT the good people of 1 Petersburg were rather loth to see th? sovereign depart from their capital withe being accompanied, as he has always been 1 the past sight or ten years, by an immense d called "Mylord." This dog was one of the Ii perial suits last year, when the Czar came Nice to ase bia son di?, and was mach talked for bia attachment to bis master, whom 1 never left a moment, sleeping always on a n by his bedside. Only a few days after tl Czar's departure Mylord waa taken ill ai died, the news was telegraphed to Paris, bi was not iommunicated to the Czar. The youl Grand Dukes concluded that it was best tb he should not be told of it as they were sui it would greatly mar the pleasure of the visi The death of a dog is regarded as a bad ome in B?sala, and the attempt on the life of tl Emperor will confirm the superstition. tax MEXICAN GOVERSMENT begins its era < psace with unquestionable resolution. A voile of musk eta makes short work of its enemiei SANTA ANNA was shot before he had scarce! time to issue a proclamation, and upon th ground, probably correct that he intended counter-revolution. It is very questionabl whether his death was necessary to the safet of the Republic. He was an old man-nearl 70 years-had long oeaaed to be feared by an, party, and it is still very doubtful whether hi departure for Mexico was not altogether th result of a foul conspiracy against the old man' property. The Republicana have begun with out showing mercy. It remains to be seei whether this severity is the evidence of strengt! or weakness. . '? Ns wa PAPER editora are well paid in Paris. I is affirmed in the journals that M. CLEMEN DUVERNOIS, who was recently one of thi writers of the Liberte, and who ia about to be come editor of the Epoque, is to receive a salarj of $4000 a year and an "indemnity on entering on bia duties" of $20,000. A curriage is moreover, to be provided for him. On som? of the journals the remuneration is even highei than this; and it is to be remembered that s Paris editor does nothing like the amount ol work that is expected in London. In fact, thc Parisian passes the greater part of his time in smoking segara and in talking; and if he knocks off an article or two a week he thinks himself wonderfully industrious. Sometimes he leta weeks pass without writing a line. A CORRESPONDENT OF the Austin Reveille writes from Nevada : " The country rock of the Hot Creek district is composed of porphy? ry, slate and granite, with an overlying crys? talline limestone and carbonato of lime. The mountains are steep and rugged, and generally densely wooded. Both hot and cold springs abound, which would afford a good supply of water for mill purposes. The ledges ran north and south and pitch east and west, with few exceptions. The ores are gene? rally rich in silver and of simple combination; many of them are peculiarly beautiful, showing the varioua tinta of blue, green and yellow, ex? quisitely variegated. Rich purple and green? ish horn-silver is very common, and there is plenty of the new mineral called stetefeldite." STATISTICIANS have calculated that if the pop? ulation of thc world amounts to between 1,200, 000,000 and 1,300,000,000 persons, the number of deaths in a year would be 32,000,000. As? suming the correctness of this calculation, the deaths each day would be nearly 88,000, 3600 per hour, 60 per minute, and thus every second would carry into eternity one human life from one part of the world or another. But repro? duction asserts its superior power; for, on cal? culating the probable annual births on the globe, the result shows that whereas GO persons die per minute, 70 children are born, and thus the increase of the population is kept up.

TUESDAY HORNING, JULY 9, 1867. JOB WORK.-We have now completed our office so as to execute, in the shortest possible time, ALL KINDS OF JOB WORK, and we most respectfully ask the patronage of our friends. OUR CITY-HEH PAST AND FUTURE!. The abolition of slavery has rendered it necessary for Southern men to study with more closeness the value of the labor of the operative-their inability to control and command service as their needs may require, and the necessity of prompt pay? ment in money, or some equivalent, for work done, will bring to view the impor? tance of getting as much as possible for the compensation given, and bring into rapid use all the reliable machines which take the place of man power. This condition of affairs will require close observation and attention on the part of the planter or farmer, if he desires to succeed; he will have to be constantly on his estate, super? vising every operation, and by close atten? tion produce the best results. One effect of this condition of things will be noticed. In thc seaboard sections of the State, the hoe was used to a great ex? tent, but it is an agent that requires much expenditure of human force, but with lit? tle result, the advantage obtained being that the work was neatly done. But, latterly, the plow has, we are informed, been much more generally adopted, with a great saving in labor, and it is stated that there is an anxious desire on the part of most planters to ob? tain the use of every agent that may be calculated to increase the product ive ]X)wer of the land, and facilitate its cultivation. Many thoughtful, practical men are of the opinion that, by the introduction, generally, of machine power into the State, and a free ! use of fertilizers, the present population of South Carolina might double her present productive powers, and it has been men? tioned that it was possible for this State alone to produce a crop of 800,000 bales of Cotton. If there is anything approach? ing correctness in these opinions, what an immense bound forward is immediately within the grasp of the population, and what a large and early increase of DU?;??? might not our gooa old city expect under such a change in the productive powers of the State. The burnt district that now so hideously disfigures the very heart of the place would be rapidly and elegantly re? built, and all her population would be ac? tively and profitably employed. THE CULTIVATION OP COTTON IN THE BAST. The withdrawal of the Cotton crop of the Southern States from the general market, during four years of hostilities, caused the manufacturers of the world to make vast efforts to replace, by the growth of other countries, the great crop of the South. The large advance in the price of the staple, as? sisted by the steady and incessant efforts of the British manufacturers, caused its culti? vation to be attempted in all places where there was the least chance of success. These strong stimulants used to force its growth have certainly produced consider? able results, and our planters are now coming face to face with the competition brought about by these influences. So great has been the change in some parts of East that Egypt, that was formerly a food ex? porting country, is now compelled to import largely of provisions, and in some districts positive famine has prevailed in conse? quence of the substitution of cotton for grain crops ; and in India also it has been alleged that one of the elements increasing the late -disastrous famine in that country was the planting of cotton in place of pro? visions. In these densely populated countries, food is of the first importance and the cul? tivation of a sufficiency of such articles on the spot as sustain life is absolutely neces? sary-viewing the subject from this stand point, have not these countries already reached the maximum of their cotton pro? ducing powers, and under decreasing prices for thc article in the markets of the world, may not our planters look for a dimunition, rather than an increase of the yield of these countries in the future. We are disposed to believe that the most telling competition from these competitors will be experienced, when the present grow? ing crop of the South gets to market, and we have full confidence that with a proper exer? cise of thc skill and energy which our plan? ters generally possess, they will in a few seasons become as they were before the war, master among the cotton producing powers of the earth. CHEAP BREAD STUFFS. The mail of yesterday brough TS the following letter from Mr. G. A. Nk FFER, a well known grain merchant of oui oity, who is now travelling in Tennessee i ob? serve and estimate for himself the yie of the present grain crop. Our readers w 1 be delighted to notice that there is a pros? pect that the price of corn in Tennessee will reach forty cents per bushel this fall, and that there is great probability that we will have an overwhelming crop of grain gene? rally. Glorious news this for the starving South. May she bc hungry no louger. The commeuts in reference to railroad management we hand over to W. J. MA? GRATH, Esq,, President of ?he South Caro? lina Railroad, who we know is doing all he can to facilitate trade. In reference to thc whiskey, we presume that our respected Commanding General would prefer that it [tjftiould not come this route at present. 8HELBYTILLE, TENN., July 4, 1867. xMr. Editor: Tennessee and Georgia have made haeveral millions bushels of wheat, ami there is a J large corn crop to be made yet. The opinion is, corn will soil at forty cents per bushel this fall. The corn crop will be larger than it has been for twenty years, and, if the seasons are favorable *~ m this out, all will be right. Tennessee in 1811 made more corn than any State in the Union, and this year she will do the same. Our Southern railroads, if they do their duty, will have as much flour, wheat and corn to carry down South as they possibly can do. But if they persist in tho present prohibitory rates, the produce will have to go elsewhere. Lincoln county, in this Stats, will make more corn than thc whole State of Georgia-and whis? key, too. There aro ono hundred and twenty-live distilleries in Lincoln county. Now, if our railroads will do us justice, wo can get a largo trade from Georgia and Tennessee. The freight on flour from Nashville to Charleston, 599 milos, is $2.75; from Nashville to New Ycrk, 1257 miles, $1.70. Flour can be shipped from Nashville to Charleston, eui New York, 2000 miles, for $2.10. In conclusion, I will say that the whole Southern States have and will make more wheat and corn than they have since America has boon a country. G. A. NEUFFEB. WANTS.
