Remarking upon tho prevalence of cholera in
New Orleans, the Republican says very few mou
born north of, the Potomac aro mentioned in the
lists of those to whom the present epidemic has
proved fatal. The proportion of Northern men
who recover from yellow fever is very large.
The Texas Jimplecute vouchsafes an explana?
tion of its extraordinary name. " Jimplecute is a
compound word, derived from jimple and cute.
Jimple is a corruption for simple, and was original?
ly applied to sophomores or the wise fools' of col?
leges, but is obsolete anywhero except iu Texas."
Tho strike of tho miners in Pennsylvania has
resulted in a resumption of labor at very low
wages, their average earnings being from $7 to $9
per week. The proprietors expect to establish $1
per day as regular compensation. Tho miners
find themselves involved in almost inextricable
debts to grocer and clothier.
Mr. EDWIN BOOTH is recovering, aud is now
considered safe from the threatened loss of his
arni. He has made an application again for the
remains of his brother, pleading very earnestly
that his mother being very aged, craves tho
dead body, so as to inter it before she dies
near that of his distinguished father, who is
buried near thia city. The request has been
denied.
The New York World suggests that while they
have a society for the suppression of gambling,
another for the suppression of intemperance, and
another for the suppression of cruelty to animals,
that it would be well to organize a "society for the
suppression of frauds upon the internal revenuo by
sworn Government officials," who defraud the na?
tion, according to the Tribune, of nearly half a
million cf dollar* each day.
An English weekly newspaper has a column of ad?
vertisements from persons desiring exchanges, lt
is patronized by ladies only. Some of the exchanges
proposed are very curious. One offers music and
novels for a scent bottle and ostrich feathers.
Another wants birds' eggs for loreign postage
stamps. A third offers LOHOFELLOW? poems for
a yellow parasol, and still another wanta a volume
of S WTNB URNE'S poems for a copy of Euclid !
Washingt jn City waa never so prosperous. New
buildings are going up in every quarter. The
lands in the neighborhood, long neglected or de?
voted only to slave labor, are being rapidly pur?
chased at high prices by farmers and others from
the neighboring States of Pennysylvania, Ohio
and New Jersey. Another railroacLis being built
from Baltimore and Riohmond, with another
branch running into the District of Columbia.
There aro rumors at St. Petersburg of an al?
liance between Russia and the United States, in
view of certain contingencies which it is supposed
may lead to war. It ju certain that large quanti?
ties of arms have been purchased in the United
States by tho Russian government, and all of the
arser.ils are hard at work. It is expected that
war will be originated by an insurrection of tho
Slaves in Turkey, with whom the most open sym?
pathy is expressed.
The Imperial Commissioners of the Universal
Exhibition publish a notification in the Moniteur,
stating that they are actively engaged in prepar?
ing the'medals and diplomas which have been
gained by the successful exhibitors. Owing to the
great number of these rewards, a longer time will
be required to get them ready than was at first
calculated upon. A notice will, by and by, be
published stating the timo and place of their de?
livery.
The Anfitn>" frigate Novara, which is to con?
vey to Europe the remains of MAXIMILIAN, is to be
upholstered in a becoming manner, so as to serve
aaa floating funeral chapel. The people of the
Canary Islands presented a laurel wreath, beauti?
fully worked, to be platted upon the burying-case.
The case is composed of a zinc shell, inside of a
wooden one, the two being placed within a beauti?
ful metal case, artistically finished and of great
raine. The whole weighs about eight hundred
pounds.
A new book by Queen VICTORIA lus been printed
and will shortly be given to the public. Her Ma?
jesty describes, in her own fresh and feminine
style, a series of journeys, chiefly made by the
royal party in Scotland. A good deal of guide?
book matter is thrown into the narrative, and
there are many pleasant references to her travel?
ing companions and servants. From this book
the public will learn something authentic about
the Prince Consort's gillie, who bas recently attain?
ed a Bort of grotesque notoriety in England.
The Illinois editors, to the number of one hun?
dred and fifty, will make an excursion iu October
over the Union Pacific Railroad to the Rooky
Mountains. Each man will be armed with an En?
field. A printing press will be taken along, and a
twenty column daily newspaper published. The
feature in the programme that looks the reverse
of rosy, is that "the party will subsist on game
killed on the route." The only game visible along
the line last year consisted of shy coyotee and
friendly Pawnee pedicidi. A lunch off cold Sioux
might however, be indulged in this season.
The Princess of Wales has made decided im?
provement in her health at Wiesbaden ; so-much
to as to reUder, it is anticipated, her recovery
complete and not distant. Her loyal Highness
already begins to walk a little in her room with
assistance, but unfortunately the roads outside of
the town are too rough to enable her to take
much carriage exercise, and the sheltered drives
in the park are too much frequented for the Prin?
cess to be often in them. Her royal Highness is
regaining flesh, and the reports of her deafness
are understood to have been much exaggerated.
Mr. ERNEST JONES, at his recent lecture in Dub?
lin, gave seme interesting stat' f ?os. He said there
were 7?,000,000 iteres i u the tl je kingdoms. In
1770 there were 250,000 owners of this laud. In
1656 the humber had diminished to 32,00J, and
waa still decreasing. The Duke of Cleveland might
ride twenty-three miles through his estate ; the
Duke of Devonshire had 96,000 acres in the county
of Derby alone ; thc Duke of Richmond possessed
310,000 acres ; and the Marquis of Breadalbane
might ride 100 miles in a Btraight line through
his property from his own house door.
Captain OBxysv, of the ship Belgravia, from
liew Orleans, exhibited at the Liverpool Exchange
News Room, (August 31), a box of lucifer matches,
known in America as "telegraph matches." The
box, wrapped up in cotton, was accidentally and
fortunately discovered by Captain OBKNEY in a
bale of cotton, which was being "packed" on the
Levee at New Orleans for shipment Whether
placed in " the bale by accident or design is not
known; but as this is not the first time such a dis?
covery has been mado, it is to bo feared that, for
some unknown reason, a scoundrel placed the
matches among the cotton, regardless of the fear?
ful .destruction of life and property which they
might have occasioned.
Boulogne now ranks third among the French
porta for the value of ita imports and exports,
norning in 1866 immediately after Havre and Mar?
seilles. The new floating dock, which will supply
the accommodation to trade for whioh the pres?
ent harbor is aow insufficient, is rapidly approach?
ing completion, aud it is positively stated that it
will be opened early next April. It will be enter?
ed by means of a lock, opening directly to tho
channel between the piere, and will cover an area
of more than twenty-two acres, with three quar?
ters of a milo of qruy spaoe, on which rails will bo 1
laid communicating with tho station. Since tho ;
railway from Boulogne to Calais han been com- i
ploted, all the mad trains between Paris and Ca- 1
lats pass through Boulogne, which now has the |
advantage of these in addition to its own trains <
for the traffic to and from Paris. i
A London correspondent says : "It is under- t
stood that the Queen will shortly lose the personal t
services of her faithful Highland gillie, JOHN
BROWN, who has been her Majesty's chosen attend?
ant in her rides and drives over since the death of i
the Prince Consort, who had a special liking for i
and trust in him. He was included, as it may be |
remembered, in tho striking picture, by Sir EDWIN I
LANDSEER, of the "Queen at Osborne," in this ]
year's Academy Exhibition, and no photograph t
could have given & more perfect Jac-simile of his i
personal appearance and respectful bearing. It 1
appears that, despite the confidential post assign- '
ed him in the royal household, he is desirous to 1
redeem the troth long ago plighted to a young i
Scotchwoman of his own grade; and it is under- j
stood that a residence in one of tho lodges at Bal- 1
moral, with the supervision of a certain part of f
the fonjain, will prove a gratifying testimonial to fc
bim of the value entertained of his service by his f
royal mistress, E

THE PALL MALL GAZETBE gives tho follot

lomew's Church, Moor Lane. London: "At
morning service antiphons were sung before
after each of the psalms of the day. and also bi

only six minutes. At the evening sorvi?e tho a

candles. The sorvico commenced at seven o'cl

accounted for by tho length of some of

THE NEW YORK TIMES is not complimentary
the patriot-poet of Antietam. It says: "In a l
ture edition of his Humorous Poetry of tho Eu
Uah Language,* Mr. PABTON must suivi y give
prominent place to tho poem pronounced at Ant
tam the other day. Having already given tl
production iu full, we would not now mar it i
extracts to show its high claim for tho place v
bespeak for it; but tho work of art, as a whole,
certainly 'fearfully' if not 'wonderfully made.' Y
may regard this 'poem'-or, let us moro correct
say, this 'metrical production'-as a fair exhil
of what can be achieved whon a free field is openi
for tho newspaper bards of tho country. Once
>. mildred times (as if to prove tho rule) an 0
?option like ISA CBAIQ'S beautiful poem on <BITB>
comes from such 'competitive co utcsls.' But tl
result in general is Buch as cv havo hore. Pega st
is a horse that kicks at being nc muled by con
petitive people of this sort. Tho man who wrol
this poem, though not a poet,may obviously claii
to bo a 'poick' of tho highest order. His effusio
certainly has amused tho country more than au;
thing since the 'Bigelow pE.ptrs.' We traco a pa!
of its merits to the fact that thc Conimittoc r<
quested in advance that '200 lino? should bo tb
minimum length of the pot m. In lack of ins pin
tion, therefore, the poet was conipolled to invok
the muse of history, and g voa a very 'imaginativi
description of the combat. lu flue, we know no
whom most to congratulate the poet on hi
genius, or tho Committee on their poetical taste
as shown by their selection.".
THE ANTIETAM CEMKTKKY t'oMstissioNKits btv
agreed upon a design for thc monument. Thcr
were six competitors. Tho award was given to Mt
J. G. BATTEHSON, of Hartford, Couu., who furnish
ed the designs for the Gettysburg Monument am
the Worth Monument. The height of the uioun
ment will be forty-five feet, and it will cost #80,00(1
It will bo of Westerly granite, which is a lighl
gray, and at a distance resembles marble. At th<
base it will bo twenty-two feet square, only otu
foot less than the Gettysburg monument. It wil
be composed of blocks weighing from six to rlfteet
tons each. The lower ba?e will bo two feet high,
Above this there will bo a platform course two feel
high, and about seventeen feet square. This wil
will be followed by a massivo moulded base, flank?
ed at each angle by heatry buttresses, their grace?
ful lines adding strength to tho structure. Next
there will bo an immense die, ton feet high and
nine feet square, surmounted by a cap weighing
fifteen tons. The whole structure will be crowned
by a colossal statue twenty feet high. The statue
will be that of a private soldier statidiug as senti?
nel. It is to be cut out of an immense block weigh?
ing ninety tons. This will be the largest statue of
modern times, and more unique and characteristic
than any ever erected in this country. It is be?
lieved that it 'rill be moro attractive, and will give
a greater impression of massiveness that that of
Gettysburg, whick ia fiftv-fivc feet high, and cost
$30,000.
THE NATIONAL AOBICULTLRAI. Bureau is about
to make itself very useful. It is going to assist in
getting up a horse fur. A circular will be issued
asking the loan of fast horses from all parts of tho
country, "ao as to make the exhibition tnilv of a
groat national character," (in thc language of the
speoial from which we quote). The show will take
place at the National Race Course, which, we pre?
sume, will be rechristened "National Fair fi rounds'*
for the occasion. Pursos- wo mean premiums
amounting to $30,000 will be offered. Among the
competitors-"entrios," as the vulgar racing
world calls tbeiu-are some of the fastest goers of
the day. It docs us good to seo the Agricultural
Bureau turning its gigantic abilities to tho "im?
provement" of the horse. Two long havo tim?

That noble fruit was brought to perfection somo
years ago, thanks to the unwearied Holicitudo of

JOB WOBK.-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.
TUB NEGRO AND THE COTTON TAX
It is very certain that the prosperity of every
part of this country is dependent on wise laws
well oxecuted. If the South to-day is unable
to reconstruct her labor, re-establish her in?
dustry and rebuild bet former prosperity, it is
because of the nawise agitation and unconsti?
tutional legislation on the part of the North.
The South is depressed; capital refuses to
come hither; the labor of the oountry is more
interested in following Parson FBE.VCH, et id
tjenus omne, at political meetings than in making
bread. Through the whole country Union
Leagues are disorganizing labor or endeavor?
ing so to do. The Radical is striving to retain
power, not only at the sacrifice of the Consti?
tution, but also at the sacrifice of the entire
South. Can he not see the results of his work
re-acting on his own section? Can he not see
that the North is not to-day in the healthy
condition that it would be if the South were
prosperous? Can he not see that every dollar
made at the South ia of actual benefit to the
North? Does he not know that Northern ships
remove our produce, Northern capital . nego?
tiates our bills of exchange, Northern manufac?
turers sell lo us ia exchange for our products
the domestic goods that we are obliged to wear?
Bo not Northern aud Western farmers exchange
their corn and bacon and bay for our money?
Are not Northern coal and iron the necessities
of our daily life? Does he not know that unless
we produoe we cannot buy? If he does know
these things, (and one can scarcely imagine
that he can be blind to them,) we may well ask
ourselves if the policy which he has inaugu?
rated, and which he is making Titanic efforts
to carry out, is not based on a spirit of selfish?
ness, which is determine! either to rule or
ruin this land, so rich in capabilities, but
whose copabililies, like thoso of sny other
country, may be destroyed by uni ne and un- I
just legislation?
It is a fixed fact in political economy that I
any legislation whieh imposes burdens on the J
productive capabilities cf a country is unwise, I
and certainly tends to diminish the wealth of a
country in diminishing its material resources. I
If restraints are placed on the industry, or on I
any industry, of any portion of a country, the I
wealth of the entire country is reduoed. J
Whether the South be reconstructed or not; I
whether Radicals insist on calling these States J
Military Districts or not; whether our mern-1
bera of Congress are admitted to the Senate I
and House of Representatives or not; whether I
we of the South are obliged to bear the burden I
of taxation ot not, without representation, it
cannot be denied that the North and South are I
members of a common country. Their inter- I
eats are joint, and any legislation which affects j
the prosperity of the South will re-act, as it is I
to-day re-acting, on the prosperity of the j
j North. I
The Radicals are" appealing to the ne-I
gro to destroy the white man in the South. I
They have organised Loyal Leagues through- j j
out the South, and they delude the negro I
by proclaiming to him that the war I
was fought by Radicals, when the contrary I
ist rue. Few, very few, Radicals, gene-1
rahs or privates, took any prominent part in I
the war. The army was conservative, and I '
fought principally for a constitutional Union, j1
The Radicals, as i rule, stayed at home, manu- j '
factured "shoddy," got contracts, made money I
and talked boldly. Now that the war is over, 11
that party is determined to claim tho results; and j '
in claiming the results, to perpetuate its power I '
at any and at every cost, and if it. is necessa- I '
ry to do this, they will, if permitted, destroy I
constitutional liberty on this continent. With I
regard to the reconstruction Acts and their
logical results, we shall to-day say nothing, j
The northern eleotions must settle those ques- I
(ions. With regard to negro rule in the South, I
we do not design to speak. The radical press I
?nay disguise the fact as it will, it may attempt I
to delude its readers by speaking about the j
power of brain and of capital, but when regis- j.
(ration shows as i does in this Stale, that the I
black vote is to tho white, as is two to one, it j
follows as a thing of conree, that if the Radical I
does not mean to turn over this section into the I
hands of the negro, fie is both committing I
a folly and giving the lie to his doctrine of j!
majorities. We do, however, design to show j
that the negro is merely to be made a tool, a J (
stepping stone to power, a thing to be used, I
and to be crushed ; used to control the white I j
vote in the South, and crushed by being made I
to bear a large part of the taxation of the coun
try, and to lighten the burden of white Radicals I '
at the North, 11
The cotton crop of the present year, is eiti- j1
matad at '2,500,000 bales. On this, the Radical 11
Congress has imposed a tax of two and j
a hal: cents a pound, while it has not only re- j !
frained from taxing the products of the soil at
thc North and Northwest, but it has protected I
manufactures in New England to such an ex- I
tent, as to shut us out from the cheaper markets I
of the world, und to compel both white and I *
black men at the South, to pay to the manu- J
facturcrs of New England, much more than J
they would otherwise be compelled to pay for I
their daily necessities. Two cents and a half j
a pound on cotton, will produce ten dollars a I
bale, at un average of four hundred pounds J j
to thc bale. If the crop reaches the estimated I
quantity, a tax of twenty-five millions of dollars J
will be the effect of this, and who will be most
injured by this system of legislation, seems to j
to be too clear to admit of much discussion. A I.
large part of the labor of the South is done by I
the negro, and a very large part of the negro f
labor is devoted to the cultivation of cotton. (
Now, it is a well known fact, that labor is de- I
pendent on capital, and that capital, in order
to be induced to embark in any labor, must be ?
promised a fair reward, if capital cannot make ?
inouey with labor at a certain price, labor
must either starve or it must work at reduced "
rates. The price of cotton has been steadily ]
decliniug, and with the markets of the world
open, and with the East in active competition
with the United States, (he day is not far dis?
tant when the price of cotton will not be equal
to its present cost of production and the tax. 1
When this condition of things happens, will
the capitalist turn philanthropist, and cultivate
cotton merely for the benefit of labor, at a loss
to himself of the entire interest on his invest- y
ment, or will not self interest operate as it has i
always done all over the world, and will he not
say to the laborer, your friends, the Radicals, a
huve destroyed my profit, unlsss I reduce ?be G
?rice of your wages, and will not tho laborer
>e obliged to take the reduced wages or starve !
?Viii not the first effects of Radical rule operate
lirectly on those whom they arc at present
leluding with the prefense that Uicy arc theil
irmest, their beat, und their only friends ?
lt is true that this tux operates greatly to the
injury of the white man at the ?South, lt ?3
true, also, that the North is waking up to the
fact, that paralysis at the South affects the
North, but the person who is most affected,
who is primarily injured ia the negro, who is
asked to build up Radical power in these
Southern States.
TH Bi COTTOIT SUPPL.*.
Our readers arc aware that there baa existed
for many years, in Great Britain, nn associa?
tion of influence anJ power, whose business
has been to promote tbs growth of cotton in
all parts of the globe, other than the United
States, with the view of raising up competition
with the American-grown article; and also for
providing a supply tor the British manufac?
turer in case thc American crop should be di?
minished in quantity or be entirely cut off.
This large and important society has lately
held a meeting at Manchester, in England, at
which the annual report was made, and state?
ments put forth which contain matter of great
interest to all citizens of thc South, and some
of thc most striking pointa of which we here?
with notice. The' Committee state that they
have received, during the year, one thousand
one hundred and ninety-four letters from the
various cotton districts of the world, soliciting
advioe in reference to the culture of the plant,
and asking for grants of seed and machinery.
The quantity of seed distributed by them,
chiefly American, amount to three thousand
and forty-nine hundred- woights from'Manches
ter, and one hundred and sixty hundred?
weights from Alexandria. The seed was sent
to Constantinople, Bagdad, Egypt, the Cauoa
sas, South of Spain, Majorca, Algiers, Greece,
Italy, Bombay, Calcutta, Kunachee, Singapore,
Phillipine Islands, Cape of Good Hope, Sene?
gal, Lagos, West Coast of Africa, Canary
Islands, Fernando Po, Berbrie, Antigua, Cuba,
Porto Rico, Nevis, Tobago, Barbadoes, Bahia,
San Paula, Rio Grande, Santos, Peru, Bard
iank, Friendly Isles and Queensland. It was
held that a cheap supply of cotton was of thc
first importance to the English manufacturer,
and that no effort should be spared to ensure
an abundant and low-priced product. In es?
timating the supply for the british market for
the coming year, they place the amount to be
received from this country at about 2,500,000
baNes, which is too large by probably 700,000
or 800,000 bales. They next speak of thc prob?
able amount to be received from Brazil, and
put it at the same as last year, say about 400,
000 bales, and talk in sanguine terms of the
prospect of tho staple in that empire. Not
much is expected from the West Indies, but
they are hopeful of Peru, which ten years ago
sent 400 bales to market, and now raise 40,000
to 50,000 bales. .
The growth in Turkey, Egypt and the Levant
generally, has rapidly declined during the
past two years, and instead of 430,000 bales
which was the amount received from Egypt in
1865, the Bupply last year was reduced to 167,
000 bales, and this year it was not increas*ed.,j
Turkey had been nearly UH deficient, and fell
from 80,000 in 1865 to 33,000 last year. They
hope to realize from their attempt at culture
in Queensland, (Australia,) some 3000 bales
during the year. But the hopes of the associa?
tion are mainly placed on India, which sent
them in 1860, 563,000 bales, last year 1,847,000
bales, and this year the supply is estimated at
1,450,000 balea, showing a falling off of some
400,060 bales in the India receipts. They
make various suggestions and recommenda?
tions in regard io the culture in that country,
and hope that irrgation when properly carried
out will afford a large increase of the crop.
One point is noticed which struck us as of j
importance to operators and grocers of the
staple, and that was the great influence which
an increase in the price of food had on the con?
sumption of cotton goods. In the British
Islands provisions had risen in price during tho
paBttwo years some 50 percent., andas long as
this state of affairs should continue, and tho
working man receive no addition to his wages,
he would necessarily have to reduce the
amount of his clothing bill. This, at present,
is undoubtedly one of the great causes of re?
duced consumption of the article notwithstand?
ing the grudually falling price. In closing we
will say ta our Southern readers, that after
perusing the report, that we are more sanguine
than ever, that the old and densely populated
country of Europe and Asia, will not be able
Lo grow large crops of cotton for a series of |
(rears at low prices, and that with energy,
economy, and a skilful use of labor, and all
the improvements of the day, a few years will
see the Southern planter again master of the
:otton world.
