Otra PROSPECTS FOB COTTON NEXT YEAR.-A correspondent of the New Orleans Crescent, at Napoleon, Arkansas, writes : The cotton crop next year will be smaller than this, because many of our planters are BO utterly impoverished that they will not try it again while others will only do so ou a small scale. Corn will be planted to supply the country ; stock of all sorts will receive due at? tention, and cotton will be a third rate con? sideration." 1 hear very little said about plant? ing cotton next year at alL An entire change has swept over the minds of the people of thu South, and I now tell you that this country will be rapidly converted into a grain growing and stock raia.ngregion. Tnelreedinau will not find employment next year in this portion of the country. Nearly all the banda that have been "employed this year are now dismissed, and we soe no indication manifest ;d to employ them or others. People aie constantly seen upon the streets and in the country begging for work, yet there is no one to employ white men, and black men want work and cannot get it. All are offered land at nominal figures, but . have no means to cultivate it, and wuen offer? ed mules say they cannot procure provisions, accVthe planting class are too poor to furnish them. This to prooisely the state of the coun? try. Th.8 counti-v tuis year will roisu about one-sixth as much cotton as it did last, and will raise less nex . AU coincide m the opin? ion that next year wUl be a favorable one tor the planters ; but nene seem to wish to engage in ti-e cotton cultuio business from tho fact that three years' experience has satisfied them. Our people will adopt the most economical mode of Uving, and exert themselves to raise all they want at home. The negroes have generally worked pretty weU where they hal a chacee, and are m 'infesting no inconsiderable anxiety about getting employment for tba next year, but nobody u able to employ them, " -Wo find in an exchange a statement of the condition of the Bank uf England on the llih of December last, which to us of tho So .th,' who have no moue,', seems to teU incredible stories. Omitting tractions; and estimating the pound oterlmg at hve dollars, the ? rela? tion of tho bank wu? one h uncu ed and aev?uV tesa -minions of dollars; deposits a-out the same sum;.government securities, sixty mil? lions; other esoorities, eighty-five mill.ons; re? set yo, sixty millions; coin and bullion, one hundred and eight millions" of dollars. Surely posey ia abundant ia fiflflttoV - "-: ? - Ball y tor 'tue Suggestion." To Ute Editors of the News : Thin was the exclamation make by a ead and time-worn looking old friend of mine at my elbow, as I read tho article in your paper of the 2Gth instant, signori "Progress." Ah I said he, "how sad it is to contemplato the condition of affaire 'in my own native land,' and how sor? rowful do I feel for the citizens of the western portion of Colleton District, cut off as they are from railroad facilities," &c. Let them agitate tbia idea of "Pi-ogress" until it is carried into execudon, as the citizens of the district gener? ally trill bo substantially benefited by the removal of the courthouse and jail to George's J .Station, which can, I think, bo fully demonstra tedas follows : 1st. Taking tho present altered condition of affairii into consideration George's Station is just as central as any other point for the busi? ness of the district. 2d. It is located on a high, dry, elevated pine ridge, and undoubtedly healthy throughout thc year, hence a suitable location for all the public offices necessary to constitute a court. Sd. In a commercial point of view George's Station is omincntly located for securing a large trade, having a large back country, with a dense population of the hardy sons of toil, who grow in the greatest abundance ali the t ereala and staple productions that mako up a "rade neoessary for tho support of a town. 4th. Independent of tho agricultural advan? tages, she is surrounded with fine natural streams, affording grist and saw-mills with which to feed'her people and furnish tb em habitations. 5th. in a social and educational point of view the building up of a town at George's Station would be something of which the citi? zens of Colleton District would be proud. This plaoe for many year? has supported handsome? ly an excellent claudica! scnool that baa pre? pared her young meu for colleges and univer? sities, a id may be always looked upon os a oei.tm point for the education of the youth of the district. It h.ts already its Masonic Hall, its Temperance Hall, and a church, and my venerable friend, who i ela tes these facts, Bays that "he is willing to give Bites for churches and ??adornies, so that all religious denomina? tion* and sectarian schools may erect their es? tablishments." So much for the suggestion which "Pro gres.!' throws out, and now/or the eoho which ho desires your blast to bring forth, which echo is from my venerable friend whom I hivo so often quoted. He says: 'Tf the proper authorities will maka the re inovu,. ne promises th:tt he. will give without charge a proper site for the courthouse and . ail. To religious denominations a lot lor erecting their houses of worship, and lots also for building female and male aoademios.'" The South Carolina Railroad makes this pom; desirable as a shipping depot for a large extent of country, and wis alone oouid build up tho town iu au incredibly short apace of time. Tue rich land> bordering the southern banks of tte Sar. tee Biver, tnose on both sides of the great Four Hole Swamp, those on both sides of the fertile Eiisto River, and the Indian Fields Swamp, would ol. had ah excellent ship? ping point at George's Station, whilst planters far ?nd near would lind an excellent marget for ail their productions and a plaoe to purohase : U ttie necessaries of life as well as the luxu? ries. It would only take a little energy, en? terprise and unity of notion amongst the people to build up very soon a town that any people might be proud of. Let tho people of Walter bore and its vicinity put their roads and uridgea across the Existo in good condition and establish their market at Georgo's Station. Let the people of BricLland and Sa.tkahatonio build''a central road, - crossing the ?disto at the old Poll's Far/, and they will ?eaoa George's Station, and a good market muon nearer Charlo ton than any other point on tue South Carolina Railroad. Let the peo? ple of San tee and aoross the Four Hole Swamp omi 1 a high, road, with nohow bridges, across the laid swamp, and they will bave permanent? ly a good h ig u way to and a good market at Geo rge's Station, and mach nearer to Charles? ton than any other point. Just think of it. Tin? plan would tap the almost entire trade of St. bartholomew's, and a" large portion of lower B ir HT oil ; the almost entire trude of - st. James, San tee, and a large portion of St. Matthew's and Grange parishes, and give greater satisfaction to the agricultural popula? tion, be causeo! a good market at Geo. ge's Station, and from reaching a poiut on the South Carolina Railroad that is much nearer and more oonvenient to Charleston tnan any other point. As to the name that "Progress" objects to, tba ; is a small matter. My old friend says "it wat; onoe on a time regularly laid ont, aud the surveyor dubbed the plaoe Mayville;" but it is for the people of a town to give it a name, and wh< n it may have grown to deserve one, i sup? posa it will get it, whether it be euphonious or otherwise. A rose would smell as sweet by auy other nome. Y AMI. ?oasvTLLE, S. C., December 29,1367. IBIPOETANT DECISIONS.-A couple of judicial decisions recently made in suits between pri? vate individuals and express companies have interest for tho general render, and will go far toward inspiring a feeling of security in the bo: om of persons who are obliged to entrust valuables to those exceedingly useful and gen? erally rel able and liberal institutions. ..he first case was that of a young lady named Livingston, who, returning to New York frc m a visit to Washington, delivered her bag* "gage; or rather the che-k therefor, to one of th? oily baggage express oompanes. Her trunk was lost in their possession, and she su :d for the full value of its contents-some ii: 00 in amount. The defendants plead the teimB of the check given cy them, which limited their Lability for lost baggage to a va ue not exceeding one hundred dollars. The judge held that a stipulation of that character wi s not binding, and it having been proved that the clothing, jewelry, &c, lost with tue trank were suitable and propor for a lady in her position, a judgment was rendered for the fud amount claimed. The second suit was that of a mercantile he usa in Springfield, Mass., against the Adams' E:.press Company, for the value of a box of pistols delivered to its agent for shipment to Vi :ksburg, and which was lost by the blowing up on the Mississippi Biver of tie steamboat on which it was being transported. A demand wi a made for the payment, of the valuo of the goods so lost, but the claim was rejected by th 3 company, OD tho ground that the good's wt re sent by the ordinary route and method of transportation; that the strainer carrying tb sm was not under ifs control, ?nd that the terms of the receipt given at the time the gc -ods were received by the company exonera? ted it from dangers arising ?rom river naviga? tion and steam. The expr?s? company gave nc other reason for declining the responsibility of the loss, and a suit for dam iges was brougnt bj tho losers before the Suprem e Court in June, on t ie ground that the company was a com? mon earner, -The court at that lime so d?cid? ?e, but the defendants ' appealed to the su pieme Court of Massachusetts, which has now st stained the decision, aud made a declaration in tact that express companies are common ct criers, and are responsible for the safety of tte goods which they are paid to transport. Fow: THE BOSTONIANS nm DIOESNS.-The "Nw York Tribune describas how the people of ".aub" demeaned thomselves at the "read? ings" of Dickens, in this wise : - '.'The audiences la Boston were irreproach? able ia decorum. They came with maek punctuality, the ladies with their knitting und Gurman grammars, the gentlemen with the iorth-American Review, and the children with Our Young Folks; they sternly frowned down' applause, and ;f any ill-bred person lar.ghed, he was very properly insulted, and held uo. to r" '.ac ridiculo iu the evening paper nett day; they* grow stiller and stiller with ?ach. Successive reading, un.il in the last even? ing the loveliest and most embarrassing silence reigned in Tremont Temple fur the two whole hours. Tho ?udienco was perfect in discipline, pei feet in decorum, but like perfect people'lu- general, it was disagreeable you itnpw; JWhen Mr. Dickene waa patnetio the x'ostoni?iis beoaine critical, and counted their ?eire; when ho was funny, the* hesitated to laugh HU.they saw whether tba best people wera laughing too, and in fine, not only were aU-the seats reserved, tut the people who sat in then were ?;ty times as reserved as the Mat?,? Things In .Yew York. THE POLITICAL CAULDBON-GRANT'S CHANCES - WHAT IS THOUGHT OF HON. A. H. STEPHENS AT THE NORTH-EMPLOYMENT FOB WOMEN TEBBTBLE DEMORALIZATION - TRADE ANS FINANCE. The New York correspondent of the Augusta Constitutionalist writes under date of Decem? ber 28 : THE PRESIDENTIAL CANVASS. The canvass in behalf of Genera] Grant ha? not made progress ; in fact, the most intelli? gent mon, fr? e from decided feeling in the mat? ter, whom I meet, declare that he bas fallen behind. Bis position is fraught with many dangers. If he receive the Republican nomina? tion, he must accept it with a very Radical platform, or with very distinct Radical avowals on his part ; either of which would drive off large numbers of Conservatives, while the ul ra Radic?is would not be pacified. A considera? tion of this fact has weakened Grant very much. The programme of the Coopor Institute Grant Committee is promulgated this morning. It is, substantially, that Grant must Le brought out by the people, in meetings of the people, and thus forced unon both political parties. The soheme is the on1 v one that has the favor of Grant, and its omoial announcement was all that was necessary to explode it. We are not quite ready yet to elect a President, and have two groat questions that are yet to be settled, to the uncertainty guidance of a man of whoso political opinions we kuow nothing, and of whoso wisc statesmanship wo have very bttle evidence. What the South and the Democrats might have reason to expect from the influence that would surround General Grant, elected under such circumstances, may oe judged from the fact that the Times, the principal organ of the Grant Committoo. declares that negro suf? frage is established, and will be maintained in the Southern States. WELCOME TO ALEX. H. STEPHENS. The announcement that Mr. Stephens will visit aome of the principal cities of tho North and address the people upon tbo subject of Southern affairs, has called out many expres? sions of welcome from tho press; but from an undefined sonse of prudence, these expres? sions aro not eo hearty, nor general, os those which one hears in private cueles. He is neld in the highest respect; ho w?l be eagerly lis? tened to; and bis words will have a good effect. I do not think that in tho whole number of Southern statesmen there is one who Ls so well understood and appreciated as Mr. Stephens, or who can exert BO great an influence upon all classes at the North. WOMEN AS COMPOSITORS-EMPLOYMENT FOB WOMEN. It may be of interest to tho craft to know, that the effort tn te.ch females the art of type? setting, wuich has been faithfully and per? sistently made in this eily in the past three years, is not proving a success, especially in tho newspaper offices. There are many diffi? culties that have not boen satisfactorily over? come. Among the most prominent of these is the unwillingness or inability of women to decipher the ordinary ruo of manuscript. Young women who can write a letter that will be accurate in spelling, punctuation and other essentials, seem to be utterly at sea when they under take to put in type the manuscript of another, even though it be prepared with greaft care. The second difficulty is their unrelia? bility in emergencies. Newspapers winch re? cently employed several female compositors have reduced the number, or dismissed them altogether. The snbjeot of employment fdr adult, unmarried women, has Dccome a very grave ona. Those of American and English birth will not servo as domestics, and these placea are left to the Irish and Germans. The latter have much tue best of it. Thu JO who work in shops experience great hardships, eurn very small wages on the average, and live poorly. All this has already produced an ira? nienne amount of demoralization among our female population. BUSINESS MATTERS. Capital io this market begins to come to the support of cotton; confluence in tho atiple is very strong, and at present price J there ia con? siderable disposition to operate for a rise; oon Bum jtion is inoreasing, and most no * bs fully 45,000 bales per week, which a very alignt im? provement iu trade would carry up to 50 Od), and thus the de m ind somewhat exceeds the supply, and au advance would be necessary to restore the equilibrium. My information from Washington leads me to the opinion that the tax will be reduced to one oent instead of aDol ished altogether. Tho receipts of the Federal treasury are now below its exoooses, and Con? gress will be loth to abolish tho cotton tax. General trade is dull, bnt from the faot that nearly all leading staples are selling at a loss, an improvement ia very probable noxt month. Gold is not likely to go much lower, unless it be temporary, and if any is to decline it must be public securities-government and railway -from which attention is likely to be diverted by many influences. Affairs in the AV est indies. THE NEW CAPTAIN-GENERAL-SLAVE TRADE-TEE OBOPS-HEALTH-THE WEST IPDIES, ?C. The Havana correspondent of tho Baltimore Sun writes undei date of December 23 : The principal circumstance of interest ls the arrival o? Captain-General Lorsundi, and if only half of the benefits which are expected to be brought about through his coming are realized, the island may well be proud of having for once a well-meaning master, who, no.withstanding the stereotyped duty of all Spanish officials, that of niling his pocketB at the expense of Cuba aud its inhabitants, may dispense justice and protect the commercial and agricultural interests of the country. There are sufficient abuses to rectify to keep his Excellency in hot water for many months to oome, but the cliques which generally con? trol every captain-general who has ever been here will soon be ?ormed, and, within a few weeks, matters may be the same as before. The ancient and powerful slave-trading fra? ternity, composed of suca wealthy mon as Du ranona, Zalueta, and ethers, expect to reap a rich harvest by being per rutted to exercise their former profession, and stock their plan? tations with new working hands at a cheap rate, but it is doubtful whether the publio would remain ignorant of the traffic, and the undertakers might find themselves in a pecu? liar predicament by English and American cruiser i hovering about the coast. The reports from all parts of tho island re? garding the crop are very good, and a fine season ia expected. The crop will be a very large one, and the prices such as to enable the planters to pay off aU their debts and have something loft to spend among the retail deal? ers ic fanoy and dry goods. A large cumber of office-seekers have arrived from Spain, awaiting the action of General Lersundi to turn out the present incumbents and fill their places with the new-oomers.. The oity is vary bare of strangers and the hotels empty, the report of cholera having kept visitors away. There is no longer any langer, as the disease has disap -eared, only twenty Heaths having taken place from ohoiera in the last nine days, and all thes -, with one ex-ep tioo, among the Chinese, negroes, and poorer class of ?be population, who live hungrily in filthy hovels. The newB from the different Weat India Islands is nothing but bad; earthqu ikes, hur? ricanes and r?volutions are the order of the day. In St. Dommgo it appears that the Ca? brai Government has ended, and that Baez is once more at the head of affairs, having al? ready sect commissioners to the United States, Mr. P-jol having arrived at Santiago de Cuba yesterday. Another commissioner has gons to Jamaica, with the object of asking for mu? nitions of war and pecuniary aid. The opin? ion of well informen St. Domingans is that the whole affair will end with an application to the United States Government to be adiniitod as a State of the Union. lu Hayti there U every probability that B?na"3 will saon be compelled to leave the republic, ns the brutal assassina? tion of General Montes has deeply embittered tba people, and he does not dare to go about the st. cots unless accompanied by a strong body-guard. Porto Bico is recovering iroin the effects of the hurricane, the crops iu the west? ern part of the island being very promising. The Recent Earthquake at St. Thomas -Highly Interesting Details, The Seoretary of State has received the fol? lowing communication: The undersigned, Otto Prederiok Baupaoh, a Danu, born m the West India Island of St. Thomas, planter and estate owner in said is? land, take? tb? liberty am sabmisslyely to lay before your excellency a ccnplele one accurate lint of all the shooks and nmbling mise which followed the dreadful oarhqnake ?ur island experienced on the 18th of November last. The 13th ot November wa a beautiful clear day, with a fine blue West Idia sky. The wind was east by north, but vey jlttle a' it. The ocean was quiet, nearly a can. Theeun shon bripht and wann, and thebiomeler stood at 24 degrees, Beau ..ur in the shrJo. There wai n.t the least sign of any kind that f.retold this crest revolution in nature, vhen at once>. inst about a quarter to 3 o'clookp. M., the *a heard tho underground ruraling noised, yfllcb immediately was followed b a terrific earth? quake, which seemed to cote from south by west and pass on to north br mst. The earth seemed as ii composed of mall waves rising and sinking under your fet, so tn ol if you made a step forward, your foe seemed to meet higher ground, and if yon ut it backward it aieo there met higher grouii. To stand still in one spot was impossiba, and when trying to walk it was as if somethig kept you baok. The underground sound, wlii the first shock was going on tor about one m nu te and s half. I was most dreadful. It terned every living aouL Tue aun seemed at oio to become dun; it was as if it was eclipsad ad this dimness lasted that first day till sunat, and continued toe whole next day, ont io t smaller degree, and only wore entirely a wa.* i the course ot two days more. It was as S he sun, though apparently as bright as usui, had lost some of ita warming and lighting pwer. After the first terrific shock the sr OLD kept on groan? ing and trembling, when abut ten minutes after a seoood .strong sbek was felt. Directly after this secon shock, the ocean, which shortly belre the first shock had receded from te land about several hundred feet, was seelto rise like ona huge wa>e and come in toward he harbor. It stood up like one stiaight nile wall, about fifteen to twenty feet high, andjdvanced very fast into the harbor, sweeping c upietting the email vessels before it, and rasing the large men-of-war and other steamers o iii top. The appearance of this wave was li'e a vhi'e ma? soned wall, erect sod straight, s if nado after a rule; it had no appearance at II of a wave in general. It broke is over thelowe: parts of che town to the height of a couple o.' teet, and to the extent of about two randed io two hun? dred and fifty feet inland, atoordirjr to the fiat uess of the locality. This wave nsirg was re? peated a second time, after in mtervil of about ten minutes, and this ?=e;ond vare seemed even to be a little larger than the first, and went a little further inland After these two waves had passed away, tht ocean renamed os far os the eye conl i Bee ag?i quite calm, just as before the first shock of eatnqutke. The shocks continued and wre felt every few minutes. It was as if the sucks the fiiat day hnug together as ut one chin, but from a quarter before three o'clock oe the morning of the 19th of November the Rooks were felt, more separately distinct, and herefore seem? ed as if they were more freq ant From 2( o'clock P. M. on the 18th, till $ o'clock A. ii. on the 19th, there wore eighr-nae shooks. From 2i A. M. on the l9th, till aidngbt, there were two hundred and thirtf-eiihc shocks.

Southern Rclltf. [From Ibe New York Trhuni] The South is to-day rich in land .nd poor in almost everything else. Fart of her soil is badly oultivated, the larger porno, unproduc? tive, while her mines are unopend, and ber water-power runs to waste, beca us abo has no capital wherewith to develop std improve them. Toe very best thing that mea ff means can now do for the South sud for tbjmselves is to iuveBt liberally in th s purohase 3f her lands. They are amazingly cheao-offen offered for lesa than one-quarter of te?r intrinsic raine, yet offered iu vain. Money Therewith to buy them is not foo nd at the Sout^ ; the few wuo Eossesa it have too much land aM&dy. Fami ea which hold * thousand acas of mainly good soil, but generally in bad undition, are absolutely harassed by debts of few hundred dollars, and know not how & meet them, ihey try to borrow ; but no one nahes to lend them : the security is good, buf repayment is slow-those who made advance to Southern planters in. 1885, expecting pa>ient from that years'orop, are often awaiti ar it yet, with a oloudicr prospeot than that of ro years' ago. It is not possible to obtain nana m such amount as will afford senuibi relief to the ?outh ; ont real estate is now BO ow there that money con be invested to grit advantage, even though the land were to liddle and taxes be paid on it tor the next two otthree years. There is no question of willigness to sell ; the owners must sell, or the betriff will save them tho trouble. At least a fuarter of the soil of the f rmer slave States i in the market at low prices to-day.

THE LATEST EXPRESSION FROM GBANT. - "Mack," the Washington corespondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, in hs letter of the 22d ultimo says: A gentleman by tho name of Bogers called on Goner 1 Grant y?sterday,and in the oourae of conversation asked him waat be thought of Hancock's New Orleans oner.

He nov pays $1000 for one hundred acres: and baa told $8000 worth ol wheat, having almost paid bia rent in vegeta? bles, etc.. etc., and his profits are between ?2000 and $2500. Then for our young men to go about with lone faces, complaining of hav? ing nothing to do! When Richmond fell, Mr. Pr 8idont, 1 was fifty years old, and have been delicate all my life; I went into the field and ploughed regularly, and made a good crop and fed my family. And then for young men to siy they can't work, its a shame-a burning shame I u. B. AND MES. SUMNEB -The some time ago report that Mrs. Sumuor was to came to Wash? ington to preside in her husband's establish? ment baa failed of verification, and the Home Journal of last week has the following, indica? ting that thero is no likelihood that snch will ever be the case: "We have good authority for stating that the differences between Mr. and Mrs. Charles Snmner. which have caused so much unpleas? ant gossip and scandal, have been finally set? tled by a permanent separation, with the mu? tual consent and desire of both parties and heir best friends. The direct cause of this separation is simply the certainty-discovered only too late-that lhere exists between the parties an incompatibility of temperament and opinion upon certain social questions, whioh firecludes the possibility of their living happi y together as man and wife."
