"Ifs tne Early Bird," ?fcc.
BY A LIE-ABED.
More 'ian one lue slmwn bo x hollow
Is this proverb, au 3 ubturd;
For tho w rm, it sure mast follow,
Got up earlier th in thc bird.
Doubtless. toe. thc bird iu question
Eating witb too grout a zeal,
Suffered much tr>oi indigestion,
Uwing to that morning meal.
And it would not bo surprising
If that b ul should fall a prey
To the sportsmen; early rising
Makes the aim so sure they say.
Perhaps it's young, too-had it any
By their parents left forlorn.
Caught catairhal ailment many
From the keen, cold air of morn.
Other birds-for birds will chatter
When they saw tho bird alight.
Might have chirped with scornful patter
" Ah I the rake's beeu out all night !"
Sum minc; un the case concisely,
This decidedly I say:
Early birds don't get on nicely !
Fany rising does not pay I \London Fun.
THE TWtTCLTELL CASE.
Further Particulars in Keiara to thc
Confession of tho Condemned Alan.
Our telegrams yesterday mentioner] tbe state
ment of George 8. I witchell, made to Kev. Dr,
Bingbnrst, in which he declares that on the
. night of the murder, he wa* ronsed from sleep
by his wife coming to him and B ta ting that
she bad killed her mother in a quarrel. They
"both went to tho room where she lay doad, and
.together threw tho body ont of the window.
'The Philadelphia Bulletin adds :
Strange as Twitchell's statement is it is cor
iroborated In some degree by tho conduct of
Mrs. Twitohell, who has for some time past
-ceased her visits to her husband, and is said to
have expressed a great anxiety that reporters
should be excluded from tho scene of his exe?
cution. We are informed that tbe accused
murderess left the city at an early hour this
morning ia anticipation of ber husband's con
fession.
The following is Twitcholl's confession in
foll, as pnblished in thc Bulletin :
' I W6nt to ny room on the night of the mor?
der, and instead of going to bed I laid down
ona lounge in my room, and fell fast asleep.
Hy wife was in ced at the time. I was roused
by her repeated calls, anti ran down to the
dining-room, wbere 1 found her much excit?
ed, saying, ''I have bad a quarrel with mother,
and killed her;" I do not kuow whether she
said "save mo" or "help me hide it," but at
last we threw the body of Mrs. Hill out of tho
window io make it look as if she fell ont;
went down stairs and washed my hands and
tace at the hydrant, then went to my room,
undressed and went to bed. My wife
came np afterward and got into bed, where wo
staid until Sarah Campbell rung the bell. I
think we were in bed ten or twenty minutes. | \
I made a solemn vow to Eternal God that night
that I would never reveal it, but I cannot keep
it any longer. 1 am sorry that I said I knew
nothing about il, bnt did it with thc vow in my
mind to save my wife. I now make these dis?
closures that I may have peace with God.

On thc week our prices ?how a decliue of }? cont,

The tightness of money, tbe impossibility of negoti?
ating exchange, thc knowledge that tba exports
wouid be large, and an expectation that thorp would
bo au increase ?--bown in tue receipts have excrtod a
depressing influence iu all our markets. In view of
the small stock and a continual improvement in
goods. Liverpool advanced a little, our spiuners
eontinue to buy less tbau they are using, and we be
uYvo their averag > sto.k to bc about equal to four or
flvo weeks' consumption Thts woek's receipts rave
been swelled by deliveries from the interior towns,
which show a reduction in stock ot 8986 bales. No
better indication of approaching exhaustion of the
crop could be shown. There bave been received at
the ports since the 1st ' eptembcr, 1.7S7.184 bales of
which exporters have token l,C18,169 ba.es: ?pinners
451.804 and the stocks have increased 317,211 bales.
Deficit in receipts us compared with last year, 116,591
bales. Deficit in shipments to Liverpool now 277.3*6
bales.
In Finlay, Clark & Co.'s Bombay Circular, of Feb?
ruary 20. wo find he following information about
the crop of that Presidency: In 1808 the import into
Liverpool from Bombav amounted to 1,022 048 bales,
and into London 16 877 bales, togetber 1,038,925
bales. From Madras and Bengal we have nothing
reliable about tho crop?. Last year Great Bi itain
received from those places 413.147 b iles, so that the
total import in 18C8 into Great Britain was 1.152,072
bales.
..From thc rovcrnment reports just published aud
the news generally that has bcon reaching us from
nativo dealers, it would seem to be ccrtsiu that wo
cannot this year send forward nearly as much colton
as ne did iu 1808. The general opinion uow is that
the crop will bc 20 per cent. V ss thau last year, and
taking into account the absence of old cotton, of
which last sprint? at least 200.0.10 balos went forward,
we think it is safe to nsstuno that exports to Great
Britain in 1819 will not exceed 800,000 bales, as the
Continent at present promises to take off fully as
much as last season, no less thau fourteen ships
with consi ten ble tro ?ht engagements being on che
berth for Havre."

The Indian Cotton Districts.
Messrs. Finley, Clark A Co , in their circular, da?
ted Bombay, February 20, make th? following im?
portant remark':
From (ho Government ronorts just published, and
thc news generally that bas been leaching us from
nat ve dealers, it would seem to be certain thu we
ran not this year send forward nearly se much cotton
as wc did in 1868. Thc general opinion now is that
the crop will be 20 per ccut less than last yoar, ani
taking iuto account the absence ol old ootiou, of
which last spring ut least 200.000 balos wnnt forward,
we tb ink it is safo to assume that exports lo Great
Biitain in 1869 will not exe cd 800,000 bale?, as the
Continental present pi omisos to take o?? fully aa
much as last season, no less than fourteen ships with
considerable freight engagements being on tho berth
for Havre. From the districts we have the following
In oin ra wu t tee prices cont'nued very stiff, ruling
5r to lOr above Bombay rates. The supply ot cc tton
offering there is small, but after the Hoolec holidays
larger a. rivals are looked for. From Eaudelsh there
are complaints ol the high rango of prices that has
all along been maintained for an inferior style of
cotton. Last year's rood crop induced many nativo
firms to open establishments there, but this season
the yield is ?aid to bo fl Hy percent, short, and the
quality is inferior. Aren ts in Broach find that Kup
pas are very scarce, and Ih-y are pointing to a small?
er outrun than they anticipated some time ago,
The ginning iactoriee aro not very busy, whilst many
of the large (.hurka establishments are quite idle.
The best macbine-trianed cotton that has yet come
to the Green is from Surat, though we believe t nat
we shali still receive a bettor quality lrorn Broach
and tbe neighborhood. Estimates of tho Dharwar
yield point to a crop u bout twenty-five par cent, in
excess of last year, but it is feared that tue staple of
the lattor cotton will not be equal to what w-j full*/
ripe before the blight
Tbe Compta crop will suffer severely both in
quantity and quai''? : the official estimate allows as
mush as 53 per cent, o' loss. The chief demand
still runs upou a new o oom ra wu t tee, which con?
tinues of excellent quality, though not corni nj; up to
Ihe first pickings. Borsee ?nd Nuggar arc now not

In the Dharwar colleeiorale the weather till lately

The cotton commissioner. In u retwtt dale! tho
16lh instant estimates thc delicio i- * o" the cotton
crop of this presidency for tbo ye. lt 18-9 at "23
percent as contra td with the crop ot last season,
the out-turn of which amounted to about 1,2*0,000
bales for export," nd attributes the Hame to want
of rain Li sundry vi ohs, of which the chiet ara
Ebaudeish, Eutludghee, Sattara, and Kolapore, as
also to iu sufficient or irregular and unseasonable
rain, combined with a d?crusse in tho area under
cotton cultivation, iu Cuzerat, the latter causo
being in some measure due to the former, lu
Broech and Ahniedu ... this decrease is set down
respectively at 31,907 and 4C.315 acres. As to "the
crop iu tbu Dharwji districts," ho states that it
"bas suffered severely ir^iu the uusca.-ouab.'e pro
valence of a dry ami scorching easterly wiud," tho
"sudden a> <l injurious eft'ct " of which " ui>on tue
s'rougest cotton plants is more than can be accounted
for by mure waul ol moisture or the dryness of the
