Cousart, the postmaster at this placo, waa j arrested on last Thursday night (the 19th in ?tant) on a charge of forgery, preferred against bim by Btrait A. Davis, druggists of this place. The case waa heard before Magia trato QB. J. Witherspoon, and the ?'videnco elicited was as follows: On July 81st, Strait At Davis mailed a letter oontaining two checks on the United States - Treasury at Charleston, and an order on G. V7. Williams A Co., payablo at flight, to Dowio A Moise, of Charleston. The checks were ab fltraoted and the letter, it ls supposed, waa des? troyed. On the 13th instant, a letter waa writ? ten and mailed in Col umhin, direct i OR D JW i ? & Aloise to pay to ono "JamoB Smith" tho order drawn on G. W, Williams A Co;, already men? tioned, the forged signature of Strait & Davis ?.being attached to the letter. The guilty partied, it is supposed, intended to sond thia letter to G. W. Williams & Co., bnt sent it by mistake to Dowie & Moise, whica led to tho discovery of the criminals. Dowie & Muise returned the letter to Strait ft Davie with an inquiry as to its meaning, and Strait A: Davis were not long- in ferrett mg out the forger. AU tho circumstances throw the suspicion of guilt upon J. H. W. Consort, the postmaster at Lancaster Courthouse, with scarcely a doubt of its truth. Cousart waa in Columbia at tho time tho letter to Dowie & Moise was mailed at that place, though it purported to come from Lancaster. -Tho lotter was dated July 80, but the poBt mark was August 18. This told the talo. The, lotter was also identified as boiug in the hand? writing of Cousart, which established his guilt. ' After au unsuccessful attempt to obtain bli', , i?oiisart was committed to Jail. His brother, R. W. Cousart, who is a magiatrate, arid ono of tho greatest scamps unhung, fearful of shouldering the responsibility of roleaaing him, persuaded a negro magistrate to sign a ?pelease for Postmaster Cousart at 'a late hour of the night, witlibnt satisfying the bond, k * Postmaster Cousart has not been seen here f tince his release, and is supposed to bein Co? ja Wubin, seeking the friondly protection ot the 1 praven officers, or making bis way Northward. ,1 The frequent, visita of Consul t to Columbia hinco his appointment lead to the conclusion that ho has au accomplice at that place. I learn that ono of the CouBirta confesses that ? jester od and other letters were robbed by Bi ^^Postmaster Cousart. F. G. Mittag, the principal . scalawag in ibis county, who used his influence to secure to the Radical party tho control of the mails, deserted his friend when appealed to, and re? fused to go on his bond. We owe much of our trouble to the Co usa rte, but, in low cunning, Mittag cannot bo excelled. - J. NEWS FR O JU WASHINGTON: . :_ ?

The press they know are with ?B and our cause, and If the struggle is unnecessarily proloDgea, I may safely say that the great majoniy uf patriotic Cubana will lay at tho dc jr of your President and bia administration tbe Iras oi Cuban independence from a tyrant's yoke. CUBA nor ron SALE. . By this limo tho company had nearly all said their adios to then: heroic countrymen. ' Tbe Bun roportor, not withing to detain hun any longer, said bo had but ono moro question, and that was whether C?spedes had offered, or authorized any sbcond party to offer, to purchase tbe Island from Spain. Colonel Quenada replied, with maro warmth than ho had before oxhibitod, that Unbars wero buying their rightful inherit anco with the precious blood of lier children, sud wboovor alleged that C?spedes, or bis government, ministem, generals, or soldiers are willing to nd tho island of Spanish authority by purchase, did so either through total ignorance or malice.

THE COTTON SfTPjPXX". ',. A writer in tho Boston Post, of Augnst th 24th, bas tho following sp?culation on the rc Bolt of tho cottou crop at present growing i this country. Like all outsido parties yUi speak on tho cotton growth of this section, h expects tho South to roach tho antebe)i\Li\ pr< duct qu io too rapidly. Jiu'. B? wo nuT^ha\ a snbstautiai increase of the yield of tho slap] during tho present season, hie reasoning will t read with interest : Onr own crop cannot be fully estimate until Its growth shall'bo completed. He mut havo good information, guided by good judi meut, who can then estimate thfc out-turn wit an approach to tho actual result. But propos tiona of what may bo from what has been, ni useful in limes of undue excitement for the prudential suggestions. Tho cotton season i 1859. just ton years ago, w-is singularly like tl present Ono, so far. Late in planting, bael ward in its start; good weather and "oven-inj up" by rapid growth in June and July; etorii or injury ny w.irm?, (caterpillar) drought, we mst, Aa, only m spots, not general, aloe through Auguat. Thu*, year and this wei alike, also, in making and securing a good bo tum or jp. which ensures eariy supplies in ma ket. So far the parallel. That year tho go? autumn wasfoMowed by a late and fine matu lng season, and the ci op actually saved oxcoe od 4 800.000 bales, (or 4 675,000 balee besidi the Southern consumption.) The Isborlr farce was able to save BO much by reason the largs picking to the hand wbioh could 1 done early. Already we have* the same ropor this year from all the cotlon States. lt.remains to bo soen how tar the llkene between the two seasons shall be continue and If throughout, ic will remain lo compoi tho area planted, and the product per so: undor tho obango in labor, then and now. The enly guide wo havo BS to the present c ?loci ty of tailor ia its attainment since tho w n each soot ion. In every section of tko co th country the people on the spot believe th will exceed, not only i OM h o eggregate, but the yield per aoro, any crop since 1861. The Shipping List orop statement for 1867 set down the receipts: Virgin's.bales 187,1 North Carolina. S8,i South Carolina.240,! Georgia.........?..405 C Florida..... 84 6 Alabama..;...........;.366.1 Total.,,.',......, .'"*'.l,36'l,l Virginia, of course, included some), ?ottop. i eel ved overland from tho Weat. This cnti section taken together is estimated, by its ot peoplo snd press, to have this year an increa of 12 to 20 per cent, lu avers fy. and, owing the use'of fertilisers and tc?, lato favoiat changes in the prospects, thoy estimate a pi duct per aore exceeding the oaptolty lo eavs and beyond any ever made, except in the sm localities where injury has been done by rm Ac. Allow for /both, increase of acres and yield duly 20 per?enr. upon the above prodn Of 1867, 1,862 127 plus 272 425-1.634 652 bal? - The product of the Mississippi Valley, whl for morly found market at New, Orleans on! ts now divide i, and a considerable portion torwarded by overland routes to the Norths ports or to the mills. Taken together tb pnvduot for tho year now dosing, as a tated the tables, will bo about 1.160,000 bales. I common an 1 almost on i versal roport from tbe States nowls, "our crop will be limited only the capacity to pick lt." Last year tbs pit lng began lato, for there was no bottom or worth pioking separately, and ceased on ms fields in October because the caterpillar bsd < B troy ed the top crop.- This year the bott? crop la maco and in procos^ of gathering, ai the clanger of any destruction of the top or Booms to be postponed to the advent o black frost. A gain of ti" .te weeks at one a five woeks at tho other , ? ?j of a ploking seat enlarges the lab ir power widely; and when I larger applies to a orop opening with notion ty m each field as contrasted with a soAttei opening, the difference te practically Arty ir i ons h nod red per cont, in the capa erl ty of j same labor. It therefore remains to bo seer the crop really is so largo tbat under th fa vorablo blrcomatanoe?, snd the stimulus high prices, It cannot all be saved. To moderate, allow an increase of 25 perce only, 1160.000 plus 287,500-1,437,500 halos the vallov crop.

NEQUO JURORS ID MISSISSIPPI.-An impor? tant point bas boen settled at the present term ol thc Circuit Court of Lowndes County, mississippi. We abridge from tho Sonthern Sentinel as follona: lu the case of Armstead Munger, freedman, idictod for tho mordor of anothor troedman, when the apectal venire was called by tho sheriff, only ouo while and three negro Jurors took their seats in tho jury box,.

The Bhoriff aunonnced to tboconrt tbat ho bad only been able to anmmon aoven ont ol tho fifty required - tho uecrocB generally deny? ing their names. Colonel 8. M. Meek made a j motion to quash the oem rc. The points of tho ' motion weio numerous, but the most im? portant was, that the negroes wero not re? cognized as jurors by the constitution and lawa of the t?tato; and the military ordern not having beon complied wilb by the assessor, in relation to the return ot the lista of mimes, tho negroes Bummoned were not competent Iurors. After arguing thia point at aome euglb, tho District Attorney not resisting the motion, the co ait decided that the point waa well taken, ami the panel waa quashod. There were two other negroes indicted for murder, aud tho point made in Muntrere caso being sustained, upon same motion, tho other venire? were quashed, and the Ihrco oases con? tinued until next torm. Strange as it may Been), ali tbreo of these negroes desire to be triod by wbito Jurors, and were indignant at the idea or being tried by their own color.

To the People of South Carolina: Tho above Company was organ'zed In 1860, in consequenceof the wholesale forfolturo of Southern policies by Northern companies. The unparaBeled success of tho enterprise bas forced several of these companies to restore (heir Sont ern policies, from the fact that they could not operate in our midst without the appearance of honesty. We keep all our money at home to build np our Impoverished country-every dollar of premium being safely Invested In the Btato I rum which lt t- de? rived. The instil utloD ts purely Southern, and heneo shon'd appeal with great force to the patriotism and and sympathy of every Southern heart. 'Tis not our purpose to make war on other com? panies, but to exhibit the special advantages offered by this purely Southern Company-founded cn patriotism and solid wealth. Its ratio of assets to liabilities-tho true teat of a company's strength-la second to none on thia continent, being nearly 1300 to 8100. Whenever and wherever wo have presented the dalma of this Company, it has not only enlisted the sympathies of our people, but baa also secured their ' be arty co-operation. We have secured GOO policies In Routh Carolina alnco the loth of February. We number arnon? our Director? General Wade Hamp? ton and Colonel Wm.
