* r VOLUME VII.-NUMBER 1157. SIX DOLLARS A YEAR EY TELEGRAPH. THE COTTON TR AI) E. What is Required to Start the Lanca? shire Mlll?-Aceordlng to tao London Time?, not Cotton, but Cost o Kera. LONDON, September 23.-Th? Times, in an article on the cotton supply, sayer "Mr. Ash? ford and Mr. Bright, by different methods, ar. me si the same end, namely, that nothing is wanted but cotton.. More cotton would start the mills, dispel distress and silence tbe clam? en against free trade. Of this we are not sure; bat we ate well aware that the prostration of industry in Lanca8bire demands attention. Cot? ton is dear because it is scarce. Why scarce ? The crop of the Southern States, with consi ll? era ble consignments from other points, bas enorrnously increased the supply. If less cot? ton arrives, Liverpool must investigate the cause. It would be safer to say that Lanca? shire suffers from loss of trade more than from dearness and scarcity of cotton. "The demand for goods is less than it for? merly woe. Ii the Americans would take our manufactur?e as freely as we take their corn and cotton, the Industry would be entirely ours and tbe supply of material theirs. It is not impossible that tbe protective tariffs of ot ber countries are answerable in some degree for the. depression in Lancashire. It is certain that in this case cheap cotton will not remedy the suffering. Tbe loss of tbe market is not ma? terial. Our manufactures formerly command? ed the world; they were better and cheaper than those of other countries. What is to be done now that people refuse to buy in the cheapest market ? Without free trade manu? facturing excellence losses its value. If t rade is bad in consequence of tbe restrictions of other countries, tbe scarcity or abondance ot cotton is immaterial. Without doubt Lanca? shire suffers because other countries refuse to trade freely with us. To attempt to relieve her sufferings by refusing to trade freely with them wouid be absurd." EUfiOFE. THE CONDUCT OF NAPOLEON WITH BEGA RD TO THE LEGISLATIVE BODY. LONDON, September 24.-The Times tc-day has an editorial on the present situation of affairs rn France. Tt says: "If the Emperor is now recovered, his conduct cannot easily be accounted for. The new constitution maybe regarded SB already virtually ia vigor. The granting of an amnesty, the tolerance extend? ed 4P the press, every circumstance contri bates' to foster the conviction that a new era has dawned. Yet tbe Emperor remains inac? tive, as ii he considered everything done. Meanwhile public opinion demands tho convo " cation of the Legislative body. Uneasiness at tbo delay canses some members.to contemplate the invasion ot their own premiaos next month with tho view cf deliberating without the eon sent of the executive. No one, however, ex? pects a resort to ?ach extremes. The legality of the Emperor's*'conduct in allowing six months to elapse between the dissel uti ou and reoonvocation of the Chambers depends on a technical quibble. Although the Corps L?gis? latif separated before it was constituted, still it had given formal signs of its existence by ' several divisions." The Standard says: "Whatever har legiti? mate claires to Cuba maybe, Spain labors an? der disadvantage in having to prosecute them in the face of the susceptibilities of the Ameri? can people, while she' is herself in the condi? tion of revolution. The Americans can not wish anything else than that daba shall be free to choose whether she remains with Spain or be? comes an independent republic. That material assiaUnoe is rendered to Coba through the sympathy whieh Americans feel for ber, cannot be doubted; bat if those sympathies should demand war, it would be the most anomalous and extraordinary conflict ever seen." The Guardian says a manuscript in Lord Byron's own writing will soon be pa bushel, which will settle the question raised by Mrs. Stowe. * ' . FsUHOJt ? PARTS, September 25.- The Constitutionnel denies the Galois story of the Freneh note to l*ru83ia, that the absorption of Baden would be considered an act of war. PRUSSIA. BERLIN, September 24.-The ministerial journal announces that the Crown Prince of Prussia is to visit-Yienna on an invitation - from the Emperor. Thia fact shows that a de? sire is generally entertained at Vienna for the estabhshment of most friendly relations with Brassil. BADIN. BADEN, September 24.-Tho session of tbe Diet of Baden was opened to-day by the Grand Dake in person. In his speech the Granl Dake said the relations of Baden with the North German Confederation were of the most friendly character. He was happy also to an? nounce that a national feeling was in process of development among the people of Germany, and thai measures were about to be taken to make homogeneous the defensive system of the Confederations of North and South Germany. NETTS FROM WASHINGTON. WASHINGTON, September 25-Noon.-It is stated that the President, on reading accounts strongly committing the exeoutive to interfere in favor of the extremists in Texas and Missis? sippi, said to parties of bis official household tbnt^thc reports were not substantially true. The facts are, that the President will allow the secretaries to act their pleasure in their several departments. This will throw the patronage of the Postofficd, Treasury and Attorney-Gen? eral for the extremists, and tba Secretaries of State, Navy, War and Interior, if they inter fere at all, will favor the Conservative Rapabii cans. This rough statement of the situation is the closest approximation possible. Tbe best opinion persists in asserting neutrality in the highest quarters. Major-General Reynolds has addressed a let? ter to President Grant, dated September 4th, in which, after speaking of political affairs iu Texas, he says: "The platform of the two wings of the Republican party are the same. Tbe Radical wing act ont their professions of ad? herence to the reconstruction laws of Congress, and present tor office men who are qualified ander these laws. The Conservative wing fre? quently nominate men for office who are known to be disqualified ander the reconstruction acts of Congress, and present for office men who are qualified under tb ese laws, lhe Conser? vative wing frequently nominate men for office wbo are known to be disqualified under the re? construction laws, bat wno are also known to be acceptable to the Democrflfe. The success of the A. J. Hamilton faction, a? it will be pro? duced by*Democratic votes, will be the defeat of ^publicanism in Texas, and will put the State in the hands of the very men who, dur? ing the entire period of the rebellion, exerted every nerve to' destroy the Cnion, and who have uniformly opposed the reconstruction laws with a persistency worthy of a better cause." The Register of the Treasury has gone to Pennsylvania to stump tor Geary. Hoir has been applied to for bis opinion re garding the power of the Virginia Legislature to elect senators. The President appointed Nathan Patton col? lector of cn atoms for the District of Texas, and William B. Moore assessor for the Second District of Texas. Twenty-five thousand dellars of fractional currency wero forwarded to, each, Charleston and New Orleans. The Secretary of the Treasury has author? ized the Assistant Treasurer at New York to sell $1.900,000 of gold on each Tuesday and Friday until November let. The first sale wi.l be made os Tuesday next. It is further or? dered that $2,000,000 of bonds be purchased on each Wednesday until the first of Novem? ber. These sales and purchases are in addi? tion to the eale and purchase on account of the sinking fund, which will be continued without change._ THE riSASCI AL ELVERT. NEW YOBS, September 25.-The Assistant Treasurer accepted three million dollars of five-twenties offered to-day at from one hun? dred and sixteen and seventeen to one hundred and eighteen and eight one-hundredtbs. The amount bid wa? seven and a half million Col? lars. It is almost impossible to get money at any price-seven, with half commission, freely bad tor turo mg stocks. The bouses reported yesterday as having suspended are still in the same condition, and, it is rumored, will not be able to go on. The Tenth National Bank is in trouble, and, it is reported, must suspend, unless othsr banks assist it. LATEB.-A -few loans wero made on govern? ments at 7, gold, and 1 lo U. Gold nominal. Gold sola, only two millions. The bank statement shows three millions decrease in loans, and fi ve millions decrease in deposits. No other markets changed. Gov? ernments unchanged. State bonds dull. Stocks very dull. The Tenth National Bank paid all demands. A broker named Solomon Wahler suicided to-day. Cause,-gold losses. CALIFORNIA. SAN FKASCISCO, September 23.-Yesterday, in the heavy rush of gold, caused by Atlantic advices, tho bauks refused to sell at any price. Tho Israelites have organized an immigra? tion society to sid persons of their faith to como from Europe. The banks of San Franc it CD have drawn on London Xor a million and a halt in gold. A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT. NIAGARA FALLS, September 25.-The horses attached to the carriage containing a gentle? man and four ladies became unmanageable. Tho gentleman jumped off and escaped. The carriage and horses, with the ladies, wont over the bank, fifty feet. Ono was killed and one fatally hurt, The others were terribly bruised. Tho party belongs to Pmvidencp.

Its deliberations were presided over by Bi?hop Wm. M. Wight? man, in the Methodist Church, and the large crowds that attended tbe discussions upon various subjects iii connection with tbe church, evinced a lively and continued interest in the same. The meeting was preceded by a sermon from Bev. J. M. Carlisle, on the evening of the 15th. lhere was preaching every Light by various ministers, and the pulpits of the Baptist and Presbyterian churches having been tendered by those denominations, were used on the Sabla h. The bishop preached twice during tbe meeting, and made several addresses trom the chair upon topics connected with the inter? ests of the church. Upwards of fifty delegates were in attendance, representing six'y-niae churches, within the counties of Greenville, Anderson, Pickens, and a part ot Spartauburc, the membership of the same being about 3250. A'?out 300 have, witbm tbe lost few months, been added to the membership, being about ten per cent, increase. Rev. Samuel Leard, aeent for Sunday-schools ; Rev. Wm?

In thc Gold-Room. SCENES ?ND INCIDENTS. The New York papers teem with accounts of the scenes in Wall street at the stock and gold exchanges during the excitements of the cor? ner in gold and combinations in stocks that hare been going on for the past three or four days. The scenes of Thursday, it would seem, were il 1 us t ra ted by greater excitement even than on tho previous day, when the ''street*' was sudddenly startled by the rapid descent in the price of Central Railroad stock, and the equally rapid advance in the quotations of gold. THE GREAT ADVANCE OF FBLDAT. The New York Evening Post of Friday has the following very interesting editorial: The large advance in the pries of gold during this week is due entirely to speculative canses. The wealthy combination that holds nearly all tue coin in this city purchased it, indeed, when the price was temporarily depressr-d, and when, therefore, a reaction to some extent was natu? ral. Besides, the condition of our relations with Spain is such that they may have had some small hope of a war alarm, which would enable them to sell at a high premium. But it is plain that their schemes have been laid with skill, independently of such chances; and that they mean to make a sure profit ont of otber speculatois, whether assisted by e rents or not. The plams not difficult to understand. There are hundreds of men in this country who are in the habit of selling gold for future deli? very when they think the price will fall; and when it falls their profit is made by buying it at the lower pnce and delivering it, in fulfilment of their contract, at tbe higher. Bat some? times it rises instead of falling; they have to pay more for it than they get, and the result is loss. In either case, during the interval be? tween the sale or contract ot sale and the pur? chase for delivery, the speculator is properly Bald to be "short of gold;" he bas none, ana must obtain it in order to fill his contract. Instead of contracting for delivery at a defi? nite fnture time, as tbree or thirty or sixty days from the day of sale, it is most common I to sell the- gold for immediate delivery, and then to borrow it, until the seller wishes to "cover,'* that is to buy it bick. By far the greater part of all the transactions in ?old are of this nature; that is to say. they are bete on the future price of coin. The proportion which these bets bear to what is called the "legiti? mate business," that is. to tbe transactions of m'-rc-hants who bny and sel! gold in the ordi? nary course of trade, is startling to those who bava not considered it. The daily transactions of'be Gold Exchange Bank are from $100, 000,000 to $200,000,000; tbat ie to say, the bosk transf?re of gold bought and so'd amount to these sims, while the actual amount ol coin and coin certificates used in these exchanges is from $2.000,000 to $3.000.0J0. It is a fair estimate of the mercantile busi? ness of the gold room to reckon it at the sum ol all thc imports and exports of the port, and of the duties paid ou them. These amount, perhaps, to $2.000 000 oer day, on the average; but each transactions have been almost entire? ly suspended for some days pa?t. On tbe other band, the speculative business of yesterday cannot have been less than $4,000,000; and it is; on the average, at least sixty times as great as that which represents the trade of the country. Now the whole amount of gold coin owned by the banks, bankers, merchants and specu? lators of New York rarely exceeds $20 030,000, and but a part of this can be brought into Wall-street for speculative deliveries. If a combination of capitalists, thoretore, bat bay up that amount, then all who have gold to de? liver must buy or borrow of them. If they Wy o?? -oply-?!??.?-?-fi.?, h?t--mk - - sold "short" by the otber gamblers around them, they have the latter at their mercy, and can raise the price, for the time, at their will, compelling all who are ' short" to pay them the difference of price. The advance from 137 JU Thursday morning to 155 Ibis morning, represents a difference of more Aaa f:rty mil? lions oa the transactions of yesterday alone; and if tho combination wbioh has invested perhaps thirty miriionB of dollars in the "cor? ner" can secure even a twentieth ot this dif? ference for themselves, they are likely to close their accounts at last with a large profit. To do this requires boldness and skill in no common degree; bat it is plain that the rina; now at work are not wanting in these. All mercantile morality apart, it is as impossible to watch the slow development of their plans for some weeks past, without a certain kind ol admiration, as it is to read the exploits of Jack Sheppard and keep in pei feet sympathy with the thief-catcher. Indeed, the most ardent detective will scarcely claim that Jonathan Wild is, of himself, moro admirable than his lawless foe; and, however the "beats" in gold may growl and cry for government interference in their behalf, it will be impossibl e to persuado tbe public that they are worthier animals than the "bulls." It is a caso io which the govern? ment and the people may look on with perfect indifference, and admire dexterity and cunnine, since nothing else that is admirable is likely to appear. It is true that some merchante cannot be quito indifferent. Tuey have foreign bills to negotiate, and all basiness in them is stopped by the irregularities of the gold market, t hey have imported goods to pay for in coin, and can neither bay nor borrow it at any reasonable rate. They have food or cotton to ship on commission, and their markets are seriously dersnged. 1 he money market, too, is affect? ed, the gold gamblers paying euch rates fer funds as defy the competition of business bor? rowers. Even tho credit of tho government sod of onr currency seems to bo attacked; for greenbacks havo nominally depreciated nearly ton per cent, within three days. These arc evils, and give a certain plausibility to thc clamor of the 'beare" that the treasury shall come to their ri hoi. But looit forward a little. If the treasury at? tends to its owu business, and leaves the gam? blers to fight their own battle, what will be the result? lhe inconveniences of the situation, at worst, can last but a few days. Gold will come from Europe, or tho combination will break down for wiut of money, or by soon of its members cheating tbe rest; or other specu? lators will Btop selling "shorts," and the mo? tive for holding so much capital idle will cease. In no case :an the embarrassment ot trade last many days, and at its end a little activity will compensate tor the short interruption. Thu only sufferers will be those who have risked their money on the great roulette wheel of the "gold indicator,'' and lost it. Oa the other band, if Mr. Biutwell should step iiito the nag, in obedience to tbe deman.lB of the "bears" and their journals, what will he the result? Tho treasury will bo again sur? rendered to gold gamblers, and all principles of public policy abandoned. A contest will ensue between the secretary, whoso resources are precisely known to every one, ana a secret conspiracy of capitalista, whose resources are known only to themselves. They may bc or become Btrong enough to buy what Mr. Bout well eau sell, aud, if so, the ti casu ry will s mply bc depleted and defeated, and its credit iujur ed. But, if not. ibetz will be a ceneral panic in the money market, immense fortunes will be mado by one elias of buaineas and lost by ano? ther, through no agency of their owa "or the laws of trad -; and the disposition to gamble in "short" gold will be prodigiously stimulated, by the conviction that it is under the special protection of the government; a conviction which bas already d mc more to promote such speculations, and tho "corners" provoked by them, than any other caus^. In point of fact, it is said that thc risc of this morning is directly due to a rumor that Mr. Boutweil will interfere. Dreading this, the story goss, several members of the com? bination holding thc gold yesterday Bold out all they bad secretly to the rest, and sold as much more which they did not have; hoping thus to break down aad raia those with whom they pretended to act. They then, it goes on, sent a deputation to Washington, in the name of ' the mercantile community," to ask the sec? retary to sell large amoante of gold to-day; but their quondam associates detected the trick, took all they sold, and moved np the price so high as to threaten them with severe loss. If this be true, it shows exactly what the real nature of the cry for government inter? ference is. S-nce the above was in type the Secretary of the Treasury bas come into the gold market AS a "bear," announcing the first sale of $4,000,000 for to-morrow. The immediate result has bern the moet violen! fluctuations in the price; thc ruin of many speculators and the enriching of a few. The ultimate results are likely to be far more serious. DOINGS ON THUB8DA?. The New York Times says: Dunns: the whole day (Thursday) the gold room was the arena of an uproar that could only find its parallel in previous scenes of a similar kind in the same locality. The bear party at times seemed to be perfectly frantic while undergoing punishment at the bands of the exultant and defiant balle; and, as the roar of battle and the screams of the victims re? sounded through New street, it seemed as though human nature was undergoing tor? ments worse than any that Dante ever witness? ed m bell. In stock operations the day was hardly less exciting, and Central was of course the principal point of interest, as it had been on the i rovious day. POWZB OF THE GOLD CLIQUE. Old operators in the street say that the bull clique which now controls the gold market is the most powerful clique we have had in gold sinoe the war-if not the greatest that bas ap? peared since gold went above par eight years ago. Tbe names of parties who are supposed, if not positively known,to compose this clique, are freely mentioned. That the rise in gold during the last few weeks-including the sud? den advance of the last two or three days-is the work of a clique or ring, is perfectly well known. There is nothing in the condi? tion of the country, or in its relations, to justify the extraordinary appreciation of the premium. "It is the scheme of a clique* ex? clusively," said one intelligent broker; "noth? ing else whatever." And he considered that this was demons'rated by the facfk 1. That ex? change on Loudon is plenty at 105 to 107, which would afford a handsome profit for the impor? tation of gold from Europe at present prices; it being, moreover, well kucwa tim a million of gold or more is now on the way here, and still more has been ordered. 2. The parties who hold the gold io this market are paying an eighth percent, a day for carrying it. TheBe two facts be considered to be in themselves con? clusive as to tbe natnre of the present bull movement. THEIR FLAN OF OPERATION'S. This clique have been engaged in t heir opera? tions for months. 1 hey bought gold when it was at 140-and they bought it all the wav down to 1314-and then they kept on buying ft as it went ap again, their parchases being es? pecially heavy some time ago when it was al 134; and at present they seem to have control of all the gold in the market and io the banks. It is understood that when they commenced their more active ball operations at 134, in the earlier part of the month, the clique held at least forty millions, either in gold itself or ru the contracts of parties who were short to them. Although they have bought largely every day since that time, it is supposed that they have sold and settled with those short to them to fully as large au extent as they have bought-so that at present they actually bold no more than when the pries was 131. In (be meantime they have realized large profits troai these sales and settlements-expecting, ol' course, to lose ultimately upon whit they have on hand when the market breaks. JiTSHOP LT S CH IX SEW YORK. Ile Lectures at the Cooper Institute. A lecturo was delivered by tho Right Rev. Bishop Lynch, at Cooper Institute, New York, on Wednesday evening last, ol which the Tri? bune say?: The lecture was delivered under the aus? pices of the Central Dispensary, an organiza? tion established in October, 1868, by the citi? zens of the twenty-second, nineteenth and twelfth wards of this city, fur the relief of the indigent poer contained in those wards, and was tbe first of tbe course. The speaker wa J introduced by Mr. Roswell D. Hatch, who per? formed that duly in olaceof Mr. Charles O'Con? nor, tho latter gentleman boing too much in? disposed to attend. Aa the rovorend xcutlc rtp" cntrtf fogMMXd ha SSjaj Mutny appLuidciL He announced as his subject "Society aud the Poor,'' and, after alluding to its wide extent and vast importance, be proceeded to describe the condition of tho poor in Europe ns distin? guished from their condition in this coun? try. Herc the entire mass of our population seemed to belong to whut in Europe would be called the middle class, every one able to secure to himself eomething of tbe com forts ot home, wbilo, on tho otber eidv, vast fortunes were almost wholly unknown. Now, all this is changed. Colossal fortunes are not rare, and thousands arc- laboring with feverish anxiety to gain them. The number ot depend? ent poor also is increasing a hundred-fold, inc- condition of the industrial classes Beeras to be less satisfactory thin in times past. Strikes interrupt the course of trade, and tell of increasing dissatisfaction. Whither un. we tending? How can this evil be remedied? Society is called ou to act, and it is by legisla? tion that society wields its most powerful influ? ence. Accordingly we bear ou every hand ap? peals to the government to regulate industry, to protect it and assure to it just remunera? tion. The speaker then stated that there were many ways of relief, and one of them was Re? ligion coming from Heaven, and claiming to herself the first placo in this matter. [Ap? plause.] Her first words were, "Blessed are the poor; blessed are they that suffer." Next lo Religion comes Home. "Bo it ever HO bumblo, there's no placo like home.' After describing the delights of a true home, bo continued : Co to tho cellars of your city, damp and dar?", to thc cold garrets where the needle-woman sens iud starves. It is neces? sary to woYido for these sufferers suitable hemes; pure homes, however humble. Thc workhouse and pool house are the means of re? lief to many, but this has its faulte. It seems to degrado' the inmate, makes him lose his rm bi non *:.? respectability. The speaker then allu Jed to the vast increase of the pauper population in England under tho system; he then spoke of thc hospital system; that how? ever it might be in England, he would bear willing testimony to tho great good it has done hero. There is mother mode of relieving dis? tress-bv personal distribution of charity. I am tempted tocal: it the American mode [ap? plause.] for we here give it moro prominence than auv other nation. Lot the lelegrtphor press toil us of the sufferings of thc widows and orphans at Avondale. The lecturer con? cluded his discoutse with a watm encomium of the Central Dispensary, which bad for nine months labored and done so much; over 3000 patients had bsen attended to; over 7000 pre? scriptions given. Physicians and surgeons have never failed in tho work of charity. But the physicians hav - done their part, and I am sure that the citizens of New York will not fail ! to do theirs.

To the PaopU of South Carolina: The above Company wu* or.'an zed io 18C6, in consequence of the wholesale forfeiture of Soul tern policies by Northern companies. Thc unparalleled success of the enterprise has forced several of these companies to restore their Southern policies, iron? the fact that they could not operate In our midst without the appearanco of honesty. We keep all our money at home to build up our impoverished country-every dollar of premium being safely invested lu the state from which it is de? rived. The institution is putoly Southern, and hence shou'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 on patriotism and solid wealth. Its ratio of assets to liabilities-tbe true teat of a company's strength-ls second to none on this .:ontineot, bein; nearly 8300 to $100. Whenever and wherever we have presented the claims of this Company, lt bas not only enlisted the sympathies of our people, but has also secured their hoarty co-operation. We have secured 603 policies in South Carolina since the 10th of February. We number among our Directors General Wade Hamp? ton and colonel Wm. Johnslon, gentlemen well known to every citizen of South Carolina. We ap? peal personally to ibo people of South Carolina to assist in pushing forward this deservedly popular Southcin institution. J.
