He points out that diversified ' labor is springing up to absorb and Increase tho capital which formerly went from the cot? ton planter into slaves, and that the wealth spent by Alabama In the purchase of slaves up to 1860 would, If spent half a century upon . works of public Improvement and in factories, hare doubled the. present population and wealth of the State. The cotton planter .to- -WSS-D hs? made more money than he 1 made In any year before 1861. The * consul also enlarges with mach detail upon the other sources of wealth which Alabama enjoys. "Her mine?is,'' he says, "her water, her power for factories, her mild climate for con? tinual labor, her fruits, her advantages for rail? roads and water line system, ber diversified farm products, her vineyards, her diversity of sou. and climate, all present advantages which, taken In connection with her production of cot States of th? Union." . -A Washington letter says: '"'.Some of Mr. JefiT. Davis1 personal friends, who have return? ed from visiting him in Baltimore, say that he ' has partially recovered his health, but he ex? presses an earnest desire for quiet and free? dom from the excitement of public affairs in tte future. They add that in these expressions he does not. Intimate any expectation of per? sonal. Interest in public affairs. He neverthe? less fears, that some of the local politicians In "iCsatoeippl will attempt to advise with him, and announces that he will repel ali suchat - tempts without regard to the probable coase I quenco of unfriendly criticism from his old friends. They also report that he studiously avoided ali discussion of the present political situation, and contented himself, when refer? ring to it, by expressing a hope that the libe? ro! Conservative Republicans of the South and the Democrats In the North would succeed ia . the pending uiipaigas. Referring to party names, he ls reported to have said that the De? mocrats of the North represent what ls left of the principles of self-government, while the Conservative Republicans of the South repre I sent OU tbat is left of the same principle to the - people Tit that section. Finally, Ms friends re? port him to be Infavor of the election of Judge Dent as Governor of Mississippi." -The story of Jordan's treachery ls thus told in a Havana letter'of October 2: ' "The most important sensational news has been ac . lively circulated in this city for the past few days in regard to the surrender of Jordan, with his whole force. It has constituted the i main topic of interest. The telegram inform? ing you of the fact was authorized by the Cap? tain-General, who sent for the agent of rho New York Associated Press, and through his telegraphic censor gare lum the news that General Jordan had submitted proposals of surrender, not of himself alone,- but bf the whole force under his command. The terras said to have been proposed by Jordan were substantially that a large sum of money, (amount not stated,) was to be paid to him on the completion of the surrender, and that his personal safety was to be assured by the gov ernmont until his safe arrival in the United States. The reply of General De Rodas was that, considering existing circumstances, ids duty compelled him to refuse any proposals of . this nature, and that he hoped within the sltort space of three months to mete out to him (Jor? dan) the punishment which his piratical con ' duct merited. This ls, la a few words, the version given by the Captain-General of the affair which has caused such intense excite- ? ment here." -A new criminal code ls to be laid before the North German Parliament on its assem? bling, a draft of which has been lately publish? ed, and has elicited considerable comment from the German papers. The smallar States, especially those incorpor?t.'d with Prussia as the result of the conquests of I860, have boen much more lenient In their penal laws thar, the larger kingdom, a fact which has proved the accidental cause of an apparent reaction In criminal legislation. There are no less than fourteen offences, whic.i, in the old Prussian code, are punished by death, while !n other I parts of thc country that penalty was inflicted I for murder alone, and In Nassau ls believed ' to have been abolished altogether. Accord- ! lng to an account of the new code in one of our foreign exchanges, death Is made the penalty of th i ee offences-murder, trea- [ son and violence against tho sovereign. Thc judges arc to be accorded greater discretion in availing themselves of medical testimony iu ! cases where it is necessary to ascert :in the men? tal capacity of the accused. But insults against the government will bo punished even more severely thp.n they are now. It Is thought j that thc German Parliament will probably ! modily many of these clauses, and the liberal party will make an effort to get .rid of thc death punishment, which, however, it ls said has become only a nominal penalty all over Germany, except In aggravated cases of murder._ In these days of philological knowledge and analytical criticism, the attempt is rarely made to palm on the public, as real Simon Pures, literary veuturcs of the stamp of the Brummagen idols of the Indian mar? ket, the crosses and sabre-hilts of Leipsic and Waterloo, the Elizabethan stools of the old curiosity shops of London, or, coming nearer home, the apple-tree chips of our own Appomattox. The reviewer, less often at fault than the professed student, contrives to strip the veil from the things which are not as they seem; the caustic acid, applied alike to true and false, searches out the spurious metal. Among the philosophers themselves, strange to say, there is an occasional anxi? ety for personal notoriety which predisposes them to give credence to whatever is novel and strange. Patient research has led to so many important discoveries in the trod? den paths of literature, that the reading world is ever ready to accept the gospel of a new dispensation. A mildewed manu? script, or a tear-stained letter, yellow with the dust of centuries, may change the whole aspect of an historic era, and overturn in a moment the theories of the learned and the unreasoning belief of The populace. Each illuminatus is eager to add his mite to the store of wisdom. The plains of knowledge become a Heaven-kissing hill, as every stu? dent casts his stone upon the growing pile. The man of thought and speculation is de? sirous to connect his name with a new pro? cess, a new formula, a new reading; and. now and then, the scholiast is as thoroughly befoot?d as though he lived in the days when George Stevens-whom Gilford dubbed ''the "Puck of Commentators"-gulled his eon temporaries with a pickled tombstone, on which was carved the drinking horn of Har dicanute, supposed to mark the burial .place and commemorate the last carouse of the bibulous royal Dane. So is it that in the ranks of the philoso? phers and book worm3 the literary . forger often finds a willing dupe. Of this there is a curious instance In the case of the famous letters whose discovery was announced some months ago by M. Chasle3. a French satan and a member of the French Acad? emy. The names of the writers of these letters was surely enough to put an intelli? gent man on his. guard. Galileo, Pascal, Louis XIV, Columbus, Calvin, Luther, Seal iger, Michael Angelo, RaiTaelle. Shakespeare, Cervantes, Ronsard, Tasso, Dante, Bocac clo, Petrarch, Laura, is a long roll, lo say nothing of 2000 letters of Rabelais and sev? eral hundreds of Montaigne. Besides a long list of royal names, there was "a goodly "number bearing the names of Julius Cajsar "and other Roman Emperors, also of the "Apostles and St. Jerome, Gregory of Tours, "St Augustine, Charlemagne, and many of "the Merovingian Kings." The Apostles are thrown in as make-weights between Ro? man Emperors and Charlemagne. A hot discussion arose as soon as the first of the letters was published, and the polem many aro copies made by order of Rabelais in the Abbey of Tours. All that M. Chasles vouchsafed te say was that he himself was convinced of the authenticity of the letters, and that to let everybody know from whom they were received "would have led to such "offers being made < o the possessor as he "could not have resisted, and would have "compromised the fate of the documents." This ex cathedra statement did not satisfy the critics, who are led by intrinsic evidence to believe that all the letters are arrant for? geries; not simple deceptions like the inno? cent inventions of Chatterton, or the auto? biography of Mary Powell, the first wife of Milton ; but frauds for the direct purpose of cheating and bamboozling the public. Among the many who took the pains to examine the wonderful manuscripts of M. Chasles was Mr. Clark, a Trinity College man, who made a trip to Paris expressly for the purpose. The result is a most conclu-, sive demonstration of tho utter falsity of these so-called letters of the illustrious men and women of fifteen or twenty centuries. Some of Mr. Clark's notes are amusing enough. Of the Shakespeare letters, two or three, npon the dramatic literature of France, bear date when Shakespeare was twelve and four tcenyArs of ago. . In one dated 20th March. 139t, Shakespeare speaks of the deatli of Montaigne as a recent event, and Montaigne died in September, 1392. In another Shakes speare is made to refer to Mary Stuart as having confided to his keeping two hundred "embl?mes d'amour." written to lier first husband, because her second husband, Darn? ley, was jealous of the affection she bore his predecessor; and as Shakespeare was not quite three years oM when Darnley was mur? dered, he must have been a prodigy, indeed, to-have been so honored by the Queen. Be? sides the letters, M. de Chasles exhibited one hundred" slips of paper, each containing a French proverb or saying relating to love, with au English translation, and signed "W. "Shakespeare." The translations are gems in their way. ' lA mour vainqueur (let Diene" is rendered "Love conquers the Gotha." and "Ce Dieu est tout puissant," is according to Shakespeare, "Wath is it (rot fi can't do?" And yet M. de Chasles still clings to the delusion that the documents are genuino, and refuses to be convinced that he has not, abo, three thousand letters of Galileo-one letter for every day in eight years of thc life of the great philosopher. So did the gait? ered Pickwick cleave to the mysterious stone which exercised the combined wit and wisdom of the members of the Pickwick Club. A benighted rustic might declare that the puzzling hieroglyphics were plain English for "Bil Stumps X his mark." but Mr. Pickwick, like M. Chasles, would not be enlightened. To the day of his deatli the "love sick Pickwick" was undecided whether Roman. Dane or Druid was sym? bolized and honored by Hie calcareous mass which did not. like Caesar's dust, stop a bung-hole, but became the door-stone of a hovel. Thc annals of literature contain no ac- : count of a greater dupe than the French academician. The fatuity of M. Chasles : gives a new meaning to the old epitaph : "Ci git Piron, qui ne fut rien Pas m?me Acad?micien." A L Hf ra ry Fraud. lill- 'll 1 I I ll. 1 ' Cotton Stealing. Our Florence correspondent suggests what appears to be a simple and practical plan for stopping the cotton stealing which in so many counties is injuring seriously both land-owners and laborers. Township ordinances and thc resolutions of county meetings may check the universal pillaging, bat tliey cannot bring it to an end. Nothing less than a stringent act of the General Assembly, regulating the hours of purchasing loose cotton and providing for the punishment of the buyer as well as the seller of stolen produce, will have any last? ing effect ; and the planters, farmers and laborers, who kuow where the shoe pinches, may properly take steps at once to secure the passage of such an act at the next ses? sion of the Legislature. We presume that in this State three plan? tations out of four are worked on shares : that is, the laborers receive at the end of the year, as compensation for their services, a certain share of the crop. This share is usually one-third, and, as the profit of the laborer depends on the amount of the crop, he is proportionately as deeply interested as his employer in preventing robber}- and theft. If one hundred pounds of cotton is stolen from a plantation by prowling ne? groes, the colored laborers on the planta? tion lose. thc value of one-third of that amount. Two-thirds comes out of the pock? et of the employer, and one-third out of the pocket of the laborera. The hard-working colored men are for this reason as anxious to prevent cotton stealing as the employers themselves can be. As land-owners and laborers occupy thc same ground and have a common interest in avoiding loss by pillage, it is proper that the two classes should unite in a memorial to the Legislature for the passage of a bill for their joint security and protection. The freedmen who feel the magnitude of their nightly losses will, we are sure, be out? spoken in their demand for justice, and we hope to see a petition prepared in every county in the State setting forth the wrong and suggesting the obvious remedy. These petitions may be presented to the General Assembly together, and as they will bc thc expression of the desires of the colored peo? ple, as well as of the whites, the members of the Senate and House will be too wise to pass them lightly by. The State press, by agitating this subject and carrying out thc proposition of our cor? respondent, can certainly make thc move? ment a success. The CharlestonTand [Liverpool Steam? ship Line.
