GOSSIP RY MAIZ. [FROM OCR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] COLUMBIA, February 12. It bas been raining since last night, and*| everything looks extremely dui). Reports or Ima? ginary murd rs and Ku-?lux outrages are In abundance; bot to show how much truth there is in most or them, we merely call attention to the last sensation-the alleged murder or Sheriff Mc DevRt^of Edgefleld. The report, cooked up in ? moat palatable Radical style-how he attempted to carry out the behests or the law and was ronny shot down In consequence-was '.he universal gossip on the streets yesterday. Everybody be? lieved the tale; the Radicals were rampant, and martial law and suspension or habeas corpus were freely talk?d or by them, while the good peo-' pie of Columbia expressed their Indignation and horrorat'such deeds. The arrival or Mr. McDev Ktin??urmidst, yesterday afternoon, not gashed and gory, like Banqno's apparition before Mac Igf fr, . trat we? and hearty and surprised at the story circulated about him, was a se .'ere blow to tile-martial lawlsts, anda source or pleasure to the'frieuds of law and order.' He reports peace and harmony in his neighborhood. THE NXXT SENSATION * ls the>expected arrival or Ki np ton. "Why every? body should be looking for V. Imp ton, ant more especially railroad ' jobbers," j our correspondent is unable to fathom. It is suld that one ol UK "saintly" carries a certain Important railroad bil. in his pocket awaiting Vs arrival and advice thereon. Time will probably divulge the secret. HjAu'on-arrlval this afternoon disappointed many. TBS COLLETON SESATOKSOIP. .

How Oar Difficulties iv uh John Ball are to be Adjust td. The President sent to the Senate, on Thurs? day, ? brier message enclosing the diplomatic cor respontlence between Sir Edward Thornton and Mr. Secretary Fish upon the subject of the Ala bama claims and fishery questions, in a letter dated January 23 last, Sir Edward Thornton says: In compliance with an instruction which I have received from Earl Granville, I have the honor to state vaat her Majesty 's Government deem it of importance to the good relations, which they are ever anxious should subsl-t and be strengthened between the United States and Great Britain, that a friendly and complete understanding should be come to between the governments as to the ex aent of the rights which belong to the citizens of the United States and her Majesty's subjects, re? spectively, jvlth reference to the .fisheries on the. coasts of her Majesty's possessions in North Amer? ica, and as to any other questions between them which affect the relations of the United States towards those possessions. As the consideration of these matters would, however, involve Investi (cations of asomewhat complicated nature, andas it ls very desirable that they bhould be thoroughly examined, I am directed hy Lord Granville to propose to the Government of r importance that these cau-es of dispute be? tween the two countries should also and at the ame time be done away with, aad that you will mable me to convey to my government the assent >l the President to the addition which they thus propose to the duties of the high commission, and vhlch cannot fall to make lt more certain that Us abors will lead to the removal of all dui eren ces >etween t he two countries. On the 3d instant Mr. Fish responds: :,Ihave aid your note before the President, and he has ilrected me to exDress the satisfaction with vhlch he has received the intelligence that Earl -ranvllle has authorized you to state that her Majesty's government bas accepted the views of bis government as to the disposition to be mide >f the so-called Alabama claims. He also directs ne to Bay, with reference to the remainder of yonr tote, that if there be other and farther claims of Milli Bubjects or ef Americas citizens growing int of acts committed during the recent civil war n this country, he assents to the propriety ef heir reference to the same high commissioners; int he suggests that the high commissioners shall lonBlder only such claims of this description as nay be presented by the government of the re? flective claimants at an early day, to be agreed ipon by the commissioners." THE COMMISSION. The American commission consists of Fish, H?lster Schenck, Judge Nelson, ex-Attorney leneral Hoar and Senator Williams. Five commlsalonars on the part of Great Britain lave beenappointed, as foliows^Earl Oe Grey.Pro* essor Montague Bernard, Slr Edward Thornton, Hr John A. McDonald, of Canada, and Sir John tose. The secretary of the commissioners will be ?ord Tenterden. THE QUESTION'S AT ISSUE. The questions which havo arisen from time to Une between Great Britain and the United States, ,nd whlcn are to form the subjects o"f discussion nd adjustment by the juint high commission us: ppointed by the two governments, are as follows: First. The Alabama claims and all matters con lected with the conduct of England during our Ivtl war. Second. The fisheries question, which embraces mr claims for Illegal seizures and imprisonment if our citizens sin je the abrogation by canada of he license system last year. The commission vi l also determine the quesbon of the rights of Lmerlcan fishermen under the treaty or 1318, and idjust, if possible, the pretensions ol thc Do pinion to the headland construction, by which hey claim the right under the treaty to exclude mr fisherman from the Bay of Fundy, the Bay of ;halenr, and outside of a line drawn from the ex re me headlands of the Nova Scotia coast-a con? traction which-, ir enforced, would, In many ins? tances, exclude our fishermen from going within lxty miles of the absolute coast, aud thus nullify hat provision c-T the treaty which provided that, n cases of distress by weather, Ac, our vessels an seek shelter in the harbors or the British forth Araerloan possessions, with the except! in >f the Bay or Fuudy. This extraordlu&ry "henJ aud" construction was never attempted to be eu-, orced, and as regards the Bay or Fundy. Lord Lberdeen, on the part of England, lu 1843, waived he enforcement, (while claiming, nevertheless, hat lt w^s correct ) upon the spirited remon? trance or the American government In the case f the seizure of the American ashing schoouer lanna Washington. ? While the voluutary prom? ue has been given that the license system shall ie restored, yet lt is Important that tue pro.ier onstructlon of the treaty or 1818 should be dell iltlvely adjusted. In the disposition of this qucs lou the privileges the Canadians now enjoy of ishlng in certain American waters will probably ie continued. Third. Th.: claim of Canada for alleged dam .ges from Fenian raids. Fourth. Tie navigation of St. Lawrence and the lghts or the United States to the free lugress aud gress of the lat s. Fifth. The s&a Juan question, which has re aalued unsettled for several years, the American iovernment claiming the island-and. harbor of ian Juan as belonging to the United Slates uuder he treaty, while Great Britain maintains that lt i included in British Columbia. WHAT THE COMMISSION' WILL DO. The commission will meet ba Washington ia [arch, and will proceed at once to the considera, ion of the fishery questions, the -alabama ques tion?, the San Jnan boundary questions, and all other claims between American citizens and Bri* tish subjects growing out of the Confederate war. It ls understood that the commission ls not-to ad? judicate any of the claims, but will simply dis? cuss sna decide the mode of settling them. Au Important account, which will be presented by Mr. Thornton, wlU be the claims for damages by British subjects who were South during th?late war, and suffered losses frbm the military and naval operations of the Union forces. THE RADICAL KU-KBUX. Farther Outrages by ?the Radical Outlaws. The Wilmington Star learns that four of the Negro Radical" Ku-Klux, known as the Lowrey j gang, went to the house of Mr. Richard wooten, in Columbus County, about seven miles from Brown Marsh, and near tfte line be? tween Bladen and Columbus, about 4 o'clock on Thursday afternoon. Mr. W. was in his field at the time, and only his wife and a colored woman were in the house. Two of the men went in, while the other two watched at the gate. One of- the men stood guard'over the two women, while the other ransapked the house, opening trunks, drawers and boxes, and scattering everything over the floor. They demanded of | Mrs. w.. upon going into the house, the money which belonged lo her husband, and upon uer replying that she knew nothing about lt, they rejoined that they knew every? body In the county that had any money.and were determined to have it. It was money for which they were probably searching, as they carried off nothing'of any consequence. They tried to force Mrs. W. to give them the keys to the bureau drawer, which really con? tained money, but this she refused to do. and screamed for help. Her husband heard lier and started towards the house, when the rob? bers departed. They had at the outset silenced the colored woman by telling her that J f she cried oat they would shoot her. They were heavily irtned, having several revolvers about their persons. After leaving Mr. wooten's, they started.-ln the direction of Abbottsburg. A company of men got together and started after them, tracking them as .aros Abbotsbury, but failed to get up with them. There ls no doubt that they were a portion of Lowrey's gang. The two who went in'the house were both colored. The young man Briggs, Who killed McLauchlln, is engaged at work at Abbottsburg, and it 1$ surmised that their prin -nal object -was to get a chance to re? venge McLauohlln's death. A HIGH WAT ?ROBBERT. The Wilmington Star, of Saturday, says: Intelligence was received here yesterday to . the effect that Henry Berry Lowrey has added roof her crime to the long catalogue which will one day be brought In judgment against bim. Yesterday morning, between 9 and 10 o'clock, as Mr. John McNair was going along the road between Argile and Rea Banks; in Robeson County, he . was suddenly confronted Oy Henry Berry Lowrey and two or three of I tils gang, who lorthwith demanded his "money sr his life." To resist under the circumstances would have been the height of folly, so' be succubrbed with the best grace he could com nand. and delivered over to the robbers all :he money he had in his possession, together .villi a number of valuable papers. He was hen allowed to proceed on his lourney wlth mt further molestation. Mr. McNair has been lecullarly unfortunate*, having, we understand, >eeu robbed on several occasions previous' to his by Lowrey aud members of his gang of >utlaws. _ _ THE COST OE BROWING COTTON. A correspondent of a Manchester (England) laper, tindee (--tte of January 13th. prints tbe oliowlng extract from a letter received by the vrlter from a Southerner, "who has spent all IIB life in the cotton States, and thoroughly tnows the South and its people:" lam informed by a planter running three arge plantations that he can raise cotton at lc. per pound-a low estimate, I think, as it is generally estimated at 12c. (sixpence;) but, villi abundance of fixed labor, I believe lt can lejaieed under lQc. This- iefexs to Alabama .nd Georgia. In this neighborhood. In Missls Ippl, Arkansas and Texas, were the soil will deld more than the producer can pick:, tl hould not cost above 8c. If cotton can be .aised at 8c, as ls here stated, we may depend ipon lt that planters, having netted fully 20c. lils year, will put more ground under cotton han they did last, ana I think twenty per lent, not at all au unlikely increase. The only ilrcumstance that will deter them from greatly ncreaslng their production is the knowledge hat if they grow 5,000,000 bates they will net ess money for it than if they ?rrew 3,000,000 lalee, and their succeeding year's chance of a ;ood price would also be Injured. This next season the new era of cotton ilanting ls about to be more fully developed, nd proof given that free labor (whether rh!te or black be employed) -is followed by auch better results than under the old system f forced labor. Not only ls free labor more iroductlve from the employees worklnguetter, ut it ls cheaper. Formerly, a good field hand ost at least $1200, and was generally held on ?orrowed capital, on which ten per cent, lu erest was paid. This gives $120 per annum, [eeo may be taken at another $10 per month, ir $120; clothing and medicine, $20; and Uowance for insurance" and waste of trength, say 7$ per cent., or $90, (as r the negro died under the old. sys em he was a total loss.) This gives is $350, or ?70 per annum. Now the negro' >wna himself; his wages calculated fully are 15 per month-keep, say $10; In all, $300, ?G0 ier annum. The conclusion seems reason ble, therelore, that as planters in former ears made large fortunes with middling Or mus ruling at 6d.to 8d. in Liverpool, and rlth the wasteful system of borrowing, they an now, when they have capital ol' their own 0 work on, afford to sell at these rates, and find otton pay them' handsomely. Cotton plunt ag ls so profitable that the tide of immlgra ion into the more southerly cotton States will leadlly continue Increasing. 'ME ROPE AND THE BALTIMORE CATHOLICS. The Catholic Mirror states that during the last reek Most Rev. Archbishop Spalding received letter rrom the Pope expressing his great Joy nd satisfaction at the*resolutions of .sympathy assed by the Immense meetlng held in Balii ?ore, November 10th, the day of Che Arch 1 sh up's return to the city from the Vatican louncll. The following ls the letter: b our Venerable Brother, Martin John, Arch bishop of Baltimore: Venerable brother, health and the apostolic enedlction'.. We congratulate you,' venerable rother, for this, that your return was greeted 'Uh those indications ol joy which, while they ratified that.your flock with their whole heart empathized with the lilith of their pastor, were t the same time redolent of the most open de-1 otlon to the Church and to this See ol' Peter. I*e congratulate likewise the entire body of the ?altimore Catholics, who, not satisfied with so rilllaul an expression of their filial piety, wish d to avail themselves of this occasion ol' their 11 ?eetinc together that they might with one ' i oice and in a more solemn manner condemn | nd reprobate the attempts by which we have een despoiled of our temporal principality and ubjected to a hostile power. And certainly all raise is due to the weight of the reasous al :ged, with which they,after tracing the char cter ef the outrage, Its adjuncts,, purpose and rta, and the injury it inflicted on the whole atuollc family, held it up to tue execration of ll honest men, and showed themselves ready ) oppose the wicked attempt with all their trvngth, and especially to obtain from God, y persevering and earnest prayer, a speedy batement ot' so great a crime, with the trl mph of religion and of justice now trampled uder foot. And while we are consoled and ll Red tip by ??ese most religious sentiments, we rejoice Hat your archiepiscopal city and your people, y so splendid an Indication ot their faith, ave deserved so very well of the Christian oinruonwealth, which devotion certainly will ot fail to receive Its merited recompense. iTith a most grateful heart, we augur to you nd to them mis most abundant reward, and ,re ask you, venerable brother, that you would. lease to signify to all these our sentiments nd good wishes in their behalf.. Meantime, s an earnest of the Divine favor, and as a ledge of our abounding good will, we lovlng r Impart to you and to all your diocese the .postollcal benediction.
