The judge re? fused to give his consent, and the trial will proceed." -Notwithstanding his great age, his Holi? ness the Pope ls said to be a most excellent singer as well as eloquent and pleasing orator. I? Els voice has retained all the depth, richness, '] and sweetness that distinguished lt in his youth, and ls as sonorous and lull as ever. He ? rarely, now, preaches or chants the mase,* do? ing the latter only on Christmas day and Easi? er Sunday. -The ''crystal cabs," which were recently _int?Mtaea* oj me ire* TO?'K iranafer vom pany Into that city, ore proving a great suc? cess. Twenty-five of these neat and unique vehicles have already been placed upon the streets, and the demand lor them by the pub? lic Is so great that the company have decided W ?dd twenty-five more to the number Imme? diately. -One merciful act ls recorded as having been performed in the course of the week In which, between the petroleum and th? m?r- j i, ders of the Communists, and the murders, and shells of lhe Versaillists, Paria was made to re? semble an earthly replica of the infernal re? gions. Some Versailles soldiers having de? lected a small boy with a bottle of petroleum in his hand, Blood the lad up against the wall, -??ry to shooting him. Their officer, prepai- .

Physiology he said, wis about the appearance ol the face, but on being corrected thought it referred to the shape of the head. He did not know what mathematica meant, and Laus Deo semper he translated "the laws ot God for? ever." The curious thing ls that these are Just such blunders as the real ?Ir Roger, judg? ing from the letters preserved by his family, would be verv_ apt to make. -The medical fraternity in Washington con? tinue to discuss the alleged virtues of cundu rango, the hew South American remedy for cancer. A correspondent of the Patriot says that Dr. Norris, of the United States Army, has had one case under treatment with this vege? table, that he gave it faithiully ia accordance with the instructions which accompanied lt, and the patient died.. A naval surgeon, ac? cording to the some authority, treated a pa? tient in a similar manner with a similar result. The secretary of the interior has authorized Dr. Thompson to p'ace one of the wards of the Columbia Hospital at the disposal of a com? mittee for the purpose of experimenting with the remedy; but as it ls understood that the committee expect and wish to show that con? durango is worthless, the result of their tests will not be likely to have much interest for the public, however it may be with the unfortunate patients. Somebody from New York has applied at the Patent Office for, and has been granted, a patent for a cancer cure composed of rum, sugar, cloves and cundu rango; and the effort made by people in the agricultural department to advertise the vir? tues of the new specific, must be a good thing for this enterprising gentleman. It bas been intimated in several quarters that the reports of the remarkable virtues of cundurango which have been so industriously circulated, are Intended to promote the private Interests of certain parties In Washington, which may or may not be true. Quite as remarkable cures have been reported from the use of a decoction of the common red clover, drank os a tea, and used as a wash, as any that have been claimed from the use of cundurango. The truth probably is that in regard to can? cerous humors, as with other diseases, reme? dies that will prove effectual in the cases ol some individuals, will be of no avail when ad? ministered to others, who are to all appear? ances afflicted in a precisely similar manner. -Of late not much additional Intelligence lias come to hand concerning th J South Afri? can diamond fields, but what news hos reached us is interesting. Unless correspondents wriUng from the spot ore wilfully deceiving the public In their statements, these diamond diggings on the Vaal River not only give no evidence of exhaustion, but, indeed, are con? stantly extending by the discovery of new -"placers/' The territory in which the dia? monds are found already stretches ior a dis? tance of about twenty-five miles along the river mentioned, with a' width of two miles. Life in the earlier days ol California is repro? duced at the mines. A letter from the spot, ol April 14, says that between 25,000 and 30,000 people are there at present, and that the fields already exhibit a city-like appearance. The comforts as well as the vices of civiliza? tion flourish in profusion there, and hotels, concert halls, and billiard 'and gambling saloons flourish-the last, as was the case in California, prepared to win from the miners the profits made from their laborious toil. Good order is, however, maintained, notwith? standing the fact that many of the people col? lected there are necessarily vagabonds and adventurers. A sort of provisional govern? ment for the preservation of lite and property has been established, and each miner is al? lowed a "claim" of thirty feet, which he must work to a certain extent lu order to OWD. Up to April last the largest stone found weighed 96i carats, and was valued on the spot at $300,000. It was found by a party of four men from England, who were Just on the point of | abandoning the locality, having exhausted their means without discovering a single stone. An American negro found a stone which he sold at the mines for $100,000. Many other diamonds of equal and less value have been unearthed. The find of diamonds has, on the whole, been large, but as yet lt has been nothing but surface digging, and, with the introduction of improved machinery and the investment of capital, a great Increase may be expected. Until that lime shall come, however, no decrease In the price of diamonds in consequence of the discovery o? these dig? gings is to be expected. Cotton in India. Confidence in the vast and admitted supe? riority of our soil and climate over all others for the production of the great staple which clothes the civilized world, has led our peo? ple to pay little heed to the progress of cot? ton culture in other lands. Some leading facts, however, relative to cotton-growing in India-a region which now ranks next to the United States in the cultivation of the fibre-will be of general interest to the read? ers of THE NEWS. India is the oldest cotton producing coun? try, the plant having not only been grown, but manufactured there from the earliest ages of which we have any authentic record. Until within the last hundred years, Europe drew the bulk of her cotton supplies from the far East, and only lately has the scale been turned, and the looms of the eastern hemisphere become dependent upon the plantations of the western. The Iir3t import of East India cotton into Great Britain oc? curred in 1783. Th? average annual receipts Trom that year until 1792, were 65,550 lbs., rrom 1793 to 1800, 2,223,039 lbs. ; from 1S01 JO 1810, 6,357,000 lbs.; irom 1811 to 1S?0, 24,016,805 lbs. ; from 1821 to 1830, 18,835, 56 7 lbs.; from 18*1 to 1850, 70,?15/103 lb?., md from 1851 to 1859, 23,017,310 lb?. In 1850-51, India exported to all parts of the v-orld, 225,473,683 lbs.; in 1855-?, 237,179, UiMbs., and in 185C-7, 319,053,524 ito. up to i860 Ihe cotton-growers of India abored under very serious disadvantages, ilmost inseparable from the state of society .nd peculiar political ioatUjuWi mfa*** here. The <;ryots" or rarrnera were exceed igly poor, and generally each year were ompelled to mortgage ibeir coming crop to ae local money lend**?, who churged exor itant interest, and it i?ie borrower failed to ?eet his engagements, showed bira little ?ercy. Knowing that thc most if not all I I the product, good or- tefl, wou?ti h? J ' >WG'I up by the usurers, the ryot paidscarce ? any attention to the cultivation, and as jowree"-the grain on which the poorer lasses chiefly depend for food-ripens about he same time as the cotton, he allowed the ttter to take care of itself until he had athered his breadstuff, on which co loan ad been effected. Consequently the cotf 'as left to fall, and becoming wet with . .*'n nd clogged with dust and dij> ^ ? v*w irambled together, thrust K- fc , ,ally ?nt off to market. "? Sack" '* aud Our civil war ?" . ., yots ??". ,,a8 a gT% bIes8'.?g to the L "a gave them a start i a which "aey probably never could hav ? received un? der any other circumstances.. England want? ed cotton; America could not supply it; and so she turned to India. Railways were push? ed into the cotton Stricta of the" empire; the laws were so Amended that the money? lenders could nc* take the farmers' lauds for debt, and with this and other guarantees that he would be able to reap the fruits of his own toil, Ihe ryot went to work , with a will and raised more and better cotton than ever before. In 1864, when the price had advanced from 23 rupees per "bhoja" to 140, cash poured into the colton raiser's pockets in a way that he had never dreamed of. He was enabled to get out of debt, surrounded him? self and his family with nore comforts, and largely improved his agricultural resources. .'Jowree" was left for the birds to eat, and the cotton jealously watched, systematically picked, and carefully packed for shipment. Dealers in England were astonished to And the once despised "sarats," as India cotton was formerly called, almost as clean and Une as that raised in the United Stales; and although the termination of the war has brought the balance ugain heavily in our favor, yet the ryot has not forgotten the les? sons taught him in his season of prosperity. He has thrown away his inferior seed, aud now uses the best to be obtained from thia country; and planting, picking and pack? ing are properly atteuded to, though, from the nature of the seil und climate, and the difference in handling, India cotton can never equal ours in quality. Not less than 400,000,000 lbs. is the average annual ex? port from India to England during the past few years. Berat-, a valley situated in whal was formerly known as the Nizums territory, ls perhaps the best locality for cotton grow. lng in India; and Oomrawattee, one of itt principal towns, is probably the largest inte rior market for the raw article. Business here is exceedingly lively, and the energj aod shrewdness displayed by tho dealer: savor more of ihe Yankee character b??u the Hindoo. The cotton "dokras" or carU arrive from the surrounding country during the m-ht and are stationed in long Hues often to the number of a thousand or fifteei hundred, around the central mart. At \ very early hour the streets aro fud ol Jbon> bay and city merchants, their clerks and servants, who proceed to examine the con? tents of the carts and drive bargains with the producer, who is quite their equal in commercial ability. i As there is telegraphic communication with Bombay and thence to England, Liv? erpool quotations generally govern the rates, but the price for the day is usually fixed by some leading merchant, who selects a sam? ple which suits him and comes to terms with the owner. Most of the business transac? tions are over before the breakfast hour, and when that meal is finished, the "dokras" are driven to the merchants' sheds, the cotton taken off, inspected and weighed. The ryot receives from the weigher a m?morandum of the amount due him, which he presents to the cashier, who sits in a convenient cor? ner, gets his money and goes on his way re? joicing. Thus the dealer is brought face to face with' the producer, no commissions are exacted, and the article brings its full'mar? ket value] to the man whose industry has drawn it from the soii. Carpet-Bag Zeal In the Cause of Eda. cation. The Winnsboro' Netos, in the course of an article on "High School Education the Press? ing Need of the State," bas the following well considered remarks, which we cordially echo and endorse : "Nor do we need (for it ls altogether, finan? cially and otherwise, impracticable) a Common Free School system upon the scale of those in the Northern States. The State cannot possi? bly, at present, meet the taxation necessary, and such a system will not work here econom? ically, or to advantage. Our present Northern rulers do not see ibis, as we natives, who have studied it, know it to be the case. The really earnest men ol their number and the thought? less negroes under their lead, sincerely desire to engraft upon us the Northern system tn its details, which would prove cumbrous, extrav? agant and inefficient here. But the saddest part of the truth about these adventurers Is, that all their talk of education is pure hypoc? risy. They don't care a fig about the subject. The education of South Carolina is never com? ing from them. 'Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles ?' They may spend more money to no purpose, than heretofore, upon education ; but the State, the earnest men of the State, will, In the end, originate and execute a better system than any that has floated down to us from societies altogether different in their elements from our own. And, on this subject, we reiterate our conviction, that the most economical, practical, efficient and popular plan of public education now, the one that will bring public education soonest into favor, and render more extensive educa? tional work practical, ls to concentrate the main effort, tor several years, upon the corpo? rate towns. Give them the power ol taxing for purposes of education, and supplement the tax, when laid by them, by appropriations from the State Treasury. Establish one or two first class (not simply primary, but secon? dary,) 'Graded Public Schools ' in every coun? ty town, Inwood comfortable and convenient bulldinge, In which regard our State ia dis? tressingly deficient. Cease to fritter away the money, or to make the whole cause of public education inefficient and unpopular, by scat? tering lt, In driblets, upon poor teachers and inferior schools."
