VOLUME IX.-_NUMBER 2070 CHARLESTON, MONDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 2, 18^2._EIGHT DOLL4HS A YEAR.
The following extract ls (roma recent cot?
ton circular of Messrs. Ellison, Tibbie & co.,
Liverpool, a house tt high standing in the
trade, whose estimates and predict ins are
always entitled to careful consideration :
PROSPECTS.
Just now the feeling Is, that whatever may
be th J experience ol the Immediate lui ure,
very low prices will be witnessed as the season
advances.
This anticipation Is based on the expectation
that the new American crop will be equal In
extent to that of the season belora last, when
the recelDts at the ports and overland reached
4,26i,ooo bales.
There are people, indeed, who look tor even
a Billi greater yield, and the same people are
expecting 8d. per lb. lor middling American.
But so far as the known facts of tbe case
are concerned, there is nothing to Justify these
sanguine views. Toe season has not opened
so favorably as did that of 1870, less fertilizers
have Tieen used, and there ls leis land under
cultivation, ana with average weather irom
this forward, neither reason nor experience
warrants the anticipation of even 4.000,000
bales, to Bay nothing of 44 to i? millions. A
simple rule of three sum Bettles tols.
The first column fa the subjoined statement
gives the number of acres under cultivation in
each ot the past three seasooB; the second,
the receipts at the ports and overland; the
third, the number o? acres under cultivation
this year; and the fourth, the probable y leid of
the new season on the basis of the previous'
crops: ? - . ? - ' i

1871- 72..7,745,000..3>B7O,OO0.-8.694,000... 3,221,000
The average of the first two years ls 3,771,
000; of the last two, 3,695,000; and ot the
three, 3,588,000.
The estimate ol the agricultural bureau In
November, 1870, was 3.800.000 bales, and In
the annual report Issued last year lt is stated
that fully hall a million bales were added to
the crop by the unexampled length of the sea
Bon, and that, "had j the season been one ol
inealumleugtn, an estimate of 4,000,000 bales
would have been quite too high."
If, under ordinary circumstances, an esti?
mate ol 4,000,000 bales would have been too
high Ia 1870, when 8,885.000 acres ol land
were under cultivation, and , the season down
to November bsd been highly favorable, it ls
quite evident that, with 191,000 acres less of
land under cultivation, and with a season not
so good, a similar estimate In 1872 ls alto?
gether excessive.
The public, however, having once made np
Ita mind for a big crop will take time to change
its opinion.
For the Immediate future, lhere IB, appar?
ently, a plethora of colton, but buyers of use?
ful qualities know that the plethora is only
apparent.
This win be more palpable bye-and-bye, and
a general reduction of crop estimates would
lead to very high prices.
Snhners may avert an undue Inflation by
Increasing their proportionate consumption ol
Surats. Indeed, If they had done this months
ago, it is doubtful whether middling American
would have risen above lOd. per pound. They
have, in fact, only themselves to blame for the
late Inflation, for by persistently Ignoring East
Indian cotton they gave an artificial value to
the produce of American, and thereby encour?
aged speculation; and a repetition of what-was
wi messed a few months ago caa only be avoid?
ed by a material Increase In the dellveriea in.,
Surat, bo far as the Importers of East Indian
are concerned, the present year bas been one
round of disappointment, and they will take
care next year not to bring the Bombay crop
to market at the same time as the American,
unless spinners can see their way very materi?
ally ta Increase the consumption of the des
Vplsed staple. As a matter of fact, less cotton
will be shipped from India during the ensuing
than in the past twelve months, simply be?
cause the country has been swept ot all Bar
plus stocks.
This circumstance, together with the fact
that the visible supply ls 600,000 bales less than
at this time last year, will go a longway to?
wards neutralizing the Influence of an Increase
of 1,000,000 bales in the American crop.
To give an increase or 1.000,000 balee, the
yield wllrnave to reach 4,000.000 bales, where?
as, as indicated by the official data given above,
the probability is that the yield will not be
more than 3,750,000 to 3,8uO,0O0 bales.

Mr. Greeley leaves here to-morrow to go to
Vermont, to deliver an address on agriculture,
at the State Fair. He will heap coals or fire
on those Republicans who did not come ont
and vote lor his candidates for State officers
last Tuesday. After that, Mr. Greeley will
leave the hide-bound Vermonters, and go
where he advises all young men who can bor?
row a hundred dollars to go-West. He will de?
liver agricultural addresses, and, If tho people
insist upon it, talk a little about politice. There
is a great Industrial exposition at Cincinnati,
and a visit irom him to it ls not Inappropriate.
It ls intimated that if Maine goes heavily
against us to-day, showing that the Liberal
movement has not made much progress la the
East, Mr. Greeley will take the stump In
Pennsylvania and Indiana until the October
election. As be Is one ot the most persuasive
speakers in America, he would, doubtless,
help the cause along by these public appear?
ances. It Is not uuusiia', as you will recollect,
1er Presidential candidates to advocate their
own claim* to election. Douglas stumped the
country In 1600. and Lincoln. Breckinridgeund
Bell also mude speeches.. Four years ago, Mr.
Seymour spoke in his own behalt In the North?

The Bourbon aff ilr at Louisville does not.
appear to have mad.* thc slightest impression

I had the curiosity to look through the morn?
ing papers to-day to see If the lutert-st was
kept up, and in two I saw DO allusion to it,
and lu Hie others only unimportant para?
graphs. It was a melancholy fizzle, cud yet I
would not be surprised to see un attempt by
the Jimmy O'Brien faction to get up an electo?
ral ticket In this Stare. A committee irom the
Louisville Convention, beaded by tho ex Rev.
Chauncey C. Burr, will walt on Mr. O'Conor
to-morrow with an appeal to . .stlok," but I am
told the crotchety old lawyer is obstinately
bent on relualng. j .
The conduct of Mr. John Quincy Adams ls a
surprise and disappointment to those wbcf
have been his Irlends. Hr. Adams hos been
one ol the loremost advocates of the policy of
taking a Liberal Republican candidate to beat
Grant. He wrote a long and strong letter to
a Mr. Kelsey, last November, in lavor of the
so-called "passive policy," and it was pub?
lished throughout the country. That he should
"go back" on his Democratic friends In Massa?
chusetts, and his record, and attempt to de?
stroy the regular organization of the party
In the interest of Grant, is to be accounted
for only on the supposition that be 1B mortally
offended because the Cincinnati Convention
did not nominate his lather for President. It
ls also reported, the rumor coming from a
Radical source, that Charles Francis Adams
has expressed his preference for Grant. He
fully committed himself to ilw Liberal move?
ment In the letter he wrote to Mr. Wells when
he expected thut ids n*mc would go before
Ihe Cincinnati Convention. I fcur that
wounded vanity M ut the bottom ol these ec?
centricities of the Adams 1 willy. They will
certainly lose the confidence and resp ct. of
the country If they show that they rom i-ii all
the petty spites and meannesses ol ordinary

The reagneslumlheory "about tue sun ls be?

been warmer here than Tophet. The cool
spell of last week broke np business ut. the
waterlog places, and families ?ere coming
back to town In great numbers, ami they dud
themselves now in the worst weather ol the

increasing power ol' the sun's heat. Accord?

autumn, and the beginning of the home

religious duties was premature.

the style of ihe politicians who are getting
serenades here every night, remains to be
Been. Marlo has beeu greatly feled since he

tion the other night. He makes himself quite
at home among the Americans, and has a
great deal to say about the wonderful pro?
gress of the country since he was here six?

St. Andrew's Day, November 30, is to be a

There will be a turn-out of all the Scotch socie?

the streets to Central Park, where the statue
of Slr Walter Scott, which has Just arrived
Irom Glasgow, will be unveiled. There will
also be a banquet at Delmonico's In ihe eve?
ning. The Blaine ls of bronze, heroic size,
and an exact counterpart of that in Edin?
burgh. Slr Waiter ls represented In a sitting
posture, clad In the plaid, with hlu dog at his
feet. Central Park ls being rapidly covered
with similar works of art. A proposition has
been made In one of the journals that resi?
dents ot New York who are natives of other
Stales shall club togeiher by States and pro?
cure statues of their representative men for
the adornment of the great park. Thus South
Carolinians could cou r bute Calhoun, Ken?
tuckian? Clay, Virginians Jefferson, Tennes
seeans Jackson. Texans Sam Houston, <fce.
Then the ?esthetically Inclined might give the
park statues ol Longfellow, Booth, Powers,
Blerstadt and other art worthies. Io time,
probably, these suggestions will receive seri?

THE GAUGING OF LIQUORS.
A Grievance from Greenville and Ils
Remedy.
TO THE EDITOR OFTHE NEWS.
For some time tbe merchants of Greenville
and other places, who deal .in whiskey, molas?
ses and other liquids, bave been the sufferers
of impositions which ought-not to be tolerated
any longer, otherwise those merchants will be
compelled lo look to another channel to ob?
tain their goods. Io fact, those liquids,
bought on order in Charleston from merchants
who Import ih>m from New York and otner
placeB, are sent here without having been re
gauged In Charleston, so that the leaking or
tapping that have taken place between New
York and Charleston, being not ascertained
by sworn city gaugers, ara, of coarse, the loss
of the Greenville and other country merchants,
who pay lor the quantity gauged In the North.
Is there any city ordinance or regulation
In Charleston, having reference to the gang?
ing of liquids before they are sent to the
country, or is it on account of the neglect of
the Charleston merchants or any other cause
that we country merchants have to suffer for
the difference In the quantity ot the liquids
sent here from Charleston ?
Hoping that you will give room in your col?
umns to our grievances, and give your read?
ers information on this matter,
We remain, respectfully,
MANY MERCHANTS.
Greenville, S. C., 1872. i
Liquors are usually sold In Charleston ac?
cording to the New York ganglog. There ls
no elly ordinance compelling the reganglng
ot'liquors In Charleston, but the merchant
buying bas the right, in all cases, to demand
that the liquor be regauged, and the merchant
selling is bound to comply, the expense of
gauging falling always opon the latter.
WONDER CAVE.
1 . !
A. Startling Phenomenon In Wayne
County, rcnncBHee- Reported Discov?
ery of Ice that Never Melts.
[From the Nashville Banner. September a.] j
The following curions,-perhaps sensational,
statements concerning Che discovery In a cave,
In Perry County, of a remarkable phenomenon
connected with rock formations are made by
tbe correspondent of a Waynesboro' paper, In
a letter dated the 21st ultimo, from L'nden, in
Perry County. One ol the gentlemen cited Ia
the correspondence as endorsing the state?
ments made (T. M. Brasbear) is well known
in this city, where he made many acquaint?
ances during the seseloajpf the Legislature, lo
which he served as a-member of the lower
house. The following ls the letter:
LINDEN, PJSRRY COUNTY, TENN., ?
August 21.1872. j '
There has been perhaps the most remark?
able and extraordinary discovery made la our
county that you or any one else ever beard of.
Some ten days since T.'M. Braahear, our late
representative from this county. Major J. L.
Webb, our excellent sheriff, and J. P. Wilsou,
our efficient tax oollcctor, were together a?
Major Webb's, and tor recreation took a walk
In und around his farm; when coming io the
bills on the south of M dor .Webb's place they
approached the mouth oj-a cave la the side ot
the hill, from which In wet weather a stream'
of water usually flowed... Feeling very warm,
they concluded tu enter ?he cave io cool off a
little, and upon enterlngMhe mouth ot the cave
were surprised at the unusual coldness that
pervaded the cavern.. Thinking lhere must be
somethlug in the dark recesses ot the cavern
to produce such unusual coldness .In the at?
mosphere, they coucludid to penetrate Billi,
lurtht-r into the cave loise lt they could not
ciear up the mystery. Mocoring lights, they
entered the cave, and altor -proceeding some
seventj-flTtrttiet, troon ??t^f?? wmjU tuoy
beheld to their astonishment the whole Inte?
rior of the cave festooned with the most beuti
11tul stalagmites the eye of maa ever beheld.
Holding up their lights, they gazed upon ihe
beautiful sight with pleased astonishment, and
upon a nearer approach they found ihe stalag?
mites to resemole the hardest, clearest ice,
and cold as ihe touch of the Ice-king him?
self. Becoming by thia time chilled through
with the coldness ol the place, each of the
gentlemen broke off a lump ot this strange
wonder and stuned to return. Before reach?
ing the mouth of the cavern their hands were
so chilled they could scarcely hold the strange
substance, and upon reaching in? outer air
they laid lt down upon the ground, thinking
lt would soon acquire the temp?rature of the
atmosphere. After resting Alleen or twenty
minutes, they started lor Mr. Webo's resi?
dence, each carrying, aa best he might, lils
lump of rock ice. for 1 know of no other name
by which to call it. Arriving at the house,
they placed the crystals un a table, and waited
patiently to see il it would melt, or even turn
warmer. Aller wailing some half hour, and
ll liding that it still retained Its former cold?
ness, one of ihe party suggested that they
should try lt in a pitcher of water. This was
I done, and io their infinite astonishment the
glass pitcher in which lt was placed was soon
covered on the outside with moisture, similar
to ibat produced by Ice. Not being yet satis?
fied, they concluded to drink of the come?is,
and the question now was as to who should
give ihe first trial. Mr. Wilson at length said
as he was the youngest, and con seque m ly the
stoutest, he would try It, and he thereupon
drank a hearty draught, and declaren it
equal to the best Ice-water. The
omer two gentlemen also drank of the
water, and Mr. Brae h ear assured Un writer
ot this that lt was equal lo the best Ice water.
At dinner they irleo it with milk, and lt soon
made Mrs. Webb's excellent buttermilk as
cold almost os ice itself. It produced the
same effect upon butter as ice, and still re?
tained Its original frigidity. A number of
persons have since visited this wonderiul
cave and carried off portions of this rock,
which they are using lor ail the purposes of
ice, and lt sustains no diminution in bulk or
loss ol' cold ness. Strange and Improbable as
this may Beem, yet it can be certified to by
numbers of our best citizens. Dr. Black is
using it in his practice, and lt proves an ex?
cellent, amesibelle, having the same effect as
Ice when mixed with salr. Mr. Thomas
French and Colonel Waggoner, hotel-keepers
In Linden, used lt ia their hotels during
court week to the astonishment of their
guests. Specimens will be sent lo our State
geologists for analyzation. If any one doubts
the above plain statement of simple lacis they
are relerred to T. M. Braahear, G. H. Nixon,
John A. Pitts, Major John L. Webb, Joseph
Wilson, Thomas French, Captain Easiey, pro?
fessor in the academy, and a number of others
of the most reliable men lu our county.
Respectfully, H. A. S.
P. 8.-I will send you a box of this rock ice
by the first conveyance to your place.

tala W. J. M'Kerall, at Marion, was entered,
and over six hundred pounds of seed-cottou
taken from lt.
-Mr. A. H. Brown, who lives nt Mars Bind
Ferry, met with a serious lossou Sunday night
last. On that night his store, containing,
among other things, about twenty or thirty
bales of cotton, was burned. The loss is quite
heavy, possibly about five thousand dollars.
It ia thought to be the work ot an Incendiary.
-A Greeley and Brown club hus been or?
ganized in the Mill Creek neighborhood, lo
Richland County, within the last day or two.
The officers are : Colonel H. L Caughman,
presiden!; James Burnside, vlce-presidenl; C.

and the lints are being dally Increased.
-The Marion Crescent says: "We have little

opening remarkably laBt, and that the yield
will be much less than originally thought.
The caterpillar appeared In Colonel W. W.
Durant's held over two weeks ago, and we
have since heard ol Diem ia other places.
They will hurt late cotton, but early cotton
will not be Injured-not much at a'l events."

Colonel Jones waa a nativo of Laurens, where
he was highly esteesTed. He held several
offices la that county in the course of his life,
and was very popular with all classes.

Mr. Jolinaon's Attempt to Swim Aero?
the Brltlnh Channel.
-
On the 24th of August Mr. J. B. Johnson,
"the here ol London Bridge and the cbam- J
pion, pf the world," attempted a highly re-!
markable feat. He undertook to swim across j
the Siralta ol Dover, ind, although he did not I
actually accomplish that herculean task, he
did so much, we be leve, as to distance all
that ls authentically i nowa ever to have been
done by a swimmer ia open sea before, aod to
lead some sanguine f oula to believe that his
undertaking may yet prove to be within the
limits ol possibility.
The conditions ol hit. Johnson's effort were
that the was to swim, unaided by any appli?
ance of wuatever surr, from Dover to Calais;
that he was to compass ihe distance within
twelve hours, without leaving tbe water, and
that be was to have refreshments, or ' 'st imu
lanie," ad libitum, irom a steamer which ac
companied bim. Now the distance from
Dover to the nearei t point on the French
coast Is about nineteen .miles; but the tides I
run crosswise in sucli a .way tnat lt was oom
puted the swimmer most really describe a I
i ne ol from thirty tc forty miles. Of course, I
he wpuld not swim the full distance, since
the sweep of the sea would carry him a great.1
part of ic. Ho Utile vas lt believed, wonder
lui swimmer aa Job moa ls, that he con id ml
fl I his self-imposed trek, that a bet was made,
iinLeede of ?1000 to ?3000 that ' he would tall,
and the betting in London was one hundred j
lo one against him. os the day he started.
lethe sequel. Johnson swam a Utile over
seven miles within an hour and ? five minutes; I
.and tben, by direction ol the attendant Burg*
eon, be ceased to wira, and was taken on I
board the steamer. Tne a urge on said John
ton's circulation wi,s beginning to fall, and I
that lt would be dangerous for bim to keep on. I
Johnson, for his putt, owned that nts legs
"felt numb," but denied feeling any sensation
of fatigue. The spectators say thal h? swam I
the last, mlle with atout the same vigor us the I
flrsr. There was a heavy, "lump:" eeo, and, I
owing to some difficulty with ihe pier auihori-1
ties at Dover, lhere was some delay in getting
off at ihe time appointed. ? lt was claimed that
this made a difference,, to the. disadvantage of
Johnson, as regard?) time and currents; and
that had ihe sea been smooth and the tide and
currents according to calculation, ibesmlmmer
would have perlorm;d tn? wonderful exploit be
essayed. Wnut be did was something less than
the three leagues, or niue mles, of Dumas a he? I
?ro lo "Monte Christo;1' but Johnson Iras shown
that the achievement of Dantes ls at least lo
be accepted as conceivable. Byron ojainie, it I
.will be remembered, to haye swam four
miles In crossing tba Hellespont-a teat per
lor med by him lo common with leander and
Mr. Ekeuhead-although ihe width of the es-1
mary ls but a mlle. Toe distance was oom
puted by the people on boord the Salsette fri
gate, and probably was as great aa the peet I
claim?. Our own Franklin is said, in smooth
and tldeless water, to have done better than I
this; and Edgar Pee declared that be had I
swam'seven miles and a halt-Irom Richmond
to Warwick-against.a tide running.from two
io turee miles an hour. John Wilson, of
."Mago." bas left records attesting marvellous
'deens of his own ol an equal er supqrtor. qhar
ucter. We Imagine, ho weaver, that Johnson's
performance ot a clean seven miles In sixty
minutes, in a ro Un; sea, ls about as -great A J
Pour de force In the way of natation as can j
lal riv be called historical. :
