The following is from the New York Tribune, of the 7th inst: Notwithstanding the unsettled con -dition of the country, many Northern farmers went South in the early months of this year for the purpose of planting cotton. Many others, per? suaded that great inducements vere offered for the production of a cotton crop would have accompanied their neighbors, but found it impossible to make the necessary arrangements in time for the planting seasons. Others still would gladly have gone, but were restrained for want of definite know- j ledge as to localities most congenial to Northern settlers. Those who went, and who used reasonable judgment i m selecting and stocking plantations, j send us encouraging reports. The inducements to embark in the j enterprise remain about the same as | at the beginning of thc your. There : is no immediate prospect of a material j decline in the price of cotton, and ! there is much good land ready for ' the plough, lying uncultivated, await- ! ing capital and labor to make it, pro-1 ? ductive. The Southern planters have always been short of capital, and. as a 'rule, lived at least one year in I advance of their incomes. The rebel lion overtook them deeply indebted tb tho merchants, and tho close of ! the war involved bot.ht planter and ' factor in bankruptcy, from which j they can be released only by the in-1 troduction of means from abroad. Most plantations not now under cul- : tivation are destitute of everything but good soil and an abundance of timben The requirements to convert these to use are, first of all capital at lease $5,000 with which to procure and support ten laborers, six mules, three ploughs, two wagons and small implements in sets of half dozen each, for every hundred acres of land to be '< cultivated. In possession of the money, the planter can procure all ; the other articles in the South. There is no scarcity of labor; enterprising ! merchants have shipped to every ; Southern city, and considerable vii- ; luge plantation supplies of every kind, , and droves of m.1 les, from Texas and > the West, are offered for Hale in every i County and Parish where lhere are money to buy them. In the Southern States, as else? where, some sections aro settled by intelligent, industrious, law-abiding people, who would gladly welcome men from thc North who como with capital and industry to cultivate the j soil. Other portions of the country j ore settled by ignorant, sell-conceit? ed braggarts, who affect to despise ! honest labor, and are hostile to any and all who by precept or example .tun counter to their own narrow notions. It will not bo difficult to pick ont the desirable communities; they are found in almost every one Qf the cotton States, and will readily -T be distinguished by an iptelligeut agent who may be sent out to select a place for the formation of a settle? ment. Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas are settled in all their most fertile and desirable tracts by a hospitablo people. In Central '> Alabama, from Montgomery to, Qain^yjlle on the Tombigbee Uiver, j is one ol*these localities, where both the people and the soil wonld be ac ceptablo. On Bayou Boeu?, in Louisi? ana, and, if the overflow can be pre? vented on Bayous De Glaze and Teche, and in tho Bed Biver coun 1 try, from Alexandria to the Texas Une, the inhabitants WOUJU rejoice at the opportunity to revive ttie pros? perity of their beautiful garden-like oouotries by the aid of Northern capital and skill. The time for making the necessary negotiations and arrangements for the occupation of theso laud? is at hand. The planter should be on his plantation with his laboring force and implements before the first of Dec-em ber. A good crop of cotton is almost always insured by early planting. lu tho localities just named, corn may be planted in February, and cotton as early as tho middle of March, and should certainly be rn the ground before the middle of April. There is also much work, to be done in the way of ditching, fencing, and repair? ing of buildings, roads and bridges, before the planting season begins. Trouble, expense and labor will be saved by an early beginning. There is, perhaps, no community in the Southern States wherein the families of Northern men will be speedily welcomed into society. It is, therefore, desirable to form settle? ments, and for this purpose cgents should be sent out immediately with authority to select and contract for thc lease or purchase of the required number of acres for n settlement of half a dozsn or more families. Thus the new settlers will be able to regu? late their school and church affairs to their own liking, and to secure many other privileges that could not be at? tained by individual effort. The neighbors would also nerve as a de? fence to each other, and by the ex? ample of their prosperity would in? duce the old citizens to court their society. Since slavery has been abolished, it is agreed by all classes that the climate of even the lower counties of the Gulf States is not inhospitable to white labor, and that all the produce hither? to grown in the South can be success? fully and profitably cultivated by any race or people that will industriously upply itself to the work. SANTA ANNA.-This personage arrived in New York on Wednesday last. The Herald, says: As soon ns the General landed, und after exchanging salutations with the friends who were there to welcome him on bis arrivai, he and his suite drove to the splendid mansion in Weat Twenty-Eighth Street, near Fifth Avenue, carefully prepared for the accommodation and comfort of tho General. This house is tastefully furnished and is provided with all tile necessary appliances which modern convenience has invented. "Marble statues, paint? ings, and elegant mirrors greet the eye of the visitor in its principal rooms, while on the ceilings of the parlors and dining rooms are seen chaste frescoes which well accord with tlie color of the furniture. There is also a well selected library in the house. The -'Dead Duck" is in ecstacies over the last great effort of the im? mortal Underwood. He quacks and1, flaps his wings o^ er this savory pro? duction as if he had discovered a mud-puddle full of dead tadpoles. He exalts the horn of that "able jurist," und commends his "bold de? nunciation of tho impertinent traitors of Richmond." The secret of ?ill this fulsome flat? tery Ls thoroughly understood by the initiated. . Finney hopes that, before Underwood is done, he will manage to hang somebody, a* d as tho Chroni? cle is staggering :d>o t on ita last legs, the "Dead Duck" .vants to bo ap? pointed hangsman to tho '-able jurist," whom he ludicrous]}- describes as "imperiling his life" in abusing Richmond, it>> inhabitants and press.

PROSPECT or CHEAP COAL. -The large shipments of coal from the mining regions - of Pennsylvania justify the hope that fuel will soon experience a further reduction in price.
