COLUMBIA. Th.usd.ay Horning-, October 25. lbb<J. Breech o? K;t?t!>. Tho New York limes must have st mortal spite against Wade Hampton, for Lis recent speech has furnished that journal with denunciator edi torinls for its last live or six issues, all tending to show that the ?Southern people aro not yet subdued, i'ud thai the final purifying process is only lo be found in forcing them to adopt! tho constitutional amendment. it; even twists (Jen. Hampton's com-j mendatory remarks*about the freed-: men into a sort of evidence thar thc y shoidd have the right of suffrage. Anything and everything to advance the interests of the radical party. But thc Times insists that there has been no breach ol' faith on the part of the Government towards the Southern States. lt says: "We agree that the Government stands pledged to recognize tuc South? ern States as in the Union: but tin pledge was given to the loyal States, and not to those in rebellion, lt is <l:ie to those who fought the battle of i the Union, that the pledge should be redeemed. And if the South bad abandoned thc contest when these declarations were first made, it would have had a strong claim to immediate . cognition and restoration to power. !;-it it scouted and scorned them, and it continued the war just as ' ng as ? could keep an army in the field.'' Was there ever such sophistry used by the most unscrupulous politician? The pledge was only given to the loyal States, and not to those in re? bellion! The Times ignores the fact that President. Johnson, invested with the power, did tender to the States lately in rebellion certain terms and conditions, on the compliance with which they would be restored to their rights aud privileges in the Uniou. Tliey accepted and faithfully carried ont every condition, so much so that the Executive was perfectly satisfied and declared them entitled to their representation in Congress, lint the party of which the Times is now a principal organ has obstructed the work of reconstruction, virtually de? claring that thc South had not been punished enough. How supremely ridiculous then, in the face of these facts, appeared the following imp .ed threat of the Times: "If thc Southern people propose to push their claims in the temper evinced, and on the grounds put forth by Wade Hampton in the speech referred to, they will find their contest hopeless. No such claims will be conceded for a moment. Their complaints of a breach of faith are utterly without foundation." The Southern people are satisfied that any claims for justice ar the hands of the radicals will not be con? sidered, and that any contest with them to regain their rights would in? deed be hopeless. They ave content, therefore, to live as they are, and bide their time, rather than to sub? mit to further exactions from the Times' party. THE ROTHSCHILDS ANI> THE COTTON CROP.-The Rothschilds recently wrote to this country for as correct a statement as could possibly be pro? cured of the probable yield of cotton in the Southern States during the year 1866, ana received in reilly, from a distinguished planter, that it would not exceed, "under the most favorable circumstances, over 1,200, 000 bales." The gentleman who wrote this has since, in view of the depre? dations of the worms, havoc from rust and scarcity of labor to pick out the staple, reduced his estimate to 1,000.000 bales, of which amount he does not believe there will be 200,000 l?ales available for export. Considerable excitement has been cleated in New Orleans over tho dis? covery by detectives of about 7,OOO stand of arms and four pieces of artillery; which they claim belong to "rebel" associations, but which, in reality, ate thc property of the Knights of Arabia, who tire believed to bo fitting out an expedition. - While the cotton, sugar and mo? lasses crops of Louisiana will be sad f? lures, it is consoling to know that the rice crop will be good. The papers of that State assure ns that it will be larger than ever known before. The "Memphis Argus, in stating that one man told another to "go to ii-1," says "ho invited him to the place so kindly prepared by Provi? dence for the reception of such cha? racters ns Gov. Brownlow and 'he police shysters of Memphis." The Louisville Courier say* tlial "New England : a!?. ? nation." and : it is amazingly true, ?judge From tvoeni political developments, lt ?s tim most surprising phenomenon h: j the politics of the day, timi :? .??..at and intelligent people, inhabiting and '? .]< velopinnr the great .main growing region of the United States, should ? be led b.\ tin- nose by New England monufactnrers, who omit no occasion to take every cent out of the pockets of the grain producers, in thc shape of high '.arin's, heavy taxation. &c. [n fact, .New langland bas grbwn fat and rich from levies, iii the shape of taxation, on every agricultural State in the Union. There was a tariff bill framed .it the last session of Congress, with peculiar n fereuee to New England ? interests, but this measure was so ? palpably antagonistic to the interests of the Western States, that unprinci? pled and reckless tis the Jacobins are," the membfTs of Congress from those States dared not carry it before their people nini challenge a verdict upon it. ti was, therefore, postponed until next, session, when, in all probabili? ty, it will become a law. Then, perhaps, the people ol' the West will be able to see the addi? tional burthen of taxation which will beimposed upon them, ?iud how much it will cost i<> support the Jacobin party to which thc country is now : subjected. They will then be able to understand th." object ol' the exclu . sion of thc Southern States. But, in their zeal to pu nish, the South, thc people of the West have forgot ten : that their interests and those of the : Southern people are identical, and that wi ie.1 ever policy injuriously af . feels the South, must, necessarily j prove quito as detrimental to them selves, lt is never too late to learn, and they may learn this lesson by thr next session of Congress. Tlic !4tj;si<? arc Brightening. Tho Richmond Timen is actually ; growing hopeful. Tn its issue o' j Tuesday, it says: Advices from the North indicate tit abatement, of radical violence. As i< ; always the casi? subsequent to olee ; tions, the unity of the triumphant party is threatened, because of those ! differences upon certain questions, which are ignored during the canvas! in order to maintain the harmony ne? cessary to succe Tim recent victories of tin1 radicals seriously menace their party unity Many ot' thc politicians who have as : sailed the Presidential policy o Southern rehabilitation, and givei j their cot dial co-operation to the plat ! of Congress, are men ot modera ti views, when compared With Brown low. Stevens ?un? Wendell Phillips Tin- brutal disposition of the latte! towards thc South is utterly revolting to theni, and there cannot possibly be even an approach to unanimity ii the adoption of any general policy Sumner, Butler and Stevens will in sist upon confiscations, negro sui frage, the hanging of Mr. "Davis ?m. the impeachment of Mr. Johnson The more moderate men will favoi none of these mud projects; tin extreme radicals will be content wit! nothing short of the thorough adop tion and execution of their violen views; ?uni it is simph? impossibli for them to command the strength ii Congress and the popular sympathy necessary tn their plans. li i.-. reasonably clear that Mr Johnson does not fear impeachment and that really he has no occasion ff) snell apprehensions. Ju addition ti the fact that his enemies will be ut terly unable to establish acose agains him, sufficiently strong to justit"; such tm extreme measure, even wit! tiie radical masses, the length of timi consumed in debate upon the propo sition of impeachment, the impa tience of tuc people under constan agitations, assisted by the calm am dignified attitude of the South, wi] consummate the incipient split in th radical organization. There is even ; probability that the attempt to fore the "constitutionalamendment" upoi us will be abandoned. The Northen people, seeing in our unresisting atti I tnde of ' patience under accumulate! suffering and provocation, a sufficien refutation of the radical charge against us, of tt belligerent and rt bellions disposition, will cease to b urgent for "guarantees" of our faith ful allegiance in the shape of a bas surrender of our manhood, and a: odions proscription of our most omi neut f.'llow-citizens. Thc Mobile Gazette reflects severel on the new instance given by Amer: . can ship-masters of their total hick < that professional honor which foi morly caused tho captain and officer of a ship in distress to be the last t abandon lu i.

For years past, thc news from the Easl has come freighted with accounts of disturbances in the Celestial Empire, and we much fear that, for years to come, the rat-eaters nf Cliina will have the same cause of i complaint about intelligence from : their antipodes, the United States. i The Chinese rebellion reminds us of . a vast coal-bed on tire, which keeps i burning for ages, and. though smo? thered and put out in one place, ? almost instantaneously breaks out in : another. . ?..

He wrote quite a sei ! sible letter, giving an account of hi I tri]?, to the Xew York Times, and sai that what the South wanted was rei | and peace. This is exactly what th ; radicals are determined we shall n< , have if they can help it. and for tin purpose are keeping up a "rebellion on paper, in spite of the actual stat i of affairs. They want office, the want money, and hence the Amer : eau ..rebellion," so-called, bids fa to rival the one in (Jinna.

Xor FRIGHTENED.-The Washiuj ton correspondent of the Richmon K.C(iminer says: ..Tho President was told, the otb day, by one of the most eminent the conservative Republican Sen tors, that he would be impeach? and removed: that nothing at h command could now prevent it. Tl ; President could not see it. He tali politics freely with all comers, wi are chiefly office-beggars and syc pliants, and are interested in decei ; ing him.

' This is an admission that the Pr j sident has not been disturbed by t threats of impeachment which ha emanated from "Wendell Phillip They may pursue him with unfla ' ging malice and hatred, but if ' i maintains his firmness and still fi ! thor liberalizes the policy of the a ministration, he will defeat the n ; chinations of personal and politic foes, as well as redeem the counti -? ?? ? ? PRESIDENT. JOHNSON'S PURPOSE. ? Horace Maynard, of Tennessee, i marked, in the course of a stur I speech the other ?lay: He was of the opinion that t result of the elections would have i tendency to modify the Presiden feelings, and that he had confider that, henceforth, Congress and t President would get along more li moniously. Gov. Brownlow, w was sitting near, was asketl his o nion. He saiil he differed materia with Maynard. He knew Johns well, had fought him for forty yea and he believed be would go on uti ' he would be hanged ! "Hanged!" That is the way t radicals are talking. STARTMNO STORY OF INDIAN MI DEUS. -A letter from Helena, M< tana, says that ?tore limn three th sand emigrants have been murdo by the Indians this season. 'J whole route through the Territory strewn with fresh graves. ?\ COUtl'Mltt . Tho Now Orleans Picayune has tito following contrast between tho two sections of thu country: Tjookiug through a largo number of Northern and Western papers yes I terday, we wove forcibly struck with , ! the bitterness ?>f spirit and virulem ' with which the political quarrel there ? existing is being carrie l <>n. Every j State and town and village appears to be divided among themselves. In i every community, there are two or j more newspaper '.organs'' peeking j away at each other, as if they would ? pick each other's eyes out. We sup? pose these political "organs"' repre I sent each a portion of thc community : for which they are printed, from j which we infer that thc people in the ! streets aro, also, daily politically piek ? ing each other's eyes out. What it is I ali to lead to, we did not stop to in? quire, it a satisfactory opinion were i possible. The dark veil of the future 1 hides it from us. We dropped the 1 papers in disgust, and turning home j ward, congratulated ourselves on the ? blessings of peace-not solely exemp i tion from the ruthless ravages of war, . but from flu- distractions and violent words of political strife. We are accustomed to complain : that we have, no voice in theaaminis tratiou of the Government to which ; we aro subject, that we aie taxed 1 without representation, ami sorely [ troubled wit li agents, and schemers, i and adventurers, the chances of war ' have sent among us, to thc serious j detriment of business and tho disgust I of all good people; but even this, bad i as it is, is better than that eternal i wrangling of which the reckless and I Unscrupulous publications before us I give evidence. We, at least, are una? nimous in sentiment, and ?Jinve no ' political quarrel on our hands. ?tm! I forthat ought to lie thankful. lt is ? a nmst unprofitable business, as thc political agitators of the North will yet lind out. li; a word, as compared with the other section of the Union, we ?ire enjoying the most profound j quietude and peace. While i hey an ; wrangling over questions whicl scarcely concern them, we <<4' tia i South, whom they do concern, an I quietly attending to cir business. f ? is a most anomalous state of things but if is bettor -so than to have tin wrangling among ourselves. Inesti mableare tho blessings of peace whicl , we enjoy, as compared with that, and in close attention to business alone may we long continue to cultivate am enjoy it. I Ul port? Ul Legal Occisi?n. A decision has been given in tb Probate Court of Sumter County Alabama, embracing tin- following points: I. The ordinance of the State Con volition, ami the different acts of tin Legislature, for the protection of ad ministrators, executors and guardi ans, are valid: and investments mad by them in good faith, in tho lat Confederate, securities, under colo of law. will now lu- upheld: tue los failing upon the estate, and not uno: snell executors, administrators guardian.-. li.

Where rights had already bee vested before tho surrender, or ad have been performed under the law then in force, tho public policy whic existed at. the time such rights ;u crued, and not present publie policj will control the question of their h gnlity; and loyalty to the Natiom Government does not require inte: j terence with such past transaction: j if honestly made, and in accordanc with the laws of the State at th i time. 5.

Deplorable Condition nf (he \i croir-A Kc a rfu I Picture. The following i.-- ?tn extract from ? lotter from North Carolin? t<. thc Now Haven liegisfer: Th?.' ?Southern country i.s in nu w ful condition. It must be seen to bo believed- -the eorn crop, their princi? pal article of food, having failed this season, on account of tho drought. 1 lt is expected starvation must take place in some sections before n ex fi I spring. Corn is now selling for$2 So per bushel, anil bacon at twenty-live cents per pound. Cod knows the radicals need not wish the Southern I people to suffer mor,' than they are ? suffering. If they were barbarians, 1 they could not treat them worse than j they wish to. The negroes have n<> hesitation in saying they were better oft' as slaves than now. 11 is evident to a candid' mind they have never been worked very hard, from the fact that, since their freedom, they have rented lauds from their former owners, und have eaten, during the time they have been raising their crops, more than they i h;ive raised altogether. This does not leave a very wide margin for them to ' live on from harvest to harvest, and yet they claim tn have worked a "heap" harder than ?ver before. They have no conception in managing for themselves. They deserve compassion. They have been robbed from good homes, for an idea, to wandin-like; vagabonds broad-east through thc country to starve. This same gentleman, Dr. ! Tate, in conversation, remarked, with i all the warmth, of a parent, "What : can we do for our poor negroes? We are unable to assist them, having lost ! all; and yet- we would willingly share with them rallier than have them ; stiffer, but we have nothing left io ! divide-they must starve." This is really their condition. I When the war closed, the darkies got, : it in their heads they could not bc ' free unless they left their old homes under thc impression given them . by those Abolition d?magogues. The 1 novelty of freedom has passed--the I reality stares them in the face. He : has no one to feed,-clothe and give : him any little notion he may fancy, las formerly. They begin to realize fully their condition, a hungry sto? mach being a .faithful monitor; and ; as soon as they need anything, they ! put back to their old masters, beg ? ging for shelter and something to eat. They cannot refuse them, so they lay around their old homes until their former owners are compelled, for their ow n protection, to tell them to i g<> away. ANNA DICKINSON.-A correspond? ent of the Louisville Courier luis been I to hear Anna Dickinson, tn Boston. He says: I went to see and hear Anna Dick? inson delivef her new lecture, which sin; calls "The Rejected Stone." but I was unable to discover the relation which the lecture held to its title, but Anna is a sprightly little cuss, and has a voice that would charm the birds oh' flu-bushes. Cortile benefit of your fair correspondent, "Keu tuekienne," 1 will describo lier cos? tume in full: Straw-colored silk, with black lace trimmings around her neck and down to the waist in front; diamond on left hand linger; hair short and bushy. Taken as a whole, ; she was nice and pretty. I don't care if she did pet Fred. Douglass, she is pr< tty, by jingo! She hurled her re ' jeeted boulder at the audience as gracefully as David slung his little . smooth stone at the giant. She was ' severe on President Johnson, com? paring him to all the tyrants of any standing in ancient or modem his? tory. She told about Dick Taylor's making Union men dig their own graves, and about Burl) Blackburn's ' shooting two little Union girls. She ; brought np the God-send for the j radicals-the New Orleans riots-also, ! the Memphis massacre of school j marms. In short, she lied like the devil. She vindicated Congress, and pointed ont the only mode of recon , strnction, etc., etc. TRADE BETWEEN ENOIIA.NI) AND I NORTH AMERICA.-Sir Stafford North ' cote, who presided at the Liverpool ; banquet in honor of the layers of j the Atlantic cable, gave the following important statistics: The annual value of our imports ' and exports to North America, in ; eluding the ^United States and the I British colonists, amounts to some i thing like ?100,000,000 ($500,000, 000) per annum ; and if wt; take the average time of passage between this , country and America at about fonr ; teen days, we may say that something 1 like .?-.,000,000 (?20,000,000) worth of property are, at any given mo? ment, float between Great Britain : and America. On an average, 900, j 000,0(10 cwt. of wheat or wheat flour I is imported into this country from America, or about 35 per cent, of the ; whole of the wheat and wheat flour I brought from abroad, while importa \ tions of raw cotton used formerly to I be 80 per cent., and are now some? thing short of 20 per cent. Large manufactories are now busy at Louisville, Ky., furnishing bag? ging, rope, plows, wagons, brooms, etc. The clay-pipe factory of S. lb Shephard is so extensive that otto are made for one dollar. ?

The feeling in Baltimore yesterday was intense. The ; radicals were firm, quiet and wholly rc ? solved. They have possession of the field, i and in'.eud to keepit at all hazards. They j will never yield it to rebels and traitors, j The plots nf these Litter are hardly con ) coaled and their "exultation provea that i the revolutionary policy in the celebrated Ledger despatch is carefully cherished, and I only requires a fitting opportunity to bc ; announced and perfected. That policy is i daily advocated by thc organ of Thomas ! Swann, the Baltimore Gazette, as it is by I such coppe rhead papers as the Chicago j Times. Though the despatch sent to the : Ledfjerhte been denied, the r?volu lion arv j policy it recommends hr s never been re ; {unbated hy tho man who denounces the I Congress ol tho United States as illegal j and unconstitutional. The Maryland pa? triots ar., right, therefore, in catting upon the loyal millions nf thc North to prepare to come to their rescue when the attempt is made to give them a specimen of ita op pressions and cruelties. They arc fully competent to take care of themselves^ against all the relu is und traitors arouit.? them: but if it is resolved to employ force ! to bein these rebela amt traitors into con? trol, bat one remedy is left, and that is au : invocation tn the people of the country In reply tu this menace, ile- Washington Constitutional Cition say.--: Let Forney's array ol' traitors com.: mi: they will be incl as they deserve.
