We extract tho followiug account of thc proceedings of the Southern aid meeting held at Cooper Institute, on Friday evening hist, from the World, of the 2Gth: Thc meeting at the Cooper Insti? tute last evening was less successful asa more meeting than we had hoped; but it .will answer the only purpose which such a meeting can servo, that of calling general attention to the magnitude and urgency of Southern destitution. The groat famine in Ireland, which caused thc charity of New York and other American cities to gush forth in such abundant streams, near twenty years ago, had less in it to touch commiseration-to say-nothing of the fact that thc pre? sent sufferers arc our countrymen-, j There ?ire large areas in the States of! Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia, where the supply of food is insuffi? cient to last through tho month of March, and cases were recited, at the mcctiug, of families who have already passed successive days without food. Besides thc States mentioned, there is a wide-spread dearth in the two Carolinas, and thc whole area of des? titution comprises hundreds of thou? sands of square miles. Unless there is eai'ly relief, on a largo scale, tens of thousands of people must, before thc spring blossoms appear, die week? ly of starvation and of the diseases which follow in the irain of famine. The almost total failure of the corn - crop in several of the States, and the scantiness of the other crops, have brought to the doors of the South a spectre more hideous than tho car? nage of war. Respectable clorgyrueu are fleeing from their parishes on missions like that for which reluct? ant Jacob sent the son of his old age into Egypt. We call attention to thc pictures of distress presented to the meeting in the remarks of Rev. Mr. Bright and of Mr. Greeley. Henry Ward Beecher was the crack speaker of the evening, and we trust ' " wc may never again listen to a crack speaker or? a topic which appeals so touchingly to humane sympathies. We have heard Mr. Beecher on rnanj occasions, often with amusement, sometimes with admiration, but we never heard him make a speech so misplaced or so bad as that lust night. It seemed to bo his aim to use this opportunity to atone to thePlymouth congregation forthe Cleveland letter, which raised about his ears such a frenzied howl, last autumn. When they read his speech, in this morn? ing's papers, we trust they will be pacified. We could pardon his rant and his touches of low comedy, if the spirit of his remarks had not jarred On all the proprieties of the occasion. He began by a sneering allusion to the great "Union-saving" meeting at Castle Garden, some sixteen years ago, and proceeded to rake into the entrails of the defunct fugitive slave law, and tear open and expose all tho old political wounds mutually given and inflicted, between the North and the South, from that day to this. We noticed that Mayor Hoffman and some other gentlemen, on tho stage, very soon left, probably not perceiv? ing tho connection between such a harangue and the objects of thc meet? ing. Those who sat it through had an opportunity to discover that Mr. Beecher's chief argument for reliev? ing starvation in the South was, that it was a refined method of inflicting revenge! Ho seemed rather to rejoice, on the whole, and glorify Clod, that famine had overtaken tho South, partly because it afforded an op? portunity to practice what he was pleased to <a'l "Christian ven? geance," and partly because fa? mine is a necessary means, in the Providence of God, of compelling the lazy Southerners to learn habits of industry! Ho professed that he could not exactly see the reason oi this wise ordinance; but some othei divine mysteries, he .'-aid, are equally beyond his depth, which ho exempli fled by a string of illustrations. H( did not know, for instance, whj every apple blossom docs not grow t?. bo a ripe apple; he did not know whj all babies, "since they take thc: trouble to be boni," ?Io not grow to be men; and he quoted, as embody? ing some very deep philosophy, a scrap of tomb-stone literature, to the effect that a wonder-struck father, in composing an epitaph, did not sec what his child '-was begun for," since he "was so soon dono for." But such silly buffooneries were the loiist 'objectionable part of Mr. Beecher's remarks. His Plymouth Hock must be a cross between the wolf and the tiger, if they needed a labored argument to provo to them that it is consistent with their Aboli? tion principles to feed the starving ex-rcbels. So far ns Mr. Beecher's speech was argumentative at all, this was the sole drift of his argument. Mr. Greeley's remarks deserve moro commendation. In following Mr. Beecher, he began by adminis? tering a quiet and very neat rebuke; saying that there were so many topics which it was wise not to touch on such an occasion, -that he felt embarrassed lest he should say something which had betterbe omitted; and he spoke for tho first two or three minutes in amplification of this thought. He said nothing which would not have been appropriate if he had preceded Mr. Beecher instead of following him; but the garment was so perfect a lit that Mr. Beecher's quick eye diel not fail to catch his own image in th< smooth mirror. His whole face wai suffused by a prolonged blush. II? relieved himself by frequently whis pering something jocose to Genera' Anderson, who sat on the platform a: his side; but whether he was makin* fun of Mr. Greeley's manner, ol amusing himself with other topics the audience could not know. Mr. Greeley's remarks were full o genuiue charity and practical gooi sense. His shambling appearance and fiat, uncouth delivery, were rc deemed by au air of artless sincerity which secured the close attention o the meeting, and was more iinpressiv on such a subject than oratorical ac complishmeuts could have been, ha? Mr. Greeley possessed them. The ide on which his speech was framed-i an effusion so inartificial can be sait to bo framed at all-was, that th generous city of New York needs n other persuasion to charity than t be. made fully acquainted with th distress that required relief. Puttin out of view all the political question on which men differ, and every topi or remembrance which has any bri;' of irritation iu it, he gave a clear an pertinent explanation of the presei distressing condition of the Sout and of its causes, and pointed 01 the means of relief which have tl best chance to bo effective. Nothir. could be more considerate, human and judicious than Ids kind au clumsy remarks, which can grate c no man's sensibilities, either in tl North or the South, and which a sume that minds of ordinary gen rosity need no other incentive to r lieve their perishing countrynn than a faithful description of tl facts. ^ We trust the committee appoint last night will bo prompt and di gent, and that New York will set noble example, which other Nortbe cities will nobly emulate. TILE HESCLT.-The National Intet gencer says: The recovery of the gold premiv during the past week from thirty-o to thirty-seven, is probably owi to circumstances the reverse of thc which had occasioned its previc rapid decline of eight or ten \ cent. The decline was caused bj falling off iu imports and an incret j of exports. It is said, also, that return of our Government hoi from Europe is contemplated, consequence of the rumors of i peachmeui, and that gold will cor nue to advance on that account. To allay appreheusion, abroad ii at home, as to the financial effect the assumed ejection of Presid? Johnson Crom office, the journals voring that measure now take pa to show that the event will hardly a nine days' wonder, and that it 1 not divert the country from the "c tener of its way." Europeans li witnessed political disturbances often, and have suffered from til i too much, to be persuaded that p j lie credit can be sustained and '?. proved by them. If the credit of ! Government is not to be manife 1 improved by the intended revoluti ( then foreign capitalists will hastci realize the present value of ? bonds. Tiny are held on spec Mtion, or for investment, and if > holders ol these can sell them ! "seventy now, and buy back at fo E j tliey will avail themselves of the . j portunity. Tho first movement ' ; wards a return of our Governn - ; bonds from abroad for salo, iu ; I considerable amount, in consequc r \ of the apprehended effects of > j peach rneut, will be the signal f r : panic in tho gold market. CLOSING PB THB RANKS.-Thc C?iislitutional Union, of Washington, says: The spring campaigns are being opened with great vigor by the Democracy and the friends of the Union. In Ohio and in Connecticut thc platforms are laid d?\vn in such unmistakable language that even the j wayfaring man, tluHtgh a fool -and u ! radical, need not err therein. It is I encouraging to know that throughout i our entire ranks there is harmony in ; action, a. unity of pian, and that our | j whole force is devoted to the execu I tion of the grand object tc? save the j Union and to early complete the great ! work of restoration. To again per ? feet thc Union of these .States is our ? paramount idea, and in our efforts to J accomplish it, we display a singleness j of purpose which is completely para i ly/.iug the hands of the opposition. The people, in whom an unwavering ( trust has been reposed, are emerging from the clouds of radical fanaticism and hate in which thoy have been enveloped, and see with the clearness of a demonstration how wickedly they have been deceived. Tho Presi i dent is rapidly assuming his right ? ful place, with increased favor, in the ' thoughts ?ind affections of thc people, I and all are, on every hand, acknow? ledging that the Union can only be saved, with all its blessings, by a rigid adherence to his wise and con? stitutional policy. As the chart and tho compass is the guide to the mariner, and without which ho would be lost in unknown seas, so to the President is the Constitution and the teachings of the fathers. To them ho adheres, and while so doing the ship of State is safe. SENSIBLE.-The Augusta (Georgia) Constitutionalist very wisely discou- j rages the Southern passion for omi gration as follows* "To those who search abroad for ? the liberty, happiness or sustenance they deem impossible at home, we wish God-speed. For the industri? ous, hopeful and courageous, who prefer, or are compelled, to cling to their country, wc have ineffable sym? pathy. Both have rugged paths to travel, and to both, we trust, a noble destiny will bc given. We are asked in what respect can the prospect be more gloomy abroad than at home. Isolation, separation from friends, uncertainty, lack of sympathy-these are some arguments for the wander? er's reflection. Fanaticism cannot last forever. Reaction is bound to eventuate. The radical party per? force go the full length of anarchy, or die; and the end of anarchy is po? litical death for the disturbers of public order." WRITING MACHINE.-We learn from the Greenville (Ala.) News, that Mr. Pratt, of that place, has obtained a patent for an improved Pterotype, or machine for writing with type. The Netos says, "the invention of Mr. Pratt, which it has been our good fortune to see in operation, is one of the most wonderful and satis? factory of the. age, and destined to effect a perfect^ revolution in the whole art of writing. So many efforts had been made to effect machinery of this character, that we confess wc were af ong time incredulous as to Mr. Pratt's success. But an exhibition of his machine, against our strongest preposessions, convinced us that he had reached the acme of invention. It is as simple as Newton's laws of gravitation, but wonderfully original and .perfect." PERSONAL. -Colonel Jno. C. Has? kell, C. S. A., was in our eily yester? day, stopping at the Lanier House, and, we aro glad to be able to say, in excellent health. Colenol Haskell's military career was a very brilliant one. He is a South Caro? linian by birth, but was associated with Georgia troops, and his many Georgia friends will In: pleased to L j hear that he came out of the war t ; safe, aft<-r tho loss of his arm at the t j battle <>f Manassas, although wound - j ed several times afterwards. He is > ! Oil Iiis way to Mississippi to look ! ; after his planting interest in that 1 State.- Macon Teleqraph. i COMMERCIAL FAIMUES.-By a re ) port made by a commercial house in i New York, it appears that during - lstiC) tlnre were tio'2 commercial - failures in the Northern States of the i ; Union, of which tho total liabilities : amount to ?17,333,000. This is a , greater amount than has been lost by ) failures in the Northern States dur V iug any year since 1861. In 1865 - there were 530 failures/?#itli 617, ? 625,000 losses. In the entire couti t try, during 1865, there were 1,505 , failures, with 853,783,000 losses. - ! An ice gorge, in the Ohio River, t above Cincinnati, broke and swept y ?mst the city, on Wednesd .- . ;ght, e sweeping away eighteen .. jes, - ! and seriously damaging two or Jirei a litie steamboats. Navigation is SUS' i pended in consequence. SPECIAL NOTICES. SWEET OPOPONAX FIIOM MEXICO! NOW, very rare, rich ami fashionable perfume. Thc (inest ever imported or manufactured in United states.

A NEFARIOUS BUSINESS.-It is the richly-freighted ship that ip, tracked by the robbers of the sea; and, on tho same prin? ciple, it is the popular specific that the '.and buccaneers, called counterfeiters, se? lect for their shining mark. HOSTET TER'S STOMACH BITTERS stand pre? eminent among medicinal preparations in this country. The demand for them is something wonderful--unparalleled; hence tho counterfeiters know full well that if they can impose their fiery fluids upon thc people as that famous tonic, they can make fortunes by the fraud. They are now at work. Detectives arc on the trail of some of them, and others have been already brought to book. Let the public second the proprietors in their efforts to bailie the reckless scoundrels who seek at once to poison the community and swindle the firm that has produced the liuest Ve? getable Bitters ever manufactured. Think? ing to dodge the law, the counterfeiters are affixing to their bottles names resem? bling in orthography and sound that of ? floatet tor, such as "Hochstetter," "Hoof stetter" and tho like. Will the public be kind enough to look to this, and to seo also that the label is all right, with its vignette of St. George and the Dragon, and ita tiny note of hand, signed "HOS TETTER .V SMITH?" The proprietors will do their part to protect thc million from imposition, and they ask the million to be on the alert against the plotters against their health. 110STETTEU A SMITH. Jan 30_tr.
