Senator Wilson, who ^arrived 3 terday, addressed a largo crowd the Citadel Green, this alterno Abort 2,000 negroes and about whites wore present. The speech . two hours long, consisting mainly th? arraignment at So* th Oaro?ai .ho foremost champion of slavery in the past, and advice to the people, white and black, to unite upon the platform of the Union Republican party. ^_ Among the private soldiers now on duty at the Jackson Barracks, below the city of New Orleans, is one by the name of Schultz, who served during the late war as Colonel of au Illinois regiment, and upon leaving the servico was brevetted to the grudc of Brigadier. Finding, no doubt, u charm iu military life, he re-entered tho servico and enlisted as a high private. But here's tho rub. By an Act of Congress, all ex-officers of thc United States oro permitted upon military occasions of importance to wear the insignia of their brevet rank. Therefore, upon the next parade, will be presented tho curious anomaly of a Brigadier's star carried on tho same shoulder with a musket. Will tho inspected out-rank the inspector? ONE OP TWO THINGS.-"Wo will remain under military rule." So says somo Arkansas editor, and some Louisianian echoes it But, says the New Orleans Picayune, you cannot and will not remain under military rule; you will have a government made for you, if you do not make it for yousclf under the military bills. If you vote down a convention, you who thus vote will bo disfranchised by a supplementary bill, and then none but black and white radicals will have any voice in tho Govern? ment Nothing can be more wild than the idea that there is any mode of action or posture of inaction which can avoid the issue. Organize or emigrate! This is tho only alterna? tive. "The Gang System," as it is called, is ' exciting considerable attention just now in the English Parliament. Not, however, because ia these gangs depraved men and women are worked in tho fields; but, because, mingled with these adults aro multi? tudes of little children, of both sexes, as young as six or seven years of age, who are kept steadily at work in the* fields, from half-past 5 a. m. to 7 or 8 o'clock p. m., somo of them walking five or six miles a day to und from their work. And for this work they receive from the farmer at the rate of from one and a half to two pence a doy-or from three to four cents. Tho Dawson Journal relates a very sad occurrence in Early County, in which a man named Gay was acci? dentally shot by a Mr. Webb, while ont turkey hunting. They wore each imitating the peouliar noise of the turkey, und approaching each other from opposite directions; Mr. Webb mistook Mr. Gay's clothing through the shrubbery, and excited by the Srospect of a fino bani, fired, hitting lr. Gay in the throat, from which he died, ofter lingering several days. A friend of ours, says an exchange, visiting a neighbor, found him dis? abled from having a horse step upon his foot. Hobbling out of tho stable, the sufferer explained how it hap? pened. "I was standing here," said he, "aud the horse brought his foot right down on mine." Our friend looked at the injured member, which was of the No. 14 pattern, and said, very quietly, "Well, tho horse must step somewhere." St. Louis merchants declaro this to be tho dullest season for many a year. CO "UM KI IC I A. L. AND FINANCIAL.. CHAIII?ESTON, May 3.-Cotton firm and advanced lc., with sales of 113 bales-middling 26.

As a large portion of our readers are more or less directly or indirect? ly interested in the movements and in the -Actuations of the price of cotton, wo publish the following artiole from the New York Mercantile Journal: That never failing source of anxiety, tho condition of the cotton market, has again assumed such an aspect as to awaken much remark in business circles hore and abroad. Last autumn the prospect of con? tinued peace in Europe, and the re? conciliation of all jarring elements in both North and South America, led every one to believe that the ex? pected crop of American cotton would not be sufficient to meet the demand. But the revival of general war excitement beyond the Atlantic, filling every avenue of trade with alarm, and the comparative stagna? tion of commercial currents here, huve produced results very different from what the most skillful and ex? perienced dealer in the great staple would have predicted four months \ ago. All the usual tests of business seem to have failed upon this occa? sion, and things are in so abnormal a state, that it is difflonlu to reach any definite conclusion. At home, the usual movement has been greatly impeded by causes which have been repeatedly set forth ' and are now familiar to. the merest child. Great Britain, our chief cus? tomer, has been hampered by the effeot of lost year's crisis, which con? tinues to be very severely felt, and while on one hand the demand for manufactured goods has diminished, on the other, owing to less produc? tion, tho raw material has not been so much required. Still, exportation to tho British ports is sufficiently maintained to indicate that they will absorb a larger share of the crop than , they did last year. The general estimate of the stock on hand at' Liverpool was from 70,000 to 75,000 bales, but tho regularly ascertained ?gares are as follows; for 1866, there were 267,000 bales American; 171,000 East India and China, and 115,000Brazil,Egyptian, Arc., making a total of 553,000; for 1867, there are 332,000 American; Ul.000 India and China, and 171,000 Brazil, &c, or 644,000 in all, exhibiting nu in? crease of 91,000 for tho year, or from 15,000 to 20,000 more than was supposed. Tho best authorities think that j this accumulation will grow until it nearly equals, if it does not eventual? ly exceed, comparatively, tho maxi? mum of last year, and prove suffi? cient to prevent any speculative movement. When we uso tho guard? ed ter ms employed above, our readers will remember that it is feared that the cotton crop for tho present year ( may be 500,000 bales less than tho last. In addition to the disastrous . influence of the recent inundations, . many of the Southern planters have become discouraged at tho prospects j of the cotton business, and yield . ready assent to the language of a j portion of their press, seeking to in- . duce their abandonment of tho old staple and the subs; .tu ti on of cereal orops in its stead. Tho continuance of ', cotton tax is u powerful argument on this side of the question. That , this burthen must be got rid of, or \ that our cotton production is in . danger of serious decline, is only , too evident from the preference shown : by European manufacturers for East ' India cotton, at the difference in , price of 2d. per pound.git is also clear ( that the Oriental growers aro making , handsome profits, while our own aro , reaping very, little, if any. Tho j months of May and June will seo the , heavy arrivals at Livorpool from India commence as those from the United States fall off, and these will swell the stock on hand to n point that may thow all the control of prices into the power of original buyers. Notwithstanding that the existing aspect of the cotton trado is, as wo have pictured it, by no means moro than usually encouraging, so favora? ble a turn may yet be given affairs both here and in Europe, within the next sixty days, as to yield us sub? stance for moro cheering comment. For tho moment, however, tho promise is not dazzling, and tho ex? pectations of those who hoped for better things last Autumn, must BOO their realization a little longer de? ferred. BBIEI-' BUT EMPHATIC.-Tho Now York Journal of Commerce, represent? ing tho great commercial interests of that city, has tho following conciso reference to Mr. Thaddeus Stevens: "This man is a nuisance ?to tho whole country, North -and South. Such letters as that published this morning are calculated to do lasting mischief." ? * ??-? A man who was digging in a lot in Patterson, N. J., brought to light thirty-one copper plates, on varions banks. Each plate was carefully wrappod up in a soparato piece of paper, and tho wholo was labelled "1866." On nearly all of thom tho amount of tho noto was loft blank, HO that tho plato could bo used for any denomination. They aro all on State, and mostly on Now England banks. In tearing down an oid house, a man at Bangor, Me., lately found a gold watch? which had been stolon teem him twelve vean before. South. Carolina. A Columbia correspondent of tho j Now York j&cenina Post writes to tliat paper: "Tho Governor is to-day issuing a circular, addressed to various public men in the State, asking them to for? ward to bis department tho names of persons qualified to act as registers aud managers of eleotions, and able to take tho test oath. Gen. Sickles is thus preparing to order tho registra? tion at an early day. ? 4 * -?The convontion itself, and possibly tho following Legisla? ture, will bo a motley gathering, com ?ioscd chiefly of now men-young awyers, individuals who have never boforo held office, and those who can control a largo ^egro vote. Tho work to bo dono will probably bo suggested by somo 'power behind tho throne.' "Our pooplo heartily favor tho proposition to engraft a provision in the now constitution that the colored raco shall bo provided, by appropria? tion, with freo schools, and thus bo practically aided in their endeavors to improve iuteUeotuaily. This pro? vision, with the privilege of suffrage, will constitute the main features of the new instrument. "We are, however, payiug moro attention to the question 'what wo shall eat,'than 'how we shall vote.' Food is at present of infinitely moro importance than politics. Our peoplo are literally starving. Dress and other externals aro no evidence of tho want that exists in tho pantry. Those who were onco wealthy oro to? day thankful for a bushel of corn. Fathers hear their little ones cry for bread, and mothers havo grown palo in giving tho last morsel to their babes. Prido hides thousands of these cases from tho public eye, but there aro tens of thousands who aro making appeals that would stir a heart of stone. Even while writing this lotter, a gentleman has called- at my residence, at a late hour of tho night, and hero is tho sum of his story: A wifo and four small children; no bread since morning-no hopo for tho morrow. Tears flow down the manly cheek, and tho lips quiver as tho talo is told; and t li ere is a blush in my own face as I dolo out tho few necessities of lifo to ouo who but a few months ago was able to dispenso his own charity by hundreds. Tho Governor states that one-fourth of tho population have not tasted meat for thirty days. Baltimore is about Bonding us a luxury in the shapo of 10,000 pounds of bacon.'" THU PRESIDENT'S PnEst.:;r VIEWS OF RECONSTRUCTION.-A Washington despatch states tho following, which we cnn only say is doubtful-very: "Tho latest bulletin ns to Presi? dential reconstruction views would place Mr. Johnson in direct hostility to tho enemies of reconstruction under the Congressional programme. It is stated to-day, by a distinguished Senator, that Mr. Johnson sincerely regrets that any of tho Southern States havo beeu so unwiso as to at? tempt to ros truing he enforcement of tho reconstauetion acts by injunction. Nay, moro, it is oven said that so de? termined to carry out tho measures tliat, even should injunctions issue from tho Supremo Court, ho would disregard them. That is certainly a very remarkable exposition of Presi? dential views on this important sub? ject; but it is vouched for by a very reliable Senator. The samo Senator anticipates that, by tho meeting of I Congress next December, tho South? am States will bc ready for admis ?ion, and tho great problem of recon jtrnction will be solved, or, at least, srery near its solution." Citors IN EDOEFIELD.-Thc Adver? tiser has tho following hopeful para? graph : "Hope of something to eat! Prom moro than ono section of our District ive have heard very encouraging iccounts of tho wheat crop-or rather sf the growing wheat. And yester? day, a gentleman, all tho way from Laurens, who lias passed down through Laurens, Abbeville and Edge Held, told ns that the growing wheat ind oats along his en ti io route aro iner, moro flourishing and more pro? mising than he has ever known them, l i n says that the oldest men in most ?1 sections hold this opinion." PRESIDENT JOHNSON'S SOUTHERN POUR.-Tho Baltimore American's Washington letter says: Strenuous efforts aro being made by Northern Democratic politicians to prevent President Johnson from ?oing to Raleigh, in May, to attend tho ceremony of laying tho corner? stone of a monument to his parents. His acceptance of tho invitation, ten? dered through Dr. Powell, tho State Agent of North Carolina, was sent 3outh Borne days ago, and it is not likely that ho will bo deterred from Iiis purpose, whioh was approved of by Mr. Soward, who has decided lo iccompany bim. Both of these gon tlomon aro expected to make a fow remarks upon tho political situation luring their contemplated journey. A man from Freo Union, in this County, called at our oflico yoster lay, and was surprised to learn of tho possogo of tho Shormau military bill. Ho said tho peoplo there had tiovcr hoard of it. That's not equal to tho Batcsvillu man, who just heard, in February, rtf the assassination of Lincoln. [Ch+rleMeevUh Wtrenntle. An ingenious but certainly not very inviting mode of procuring gas for illuminating purposes has been proposed in Frnnce. A French che? mist estimates that a human corpse, of ordinary dimensions, by n process of combustion in retort?, moy be made to yield 7,500 cubic feet of illuminating gos, at a cost of about $1.60. This process is certainly making light of death. Reports from Arkansas aro to the effect that while the recent floods in that State were very disastrous, the overflow will not prevent tho putting in of largo crops of cotton und corn. While it has been customary to plant cotton in April, the best that was raised last year was not planted until May. Should tho summer prove a dry one, tho crops will be better for the overflow of this spring. They have an odd way of doing up rampant females in Memphis. They sack 'em. A Memphis paper says: An obstreporons woman was taken to tho Adams street police station on Monday night, tied up in n bag, her head only being out. Sho was thus kept from doing mischief, and was carried along on the back of n sturdy black man. Auna Dickinson has preached in au actual pulpit in Toledo, and very well she is reported to have done it, though tho performances reminded ri local newspaper man of Dr. John? son's saying about a woman's oration "Why, sir, a woman speaking in pub lie is like a dog dancing; it is no' dono well, but we nrc surprised to sec it dono at all."

May 4 A WORD ABOUT THE "QUERN'S DEUGHT."-Wo make tho broad asser? tion that the medicino called tho "Queen's Delight," as prepared by "Heinitsh," ac? complishes more for suffering humanity than any other remedy now in uso upon tho face of tho earth. This fact, and thu wonderful cures it performs, is corrobo? rated by living witnesses. The theory in this: No disease eau bo cured without cleansing and purifying tho blood, which is the fountain of life. This combination of alteratives and dopuratives produces just that chango in tho functions of organ* as to mako a healthy action to take tho place of disease. Wo hear of feverishness fluttering about tho heart, flushes, faint? ing headache, loss of appetite, low spirits, weakness, nervousness and a general good-for-nothingness-all owing to fever and humor iu tho blood; and this produce* another very common disease, called dys? pepsia, because this condition of the blood tends to disorganize the organs of diges? tion.
