SILVER CHANGE.

Ii is now several weeks past, since Mr.. Hun
ter reported bill to the Senate 10 provide for
an alteration in the relative value Of silver, and
yet nothing is done with il. In the meantime
the country is getting drained of our silver
coins, which bearing relative higher value IN
Europe than they do here, are OF course
shipped in preference to gold. Here is an In
stance, noted in the N. Y. Journal of Com
merce of Wednesday evening:
The Asia to-day took out $50, 900 American
silver coin, and f201 English silver, but car
ried DO gold. The country is fast being
drained of all the silver change that can be
scraped together, while Congress is too much
engaged with President-making, to give due
consideration TO the measure ofrelief recently
proposed bv Mr.. Hunter. Unless some change
in the standard value is soon effected, we shall
soon be flooded with hinplasters-aiready
''tickets" are quite abundant, and the poor are
suffer ing daily from the difficulty of obtaining
the requisite facilities for their limited pur-
chases."
The Baltimore Patriot very properly en-
quires "Why don't the Senate take up this
bill, and pass it at once? There is no doubt
of its being right, but if there is much longer
delay in passing it, the object of it will be de-
feated-for the silver will be all gone, or so lit
tie remain, that there will be nothing to resort
to but "shinplasters." Somebody is RESPONSE
BILE for the delay in acting on the bill-and in
the absence of any distinct information, every
Senator is exposed to censure, which he can
only relieve himself from by moving TO secure
the passage of the bill"

Culture Of C0tton in asia Minor.


We find in the National Intelligencer an ex-
tract from report of an inquest recently in
stituted by the French Minister of Commerce.
touching the cultivation OF our great staple,
cotton, in Macedonia, Asia Minor, which we
think will be matter of some interest to our
Southern readers. We give the chief points
Of the report in a condensed form. There are
three principal cotton districts in Macedonia -
For several years the cultivation of the Brazil
cottons has not been tried in Macedonia, but the
cultivation of the finer qualities of the United
States cotton has been tried with perfect sue
cess. 1t has BEEN ascertained, moreover, tina,
the United States cotton are superior in va
lue, by over twenty per cent, to any which
nave hitherto been cultivated in thu province.
Nevertheless, this successful trial of them has
not been followed up, because they have to be
picked very rapidly, aud in Macedonia the
hands are too few, and, perhaps, the cultiyators
too lazy. to comply with this condition. In the
next place, the ginning presents more difficult
ties than for the kinds efcotton now cultivated

most without exception, can only raise money
BY paying usurious interest. The kind of cot.

But little cotton is cultivated in Thessalia.
Herbaceous cotton has long been cultivated
in Anatolia. 1t planted in March and picked
in September. Ii is cultivated SO easily, and
the quality is so good, that before the in,roduc.
ton OF the Jamel, or cotton tree, into Egypt
that country used to impor, all its cotton seed
from Anatolia. Since then, the demand having
fallen off for Anatolian cotton, the production
has leo diminished also. In fact, the annual
expectation, which before the Americans hat
carried the cultivation Of cotton TO such an ex
tent, had risen, for Smyrna, to from 10000 tt
10000 bales per year, is reduced now to irou
$4,000 to $4,000. The weight of the bales
varies from $50 to Geo lbs.-this difference
growing out Of the necessity of regulating the
weight TO the strength of the eameIs used il

The London News OF the l2tn inst. says;
The demand for the various classes of American
State stocks continues, and the appearance OF the
MAJ kets is favorable. limited business has also
been done in some of the leading American rail-
way bonds, and more extensive transactions would
have been entered into, had the supply been larger
So soon as this want has been met it is anticipated
judging from the numerous inquiries now made,
that active business will spring up in these bonds
many of which yield highly remunerative return,
compared with other classes Of investment. Al
though their introduction into the English market
however, is of recent date considerable and in
creasing business has for long time been done in
them at Hamburg, Amsterdam, Frankfort, and other
continental bourses, where American securities are
daily increasing in favor. The reason of the pre-
Il accorded to these bonds is, that they have
coupons attached, negotiable in Europe, whilst the
dividends on many other United States stocks are
payable in America.
