A new MovEMENr.-L correspondent o,
the Providence Journal, writing from Dixon.
Illinois, says: "A move has been made by
the ladies' of Dixon, Illinois. Some twenty
of the daughters Of Rhode Island, now resi-
ding here, have resolved that until every fac
tory and calico establishment of their native
State is again in successful operation, thew
will neither purchase nor consume any fab
Tic, unless of American manufacture and
will give the preference to the labor of their
native State. The sons of Rhode Island, also
residing here, have adopted a similar ~resolu-
ton, and ten of thom will appear next week
IN new suits OF broadcIoths, the materials os
which were furnished by Rhode Island fac
~torles.n

WASHINGTON, DEC, 1.-The interviews
between the President and Gov. Walker
have assumed a new aspect, and friendly
professions have been interchanged. 1t is
understood that Walker will resign or be re-
moved before the meeting of congress.
Is Mr.. Buchanan getting frightened at the
threatening aspect Of the South that he is
but now taking into consideration the resie-
nation or removal of Gov. Walker II such
Is the case, and it appears to be so, it speaks
but little for the foresight of the President
IN not removing Walker before. The feeling
in the South against Mr.. Buchanan and the
National Democracy will hardly be allayed
by this tardy justice TO the Southern people.
The refusal of the Administration to recall
Gov. Walker months ago when his treachery
was discovered has tended more to weaken
the Democratic party in the South, than all
the efforts of the opposition.

The INJURY TO THE CANE.-The late
freezes have been far more injurious 20 our
sugar cane than many persons are aware of
Happening to be at the sugar house OF our
neighbor, Col. Williams a day or two ago,
when several loads of cane had Just been
hauled in from the field, We were requested
to cut a number and satisfy ~ourseIt OF the
effect OF the frost. We did so, and in every
instance found the cane completely soured;
and so spongy had they become, that they
could be easily twisted and bent into any
shape without breaking. The Colonel ex-
pressed his tears as to the cane making sugar at
all. The same effect is visible upon every
plantation in our parish that We have visited,
and from others, we learn that no plantation
Is exempt from it. 1t is 4 fair conclusion
then, that the injury has followed the frost
wherevsritt $ fallen.

The Vernon (Jacksonl Times saws that
Gen. Kidd tAmeri Senator from that dis
trlct, will vote Tor the Democratic Candidate
Tor L. 5. Senator. He considers the vote in
his district at the recent election equivalent
to instructions to that effect.
4 paragraph similar to the above is going
the rounds, stating that Gen. Kidd had be-
come a partial if not an actual convert to
Democracy. We are loathe to believe such
a report from the fact,that Gen. K. had too
exalted an opinion of the principles of the
American party, and too great a knowledge
OF what constitutes modern Democracy, to 90
over to the enemy. Nothing but the asser-
ton from Gen. KS own lips would convince
us OF such a move. That he would vote tor
the Democratic candidate is no evidence that
ne has renonncet his faith in the American
party.

CROPS IN AscEss'oN.-The Coast Journal
of the 2sth ut. says:
The cold spell Of last week has had a most
injurious effect on the crops. In every quar-.
ter the planters have turned to windrowips
their cane, much of which is killed from ton
to bottom. We have heard intelligent plan
teIs assert that the frost OF Thu, sday the 10Th
instant, reduced the crop at least IS per cent.
Some idea may be had Of the injury done,
wnen 1t is reflected how late our planters
were IN beginning to grind. One large plan
ter IN the vicinity Of this place, has nearly
500 acres of cane to grind yet, having hardly
got fairly under way. when the frost came.
The mild weather, accompanied by rain,
which followed the cold spell, has increased
the damage, if We may rely on on the state
mems ot experienced planters.
