Cuban Cotton,

A late number Of the ''PrensG," Havana jour
nal, states that great impulse has been given to
the cultivation of cotton in CUBA new article &.
production the island, but which promises soou
TO become a staple. Company called the Algo-
donera has been formed for the purpose of develop
ing the resources OF the island in the production O.
cotton and of lending every assistance such plant
may be disposed to undertake the cultivation
Of the article. The Psensa says that there are now
on exhibition in Havana specimens of fine varieties
OF cotton, all of which valuable, and all of which
can be grown with the greatest facility Il Classics
them as follows:
lst. Cleaned cotton from the sugar plantation L.
Herradura, at Bahia Honda.
%. Bolls of cotton from the district of Alouizar.
from Louisiana seed.
Sd. Cotton raised from India seed in the garden
of Sr. Pedregal, and cotton called de rinoa (sid.
ney) from creole seed raised in the district of AL,
quisar
4th. Cotton bolls from the farm Of D. Joaquin
Covarrubias, in Batabano.
5th. Cleaned cotton, indigenous, grown on stony
soil north and south of the Gale de Barreto in Gu
anabaeoa.
Besides these, the Prensa describes specimens OF
an indigenous cotton, grown from Brazilian seed in
San Felipe; yellow cotton from Trinidad, a cotton
produced by dwarf tree ia Santa Rita aud silk
cotton, OF very fine quality from the same neigh
borhood. All these eottons, the Prensa states can
be produced with the greatest facility on the Island
and, under the operations Of the Algodonera, or
Cotton Company, no doubt cotton will soon be-
come an article OF consequence IN the commerce Of
Cuba.

Miss WHITE AND NJ. MAzzINI.-Returnin
home again, am enabled to announce to you
the immediate liberation of Miss White. She
will, if she pleases, go back to England, very
angry at heart that she can find very little to
say against Piedmoutese tyranny Our govern
ment has thought it inexpedient to bring to
trial woman who formally declares in her
peadings, and writes to ali her friends in Eng
land, that Mazzini is ''the Christ of the age.n
For the rest, what appears strange, bat is true
Notwithstanding, is that Mazzini remains still
amongst us, and the day before yesterday a
long letter Of his was sequestrated which he
had sent to one of his disciples. Whether he
stays here out of bravado or from necessity |
cannot tell. 1t may be that lie has failed in
obtaining means to cross the frontier; since,
although the newspapers describe him as a
sort of conjuror, or as some one possessing the
ring OF Gyges and Aladdin's lamp, he has, after
all, visible aud tangible body, the scent OF
which is pursued by The police hounds Of eve
ry governmeut.-Zurin Letter IN the DaiLg

EB> An intelligent correspondent sriting to the
State Department at Washington, D. c., calls at
tention to the increase in the consumption OF COT
ton in Odensburg, Germany, since lis accession TO
the zoll Verein. Previous to 1854, the eorrespon-
dent adds, very little cotton consumed 10 this
country. In 1855 you hnd three cotton mills
(sPioners) in Odenburg proper, and one in BiEken-
geld, working together 1898 spindies, and con-
sumng 1884 900 pound Of cotton per annum.
From the private report OF gentleman largely IN
terested in these spinners, learn that 90 500
sPiuners have been put up this year which viii in
crease the consumption Of cotton 70 4.4se, 500
pounds in 1858.

HE CROP PROSPECTS IN EURoPR.-We have
taker same pains to collect from the Liverpool
and London circulars and the letters from
thence which were received by last mail the
exact details of the crop news; and we gather
from the whole that for a few days previous
to the departure of the America there had
been heavy rains, interfering with and in some
places entirely putting stop to the housing of
the crops; in consequence of which wheat had
risen an average of 3D., and corn in proper
ton. Holders were not particularly anxious
to sell even at these rates From the CONT
nent of Europe we have as yet no advices that
can be regarded as unlavorabe TO the crops.
though, as is well known, bad weather in Eng
land usually implies bad weather throughout
the continent.
1t would be a singularly provdential and
Opportune occurrence for our farmers and corn
dealers at large, if, at this eleventh hour, an
accident or series of storms were to impair
the quality or quantity of the grain crop in
Europe. 1t seems like flying in the face of
Providence to hope for dear bread no doubt
the happiness and well being of the millions
OF poor in Europe largely depend on the boun-
ty Of the harvest and the cheapness of the
staple article of food. But, in reality, our in-
terest IL this country, is in great measure an-
tagonistic to that Of the poor of Europe; what
is misery to them is plenty to u.s. and, when
our position is critical, what is comfort to
them may be serious matter TO us.-N. T.
