Receipts of Cotton at all the ports up to lates, dates

The next question is, what will be the deliveries
per week for the coming thirteen weeks ending on
the 3lst of May? There will be required to be de-
liyered at the seaports $1,000 bales per week, of
which 7a3,6S0 bales go to make up four millions
and half. We have at the inland towns ZIG 500
bales, so that there are to be delivered from PLAN
tations and small interior towns 577,lso bales.
With all these vast figures, there ought to be an
abundance of money throughout the South, but the
great financial question is to be solved and will be
watched and serutinized from day to day.
1t is of no use to talk of mails. There were no

The Topeka (Kansas) Tribune says that several
hogs which were bitten by dogs and ran mad from
the effects, were picked up and eaten by the Kaw
Indians, and the effect on them has in many instan
ces been, first a swelling of the body and head
then raving and madness followed by death. During
the earlier stage Of this disease, the impression
was that it was the smallpox.

WHEN IS A MANS BLOOD UP2-Ah! it is the
pale passions that are the iercest-it is the vios
lence of the chill that gives the measure of the
fever. The fighting boy of our school always
turned white when he went out to pitched battle
with the bully of some neighboring village; but
we knew what his bloodess cheeks meant the
blood was all in his stout heart. He was slight
boy, and there was not enough to redden his face
and fill his heart all at once.

The Butchery of the Grew Of the New York
SloOp-Further DisclOsures.

The mystery attending the late tragedy on
board the New York oyster-sloop E. 4. john
son, mentioned in our Saturdays issue, is
clearing up, and the police there feel sanguine
of being able to effect the arrest of the per-
petratoI of the murders at an carly hour. 1t
is ascertaned that man answering the de-
scription of one of the crew of the Inflated
sloop came ashore at Staten Island, on
Wednesday morning, in q small boat, and
related that he belonged to a vessel which
had been sunk a few hours previously by
coming in collision with schooner. He
further stated that the captain of the sloop
had been killed by the collision, and that he
was the only one on board who had time to
escape, which he did by getting into the
yawl boat. 1t is considered almost certain
that the mate who was engaged by Capt.
Burr and the owner, just before the vessel
sailed and whose name, Nicholas Clock, is
an assumed one, murdered his three aSsoci-
ates, tempted by the thousand dollars in the
possession of the captain; that the murders
were committed shortly after midnight on
Wednesday morning; that the murderer pos
sessed himself of the coveted booty, and made
for land in the sloop's yawl.

rT.x,co and Mr. Cas-.

We are indebted to Hon. s. $. Cox, for a
COPY of the Washington Globe containing
his speech-perhaps we should say great
speech--,ipon Mexican affairs, Mn Cox isin
favor of speedy and efficient intervention.
with an abundance of tropes and figures
like edge-toos dangerous in careless hands
he describes the condition of the, sister re-
public" and sets forth our obligations in the
premises
"Such is the present condition of Mexico;
and such Is our interest in II, that we cannot
be either idle or Indifferent to its fate. II is
one of those cases of great public distress,
which lies at our very doors. We cannot
avoid seeing it. II is in our path as an OBJ
struction to our progress, and menace to
our peace. Self Interest, if not republican
sympathy, demands from us for Mexico our
quickest heart throb, and our most active in
tervention."
Mr.. Boyce-Mexico is our sick man.
Mr.. Cox-Yes she is to America what
Turkey is to Europe. If she be not healed of
her wounds and set upright on her progress
sive path, she must become not only the sick
man, but the dead man whose very corpse
will arrest our steps, taint the air, and poison
our own political system. To save her, she
must be innoculated with American energy.
To save her alas is she not already a
wreck, whose disparted ribs and crushing
timbers, tossed on the wild wave of anarchy,
endanger the safety of her neighbors2
With submission; this is twaddle--very
elegant, very forcible, and very foolish. As
literature-whose mission is to credte-it is
well enough; as politics, craftsmanship,
whose business is with things as they are,
nothing could be poorer. How much, we
might ask Mr.. Cox, has Turkey, the European
invalid, profted by European intervention?
AS much probably as Mexico will profit by
the recent seizure--Heaven knows why-of
her vessels by one of our national ships.
Just as apt to the real state of the case are
the rest of his post-mortem illustrations. The
talk about innoculating our own system with
her complaints, is the wisdom Of Il school-boy
bent ON riding his simile to death. The true
policy for the United States is to take care of
its own affairs. Congress and the administra-
ton have enough of that to do, without in
stituting Quizotic expeditions to Mexico or
anywhere else. Let us look to the bar
barian at home; and let the foreign dead bury
their dead in their own way.

An Grafton delivered before the Triennial
Convention of the ALPHA DELTA PHI, at
MIAMI UNIVERSITY, Oxford Ohio, July 3,
1885, by George E. Pugh, has been printed at
Washington by Lemuel Towers. The motto
is a quotation from Milton 81 CALL therefore
complete and generous education that
which fits man to perform justly skillfully,
and magnanimously, all the offices, both
private and public, of peace and war" The
grafton is in praise of education, and of
true and false modes for the acquisition of
learning, and contains many just sentiments
expressed in apt and forcible language.
Like many gentlemen who graduate, how
ever, Mr.. Pugh seems to forget that it is not
more the style of education that forms the
people, than it is the people who form the
style of education. The formulary training
of the Egyptians was in perfect conformity
with the indiscursiveness of the Egyptian
character. We utter great many fine sem
timents about mental training and discipline
as superior to mere acquisition, but being a
people enlisted in headlong material pro-
gress, our education is practically as mechani-
cal as ourselves, and is likely so to continue.

THERE is to be an "irrepressible conflict"
in New York between two operate impressa-

man-Strakosch will open in Irving Place and
Maretzek in the Academy of Music. The
former has Patti, with the probability OF
Frezzolini while the latter has secured a star
in the person Of Madame Fabbri, who comes
with ahgh reputation. The Herald remarks
that as "Maretzek and Ullman are as fond Of
quarrelling as any Irishman at fair, and are
never so happy as when they are in a row,
it seems very probable that hostilities will
be commenced

4 REMINIsoENcE OF ScOTIA's BARD.-Barry,
the artist while on a late visit to Boston,
came into possession of a white linen table
cloth, woven fifty years ago. by the wife of
Robert Burns and spread on the oaken table
in the poets cottage, on those great occasions
when the Edinburgh gentry deigned to honor
their proteges home with their patronizing
visits. Late in the evening Mr.. B. produced
the sacred relic, which, of course, underwent
the eager and reverential inspection of the
present, ii was spread in an upper room; lem
ons and highland whisky were sent for; a
Scotch punch was brewed, and over the ta-
ble-cloth, hallowed by its associations with
the peasant bard, the memory of Burns was
drank by all, and Aud Lang Syne sung in
due and ancient style.

CHANGES IN A WELL-KNowN COMMERCIAL
HOUsE.-A New York correspondent of the
Charleston Courier says: "Moses H. Grim
nell, a leading partner, for number of
years, in the house of Grinnell, Minturn &
Co., will soon withdraw from the concern,
and return with his family to Europe, to
spend considerable time. Mr.. Grinnell has
sold his splendid residence at the corner of
Fifth-ayenue and Fourteenth-street. The
house of Grinnell, Minturn & Co. will retain
its old name, as Mr.. Robert B. Minturn, his
son, and Il son of Moses H. Grinnell, will
continue to be partners in it. Henry Grin
nell has not been connected with the house
for several years, and none of his sons were
ever partners in the concern"

Uyntt Sympatliy in Wn ,hinEton.

The Washington correspondent of The Boston
Traveller writes that the case of Hyatt is ex-
citing much attention. Senators and mem
bers of the House are among his numerous
visitors. The jailor has relaxed the rules,
which are vigorously enforced against the
other prisoners, whether rich or poor, which
are that they shall receive no visitors except
members of their immediate family and their
physician. Mr.. Hyatt's room is quite large,
with high ceiling, a very large window
grated with iron bars, from which all view of
the city is excluded by heavy wooden blinds,
which can neither be opened nor removed.
When Mr.. II. was placed in the room, it was
bare of all furniture. Government has sup
piled him with nothing. The room now
contains bed, three chairs, walnut table,
a few tin and earthen dishes, a washstand and
fixtures. The brick floor is covered with ce-
ment, except in large spots where this is bro
ken away. The walls and ceiling are white
washed, and the room is scrupulously clean.
All the furniture of the room has been sup
piled at the cost of the prisoner, as will be
all the additonsmade TO his accommodations.

Did the Negroes Run Awny, or Did They Not
Run AWayt

Did the Negroes Run Awny, or Did They Not
Run Awayt
That Is the question; the negroes being
those ofthe Hon. Edward Bates, of Missouri.
Having given currency to rumor upon this
point adverse TO the claim of emancipation
philanthropy set up for that gentleman, the
Gazette takes us up, and puts us down upon
the plea that there is no such journal in st.
Louis as the Post the one named in our ar
ticle, upon the authority Of the New York
/ Tribune; and that therefore the story is un-
true. The St. Louis Bates journals, in the
place of giving anything of their own upon
the subject, copy the Gazeh"'s paragraph,
which seems to throw doubt upon their
view Of the case. In the mean time we find
light in the Evansville Enquirer, which, Civ
ing the Gazeite's article, comments as follows:
1--WE presume the Cincinnati Press referred
to the st. Louis Bulletin instead of the Post
The Bulletin is a respectable paper ofopposi-
ton tendencies, and made the statement that
Mr.. Bates negroes ran away from him, and
after trying in vain to recover them, his
friends gave out that he had emancipated
them. This statement has not been disputed
by either of the St. Louis papers, in Mr.. Bates
interest that we are aware of, and is, no
doubt, true, the Cincinnati Gazette to the con-
trary notwithstanding.

Religions ''statusY of Hon Edward Bates

Religious "Status" of Hon. Edward Bates.
As everything that relates to the character,
standing and qualities, of gentlemen who
seek to become Presidents of the United
States is important, the following from a
correspondence of the ~ Y Post touching
the religious habits of Mr.. Bates, will be a
great comfort to tender conscences:
"Hc is a member of the Old School Pres
byterian Church. and has always been a
regular attendant upon the church services,
but think have never known him to take
any part in the weekday services of the
church he attends, and suppose this may be
attributed to his indisposition to appear in
public outside of his strict professional duties
as lawyer"
To guard against all accidents, the writer
should have certified whether or not there
be another gentleman of the same name at
st. Louis, or somewhere in the vicinity, n
lawyer, unmarried and so forth, who has
some time been connected with the Catholic
denomination. The want of this precaution,
it will he remembered, was the occasion OF
great trouble in the Fremont campaign.

The Catholic Telegraph pitches into the
Enquirer, with an unusually liberal expendi-
turc ofvocabulary severities in consideration
ofanarticle which recently appeared in the lat
terjournal, upon the subject of Marriage and
Divorce. From the remarks indulged in, we
should be inclined to believe that the editors
Of the Telegraph were pair of honest, mar
ried gentlemen, who had, for many years,
enjoyed unusual happiness in their domestic
relations. Being indebted to them ourselves
for a compliment very judiciously bestowed,
we do not know that we can make better
return than by hoping that they and their
respective families are in an excellent state
of health and preservation.

The John Brown Subscription in Hayti

The ". T. Herald says that a subscription

Progres, newly established journal, appeals
most sympathetically to the public on behalf
of the relict of "the martyr of Harper's
Ferry" and fervently prays that the colored
people of the whole West Indies will unite in
making the tribute of affection worthy and
profitable one. Already they have raised
nearly $1,000. Grand masses and small ones
had been performed for the welfare of his
soul, and the papers contain invitations to
another great funeral ceremony in honor of
the deceased. "Like the State of New York"
says this public journal, ''where this illus
trious philanthropist was born, we will not
fire salutes to speak our regret, but we will
bow our knees before the Father of Worlds
to pray that the blood so gloriously shed may
be the intallible forerunner Of the liberty of
our brethren,-the object of our most con-
slant wishes"

I'm Adams fall

In Italy, in all time the processes of aggre-
cation and disintegration have alternated.-
No sooner are few provinces united under
one government, and symptoms of coming
nationality begin to make their appearance,
than the old factionary spirit of the people is
awakened, and disorders within advance and
keep pace with the accessions from without.
Such seems destined to be the fate of Sardi-
MIA, whose actual weakness and anarchy will
probably become intense with her increase in
territorial magnitude.
