-Shocco Jones, of North Carolina. 1t is spun and
woven by the negroes. and "plan'' white women,
all over the Southern States. The manufacture of
this styie of goods has obj aimed great increase
since the opening of the war. As stated, recently,
in this correspondence, it is highly probable that
peace will find the South far advanced in GER
tain kinds of industry, that at any previous period
of her history.
The Southern railways having no freight to
transport for merchants or planters, used al
most exclusively for the transportation OF troops
ana provisions, and munitions of war. Being OF a
uniform gauge, the cars and locomotives of one
company can be employed by all the others. Be-
tween Montgomery and Manassas there is only one
break and that is at Petersburg From New Or

ACE OF THE WoRLD.-The deepest deposit OF
guano known is 10 feet According to Humboldt,
third of an inch in thickness. By an easy mathe-
matcal calculation, it will be that at this
it would take almost countless centuries to form the
deepest guano bed. Such calculation carries us
back to former geological period, and proves that
in past ages greater number of birds existed.

SIGNS OF THE TIMES.

One Of our exchanges explains that the sudden
horror of red which has seized the Baltimore vice
police, is an importation from Ball Run; everybody
knows the disposition of the bull to run at red.

armies unless he can run faster than Mcdowell did

should consent to no treaty of peace that did not
surrender him into the hands Of justice.

Calling for a Draft.
The Northern press everywhere is urging the
Government to make up its army at once by a
draft, aud it will be resorted to very soon unless
the volunteering becomes more brisk. The Phila
adelphia Ledger savs:
"We hope to see in few days peromptory re-
QUESTION for 10000 or $4,000 men from Peunsylva-
MA, $4,000 or C0,000 from New York, and of pro-
poruonate numbers from other States. Not only
Is this Indispensable for the successful prosecution
oil the campaign, but other accounts its influence
would be most salutary. The rebels would see the
spirit and determination of the Administration;
foreign powers would learn the strength of our
Governmon', and that it did not hesitate to make
iull use OF the resources at its command; and the
prospect of so energetic prosecution Of the war,
promising successful termination, would encour-
age our citizens to contribute to the National Ioan
and thus enable the banks to take second and third
iHstalments.

TnE HEALTH AND DoINGs OF GARIBALDl-The
Drpfo of Turin publishes intelligence from Capre-
to the 7th, giving some account of GaribadPs
health and opinions on affairs in general.
'fGen. Garibaldi, who had been attacked with
his rheumatic pains, remained in bed for several
days. and until the 4th left the house. Since
that day he has resumed his walks, and now moth

his left hand, which will shortly disappear by the
use of the vapor bath. Very much grieved at
what is going in Naples he makes it the sub,
ject of long conversations with the companions ot
his solitude, and with the frequent visitors, ltalan
and foreign. who urge him, but in vain, to leave
the Island. He has formally said that he will not do
so unless compelled by events. He receives great
number of addresses and letters from all nations
who are laboring for the great of indepen-
dence and of liberty. Requests for advice are
sent to him from all sides, and be gives it accord

the present time has prevented him from commit,

In England, MIR. Morton, inspector of coal mines,
reports that above $500 900 tons of coal drawn
in Yorkshire last year, and happily the number of
persons killed at the collieries but so, or one
death for every 10000 tons raised. This is the
smallest actual number of deaths any one of the
last ten years, although in that period the number
of coieries has increased from 260 to about 400.

A sketch of the Presidents message appears in
Greek, which has quite a classical tang, in the
Hemera ''Today" of July A-26 Oath of Old
Stye.) This journal is published at Trieste for the
Greek population of the Levant. From the Bos-
ton Couriers literal translation we take the follow
ing:
1t is said that the President of the seeding,
Mr.. Davis, sent letters to the President of the
United, but he sent them back without giving an
answer.
At this many ask, if the Northern States of
America conquer the Southern, will their antagon-
ism on that account? Sooner or later will
they not come again into collision, perhaps more
fearful? As refuge for this it seems either that
slavery must be broken down, radically and imme-
diatey there must be introduced into the United
States military and dictatorial establishment,
analogous to that ruling in the most despotic States
of Europe.
Under the teleg aphic head we get these ad-
vices:

Recruiting ut Harrisburg.
The Harrisburg Patriot of last Saturday, says:
Recruiting in our city is dull and alow busi-
ness. In some of the offices scarcely one man a
day is "picked up" If every five regiments now
having offices opened for enlisting recruits would
join in forming one regiment, there would be some
show OF getting into service.

Clarksville chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1857-1865, 1861-08-30
Gen. Rosencrantz in Limbo.

An Arkansian who reached this city yesterday,
direct from General Lees command in Western
Virginia, reports that he had completely surround
ed Gen. Rosencrantz within the vicinity of Beverly,
and the chances pointed strongly to the probability
of his capture
The statement is corroborated by the following
significant paragraph which we clip from the Gin
cnnatti Gazette of the 22d instant received on
yesterday by express: awe have the very best au-
thority for saying that Gen. Rosencranz stands IN
need of more men. The reasons for this appeal
need not be given. There are obvious reasons why
they should not be stated. IT is enough to know
that there is want, and the patriots of he West
are relied upon to supply it.'-MemPhis Appeal Of
August 25H
The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore
Exchange, writing under date of the goth instant,
says:
"The rumor in reference to the danger in which
Rosencrantz is placed in consequence of the ad-
vance of Lee and Wise, is unquestionably true
A special messenger from RosencTantz has asked
for renforcements and four Western regiments, in
tended for Washington, have been stopped on their
way, and ordered to join him at Clarksburg. In
addition to this, efforts now making TO concen-
trate the Whole of his command at that point
There is some doubt expressed as to whether these
operations will be effected in time to him from
a surrender; but great confidence is reposed in the
ability of Rosencrantz-who is said to be an eX-
cellent oflicer--to extrcate himself from the diff
culties by which he is surrounded"
