The Cholera.

The United States Consul at Rome, under
date Of November 2sth, informs the Depart
ment of State Of the thorough measures
taken to insure perfect quarantine system
in the different ports of Italy. He says that
on the arrival Of any vessel from IN infected
or suspected district, all its passengers are con-
fined in one suite Of rooms In the Lazaretto,
with guardian, who is personally responsi.
bio for their having no communication with
persons, or any other animal.
All baggage is opened and exposed for ven
tilation for the whole period of the observa'
tion, in hall set apart for that purpose
and all dirty clothes are washed by womer
who are under the same restrictions as tn,
passengers themselves. They are not allowed
in contact with persons outside of the build
ingi and all letters and papers are to be fu
migatod before being sent OF.

The Freedmen In Texas.

Brig. Gen. E. M. GREGORY, Assistant Com.
missioner for the State of Texas, informs
Gen. o. o. HowARD, under date of Calves
ton, Dec. 0, that the planters, farmers and
business men generally report to him, during
a journey of some seven hundred miles in
that State, that the crops are all garnered,
and that there was an abundance and quite
sufficient to meet the demands of all, black
and white, for the coming year. The cotton
crop, he says, although about half the usual
yield, was SO well gathered and commands
such high prices that 1t will bring more
wealth into the State than any which has
heretofore been thrown into the market.
And this, he adds, was accomplished princi.
pally by the labor Of freedmen.

Dry Goods.

The market Is quiet, comparatively; yet,
as the stock of goods is light and prices are
buoyant, q moderate demand exists. Some
large sales Of prints have been effected since
our last report, and prices have advanced
la1 cent q yard on desirable styles. There
Is a well-assorted supply Of spring styles,
suitable especially for the Southern market
Brown goods have also advanced, both drills
and shirtings and sheetings. The supply is
light, and the demand is expected to be very
heavy after the holidays. Woolen goods are
less active and the market is very irregular,
especially for fancy cassimeres, of which job
lots have been sold at a concession in price
Spring styles are offering, in expectation Of
an early demand for spring goods. De-
LANES are in fair request for the season.
The advance in prints has led to greater
consumption Of delaines, which, though ad-
vancing in price, are nat near so high Il
prints. The stocks are reduced. Coburgs
are inactive. Black doeskins are accumu-
lating, and prices are heavy. Broadcloths
are quiet. Imported goods are quiet, as is
usual at this period. Spring goods are COM
ing forward in large quantities, and an active
trade in January is anticipated. The i'm
portations last week were unusually great.
In silks already there is some movement.
Low-priced blacks sell readily, and the sup
ply is below the demand; but importations
are daily arriving. Mantilla silks are also
in demand. The amount Of imports last
week entered at the custom house was no less
than 50, 304, 9O7, against only S+85, 7S9 in
the corresponding week Of 1864, and OF
S1,5l2, 545 in similar period of 1S63.-N. Y.

A REPREsENTArrvH Of the railroad inter.
ests in Texas, Mr.. Lockridge, has arrived in
Kansas City, on mission to the president Of
the Kansas City, Fort Scott and Galveston
railroad, with view to the speedy compile
tion Of that road with its Texas connection.
The people Of Texas are fully alive to the
Importance Of the improvement, and hope
that II will soon be completed. Mr.. Lock
ridge says that the hope of speedy railroad
connections with the Northwest, and the re-
sumption Of railroad traffic and travel, is
causing spirit Of enterprise to prevail
throughout the State, and the people gen.
orally are anxiously looking forward TO the
restoration of the State to the Union.
The Boston Transcript says "the supposi.
tion that there may be a collision between
the Executive and Congress in regard to re-
construction and restoration, is ono which as
yet has no evidence to support It. 1t Is one
thing to set the State Governments in motion
for local purposes, which is all the President
has done thus far, or proposes to do, IL we
trust his own declarations, and quite another
thing to allow the South to resume its share
in the conduct Of national affairs. Whatever
arrangements are made to accomplish the
former object, which are opposed to the safe
effecting Of the latter, can be and will have to
be changed aad modified so as to come into
accord with the legislation and amendments
Of the Constitution that may be adopted be.
fore the insurrectionary Commonwealths are
practically received into the Union. 1t Is
well to remember this. Two departments Of
the administration must act and cooperate
before the old relations can be rearranged
harmoniously and securely"

JUDGE BUsTEED TAKES HIS HAT
OFF TO THE UNITED STATES
SUPREME COURT.

Judge BusFEED, in Alabama, has deliv-
cred ian opinion as is an opinion" declar-
ing the test oath for lawyers constitutional.
He says:
81 am Of opinion that the act of the oath
of January, 1855, supplementary to the act
of the I'd Of July, 1862, violates several of
the provisions Of the Constitution; and it is
the right Of those whose interests are to be
affected that l should declare the conclusions
which have reached. If these conclusions
are not founded in reason and law, the Su-
preme Court Of the United States, now in
session, can correct the error, and will
gladly reform my judgment by the standard
of its excellence"

generated America! Hail, North and South,

new duties, its imperative obligations, its
sublime opportunities Hail, the Future,
with its pregnant hopes, its glorious promises,
its illimitable powers Of expansion and de-
velopment
Hail, ye ransomed millions, no more TO be
chained, scourged, mutilated, bought and
sold in the market, robbed of all rights,
hunted as partridges upon the mountain in
your flight to obtain deliverance from the
house Of bondage, branded and scorned as a
connecting link between the human race and
the brute creation! Hail, all nations, tribes
kindreds, and peoples, made Of one blood, ;
interested in a common redemption, heirs of
the same immortal destiny!
"Hail, angels in glory and spirits of the
Just made perfect, and tune your harps anew,
singing "Great and marvellous are thy works,

ways, thou King Of saints Who shall not
fear thee, Lord, and glorify thy name for
thou only art holy; for all nations shall come
and worship before thee for thy judgments

SOUTHERN PRIDE.-We heard, recently, an
amusing instance Of Southern pride. A Ten
nessee lady was in Washington, interceding
for pardon for her rebel husband. Her ap-
plication to the President was well received,
and he treated her with great consideration
and kindness. In speaking of her interviews
with him to friend. the lady remarked that
spoke very kindly Of her husband and his
family, and invited her to stay at the White
House while she remained in Washington.
"Well," said her friend, "you accepted the

THE LYING NEW YORK EXPRESS.
Some mendaoious scamp writes to the New
York Express 70 dirty print conducted by
BooBY BRooKs," who, II reports are true,
will soon bc ousted from the seat he now oc-
cupies in the House Of Representatives. that
the REPUBLICAN "opens war upon General
GRANT, because Of his report to President
JOHNSON upon tho proprioty Of restoring the
Southern States to the Union"
This is in the "Booby" style, and proba.
to. The REPUBLICAN published tho Presi.
dents Special Message to Congress and
General GRASr's report, accompanying it,
in full, and has never expressed an opinion
about the report, and much less made war
upon the General.
The same writer in the Express says the
REPUBLICAN Is 'in the interest Of CHARLES
SUMNER, WILSON, THAD. STEVENS a Co."
Two Of the gentlemen named above, STEVENS
and WILSON, subscribe and pay for the Re-
PUBLICAN. They consequently get, like all
the rest Of our subscribers, more than their
moneys worth, and are indebted to us for
many good ideas, q great deal Of important
information, and much excellent advice
which they toiH act upon some day, IL they
do not see their way clear TO do SO now-for
the truth is mighty and must prevail.
Mr.. SUMNER is not a subscriber to the Ma.
rIoSAL REPUBLICAN, and it is for that rea-
son, we apprehend, that he every now and
then gets of the track. This Is the begin
ming and the end Of the 'interest" we have
in the distinguished trio named above, or
that they have in the REPUBLICAN. This
journal is not the organ Of any clique or
narrow minded party, or ssnseless, impracti-
cal idea; but 1t has been and now is con-
Quoted upon the principles Of RIGHT and JUS
TIcE to all men-principles older and purer
than THAp. STEVENS, CHARLES SUMNER, or
HENRY WILSON, notwithstanding we pre-
sumo they are as pure as the frailty of poll
ticians and humanity will allow men in their
giddy situations to be. The REPUBLICAN is
