The Treasury Department cstima,ea the
number Of bales Of cotton in the South after
the close Of the war at 200 .ooo, sid the pro-
:nct Of this season at 3oo, ,ooo, milking total
Of million and half Of bales, which can go
to market. But an English house we'll known
In the cotton trade, the Ncil1 Drothei-c, make
a somewhat larger estimate. The different
partners have traversed the cotton States
since The war, and made most careful inYes-
tfgation Of this important question. They
foot up two millions Of bales, and estimate
this years production at 400, 900. It also ap-
pears in support Of their estimates, that al
ready 1090,33A have been sent to market.
Alabama, which suffered less than any other
State except Texas, Ia estimated to Weld
10000 bales, Of which 10000 have
already been delivered at Mobile. The total
amount Of old and new cotton received and
expected at New Orleans is estimated at
100, 600 bales, Of which 131 900 hare been de-
liresed. The crop Of Texas is estimated at
100, 600 bales, which Is equal to an areracc
crop before the war. Memphis has already
delivered oo6, 900 bales, and Is expected 10 re-
eeive IL, 600 more, before entering on next
years produc1.
The American consumption Of this cotton
may be estimated at one-thlrd Of the whole,
leaving twotthirds or 1,c4o, 900 bales for ex-
export 10 Europe This cotton will realize
American growers and merchants at least
forty cents pound In coin, or $50 In gold

Excitement In nEnG}and Respecting tho

As VIC anticipated, the revolt In Jamaica

U7Au.-We had call yesterday, from
Capt. Hooper, Delegate to Congress from
Utah, He Is on his way TO Washington, to
take Ills seat in that body. Capt. Hooper re-
ports the crops in Utah large, and all care
fully gathered. Everything Is decidedly
prosperous. The demand for produce aud
goods from Idaho and Mon ana Is active.
The general improvement OF the central Ter
ritories Of the continent Is progressing finely,
and all VIC need now is the Pacific Railway
to develop their gold and silver districts SO
rapidly that We should forget We had a na-

able Rcntleman, and does not pEact1ce the Pc
culiar vice Of Utah. He formerly lived In Ga

the life and character Of Ahr1ham Lincoln, al

devoted to an analysis Of Mr. Lincoln's pow
ers, VIZ: his ''pe.eeptiou'' "sugges.iyeness,' :
''ana1ytic power" Judgment" sscomnor

treated the subject In q novel aud character
fstic manner, and was listened to with th.
publish the lecture, we give the following
extract, which will serve to give our reader!
some Idea OF the manner In which the subject
was presented.
"There arc many Judgments md opinion:
formed and expressed Of Mr. Lincoln by
equally good and able mcDt some holding
one Wow, or set Of views, and some holding
TO the Others. i few writers. and one or
more Of his bio4raphers, Affirm That Mr. Lin
coin was bundle OF contradictions, probably
admitting Of no explanations /; and hecce, Is
inGcrutablc and unscarchable. I heI Il my
duty to show the salsi.y Of these hitter views,
and 10 reconcile tho others.
" Nature creates nothing In order to 1c1re
It taw1esE.ncfthcT matter nor mind, baly nor
spirit. There Is law of the blood nn;i brain
of sensation and thought. Man, In body
and mind, Is held TO his special taw-hs ma
ture and purpose and be can never wholly
more. Is made by H. Each man Is unity
q one in larmony-an agreement with himself;
He Is one aud the sane-the identical
person. He cannot be and not be. He can
not be contradictory to his nature-he cannot
be the same thing and q different thing, dur
Ing his life. The 1nan may make manifesta-
lions at one tIme--thef come from his nature ;
