cotton,

The Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Ledger says: ...,l'
learn that the Treasury Department has
decided against the proposition to tax all
cotton in the interior Of the South 20 per
cent. This tax was said to have been sug-
gested by numerous factors In Mississippi
and the object was TO protect the Govern
mont and secure to II, IL not the cotton itself,
which came into possession by the surrender
Of the rebel armies, al loast partial equiva-
lent therefor. Gen, Sheridan backed up the
suggestion as . good one, but the Treasury
Department has failed to look upon 1t in the
same light, and IL will not be carried out.
On the contrary, am Informed that in.
struotions have been issued 70 the recognized
agents Of the Government not TO take o bale
Of cotton that had been impressed by the
late rebel government, unless II could be
proved that the parties who owned II had
received an equivalent therefor from the
Richmond authorities. In such case thu
cotton would revert to the United States a,
its lawful property; but where no payment
had ever been made, the cotton, even though
II had been impressed, was not to be touched
This action Of the treasury Is highly
favorable one for the South, and the most
dishonest holders Of the staple could use it t.
their advantage, were they disposed to do so

New THEATRICAL PAPER IN New YORK.
One of the consequences Of the war between
the New York managers and the Herald is
the establishment of a journal called Tie
Stage, which is intended to take the place Of
Tie Play BiH, The Programme, and all the
other substitutes for regular nightly adver-
tisements which have at various times been
let loose upon the city. 1t Is to be under the
management of Mr.. McLAcHLAS, the pro:
prietor of the old PrograRsntej' and 1t may
easily be made profitable enterprise, pro-
vided fresh blood and hrs be infused into il.
Outrageous as the foisting Of the Play Biz
upon the theatres aud the public was it was
nevertheless soon taken into comparative
favor on account of its superior sprigh htlinsOs;
and 1t might haye continued successful for
an indefinite period but for the attempt Of
BENNETT to use it as an additional aid to
blackmailing. The managers while upsettine
the BESSErr bugbeAr ought also to take care
that the new sheet shall have some Of Its en-.
tertaining elements, and preserve patient
public from the drowsy humdrum which had
marked all previous eHtr 'aete publications.

The Tunisians yesterday visited Mayor
GuSrHER of New York. Mayor GuNrHER
addressed General HAsHEM, expressing the
pleasure he felt in welcoming the representa-
tives of Tunis to that city. He then said
that this visit, the first paid by eminent off,
GERS of the Tunisian government to this
country, had excited great interest among
the American people, and would lead to the
happiest results. In this manner the ma.
tions would become acquainted and learn
something Of the character Of the people re-
speotively, and Of the products and CONNER
cial resources of the two countries. The
Mayor said he only echoed the sentiments Of
New York when he proffered to the repre-
sentatiyes Of Tunis the sincere hospitality of
its citizens In consequence of this visit the
countries would be drawn into closer ties Of
intercourse and friendly union. In conclu-
sion tho Mayor invited the General to pay q
visit to the Governors Room Of the City
Hall, to view the portraits there Of distin-
guished American statesmen, soldiers, and
naval commanders. u.
Mr.. Perry translated the remarks of the
Mayor into French. In reply Gen. Hashem
said that he desired to thank the Mayor, as
the representative of the great city of New
York, for the kindly sentiments expressed
by him on behalf oil Its people Nothing but
good could grow out Of such relations, and
he entertained the hope that alnity and
friendship between the two countries would
not only continue, but would be increased.
The party then visited the Governor s
Room, and were much interested in the
paintings
During the visit of the embassy, Mayor
Gunther married two couples in presence Of
the Tunisian envoys-one Of the couples in
English and the other in German. The Gen.
sral placed his name in Arabic, at the request
Of the Mayor, to one of the marriage certia.
