SOUTHERN INDUSTRY.

The bugaboos, so industriously circulated
through many of our journals, importing that
the negroes refuse 10 work-that the mas
ters decline or are unable to employ them =
that the fields consequently stand unculti
vated-that hence there is great danger Of
general famine, &c., &c.--are gross and
misleading exsggerations; while the stories
of negroes crowding into the cities 10 die Of
famine, vice, exposure, and pestilence are
even worse. We can hardly find South
ern man in this City who does not say, in
response to inquiries, 30, my negroes re-
main, and are at work the same as ever;'
sometimes adding, "except two or three
bad fellows that was glad 20 get rid Of
There were good many, who, on first
seeing the long expected Union forces and
flag, took holiday, in order 10 ascertain by
practical experiment that their freedom was
no illusion; but even these generally went
back, after week or so, and offered TO 90
10 work; and most Of them were accepted.
No planter who is fit TO own a dog has had
any trouble in securing all the labor he
wanted. Thousands have said 10 their late
slaves, II have no money, and | cannot even
give you meat, save occasionally, for / can
hardly get it for myself; but meal you shall
have, with share of such vegetables as we
can raise; so take hold and help make 9
crop, and you shall have your pay out Of The
proceeds" and never, except when the
planter was VIGOROUSLY hard, cruel, faith
less man, has he failed 10 command help or
these terms. We are confident, therefore
that, while there will be suffering in locali
ties which the war has completely devas
tated, there will be more grain grown thar
will be needed for home consumption.
Yet the South must be poor for the mex
! eighteen months. For, in the first place
she is nearly stripped Of domestic animals
and is unable at once TO replace them. TIL,
Rebels impressed most of the horses, hogs
| and beef cattle; then came the Union armie
and swept from large districts nearly al
that the Rebels had left. Crops will b
| light Tor want Of teams; and meat will b
scarce because stock hogs are hardly TO b
found. The widespread destruction G
fences is lesser evil than it would be
there were more domestic animals 10 tax
advantage of it.
There will be little Cotton made thi
year, because few planted it while tn
country was in the final throes of the Re
bellion; and, when at last peace came,
was too late. Some planters immedlatel
rlowed up part Of their young Corn AL
planted Cotton instead: and those will q
well if the frost holds of; but there wi
not be One Million bales made this yea
between the Potomac and the Rio Grand
We estimate, however, that there are Fl
teen Hundred Thousand bales to-day in ii
South, worth at least 500 per bale TO I'll
holders. Meet year will see Three Million
Of bales grown: and this will sell at price
that ought to put the Souh fairly on hi
, feet.
On tile whole, we doubt that there wei
ever smaller proportion Of the Southel
people idle on the lst of July than now.

The Huntsville Citizen, of We sterday's date, has
a long article headed ''Some Recollections OF the

"We cannot close, however, without recitingan
incident that occurred while the guerpillas were

for dexterity and boldness, has rarely been equal

word, a robbery of the robbers. Anderson went

PARDoNED.-Gov. Fletcher has pardoned
Robert c. Trapp and Jacob Rostick, indict-
ed by special grsnd jury during our recent
adjourned term, for the offence of robbery.
On Wednesday they were taken before
Judge King on writ of habedS corpus and
discharged. They left in an hour or two
thereafter for their homes. They were
young men, or rather boys, and it is TO be
hoped the short experience they had in con
finement will have the effect OF producing q
thorough reformation and determination moi
again TO be surrounded by similar circum'
stances, but to avoid the very appearance
Of evil. They had both been recently hon
