eran Volunteer Battalion, for copysof
the Houston Daily Telegraph, publish
ed at Houston, Texas. Lieut.. Durham
is stationed at Galveston.
Among other items the Telegraph
furnishes the following as interesting to
cotton spectators:
a great commotion was observable
among cotton dealers yesterday. It
seems that General Granger had been
informed that several parties were spec
ulating in cotton, formerly belonging to
our late cousin Sally; and as all Of said
cotton had been surrendered by General
Kirby Smith to General Candy, and
none could be found, the shrewd Yam
KEGS naturally concluded that somebody
was trying to cheat them; hence, orders
were issued requiring all holders of cot
ton to show clear papers as to their own
ership Of said cotton. If they do so all
will be right, If not, Uncle Samuel wants
his share. We learn from the best au-
thority that every bale of cotton lately
belonging to the C. S. Government is
known to the officials. All private cot
ton win not be molested, and planters
need feel no alarm that injustice will be
done them By the military authorities,
bat we would not give Scents q pound
for cotton held By some enterprising
men in this State The British and
French flag will not allow them to gouge
Uncle Sam. Several parties have been
passing through the country represent
ing themselves As having authority from
Shreveport and Marshall to- take cotton
belonging to the late G. s.. Government
The people should be on their guard fol
all strangers, and not turn over any prop
ty unless the parties claiming it car
show clear papers from the proper an,
thorities. v -f-4 r -E- Ht

PxssoEAL.--we received call yes
serdsy from Mr.. p. s. Duaouchet, Of
New Orleans. Mr.. Dusouchet has bsea
absent from rs about nine months. New
Orleans is now his home, where be 10
doing . very comfortable business in the
commission line. Il was q great graft
fcatiou to learn from him that our old
friends ?. g. O'Riley and John Wymond
are doing well. Mr.. Wymond has been
successful in raising magnificent crop
of cotton, which be is now picking, on
his leased plantation near Thibadeaux-
He has cultivated during the season
about $50 acres Of cotton which viii
yield on the average about two bales of
400 pounds each to the acre. he has
also cultivated sixty or eighty acres Of
sugar cane, from which in all probable
ity be will realize something handsome.
Mr.. Wymond has suecesded in conyinc-
ing those most prejudiced sgaiust the
system that free labor is more profitable
than slavery, even in the cultivation OF
cotton and sugar. Notwithstanding his
inexperience and the necessity be was
under of discharging his overseer early
in the season because of his inability TO
| get along with the freedmen, Mr.. Wy
nond has raised a. fine crop as ever
graced his plantation in i.s pAlmiest
days. His success in demonstrating the
practicability of raising cotton more
Echeaply and successfully with free
negroes than with slaves, will have an
influence upon the future politics Of the
neighborhood in which he lives, that
will tell for good. T
Mr.. Dasouchet informs US that the
health of New Orleans il excellent.

B@ Ts pleasant to dream pleasant
dreams. The editor Of the Cairo Even
ing Times is endeavoring to test the
truth Of this remark. The following is
bis dream of Cairo's future: zsisrae 3
We know that Cairo win be the me-
tropolis Of the Southwest We are con-
6dent of our city's future. Thinking
minds all over the country know that
noe many years hence vast city, with
numherless manufactures, with miles OF
levees filed with the merchandise of the
East, and the staples of the South and
West; harbor crowded with stean=
boats, streets, solid with substantial and
imposing business blocks, or adorned
with elegant and palatial residences,
will mark our peninsula.
8 Happy dreamst The frogs that make
melody in the swamps that surround
bis village disturb not hissweet inagiia-
atoms; the noise Of the steady going
pumps that prevent the water from over
flowing his dwelling, have no effect upon
his nervous organisation; and. the fogs
and mist that envslop his town obscure
not his beautiful pictures of the future.
Cause Why, he's used to 'em.
