die several consecutive days aud nights,
that this trooper availed himself OF a
temporary halt, to slip from his saddle
and stretch himself upon the turi-his
horse, meanwhile, browsing in the I'M
mediate vicinity. He had slept some
little time, when he was suddenly
awakened by the frantic paving of his
horse at his side. Fatigued by mis- long
ride, he did not rouse at once, but lay IN

so frequently attends great physical

CoTTos the recent arrival oil the
steamship Chbm from Europe, the intel
ligence reaches us that cons'ueraole
rise in the price of cotton ana preau,
stuffs has taken place. To those-ahu
their name is million-who have per-
sonal interest in obtaining cotton
fabrics and daily bread at a cheaper
rate than heretofore, it may seem I'M
welcome news that the price OF these
staples has increased abroad, But there
are considerations which reach beyond
the interests of spectators on the one
hand, which are indeed contemplate,
or the temporary convenience OF CON
sumers on the other which, however, is
no trifllng matter, AS we stated a few
weeks ago, our exports, for the last six
months, have fallen far below our I'M
ports. Specie has been sent trom the
country while it was much needed mere
and our securities have been used to set
tie the balance of trade against us All
this has a tendency to increase the rela-
tive difference between specie and stock
gold commands higher premium,
and government securities depreciate IN
value both at home and abroad.
Cotton has for the last three months
or more been accommodating in New York
and other ports and although large
quantities are consumed in the New
England factories, which are running
day and night, it is estimated that more
than half a million bales are now ready
for export. IF one halfOC this quantity
were speedily exported, it would have
salutary effect upon our business anC
our finances, and would in the end hav,
a favorable reaction upon the price o
articles that are of prime necessity. /
is therefore to be hoped that the en-
r HANGED prices abroad will induce tn
, holders of cotton forthwith to ship
portion of the surplus on hand, and tina
5 we shall ere long experience favorabl
t Influences in consequence.

CoNF1sCATED COTTON - Important y
True.-The special to the Philadelphia
Ledger of the 8th says
constructions have been issued to the
recognized agents of the government not
to take a bale Of cotton that had been
impressed by the late rebel government
unless it could. be proved that the par
ties who owned it had received an equl-
valent therefor from the Richmond au-
! thorities, In such case the cotton
would revert to the United States as its
lawful: property but where no payment
had ever been made, the cotton, even
though it had been impressed, was not
to be touched. This action is highly
favorable one for the South.
have heard SOutherners mention
within a few days that it was no
unlikely but what their cotton loan deb
would ultimately be paid, and proof IL
this direction was offered in the fac
that most of the bonds owned in Rich
mond had been withdrawn from sale
, According to this there must still b
some surreptitious dealing in rebe
promises to pay in that supposed loya
, city.
8 The President,it is said, has declined t
5 accede to the request of Mayor Kennel
and his friends for the removal of Gel
Candy. There is probably not an Office
whose military conduct has been mol
thoroughly commended than this Ger
eral, and he will no doubt be retained

VERY SHARP PRAcTICB.-As an M
stance Of sharp practice, it is related
that merchant going to America ana
back went to an immense office and
wished to insure separately 1000 cigars,
valued at $1,000, against loss by fire or

After the lapse of six months he made
his appearance at the insurance office

had been burned.
