Friday Evening Oct. II, 1866.
C0TToN-The market continues very firm, with
q steady tendency to higher quotations. Offerings
light, and the assortment ia still considered un-
desirable, but the demand shows increased activ-
ity and almost every list that was offered for sale
to-day has been absorbed at steadily enhancing
figures, till factors had realized further advance
of fully lc. per pound upon every classification in
the market. AdVices from New York are highly
encouraging for holders Of the staple, but the
cable is still silent, and we are left in doubt as
to the condition of the Liverpool market. The
rumors of private kilograms having been received
quoting material improvement in the.Iatter, are,
as stated in our last, very generally believed
though not yet confirmed, however, and it is moi
improbable that they contribute in part to keep up
thepresent excitement. The sales to-day amounted
to 275O bales, but they were like yesterday opera
tons, considerably augmented in outdoor reports
as may be inferred from the fact that one party
was credited with 1900 bales, who had purchased
only 35O but we, as usual, discard rumors, and
now present the closing quotations this evening
which have been carefully revised to correspond
with the advance in rates to-day, as follows, viz
low ordinary 26@29c., ordinary 81 @33c, good ordi
nary 35@36c., low middling 380139c., and middlne
40@-. The sales for the week footup 10 500 bales
against l0,500 bales last week and l260O bale!
the week previous. The net receipts for the weel
were ll,94l bales, against 1905 bales last weel
and 42O8 bales the week previous. The exports
for the week have been restricted to 9789 bales
against 10, ,252 bales last week and 53O3 bales til,
week previous and the stock on hand and OF
shipboard, not cleared this evening, is 81 ,94
bales, against 1852 bales last week and 90, ,93
bales at the close of the previous week. The ex
ports for the week comprise PSI bales for New
York, 1177 bales for Boston, and l0l bales TO
Baltimore.

BRIDGE OVER SNAKE RIvER.-The Mon
tana Democrat says the Eagle Rock Bridge
ever Snake River is now completed and wag-
ons are crossing regularly This is said to
be one of the most important improvements
on the road from Salt Lake to Montana
The bridge IS described as situated eight
miles below the ferry, and crosses a very narS
row canon through which the river runs.
The bridge has been pronounced equal to
any so ton railroad bridge in the east. A
single sslfsupOrting span crosses the main
channel. The balance of the bridge, which
is on dry land, except in high water times,
rests on trestle work.

FruIt, on rhe wan.

The country is feaping the benefits of the
protracted civil war. The land is desolate
with hideous outrages. For this the authors
of the rebellion are responsible. All this
was foretold. 1t was known that at the close
of the great struggle many thousands Of
soldiers, on being released, would have no
ready resources for gaining livelihood, and
having their vicious propensities encouraged
by the experiences through which they had
passed, would, in all probability, resort to
desperate measures. From the moment that
the general disbandment began, we have had
little to chronicle but outrages OF the most
terrible character; nor do we believe that
the offer of immediate employment would
have greatly altered the case. All our Eas-
tern exchanges, without single exception,
TEEN with &C cunts of murder, rape and riot.
In some cases whole family is extermina-
ted in others returned husband finds his
wife in the arms of paramour, and executes
summary justice on the spot. Or bis daugh-
ter is enticed away, or his business has been
diverted from him-in either case the ready
resort is the revolver. Then, again, a dis
honest wife, finding her pleasures likely to
be interfered with by the unexpected return
of liege lord to her embraces, adopts the
readiest means of releasing herself Some
thing disagrees with him, and he dies. The
official army lists give certain record of a
definite number of victims, but when they
have finished their task, the tale is half told.
Were we to guide ourselves by the record
we should infer that some six hundred thou
sand persons on either side had fallen during
the war. But the record takes No note of the
innumerable deaths that have occurred aris-
ing from contingencies growing out of the
war First, the widows and orphans whose
hearts have been broken and whose means IF
obtaining an honest livelihood had been de-
stroyed by the prolonged absence of their
natural protectors-twere the task of a year
at least to decipher their gravestones. Then
the deaths that have taken place from causes
promoted by the immoral and reckless habits
induced by the sudden disbanding of so many
fighting men, some of them inflicted under
the most aggravated circumstances these
alone would fill a volume. We have referred
to the subject only to assist in accounting for
the singular increase Of crime, aud to prove
that wars of any kind are in themselves
curse to the nation Whic b encourages them
There is always, in every community, nu.
merOus class ready for deeds of ruth and
violence, whose dispositions, we may be as.
sured, are not improved by participation in
scenes OF slaughter and carnage. We trust
it may be many years before the country is
again involved in civil war One or two more
like that through which We have just passed
would destroy the national character, and it
will require the lapsesof at least one genera
tion to cOunteract the evil already inflicted

ESSENTIALS TO SUCCESS IN FARMING
Luther H. Tucker of the Country Gentle
men, ,and Professor of Agriculture in the New
jersey Scientific School, in recent lecture
on the subject of Ofagrioultura education, stat.
ed that an advanced condition of agriculture
requires four essentials-two of them in the
man and two of them in the circumstances
under which he is placed They are: L. En-.
ergy; 2. Intelligence; 5. Good markets 4.
Capital, Energy perseverance,, and d9ternin-
alton are among the primary requisites Of
successful agriculture. The greater the de-
gree Of intellect to guide the will, the higher
the end reached. Good markets are essen
tial to success 10 agriculture as in other pur>
suits. Capital is neediul to carry out inns
provments; and lack of it, like distance
from market, is circumstance external to
the farmer, which he cannot always control,
and which neither education, intelligence, nor
energy can at once remove

needle which had been for nearly four weeks

In few minutes he readily discovered the

through the skin, and it was easily removed.
1t was about two inches in length. The
