BETTER THAN THE EIMPoRrED.-The Brown
Windsor and Honey Soap of Colgate 81 Co.,
New York, are superior to the imported
articles. This is not mere assertion, but
has been tested by long and careful analy-
Sis. This being the case, the domestic
article should certainly be purchased in
preference to any imported goods. Ameri-
can industry should always be encouraged,
when, as III this case, it presents commen-
dable goods for public approval.

COTTON CRop IN GEORGIA. AND
TE1As.-A letter from the heart of
Georgia gives very gloomy accounts
of the prospects OF the cotton crop,
and adds that it is doubtful whether
the yield of the State exceeds 15O,-
900 bales. The very highest estimate
is 100000 bales, which is less than
one-third of the growth OF 1857 and
1860. In Lavacn County. Texas, a
writer says the worms and weather
have cut tho crop short, but if the
planters can get the negroes to work
and save the crop there will be over
half an average made.

BISHOP GREGG.-We take the fol-
lowing from the New Orleans Pico-
yune:
4 wide circle of friends, especially
in this State and in South Carolina,
and generally throughout the coun-
try, will regret to learn of the heavy
domestic af1iction that has Just be-
fallen Bishop Gregg, OF the Episco-
pal Diocese of Texas. The cholera
has broken ont suddenly at San An
tonic. his residence; and, AS it
always Is in that limestone water
section, has proven very fatal.
Among its victims, we learn by Il
private letter, is the Bishops eldest
daughter and her husband. They
had but lately been married. BY the
vicissitudes Of the war, the Bishop
lost his eldest son-a blow that nearly
prostrated him. Tins additional and
grievous stroke will call for all the
patience and Christian fortitudc this
truly anliable and excellent minister
is so emincntly. endowed with We
tender him our heartfelt sympathy
in his severe trial.

lican in Congress means to admit the
ten waiting States simply on the
adoption of that amendment. These
States are to be admitted on no con-
ditions short of the equal political
rights of their loyal citizens, without
distinction of race. A reconstruction
OF the Union on any other basis
would be national dishonor. Until
the rebel States can come back on
this basis, they shall not come back
at oil. "
There is the truth, unpalateuble as
it may be, boldly spoken. The
Southern States may come in when
they make the negroes voters-and
not before. Then we should say,
don't go "back at all" The Prcsi-
dent has, in several messages, assert
ed that the question of suffrage must
be left where the Constitution leaves

last vestigc of State rights be yielded
to the demands of fanatic;sm or the
designs OF intriguing politicians. Let
South Carolina, like her younger
sister, Texas, reject the humiliatipg
amendment, which the Secretary
of State, through official courtesy,
forwarded to the Governors on the
several States-that is, when Gov.
Orr submits it to the Legislature for
their consideration.

PEEsoSAL-AFFAIRs N TIE SoUIH.-EIr. r.
T. Mellen has returned from a second tour
through some OF the Southern States, and
reports that on the whole he sees an i'm
provement in those he visited in respect to
the progress Of schools, the success of free
labor, and the loyalty of the people. He
does not think the veto of the Freedmen's
Bureau Bill viii have a bad effect on the
South. The working Of the present system
Of the Freedmen's Bureau, althounh some
what limited, is sufficient for the protection
of the freedmen. All the able bodied freed
men are employed, and their wages are
being inceeased on account of the scarcity
of labor. He speaks hopefully of the pros
perity of the South. There is an improved
feeling towards the North, and q dosire for
Northern Immigration. The schools that
have been established are very prosperous,
and SOM Of them soon Will be s~elf-sustain-
ing, as the colored people, who are receiv-
ing wages, insist upon paying tuition for
their children.
Mr.. Mellen viii set out, in about a week,
on another visit to the South, to superin-
tend the distribution of supplies to the
freedmen.
