THE SUPPLY OF COTTON.

The supply of cotton remaining Oh hand in
the South at the close Of the war, proves to
have been larger than was at first supposed ,
and an active business is now carrying on at
the Southwest in consequence As long as this
residum lasts, there will BE lively time in
its shipment, and the interchange Of oommod-
tiles.
But when the existing supply is gene, we
fear that the culture for the present year will
fail to make up half Of the deficiency and
that dull times and business prostration in
this cotton growing section, must eusue.-
The needful labor for the crop cannot be sup
piled in due season this year. The negroes
will probably not do more than third Of the
work they formerly performed, aud suitable
white labor cannot be got in the cotton fields
in single season. We therefore anticipate
diminished stock of the staple and higher
prices, before the close Of the present year,

WILLIAMSBURG.

We congratulate our friends in the metropo-
lis Of the Peninsula, on the following piece of
good fortune, as disclosed recently in Eng
land:
ga fund has accumulated in England for
the benefit of the "Mattey School," near Will
liamsburg, Virginia. Correspondence just sent
to the State Department by Mr.. Adams, shows
that in l741, Mary Whaley, of Bruton, near
Williamsburg in Virginia, bequeathed to the
minister and church wardens of the parish CT
bruton and their successors, piece of land in
that parish containing about ten acres, on
which were erected a school-house called Mat
tey's school, and dwelling-houss for the mas
ter, upon trust, to continue the same, for the
use of the said school, viz, and to teach the
neediest children of the said parish in the art
of reading writing and arithmetic, to be called
Matteys school forever" After lawsuit il
England, the will was proved, and the accu-
INFLATED fund now amounts to S12,755

WHICH IS THE UNION PARTY !?

The attempt, on the part of the small faction
of Radicals in Virginia, to array the people Of
this State against President johnson, is as di-
verting as it is impudent. This Insignificant
band is made up of the cotton men and camp
followers of the Federal-army, who, trusting
to the magnanimity of our people, have ven
tured to settle upon our soil, and purpose, if
permitted, to carry on their nefarious practices
III the future as they have done, SO success
fully, in the past.
We are told that movement is now on foot
in Richmond to organize an unconditional
Union party" and the hope is expressed that
it will be made up of uncompromising ele-
ments"
Here we find the Radicals setting up the
claim to be the exclusive Union men, when, at
the same time, they are trying to break down
President johnson and the real Union men Of
the country who are supporting him.
1t is high time that the people of the South
were laying to heart the lessons taught them
by the results of the war.
If, in accordance with the advice of the gal
liant Wise, we had have taken tie old Star
Spangled Banner, and fought under it Gin the
Union" we should have this day had an-undi-
vided country, and the true lovers of the Union
would now be in possession of the Government.
Let us not again be deluded. Let the real
Union men of the South rally around Presi-
dent johnson; and if the Radicals persist in
making war upon him and the reunion OF these
States, let them be kicked out in the cold, and
follow Sumner and Stevens on their race of
disunion.
We would ask, in all sincerity, the moderate
men now in Virginia, be they from the North
or the South, what have we to look for in the
future, if the measures proposed by Sumner
and Stevens are to prevail?
Assuredly, we may look for broken down
currency, a divided nation, a war of races and
the utter humiliation of business in all sections
Of our land.
Are these things to be weighed in the bal
ance against the question whether the negroes
be allowed to vote a few years sooner or few
years later?
We appeal to the good sense Of our people,
and feel assured that if they win give reason
fair play, they will not be led into any sham
Union party by the miserable trickstors who
are attempting to build it up.

follows " 1t seems to us as hard to get in the
Union as it is to get out The South respect
fully asks to move ole way or the other We
are like the fellow that was forced to 90 to
the show, and then not allowed to go any
farther than where he bad paid for his ticket.
We have been dragged into the doorway of.
the Federal tent, anG are not allowed to see
any of the performance except to settle with
the tax collectors. We can hear the animals
growing inside, and the cracking of the ring
masters whip, but we can't see the show un-
less we pay for two, and take in a colored
lady. Aud the worst of it is, they keen A
great eagle perched over the entrance, which,
if you attempt to go back, swoops upon you,
and picks hole in your head. We Justly
think this is unreasonable; they ought either
let us pass in or refund our money and tie up
the eagle" ...

Whether an Austrion force, however, is to

which deprive him OF the use of tie other. A
