We learn from our correspondents that
IN certain places the negroes imagine
that they are to be paid four shilIings as
a compensation for each stripe, and that
a large sum is to be given to every one
for each of his relations killed in the re-
beIllon. Hence Quashie who has an
eye to the chance of obtaining money so
easily, is quite prepared to assert, and
we are sorry to say il, TO "Swear" that he
received any number of stripes, and the
proyerbially long list of "aunties, cousins,
hredders," and other relations, which a
negro under any circumstances ever
claims, is enlarged Ivy him SO as to
embrace every man or woman who

Royal Commissioners are tired of hearing
the same tale day after day from people

The BATTLE OF SINoPE.-The Cron-
Stadt Messenger has the following arti-
cle:-"On November Is the Russian fleet
celebrated the battle Of Sinope, one of
the greatest triumphs of the Russian ma
Wy. Admiral Novossilsky, commander
in-chief of the port, gave, in remembrance
of that memorable day, a = grand dinner to
all the old sailors of SebaStOpol and ST.
nope now present at Crons!adt. The
admiral is himself one Of the heroes of
that naval fight he it was who com
manded the second column of the Russian
fleet, composed Of the ships of the line
Paris, Tri Svialit6lia, ard ROstisIaW. The
battle of Sinope wi. always remain a
grand feat in the history of the Russian
navy it was the last battle in which
sailing vessels took any part the last
also Of those worthy Of figuring in history
by the side of the grand naval actions of
Aboukir, Trafalgar, and Nayarino."
A FORTUNATE SPECULATIoN-A short
time since a large ship, laden with cotton,
was wrecked on the coast of Ireland, and
when the agent of the underwriters visit
ed the wreck he found that the cotton
was unpacked and floating upon the
waves on the rugged shores opposite
Rosscarherry. The sea was whitened for
miles with 500 tons of cotton, which it
was determined to offer for sale by auction.
The highest bidder proved to be IA Liver
pool Spectator, who was sufficiently VEN
turesome TO offer $3.50, or los. per ton,
for the whole quantity. At this figure it
was knocked down to him, and he at once
set to work to secure The cotton which
had been thus cast upon the waters. The
sea brought it to the shore as fast as it
could be picked up, and soon fifty acres
of land were covered with the produce of
the cargo, and nearly a hundred men and
women were employed in turning it about,
after the manner Of making hay, until it
was dry. It was then piled up in enor-
nous ricks and ultimately shipped for Ii
~verpool. In this way nearly the whole
was saved, and the cotton bought at los.
per ton was sold for sd. per h., or about
ESQ per ton. The lucky Spectator, after

seven or eight hundred people in this District
who are weekly readers of the LxDaER, not
more than one fourth of that number pay for
the information they CLEAN from its coimns
To such ruinous extent is this being practiced
upon us, that we feel duty bound however pain
iul to revert to these facts, to give publicity to
the matter. We are aware of instances in
wh.ch our paper ia handed around to i've or
six families, in more than one nei: ei:hborhood d :;
others, where persons who never have subscri,

OF what appears in its columns, seemingly,
more eager to get the news than any one else.
In these remarks we have not the slightest al
luson to our former patrons who are without

Planting Season.

The day Of preparation for planting is at
hand. Everybody seems busy, and have gone
to work with new impulse and big expecta,
tons as to the enormous profits expected to be
realized fr IN the growth OF cotton. Corn Is
not spoken oC-not in the programme. In fac t,
from present indications, il seems that no grain
beyond the actual wants Of the producer will
be calculated on In this section. With tax
of FIVE cents per pousd OIL the raw cotton, as
sessed by the U. s. Government, beside heS-
Wy tax by the State, we think the man sensible
who pays some attention to the culture Of e
large grain crop. Wheat is represented as
looking better than for several years past.

IMPoRTAnr-LANDs on TIE CoAsr.-

says:
The question having been submitted to
Gen. Sherman, who is nov here, AS TO
what lie meant by his military order
turning over the island lands ~ South
Carolina TO the negroes. lie has stated to
committee OF gentlemen from that State,
and also written a letter to the President.
that IT "ss only for temporary purposes,
and was not intended to last longer than
when pence was declared, and the rebels
laid down their aims and submitted to
the lass.
This fact is Of great Importance, as it
has been maintained by Legislators that
the reverse Of this was Gen. Sherman's
idea. lie also SAYS that he only intended
the lands to be used for the aged and
helpless freedmen, and he distinctly saws
that the title Of the freedmen could last
only 50 long as The wa: lasted.
