WASHINGTON. August 6.-The Joint Com
mittee Of retirement intend to commence
work in the middle Of this month. Among
the first subjects which they will investi-
gate is the corruption alleged in the dis
posal Of confscated and abandoned pro-
perty in the South by the Government
agents. The Congressional Investigating
Committee will hold its next session in
New York, for the purpose Of investigating
alleged frauds in the custom house.
It is noticeable feature in the bounty
bill, passed at the last session Of Congress,
The Fourth Auditor is constantly in receipt
of letters from sailors who have been in
the service, requesting information as to
whether the law does not apply to them;
but the answer is, that under this Act, no.
thing can be done towards equalizing their
bounties.

The Cotton Crop.

The Houston (Texas) Telegraph, of
the Oath, says:
Gentlemen from every section of
the State, with whom we have con-
versed. represent the cotton as very
promising. The breadth of land in
cotton is large, and the weed thrifty.
On many plantations, the bolls are
beginning to open. The great dan
ger apprehended is from the ravages
OF the worm. The existence of the
worm, in plantations on the coast
country, has been announced for
three or four weeks. They have not
been as destructive, by any means, as
anticipated. From many fields, they
have disappeared, though their re-
appearance, in larger numbers, and,
of course, with greater damage to the
crops, is much and justly feared. A
planter, whom we conversed with
yesterday, reports his having seen
them on his plantation, on the Colo
rado, few miles below Columbus.
From present appearances, he antici-
pates they will make n clean sweep
of his cotton, and, also, of that on
other plantations in his neighbor-
hood. AS the more interior districts
OF the State are much less subject to
the ravages of the cotton worm than
the coast Counties, we may pretty
safely hope that the aggregate crop
OF Texas will be considerable.
The New Orleans Picayune, of the
2Sth, has the following:
THE COTTON WoRM.-There ap-
pears to be . great deal of anxiety,
on both sides of the river, about the
cotton worm. A short time ago, it
was ann ounced to have made its ap-
pearance near Nachitoches, and then
1t was authentically denied. And so
1T has been in many places, both in
this State and in Texas. This morn
ing, was handed to us, by one of our
most respectable firms, letter, dated
Natchez, July 25, in which the writer
says:
We learned, yesterday, that the
genuine cotton worm had made it's
appearance on several plantations be-
low here; and, if they should spread,
as they usually do, commencing so
early, we feel that they will entirely
destroy the crop. There is no mis-
take about the appearance of this
worm. One was brought to town by
Mr.. G. w. Green and examined by
Or. Harper with microscope, and
found to be the genuine cotton worm.
We will write you further on Satur-
day.

The Riots AT New ORLEANs.-The
negro riots at New Orleans are the
results of the efforts of the radicals
: to breed mischief between the whites
and blacks at the South. The revi-
val Of the old scheme of a negro con-
vention was undoubtedly part of a
plot to excite the people. That the
re dicals knew all about it in advance,
IS evident from the recent speech of
General Banks upon the Mississippi
levees: He opposed the appropria-
ton for the levees on the ground
that the negroes of the South would
soon rise against "their oppressors,
and that the levees would again be
destroyed during the struggle; and
ne concluded by promising the blacks
the assistance of the Government
when the contest came These in
cendiary remarks clearly foreshadow-
ed the present riots. When the con-
nection of General Banks with the
original convention, whose revival
has caused all this trouble, is remem-
bered, his speech is the more sicni-
ficant.
In the war of races which the radi
Gals are seeking to inaugurate, the ne
groes will certainly be annihilated
The fate reserved for them under
radical rule IS that which the In
dlans encountered under the tender
mercics of the Puritans. The New
Orleans riots are but the beginning
OF the annoyances to which the
country will be subjected so long as
the destructives continue to stir up
strife by trying to force tho blacks
INTO social and political equality
with the whites. Such an equality
can never be brought about in this
generation or the next. The majority
OF our people consider it contrary to
the laws Of nature. Neither can the
radicals create any sympathy for the
negro by claiming that only rebels
and copperheads have any antipathy
to him. In Boston itself, the very
not-bed of radicalism, a negro is not
permitted to sit at the same table
with the whites. A wealthy colored
man, from Liberia, has just made the
experiment, and has been excluded
from the hotels and boarding houses.
1t Is useless to argue against nature.
The new civil war may come, but the
negroes will be destroyed and the
radicals will reap no political benefit
from the disturbance, and may think
themselves happy if they escape the
amp'posts.-Ner York Herold.

ST. MARKS FAR.-Thc ladies' who at
this time make arrangements for holding a
Fair find their ingenuity and skill severely
taskcd to invent some scheme which shall
sIlrpass all that has been done ut all pre-
cedng Fairs, and it is astonishing how III
each instance they contrivc some new idea
which is original and interesting. At each
Fair there are new combinations of fancy
articles, new arrangements OF the gally-
dressed tables, new temptations III the way
of cakes and creams and the ladies OF st.
Marks Fair may fairly ask for that patro-
mage which untiring lahorS merit.
One Of the great attractions at the Far
of which we are speaking is the JdcooS
Wen. which has been already noticed IN
this paper. Its arrangement is SlnSularly
beautiful, and it is pronounced really more
tasteful than that which made so great an
impression at the Baltimore Fair. Refresh
mcnts of every kind are furnished III
abundance, and for those who do not care
for confectionery, there is al abundance OF
useful and beautiful fancy articles, while
it must be remembered that as all the arti-
clcs at the Fair are presents to the church,
they are being sold ut very low prices.
Call ut the corner of Eighth and Main, and
when once surrounded by the ladies OF the
Fair. Won will not be hurried III leaving or

CoycrgT on MONDAY NIGHT AT THE CLAY

CoScERT Oy MONDAY NIGHT AT THE CLAY
STREET METHODIST CHURCH.-This concert,
which had been looked forward TO with con-
siderable interest, particularly as II was for
the benefit of the Sunday school attached
to the church, took place on Monday night
last with complete success. The chnrch
was beautifully decorated with evergreens
interspcrscd with flowers, and the tasteful
manner in which they were arranged proved
conclusivciy that the ladies of the church
had directed the work. To convey some
idea of the extent of the decorations, il
may be mentioned that no less than n wa
Con load of flowers was made use of i'm or.
namenting the church.
The church was we'll filled, and from the
moment that the anthem We Wat for
Thv loving Kindness was commenced
until the close of the concert the audience
showed degree of attention and discrimi-
nation that was evidence enough that even
the most critical persons present were
both pleased and gratified. Bless he Lord,
.! NJ .Som was well sung by the choir, and
what are the Wild Wares Saying, which,
by the way, it seems will never be out OF
date, was sung with great expression by
two lady amateurs. The solo Rocked Ia the
Crd,Re Of the Deep was sung with great
force, power, and cultivation by Mr.. }. W.
Caldwell, a gentleman of fine musical ta-
lent and taste. .Je,orah's Praise was well
executed. and so was the solo and quar-
tettc Guide Ne, o Thou Great Jehouah, in
which Mr.. V. l.. Fore gained considerable
applause. The gem of the evening, how
ever, was the duet / Uare Wandered in
M Dreams, by lady amateurs. It's repc-
tition was demanded, and bouquets were
thrown at the feet of the fair singers until
the platform seemed fairly covered with
them. All the choruses and part songs, in
which the choir of the church were en-
gagged, were sung with precision and at
tcntiOn to light and shade which did credit
to their training, and Mr.. Bozzotra played
the accompaniments upon the cabinet
organ throughout the evening with great
taste and facility of execution. 1t was
late when the concert terminated, but 1t
had met with perfect success, and feel
ing of unalloyed pleasure was left in the
mind of every person who had been pre-
sent. Mr.. Cardwcll, the conductor, ar
ranged the concert and supcrintcndcd the
whole performance and to his experience
and good management Is due III no shall
degree the success with which the concert
was attended.
\ great many persons were prevented
by the work ut Hollywood Cemetery from
being present at the concert, and as they
were very anxious to do so, we suggest to
the managers of the late concert that they
repeat it and we think We can promise
them as good an audience as upon the first
occasion.
