THE FRENCH EXPOSITION
DR 1857.

An Association, collateral to the Imperial
Commission, has been founded in Paris, with
a capital Of 100000, to aid persons engaged
in agriculture, manufactures, and various indus.
tries, who desire to visit the Exposition for the
purpose of studying it in connection with their
particular interests, but who are not able to
afford the whole expense which it involves.
The Association proposes to do this by making
contracts with railroad and steam navigation
companies, with hotel and clearinghouse keep
ers, and they will furnish tickets covering all Of
the necessary expenses of visit to the Expo.
sition.
We trust that q similar organization will
be started in this country by some Of our
responsible and benevolent citizens-not as q
stockjobbing concern, but from enlightened
and patriotic considerations. We are con.
WINGED that all of our heavy manufacturers
would find it to their interest to encourage the
formation Of clubs among their workmen for
the purpose Of enabling the most skillful to go
to Paris under the auspices of responsible
society. We would add another feature to
the objects of the Association: namely, the es.
Enlistment of prizes in our various institutes
of learning. Let there be number of prizes
founded in the Cooper Institute, the Free
Academy, the School Of Mines Of Columbia
College, the Polytechnic Institutes Of Phila'
delphia and Troy, the Institute Of Technology
of Boston, and other similar schools, granting
tickets with all the necessary coupons attached,
enabling the scholar who passes the best exam
nation to visit Paris for the study Of the Expo
sition free of all cost. If this business is man.
aged by men of undoubted position and integ-
rity, it cannot fail of success. A plan of or
ganization ought to be adopted at once, in order
to give year to the competitors to work for
the splendid prize. Who will come forward to
initiate movement Of this characterl MIR. j.
C. Derby, the United States agent of the Paris
Exposition, No. 40 Park-row, will lend such an
association every aid in his power, and furnish
pamphlets giving all requisite information.

CHOLERA IN THE WEST INDIES.

The appearance of the cholera, or of disease
resembling it, in some of the West Indian
islands, may suggest to our quarantine au.
thoritics the necessity for extra precautions and
scrutiny. Perhaps we should find it more diff.
cult to enforce an effectual quarantine against
West Indies trading vessels than against almost
any others. They are nuperous, and comprise
all sorts of craft, which slip in and out Of port
comparatively unnoticed. The scanty inteili.
gence which we CLEAN from our Jamaica and
Bermuda exchanges does not make it certain the
cholera itself has reached any of the islands.
A disease resembling it and not less malig.
nant or fatal than the cholera made its first
appearance at Point-a-Pitre, on the island of
Guadeloupe, on the 22d October, and extended
thence to Martinique. A ship from Marseilles
is reported to have brought it to GuadelOupe.
The Bermuda Gazette reports 375 deaths from
the 10Th to the 23d November, the number at
Point.a.Pitre alone being las. A letter dated
at that town on the 10th reckoned the deaths
at 80 to 80 daily. The disease was first sHp:
posed to be fever peculiar to swampy places,
but developed into much more virulent form.
There were not labOrers enough to bury the
dead, and the Governor was obliged to call in
the military. Half the people had abandoned
the town.
There are no particulars Of the actual pres
ence of this disease at any other of the islands.
The Governor of Guadeloupe at its first out.
break sent word to the neighboring authorities,
and rigid quarantine has been ever since ell.
forced. The mail steamers neither receive nor
land passengers there, and the mails ore fumi.
gated before being opened. The latest report
from Guadeloupe ave.s that the deaths average
l3l day. There may be some exaggeratiOn
in this, but it is well to be on the safe side in
the matter of precautions.
Gov. Fenton yesterday sent timely message
to the Legislature, transmitting the report Of
the Quarantine Commissioners and Health Off.
Ger, and calling attention to the request Of the
Commissioners for moDet to provide tempo.
rary facilities such as are now wanting ct quar-
antine. The sum required, $4,000, is q triae
when the importance Of the subject and the pos
sible results of neglect are considered. The
want Of suitable place for detention ofquaran.
tined passengers was keenly felt in the Atlanta
case, and in one way or another ought to be i'm
mediately supplied.

The Suffrage Bill. which passed the House
last week, will probably come before the Senate
after the Freedman's Bill is disposed Of. There
is. of course, no question Of its passage, nor is
there any doubt among those best informed OF
Washington that it will receive the Presidents
signature. Some of the Democrats affect to
believe that it will be vetoed, as some Northern
journals, which are not Democratic, would per-
shade the President that that would be popu-
lar measure on his part. He probably knows
better, and will give his assent to bill which
has the universal appreciation Of loyal Northern
people.

The Erening Post-thoroughly comprehend
ing that the radical difference between MIR. Z.
L. vallandigham and The TRIBUNE is this
that We have always said and done what we
considered most conducive to the triumph Of
Universal Liberty, while Mr.. VS. polar. star has
been the perpetuation and ratification OF Negre
Slavery. No honest statement of our respective
views and positions can ignore this vital dis
tinction.

tons with and written letters to M. MERCER
saying that the people are tired of the War,
ready to welcome French mediation, &C., and

Possibly so; but The Posts ignorance Is
willful and inexcusable. 1t had only to turn
to its file of THE TRIBUNE and there read oul
express contradiction of the calumny, for which
The Times never pretended to have any au.
thority whatever.
1t is quite possible that The Post sustained
the War for the Union on grounds antagonist
to that fundamental right of people to the
Government of their own choice which our
fathers made the cornerstone Of their Declare.
ton Of Independence. 1t has perfect right to
choose its own ground, SO long as it allows us
to justify and uphold the War as waged, not
for the subjugation but the Liberation of the
Southern people - not to overthrow but to
vindicate the great truth that governments de.
rive their just power from the subsiSting con.
sent of the governed.

COTTON.PLANTING.


So many have written US asking information
as to the prospects and profits of Cotton.Plant-
ing at the South that we propose-being unable
to answer their inquiries specifcally-to set
forth the little that We know on the subject,
leaving every one interested to make what be
can oft.
The leading facts are as follows:
]. Cotton is now selling at prices nearly equal
to 40 cents in gold for Fair Upland, when it is
known that the average cost of producing the
staple does not exceed 10 cents (gold) per
pound. This is the great fact.
2. Cotton land is abundant at the South,
and may be bought or hired at moderate rates.
Five Millions of bales Zone Million tuns) Of the
staple were grown in 1860; and it is not sup
posed that more than half so much will be
grown in 1866. And, if not, the price can
hardly fall below IS cents (gold).
g. Labor is abundant at the South, and good
Cotton hands can be hired there OF $40 to $40
per month beside shelter, meal and meat. And
at such prices all that can be obtained for Cot
ton over 10 cents per pound ought to be divided
between Rent and Profit
4. The negroes will gladly work for employ
ers who are likely to treat them well, as they
Tin their innocence) suppose all Northern men
will, of course. Some OF them, who have been
cruelty treated of old, and especially those who
have been cheated out Of their earnings since
they were free, are reluctant to engage with
their old masters or other Southerners; but
even these can generally find hands if they
will. If any choose to employ Whites, they can
generally be suited by making proper effort.
5. As to location, we think well OF Arkansas,
South. Eastern Missouri, West Tennessee, North
ern Georgia, with portions of Alabama, Florida
and Texas. South Carolina, lower Virginia.
Mississippi, and the greater part Of Louisiana
seem to evince bitterness, sullenness, and
vengeful brooding over the downfall Of Slavery
and the Confederacy. We presume this spirit
is not universal, even in these localities; but il
is certain that there are many neighbOrhoods,
and even whole counties, wherein immigrant;
from the North would not be allowed to hire
negroes, buy land and grow Cotton undisturbed
But we cannot undertake to say positively
where such immigrants would and where they
would not be welcomed. Personal inquiry
must determine. Suffice it that we are conf
dent he who chooses to grow Cotton, knows
how, and has the requisite means, can easily
find favorable location.
6. As to going South without money, or witt
very little, and trying to grow Cotton, we could
not recommend it. No one must expect TO de
better in year than to double his capital
whatever it may be.
7. As to time, it is not yet too late, but soOr
will be. A month hence will be too late to SCI
out.
8. Whoever puts seed into the ground braves
the risks Of frost, drouth, hail, wind, insects
&C., &c. Nothing future is absolutely certain
but we believe growing Cotton in 1866 affords
as fair prospect of profit as any other business

England is never at loss to make everything
material available. She likes money and mus.
Gle, and never objects to pay for them. The
problem with the Englishman is-how can En-.
gland have alP the good things in the world
all the military power and naval supremacy at
the smallest cost. She has an empire in India
and wants to hold it with little trouble. As
long as fortunes were to be made by cadets in
the East Indian service, there was never much
anxiety to find proper candidates for the Hindec
service. That day has passed. Young En-
glshmen do not want to run the risk Of being
baked under an Indian sun, or having theil
livers dried up without having an opportunity
Of making fortunes-and now there is much
trouble in filling the Indian contingent. Ac.
cordingly, we notice the very English sugges.
ton that negro regiments DO recruited in the
West Indies and sent to the East Indies to take
the place of the English infantry and the Sc
poys. The loyalty of the Sepoys is not above
suspicion, and there is no knowing when there
may be another instruction, especially if an.
other Mana Sahib can be found to lead it.
The writer who makes this suggestion says that
"the negro race sin every way SO different from
the native Hindoos and their Mohammedan con.
querors, that If this negro force be judiciously
treated by Government there would be no feal
Of its sympathizing with native disafection. y
This suggests very English way Of managing
colonial affairs. When the Hindoos rebel, the
Jamaica Maroons may be called in to punish
them. When the negroes are mutinous, force
of sepoys can be found to butcher them. II
Australia becomes unruly, England can buy
Hessians to do her killing; and if Ireland is in
trouble with the Fenians the Canadians can be
armed with power to shoot and hang. 80
England rules by playing of nationality against
nationality, and prejudice against prejudice.
Mr.. Bull presides over all, counting his money
and gathering in his commercial receipts.
