DERMIT me to acknowledge the many
Il kind notices of myself and the pro-
posed enterprise to establish an Agricultu-
raj nd Family Newspaper, and to assure
you, gentlemen, that with your liberal aid,
there is every probability that the RURAL
SOUTHERNER will make its debut in few
weeks. few gentlemen are actively at
work for it, and if few such men in each
District would make little effort, the en-
terprise would be secured.
The present condition Of our labor will
cause our farmers and planters to seek out
such implements as will enable them to
reduce the number of laborers, and, as far
as possible, make themselves independent
of the most unreliable and unruly To aid
them in this desirable object, practical and
intelligent planter, connected with the
RURAL, will be assigned the duty of
searching for and testing the many labor
saving implements now used in all parts OF
our country, and report upon them through
our columns. Those found adapted to our
section will be finely illustrated, and ar
rangements will be made by US with the
manufacturers to supply our farmers and
planters with them at the lowest prices. In
this way, liberal support of the RURAL
will secure q practical benefit to the South
crn people.
To accomplish these good intentions, the
RURAL. must first receive L reasonable
assurance of support. All we ask is 2, 500
good subscribers. Surely our farmers and
planters can give US that number to secur o
80 great benefits to themselves.

Before I close my letter, must
enter into few explanations of terms
used in Paris for certain articles Of
dress, without which your readers
would fancy themselves in the dark.
A ceinture tallien or tallien belt is
nothing but long broad plaid or
chine sash. The ceinture russo (Rus-
sian belt) is made of black corded
silk, with ends, or rather tails, on
each side, rosette behind, and Rus
sian clasp in front. Aceinture espag-
mole Spanish belly has three tails be-
hind. The Lauzun trimming means
flowing loops of ribbon on the shoul-
ders. These are newest accessories.
Vandykes and festoons are seen on
everything.

Information Wanted,

The New York Herald wants some
information from Secretary Stanton,
before he retires from his post. 1t
says:
Secretary Stanton, it appears, is
about to exchange his position at the
head of the War Department for a
foreign embassy. Before he is turned
out of office and takes his departure
for Madrid, we hope he will send us
the report of Gen. Smith and James
t. Brady, which he holds, relative to
the condition of affairs in Louisiana
during the war. We are anxious to
know particularly all about the man
agement Of the cotton question and
the ingenious method by which Gen.
Butler managed to effect on exchange
with the rebels of provisions, percus-
sion caps and other little things-of
which they stood much in need about
that time-for rebel cotton. and what
became of the cotton thus received in
exchange. There are Il good many
other details Of this kind in connec-
ton with the management of affairs
IN Louisiana upon which Mr.. Stan
ooAi VAL SAiAiSo HICli VIC pitDllC DN lll :
nishing US with the report OF Gen.
Smith and Mr.. Brady; for instance,
the facts connected with Gen. Banks
Red River expedition. There is an
other pretty extensive cotton specu-
lation involved in that affair. Gen.
Banks, it seems, suffered great de-
feat on the Red River; but if he lost
good many men, it is said that he
got good many bales of cotton,
which might counteract the loss of
life IN the estimation of the radicals.
Then there is good deal of curiosity
about the late New Orleans riots
which the radicals concocted and
with which it is supposed Gen.
Banks had good deal to do, and he
was evidently we'll informed in ad-
vance of what was about to take
place and limited in q speech in Con
gress at the results which were after
wards accomplished.

An association has been formed in
Pennsylvania, the object Of which is
the reformation Of inebriates, and
the moral and social elevation of the
neglected classes. A large tract of
land is to be purchased, and neat and
commodious cottages are to be built
upon it. The enterprise requires
about 10000 for its establishment
upon scale which will insure its
extended usefulness But it will be
started as soon as $4,000 are con-
tributed.
The number of divorces in Con-
necticut increased from 1919 in 1850,
to 434 in 1864; and in fifteen years
the divorces have equalled one
twentieth the number of families in
the State. The large increase in
1S63-64 was caused by the marriage
of soldiers to abandoned women,
when about to start for the war, so
that their new wives might draw the
State bounty.

Legal Effect OF the Proclamation.
The New York World, of the 21st,
has the following remarks on this
subject:
The proclamation of President
johnson declaring the insurrection at
an end in all the States, is a COM
plete abdication of all the extraordi-
nary powers with which the Presi-
dent was clothed by Congress, dur
ing the war. This CONSEQUENCE
would have attended the previous
proclamation, only that did not in
clude Texas; and the insurrection
having been regarded by Congress as
one whole, and not rs series of
separate insurreeUcns in several
States, the extraordinary powers did
not expire SO long d there was any
place where the insurrection had not
been declared extinct. There were
only eleven States that seeded; but
in consequence of this local insurrec-
ton, confined to one section of the
country, the President was empow-
cred by Congress to suspend the
habeas corpus throughout the United
''e'eOS, VI tIl pay VI IliSlu, illti ILLS
power was vested in him till the end
of the rebellion. But Texas having
completed the construction of a
loyal State Government, and the
President having declared the ins,r-
rection at an end in that State, as
we'll as in all the others, the whole
system of military interference with
the regular course of law falls to the
ground, and things revert to the
condition in which they were before
the war
And now that the hideous system
has ended, we defy any man to look
back upon its history, and point out
an instance in which arbitrary ar
rests, overriding courts by martial
law, and shutting up newspaper
offices by files of soldiers. accom-
plished the slightest good, or has
tened, by single day, the successful
termination of the war
The New York World, of the same
date, in its comments, says:
The work is now complete as far as
Executive authority goes and the
condition of the States is concerned.
The proclamation of the President
has the effect of law, and all are
bound to respect it as such AS the
Executive power of the Republic, he
is the proper authority to judge of
the condition of the country. 1t is
the duty of Congress itself to accept
and act upon his official declaration.
