TUESDAY MORNING. MAY %, 1865.
THE FAIR.

Tho lady members of TRINITY Methodist
Church in this city have been very busy dur
ing the past few weeks, plying the needle
with their nimble fingers, and manufacturing
all kinds of curious fancy work. They and
their friends have engaged heartily in this
labor of love, and we have no doubt that
their efforts will be crowned with merited
success.
The Methodists have never heretofore had
q Fair in this city, and would not now resort
to this means of procuring aid, if times were
more prosperous, or if their members had
suffered less by the disasters incident to the
late war. It is we'll known that the Trinity
Church building was shelled for many months,
and severely injured; that the furniture Of
all kinds, gas fixtures included, was stolen,
and that consequently large outlay of mo.
ney was necessary to put the church into
thorough repair. This work has been done,
but is not yet paid for, and it is to meet this
claim that the lady members of the congre.
cation have nobly come forward, and con.
tributed of their substance.
We understand there will be many rare
and curious things on exhibition as the Fair
and we know that it will repay oil our read
ers to visit Hibernian Hall, and take q survey
of the Fair and its treasures We hope, there
fore, that they will all go; open their hearts
and their purse-strings, and take ample stock
in this excellent charitable enterprise.
The Fair is to commence ON Wednesday
might; and we feel assured it will be one O
tho most successful ever held in this CITY.

THE CANADIAN PARLIAMENT


On the 9th of June the Parliament of
Canada will assemble for business. The ses.
sion will be interesting, from the character
of the questions to be discussed and acted
upon. The Confederation scheme will be
pushed forward by its friends, and as earnestly
opposed by. the sepaFatists. The passage of
laws establishing free trade in certain COM
modities between British America and the
West Indies, British Guiana and possibly
Brazil, and the granting of subsidies for o
stee mship line connecting Halifax with diff.
ferent ports in the West India Islands, will
also claim the attention of the members of
the body. The fishery question and reoipro-
oal trade between the Canadian provinces
and the United States must likewise engross
the attention of those who, like us, are init.
mately and deeply interested in having these
questions settled in such manner as not to
disturb the business of the two countries in
the future. If the decision of the home au-
thorites should be that this 10 matter be-
longing principally to the provinces, and that
they must manage the negotiations, then the
coming meeting Of tho Canadian Parliament
will be Of intense interest to business mon in
both countries. The negotiations terminated
by tho withdrawal Of the Canadian agents
from Washington, can be reopened by some
wise and prudent proposition, and q fresh op
portunity offered for the trading and mercan.
tile interests of the two natione to drown the
clamor of politicians aad settle the oontro-
versy upon the basis Of mutual advantage

THE MEMPHIS RIOTS.

1t should be borne in mind that the riot at
Memphis was caused by negro soldiers, and
not by the resident negro population. The
Memphis Argus, remarking upon this faot,
pays high tribute to the colored people be-
longing in the city 1t says they have been,
through oil the troubles, as respectful, kindly
and amicably disposed, in their department
toward the whites, and in their general con-
duct, rs they ever were. Such has been their
uniform good conduct and bchavior-save in
few rare instances-that it has become the
theme of almost universal remark and if the
negro troops had never been quartered in the
city, such thing as q negro riot would have
been unknown. The Memphis avalanche also
speaks kindly of the permanent colored popu-
lation and protests against violence towards
them. 1t aays: -. The vengeance which has
been threatened the negro, if visited at all,
should be upon the unprincipled mon
who deluded him and brought all these
troubles upon his head. The negro is not to
blame. He deserves our sympathy. Let tho
negro who violates the law be punished ; but
the man who, in retaliation, perseoutes the
innocent on account of the transgressions of q
few bad men, is brute, and deserves punish
melt" This is the spirit of the Southern
press everywhere. And were it not for the
incendiary teachings of Freedmen's Bureau
agents and other radical emissaries there
would be no outbreaks on the part of the
negroes at the South-no jarring of conse-
quence anywhere there between the two
races.

THE GROWING COTTON DROP.

If we receive as truth half the reports that
reaoh us in regard to the growing Cotton
crop, the prospect must be regarded as de.
cidedly unfavorable In many sections OF
this State, US we'll as throughout the South.
orn Atlantic States, the seed sown has proved
worthless or nearly 80; and on the lower
Mississippi much injury has resulted from
high water. The difficulties, as o general
thing in securing regular labor, has caused
falling off in the estimates. From these
facts now before US, therefore, we must con.
clude that, unless very decided change
takes place in the condition of the CROP, esti.
mates of yield Of two millions of baies and
oyor must bo revised .lnd reduced.

Sowing seed whose fruit decays;
Throw not time and strength away
In toll which ne'er repsys!
Do not bound the souls desires $50
With the earth's horizoa hne,
When to God rhy heart aspfres
Through the power of grace divine!
Do not sit beneath the shade
OF tree in earthly ground,
when thy deathless soul was made
For Joy earth hath not found
Transient, vain, .deceitful joys
Cheat our souls and waste our years;
And the world its art employs
TO suppress our rising fears.
Sowing to the aesh, We reap
Fruits Of death, though fair they seem;
Soul awake, and dread the sleep
Which destroys thee with dream
