Saturday Evening, Nov. II, 1866.
CoTTON--Priyate advices received from New
York to-day have impaired increased strength to
the market, but their effect has been partially
neutralized by the difficulties inthe way of placing
foreign Exchange and the very low figures offered
for both sterling and francs The supply of the
staple upon the market was unusually light, and
the assortment undesirable throughout, especially
for foreign buyers but with a fair demand from
the opening to the close of business. The sales,
nevertheless, amounted to $500 bales at generally
irregular figures, but mostly on the basis of yes
terday's approXimating quotations, which we re-
peat as follows, viz: Ordinary, 27829c.; good
ordinary, 30@3lc.; low middlng 92033c. ard mid
ding, 3508Gc.

SUGAR AND MOLAssEs--The receipts since YES
terday were very light, and only comprise S5
hhds of Sugar, $50 bbls and $50 half bb}s of Mo-
Iasses. The supply, however is amply sufficient
to meet the demand, which was almost entirely

There are some simple minded peO-
pie, and some demagogues, and per
maps some very honest people in Ken
lucky, who are disposed 10 look with
suspicion upon the man OF the pcper
advocating the policy Of removing what
may be called the dead body of slavery
and giving it a decent burial 10 is a
little singular too that such opinions
should be entertained When Il Is seen
that the people of the Southern states,
who had a much greater interest IN the
institution than We had, are now, a.
they have for some time been, engaged
IN removing all traces Of slavery. ihey
can ses no good result 10 come
irom chnglng TO the debris OF The de-
tnnct institution, and are removing it
with commendable dispatch
As an evidence Of the spirit which
actuates them, we quote from the Mem
phis Avalanche, always one Of the most
extreme and uncOmpr0mising OF an
prO-slaveIy journals, the editor of
which wore = sword and rode by Bed
ford Forests side during the greater
part Of the war He fought 10 keep
the life, If possible, in the institution,
but now that it is dead he drops his
sword and with his pes pushes the
dead body from his path and proceeds
20 other duties.
For Heavens sake, saws the Ava
lanche, '.et the South take measures to
terminate the controversy, and bury
the corps Of slavery out OF sight. with
all It's Odl0us appendages. Until this
be done the country viii have no peace,
and the Southern people no security
We shall have the negro again in Con
gressi new rally Of the w0Ishippera
Of the ebony idol a new cohesion OF
Northern ianaticismi new combina-
ton sgainst the peace aud interests OF
the South. The only way 90 avoid a
controversy, which must In the end
prove unprOhtable 10 US, is to give 10
the negro the rights and privileges at
tached 10 hls new condition 10 thus
put the abolition Of slavery beyond any
line of dispute. 10 leave nothing tol
the Northern Radicals 10 use as pOliti
cal capital, or texts of defamation and
then calmly appeal 20 the conservative
portion OF the country for the rtstOra
Iion Of our rights, aud claim the verdict
Of the country against the Black Re
publican party as Al orgGnIation with
out principles, asserting no new facts
and constructed only for clamor When
the Blask Republican, party shall b,
pat in TINS position, its power for evil d
gone, and the days Of an old and bid
