IN the Northwest appears to be iIrepressi-

In Virginia and the Carolinas, according
to the statements of intelligent and disin-
terested persons who have just arrived from
those States, little hopeful feeling for the
political or industrial future is cherished
Deferred hope has given place to despon-
dency.
The recuperatlve process in industrial
pursuits IS retarded by vague apprehen-
sion of evils which are expected from con-
tinnea Radical ascendency and tyranny.
Notwithstanding all this, the North pros

Northern cities is marked by large de-
mand from the South in anticipation of the
cotton crop. New England receives large
portion of the avails of this trade, All her
manufactures flourish, and are in demand
at enhanced prices. Should the cotton crop
fail short of two millions and half of bales.
the apparent and promised prosperity will
disappear.

THE RENT QUEsTIoN.-Th community, for some
time past, has been agitated by the momentous
ddestion of rents, and the probable figures at
which houses would be rented. The auction yes
terday was looked forward to, by many. with great
anxiety, and many doubts and fears we're enter
tanned by those interested.
We observe slight advance on the prices OF
last year. but this in all probability caused from
the anxiety manifested by various persons to rent
early, and thereby avoid the suspense whichis al
ways asioned by doubt They prefer, in most
instances to give higher prices, rather than wait
as feeling of security is impaired after once
renting, which can only be appreciated by ten
ant.
The landlords, in some instances, have mani
tested slight disposition to be more moderate i'll
their demands than we at first supposed, but the
majority of them are still imbued with spirit OF
extortion, which many of them acquired, during
the war, when spectators and eXtortioners were
scattered broadcast over the South.

One OF THE FIRST PALEs.-The first bale of n
C. cotton brought to this market was shipped to
Boston to-day on the steamship Monticello. We
have before made mention of it's arrival being the
bale which competed for the prize offered by
M ossrs Andrews 4 Bardin. It was grown on the
plantation Of Col Geo, W. Collier in WAYNE county,
by Mr.. J. K. Miller. At sunrise on the morning
of the 9th of August it standing in the field.
and at P. NJ, on the same day, it was delivered
in Goldsboro' to the Southern Express Company,
and was received at this place By Messrs Andrews
Bardin, on the following morning at A. NJ The
quality is fine Middling, and the weight Of the bale
is 4G6 pounds.
The prize has been properly awarded to the pro-
ducer.-Doiy Journa', 4h inst.
DEFICIENCY WEIGHT OF PoRK.-We were on
Mr.. Horace M Barry's wharf yesterday, and while
there noticed the inspection Of quantity of pork,
by Messrs. Bunting & Monroe, Inspectors, just
received by the steamship Starlight, from New
York. The pork came to different consignees, and
was branded according to lots, by different inspec
tors in New York. We saw the result of the in
spection of some eighty barrels, which showed
that all the pork by this steamer, branded by S.
WARD & Co., INSPECTORS, run full weight while
fifty barrels, branded by J. ". LEWIS, run short
from IA to q pounds, and was ill consequence re-
packed by Messrs. Bunting l. Munroe, so as to run
full 200 pounds per barrel
We deem it but justice to both of these New
York inspectors, to let these facts be known and
we further propose to follow this plan in future, in
order that merchants may have some guide as
to what inspections to chose when purchasing
pork in New York.
We think that it is but proper to mention that
every barrel of this article received from either
Baltimore or Philadelphia contains the quantity
prescribed by law. 600 lbs.)

Important Decision.

The following case, says the Macon (Geor-
gla)"M Messenger" which came off at the April
term Of Sumter Superior Coart before his
Honor, Alex. II. Spcer, will be read with
unusual interest. The points decided are
such as to effect thousands of Cur citizens, and
gives,on that account, prominence to this de-
cision beyond that which usually attaches to
a decision of the circuit courts We under
stand that the case will 60 up to the Supreme
Court:
James w. Armstrong VS.. Columbus w.
Hand Complaint on notes for value of three
negroes sold in 1860. Plea; failure Of con-
sideration, and breach of covenant, etc.
In Sumter Superior Court, April term,
1866, Colonel Joseph Armstrorc and Gen
eral Howel Cobb, representing the plaintiff,
Messrs, Hawkins and Mckay for defendants.
The'facts are briefly these: Armstrong, plain
tiff, on the 9th of January, 1860, sold thSec
negroes to defendants for given sum, and
took their notes for the same, aud now sues
upon these notes. Plaintiff warranted titles,
that they were slaves for life, The defen-
dant plead failure of consideration and breach
of covenant of warranty, IL the abolition of
of slavery.
The court held the covenant only warran-
ted theaitle and status of the slaves, as the
law then stood, and thatthe act of the gov
ernment tabolshing slavery, repealed the cove
nant. The plaintiff was, therefore, entitled to
recover the notes sued upon.
