A BEAUTIFUL MONUMENT.-It may
not be known that our city is capable of
producing some finished works Of art. In
painting We know Of ons lsdy who would
rank high anywhere. StstuaTy properis
not produced among US, because there is
not demand enough to justify. But
there is aud will eve continue to be de
maud enough for monumental art. We,
therefore, wish TO cali attention to one
Of the most beautiful, chsste and simple
specimens of this class of art which We
remember to have seen anywhere. II
may be seen at the shop Cf Messrs. Mayd-
well & Anderson, and is the conception
Of Mr.. Jas. w. Anderson, one of the
partners. Mr.. A. and Mr.. Frederick
Sceuber executed the design. 1t Is
simply q rustic cross about seven and 8
half feet high, resting on 3 pile OF stones
erected with great care, carved out Of
Italian marble. Around the cross is in
tertwined olive vines, and q wreath Of
white roses is thrown owe the arms Of
the cross. The entire work has been
executed with exquisite skill, and strikes
the eye as one Of the most Rp-
propriste conceptions, when de-
igUed 10 mark the sacred resting
place Of a young maiden who had just
reached the ers of womsnhoOd. 1t IL the
emblem Of the church in which she Wor-
shipped, aud Of which she was 3 devout
e0mmunicant. The artist has exhibited
a delicate and tender appreciation Of his
subject, and q skill in execution, which
az once stamps him IS a man of genius.
when K is remembered that the young
maiden, Over whose grave in EimwOod
this beautiful memorial will stand, was
one Of the NEST lovely of her sex, and the
idol Of the family circle and that the
sacred emblem of the cross was the guild
ing sign OF her earnest faith, the design
cannot be too highly appreciated. The
inscriptions on this beautiful work of art
are executed ia a style to correspond
with the design Of the rustic cross, cut
from the olive tree, which, being the
emhleM Of peace, while the cross Is the
emblem Of faith, is calculated to inspire
emotions Of the most touching religious
sentiment. These inscriptions are as
follows

itics of this city haTe established quarantine at the
quarantine station, two miles below tom, against all
steamboats, from that city. The health officer, DR..

THE COTTON CRoP.-Wc have nothing favorable
from any quarter to notice of the cotton crep Is we
stated last week, the worm has madea clean sweep of
the weed, leaving from one-third to onehalf of crop,
which, with favorable weather, may be saved. The
country above the raft, particularly that portion
which trades with Jefferson is suffering severely from
the rarages Of the worm, but we will venture to say
Jefferson will receive as much cotton this year as she
did last Our planters at the first appearance of the
worm we're sortiy alarmed to see the prospects of
fill crop whitfield dem from onchalf to twothirds
but as became would save at least
onctbird they got brarey it, and if man wants
to get good thrashing on short notice. just let him
say worm to them. The only drawback now, is the
azncss OF the freedmen and their penchant for polit-
teal meetings. We have to dread from this than
from the caterpillar.

" notice IN late number Of the Southern Farmer
mat on the authority Of conversation with US tho
Cninese are represented the best fitted men for the

alluded to by our esteemed contemporary must have
taken place several months ago, at a period when
many OF the planters, dissatisfied and DISCOURAGED at
tue dlfhculty of procuring freedmen, had eagerly
causne at the otter Of Chinese, to plank of saliva

gent honeat class of men, and they were readily be-
leVed to be such. Their ineliciency was for some
tne overlooked free allowance being made for work
ing under the disadvantages resulting from complete
change OF agricultural Implements system and climate
hence, our first opinion, rather hopes Of them
lo,day, they have been fairly tried and we are CON-
peHeo to say, they are found sadly wanting-we must
retrac fully and emphaticallv, whatever we had nre
nously said IN their favor. From all we have hoon
able to learn, the Chinese labor is failure: thew ara
unft Tor the cultivation Of our so-no planter could
