A WISE CoNCLUsIoN.-A distin
guished New York Democrat, who
arrived from Washington this morn
ing, states that in an interview with
the President, it is ascertained that
there are to be no Cabinet changes
for the present, and no variation in
the general policy of the administra-
ton. The disposition is to let the
Ohio and Pennsylvania elections go
for what they are worth, bnt that
should New York declare against the
radical party, "then," said Mr.. John
son, "the Executive Department will
be fully equal to the requirements of
the times, as indicated by these ire
sistible expressions of the popular
will. '-Ne,O York Letter in Philadel-

SOMETHING RICH IN THE CoLoRED
JURY LINE.-The Bennettsville Jour
nal says:
The fall term of the Court of Com
mon Pleas for Marlborough District,
now in session, convened last Mon
day, his Honor Judge Glover, pre-
siding. In accordance with General
Orders, q new jury was empanneled
on Monday. Two negroes who had
paid their taxes, were chosen; but as
soon as they heard of the fact, they
left for parts unknown, one going
toward the North Carolina line, and
the other taking the swamp. They
did not appear willing to sit on iuries
with white people.

Il asyv News,

We, learn from our n Norfherns ex.
changes, that q inumber5of prominent
men have taken the initiative In .
novel project in the management of
railroads. being no less than the con-
struction of great trunks or lines Of
railroads from the great producing
States of the West to the cities of the
seabosrd. OF course, this would ne
cessitate the consolidation OF the
leading railroad companies, the de-
sign being to build all these lines
with double tracks, and individuals
or corporations are to be permitted
to put on these tracks their rolling
stock, and run them on their owl
account, paying certain tolls on the
road for the passage of their trains.
This is something new, and the
plan, we should think would, require
sometime to mature. We notice,
however, that meeting was held in
Now York city, the other evening, to
consider the feasibility of its success.
AT this meeting, Judge Sherwood, of
Texas, addressed those present, and
gave an outline of seven proposed
trunk railways. He described three
important railway bills introduced
into Congress by Senators Nye, Har-
raj and Henderson, the contemplated
roads to take the initiative in cheap
freight railways, with the thorough
fares opened to free competition, as
upon canals. By way of illustration,
lie said :hst, under the proposed sys-
tenn, coal could be delivered to con-
sumers at half the present prices.
That railway reform and cheap
transportation of freight, are two ne
cessities of the age, in this country,
cannot be doubted; and if the plan
under discussion will secure them, its
projectors will be entitled to the
thanks of this generation, or the
next-for we do not think that sEch n
gigantic and radical change in the
extensive railway operations in this
country, can be effected much sooner
than before the time intimated. How
ever, the movement will be watched
with interest.

The CLOTH INTERESTS. The auc-
tion interests are playing the mischief
with those who have stocks of goods
on hand. We are pointed to parcels
of excellent goods which cost So. 25 O
yard in gold to import, which have
sold ut auction rs low as 81. 5O-a loss
of about $2.75 a yard. This is but a
sample case, but n very sad one to
many i'll this city. The losses by
auction, we are told, mainly fall on
foreign houses who have their agents
in the United States.

were induced to go by curiosity,

Hand cotton. in the New York market,
from 1s47 to 1860, inclusive. enbrac-
ing, q term Of fourteen years. AS a
matter of interest and for the pur-
pose of reference, both by planters
and dealers in the staple, as for the
purpose of drawing some conclusions
therefrom, we give the yearly Huctua-
tions in price during the period re-
ferred to. They are as follows: y
"1847, 1890. ; 1s4S, 51k; 1s49, 621;
1850, IL; 1851, IL; 1852, SZ6; 1858,
1056; 1854, 91a; 1856, 91s; 1856,
1031; 1857, 1411; 1853, 125l; 1859,
L.; 1860, 111s. These figures will
make an average price in New York
for fourteen years before the war of
about lnaS5 l9S cents. This w;:ss che price
in coin, and the staple was, more
over, exempt from tax of 21m cents
per pound, which is now paid
The dispatches published in the
PhRnir, yesterday morning, indicat-
cd decline both in Liverpool and in
all the American markets. The
quoted price in New York wss 1917
cents, and gold was rated at 4356. A
simple calculation based on these
figures, and by adding the tax of 21a
cents per pound, will convince those
who may figureit out, that the present
price of cotton in the New York
market is very little over the average
price of the fourteen years quoted
above What with commercial fail
ures ia New York and New Orleans,
and the reported later failure of the
Royal Bank of Liverpool, it may be
reasonably expected that prices will
still further recede, and perhaps very
rapidly.
1t must be further taken into con-
sideration, that during the fourteen
years mentioned, the Southern States
had virtually monopoly of the cot
ton supply. Now, there can scarcely
be such thing as cotton famine in
the English markets, or factories. In
addition, it is stated on reliable
commercial authority, by recent Eu-
ropean advices, that there is an utter
want of confidence in the credit of
the Liverpool firms, which is incrcas-
ed by the difficulty of ascertaining
their true position. 1t appears that
many houses, in order to obviate the
effects of open insolvency, have made
private settlements with their bank
ers, on favorable terms, with the un-
derstanding that the banks should
continue to support them. Tn this
way, the price of cotton has been un-
naturally supported. 1t was pre-
dicted some week or two ago,
that very slight decline in the Liv-
erpool market, would bring down the
whole cotton trade of that mart, and
ruin the banking institutions asso-
ciated with the cotton interest. Yes
terday's advices from Liverpool seem
to verify that prediction.
This is an unpleasant view to pre-
sent to our readers; but we deem it
an imperative duty to keep them fully
posted up, and especially. to place
before them the probabilities of the
future, as regards their chief staple,
and its price. They are decidedly of
q gloomy character at present.

THE New THINGS TO BE WoRN.-As
the cold days are approaching, the
fashion-makers of Paris and the
North begin to think of the warm
things to be worn. Here are some of
them:
Fur is to be used on everything
in Paris, it is thought, this winter.
Fur caps, or little bonnets trimmed
with fur, will be worn, out of compli-
ment to the Persian strangers, whose
pretty furs have set off their pretty
figures and faces at the Exhibition.
Circassian plaits of fur will be
worn on the throat, and Siberian
wristlets will be made up.
Spangled Syrian wells, either white
or black, worn very long, are already
very popular. They look fanciful and
Oriental.
Cerise and white is the really aris-
tocratic combination of colors.
Long sashes, held in rings behind,
are popular.
Bead lace is coming into favor once
more.
Here is description of the newest
winter toilet, which will not be worn
till November, however: Velvet man
tie, loose at the waist, cut scarf-like
in front, which is longer than the
back and covered with gimps; it is
trimmed all round with guipure.
Our fashion editor has prepared
the following list of fabrics, which
will be in vogue this fall:
For marriageble girls Pop-lin.
" Elizabeth, (engaged,) Thibet.
" Women of letters -. p K (pique.
" Sailors wives. -. MerinO.
&C. Typos wives. :. -. Print.

have endeavored, at least, to keep my
promise, and the readers Of the REPUBLICAN
must be the judges Of my success in that
endeavor.
In dealing with the question Of slavery, l
never relaxed my efforts in behalf of free
dom until the last chain fell from the last
slave.
If have differed from some Of the Ma
tional Union party, which nominated LIN
coin and JOHNSON, it was on the question of
reconstruction, which was as new to the
American people as it was to those who had
to administer the Government.
My sincere thanks are due to the patrons
Of the REPUBLIcAS-subscrib and adver-
tisers-who have sustained the paper to the
present time.
The REPUBLICAN will hereafter be con-
Quoted by Mr.. MuRTAoH, who has shared
with me the trials and responsibilities Of more
than four years journalism, and whose future,
trust, will be still more successful than it
has been in the past.
II have not succeeded in making the
NATIONAL REPUBLICAN all that it ought to
have been, have, at least, the satisfaction
Of knowing that l did my best to make it as
valuable and reliable journal as was pub,
lished in the National Metropolis.
The readers of the REPUBLICAN, with whom
have had SO many pleasant private and
confidential" communications, printed will
accept my thanks for their numerous indul.
gences.
That the REPUBLICAN will hereafter be con-
Quoted for the promotion Of the best interests
of the citizens Of the District of Columbia
have no doubt s. p. HANSCOM.
