Lew Developments, at the lowest
ttained levels are not, so far. as
romising as could be desired. The
bullion expectation has decreased
wonderfully, and for the present
month will fall far below the past.
At least one half. of the reduction
works that six months since were run
ming full capacity, are to-day idle,
with no present prospect OF obtaining
ore to crush. A large number ofwork-
men are thereby thrown out OF en-
ployment, and large amount OF t1ade
stopped;
''fn.all our leading mines prospect
ing is being vigorously pushed ahead,
at great depths, and while ali is as
yet uncertainty as to the quantity and
quality of the vein at these undevel-
oped points, we may be considered
justified in believing that enough ore
will be found during the coming win
ter to afford at least expenses to cor
poration operations; and if the bot
tom shall be found still in, the en-
suing spring will witness a very pros
porous community. On the other
hand, if nothing new is found at the
lower levels, it is but reasonable in US
to fatter ourselves that the recent
discoveries for reducing low grade
ores at a handsome profit, will be
turned to immediate account, and that
millions of tons of argentiferous
rock now numbering our dump piles,
and cropping from the hill-sides, will
be turned to bullion"
The other mining districts are rep
resented as teeming with success. y

Coates killed Elisha Frost with his
shot gun. Abner c. Coates was shot
in the shoulder. He was the least
hurt of any of the wounded, though
his wound is severe. James Coates
received pistol shot in the abdomen,
which was at first considered mortal,
but there is now hope Of recovery. 1t
is not known who shot him. Duncan
was dangerously stabbed and cut about
the neck, back and arm. His wounds
at first were regarded as fatal, but he
is said to be recovering. 1t is pre-
sumable that Wesley Coates stabbed
and cut him, as a large knife was
found lying almost in Wesley's hand
Immediately after he was killed. The
blade of the knife is very bloody.

fhe Demoeracy NeWaroing Rebels.

Ghe Democracy ReWarGing Rebels.
The thoroughness of the rebel con-
quest of Maryland, under the gui>e of
Democracy. is thus graphically de-
seribed By Colonel Forney, in the
philadelphia Press:
THE counter-revolution against
freedom is complete; not single
office, from Governor down to consta-
bile, is filed by a thoroughly loyal
man, while a very large majority Of
the offices are filed by men whose
Ionly claim to distinction is devotion
Ito the rebellion. The Chief Judge
lof the Supreme Court of Baltimore
won his title to rebel gratitude by
presiding at the famous Monument
Square meeting of April Is. 1861,
which called upon the mob to save
the South from invasion. As a
member of the reasonable Leg
hslature of 1861, he was arrested
by General McClellan's order,
and imp, isoned In Union fortress.
His associates numbered amongst
them a brother Of a rebel guerrilla of
like sentiments, and an eX-member of
Lees staff. The late Judge Advo-
cate General of the rebel armies in
Richmond is now the salaried coun-
Fellor of the municipal government of
Baltimore, and a reasonable editor
who was sent South as a public en-
envy, is Judge of the Appeal Tax
Court. A returned captain of the
rebel army was elected, by popular
vote, Clerk of the State Court of Ap-
peals. These are but sample bricks
of the whole political fabric. Instead
Of treason being made odious, it is
only recognized claim of political
Ireferment: and while the legless or
otherwise MANNED veteran of the
Union army may be seen grinding a
hand organ upon one corner of Mar
ket Street, a returned rebel soldier
may be seen in the police uniform ON
the other"

Cotton.

A Georgia correspondent of the
Louisville Journal gives the true
reason of the deplorable condition OF
Southern industry, in the wild, sense
less and suicidal rebellion Inaugural
ted by Southern politicians against the
Union. He says:
THE culture of cotton, the great
staple of the South, and the chief
source of our national wealth, has
ceased to be profitable. This is not
so much the result of free labor as it
was a necessity of the war. With cur
Southern ports bIockaded for four
years, the channels of our commerce
with other nations closed, there arose
the necessity of testing the produc-
ton of cotton elsewhere. That test
has proven a success. While we
were building forts, and arsenals, and
breastworks, with our labor diverted
from the plowshare to the sword,
England was busily engaged pushing
thousands of miles of railway into
the interior of India, with her cheap
and well disciplined labor turued
to the growth of the needful staple
What is the result? Whilst
we were tearing out each others eyes,
she was stealthily wrestling from us
the monopoly with which we had de-
fed the world. With the adv at Of a
worse than truitless victory, we wake
from the dream of blood and death
to lament the loss of the golden
prize. A change in the labor system
had already diminished the amount
of production at least two-thirds. yet
this diminution in quantity did
not discourage its growth, relying, as
the planter did, upon the probable
and prospective enhancement of its
value. The same labor, though not
so reliable as formerly, is employed.
Provisions, though HIGHER than ever,
are purchased, and confidence in fu-
ture prosperity reposed. Let US look
at the result Instead of fifty cents
per pound, as was confidently antici-
pated at the close Of the war, cotton
to-day is quoted in the principal
Southern markets at ten cents per
pound, tax unpaid. This leaves the
planter FIVE cents per pound with
which to pay for the labor, and to
discharge. the mortgage given upon
his lands as security for the pro-
visions advanced him last spring, as
a means to the production OF the
crop"

Matters in New Orleans.

The following is an extract of prl-
vate letter from New Orleans to gen
tleman in this city. It is dated No
vember %:
8 We have now been at home about
a week, and have had a very hot CHI
mate, say over Summer heat, every
day. The yellow fever was run out
this year without a frost, as up TO this
/ time there has been none There are
q few cases of yellow Jack yet here,
aud five deaths from it yesterday, as
also some cholera, but it Is a wonder
there is not more sickness With such
weather as we now have.
We are having terrible times here:
nothing like it since 1887. The
planters are, all OF them. broken up
by this year s losses. You can calcu-
late the loss when the niggers have
been fed and each hand paid by the
year at the rate of So to $15 month.
Now the products of such labor is
only one bale of cotton to the hand.
This bale, after paying freight, Gov
eminent tax and commission, will net
only $50 This heavy loss must be
sustained by the merchants who have
been making the advances to make
the crop. There must be a smash-up
all through the South. The only in
ducement the planter will have of a
trial again next year will be the re-
peal Of the Government tax. What
we want is the plantations divided up
into small places and sold to white
men-men of industry and energy.
When that is done, then the prosper
ity of the South Will become a fixed
fact.
The future of the South looks very
dark to me, and not bright spot any
where. The people all despond. They
want some Yankee pluck and energy
before they can deserve success. At
every landing we made on the river
we found lots of white loafers-men
that ought to be at work; and then
the planters, although badly in debt,
with no money to spend, yet they
came On board many of them in kid
gloves, and the way they splurged
about one would think them owners
of the boat and all the people on it.
These kind of people must be brought
to realize their own true situation.
The Democratic success in the re-
cent elections has done much injury.
w hat We want IS these POLITICAL ques-
tons settled. It would have been
better to have had the Republicans
swept the country, as then people
would have consented to reconstruc-
ton, and thus settle down on basis
which would have been an end to
the trouble. Now the people hope
and erpect something to be done more
favorable; yet if they would camly
consider the situation, they would
find the Democratic party powerless
for either good or evil. These are sad
times, and the only consolation we
can have is that they cannot be any
worse"
