Ohio, writes that the cotton crop Of the

per pound TO the proc ucer, as estimsted
in an article on the "Cotton Crop and
Tax" has been worth only II l 4 cents
per pound, while it has cost to raise 1t
from Is to 10 cents; 81 so that beyond
question cotton-growiDg at present
prices is q losing business" He AYERS
that one-third OF the cotton raised in the
South is grown by Northern men and
freedmen, and tina. the decline 10 the
price Of the staple requires repeal Of
the tax. He denies that American has q
monopoly OF the kind and quality CT
cotton produced a. the South, and there
fore that the tax falls on the consumer
He alleges, finally that the tax must be

AMERICAN INTERESTS IN CHINA. -
American mercantile houses have sc.
quired such supremacy in China that
one firm (that of Russell s. Co } has 40.
soute steam control of the Yautzekiang
river for distance Of 700 miles to Han
know, and another Heard & Co.. have
similar control Of the Canton River.
The American steam fleet on the FIRST
named stream comprises seven vessels,
aggregating 1850 tons. They do a
highly profitable carrying trade. A new
treaty, that will open the Ysngtzekiang
to Tokang, 400 miles above Hankow, be.
sides securing the other concessions sug-
gested, including the permission to build
telegraph and railroad lines, will enable
the citizens Of the United States to build
up trade in and with China OF greater
extent and value than has yet been en-
joyed by all other countries together.
1t will give access to d basin comprising
100000 square miles OF the most fertile
and productive soil in the empire, and
which is already the source OF great
trade. '..

in the scale against the heavy charge ot usur-

Senate, we hope will spare General Grant and
Admiral Far agut in the matter OF testilylng to
the funny doines of that Chicago escapade, as
Mr.. Seward can tell all that is necessary, and
more. 100, concerning it. With Mr.. Johnson's
removal General Grant Will probably, by law,
be M once promoted to his place, and, If q
special election be ordered IN the fall, will un-
uuestionably be chosen by the people to fill up
the interval TO the 4th of March, 1869. Other
wise under the existing law. the President of
the Senate will be transferred TO the White
House, subject to the issue of q special Presi-
dental election.
The programme is simple and easy, as pro-
vided in the Constitution; and when thus
finally reduced to the sovereign authority of
Congress, the Rebel States will have no alter
native but to submit, as other States and
peoples have done, through the last FIVE or
six thousand years, to the necessities OF their
situation, and to the issues of a conflict of
their own choosing. Meantime the pending
Constitutional Amendment will soon be duly
ratified to make it part of the supreme law of
the land; and then, whether the outside States
have accepted or rejected it, they must obey it
all the same. Al the fuss that we hear OF panic,

Passage of the Tariff Bill.

IRON The World (Free Trade.
The bill of denominations which has just passed
the Senatelis the same Tariff bill which passed
the House the last session, so altered by multi
tudnous amendments as TO make it, in many
particulars, more unjust and oppressive than
the original. We hope that the amendments
may be eoncurred in, and that the bill, in its
present hideous shape, may become law
From the now ascertained views of the two
Houses, we are certain to have high and
oppressive tariff anyhow, and the best thing to
be hoped Is that absurdIty may so oVeTleap
itself as TO hasten the inevitable, the overwhelm-
ing reaction.
Instead OF a bill to increase the revenue, it
! ought to have been entitled a bill to blockade

WASHINGTON, October 3.-The in

Executive has taken no action in his
case. Hon. James Lyons, of Vir-
ginia, recon tly here from visiting his
client, represents Mr.. Davis as ready
and anxious for his trial. The de-
fence will contend that the recog~
nized constitutional doctrine, North
and South, preyionsj to the war,
taught that the first allegiance was
due to C State having Immediate
control of the citizens life and pro-
perty; and unfaithfulness to it in
volved immediate loss of both.
