DEsTITUTIoN IN THE SOUTH.

The reports of the suffering that come up
here from the South are truly appalling. The
almost entire failure OF the crops for the two
past years coupled with the devastation caus
ed by the war, have reduced an immense num-
Der of the people in that section to a state of
beggary and starvation. In Georgia and Lou
isiana, the Generals in command are obliged
to issue rations to large numbers who would
otherwise starve and even to issue to the con-
victs, in the State-prisons of those States
Henceforth whether treason shall be consid-
cred honorable" or not, it can hardly be reck-
oned profitable, if we take the late war as a
sample.

Political Notes.

Many of the inhabitants of Colorado have
been endeavoring to have a slice of Dakota
taken off and attached to Colorado. Mr..
Evans, the Senator-elect, however, writes
home from Washington to his constituents
that the Colorado men there are unanimously
of the opinion that an attempt to get the ad-
dtional territory would defeat the admission
of the State.
There are not a few surprising vagaries of
Judgment with reference to the Presidents
conviction. While the Boston Posts Wash
1ngton correspondent declares that the Pres-
dent has abandoned all hope of acquittal, the
Advertisers correspondent is equally sure
that he expects to reign ten months longer
The latter correspondent says that Seward is
hopeful, but that Secretary Browning takes
gloomy view OF his superior's prospects
A Washington dispatch to the Worcester
Spy, referring to the final vote on impeach-
ment, says that 4" Mr.. Fessenden denies the
truth OF the rumorS about him, and Mr.. Fowl

go with the great body of Republicans in the
Senate on the final VOTE" AS for Mr.. Fes-
sender, it is not at all likely that he has
given himself the slightest uneasiness about
of a character to command attention or invite
denial.
