used for this purpose is likely to keep
pace with the reduced price OF the arti-
Gle under the operation Of foreign
competition. 1t Is the inevitable des-
tiny of the black race in the United
States to gravitate TO the cotton, rice and
sugar fields of the South, retiring before
tbs tide OF white immigration that will
flow into the border States. Maryland,
Virginia, Kentucky and Missouri, will,
under the operation Of the great laws OF
population, soon be rid OF the blacks,
while North Carolina and Tennessee will
follow their example. There is nowhere
else for them to go except into extermin-
alton, and the consequence will be the
introduction of a cheaper labor inte the
cotton States, to be regulated In time, as
it is in the denser psopled districts OF the
Old World, by the amount required for
subsistence. When that day shall have
arrived, with our productive soil and Pc
culiarly adapted climate, who will be
able to compete with US in the production
CT cotton? We shall be able 70 make 1t
at third or quarter the price 1t now
brings In the market, and realize hand
some profit from the business.
England and the North may as well
then save themselves the trouble Of get
ting up these periodical bugsboos to scare
the Southern planters out OF their prop
erty. They know very well where they
stand Ia this matter. and can see into the
future quite SIS far as those who are con-
tlHnally predicting their overthrow.

COTTON.
The New York World and The
Herald on Egyptian VS.. Amer
lean Cotton,

From the Savannah (Ga.) Republican,
The World aud the Herald, Of New
York, are disputing over the c4b.e tele-
gram announcing heavy yield Of cot
ton in Egypt the present year, the World
thinking the south has MUCH to fear
from the competition, and the Herald
maintaining the contrary opinion. We
are inclined to side with the Herald, and
believe the telegram Rnothe, cheat of
the English dealers to depres5 the price
of cotton in the United States, and for
the following reasons: Any one who
read the address of the Viceroy Of Egypt
published some months ago in many Of
our papers, will recollect that he stated
distinctly, in reference to the agricultu-
raj statistics Of the country, that the
production of cotton, which had been
stimulated to an extraordinary extent
by the American war, had very mate
rally diminished since its close, and
that many Of the plantations the present
year we're devoted to grain and other
products. The Viceroy probably knows,
and would hardly have announced this
fact to his Legislature if it was not true
What, then, becomes of the English tel
egrsm announcing heavy crop of cot
ton in Egypt?
The figures showing the rapid strides
of Egypt in the production of cotton DUR
ing the war are given by the WOrtd, and
VIII be interesting to our readers, though
they afford no evidence as to the state of
production in 1865 England received

whereas, despite our unworthiness, we
fulfill upon earth the functions Of the
vicar OF Christ, we await, with open
arms, the return of those wandering
sons to the Catholic Church, in order
that we may be able to receive them
with all affection into the dwelling of
the celestial Father, and make them par
ticipators in His everlasting treasures.
It Is that much wished for return to
the truth and communion of the Cstho-

the salvation of each one ia particular,
but Of the whole Christian society; and

In 1884 England paid Egypt over sixty
four millions for cotton; the year before
the war she paid her less than seven mill
lions. 1t will be observed that the World
stops its figures with 1865. Why did it
not give Us the pounds received in 1855
and 1867, the data for which were at
hand? If it will produce them we feel
pretty certain they will show q gradual
falling or in production, and to such an
extent in 1867 ss to corroborate the de-
clarstion OF the Viceroy that Egypt
could not compete with the South In the
culture OF cotton, and that that branch
Of her agriculture was being abandoned.
We think the South has nothing to
fear in foreign competition so far as her
great staple is concerned. The growth
Of India Is short in fibre, and otherwise
inferior, while vast qusntities Of 1t are
thrown upon the European markets In q
condition next to worthless. Egypt pro-
duees good article, but the space for its
cultivation is limited and the culture not
adapted to the habits Of the people. We
not only produce the best cotton in the
world, but have large and increasing
area for its cultivation. And another
important fact not to be left out of the
account, is the fall in the price of labor

TROUBLE IN THE VICINITY
OF NEW ORLEANS.
Two Negroes Shot at Jefferson.
Particulars Of the Fir.s and
Riots at GretEa.

From TIE y. O. Picayune Of Saturday
About the hour of hali-psst two o'clock
Friday morning, the Parish prison at
CarrOllton was the scene Of swift and
aveDging Justice, at the hands of some
unknown persons. 1t appears from the
jailor's account Jacob Gerber, that he
was awakened by some one calling out
TO, him 10 get up, that he had prisoner
for him. Thinking that he recognized
the voice Of Deputy Sheriff, he asked !:
% Is that you, Gardner ~ The indi vidual
replied, Yes.n
The moment he appeared at the door
he was overpowered. Scms thirty or
forty persons rushed in and took posses
SIGN, Instantly killing one Dennis, coli
Orsd man, convicted of rape on the per-
sou Of Mrs. Regina LsGchbaum, on the
18th of September, 1866, tried twice be-
fore the jury aud found guilty, TO wit
on the 18th OF November, 1856, and on
the 1st OF May, 1867, aud yet the Law had
not been enforced. At the same time
they mOrtRlIy wounded Samuel Milton,
cOlOTed, who was only incsrcersted yes
terdsy, examined and committed FOR
trial before the second District Court, on
the charge of yioisting and numbering
Antonine Cardones, white gri eleven
years Of age.
Il is believed that the inceDsed COM
munity particularly desired the death Of
tue negro Milton. IL was an outrage 80
horrible and siekeniDg in it's savage
details, that human nature felt sp-
psiled st its recital. After a full, clear
and explicit examination, il was estab-
lished by fifty ODD witnesses, white and
black, with bat one contradiction, r. S.
Gardner, g negro member Of the late
Convention, VINO attempted to prove 81
alibi, that she had been violated and
then stTsDgled, put in q sack and cast in
the river
UpOn visiting the quarters of the asid
negro, there was found in mis- vest pocket
Der earnings, that had been torn from
her ears, the handkerchief worn by the
poor girl in the straw OF his mattress,
and her tin bucket in which she carried
her food. His vest, pants and shoes
were found stained with blood.
He has thus atoned, 50 far as human
justice can make him, for the dreadful
crime he committed. No one can
breathe q word Of blame II the ven
geance visited on these wTetches was
summary, the awful crimes they psrpe-
trsted we're horrible, and justice TO the
community demanded that they should
cease to live.
