A gen. tleman possessed with aIholy horror of the great agitstor, but curioas, nevertheless, to sec what he looks like, bought ticket, expecting to go in and take look at the lecturer, and then transfey his seat to an other person who was to hear tie lecture. Phillips was late, but 2 quiet. estimabfe clefgynan.of the vicinity sscame in and was assigned seat on the platform. In came our Conservative friend, also. For five minutes. he looked at the innocent clerical individual aforesaid with intense detestation and then retired, before Mr. Phillips made his appearance.

 Notwithstanding the cotton crop is but two fifths as large; this year, g # was du' ring the best years before the war, Southern papers estimate that the netre- .ceipts of the planter will be greater now than then. In the first place the price oi cotton is doubled. Then, there are no heavy outlays of capital required in the purchase of slaves. Last, but not least, the planter has been obliged By circum, stances to do business ona cash basis. The master was formerly almost as much the property of the ssfactor" as the negro was the property of the master, Nothing is wanting but free speech, a free press. and fair administration of justice, to make the South advance as rapidly as the West.
