grain crop generally good, as were also the
crops of other cereals, grass and vegetables
The Southerners wisely turned their attention
this year more to provision crops than they
ever did before, and, as we see, have been
well rewarded. They win have, probably, a
portion to export. The cotton crop, though
covering less area than formerly, or even
last year, promises we'll % There is not sufi-
cient data yet to estimate the number of bales,
but there will be, probably, two millions to
two millions and a half At the present price
that would realize in money nearly as much
as full crop just before the war. This will
help very much to put our Southern brethren
on their legs again. The tobacco crop pro
misses to be a fair one on the whole, and there
is likely to be larger yield of sugar in Louisi-
ana than in any year since the war interrupted
the production While all this will be direct
and special blessing to the South, the North

South still needs, fH the politicians would

admiral FarraHut and the saltan.
The Sultan on Thursday last visited Adj
miral Farragut on board the flagship Franklin.
This visit is one of the consequences of the
Sultan's remarkable: deviation from ancient
precedents by visiting Western Europe, and
particularly Of the new position which the
United States government has naturallyeas-
sumed in relation to the other great Powers of
the earth since the successful termination of
our late civil war. Only few years ago and
such visit would have been still more extra
ordinary. At that time, except in Russia and
perhaps in Italy, the arrival of United States
vessels in almost any foreign port would have
been comparatively unnoticed event. But
now the relations of the United States govern
ment to the other great Powers have been
completely changed. Into whatever port the
flagship of Admiral Farragut has entered it
has been recognized as bearing not only a
hero of our war, but also representative of
our national grandeur. In England and
France, as well as in Russia and Italy and
Turkey, Admiral FarragutA has been welcomed
with unprecedented attentions as citizen of
the great republic If the Sultan were to visit
the United States he would himself meet with
heartier reception than was accorded to him
in Paris, in London or in Vienna. Our own
reception of William the v Fourth, Louis
Philippe, the Prince de Joinville, Napoleon
the Third, the Prince of Wales, Queen Emma,
and all our other royal visitors, would be sur
passed by that which we should extend to the

PRESIDENT JUAREz ON THE CEsstoN OF
MEXICAN SoIL.-According to the tclegraphic
despatch from San Francisco which we pub
lished yesterday President Juarez, of Mexico,
emphatcally denies that any negotiations have
| taken place for the sale Of Sonora and Snaloa,
or any part thereof, TO the United States But
r,irnors to the contrary have been SO frequently
repeated, and public men must so often vary
their policy in conformity to actual exigencies,
! that we cannot lend implicit confidence to the
| protestation of President Juarez. II has been
| minated that General Rosecrans will probably
offer the support of the government of the
United States to that of Juarez in considera-
ton of the cession Of liberal slice of Mexican
territory. But the ultimate solution of the
Mexican question must, after all, be found in
the absorption Of Mexico by the great republic.
For forty or fifty years all sorts of experiments
have been vainly repeated, and il must at
length be patent to the world that the COM
bustbe elements in Mexico predominate to
such degree that selfgovernment on the
part OF the Mexican people is impossible. No
other solution can be anticipated than the one
which we have indicated
