p,oyci, attracted the attention Of another
negro, an inmate Of an ai5oiniug cell. These
told OF a plot aud murder, and the startled
prisoner became most attentive listener.
The two prisoners seemed deeply interested
In the subject, and as the conversation pro
grcsssd, enough was CLEANED TO starile the
eayesdroppsI almost out Of his senses. The
two prisoners and seven other blacks had
been members Of the gang OF the Iyuched
outlaw, and all had sworn 20 wrcaf n tern
bic vengeance for his death. In council It
was deliberately plotted to burn Helena and
murder Gen. Hindman and several other
conservative citizens. The night for It's
execution was the night on which liinimau
was murdered. A negro named CharIa rs
Porter, accompanied by one Of the nara.
tors and another, went into IIWdmau's yard.
Porter was selected 20 ire the luIai shot, aud
fulfilled his mission. HIS ball shattered the
glass and performed the murder. The re.
mainder of the plot failed Those depuuled
to fire the town could not summon sufficient
courage. The listener to these horrld reye.
latons lost no little time in communicating
them to the jailor. The prisoners were
taken out and questioned One OF them
expressed willingness to make a confession,
and was taken before magistrate. He
told the entire story, giving the names OF
every dcud connected with the plot, aud
they are all now in custody.

The Charleston Courier says that the for.
eign circulars show the wisdom ofthe policy
pursued by the south during the last season,
viz. Of first raising their own breadstufs
and supplies, and then devotng their a!ten-
ton to cotton as their surplus crop. These
circulars indicate that cotton is scarce and
high. The Courier says:
"The planters are masters Of the situation,
and simply because they have not staked
their fortunes upon any single production.
Cotton is king, if we permit him to wear his
crown; but not if by improyidence we waste
or cast aside the resources Of his kingdom.
The south is gradually recuperating, because
she has at last ascertaned the secret Of her
power and the true path to her indePend-
ence. Cotton the world must have. But TO
place upon cotton an entire reliance, and TO
make this the only crop is to pave the way
for los5 and for surrender at discretion
The policy Of the last year has placed the
great bulk Of the prIce paid upon cotton in
the pocket of the planter. 1t will doubtless
be pursued to a still greater extent here
after.
