THE DEsPIsED Sourn

Notwithstanding the hostile legislation
of the Radical confscators and proscrip-
tionists, so increasingly pursued since the
close of the war, it is gratifying TO know
that the poor, despised South is rapidly
regainingher former position in the Union
as producer. Strange as it may appear,
the value of our cotton exports in the
year 1868, wasneaTly twenty five millions,
in dollars, greater than in 1856 All that
We need to make us the richest people on
earth, is to be relieved from the enormous
taxation which we now have to pay, and
the establishment of a financial system
which shall not continue to remind us of
the vampire sucking the life blood of his
victim. We take theaccompanying extracts
from the seventh annual report of the
Commissioner of Agriculture The fol-
lowing table shows the value of cotton
exports, raw material and manufactured
goods, for the last thirteen years:

SOLICITOR WARE, of the POstoffice De
partment at Washington, has been guilty
of very grave offcnse, for which he ha,
been dismissed from Office. He found
fault with the practice in the Treasury
Department of docking clerks for the time
they are absent from their desks. Gen.
Grant and his Cabinet can travel very ex.
tensively, and often in government YES
sells at heavy cost to the government,
and still their salaries go on, but if an
humble clerk happens to lose an hour OF
50 he is docked. That is the practice Of
Of The Grant administration.

In is reported that Judge Dent, who is
now in Washington, believes the story
published some time since, to the effect
that satrap Ames, commanding in Missis-
sippi, threatened 10 use the force al his
command, if necessary, to carry the
election for Alcorn, the Radical candidate
for Governor. lie says, notwithstanding
the denial made by Amcs, there are atlida-
Wits from no less than a dozen prominent
citizens of the Stale, on file in the War
Department. certifying 10 the truth of the
story. But it is said Grant thinks the
story absurd, for the reason that the mum
barof troops in Gen. Amcs command is
50 small that il would be impossible 10
use them with any effect for the purpose
proposed. OF course, Grant would not
believe anything of the kind, though it be
proved Ivy witnesses that cannot be i'm
peached, as in the present case. He would
believe the people of the State guilty of
any atrocity that might be charged against
them. but would hold his satraps and
their strikers saints.

telleth the number OF the stars; He prepareth
rain for the earth; He maketh grass to grow upon
the mountains; He maketh peace in our borders.
