COTTON. From the annual report of
the National Association Of Cotton Mau-
ufacturers and Planters, the New York
Commercial AduertiSer complies some in
teresting statistics of the home consump-
ton of cotton for the year ending Octo-
Der l, 1870. These statistics show that
the total amount of cotton spun, accord
ing to ratio based upon tho returns of
S3 per cent. of the spinning power
in the whole country, was 313, 349, $40
pounds, of which 20,65G.473 was in
Southern mills and 293, 1913, ACT in North
ern mills. There were also 3,213, ,O32
pounds otherwise consumed in the North.
The number of spindles occupied was
5,762. 988 in the North and 166, ,275 in
the South-total 5,929, 1868. The reports
of 430 Northern mills show an increase
OF consumption in 1869-70 over 1863
OF l.67 per cent, or 4,787, 1924 pounds,
and in spindles of 2.72 per cent. In the
same period the increase of consumption
Ill 53 Southern mills was 6.26 per cent,
was 1.95 per cent, or 5,942, 279 pounds
of cotton, and in spindles of 2.65 per
cent. The returns of cotton used in the
mills otherwise than for spinning" ("
were too incomplete to allow satisfac-
tory comparison with last year. This
years work was reduced by the long
strike at Fall River, and by the loss Of
water power by the drouth, leaving but
about 290 working days to be counted
for, the average of all the Northern mills,
instead of 800, the ordinary number of
working days. The anticipated fall in
the price of cotton, consequent on pre-
sent excess in supply, and the war in
Europe, together open to manufacturers
more fiattering prospect than they have
had for some time, rs the production has
not kept pace with the supply and the
surplus of manufactured goods is reduced
worry low.

The Rhine is now German river. The
surrender Of Neuf Breisach yields the
last of the German fortresses upon that
river, and there are now only three
French strongholds left in Alsace and
Lorraine. These three are Bitche, on
the frontier of Rhenish Bavaria; Phals-
bourg, in the Vosges Mountains, and
Belfort, in the department of Haut-
Rim, some miles from the Rhine. The
two first-naned are said to be absolutely
impregnable TO assault, and can only be
taken by the slow process of starvation,
though small force can mask them.
Belfort is claimed to be stronger than
StTasbourg, but that too can be masked
or fianked and left behind.

Tribute 10 Judge Carpenter and General
Butler.
The Charleston Ne,Os pays deservedly
high tribute to these gentlemen; for the
services they rendered In the recent
campaign in this State. We did not
anticipate any serious impression upon
the colored voters, but the effort made
to enlighten their minds and to direct
Alright their political conduct, was o
magnanimol5 olo. But IL was not TO
the colored voters alone that Judge
Carpenter and General Butler directed
their appeals. They awoke and stimu-
lated the energies of their white fellow
citizens. They rendered distinguished
services, and they deserve we'll of South
Carolina. If they did not command
success, they did more-they deserved it.

O'Neil upon an Aexandrine organ:
Memorial Ode.
The living city bends her head,
And bows her heart again.
Where her dear City Of the Dead
Enshrines her children slain.
The crowded mart pours forth Its tide;
Its guest, each saddened nome,
And Labor lays its tools aside,
And Thought, its task and tome.
A hush is DER the busy street.
AS sounds this Sabbath chimes:
"TaKe Off thy shoes from or thy feet,
Thou tread'st on holy time
"Turn hence your pilgrim steps. for they
Who once stood WITH you here,
And FOR you elsewhere, claim this Cay,
Loves offering OF the year "
And where the peaceful sleepers rest
Each in his silent home,
TO crown their graves, and call them blest;
The grateful Town has come.
Oh, treasured Dust Oh martyred Dead
Are ye not b!est, indeed;
Who freely for your country b!ed,
But do not see her bleed
Ye might have lived-as some live now,
To blame the erring stroke
That failed to lay its object low,
| But kept him for the yoke.
And ye are blest beside-we know
Ye have not bled in vain,
| For seeds Of noblest virtue grow
Beneath such martyr rain.
And when the better hour shall strike,
| That gives us rights again,
| Wen prove that like produces like,
| Nor your fair record stain.
