The Country not Hurt.

We have all along maintained the
views so clearly expressed below by
our contemporary, the n. Q. Bulletin,
in reference to the effect to be produced
upon the country by til" fall i'll tho
price of cotton:
No planter who has operated in rru-
dent spirit and on Il sound basis, is 60
ing to be ruined by fifteen, fourteen, or
even twelve cents pound for cotton.
1t is only such as challenged disaster,
by rash speculation upon an inflated
credit basis, who will suffer it in conSc-
quence of not realizing twenty, or at
least nineteen cents Il pound. The rest
will be largely, if not wholly, compen-
stated for the decline by sooner or later
realizing the benefit of cheaper goods
and cheaper labor. This class will scar
cely lament a catastrophe which prom
ises, in knocking down prices and
egregiouS expectations, to DO away with
the loose kind OfbusincsS which subject
ed them, in the labor market and in the
general plantation supply market, to
competition with initiating spectators.
Merchants are wisely refusing further
accommodations to planters of the lat
ter description who have failed 10
promptly forward cotton to cover, as
far as possible, past due advances. For
reasons needless to detail, freedmen in
the country will have their pretcnsious
as plantation laborcrs greatly lowered,
and their opportunities for continued or
intermittent idleness correspondingly
diminished. These facts, cOncurring
with others, will tell around an inn
mense circle in favor of cotton produc-
ton, the present year, as, after all, the
most promising line of industry which
and legitimate agricultural
can take hold of in those re-
gions of the South most adapted of all
on the globe to the successful growth of
cotton. This sort of enterprise. adj
dressed to such a staple, depend upon
it, will never be overwhelmed by over
other words, will never
De ruined by its own efficiency.

Senator Schurz upon San Domingo and

Senator Schurz upon San Domingo ana
the Negro.
The views of Senator Schurz upon
the annexation of San Domingo, are
thus condensed. The Senator is good
Republican, and loves the negro, but
rather indifferent1y:
1. That the African race could not be
made productive in the tropics with
level out the coercion OF slavery.
2. That the Africans OF the tropics
we're not fit to exercise the duties Of
American citizens, nor to be admitted
to an equality with the Caucasian race.
3. That the white race degenerates in
the tropics and rapidly decends to the
of the blacks.
4. That the West Indies are adapted
| for a general colonization ofail the Afrl-
cans of the continent, and that our policy
should be to look to on aggregation ana
concentration of this race therein, under
the protection of the United States.

A California Editors Farewell to his
Lady Friends.

Emotional insanity having been so Of
ten pleaded successfully. by husbands in
California in defense of shooting or
knitting some suspecting gallants, the
San Francisco News Letter says. t..tE
All mems wives who have hitherto
enjoyed the advantage-of our acquain-
lance are hereby notified that this
ceases to-day, never to be renewed. 1t
is with deep grief that we disrupt the
social relations which promise so much,
but we feel impelled, thereto. by the
first law of nature. ....-.....
Our lady friends who have the mis-
fortune to be married to other and IN
ferior men will please stick like a
leach to their legal protectors, and not
recognize us on the street. We have
taken considerable pleasure in their
society-a pleasure which we tlatter
ourselves has been inutual-but this
thing can no longer be permitted to
GO on. We trust that our motive
which is pure cowardice-will not be
nisconstrued. Somebody perishes in
sloriously every day for being upon
speaking terms with married women,
and we do not care to have our turn
come round. ...,- .-.... o.. ....
Deeply grateful for the past forbear-
lnce of aggrieved husbands we make
our bow and retire. Hereafter our
mods and smiles will be lavished upon
girls and widows exclusively; none
others need apply. Whosoever shall
attempt to introduce us to his own
wife, or that of another man, will be
regarded as Il conspirator against our
precious life, and subjected to abuse in
the columns of this journal. Nature is
strong in us, and we do not wish to
die. Whenever we shall feel Il desire
that way, we shall treat somebody's
wife with common courtesy, get shot,
and go quietly to our reward. ... 49,.

Plant Irish Potatoes

Yes, plant Il great .nalfy, they Will
come just in time when the sweet pot:'-
toes by most families are used up. Inn
press it also on the minds of the freed
men to follow your example, and that
it is better for him to have Irish pOta-
toes during the summer to partly sub
sist on, than to go to the store and buy
provisions at ruinous prices. irish
potatoes are healthy food and save both
meat and corn. I have seen thousands
of families snbsisting on the potato dur
ing the whole year, and be strong to 90
| all kind Of hard work and the people
were very healthy.
In selecting the seed I prefer the
CLEARLY Rose" They are the surest'
Weld more than other kinds and are
more palatable.
In preparing the ground for potatoes
| break it up deep and subsoii it. If 1
dhaye plenty short well rOtted manure,
I spread it broadcast before breaking up
and plow it under. If my manure IS
not we'll rotted and consists partly OF

row the ground we'll, and lay Off tho
rows three and a half to four feet apars
by running a furrow about six niche
deep, and plant the potatoes about elght
teen inches apart in the rows.
The culture is very simple, but must
be done in time. AS soon as the plants
are all up, the ground ought to be stir
bred, either with :eultivator, or in
Small patch with the hoe. When the
plants have reached seven to eight in
ches, they ought to be hoed again and

ought to be done with care. The ridges

A WOMAN MORTALITY STABBED.
CUTTING AFFR-AY BETWEEN FEN les.

One of the most sickening spectacles
that has ever occurred in this city Oc-
Cured last night, at the corner ofBasin
and Common streets. Two young wo-
men, inmates of the disreputabie house
of Hattie Hamilton, engaged in quar-
rel, when one of them suddenly drew Il
bowieknife and inflicted upon the other
three dangerous wounds, one of which
it is believed will prove mortal. The
:ssaiIant is named Cora Howard, and
the wounded girl Kitty Mead. They
are both recent arrivals in the city, and
arc not only yOung-not more than is
wears of age--but exceedingly pretty.
One wound is directly through the left
breast, and probably penetrated to the
depth of several inches; one also in the
side and two in the left arm.
The quarrel originated in the attentions
of a well known sporting man to Kitty
Mead, of which the girl Cora Howard
saw cause for jealousy. She is a dark
brunette and when the reporter saw
her last night, infiamed with passion
and excitement, looked the very genius
of evil. The wounded girl is a blonde.
The ARRAY occurred in a side room of
the house-chambcr in fact. The furni-
ture and appointments of the room are
white, and the blood flowing from the
deep cuts ln11lcteu, Splrteu over inc
counterpart of the bed, the pillows
and chairs, presenting spectacle as
revolving as could possibly be imagined.
The loud screams of the wounded girl
and fierce anathenas of her assailant
soon drew to the scene every inmate of
the house, and a large crowd upon
the street Finally, the girl broke away
from her assailant and ran screaming
across the street into Levy's restaurant.
She was, Il few minutes afterwards, con-
veyed back to the house. and medical
assistance procured. Sergeant. Peter
Joseph arrested Cora Howard and con-
veyed her to the Central Station.
The scene of confusion in the house
bcggars description. Women pale from
fright, and with faces horror-stricllen,
were running from room to room, and
the police in earnest search ofwitnesses,
made up a Babel rarely witnessed.
The name of the man who caused the
quarrel, and additional particulars, will
be revealed to-day.-N. O. Picety'oae.
F'orney in his last occasional letter
mourns over the fact that the Radicals
hate each other worse than they hate

MURDER OF SHARON TYNDALE.

Hon. Sharon Tyndale, late State
Treasurer Of Illinois, was murdered
last Saturday morning about two
o'clock near his residence in Springfield.
The coroner's jury find that he came to
his death "from wound in the head
caused by pistol shot, said shot being
fred by person or persons unknown"
Tyndale intended to take the o'clock
train for st Louis and did not go to bed
at half past one and lay down upon a
lounge. He was walked at the time went
to lis wife's room, took leave of her, and,
taking valise and putting fifty dollars
in his pocket, started for the depot. A
short distance from his residence and near
a coal yard he was found dead. The
theory of his murder is, that some person
or persons, knowing of his intended jour,
ney and supposing that he would have
some considerable amount of of money
with him, waylaid him at the coal card
for the purpose of robbing him; that
Tyndale being powerful man, defended
himself as various marks at the place
showed; that he was dragged some dis
lance 50 as to be shaded from the moon
light aid shot, causing immediate death
The fifty dollars, put in his pocket before
starting, was taken and his other pocket
money left. His gold watch, fastened
with chain, was left. The pistol with
which he was shot was lett 1t is til 'ught
that the murderers were frightened
away. Thus far there is no clue to The
murdcrers.

MUSICAL AND LITERARY ENTER
TAINMENT.

A. P.ssBurbank, Principal of the Dear
born School, Chicago, Elocutionist, and
Mr.. A. Fl. Pease, Chicago, Pianist, will
give Literary and Musical Entertain
ment at Simmons Hall this evening. Mrs.
Burbank stands high as an Elocutionist
AS Professional Reader he has no supe.
riors. The pulpit and the press of
Chicago, irrespective of differences of re-
ligions and political opinions, speak
loudly in his commentator and praise.
And he seems to have full confidence in
his own abilities to make himself heard
and understood. We said to him, in 8
brief interview. that our ear was well
adapted to detect defects in a public
speaker or reader. And that, though we
heard abundance of sound, the enuncia
ton of many was so indistinct that we
understood but little or nothing of what
was said, and might better be at home
Mr.. Burbank expressed himself fully will
ing to give US a trial, and thought he
could make himself understood through
our ears And we intend to give him the
opportunity to make the trial, and, if he
succeeds we shall give him due credit
We are unwilling to believe we are nee.
essarily one of those, who, having ears
hear not. The circus clown, rs often al
he has the opportunity, generally makes
himself understood through our ears
Hence we believe the fault is more in tn.
speakers and readers than in our ears
Mr.. Pease is fine piano player. TIL,
Tribune and Post both speak highly o
his playing in Chicago in connection
with Mr. Burbank's, readings. The lover
of music cannot fail to be entertained b,
his elegant and brilliant performance.
The entertainment has one merit which
is evident on the face of the bills. TIL,
admission is but % cents. If the enter
ta1nment is worth any thing it is worth
% cents. And % cents is all any enter
tainment of the kind is worth to us. Th
low price of admission is high recon
mendation of the entertainment. Thos
having control have not thought it nece.
sary to charge high price to recon
mend the performances. Besides the
preferred that the admission should NJ
be 30 high as to exclude any. And, 8
the entertainment is placed within til
