The Raulie Fibre.

The tew persons engaged IN the cuItiva
ton OF ramie ia the vicinity of this city
are constantly in the receipt of letters from
the Northern cities and from Europe
making inquiries relative TO ramie culture,
the price at which it can be sold, and the
amount of supply that can be depended
upon. Some Of the manufacturers who
have tested the value of the fibre by spin
ming II into thread, say that it is superior
TO fax. and if there could be certainty OF
supply, it would supersede altogether the
use Of fax in thread spinning. Others
assert that they can take the crude fibre
and in four hours convert it into a fossy
silk worth from three to tour dollars per
pound, and can weave it into fabrics having
all the fexibility and lustre Of the finest
foreign silks.
With regard TO the supply Of ramie, no
certain calculations can be made, from the
fact that there is but little capital in the
hands of the planters, and # is hard to force
them out Of the old habit OF planting cotton
and sugar.
For the information of Northern manu-
facturers, We can state that the soil OF
Louisiana is rich enough, and the area of
unoccupied lands sufficiently extensive, TO
produce ramie in any desired quantity, pro-
vided it is first planted. Capita. is needed
for that purpose, and the North must fur
nish II. When they do SO, they will get the
profit both on the production and the man
uracture.

NEW YORK, September ., 1871.
The Tribune of this day contains the fol-
lowing editorial comments upon the inter
view between the President and the
Louisiana Republican delegation at Long
Branch:
We ere gradually getting at the bottom
of the New Orleans military outrage. The
remonstrants against the high-handed pro-
ceedings of Marshal Packard and Collector
Casey have made their formal complaints
to the President and have received the as
suranee that he never authorized the en-
pIoyment of United States troops for the
purposes for which they were used by his
superserviceable appointees at New Or
leans. General Reynolds, it seems, is re
sponsible for the detail of the troops
though ignorant of the precise chaI acter of
the emergency existing. We rejoice that
the often expressed disbelief of the Tribune
in General Grants being in any way party
to this disgraceful business, has been justi-
fed by all the facts. And now that the
responsibility can be fixed upon civilian
officers at New Orleans without any diff
Guilty, we shall expect their removal forth

Interview With ~the Presideut-Address
OfGenerai Campbeli-New y orik Times
Report.

WASHINGTON, September 6.-The follow
ing is the New York Times account Of the
Long Branch interview:
LONG BRANCH, N. j., September ).
The committee of twenty of the Warmoth
Louisiana delegation arrived at Long Branch
at II A. NJ to-day. Carriages were in wait
ing at the depot, and the delegation were
Immediately driven to the Presidents cot
tage, where the President, by appointment,
received them.
On their being introduced, General Hugh
j. Campbell informed the President of the
object of their visit, and read to him the
following address:
Mr. President-In accordance with reso-
IutiOns adopted by the Republican State
Convention OF Louisiana, held August 9,
1871, copy of which we herewith present,
we have asked this interview, to express to
you personally the facts stated in the reso-
lutions, and to present to you the request
of the Republicans of Louisiana that the
federal app0intees charged with the efenses
specified be removed The Republican State
Central Committee has been managed for
the past year chiefly by Mr. Packard, the
United States marshal; Mr. Casey, c0llec-
tor of customs; Mr.. Lowell, postmaster;
Mr. Joubert, assessor of internal revenue,
and the Lieutenant Governor.
These gentlemen have all been hostile to
Governor Warnoth, and for nearly two
years have waged fierce contest against
him. They desired to control the c0nven-
ton this summer and secure q new Central
Committee to their own interest and lnlml-
cal to the Governor, aud thus direct the
organization Of the nominating convention
next year. Up to this date there has been
no division among the Republicans of the
State, except on State issues. The party
was INIT in the support Of the natisnal
Republican party and of the national az
ministration. Governor Warmoth's friends
were the hearty and earnest friends of the
President.
One complaint was made by the friends of
the State administration, that the federal
officials were allowed to make bitter war
fare upon the Governor and his friends, to
support newspapers which attacked him
with personal and viru!ent abuse, and to
promote dissensions in the coming conven-
ton upon the gubernatorial question, which
was yet eighteen months distant. and which
would net be properly before the convention
for this year; but it was believed that these
officials did this without the knowledge or
approval of the President, and that, when
he should be made aware of the facts, he
would prevent his subordinates from using
their official patronage in the interest of any
faction.
The Central Committee called a State
Convention to meet in New Orleans ON
August g. The original resolution, presented

Tho Galveston NerS reports the arrival
there of a schooner from New Orleans hav-
ing on board all the machinery of a dredge-
boat, which is to be employed in deepen
ing the channel across the bars. The Necs
says: I'VE understand from very reliable
authority that there are fully twelve feet of
water now in the channel on the inner bar.
The same gentleman, who has. a very ex-
tended experience of the entrances to this
port; tells US that he believes, for an outlay
small in comparison with the benefits it
will secure, permanent depth OF fifteen
feet of water could be easily attained on
both bars During the month of August
there arrived at Galveston three hundred
and ifty-two immigrants.

WASHINGTON. September 6.-Informa-

armed force of Mexicans. also on the twen-

especially the closing sentence Tie
Shreveport Southeastern says:
The New Orleans REPUBLICAN is unques-
tionably well conducted journal, and
when not political, is always sensible. But
when it AYERS that it is " ridiculous to sup
pose that city located hundreds of miles
in the interior country-far from the ocean
can ever successfully compete with it New
Orleans) as a commercial city," it simply
panders to the local pride of our metropo-
lis, and does real injustice to st. Louis.
For the fact is, notwithstanding the superior
natural advantages of New Orleans, St.
Louis every day successfully competes with
her merchants; and, with the extension of
the railroads now under construction, will
continue to direct more trade. 1t will pay
st. Louis to ''drum" away among the plant
ers of the South; to establish moro lines of
steamers to go in the Ouaebita and the
Teche; TO buy cotton and sugar on the
plantations-for it is to her interest, and
the interest of the producers, to dispense
with all middle men, to save the expense of
commission and brokerage, and the heavy
insurance levied upon trade by the city of
New Orleans. If the merchants of New
Orleans want TO compete with those of st.
Louis, they should exhibit something of
their enterprise.
