Cotton Exchange.

The cotton factors of Cincinnati
have long felt the need of an organi.
cation by which they could, through
concerted action, bring the advantages
which that city presents as a cotton
market more prominently before the
trade of the country, from the planter
to the manufacturer, and on Wednes-
day last held meeting, at which a
constitution was adopted. At an adj
journed meeting Friday, the organi-
cation was perfected, by the election
Of Mathew Addy, of Addy, Hull &

Taylor Bros, and NJ. Hirsburg, of j.
A. Goodheart & Co., vice presidents !;
George Sharpless, of George Sharp

Nation of Fish Eaters.

The Hon. James Brooks writes
from Japan that the national food is
fish. There is not an ocean or river
creature that the Japs do not eat, even
sharks, and the uglier the more appe-
tizing. And most of the fish sold are
not dead fish, but living, jumping,
wriggling fish. You buy an ell all
squirming. The fsh-market men
bring their fish to market in water
tubs, and the fishermen keep a huge
bamboo water fish tank on each side
Of the junks, into which they throw
the creatures that they haul UP, or in.
So much is thought of the fish here,
that on certain festival day every
family that has had boy born during
the year hangs out great painted fish
to boast of it. Mr.. Brooks says: II
thought once, when on the Nile, that
the Egyptians could turn sands into
gardens, were the great farmers of the
world ; but the Egyptians could make
no such farming gardens as these
Proud as | am of the arts, sciences

Tragedy ga SpringwcIIs.

Further particulars of the ARRAY at
Springwells, Sunday night, in which
soldier lost his life, are to the fol-
lowing effect: The soldier, whose
name was George Sutton, and who
was a member of Company f. First
Infantry, had been drinking very much
during the afternoon, and in the even
ing was exceedingly intoxicated. In
this condition he rambled into Bau-
mann's yard, when the latter ordered
him out several times, when a clench
ensued, as he stated. Baumann then
got his gun and again ordered Sutton
away, when, not being obcyed, he
levelcd the gun and sent no less than
fifty-four large shot into the person Of
Sutton, the charge principally lodging
in the region of the heart, many Of
them penetrating it. : Baumann, al
soon as he had done the deed, called
upon neighbor and told him what b,
had done, and then weht to the For
and delivered himself up.
Baumann, Who cannot speak Eng
Iish, and is laborer, insists that tn,
act was in self-defence. Sutton was
single man, % years of age, not lon,
in the service, and was from Lanca
shire, England. His comrades in arm
give him the reputation of being
quiet and inoffensive man.-Detrol

Pirates Of the Gulf.

L
bark Brothers, has arrived at Calves
ton on the bark Harvest Home. The
Galveston correspondent Of the New
Orleans Times gives the following &C
count of the attack on these vessels
| by the Mexicans off the cost of Nina
lillian:
The vessels were loading at Nina
lillian with mahogany and other freight
for Europe. For some bad conduct
Capt. Thurston had ironed one or two
of his sailors, and their friends ashore
hearing of it, made demand for the
| prisoners. Capt Thurston refused to
give them up, saying he was fully able
to control and take care of his own
men. He was told that his life was
in danger, and he must give up the
men. This occurred on shore. The
captain returned to his vessel and
found Capt. Dickey of the Harvest
Home on board, who was there on
friendly visit. Shortly afterward
party of Mexicans, eight or ten in
number, came out from the shore,
pulled alongside the Brothers, and got
on board, protesting all the time the
greatest friendship. Their leader,
Ramon Ripold, clerk for the consignee
of Capt. Thurston's vessel, was the
only one who spoke English. While
seated around the captain, as if by
preconcerted plan, the Mexicans sprang
to their feet and, with drawn revolvers
and cutlasses, demanded the surrender
of the ship. The captain shouted
"Never p at the same time making an
effort to secure the arms of the near
est man, who was the clerk; the mate
of the vessel, rushing forward with
the captains revolver, shot and killed
Ripold.
BY this time all hands had come on
deck, and hand to-hand fight cnsued.
Eight Of the attacking party were
killed, and two made their escape.
Capt. Thurston, knowing if he re-
NAMED there he would be attacked by
superior force, made sail, slipped his
anchor and tried to get to sea. There
being no breeze he was forced to take
to the small boats, not having time to
secure even drop of water or any
thing to eat.
In the mean time Capt Dickey had
returned to his ship. True to his an
ticipations, Capt. Thurston saw two
boats come out from the shore and
pull directly towards his vessel, as he
supposed to board her. He put to
sea out of their reach, and beat about
until picked up by Capt. Dickey on
the night of the 2sth, having been
nearly thirty hours without food or
water.
On the night Of the 9th a party
some seventy or eighty strong came
out from shore, and when within a
short distance of Capt. Dickey opened
fire on his vessel. This party was
armed with rifles and howitzer. The
captain reserved his fire until the party
were within three boats lengths of his
ship, and then let fly at them, and
they retired Immediately to the shore.
A breeze springing up, Capt Dickey
got under way, steering for the nearest
American port, which was Galveston.
The wounded men of both vessels
have been sent to the hospitals.

The third trial of George Wander
pool, for the murder of Herbers Field
at Manistee, two years since, has at
last been brought to close. The fol-
lowing, which we clip from the Free
Press, gives the result of the trial:
HASTINGS, Sept. l3.
The end has come at last. The
jury, after having been duly charged
by his Honor, the Judge, was given
possession Of the court room for their
deliberations, everybody else being ex-
Guided. This was at about ten O'Clock,
AT three o'clock the jury asked for
further instructions rs to the difference
between murder in the first degree, and
murder in the second degree Hav-
ing been informed, they deliberated
another hour, and at about four o'clock
court was convened to hear the render
ing of the verdict.
"They announced that they had
agreed upon verdict of mot guilty
when this result was announced,
Vanderpool remained unmoved, but
his wife went off in fit Of hystirics,
lasting for some time. Of course
there is great excitement here over
the result, which is different from
what even the most sanguine of Van
dcrpool's friends had expected"
