The Louisiana troubles have had the
most deplorable effect on business. Pri-
vate adyices from New Orleans arc to the
effect that the contest has brought every
department: OF business and industry to
stand.still. A deep gloom pervadcs the
entire city. Tho movements of conmo
dities, usually so active at this season Of
the year. have been practically suspend.
ed. Planters and farmers are afrsid to
ship their cotton and other products to
that city, and shipments to other cities
are suspended. The orders for goods
which formerly went to New Orleans are
sent to rival cities. The prospect for the
remainder of this winter, therefore, is
anything but cheerful one, and the end
is not yet.

African Explorations,

Sir Bsrtle Frere, accompanied by q
numeroqs and. distinguished suite. has
arrived at alexandria, Egypt. on his
journey frgn Great Britain to Aden.
There he VII join the British expedition
I:whichsha Sbeea commissioned to aot for
the suppression of the African slave
trade. He was well received on landing,
and will for time be the guest O. the
Khedive before his departure for Zanzi-
bar. Great interest is felt in the objects
OF tho commission, of which he has been
appointed the head.
Herr Mauot. the German explorer of
Africa. has arrived at Guilimane, on his
way home, in good health.
Prussian savans are making arrange.
ments for some other and further ex-
plorations. The Berlin Geographical
Society intends to send out on expedi-
ton to Central Africa, on large scale.
and with defined scientific objects. It
is designed to penetrate the vast unex-
plered region. containing an area Of
some million English miles. African
travellers have approached it on oil sides,
but have not yet entered it, as, for in
stance, Livingstone on the South and
Southeast; Speke, Burton, Grant and
Sohweinfurt in the Nile country, on the
North east; Park, Richardson. Darth
and others on the North. From the
West coast there hns been no great sue
cessful expedition for any distance in
land. The details of the new expeli-
tlon are not yet settled, but it is thought
that the exploration of the Congo and
Lopez rivers will probably be Il main
object.
The great mystery Of Africa must yield
to the curious, pushing enterprising
spirit of the present age. It is not con-
tent to let anything remain in doubt or
uncertainty. When the country is tho
roughly penetrated, and it's long cher
ished secrets disclosed, and it's people
| brought into somo connection with other
races, and under the influence of moro
enlightened principles and policy, its
! old fatal curse of the sluvo trade may
pass away. Only ideas Of the sacrcdncss
OF family ties, and tho cpdearments Of
kindred, can extirpatc it, aud these can
only come OF better development OF
material resources, and higher ad-
vancement in civilization and religion.

SILK CULTURE IN SOUTH CARoIINA-A
reporter for the Savannah Republican
has had a long talk with Beaufort
planter, who expects to go North soon
for the purpose; of making arrangements
for the! establishment OF q silk-worm
nursery at Beaufort. The reporter SAYS:
''He appears to have given the subject
the closest attention, and brought to our
notice several very interesting points in
the report Of the Agricultural Depart
ment published last year. The coooons
which he showed us, and which were
grown near Beaufort, were certainly very
beautiful, and were stated by him to be
as hne as any ever grown in the United
States. He carries them on with hand
some letters of introduction and recon-
mendation to silk manufacturers ut the
North, and certainly, upon consideration
OF the fucts before us, we cannot but say
TINT he must succeed in making arrange
ments satisfactory to all.
1.-The breeding of the silk worm was,
in colonial times, qnite AL extensive
business in South Carolina. Its final
abandonment, ns far as we can learn,
was not on account of the want Of profit,
but the great difficulty existing ut thut
time in transporting from the old coun-
try sufficient number Of skillful mm-
nipulators to take care of the plant and
the feeding of the worm in its earlier
stages. at the present time these arc
comparatively easily found ut the North
and from the West. In England the
matter hau engaged the particular alton
ton of the government for the past two
years. Nurseries have been established
in various pnrts of the kingdom, and,
with tho encouragement of the govern
ment, arc making lurgc importutions .!
| eggs and cocoons from all parts Of the
world. Iu Mexico and in various parts
of the Northern States it is business
carried on with great profit to the ow nrrs
of nurseries.
"The experiment of raising the silk
| worm ut Beaufort has boon matio witt,
the most satisfactory results. Tho CO.
coons produced are, rs We have stated,
very beautiful TO our uneducated eye,
aud the fact that efforts nre being made
to establish 4 nursery ut that place proves
That the parties making the experimen.
are willing to risk considerable amour,
Of capital in it. Should tho doctor sue
cecd III his efforts, land we sincerely
hope he wilI,) it must open in South Ca
rolna field of great profit for her peo
pie, and will probably do away, to ccr.
