CoTroN FUTURES DECLARED GAME
L1NG.-For two days last past, the United
States Court, Judge Busteed presiding, has
been engaged in a case of considerable in
terest to dealers in cotton, and especially
spectators in futures" The case arose
from the application of Lehman Bros. to
have A. Strassburger declareda bankrupt
The petitioners claim that A. Strassbur-
ger owed them $4,000, as evidenced by
four notes of $4,000 each-said notes
having been given In part payment of an
open account due them by A. Strassbur-
ger. 1t appeared in evidence that the
amount due was from losses upon cotton
transactions called futures" The Judge
charged the jury thatif from the evidence
there was no intention upon the part Of
either Of the parties to deliver the actual
cotton, but that the contract was to be
settled by either party paying the differ
ence between the price as contracted ut,
and the market price upon the day Of the
contract falling due, then The contract was
void, and therefore A. Strassburger had
not committed any act of bankruptcy as
alleged. The jury retired short time,
and brought in their verdict, that in their
opinion there was no intention of either
party at the time of making the contract
to deliver the actual cotton, but merely to
settle the difference in currency. There
upon, the petition Of Lehman Bros to
have A. Strassburger adjudged a bank
rupt was dismissed. The case, it is un-i
derstood, will be carried up on appeal, no.

THE BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS ARE
.AWAKING!

They are springing from the valley,
From the hillside and the plain,
Der the lawn, the lane, and garden,
|; The sweet flowers have come again!
Mid the chilly. blast OF autumn
They dropped their.heads and died;
Ali the heaven-tinted leaflets
|, Were scattered far and wide;
Buried meath the SHOWS of winter,
|: They slumbered in the tomb;
But spring brings its resurrection,
. And again they sweetly bloom! -,
Welcome! Welcome! Fair evangels,
/ Ye messengers of love,
Awaking in our bosoms
+ Sweet thoughts of friends above;
Who withered, dropped and left us =
For more congenial bowers,
Where life is naught but spring-time
Mid ever blooming flowers
Where no sickness, trials. anguish,
/ Ever enter or annoy;,iG :,
The future fraught with happiness,
J Pleasures without alloy.
Where dear ones shall unite again,
Around the eternal throne,
Earth's blood-washed heirs with Jesus
Gods dear annointed one
Who died to save aworld from sin
Atonement not in vain
He burst the bars Of death, and rose,
That we might live againl
Sweet flowers! once more they come to d
In all their heavenly bloom,
To cheer'our hearts with hopes anew,
OF life beyond the tomb!

New YORK, April l6.-The Eveni'g
Post, in its editorial columns to-day, pub
fishes paragraph from one of Mr.. Bry-
ants letters relative to the change of the
postmaster at Charleston, IN which he
says: In all my intercourse with the
people of the South, although it has not
been very extensive nor Of very long con-
tinuance, I have, heard only the expressed
sense of desire to be on friendly terms
with US Of the Northern Stltes. Especially
has this been the case in Charleston, where
saw more than elsewhere Of the people
of the place. I have never, since | cross
ed Mason and Dixon's line, heard single
expression of bitterness or mallgnity to-
wards those who lived North Of it. 1t
was but the other day that the people CT
Charleston sent formal invitation to the
President of the Omitted States to visit
South Carolina He declined the civility
and at the same time he removed the post.
master of Charleston, Mr. Trott, who was
highly esteemed In his place he appoint
ed o. colored man, who whether Justly or
not, lies under the odium Of being with
corrupt fellows who have for several years
been pillaging the State. This was like
answering an invitation to dinner with
slap'in the face, and was gross blunder,
to say the least" The Post comments
upon the action Of the President in re-
moving Mr. Trott, in similar strain, and
says that, while unbending amid popular
clamor, Grant frequently yields to the i'm
poSunities of the politician, and bends
before a Congressional bore. The Post
concludes as follows: "In the present in
stance, probably, he took counsel with
some one in authority among the profess
sional politicians, and under this influence
heaped contempt upon the people. The
charge that the person appointed is unfit
for the place, puts the Presidents action
as low in respect to morals as it is in res
pect to mankers. 1t is poor return for
the revival of o love of our common coun-
try among the people Of the Southern
States to find that the Administration
Joins hands with those through whose lg-
norance and dishonesty the burdens of a
bad government have been added to the
J dreadful losses of the late war. As ME
Bryant says, President Grant has commit
ted gross blunder."
