FROM 1h RaLn0h SennnsL
THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE quite often betrays

indeed changed; the South itself Is now In position

England-its "schoomasters and schoolma'ams," with
their nasal twang.

people, and especially against those who once held

the article from THE TRIBUNE to which we have re-
orable necessity has raised this people from serfdom TO

Of the situation refuse to release u.s. There Is meaning
in those words And when it is remembered that they
come from THE NEw-YoRK TRIBUNE they appear to be
signally significant.
THE COTTON CROP.
From The AtIanta Constitution.
The prospects of the cotton manufacturers
in this country never better says The NEw-foRk
TRIBUNE, than they now. Our advantages over all
other nations especially for the manufacture OF coarse

trade TO South America The prospect Is bright ana
great factories have recently been emt IN Fan RIVER
Cohoes and other Industrial cities Of the North. But
alas the sunny land that finds such small profits In the
growing OF the staple has not the energy 10 grasp tae
greater profits that lie in ts manufacture. There are
$50 cotton factories in the country The hum OF l9l Is

A DANGEROUS SCHEME.
From The DeRuer (COL) Ners

nounces which to come before the next Con-
gress TO have the Rebel debt assumed by the United
States The proposition would receive the solid vote OF
