The Plague In Asia.

The British Medical Journal publish
es the following recent information:
The plague is still increasing at Hill
lah and Bagdad, though it has not up to
the present, apparently, spread to any
other town. The following are the latest
official returns: At Hillah, from the
Goth to the 26th of March, seventy.six
persons were attacked, and there were
thirty. four deaths. The greatest num-
Der of cases in one day at Hillah was reg
istered on the 26th, when twenty persons
were attacked, and the greatest number of
deaths occurred on the 23d, when twelve
persons died. At Bagdad, from the Dist
to the 27th of March, Inclusive, there
we're onehundred and ten cases and forty
five deaths; the maximum of cases (thir-
ty) was attained on the Goth, and the
maximum of deaths (ten per day. on the
23rd and 9th ult. April l2.-The
latest kilograms to the Constantinoplc
sanitary board indicate an increase in the
number of plague cases in Mesopotamia,
as well as an extension of the area infect
ed. The following are the returns: At
Hillah, in the space of five days, (irOm
the 9th to the 3lst of March inclusive, }
there were sixty-six new cases and forty
two deaths. At Bagdad, from the 28th
of March to the lst Of April, there were
one hundred and forty.fve new cases and
seventy five deaths. The plague in that
city has now crossed from the right bank
of the Tigris to the lett bank, which had
been previously free from the contagion.
The epidemic had likewise made its ap
pearancc at Meshed or Nedjef Ali, where,
from the 25th to the Goth or March, there
occurred FIVE fatal cases, and also at hut'
ct Hamra. A severe quarantine, we arc
assured, has been established at Kournah.

A Barbarian MOnarch's Funeral.

The journal de Paris contains letter
from an eye witness, giving the following
particulars of the atrocities committed
on the occasion of the funeral Of Kan.
rasi, king of OunyOro in central Africa.
An immense grave or pit, capable Of
holding several hundred people, had
been dug, at the bottom of which the
wives of the dciunct king had been
placed in the form of ring, TO be in
readiness to receive upon their knees the
corpse Of their late tyranElcal and bar.
barOus master. Several regiments Of the
royal guard had been sent on the preced-
ing night to silently surround some of
the neighboring villages. The first hu.
man bcing-bc it man, woman or child
that made its exit from the surrounded
hut', was forcibly seized and carried of,
and the captives cntrappcd in this man
ner conducted towards the pit prepared
for the funeral Here there commenced
the most horrible scene. The limbs of
these poor creatures, arms and legs, were
broken by the soldiers The lamentations
and cries of despair of the victims inter
HllIklt'l WIN VIC Nl'HAlllS VI wv lhllNl
cal crowd, and one by one they were
thrown into the gaping gulf below. Then
commenced the beating Of drums, the
flourish of trumpets, the piercing sound
of the whistle and pipe which, together
with the violent vOClfcrations OF the
crowd, drowned the cries of the victims.
The soil dug out of the pit the previous
day was then thrown back into the mon
stcr grave. The fanatiCal spectators of
the dismal drama, as soon as it was filed
up commenced to dance ON the summit
of the grave, stamping the soil down
with all their might, so as to form hard,
compact layer above those buried alive
All the lamentations having ceased, moth
ing was left to indicate the ceremony Of
the abominablc sepulturc; the noise of
the instruments had ceased also, and the
assembled crowd RETIRED satisfied with
themselves, and admiring the greatness
of the king whose names demanded such
sacrifices.

AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS.
Final Report Of the Cotton Acreage of the
Renson Of IS78.7-EXlcnt Of Aban.
doncd LANDS Conditions Of the
Crop, Etc.

From the Memphis Avalanche,
In our report of last month"; while Civ
ing the total acreage of cotton planted
for the present season, as well as Il short
account of the general condition of the
crop, the Avalanche promised its readers
to replace now by actual accounts those
figures, which were then only estimated.
On that occasion, owing to the late
ovcrhows in the Mississippi valley and
other causes then accounted for, we were
compelled to estimate the acreage of GER
tain counties of various states-a process
not by any means very satisfactory to us
nor sufficiently interesting to those en-
gagged in the cotton trade; and in order
to fulfill our promise we publish this full
report, setting forth in detail the actual
acreage of each and every state.
1t would, however, be necessary to
refer our readers, first of all, to our last
months report, and moro especially to
column five, of table one showing the
acreage estimated of overtlOwed districts,
etc, viz: two hundred and ninety-seven
thousand. At the same time pointing
out that in case said amount would all be
planted in cotton from then out it would
show total acreage of nino million five
hundred and eighteen thousand for the
years 1867, or equal to an increase OF
about OnC-fourth per cent over last year
1t will he seen, however, by the present
report that the total acreage Of cotton
planted up to the sixth inst. amounted
to nine million three hundred and sixty.
two thousand, or equivalent t0a decrease
of about one per cent, compared with
last year. so that one hundred and fifty
six thousand acres originally intended for
cotton had to be abandoned for that pur-
pose. We need scarcely say more on the
subject now, as our figures below will
explain more fully all the details.
Regarding the condition of the crop we
have every reason to believe that the
stand, owing to late planting, il back
ward compared with last year, more
especially in many sections of the west
ern cotton states. With that exception
crow news is favorable and encouraging.
We hear Of a few complaints about OK
cessive rains, which, however, up to now
seem to have done little or no damage
The weather for past three weeks ha'
been all that could he desired-suli
GENTLY warm, with occasional showers.
Nevertheless, until next fall, cottol
will have many enemies 10 encounter
and we skall endeav0r, from time to time
to keep our friends sufficiently posted a
to the prospect and development Of tn
crop.
