PUsHING THE CoTToN CRop TO MARKEr.-Our
special correspondents are giving us each in
their turn some valuable statistics relative to
the amount Of cotton left on the plantations
and the estimate made by our Galveston agent
to-day of $4,000 for Texas will be great sur
prise to those leaning to $500, 900 rs to the
prooaoie out-turne of the crop. We firmly
believe that in no season before has sucb ener.
gy been used by planters to send their crops
forward, the extr66ttifSary facilities of trans.
portation and the moral fear, entertained at the
commencement Of the season, of the low prices
to be accepted, having stimulated shipments to
greater extent than any previous yeor.

The daily gazette., 1877-03-30

The Salt Lake Herald of March "a,
which contains the news of Lees exc
cution, has an editorial article upon
that subject which acquires interest
from the fact that the Herald is q Nor
mon organ, and is understood to re.
fleet the views Of Brigham, Young.
1t says that from its knowledge of pub
lie opinion In Utah, it is satisfied that
the execution of Lee has caused Joy
rather than sorrow to large portion
of the people Of the Territory, for the
reason that his crime has been dark
shadow thrown over the fair name of
the people; and it Indignantly repu-
dates the idea that the Mormons, as a
community or as church organiza-
tioD, are responsible for crime which
they look upon with adherence.

Al Comparison ofGirIs.

The Baltimore girl is placed In the
midst of the happiest conditions for
the perfect unfolding Of the latent pos
sibilities of beauty. Reared In eli
mate that knows neither the rigors OF
of the north nor enervating langour of
the south, she cometh up like flower.
Moreover the Baltimore girl has what

The delicate, dainty and highly nu-
tritieus fare 10 needed TO bring TO per-
lection the purest types of beauties.
1t has frequently panied us to notice
that there is q disposition among some
of the western cities to hurl at each
other accusations of homeliness in
their women. If we may trust the
Chicago press, the girls of st. Louis
have large feet. 1t Is even said that at
q st. Louis wedding aderrick Is neces-
sary to throw the slipper after the
bride.~ st. Louis retorts with the ac-
cusation that the Chicago girl has large

cago girl spreads out one ear for para
sol, and uses the other as fan. 1t Is
alleged also that the Cincinnati girl
has an unnecessary development OF
foot, and that she uses pumpkin as
ball to darn her stockings on. These
ungallsnt remarks are to be deplored.
We concede the beauty of the girls of
Cincinnati, St. Louis, Chicago and
Boston, and we believe that If they
were nurtured under the kindly influ-
ence of Baltimore, they would attain
the highest possibilities of beauty.
The Boston girl is charming, There is /,
a flavor OF the east wind in her voice,
and suggestion of Goldfish balls in her
physique, but she is bright, intelli-
gent, bookish, andself-reliant; she wins
her. way everywhere. The western
girl is of exubrent health and vitality;
the southern girl has dreamy lan>
gour and grace indescribable. Butwom-

INSTRUMENTATION.

TROUBLE ON THE SAN FRANCISCO LINE
SHIP JAMESTOWN AT THE BREAK
WATER.
On Wednesday of last week the clipper
ship, jamestown, one of the new line of
Fl. l.. Gregg & Co. established for trade
between this port and San Francisco, sail
ed from her wharf at the foot of Catharine
street, bound for the latter port with a
full cargo Of assorted merchandise. She
was baffied by head winds unth she ar
rived at the Breakwater, and was comDell-
ed by the heavy gales outside to await
their subsistence. A letter from Lieuten-
ant lockwood, of the United States
Revenue cutter Hamilton, dated March
n, says ga mutiny took place on board
the ship while lying off the Delaware
Breakwater that afternoon. The Bamil-
ton was called on for assistance, which
was Immediately rendered, and seven
of the crew were placed in confinement.
They can give no satisfactory reason for
their acts and will be taken to sea on the
ship."-Telegraph.
