The Growing Cotton.

The statistician of tho department
OF agriculture reports the condition
Of cotton during tho first week of
September rs averaging, for the
whole cotton belt, the same as in
September of last year. Florida,
Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana.
Arkansas and Tennessee make high
er averages than in 1876. The Caro-
llnas, Georgia and Texas report less
favorably, the greatest reduction
being in Texas. As compared with
lust month, Florida, Arkansas and
Tennessee only report improvement.
The percentages of the condition arc
az follows: North Carolina, So
South Carolina, IS; Georgia, IT
Florida 81 ; Alabama, 81 Missis-
sippi, So; Louisiana, 50 Texas, 70;
Arkansas, 90; Tennessee, 100. Tho
caterpillar is present in all the Gulf
States and in South Carolina, but
has done little damage as yet, ex-
cept in Texas. In several parishes
in Louisiana the loss is considerable
from this cause. Where it has made
late appearance it will benefit
rather than injure the crop. In tho
Atlantic States there is much COM
plant of rust, mainly resulting from
drought, but in some counties from
injury by beating storms. In this
section the growth is late, and the
effects of frost in shortening the
harvest are feared
PurT1Nd PLANTS TO SLEEP WITH
EruER.-Several members of the
Partisan Biological Society have
recently been engaged in n series of
experiments which seem to provo
that everything endowed with life,
whether animal, plant or ferment,
is susceptible of being brought under
the influence of anesthetics in other
words, may be sent to sleep. It
has been proved that the influence
of anesthetics extends to all the
animal tissues, and last of all to the
central nervous system. Hence, it
was urged, plants having tissues
must also be subject to the influence
of ether, etc. Experiments have
proved this to be the case. Germi-~
nation is arrested by anesthctics.
The water~cress, for example, ger
inmates within thirty hours. Ether
arrests termination in this plant,
but does not destroy that faculty.
II merely sends the plant to sleep,
for termination recommences as
soon rs the use of ether is suspend~
ol. The capability of being sent
to sleep is not confined to plants, it
extends to fcrments. Thus tho fer
ment of beer, when submitted for
twenty fonr hours to the influence
of ether, becomes perfectly dor
mant, but RECEIVERS activity as soon
soon as anesthetic action is sus~

The Extra SEssroN.-The extra
session of Congress, which begins
on the 18th of next month, Is likely
to be of unusual interest. While tho
message of the President is expect
ed to be brief, and confined to tho
special business for which tho
session has been called, the House
will have to elect n Speaker, tho
Senate will have to act on the ap-
pointments made by tho President
since it adjourned, and there aro
threats by Republican politicians
that the question Of the confirmation
of those appointments will become
tho occasion of an organized war on
tho President and his Cabinet.
Should these expectations be
realized the. extra session will bo
exciting, and may last till the
regular session opens. The army
estimates are said to be ready to be
presented to Congress when it
meets, and it is thought there will
not be much trouble or delay over
the army appropriations. Tho
fortunate determination by tho
President that the army shall not
be used to interfere in Southern
political affairs will remove all op-
position which had arisen at the last
session from that source to the army
appropriation bill. It is conjecturod
that there will be enough Repubi--
cans to act with the Democrats in
both houses to repeal the tenure of
office act.~-.Bultinaore Sun.

THE FREN en- REpUBLsC.
New York sun.1

The result of the French Parliament
airy elections will be awaited with in
tense interest by all friends Of repub-
licanism, both In this country and in
Europe. That this appeal to the French
people will be favorable to the republic,
past events clearly portend; and the
confidence with which the Republicans
look forward to the approaching strug-
gle Is not all assumed, as glance at the
election returns since 1871 shows.
In the first Assembly after the war
to 362 anti Republicans. But forthwith
the movement in favor Of republican
ism began to set in, a movement which
has as yet received no important check.
In July, 1871, 122 vacant seats were
filled, 90 by Republican Deputies and
only % by anti-Republican Deputies.
Among the former, 46 were Radicals,
with Gambetta returned by three con-
stituencies. Partial elections to fill
other vacancies occurred at different
times until February. 1876, in which
opponents but Is. On February 20, 1876,
was held the second general election
since the war, when the Assembly re-
Gently dissolved by MacMahon was
, chosen. This time the Republicans car
ried off $40 seats, while their opponents
secured but 152. In sixty departments
all or a majority of the Deputies elected
were Republicans, and In twenty nine
departments one-half or less OF the
successful candidates belonged to the
same party. In the general elections
of 1871 there We're departments from
which not one Republican Deputy was
returned. The contrast is striking.
five turn to the total vote Of France at
the last general elections, there is found
the same favorable showing for the re-
public. OF 7,210,097 votes cast, 4,O01 ,265
were for Republicans. In the city of
Paris the Republican party polled 216,-
4S5 votes, against 1884 Monarchical
and Bonapartist votes.
The foregoing facts show rapid and
overwhelming gain for the republic in
the National Assembly and among the
French people; and we may expect in
September another Endorsement of the
republic more decisive than any pre-
vious one.
