On October Ist James wrote from
st. Louis TO Governor Orittenden Of
fering his surrender. The letter is
long. It says he takes the step fer the
sake of his wife and children and wants

The Illghlanders in Egypt.


The Gordon and Cameron High.
landers, who have been sent TO
Ramlch to form the nucleus of

Alison, have already figured prom.
inently in the history of Egyptian
warfare. In the campaign of l10S,
under the leadership of Sir Ralph
Abercromby, they especially dis
tinguished themselves, leaving
among the conquered French q

of 10000 men, under Marshal DER

note was either killed or wounded.
The Cameron llighlanders were
equally distinguished by valor at
Quatre Bras, the battle which i'm.
mediately preceded Waterloo

their gallant leader, Colonel Cam

In orr paper to-day the path to
the acquisition Of great riches is
blazed out by Two different roHies.
One through the pleasant orange
Groves of Florida, where the 20
pher rambols in the golden sand,
ana the alligator shouts his shrill
halloo in the slashes The other
IN the mulberry forests, where ihe
silk.worm spins its soft aud shin
inr strand. But mark you, for the
orange blossom there waiieth the
frosts Of an unkind winter, and
for the Industrious worm behold
there soareth the early bird. By
neither of these routes, therefore,
is II a dead sure thing that one can
get away with the swag. Cotton
raising many have found 10 be
vanity and vexatiOn Of spirit, and
even johnson grass may prove TO
BE- modification of the flesh, and
fail 10 furnish sheayes for the har-
vest. Oranges are only fruit for
sneLers and IN the rich fleece Of
the worm the poor have no inner
itance. There is peril in the golden
glory Of the tropics. When your
orchard is in the full luxuriane OF
rs delicious fruitage, and you feel
that your fortune is made, and
that after the toll and the struggle
you can say to your soul "take
your ease;r when fate seems kind
est and hope smiles brightest, you
may slip up on an orange peel and
break your neck.
THIS WAY LIES FORTUNE.
Why seek the tlekle goddess IN
the jungles of Florida, or under
the green foliage Of the many.leaf.
ed mulberry, when you can lay
your hand on her name right here
at home, and drag out golden du
eats. What the American heart
panteth for is something easy tC
do aud sure to sell. If the people
in this country would raise apples
and make cider, they would oil ge'
rich and be happy. In the gfea'
temperance tornado that is goinl
to sweep the land, the cider mill'
| will stand the storm while th'
wine press and the still screw vii
be swept away. Others may pint
for the orange vine, for the sill
worm brown or dapple, but wei
take in ours the rich red wine o
the rosy apple. Plant apple tree
and raise apple dumplings, if yo
want to be rich aud great.

Speaking of the era of pros
perity for the South, Commits
sioner Renuer, of Louisiana, said
to-day: al made the prediction
five years ago, and the present
state of the business justilies the
prediction, that the manufacture OF
oil and other products from cot
ton seed would within twenty-five
years bring from one-fourth to
one-third to the South of what our.
section then got from the staple
itsclf.n
And that m6als how much in-
crease IN your revenues Z"
Probably not less than $780,
COO, 600. The business has entirely
grown up since the war and it is
only within the past ten years that
it has attained any Importance.
There are now sixty-fve or sew.
enty mills in operation or being
erected, and the progress and
profits Of the manufacture are al
ready astonishing. When the chief
mill in Now Orleans was establish
ed some ten years ago we paid but
from 81 to $40 a ton for the seed
Last year we were obliged to pay
| from $40 to 80 a ton. At first w
could got such supply as we want
ed along the water courses, ant
the transportation cost but little
The demand has grown to sncl
proportions that we must now e
into the interior, and the differ
enco in the cost of getting thu
seed TO market makes the differ
ence in the price to u.s."
"Why do you think the produe
win ever equal in value one-thir'
of the cotton crop itself"
For every bale of cotton-4O
pounds there are. |, 200 pounds o
seed. The annual cotton Gro
amounts to about six million bales
which would yield, after resersin
the necessary seed for plantin

million tons Of cotton seed. Thi

A British opinion.

Smith & Edwards, IN their Liy'
erpool circular, have the following
to say of cotton;
Looking broadly at the effect Of
the Egyptian crisis on the cotton
trade, we should say that II lnper.
lis the supply of q to $ per cent.
of the worlds cotton. II affects
chiefly the fine spinning trade, but
indirectly the consumption OF AM
ericau cotton as well; for il many
of the hne spinning mills are stop
ped for want of their customary
material, probably their spindles
win TO some extent be turned upon
American cotton, especially on the
Continent. No doubt y consider.
able gap will be made in the worlds
supply if the Egyptian crop is cut
of to great extent, and we should
need mn American crop of six and
half millions at the least to keep
the prices moderate and afford the
trade sense of security. Taking
the last crop at 5,iO0, 900, and add
the deficit of 100000 bales now
visible in American cotton, the
world must have consumed 1900,
0lO in the last twelve months. II
viii probably consume six aud 9
quarter millions next season, al
lowing for n considerable trans
ference of spindles from long sta
| pie TO American cotton.

Egyptian Onions.

Ten thousand barrels of onions
were recently shipped to New
York from Egypt, it being the first
importation from that region, the
gardens of the Bermudas and Por.
tugal having hitherto supplied the
deficiencies of our homo fields.
The Egyptian onions are said to
keep better and longer than those
of more western countries, giving
them especial value in ship sup
plies for long voyages.

Recent developments show that
tho Great Warrior coal field of
Alabama is one of the richest in
the United States. Six seams of
coal, averaging four and a half
feet In thickness, have been dis
covered in Walker county, while
an equal number, il is believed, lie
below there. This coal makes ex-
cellcnt coke, aud when united by
u short railway with the extensive
