Elegy on Paul Hamilton Hayne.

BY PROF. t. B. RUSSELL, A. NJ.
Our Southern Hayue shall sound no more
HIS glorious harp of varied stratus!
Its music swept from shore to shore,
Its thrilling echo yet remains.
He sang of battles and of war;
But, whispering peace breathed through
his strings;
His poet soul did blood abhor,
The white dove DER him poised her wings
The beauties of the universe,
He pictured living in his lay;
For natures spirit was his nurse,
To bless his genius night and day.
But, in the fields of mind and heart
His thoughts subimest notes attuned;
Their imaged scenes will ne'er depart,
Till time be pierced with mortal wound.
Our Southern Haynel His genial soul
Was like his native sunny skies,
w hose lovely tints play graceful role,
Attracting hearts and wondering eyes,
AS seas his country's shores surround,
His great heaEt clasped her glorious form,
And vet, embraced earth's vast bound,
With philanthropic love, and warm.
His pearly harp Ia silent now
His muse, in her last sleep, is hushed!
Woe clouds his country's heart and brow
The roses for her bard are crushed.
Adieu, adieu, our Southern Hayne!
Thy loss from earth, we sad, deplore!
Yet thine IS joys eternal gain
Thy harp shall tune on Heavens shore
Fort valley, Ga, JulU, 1856.

Prayer cures are by no means infre-
quent, If newspaper reports of such cases
are to be relied upon. Every few days it
is announced that some woman who mas
been bedrldden for years has suddenly
taken up her bed and walked. The latest
case Of this kind is that of Miss Lizzie c.
Sulotf, Of Akron, o., a years of age, who,
until within the last day or two, has
been a helpless invalid. She received a
fall when she was 10 years OF age which
left her without the use of her limbs.
Seven years ago her eyesight also failed
her, and soon thereafter she sank so low
that her parents, surprising her dead, sent
for an undertaken, but she recovered lust
in time to escape the grave. Recently she
was taken to the house of n relative in "A
neighboring town, and there she was
brought in contact with a Presbyterian
minister who has great faith in prayer.
He wrote TO DR.. Charles Cullis, a faith
cure believer in Boston, and it was deci-
ded that he and a number OF friends in
different parts OF the country should pray
for the suffering girl on the afternoon Of
Aug. 8. To the astonishment OF those
with her, soon after the praying began,
she rose from her bed and walked. In
five days thereafter she was completely
restored TO health. There are many, OF
course, who do not believe In prayer
cures, but 1t must be admitted that there
are a great number OF intelligent people
who do.

Cotton Trade of New Orleans.


New Orleans is uneasy about Its cotton
trade. For several years past the proper
tion of "transit' cotton to the total re-
ceipts of the port has steadily Increased.
This has been due to the numerous "nXeo
charges" incurred by cotton handled
there, which has made the system OF ouy-
ing at the country shipping points grow
in favor, thus avoiding much of the ex-
pense incident to cotton sold by the New
Orleans factors. While the number OF
bales nominally received at the port
makes a satisfactory showing, the Ne"
Orleans cotton men do not make anything
out Of a very large proportion OF this COT
ton, for 1t is simply shipped through the
city, which becomes OF no more conse-
quence than any other railroad sta
ton or steamboat landing where
the product Is transhipped.
The necessity OF stopping this country
buying has for some time been apparent,
but it has been impossible so far to secure
united action. OF course nearly every
line Of business is affected by the inroads
made upon the cotton market Of the Cres-
cent City. When planters and country
merchants sell their cotton at home they
buy their goods from the most convenient
market, and there are plenty of cities that
can compete with New Orleans in prices
as well as rates Of transportation.
The business men of New Orleans do
not seem to be much nearer satisfactory
solution of the difficulty than they were
when they confronted it several months
ago. They, perhaps, appreciate the fact
that it Is a mere matter Of competition,
but they are 10th to take radical steps to
meet the issue as it presents itself.
New Orleans is large and attractive
cotton market. There is something mag
netic in its quotations, but what people
LOOK to when they sell their cotton is the
net receipts. Exorbitant charges and
too many OF them are the negative pole of
the magnet that exerts a repelling in
fluence. New Orleans, as we'll as every
other place that finds It's vitality as a cot
ton market being sapped by The country
buying system, will have to do something
besides talk about the matter. The only
effective thing that can be done Is to re-
duce the fixed charges, and not to resolve
to kill the goose that lays the golden egg.

The approaching cotton season has
very bright outlook for Savannah, and the
indications are that more OF the staple
will be handled here than ever before.
This is partly owing, it is stated, to the
fact that many of the exporters and buy
ers will hereafter con1ine their operations
TO this city, as experience has demon
strated that it is more satisfactory to buy
IN this market than in the interior. The
extension Of the lines of railroads center
Ing in this city, and the reduction Of the
cost OF handling cotton, will also add
largely to the receipts of the port. Our
merchants are seeking to secure the busi-
ness of the country opened up by the new
railroads in. South Carolina and Florida,
and an early season and a very active
business wear rs confidently predicted.
