The 4'oufbderMe Cotton Loan,
! Tito whole qoe«tlon in relation to tlie claims
ol the United States against certain individuals
in England, and the status of the Cotton loan,
has been submitted to Sir 11. P. Collier, a barris
ter of great eminence and late English Solicitor-
General. It appears that tho question was—
whether or not merchants and others, on being
sued in England by the Government oi the
United States for property or money held by
them, at the termination of the war, belonging
to the Southern States, may not successfully
plead tho Confederate seven per cent. Cotton
bonds ns a set off, to tho extent of tho amount
that each delcndant may hold of them; and Sir
II. P. Collier gave his opinion as follows:
In tho event ol the United States Government
"ting in tho courts of this country for debts due
nr property belonging to tho late Confederate
Government, I am of opinion that defendants
who may bo holders of Confederate Cotton
bonds are entitled to set up a counter claim
against the United States Government in respect
to tbeso bonds. This counter claim will be
founded on tlie principle, (lint if the United
Slates assert in our courts claims accruing to them
through their succession to tho property and
rights of the late Confederate Government, they
are bound by tlie liabilities of that Government.
Should the United States Government bring ac
tions of debt, I think that the holders of Cotton
bonds may plead them as a set off. Should they
proceed for a tortious conversion of property, a
technical difficulty will stand in tho way ot this
del'enso, and it may be necessary to resort to an
equitable plea, or possibly to the protection of a
court of equity The equitable case of the
bondholders will be strengthened by the facts
that the United States Government have pos
sessed themselves of the Cotton set apart as the
security for the payment of tlie bonds. The
form, however, in which the delcnsc 1 have in
dicated mny be raised, will be a matter of subse
quent consideration, when (lie mode of pro
ceeding adopted by the United States Govern
ment is known.
Russia on the Eastern Question.—Tlie
n otitik (Bohemian Guzelte) contains an official
letter on tlie Eastern question, addressed by the
ivernmeut of St. Petersburg to tho Servian
Minister of Foreign Adairs. Tho following is
he text: “Russia is not at all disposed to nd-
ourn the solution of the Eastern question. She
docs not wish to hear anything more said about
onciliation between the Turks and Christians.
Let the Christians obtain their freedom by force
of arms, if they can. Russia will only watch
that foreign Powers do not interfere in this war
between the Porte and its subjects; for if they
did interfere Russia would he forced to take up
actively the delense of Christians. Russia de
sires that Turkoy-in-Europe bo replaced by three
rcdcrjjJ States, namely, Scrvia, Roumania and
Oreeco, with a central government at Constanti
nople.’’ Tlie Russian programme lias tlie great
virtue ot being intelligible.

“ERROR PEASES TO BE DANGEROUS WHEN REASON IS LEFT FREE TO COMBAT IT."—Jefferton.
VOL. XIII.
From tho New York Times.
A tin Ire In (icorgla.
Macon, Oa., Monday, March 11,1807.
Willi the exception of Mr. Joseph E. Brown,
l Jio oracles have hitherto observed a sphyn.v-like
siienco on tlie great question now presented to
tlie people for immediate solution, and, therefore,
the \Vuit-a»d-sce-ites soot:
A Debt op Six Thousand Millions.—The
present recognized national debt is a little less
than three thousand millions of dollars. But the
•aims of loyal men, North and South, for pro
perty taken or for property destroyed during the
progress of the war, have yet to lie allowed and
counted. Tho Noes York Timet, whoso editor
was a member of the last Congress, soys it has
ivory good reason to believe that tho amount oi
such of these claims as will be found to be per
fectly just, and such as must be paid, will ap
proach very nearly, if it docs not equal, what is
understood to he the present aggregate of the
iMlonnl debt. This may seem extravagant, as
it certainly is alarming; but it is believed time
will show that it is not an over statement of tlie
actual fact.
The Preservation of Fruit Trees.—The
Farmer’s Club, of the American Institute, of
New York, recently held a meeting, at which a
discussion took place on tho best method of de
stroying curculio on fmil trees. One of the mem
bers slated that if a hole was bored in the body
ot the tree and filled with sulphur it would so
infect the tree llmt no insect or worm would live
upon it. Upon some doubt being expressed as
its efficacy, he said that lie had tried tlie reme
dy, and spoke from experience. The chairman
mmrked that if this he a sure preventive, it was
worth millions to thecountry, and we need never
ack a supply of fruit in the future.
Death ok a Warrior.—The English papers
ontain u notice of the death of William Tlio up
on, tlie Maori chief, one of tlie most rcmnikable,
ten that any native race has ever produced. Ilty
ught in the Waikato war, and fought with skill
nd gallantry. He conducted military opera-
(ons in a manner which excited tlie ungrudging
Iinirntion of General Cameron, of the Britisli
my, and lie averred that he took up arms not
-'cause lie hated the English, or was inimical
the rule of tlie Queen, but to defend tlie right
his people to their land and to prevent the
tinetion of their national lile.
[ The New York World yesterday gave the
jnineut Dr. Butler the following first rate notiro
’ bis late brilliant speech in tho Hpuse on the
Reposed relief ol the suffering poor in the
until:
I Dr. Butler’s scheme for feeding tho starving
foplo of the South is worthy of that great and
od man. lie proposes that the pair ot game
(fits recently presented to Gen. Leo he made
to a fricassee for their benefit. This is a natu-
I suggestion from Butlei’s point of view. He
vays had a cock in his eye.
“ " " ♦
■Something Startling.—The Philadelphia
tdger's New York correspondent, of Friday,
jys:
ll)o not underrate tho importance ot the Mon-
pal aud Ottawa telegrams to-day to tlie Asso-
ated Press as to the apprehensions there of
jother Fenian invasion. There are movements
i foot not far from here, as I wrote you n few
lys ago of a character to wurrant tlie expccla-
Vl of something startling in that direction bc-
lo long.
«.
Stonewall Jackson.—Efforts arc being made
1 tho faculty and alumni of tlie Virginia Mili-
' Institute to erect a memorial chapel to com-
Imorato the services ot Stonewall Jackson, and
I memory of Crutchfield, Patton and others of
l alumni, who fell during the recent btruggic.
^cnU are now engaged in various portions of
i country soliciting subscriptions for Hits pur-
nsane.—Air. W. II. Thomas, formerly Scna-
jfrom Jackson county, N. C., lias been placed
be Insane Asylum, nenr Raleigh. It is
kgiit the political condition of the country is
[cause of his insanity. He was a prominent
i among tlie Cherokee Indians in tlie West-
part ol the Slate, aud commanded n regi-
nt nr brigade of those Indians during tlie
)ukl Prevented.—A Virgiuia paper says a
I days ugo two belligerent young men of Pqrts-
JHh, with their seconds, met in tho grove near
|uuval hospital, to settle a dispute at Hie muz-
bf revolvers. Afileof Untied States soldiers,
i fixed bayonets, fortunately and opportunely
ared, and prevented the spilling of blood.
|it it Itself.—The Light Way, a journal ca
shed in Boston lor tlie pur|ioee of keeping,
i the wounds between tho two sections, and
|ch was conspicuous tor its mi levolcuce and
brcpolousoess, has died. It is supposed that
It itself aud died of poison.
seem sjill to be the most
numerous of tho three divisions of popular sen
timent to which I alluded In my last from Hus
place. Governor Jenkins has gono to Washing
ton within Hie last few days, and ns it. is said by
those who profess to know that the object of his
Journey is to see “what is best to be done,” it is
probable that nothing will ho done until he re
turns and announces tho result of Ids observa
tions. In the meantime, however, efforts are
made here and there to tiring tlie people together
to consult and take action favorable lo the vol
untary adoption ot tlie course prescribed by (lie
Sherman bill; but the efforts arc feeble,and only
tend to demonstrate that tlie people have not
yet made up their minds, partly from a not mi-
natural unwillingness to precipitate what they j
believe will tie their ruin, partly from a lingering
hope Unit tlie courts will relievo them, aud partly
from despair that anything they can say or do
will Improve their condition. In all tlie confu
sion of thought and diversity ot sentiment which
tho situation produces, on one subject there is an
overwhelming preponderance of opinion, namely,
that whatever course the State may pursue, all
must quietly and scrupulously obey tlie new form
ot government, submit to all its regulations, boar
patiently all ils hardships, aud endeavor by peace
ful endurance lo lighten tlie weight ol the burden.
Among the many evils to which, it is predict
ed, tlie military dcsiwtisin will give rise, that
which seems to lie the most dreaded is the de
moralizing influence which tlie newly conlerred
jxjliticnl power will have upon the negroes, first
in tlie destruction of all profitable labor, ami then
in tlie antagonism, bad feeling and strile which
the attempted operation of social equality on Hie
one hand, and its resolute denial and resistance
on tho other, will almost inevitably create. Were
the negroes more enlightened, more accustomed
to the exercise and responsibilities of freedom,
and better trained to tlie duties of their condi
tion ; and were tlie whites morefreu from the in
fluence of tlie habits; prejudices and social opin
ions in which they have been born and brought
up, there would he less ground for this apprehen
sion, and less reason to fear industrial or social
disturbance. Blit to one who lives in this coun
try, who knows Hie almost lieliilcss ignorance;
childish weakness and reckless improvidence of
the nugro, and Ids iitlerunlitneis for the discharge
of tho simplest duties of citizenship, it does not
appear to be unreasonable to tear that lie will use
political power unwisely, and that Its possession
and exorcise will unfit him for tlie pursuit of that !
honest, continuous industry by which alone he 1
can earn a livelihood and become a really useful j
member of society. Wiien he ieels that he is j
called to quit tlie plow to goto the meetings and |
exercise a right which is denied to his employer, 1
he is not likely to return to the plow as content- I
edas when he left it, or as docile in his recognition
of his social inferiority to his employer, on which j
the employer will insist morejealously than when
tlie lines ot demarcation were more clearly drawn, j
But if tlie negro’s instinct and Hie while man’s j
sensitiveness do not produce this jealousy and
social disturbance, the influence of Inui and de- !
signing men, who tor their own selfish purposes j
will seek to control tlie negro vote, will certainly j
produce them. Already in Augusta, where a !
municipal election is about to take place, iniscru- I
puluus agitators are working actively to array !
tho blacks against the whites, to make the for- j
uier believe that tile latter are their deadly ene
mies, and that there is no safety tor thorn but in I
using tho power which Congress has given them I
to acquire control of tlie affairs of the State. A i
meeting ot colored people has been held there,
at which a Radical lawyer was present aud made 1
a most inflammatory harangue, the tendency of
which was to create a bitter antagonism between
tlie two races. Hero is tbo justification of tlie
fear which fills every mind that the voting negro
will become a tool in tlie hands of bad men and
a dangerous politieiau, a disobedient and unpro
fitable laborer, and animated by ignorant instinct
and wicked counsel will endeavor violently to
break down those social barriers which separate
him from what 1ms hitherto been considered the
superior race. AV hen it is remembered that the
voting negro population is fuliyequal in numbers
to Hie whites who are now permitted to vote in
Georgia, tlie apprehensions which arc expressed
cannot be set down as croaking, nor can those

who arc not immediately affected by it look on
the working of Hie experiment without anxiety
ns to the res jit.
The Frccdmen’J Bureau can by a wise firm
and enlightened use ot its power to a great ex
tent allay those fears by the impartial enforce
ment of labor contracts, the suppression and
punishment of agrarian tendencies, the protec
tion of tlie white man agniust the negro, as
well as tho negro against tlie white man, and
by persistent efforts to encourage and foster
good feeling and good will between tlie races.
Hitherto tho bureau, as represented by many ot
ils ngenls, lias pursued an opposite policy, and
lias seemed to take it for granted, in every case
brought to its attention, llmt the negro must he
right and the white man must be wrong. It it
cun administer its duties impartially, with a view
to social aud industrial conservatism, nnd ignor
ing parties nnd politics, it can do vast good ; lint
if it cannot, and if it assumes every white man
to be a rebel and a malefactor, and every negro
to be a “ suffering loyalist," it will do incalcula
ble evil.
The President’s veto message on tlie Military
bill, now that it lias been read in lull, lias given
enthusiasm to the gratitude which the people
have long tell toward him tor his steady efforts
to shield them Irom the late which lias befallen
them. It is regarded by those who read and re
flect and know, as one ol tho ablest expositions
of constitutional law, nnd of the rights and du
ties ol democratic government which lias ever
been made; while those who only see in it an |
earnest effort to protect their liberties, and an
unflinching adherence to what tlie President I
^believes to he his duty, loudly applaud their |
^defender, even though the delense was vain, and |
express tlie warmest gratitude to their advocate, I
even though the verdict tins been adverse. No- ]
body entertains the least doubt that tlie Presi
dent will faithfully execute the law, however
much lie may disapprove it, and the universal |
desire not to embarrass him in the execution ot
his duty, gives strength to tlie determination to j
yield the most implicit obedience to the rules
and regulations which will supersede the judg- |
ments of courts aud tlie mandates of the slatute
book.
Winter Lingering in tiik Lap of Spring.
—By tlie paragraph below, from the Richmond
Times ot tlie 18th, it will be seen that our Vir
ginia Iricnds, too, have been favored with a spell
of weather:
Old winter, reported gone, showed himself,
again i/i propria persona on Friday night, and
Saturday the old woman in the clouds was vig
orously picking her last goose. Yesterday tlie
skies were swept and clear, hut tlie wind howled
harshly, cutting keenly at tlie corners, aud win
ter, muffled to tlie cars, dancetl a jig to the memo
ry of 8t. Patrick,
“ Blowing hi. finger Ups to keep Ibciu warm."
We trust the fruit buds were not forward
enough to be “ gobbled" by this sudden and un
expected “cold snap." March egmo in all blus
tering like a lion. We hope the month will be
true to tlie latter part ol tlie adage related of her,
and go out like a lamb. Let us pray
"That beyond yon cllds of snow
Vernal hlodnouis for na blow.”
The Preb*.—A Washington letter of a recent
date says:
The Hon. Ed. McPherson, Clerk of Hie House
of Representatives, having lieen authorized by
Congress to select pa|>ers of loyal proclivities in
the seceded Stales to publish the government
advertisements, is now engaged in the work of
carrying out tlie design of Congress. It is sup
posed llmt this advertising will be worth to eacli
about *7,000 per annum, nnd numerous applica
tions are being made to My. McPherson for this
fat slice ol public patronage. Tho majority of
them are from parties who propose, with the aid
given, to establish journals with Rudical politics
at different points in tlie Southern States. A
lew are Irom the proprietors of old established
newspapers, who seem willing, for Hie sake of
tills subsidy, to give up their long cherished
opinions. The government advertising in the
two papers of tins oily is now worth, Unstated,
about $10,000 each per annum.
