LARGEST CIRCULATION II THE CITY AID COUNTY
THURSDAY FEBRUARY 8, 1866.
SOUTHERN AGRICULTURE.
We have observed with iuterest the in
tense solicitnde manifested in all parts of the
world rc-pecting the present condition of
agricultural affairs in the Southern States.
It may be regarded as an unmistakable indi
cation of the great comm ercial value cf the
peculiar products of one soil.
The immediate future of the cotton grow
ing interest is the subject which deservedly
attracts special attention, and it is generally
agreed that the prices of this article must ad
vance, and very materially, between this
time and the gathering ot the crop of 18C6.
The old stock of cotton is well nigh ex
hausted, and that which remains to be
brought in is for the nost part of inferior
grades. The crop of I8G5 waa very small—
the war closed too late in the season for the
planters to change their plan of operations ;
aulby the first of May it seems probable I hat
the entire stock of desirable cotton will have
found its way to market. Such is the com
petition caused by the foreign demand that
the higher classifications are not now to be
bought, save by those who are sharp, enter
prising, and well acquainted with the mar
ket.
Toe shrewdest dealers In the fleecy staple
are now actiBg upon the belief that it will
go to seventy-five or eighty cents per pound
between this time and the first of August
next. The hope isgeneially expressed that
by another year producers will be better
able to comprehend the situation, and to ad
apt themseves to it, and be better supplied
with the means of applying the industrial
resources of the South.
It must be admitted that a few months
since the agricultural prospects of the South
were gloomy enough; but, in our further
observation, several facts of an encouraging
nature have been developed. Extensive dis
tricts have been found where the toich of
contending armies has never been lighted,
where the planter's dwelling honses, gin-
houses and negro quarters stand as of old,
greatly out of repair, to be sure, but still fit
enough for absolute wants; where planta
tions are still fenced in and a considerable
portion of the neeessary farming stock yet
exists. In this category we may refer to
southwestern Georgia, extensive districts in
southern, central, and western Alabama,
eastern sections of central Mississippi, some
portions of Louisiana, and the whole of Texas
and Florida.
It is true that in some localities satisfactory
arrangements have not vet been made be
tween the planters and the freedmen, owing
to the fact that many of the former have not
the means to pay wages and all outgoings
for a year before next season's crop can be
gathered in, and from the absence of all the
credit and facilities which existed anterior to
the war.
But despite all these difficulties tho high
prices of cotton will certainly lead to such
an accommodation of the conflicting views
of tho planters and negroes as will secure the
planting of an extensive area. Tuo marked
improvement in tho conduct of the latter
since the commencement of the new year
warranto the belief that they are not incapable
of conducting themselves in their new con
dition with propriety and good order if the
white race promotes their improvement and
welfare by all the influence they can bring to
bear upon them. Whilst many of them have
for a time mistaken liberty from bondage as
liberty from work, it has only been for a
lime, and the great mass of them, it appears,
are now returning to their old pursuits, and
exhibiting a degree of prosperity, steadiness
and good sense which no one could have
anticipated. In acting thua they have shown
not only good seuse, but good feeling, and
manifest the praiseworthy desire to live in
peace and harmony with the white race.
In this connection we would direct atten
tion to the fact that they are not responsible
for the change of relation to their former mas
ters ; that they have not taken up arms to
procure their freedom ; that whilst the pro
cess was going on, inaugurated by our own
secession, tuey remained passive, loyal,
obedient; and therefore do not merit from
us exhibitions of prejudice or rancor on ac
count of that which they bad no agency
whatever in producing.
There are many considerations that ad
monish both races to the cultivation ot mu
tual good ieeling and the practice of indus.
try—such as the well known fact that the de
mand for cotton is rapidly increasing from
day to day and that markets for the fabrics
of which it is made are beiDg constantly de
veloped in all parts of the world. It
is known, too, that notwithstanding the war
cut off the best supply, and all kinds of In
genuity and bounties were engaged in re
leasing Europe from a dependency on this
country they have all failed. It is now settled
that the cotton bell of the world is confined
to these Slates and that its product will al
ways drive from the marts every competi
tor. Nor is there even a possibility that,
if ail the industry were put to task, there
would be any material diminntion of
prices or profit, taking the present
value of things as calculated through
greenbacks. If our promises are correct
the deduction certainly follows that it is the
duty ol every man iu the South, white and
black, to make us as much cotton as be can.
T11E LEADER OF THE RADICALS.
Tbaddeus Stevens has earned for himself in
history an unenviable reputation. His name
will go down to posterity astbe embodiment
of faction in its most fanatical shape—as the
impersonation of political acerbity—as the
libeller who shows no courtesy to political
opponents, and no veneration towards men
who have been held in reverence for their
wisdom and public services. EE|'. stands
alone in the annals of parliamentMi$ debate
as the libeller of the Head of the Executive
Government, between whom and its legisla
tive departments terms of mutual respect
have become traditional.
There is no parallel in the history of the
proceedings of Congress since the establish
ment of the Government to the vituperative
language of Mr. Stevens towards the Presi
dent during the speech he made on the 31st
ult., on the passage ol the amendment to the
Constitution with regard to the basis of rep
resentation. There is no parallel in fact, in
the most, intemperate periods of our political
warfare, when party spirit ran high aud lan
guage the mostenvenomed was employed,
to the coarseness of the terms which Mr
SteveDS has introduced into debate. We
doubt whether a parallel can be found to it
anywhere in legislative history. He has not
ouiy proved himself the Thersites of the
House, but bas emulated the fish women of
Paris, who used to abuse the Queen
of Fraoce at the outset of the French
revolution.
Mr. Stevens, with admirable taste on that oc
casion, denominated the President **a learned
pundit ” and “ the man at the other end of the
avenue." He affirmed, in relation to the ef
forts of the President to reconstruct the
Union fas report says) “ that for tuck con
duct a feu years ago ( we presume he means two
centuries since) a British king would have lost
hie head." This language must have excited
the disgust of all those who had been con
versant with the courtesies of debate and
those forms of speech which indicate mutual
respect between the legislative SDd executive
branches of the Government. But this was
not all. If the language of the speaker is
the only excuse for the absence ot that in
stinctive regard to what belongs to the gen
tleman of ordinary refinement, what shal 1
we say to the terms of vindictive scorn in
which he spoke of the framers of the Con
solution? He found fault, as report says,
with the “ botched work turned out by the
fathers who framed that instrument." Now
wheu one recalls to mind that such men as
George Washington, Alexander Hamilton
James Madison, Eltnund Randolph were
engaged in this work—were the “ botchers
of this instrument which bas been regarded
in all parts of the civilized earth as a moou
ment of human wisdom—one cannot but feei
that the vulgar cant and abjurgation which
has come to be the distinguishing character
istic of Tbaddeus Stevens has surpassed
itself in this instance and become positive
irreverence and impiety to the fathers of the
republic.

Tire Sale of Postage Stamps on Credit.
Senator Dixon, from tho Committee on Post Office
and Post Roads, succeeded on Friday last in getting
tho passage of tho bill for providing the southern
pout offices -with stamps. Sumner took this opportu
nity for uttering ono of thoso solemn warnings to the
Cabinet Ministers that they must not transgress the
laws of Congress, and particularly must Postmaster
General Dennison look to it that he avoided the erring
path, of the Secretary of the Treasury. This fSmin..
adjuration, says the correspondent of the New York
lleraid, was utterod in the usual style of the “Hub’s"
Senator, and quite Impressed the colored brethren In
the galleries, who opined that somebody was being
called to a stem accountability for not conceding
their pre-eminence. Senator Wilson in this connec
tion waa desirous of exercising charity, and was of
the firm opinion that if the Postmaster General had
conferred office upon former rebels it waa a blind de
parture from duty, which he would gladly retrace.
Before the paasago of the bill Senator Cowan adminis
tered a stinging rebnke to 8nmnor for the disposition
to cast odium and the stigma of disloyalty upon the
heads of the governmental departments.

SENATOR SUMNER’S LAST MEASURE.
Guarantees of a Republican Form of
Government.
On the 2d lust., In the Senate, Mr. Sumner (Rep.)
Introduced the following joint resolution for carrying
out the guarantees of a republican form of govern
ment in the Constitution of the United States, and en
forcing the constituUonal amendment for the prohibi
tion of slavery.
Whereas, It is provided in the Constitution that the
United States shall guarantee to every State in the
Union a republican form of government; and whereas,
by reason of the failure of certain States to maintain
governments which Congress can recognize, it has be
come ihe duty of the United States, standing in the
place of “guarantor," where the principal has made a
lapse, to secure to such States, according to the re
quirement ot the guarantees, governments republican
in form; and whereas, further, it is provided in a re
cent constitutional amendment that Congress may en
force the prohibition of slavery by appropriate legis
lation, and it is importont to this end that all relics of
slavery should be removed, ineluding sU distinction
of rights on account of color; now, therefore, to carry
oht the guarantee of a republican torn of government,
and to enforce the prohibition of slavery,
Be it resolved, by the Senate and House of Repre
sentative*, That in all the States lately declared to be
in rebellion there shall be no oligarchy, aristocracy,
caste or monopoly invested with peculiar privileges
and powers, and tbsre shall be no denial of rights,
civil or political, on account of color or race; but all
persona shall be equal before the law, whether In the
courtroom or at the ballot box; and tbit statute,
in pursuance of the Constitution, shall be the supreme
law of the land, anything In the Constitution or laws
of any such State to the contrary notwithstanding.
The preamble and resolution were laid on the table
and ordered to be printed.
Mr. Sumner gave notfoe that ha ehould more this
joint resolution at a counter proposition to the consti
tution amendment passed by the House.

He will Introduce his Inimitable Performing Bas
so Horse
“ C Z A R.»
This horse was raised In Southern Rnssia by a Cir
cassian soldier. Like the Arabians, the nomadic
people of his tribe form the strangest aud most In
violable attachments to their unexcelled horse*.—
They make their favorite coursers ihelr special com
panions, and train them to be very fleet and Intelli
gent. This Circassian, daring one of his wandering
tours, became very needy, and soon found eager pro-
josers for the purchase of his splendid horse. At
ast he consented to part with lilm. He was brought
before the purchaser, and there ensued a scene that
has been used as a subject of a poet’s pen. At a sig
nal from him, the horse,
“ With flowing tall and living mane,
Wlihnostrilivnever stretched by pain.
Mouth bloodless to the bit or rein ;
And feet that Iron never shod,
And fianka unscarred by spur or rod,
Tiie lioandlng horse—the wild, the free—
Like wave that dashes on the sea,
Came proudly thundering on.”
There stood the noble horse, the admiration of
every beholder. No steed of the Tartar, or Ukraine
or Arab breed could be more beautifully formed.—
Never did Landseer or Rosa Bouheur see or imagine
- more perfect animal.
He will also Introduce his thoroughbred Trick
Horse,
“ ANDY JOHNSON.”
his comic pony “JANUARY,” and his EDUCATED
MULES.
He will execute Ills FLYING LEAP, or Leap lor
