The Mobile Advertiser aud Register,
commenting ou lhe action of the Mont¬
gomery negroes in repudiating the
Loyal League in that place, gives to
the negroes of Alabama the following
excellent advice which we reproduce
as applicable to the negroes of Georgia
and the infamous white men who arc
deluding them to their certain destruc¬
tion. The Register says :
Let the colored men generally follow
this, example and rescue their name for
good sense from the cloud that now
hangs over it. For everybody knows,
and none better than Kefferaud Griffin,
their deceivers, that nothing lias so
damaged the negroes in the estimation
of the country as to their fitness for
self-government, as the wonderful facii
ity with which they have submitted to
have the wool pulled over their eyes
and to be made victims of, by these ras¬
cally adventurers. And iu this, the
negroes have foresworn one of their
most marked In and respectable character¬
istics. the days of slavery, the
quickness of the negro eye and the apt¬
ness of his appreciation for worth and
respectability If, in while people were no¬
torious. was their boast that they
could tell a gentleman or a lady at a
glance, and nothing was sd hard to him
as to fall into the bauds of moan white
men.
In the last two years lie lias reversed
the rule ett'his life, and now has given
up ids conscience, his judgment, ids
vole, and his rights, to the meanest
white trash that ever put its loot on
Southern soil. Let the negro survey
the array of those imported Radical
leaders, aud lie will not find ,q gentle¬
man or an honest man among them.
Not one of them that will not lie to aud
cajole the black man, and not one of
them that is not now daily engaged in
stealing. Study them, colored men,
and you will find them out a pack of
thieves aud scoundrels, who will be
sure to fleece, lool and desert you the
moment desire they have made ail the use
they of you.

The Senate yesterday received from

The following extract from Admiral
Fnrragut’s report on the performances
ol II. JJ. jVI. iron chul Water-Witch, 700
tons, 160 horsepower, will interest those
of our readers who are interested in
marine affairs. The vessel referred to
is driven fiy what is called the Ruthvcn
I hydraulic propeller, which is claimed
to hi! lar superior to anything hitherto
used. A company lias been organized
in this city to bring out this invention.
The following is an extract from a letter
on the subject hy Admiral Farragut to
the U. S. Navy department, dated Oo
»Sober ! 21, 1856 :
From the iiSc-ellent we went on
board the Water Witch. This vessel is
an iron-clad of about seven hundred
tons, carries two cight-incli rifled guns,
and is propelled iu a most novel man¬
ner. The water rises from below into
1 a box, whence the rotary pump, worked
, by steam, throws it with great violence
into two square boxes placed on the
outside ol the ves.-el, one on each side
nearly amidships, and about the water
line. These boxes are square tubes, ten
er twelve feet long and twelve inches
in diameter, open at both ends. Near
the centre is a valve, the’ under (he control
of the officer of deck, and as he
turns it,‘the either water is thrown with great
force, forward or ail, Uu, thus pro- p
pom,,. „ ., m.
So soon us we got on board we pro¬
ceeded out of the harbor, and, to niy
amazement, she went ahead at a speed
of seven or eight miles per hour, against
a fresh breeze and quite a sen. The
machinery, when once put in motion,
had no interruption until we were
alongside the wharf again.
The movements of the vessel are en¬
tirely controlled by the officer of lhe
deck, who hy mana’uvering the valves
above spoken of, can go ahead, back
astern or turn the vessel upon tie cen
tre, all of which was done with great
ease, and while I was on board.
On her return from Spithead to the
wharf she made quite as much as nine
knots pwr hour up to within fifty or six¬
ty yards ot the wharf, when she was
suddenly checked and brought to the
wharf with infinitely more ease than
any steamer I ever saw, notwithstand¬
ing she is a heavy vessel, plated with
four and a half inch iron.
It will be observed that the Water
Witch has neither paddle, screw, nor
rudder, all of those offices being per¬
formed by the hydraulic motors, under
tiic easy control of the officer of the
deck.— N. T. Times.
The remains of Gen. Griffin were
shipped from Galveston on the 16th.
They passed along the same streets
where once the little soul that used to

fist at the dead body of Gen. Sydney
Johnston. Such is life—and death!

COTTON TAX.
From the time the cotton lax was
first laid, in October, 1802, until August
1, 1800, the rate was two cents per lb.;
after the latter date it was increased to
three cents, where it remained until
last September, when the two aud a
half cent rate took effect. During this
entire period the public treasury has
realized net proceeds from this single
souicc ■ nnm. a umiiiniino mo mill II an ..l] fold iuu, In 10 less less lion man
fifty millions, while we venture to as
sort that foreign nations—but England
pal'ficularly—taking advantage of the
burdens which retarded our cotton
manufacturing interests, have been ben
efited to an amount not less than two
l,,.,,,!,.,,,! huuaiecl and „ nil fif,,. fifty mi millions ]| inn , in tile .(te Ills
placement effected in that branch ol our
trade iu the markets of the far East
where we have held such stubborn and
promising foothold, to the chagrin of
the British manufactures. How much
more we arc yet to be displaced iu that
trade remains to be seen. But if the
tax on cotton is to be retained, even for
another session, we can readily answer and
that question. Cling to that Cast drag
we shall lose the trade. it off and
we have serious doubts as to the length
of time it will require even then for us
to regain the ground lost already. In
considering the question of repeal it
behooves Congress to reflect that dur¬
ing the war which virtually put an end
to our trade in this channel—the whole
bulk of which was relinquished to com¬
peting nations—our stillest rivals were
not idle. Every sinew was strained to
improve to the uttermost our absence
from the coveted markets and to so ef¬
fectually weaken our hold there as to
prevent our future control of the trade
on the termination of the war. No
stone was left unturned—no plan un¬
tried. Government patronage; public
aud private enterprise; combined and
individual efforts; heavy aggregation of
capital; the stimulus of deep national
jealously and a general complete appre¬
ciation of the incalculable importance
of success in the undertaking, were
among the influences that were at work
against us; to say nothing of the in¬
tense zeal that was certainly imparted
by the realization that it was then or
never with them—that we might nev¬
er again be so entirely and so long ab¬
sent from the great commercial arena of
the world. Aud what was the result of
all this energy, skill and capital? The
result was that England, which sent
from her shores in I860 cotton goods
valued at two hundred and ten mil¬
lions, exported in 1863, of these goods,
two hundred and thirty-seven millions’
worth; in 1804, two hundred and sev¬
enty-four millions; and iu 1865, two
hundred and eighty-six millions-show
mg an increase ol seventy six millions
in live years; at our cost, mainly. Re
Min .am (he inc la tax Y anil anti van you lessen n„. tue eulliva
lion ot the product in this country, and
impart, of course, appreciable stimulus
to cultivate elsewhere. India, Egypt
and Brazil are all experienced in the
production of the staple, aud possess
large facilities therefor; and the chief
reasons why the American growth was
used in preference to that of other
countries were because of the lower
price, better start in the market, aud
adaptation of machinery to its length of
fibre. Let America burden her growth
with oppressive tax, thereby increasing
the cost, afford her rivals more room,
and encourage alteration of machinery
to suit other growths thau her own,
and no more could he asked by Ihe
most exacting of her competitors.Trade
bulletins show that in 1860 our cotton
sold in the Liverpool market at eleven
and a fall cents; Biazilian, fifteen and
a ha'i; Egypt!aIi, the same, and Indian
fifteen; and that, iu 1864, in the same
market, American cotton sold for filly
live cents; Brazilian, filtyaix; Kgyp
I,ian, fifty live, and Indian ove,’ fifty-four.
In 1804, England paid lour bun
dred and twelve millions lor cotton,
against two hundred and five millions
m Lo i. Nine tcnlliS ol the^taple used
by Great Britain in 1860, and nearly
eight-tenths of the quantity 1 7 used on
the coniinent . ot ,. T Luiope, , was Amcrn . an
—while in 1864 we were last on the

It is no time to permit the influence
of sectional views or to cavil about one
part ol the country bearing less of the
public burden than another part. The
fact stares us in the face, we are rapid ly
losing prestige and control in important
markets abroad, because of ill-advised
measures at home, and the longer we
delay application of the remedy the
greater will tie tbe damage incurred.—

A I risidiiil I’lnylng .Warbles.
A writer, whom we take to be Secre¬
tary Mallory, is contributing to a Pen¬
sacola paper some interesting reminis¬
cences of the exodusof President Davis
and liis Cabinet from Richmond, and
their subsequent adventures. In a late
number we find the following picture of
Mr. Davis playing marbles:
In pursuing this route, the party met
near the Catanba river, a gentleman
whose plantation and homestead lay
about a half mile from its banks, and
who had come out to meet Mr. Davis,
and to offer him tbe hospitality of his
house.
His dwelling, beautifully situated and
surrounded by ornate and cultivated
grounds, was readied about four o’dock
p. m., and the charming lady of tlio
mansion, with that earnest sympathy
aud generous kindness which Mr. Davis
iu misfortune never failed to receive
from Southern women, soon made every
man of the party forget his cares and
feel, for a time at least, “o’er ali the ills
of life victorious.”
After such slight renovation and
changes of their travel soiled toilets as
circumstances permitted, and an hour
of refreshing rest, it was a novel sight
to see Mr. Davis and Mr. Reagan, with
a little son of their kind host in their
ally, playing an animated and well con¬
tested game of marbles against his sec¬
ond son, a hoy of Breckinridge some ten years, sup¬
ported hy Gen. and an¬
other Pabinet officer. The game lasted
nearly au hour ; notwithstanding Breckinridge, the
skill of his opponents,
who plays the best game of marbles of
any leading public man since Judge
Marsliall excelled, and who had liis
usual gook luck came off victorious.
The youngsters, two bright intelligent
I Southern boys, will never forget
| ardently disputed game of marbles with
Mr. Davis, who, to their infinite delight,
seemed us much at home with all the
words of caution aud command, from
“knuckle down at law” to “roundings”
as themselves.

Gents—1 am well pleased with tho result, of
the uso of the ‘Double Refined Poudiclte,’ on my
crops. I tried it on both corn and cotton, and
am satisfied wherever It was applied tbe yield
was more than double than it would have boon
without. 1 rejrrot exceedingly my not using it
try more to extensively make tlio present hy purchasing year, hut will
up my loss a larger
quail lily next spring. 1 regard it as the cheap¬
est, most reliable, and easiest managed fertil¬
izer within my knowledge, and cheerfully re¬
commend It (as I have tried it thoroughly) to
tho farmers of this section, and particularly to
those planting Cotton, from tho laot of itn
causing it to mature from ten days to two
weeks earlier than it would without the uso of
tho Houdrotto. 1 also used it on toy garden,
and found it of much honofit to all kinds of
plants. Very respectfully, Ac.,
G. S. OGLESBY.

Sir—The Double Rofmeil l’ouili ettc 1 bought
for two oilier parties in connection vvilli uiysell
—one ol them used it on cotton ami corn, and
thinks it answered finely ; the other put it on
cotton, on very poor ground, and thinks* it
doubled Ids crop, 1 used it on com. it ansivor
od finely, and was thought hy tho hand that
cultivated the crop lobe fully equal to Rhode’s
Super Phosphate. I also used it on about an
acre ot cotton , and 1 am clearly of opinion that
it is best and cheapest fertilizer in use, and 1
anil I expect to order several tons this winter.
