The Evening- Stars. Venus and Jupiter, the brightest of alj the starry host, are now unusually brilliant in the suuset sky. Indeed, the former, on a clear afternoon, can frequently be discerned with the naked eye while the sun is still abovo the horizon. The evening stars are ap proaching each other with great rapidity, and in about two weeks will be as near to each other ns the diameter of the moon. Their nearest upproneh will be early in the eveuing of the 30th January. On the 27th, at sunset, Jupiter wili’be almost equally close to the new moon. Each of these conjunc tions will present an astronomical spectacle of rare and brilliant beauty, the like of which we may not see again for many years to come. Lamentable Affair. From a reliable gentleman wo have learned the particulars of a horriblo and lamentable occurrence that happened near Fort Valley yesterday, in which a father was shot and killed by his own son. The unfortnnate man was Dr. Jackson, a broth er of the Jacksou who kiled Col. Ellsworth for hauling down a Confederate flag from over his hotel at Alexandria, Virginia, during the first year of the war. Dr, Jackson removed to Georgia during the revolution, and has been residing here ever since. The circumstances of the kill ing, as we have them from our informant, were these: There had been an angry family alterca tion, during which the Doctor is said to have forcibly ejected his son from his premises, who thereupon turned and fired upon his father twice—killing him. vVe have not learned whether the young parri cide had been arrested or not. but presume so. —Macon Telegraph.

[From the Circular ot Win. Bryce A Cos. New York Cotton neview. New Yoke, January 24, 18(58. General Remarks. —The Conference Com mittee, during the week, have decided to adopt the Horse bill repealing the Cotton Tax with the Senate’s amendment, as regards Cotton of foreign growth. Such contradictory reports havo been circulated about the repeal of this tax that it is perhaps well to state plainly what Congress has done on the subject: “No internal tax is to he paid on Cotton grown after 1857. The import duty on foreign Cotton is to be repealed.” In other words, tax must bo paid on all Cotton now in the United States ; but what Cotton can be planted this spring can bo grown and sold without reference to the internal reve nue department. Advices frotn the Cotton States, this week, have been rather more encouraging as regards the prospects for another crop. From many sections of the Atlantic States we hear of en gagements of labor at extremely low rates, and of the determination of planters to try and raise some Cotton; but in every case a less quantity than attempted in 1867. The crop will have to be made without the aid of factors’ capital or credit, and the appreciation of this fact is naturally restricting the acreage planted. The price ruling; next month will have much to do with the amouut of planting attempted, and not till May, at least, will it be possible to form any sort of an approximate idea of how largo a decrease there may be in the acreage put in Cotton. We bear of some farmers who will give up the cultivation of Cotton entirely, and devote themselves to raising “garden truck” for this market. But as that business can only boos a limited character, and be carried on when there is very speedy communication with this point, the subject is hardly worth consider ing in its relation to a deceased Cotton crop. The annual eircnlars from Liverpool are singularly unanimous in regard to the present position of the Manchester mills, which seem to be running full time, and if not making money, certainly not running at a loss. This feature is very favorable to present prices being sustained with temporary fluctuations, for it seems that all the small dealers in Great Britain are taking courage and buying a little more freely than they have since the panic of 1566. This feeling begins to manifest itsoif here, and a hotter tone pervades the goods market than for months past Prices do not really improve, but goods are saleable at prices which do not mako a loss to their producers, which stato of affairs is a vast improvement over the position of the market since September.

Several executive communications were presented. The bill forfeiting lands granted to the Southern States for Railroad purposes was resumed. Mr. BlainVs opposed the bill, as such judgment ought not be taken when those States are unrepresented in Congress. Mr. Julian explained that forfeiture did not apply to completed Roads, and added that when the States came back in the Union, as they would in a few weeks, he would favor renewing the grants. Amendments were proposed excepting from the operations of the bill the Nash, ville <fc Decatur Company, and the Alabama & Tennessee Company, without coming to a vote. Adjourned.
