THE MAYOEALTY. The appointment of our esteemed fellow citizen, Hon. Foster Blodgett, as Mayor of the City of Augusta, l>y («eu. Pope, the military commandant of the Third District, was received on yester day, together with a Board of Council men, whose uamea appear elsewhere. We feel gratified in saying that the ap {•ointments meet with warm and general approbation, and we believe that a mure judicious selection could uot have been made. Mr. Blodgett is familiar with the du ties and responsibilities of the position, having discharged them with signa l ability in the years 1839 and 1860; he is acknowledged to be a man ot excel lent administrative capacity, untiring energy, and thoroughly devoted to the interests of the City. Haring been a Union man, be is in a position to cooperate with tue existing military authorities; and having been a kind and liberal master, be has in a large measure the confidence and good will of the colored people. These considerations, while they add to his capacity for usefulness to the City, under the circumstances which surround us, will not, we believe, detract from his acceptability to those who have opposed him in the heated contests o' the past. In his appointment, General Pope has acted in accordance with the wish of one of the largest public meet ings ever held in connection with a local nomination, and, as we believe, from an earnest desire to promote the inter ests of the City, and preserve harmony and good will among all classes. The Board of Conncilmen appointed by General Pope will, we believe, also be entirely acceptable. It embraces men of long experience in the manage ment of City affairs, and men of such energy and public spirit as are needed to put the City on the track of progress and improvement which should mark its luture history. The new board enter upon their duties under trying circumstances. The heavy indebtedness of the City, and the prevailing financial pressure, will render the most judicious management necessary to maintain the public credit and meet the heavy current expenses of the City government. That they will be equal to the responsibility involved, we have ample assurance in the number of skilled and experienced business men embraced in the new board. The Dead and the Living. Are we —to use the language of the Richmond Whiy, because we had war in our attempt to secede, and lost many of our bravest and most useful citizens because we lost millions of property and all our rights—are we sullenly and forever to refuse the only mode by which the living may beeotne prosperous and self-government may become esftib lish*d? Are the living to be appealed to qn the ground of duty to the dead, and the dead disturbed in their peaceful slumbers with invocations to give forth Irom their graves utterances of perpet ual vengeance aud everlasting chaos? We think not. If our dead could speak they would rebuke this Pagan spirit that would make one grand holocaust of the people and property of the Com monwealth, under the idea that it is the only way to appease their manes. They would teji us to submit to a necessity as resistless as death, and restore to the States of the South repose anil self-gov. eminent. We tnay judge as to what would be tbe feelings and admonitions of the dead could they feel and advise, by the feelings and admonitions of the soldiers who survive, by those of Lee, Johnston, Beauregard, Longstreet, Hampton, Taylor, Mat)one, Chalmers, Gordon, Wheeler, etc., etc. Some seem to have an idea that we owe a duty to the late Southern Con federacy. On this point, let General j i/ongstreet speak, than whom no one fought more gallantly in behalf of that Confederacy. He said in a recent letter : “If tbe last funeral rites of the Lout hern Confederacy have not been performed, let us, with doe solemnity, proceed to the discharge of that painful duty, and then return to our allegiance under the process iaid down by Con gress.” Did it ever occur to those newspapers whose aim appears to be to prevent reconstruction by making the patriotism of 1201 to Ikiii the patriotism of to day, aud to prevent our people from going for restoration now because they went for secession then, that they are no better, no truer, no more honorable, than General Longsirt-et ? When men are not too modest to put forward pretensions tosnjierior virtue, courage, and devotion, they should not be too modest to point to the services On which such pretensions are based. •Me Hull, the violinist, is in St. Peters burg.

Actual experience is better than any mere theories, especially as regards practical results as to the profitableness ot cotton planting; and it behooves the agriculturists of the South to count the cost before they devote the largest breadth of their land to the cultnre of the staple. The New Orleans Times has a detailed statement of the results on a cotton plantation in Mississippi. A planter in that State found that, on an average, during ten years, his yearly crop of cotton was about four bales of lint to each hand employed—say 430 pounds to the bale. We abridge his account current, which figures up as follows: 10 hands make 40 bales—lß,ooo lbs. of cotton, value 1 at 25c. per lb $4,600 From which has to be deducted the expenses of getting the same to market, including river and fire insurance, freight, revenue tariff, • weighing, drayage, storage, com missions, etc., footing up BRS Leaving $3,635 There has to be now deducted the expenses on the plantation, vis : Wages of 10 hands, at sl2 per month $1,440 Rations for same 720 Corn and feed for working stock 800 Blacksmith's biii, repairs. loes of live stock, rent of planta tion, and other expenses... 1,475 —$4,435 Actual loss to the planter SBOO We have the authority of the Times for saying that the above statement is from an old resident of the State he writes from, and who has had much to do with cotton for a long series of years. Four bales to the hand, he says, is about an average from one season to another. lie argues that there is no prospect for a cultivator to realize sus tainance for himself and family, with cotton at twenty five cents per pound, for there is uo allusion made to house hold and family expenses in the above estimate. But besides these figures from our New Orleans cotemporary, there are still further and weightier reasons why Southern planters should curtail the breadth of their cotton lands this sea son- The price of cotton is put down, in the above estimate, at twenty five cents per pound. But what guarantee have our cotton producers that the staple will command that price next fall? On the contrary, with an uimost universally conceded impending war in Europe, it is pretty certain that the tie mund will largely decrease, and prices proportionally decline. And again, the paice of grains, all descriptions of breadstuffs arid provisions, on the hap pening of this war. will as surely go up, and not only will prices go up, hut there will he a scarcity, owing to the great demand from abroad. Superadded to all this, is the fact now two painfully apparent, that there will be no bread or breadslutls in the ‘South, comparatively speaking, when the next crop will be harvested. All these considerations, especially the still iater one, brought so forcibly before us by the exigencies and dis turbunces to trade and commerce, and the drain of bread.stnffi from these shores, induce us to keep the subject prominently before our reader*, and to prevent that famine which will surely afflict the South, if a sufficiency of food is not made within her own ferries. 1 It is difficult now to obtain enough to \ feed our people, either by purchase or through the many avenues of charity recently opened tor the purpose. How much more difficult will it be to keep starvation off next season, when the foreign demand and high prices will absorb the usual supply and exhaust the resources from which we have here tofore drawn that supply, Gov Brown in A uguata. Bv invitation of several of the most prominent citizens of Augusta, ex- Governor Brown addressed a large and enthusiastic assemblage of citizens, composed ofall classes, in that city, last Saturday afternoon. The ex Governor is doing gtxtd work in aid of reconstruc tion, and we are glad to observe that he indulges in no vitujieralive or even dis respectful iangutge, when speaking of those opposed to the reconstruction measures. Public sentiment is under going a wonderful and rapid change in' the direction of a prompt acceptance of the term* now tendered by Congress, and those would-be leaders and journ alists who act upon and advise the d> nothing (wlicy must soon either fail into line, or stand out of tbe wav, else they will be overwhelmed by the swelling tide. —Atlanta Era. —The special correspondent of the New York Herald,, in British Honduras, dated at Belize on the #th of April states that a number of Indians were to be placed on trial for their lives on dif ferent capital charges connected with the late raids on the colonists. The Indian scare had subsided. Tbe weath er was very dry, and the people were suffering from the drought. Sugar was corning in very fast. American gold was at from four to five per cent, pre mium. Witt Cwtiwa Gw n wr Dawat On this subject, the following com— menu of Wm. Bryce k Cos., of New York, will be foam) interesting: Ihe attention of the trade during the week has been directed, not no much to the rapid decline in Liverpool, us to coojectaring when it would stop. The universal opinion has been that while cotton cOuhl be sold in Liverpool mid replaced in America for less money, a decline was certain. The reaction most begin on this side of the water; nnd the question has been how could this reaction be brought about? Plainly when cotton could not be shipped on any margin of profit, or when New York, New Orleans, and Liverpool, were on about the same basis. The very panic which ruled in Liverpool seemed one of the causes which brongh t about the reaction, as cotton bids were thrown in such disfavor that none but the Yery best houses could sell exchange except at a rate involving such a loss as to make cotton dearer or as dear here as in Liverpool. This checked the shipment of cotton, and put Sterling above the shipping point of gold, when the premium immediately rose, and cotton followed it. Specula tion, which had been awaiting the low est point before buying, took hold of Cutton, and if any support from spinners is brought out, it is not unreasonable next week to look for an advance above the rates now current. This theory is at least a plausible one, and by reference to the corresponding period of last year we find a similar state of affairs existed. The more imminent danger of war between France and Prussia favors a higher premium oil gold ; and whether there be a war or not we think the tendency of gold is upward, unless a greater degree of steadiness appears iu the Liverpool market, for we are largely debtors to Europe, and if Cotton does not go for ward, gold must. We therefore are inclined to believe that if there be no advance, there is but little danger of a decline in the currency value of the staple. Still, it must be borne in mind how great is the dullness which pervades all branches of trade, and how heavy is the stock of the raw material iu Liverpool, at which port at least forty thousand bales per week must be re ceived of American cotton, for the next six weeks, in addition to imports from other countries. Against this heavy supply we knoar the demand to be com paratively limited, and if her stock in June exceeds a million of bales and our crop prospects are flattering, a decline from present rates should not be unex pected. Our market for domestic goods continues very dull, although stocks are somewhat reduced. Our manufacturers are proceeding with the greatest care, and those who have not a stock of raw material ou hand are buying but a week’s supply at a time, seeming afraid to lay in stock even at the present reduced rates.
