We find ia one of omr Northern ex changes the following cheerful article on the Crops and the Finance*: What a people «a are ! what a coun try we hare ! Only a few weeks ago the inhabitants of the Sooth were starring, and the North, oat of its abundance, seat them ship loads of food and hun dreds of thousands of dollars- Such a wail of absolute and extreme necessity was never beard before io our land ; jet there was no deception. This distress was real, and nobly was it reliered. To day every one of those Southern States is teeming with food, either har vested or ripening in the fields ! There are exceptional localities wh*re indo lence and ignorance shall reap as they have sown, and whose porerty-pinehed inhabitants will continue to appeal for aid. But the unirersa! testimony is in favor of overwhelming crops. Fr..-m Texas to Virginia it is the same. Ihe two thousand barns which were destroyed in the Shenandoah Valley two years ago are rebuilt and waiting for t .e products of ten thousand Cotton U growing with excellent promise where the floods inundated the bottoms of Louisiana. The tamed Sea Islands of the Georgia and Carolina coasts, long abandoned, are ready to contribute their precious long staple to the hungry markets of the world- Texas, always thrifty, thrives as she has never done before. The negroes, shiftless by nature arc rap idly acquiring habits of industry, and the old planters whose former occu pation was indolence, are taking thei suus into the fields with their hoes. This is the beginning of prosperity- T - Soa'.h bus taken a ne* lea* of !i e, a . j henceforth will press forward in the race of improvement to the development of wealth. One letter from Louisiana says, “With successful cotton this year the planters will be independent.” Another remarks : “Com constitutes three fourths of a living at the South. We shall only Lave to make op the other fourth.” The Raleigh (.V. C.) Standard says: “From what we can learn a larger breadth will be planted in cotton in this State than in acy former year. Colton will fay well at fifteen cents.” For the first time in many years, before the war as well as since, there is a ready acknowledgment that the prospect for a large crop of cotton is good. Croakers about short trope, rust, worms, etc., are nowhere beard. The season is back ward, but this makes an abundant harvest the more certain. Bat Fortune has ponred it* plenty into the lap of the North as well as the bypath, and blessed it btyond precedent. All the accounts from every State agree that snch crops have not been promised f r ten and twenty years. It U remark able that we hear nothing of weevil, rust, and midges. The eyes of the whole country —we anight say, of the whole world—are intently fixed upon t-.e maturing fields. To them there is a confiding and hopeful looking fur relief from present distresses. They are the potent meant to set in active motion the machinery of trade. Ail kinds o! business wait on their development- A successful harvest from Maine to California would aid at least $1,500,- 009,000 to the wealth of the country. '] he wheat crop last year was valued at $153.773,646, and the corn crop at $59i,66b,205. An estimate of this year's crops gives thirty millions tons of grain against twenty two millions last jear, and nineteen minions in 1860. With snch an influx of wealth the South will proride for its present needs, which are distressing, and have a large surplus to begin business with once more. It wiil have this advantage, too, tiist it can commence with a clean ledger. in former years, before the war, the South was always in arrears : it anticipated its income at least a year. Now, both the necessity and the tempt ation to live beyond its means are gone. No longer burdened by a huge family of slaves to pruvide for, and oblivious to tbe craving desires which idleness be gets, the planter joins his efforts with those of the freedman and works out the more abuudaiit reward. Cheered by bis good fortune, bis heart will enlarge with kindly feelings toward his flag and Lis countrymen, and the good work of reconstruction will be hastened- In the West the present stringency in the money market and the scarcity ot currency, which is attributed to poverty o! resource* due to former crop failures, will disappear, and an impetus be given to all departments of trade. The earn ings of railroads and steamboats will multiply fourfold. At the North, capital, t ow idle, will seek investment in numberless enter prises which now receive only a shrug and suspicious shake of the head. Mocks and securities of all kinds will improve, and we shall go on prosper ously as we b»ve done—only business will be transar •) on a somewhat differ ent bas s. Specu.a’ion has had its day and will have to stand aside. There is to be no more fattening on the exorbi tant profits extorted from consumers. 1 be dry goods men, the manufacturers, and the cotton dealers, have all bad ti.eir day of high living and their day of discomfiture and distress, and now the grain ai<d provision dealers must take their turn. The laborer will no longer be oblige ! to starve because his Scanty purse srtll not purchase flour at fll | 'ey barrel and fork at Hi; but prices will coins down to near y what they sure before the war. la like manner an abundant cotton crop will lower the jpnee of dry gwods. With hod nod clothing cheap, wares must c.iner fail aud the employer be the gainer, or lhe workman will be permit ted to pul aside a large |or won isf his earning* which now go lor actual usees series, in either ease, the le.chUu of the (iovernsnent is ini leased, aud lb* Country relieved of a proportionate I amount ot indebtedness, Thu vale# of an oversowing harvest I* w ;v»d estimate at Mu* trnatal bin*.

W* do art go to that length, uotwufwtaadtag the siagaa tioa of bananas, tka p«run vary diatwas. and Secretary McOhlfoob'a omtaoas let ter. Wkatwwaee now ia only a pa ne at waiting for the rising of the tide, wkick when taken at the flood will lead ao to fortane- Oar cotton crop ia its qsaatity and quality, and the grain crop ia its abundance, will bring us larger returns than we have ever before eajoyod. True a* Gospel. The Atlanta Oyeatam, ia aa editorial published a few days since, says that no class of men in sore bitter in Lbcu op position to Reconstruction than those whose members filled “soil places" daring the war. This remark will apply to the opponents in both sections, bat more particalarly to those of the South. The true soldier* of both armies cherish do fouling* of bitterness, but honestly desire reconstruction. The “bomb proofs,” die speculators, the blusterers, and the nincompoop*, on both sides of the Sue, seek to keep up suite. As io 1961, the most noisy Secessionists did the least figbtiag ; ao ia 1867, those who did the least figbtiog head the line of opposition to restoration. Gen. Long*tree! staked everything upon the issue of the struggle in which be figured so gallantly. He considers that he lost fairly, and that his antagon ist* are therefore entitled to the fruits of the victory. His conduct, as the van. qnishad party is. therefore, manly and noble. It is only the sniveling coward— conscious of his hypocrisy and bad fat*b to the cause which he professed to love—that accept* the issue in a qnerel ous and sullen spirit. The truly brave and magnanimous men of the Southern armies are those who are least bitter and despondent. They feel a proud consciousness of having performed what they conceived to be their duty. They can, therefore, afford to cheerfully ac quiesce in the decrees of Him who gave the victory. That such men should be sneered at by narrow minded scribblers, two thirds of whose brains are behind their ears, is not unnatural. “ Quondam.” The Georgia correspondent of the New York Time* thn* alludes to “Notes on the Situation Mr. B. H. Hill, ex-Confederate Sena tor from Georgia, has just published No. 6 of a series of letters to an Augusta paper, called “Notes on the Situation,” which recite with admirable precision the various clauses of the Constitution of the United States, laying great sires* on the reserved right* of the people of the several States, and showing the utter poweriessness of Congress to “make or unmake a voter." It ia supposed that he will write another series of commu nications on the Tea Tax, the Missouri Compromise, and other political events of historical prominence. He forgets that he is “riding a stick horse in the ring after the circus is done gone as Mr. Cowart recently remarked. He in sists positively that Congress cannot make or unmake a voter ! He has not a doubt on that point. It is plain Gen. Pope does not agree with him. for he is makiug them by the thousands after the pattern furnished by Congress, and unmaking all who do not exactly come up to the model in every particular. A man writing columns io these days upon abstract questions of constitu tional law as a preface, and the consid erations of the practical matter now be fore the people, causes one to sympa thise with the boy at the theatre, who asked his friend “to wake him op when Kirby dies,” but not before. Heavy on the ‘‘St&y-at Homes ’’ The Atlanta Opinion tenderly alludes to the above class as follows : Gen. Longstreet is still being pelted bv tbe little billets and little editorial pop guns in Georgia and elsewhere. This is unfortunate for Gen. Longstreet. He ooght to conciliate the liule fellows. They wans notoriety: he oajbt to notice them. They waul to vindicate their record during the war; he ought to afford them an opportunity. Doubtless they would like to fight—as they did during the war. The Israelites, says a cotemporarv, have been much pitied because the Egyptians compelled them to make bricks without straw. But the Georgia editor who boldly stayed at home during the war, “fiang metaphorical flags to the breeze, charged in the abstract, van quished theoretically, wrote without bruins, printed without ink or paper, published without advertisers or subscri bers, and stood magnanimously in the gap when the very devils had deserted j this is the man for the laurels and com plimeniary liqo «■ while living, and for a stately monument when dead.” Skwxtob Wsi.it sxd tub Nkwsps esas.—The above gentleman disowns some of the inferences in a speech lately made in Kansas, and the Springfield Republican gives him the benefit of its views. It any*: Senator Wade disowns the obvious “agrarian” inferences from his loose Kansas speech, and says he is not fool enough to believe in an equal division of property, when five or ten years experience will be sure to pile it all up again in the bauds ol the few, and ieave ihe masses of the people as poor as ever, and no better off for their brief ricbex. In which, be is certainly very sensible and practical; but he is not fair in throwing the blame of the mis understanding upon the newspapers. They are often thus made the conve nient pack- horses for ** the loose t-x --peetoration of speech'' that seizes our stump orators on exhilarating occasions, and in a rare atmosphere like that of the plains. Mr. Wade's speech justified the inference made from it, in its whole general drift and tenor ; we accept hit explanation of its term*, as is right; but «# advise hiiu next lime he ''shoot* off hi* mouth,'' belore a border audi ence, upon the vital questions ol society and government, to know what ha thinks sad lie sere what he say*. Mr. Wade savs. too, that he does uot seek the > ftice of Presideul, or auy other; that be is an old man aud need* reel.
