Tub Cotton Htates Congress will be as

the 18th of next July. Questions relating
to the production and transportation of
cotton and other bouthern products will
be discussed by some of the ablest men in
the Bouthern Btates. Hon. D. £. Butler,
of Goorgia, is the President of the Con
gress. All egriouliural societies and State
or oo-operattve Granges are invited to

It 4. stated from Washington that the
law in relation to the payment of postage
on newspapers at the offioes where publish
ed, whioh oame into operation January 1,
uiU reduoe the inoome to the government
from that source about one-half that de
rived under the old law. There is great
saving, however, inolerioal - labor in the
poet oiHoes, and as the law is thought to
be satisfactory to both publishers and sub
scribers, it is thought thatthe department
will not make any recommendation for its
omondmont.
Tub Atlanta Herald of Baturday says ■'
“The forty-three conviots new in the
hands of Mr. Geo. D. Harris were leased on
yesterday to Mr. John Howard, of Oolum
bus. Hr. Howard bid MlGO per head for
them ; a pretty fair price. They will be
put at work outting turnpike roads
through the country, sad making brick.
There were ten bids in for the conviots.
the prices ranging from #17 per head to
#60. Messrs. John T.. Grant A Co. did
not put in a bid, having ‘as many as
they wanted.’ The Dade Coal Company
tried to get them but failed."
BnuEwo commercial men are on the
look-out for a burst np of the Ohioogo
“ooruer" in wheat and other grain. It is
said that the speculators there now hold
ten millions of dollars worth, and that
they still bAVo to buy in order
to keep up prices. But they oan-
not always hold out at this game,
and when the stock on the market
gets too big for them to manage, and
they have to let their hoard go for what
it will briug, then will come the tumble.
No one will regret it if it orusbes them
beyond hope of recovery. But unfortu
nately there sro all over the country
honest deulers who have had ta buy at
their fiotitious prices, and who may also
be serious losors.
MAim anuMirofi
It has oome at lest—snob a declension
os tt amounts to! The first rock thrown
from Pennsylvania, does not exactly
bring Gen. Grant “down,” but makes
Aim define his position as that of a politi
cks sittiogontbe ragged edge of supreme
indUfereBoe. He is not, and never has
been, a “candidate” for the nomination for
• third «stm; and will only aooept such a
nomination if circumstances seem to
render it on “imperative duty 1”
Every man who oonsidera the language
and professions of politicians, in con
struing such a declaration as this, will
readily see that it amounts to no declina
ture at all. Where is the politician in the
whole oountry (George Francis Train
perhaps exoepted) who will admit that be
Isa “aendidate" for the Presidency? It
has far so tong a time been the oant saying
of politicians that tho Presidency is an
office which should neither be sought nor
declined, that the most eeger aspirants
offset to be as ooy about it as was Shako-
psora's heroine, who “vowing she never
would consent, contented." Of oourse
Grant would deolare that he woe not a
candidate; and of course, if the nomina
tion should be tendered to him, ho will
find in the oondition of the oountry or of
his party such a state of things as will
make its acaeptanoe “an imperative
duty.”
And we most bear in mind that the
President has the power to make just
suoh a oondition of political affairs in the
oountry as he and his party could regard
as imposing on him the “imperative
duty" of accepting another nomination.
We hod e taste of whet he could do in
this direction lost year, when his troops
overran Alabama, Louisiana and Arkan
sas for party purposes—when Rsdioal
candidates shot holes in their hats and
reported that the Ku-klux bad done it;
when the white carpet-baggers about
Ooushatta, La., made negroes shoot down
Democrats, and when the latter retaliated,
raised theory of murder and intimida
tion ; when armed bands of negroes raid
ed through West Alabama, and when the
sheriffs end their posse attempted to ex
ecute the lews they wore arrested for vio
lence. All these Radical instigators of
violenco raised the cry of “more troops,'
and Gen. Grant and his Attorney Goneral
made haste to send them to overawe the
whites and oontrol elections. What
he did in 1874 bo can as readily
do in 1876, and the Presidential
prise will be a greater inducement than
any political desideratum of last year.
When Grant was nominstod for a second
term, the Radical party everywhere con
tended that the oondition of the connty
mode the election ot such a man an
“imperative” necessity; and it Is well
known that numbers ot timid conserva
tives st the North voted for him under
that very impression. They liked neither
his character nor his political acts, but
they regarded the state of the country as
demanding a strong Administration, and
therefore they went for Grant. The samo
game con be played as successfully in
1876 os in 1872, at least to the extent of
influencing the nomination of the ltadi-
oal party.
Occasions will not be wanting forgetting
up a ease of “imperative duty” for Gen.
Grant next year. There is the Centen
nial celebration, under the gloss of whioh
hew departure" in Amerioan politics
may be urged for the glory of a “second
Washington.” The Booth's povorty or
inadequacy in the pageant may be cited
os proof of continued disloyalty, and an
other term for Grant and Bheridan may
be advocated on this score. If this esu-
not be done, and the Bouthern “out-
ragos” no longor Buffloo to fire the North
ern heart, our foreign affairs may easily
be moda available for the getting up of
an “imperative" eall on Grant. The Cu
ban and Mexican questions, especially,
are “day in the hands of the potter,” and
atn atony time be worked into the Bhapes
desirable.
Gen. Grant, it will be noted, doeB not
objeot to a third term as a principle. He
makes it a matter of personal preference
or political expediency, by admitting that
a state of things might arie whioh would
make it his “imperative duty" to aooept
it. So Ctosar thought when he was about
to accept the orowo, and so every ambi
tious revolutionist has thought when he
clutched supreme power by devious ways.
The supporters of Gen. Grant for nnothor
term will not regard his letter as a dam
per upon their desires, but will rather be
encouraged by the avowal that circum
stances may indnoe his aooeptanoe. Unless
we are greatly mistaken, he and they will
address themselves to the work of
making the oiroumstonaes to suit their
purposes.
Tux Radicals opposed to a third term
wera last week' comforting themselves
with the following remark by Gen. Grant
in his speech to the Sioux chiefs: “I
want to see the provisions made in such
a way that they will have to be respected
by my successor and other Administra
tions in the future. " They regarded this
as a declaration of his purpose not to ue-
cept a third term. Of aourse all suoh
willing interpreters will consider Gen.
Grant's Pennsylvania letter os entirely
satisfactory.
