The oonntry is becom ing utterly disgusted with Hayes, and daily the dissatisfaction inoresses. A firm determination would give him some friends whereas his interminable delay is strengthening every form of opposition. When the storm breaks, Mr. Hsyes will be in a very poor position to meet It. With the present foroea, and in the atti* tude he ooeupiea, if continued, he soon will be powetless to effeot any object.

Cardoso exprsssm surprise that Governor Hampton should request him to retire'in the face of the pledges he made to the President, and while bis title to bis offloe depends on the decision of the out warranto proceedings iu the Supreme Court.

In the first place, Gov ernor Hampton has made no pledge that has been violated. If Governor Hamp ton ia oonapieuoua for anything since bis election,it ia for the acrupuloua manner in whioh he has redeemed his word. He prom ised there would be no violence at Colum bia, should the trooqs be withdrawn from the State House. The troops quietly ousted that building, and Columbia has never been more orderly than sinoe that event We look upon the protesta tions and refusals on the part of these defeated Badioal usurpers as a combined inrpers effort to gain time and to bolster up the failing cans* of their usurping brethren In Louisiana.

They have been wronged but they have no power to right themselves. They have been cruel, treacherous and merciless, and have exalted little sympathy of man kind.

The “noble red man" is a fraud, and the sooner he disappears front th* faoe of the earth, th* better it will be for the cause of civilisation. To work and learn anything useful the avenge warrior is utterly opposed. Beading and writing he dispises. Helping and robbing the dead constitute his delights. Paokabd Caucus. — Its proceedings yesterday has developed the utter weak ness of the High Joints to effect anything. As reported by Bepublioans they seem to be divided among themselves. The Paok- ardites admit their requests for Govern ment aid have been ignored by His Fraudulenoy and at some period, the Commission says, he will remove the troops. Their message to Hayes forms rioh reading, as well as the aoeount one gives of the interview with the Commis sion. According to his statement that body is very weak. The oauous resolved to stick by Packard, but they will become very siok of this when bayonets are gone. Mobs W abuse.— It ia now stated def- flnitely that war will be deolared by Bus. sis on the 2lat. It is feared It may be long and bloody and may involve th* whole of Europe. One of the most fear ful features the outside world will have to enoounter is the array of terrible hard names the newpaper's night editor* will have to deoipber and th* printers to type. Their favorites are words of six to eight syllables, all of whioh are wonderfully and fearfully mad*. Baths* Tnui.—R to said th*} the cir cus that lately left Augusta has met with another mishap. At Charleston, on the Saturday night of th* atorm, when cross ing the river the fires far the engine were put out, and the waves beating against ears made the animals very unruly. The men got out to push the train across. The $10,000 walrus, kept in an open vat, ted ont to sea. The statement of the lose ia mad* on the authority of a reliable clown. This is a poor way to account for the loss of an animal which the pro prietors advertise exhibit and have it not. That style of advertising will play out after awhile. ► YnsmsDAT (Wednesday) was “Arbor Dsy* ia Nebraska. Th* Agricultural 8o- elety of the State pays $50 to the pereon who plants the most trees on that day; $85 to whoever plants the most hard wood tree*; $10 to whoever plants the most anttiags, and $85 for the greatest number ot tree* planted by on* man ia th* month at April. This system has been in opera- aararal yaara, and has resulted in the •reetton of a large area of embryo forest, greatly needed in that Btete where there ia a fang* amount of prairie. Am unpleasantness has arisen between Governor 0. 0. Washburn, of Wisconsin, and Matt Carpenter, and Washburn has come out in a long letter in the LaOroene Republican, eoouaing Carpenter of oansing th* loss of Wisconsin to the Bepublioans in 1873, by voting for the salary grab and defending the $50,000,000 steal of the Credit Mobilier ring, matters which he says led 88,000 Bepublioans to stay away from the polls, thus defeating him (Wash, bum). Washburn claims to be “grossly misrepresented,” bat he is rather 1st* in the day making hia defense. Oomobbssmam Casst Young, of Tennes- •, indignantly denies that he intends to support a Bepubliean for Bpeaker, and says that he has done nothing, in or out of Congress, that would in th* slightest warrant euoh a belief. Moreover, be does not believe that any disaffection exists in th* Democratic party, or that the Bepubliean leaden expeot anything of the kind to oeour, at least to snob an extent as to present the smallest proba bility of enabling them to saooeed in or ganising the next House. bid for violenoe; of a polite invita tion to be kicked out, with a faint hope of reoeiving aid from the Fed eral Government. Gov. Hampton, how ever, has been equal to the emergency. He will neither apply foroe, nor permit them to occupy their offices in the State House. Ha bas no desire to deprive them of their offloial papers, will permit them to seal them up, but, in reply to their communications, has announced that he has instructed the keeper of the State House to seal up the doors of their offloea until their title is finally disposed of. The Badioal party is weloome to all the capital it can make out of this affair. —OharlttUm Journal of Commerce. Tk* Dwtyr of Farmer, is View of She Impeadlag European War. Btatb or Geoboia, ) Depabthent or Aobicultube, - Atlanta, April 17th, 1877. ) To the Farmtre of Georgia ; In view of the threatened war in the east—whioh seems to be unavoidable—it becomes us a* prudent men, to avert, a* far as possible, its disastrous effeots upon oar industries, by a wise forecast in our farm economy. The indications now are that there will he a protracted war, involving the leading Powers of Europe, the neoessary conse quence of whioh will be a rapid advance injhe prioe of all food supplies. ~ of war" has already Even tho “rumor oaused an appreciable advance in and breadstuffs,and a decline in our great staple—ootton. Unusually large ship ments of provisions to the various Euro pean ports are already reported, and mtinue so long aa the war lasts. The foreign demand for cotton may be greatly reduced, and its prioe fall below even its present low figures. In view of these facts the farmers of Georgia are urged to inorsase their areas in provision crops. It ia not yet too late to iooreaae th* area to oora, even if it has to be done by reduoing the area in ootton, Let farmers plant enough oorn to insure an ample supply for the ensuing year. Let them plant crops for their hogs, and foroe them forward to secure as nearly as poMible a supply of bacon for borne con sumption. Let them plant liberally ia German millet and field peas to supple ment their eom crop in feeding stock, in order that more of their oorn may be used for bread. If th* war should be averted—of whioh there is, at present^ little probability—we will have loet nothing by" the above poll oy; if not, we will have provided against the possibility of loss or suffering. In either event, those who adopt the above advioe will have nothing to regret, while those who do not may be compelled to provisions at ruinously high id pay for them with ootton at purohsaa prices, and pay prioe* even below the cost of production. Very respectfully, Thomas P. James, Commissioner of Agriculture A Rlplaoxatlc fiwladler. Naw Yonx, April 7.—Another Edlnboro Bug, purporting to be agent of th* Turk ish Government, has been the rounds of several large mercantile houses here and in neighboring oities. About two weeks ago the newspapers announced that the agent referred to would take proposals manufacturers at Patterson for fifty Will Wow E*pr*a* Oaitam t U it certain that war'between Bussia and TufYey would depreta the market For more than slew days? Watt* A Co. think not. They say: *Tt would, w* doubt Hot, ooeaeion momentary shook, unsettle prioes on the stock exchanges of Europe, and thus un government but money settle oonfidenoe in bonds, stock and securitise; but money must and will be invested, and if oosfi denoe in bonds, stocks, eta., is undermin ed, investor, may and perhaps will turn has an to actual produce that has a positive val ue, that i*, something near the oast of production.” “Ootton seems to us to present as fair a ch*noe for profit a* any ariiole of pro duce. Prioes are low—within jd. of the lowest point tonohed last year—and if we lowest point touoneu last year—and tr we except test year, present prioes are lower than sinoe Deoember, 1857, a period of nearly twenty years. Of would not be so low as at prices but for the enormous stock herej now 880,000 bales larger than one year ago. But ev eryone understands that our present’enor mous stock has resulted from abnormal circumstances, not from over production as compared with consumption. In De cember last the receipts at th* American port! were over 800,000 bales in exoeas of the previous season to same date. All of this excess and sort* 25,000 more hss since been lost, and there will be a further falling off in the next five months of perhaps 150,000 to 200,000 bales. The distrust and uneasiness oc casioned by the varying phase* of the Eastern Question has for the past six or eight months greatly depressed the Con tinents! markets. Mo further evidenoe of this need be cited than the faot that not withstanding the moderate coals of prices ourrent, th* Continent has so far this season—say seven months—taken 282,000 bales less ootton from the American porta than during the corresponding period last season. When the Continent will com mence buying largely here or in America we of oourse oannot tell, but this much we can safely say: The actual wear and tear of cotton fabrios—the cheapest of textiles—has not, because of the “hard times,” diminished, but has doubtless in creased, and the longer ths demand is withheld the greater it must be when necessity oompels, or oonfidenoe is res tored.” “We may not yet have attained the maximum stock here for this 'tear: we don’t think we have; may not have it for some two, four or six weeks. It ia hot improbable that the stock here on 1st June next may be as much taK '1,TOO,000 bales, but this would be only 50,000 bales more than at th* same data Ust pear, whereas the present excess sa wa have said amounts to 320,000 bales. Besides when June arrives we will begin olearly to see the effects of the decreased crop in America by the diminished shipments to Europe.” Liverpool’s makgaosls. Special cable to lbs Daily Cotton Busoni, lath. Our market is in a transition state—be tween imminent declaration of war on the one -hand, and exported revival of trade on the other; merchants are not pressing stocks, but are protecting themselves by liberal sales of arrivals; Import will prob ably diminish, a* very few vessels are due; maximum stock will be reached in two weeks, if sales do not run below 40,- 000 per week; reports from Manchester are conflicting, some asserting that con sumption bas been curtailed, while others that the margin in some good* counter balance loss in others, .and that spinners and manufacturers are busy; silver has helped us somewhat, but vary little oonfi- the resent advance denoe is shown, as only viewed only viewed as temporary; low oottons are declining, although there is a scarcity, under the beliefthat * great deal is being held back in America; the Continent has been more aettve, bat their supgly is abundant, as the demands from are likely to be very small. Bulls are despondent, more from want of patience than from real necessity j but actual ootton has not suffered so much as speculative contracts; they have become reconciled to war, and are prepared for jd. decline; they think strong natation sure, and that trad* in the summer will have recovered from the shock. Bears still adhere to an over-abundant supply, disbelieve any calculations of a deficiency, maintain that the prospects of a large crop in the United State* will undermine any immediate hopes of improvement; that with war, the governments of Europe will be unsettled for some time to oome,even if the hostilities should be oonflned to Bus- sis and Turkey; that merohanta will be obliged to seek fresh assistance from the banks; th looomotivee for hi* Government. About tha same time market report* had it that tha same Urn* market reports had i about fifty tons of buffalo hair had sold to make ooarae army blankets, as supposed for Turkey. Meanwhile the bcigus agent waa buy in Philadelphia, 200,000 where he invited proposals for pair of army shoes, and 100,000 sabre bayonets; also tents, knapaaoks and other military stores. A* a pert of the dodge th* party went around in New York among the shipping houses to charter a steamer for Constan tinople, and some persons were so far im posed upon as to go to muoh trouble on his aoeount At last aupieion became aroused when the so oalled agent attempt ed, without suoopss, to borrow $100 from a bayonet man in Philadelphia. Moreover, it waa remarked by others in the trade that his blankets could not be made in competition with the wool felt blankets used by the Turkish army, whioh are the oheapest known. The Turkish Minister at Washington al so th* Turkisp Consul and others, knew nothing of the agent, and pronounced him an unmitigated fraud. It is believed some victims have loet money.

On a ahort view, dull, declining markets may be witnessed for sometime to oome, but merchants still cling to the idea that very few will be found to sell “short” at these prioes, and that to have a little ootton on hand may be a good investment, as, when reaction seta io, it will be so rapid that extrava gant prices will be paid.
