The governor completed the epistle yes terday, and is now making a revised copy of it, which will be given to the press to morrow. The letter is pronounced by those who have seen it to be one of the “saltiest” productions that has been writ ten for some time. The governor employs an unlimited amount of satire and ridicule, flourishing them like kecn-biaded knives. This letter was provoked by a communi cation which Judge Durham addressed to a friend in Kentucky, Squire James Gill, of Shelby county, in which, speaking of Butler.

Filscher is also the walk ing delegate of tbe s’litie cutters’ union. Yesterday In arid at Thompson’s yard and as a union official ordered the men to quit work on the ground that Thompson was not complying with the union scale of wages. Quite a disturbance resulted and Thompson culled tlie police and Filseher was aarested. This morning he appeared before Justice Meech, charged with dis orderly conduct. Thompson appeared to prosecute. The court read the section which provides a penalty for interferring with workmen or attempting to induce them to leave their work. Filscher insist- i ed ttiat he went there in his official capacity, imt tlie court fined him $50 for a violation of the section, dismissing the count of disorderly conduct. The case is i the first one on record in this country. ‘ Oil '( hullin'.

There have been no changes in the inte- ! rior arrangements of the white house in anticipation of the bride’s coming. There has been such a spring cleaning oh the es tablishment would have received if there ! had been no wedding in contemplation. | After such a cleaning it is not sucli a mean house, with all that lias been said of it, and the president has said that the house which the people think good enough for the pres- | ident to live in must surely be regarded as good enough for the president's wife. Miss Rose Cleveland, the president’s sis- , ter, arrived at the white house to-night. [ There will be no happier person in the circle that will assemble in the blue room : on Wednesday evening, excepting, of 1 course, tlie bride and groom, than this sis ter of the president. Hhe has known for 1 several years of the probability of the mar riage of Mias Folsom and her brother, and she lias shared with all the members of the family a sincere gratification in con templating it. An exceedingly cruel and false story of the relations’existing be tween the president and his sister, which appeared a day or two ago, and which was a baseless fabrication, furnishes an excuse for referring to this subject. No brother and sister were ever more cordially affectionate or considerate of each other. While 51 is:-. C leveland was tlie ladv of the white house she was treated with the kindliest consideration by tlie president, and her friends were frequent aud unrestricted visitors. The president knew other intention to publish her book, 1 and neither opposed it nor pretended to any indignation thnt he did not feel. Ori the contrary, he appreciated and shared in 1 the cordial reception accorded to the work, with which he was fully acquainted before it appeared in print.

Many senators, representatives and other officials called during the forenoon and congratulated the president on his approaching marriage. He was in a very happy frame of mind und endured the chafing und pleasantries of Iris visitors on the subject of his wedding with the utmost good nature.

The reports for this month, to the national agricultural department, represent the planting of cotton as delayed by cold rains, in the region of the Atlantic coast. It is estimated that 80 per. cent, of the planting has been done, and the balance will be effected before the end of May. As usual, Florida leads all states in early plant ing. Texas i« ahead of its last year’s record, and so is Georgia, while the other states, especially- those on the gulf, are behind. Home replanting has had to be done where the rains have been heavy, and in such places the stand is deficient. This, however, will soon he made up, and what is fairly advanced is looking well. The most unfavorable condition is reported for Louisiana, where the cold aud wet season lia.s retarded the growth of the plant. One thing is specially noted, and that is the pertinac- pollcy fusion of making cotton the sole crop, to the excl of u system of diversified farming. No section seems to serve as an exception.
