To our Country Eriends.—As much interest is elt throughout the country in regard to the pros pects ofthe cotton and other crops we will be grate ful to our planting friends and others in the interior for information on that subject. Those who have op portunities for obtaining vslnsble information in regard to the growing crops, the working of the free abor system, and kindred matters, of general interest, will confer a favor by communicating the same THE MMSMSIPP* LEVEES. The announcement by telegraph that a bill has passed the House of Representatives at Washington, appropriating near two mil lion* of dollars for repairing the broken levees on the Mississippi liver, and that il will pass the Senate, will give universal satis- faetinn. It is known that during the war these important safeguards against the de structive floods of that turbulent river were entirely neglected, and, in some instances; they were intentionally destroyed. The loss was immense, and continues. This condi tion of affairs has taken a delegation of in fluential gentlemen from Louisiana and Mis sissippi !o Washington, to urge the passage of a law which shall aid the people in recon structing and fortifying their levees. The result of their mission has been announced as above. It is said this sum properly ex pended will reclaim from desolation not less than 3,000,000 of acres of laDd, which is un surpassed for fertility and the value of its crops in any part of the world. T lie recla mation, it is said, will add 200 000 hales to the cotton crop of the next year, and in crease this amount annually thereafter. Sup posing the cotton to command twenty cents per pound, the additional yield thus made amounts to an annual increase of 24,000,000 dollars in this one particular, which does not comprehend the corn and other crops. If. therefore, two millions of dollars will secure twenty-four millions of annual return, the Government will be amply compensated, as at the existing rates, the produce of the tax alone on raw cotton would exceed in two years the whole amount of the appropria tion about to be made. The action of Con gress upon this subject displays policy as well as forethought, for when Louisiana and Mississippi reproduce their former crops, much will have been accomplished in the wav -if material reconstruction. ha3 doubtleMd^®^^. g „ We SJtHe <* the le8dln ?, p0 ? iC ' out the world for territory 4^: JlUDcsgli* The consequence* of the - ^dU***- broken OUl In Bb r which l 1 * 1 ® heyon' 1 v ^ although at present uuinan ken, will be justly attributa ble to the spirit of conquest. ^Already we are anticipating territorial* changes on both sides of the Atlantic, and the aggrandize ment and breaking up of empires * rea I '® involved in coming events.

The Milledgcville Recorder is not iu favoi of Georgia being represented iu tbe Phila delphia Convention. On the other baud the Federal Union is decidedly in favor of the movement, and suggests in view of the shortness of the time in which to hold Con veutions to select delegates, that “our two Senators elect be requested to represent the State at large, aud that mu members ol Congress elect be requested to represent their respective districts in that Nationa. Convention; and if either of our Senators elect refuse to serve, the Governor shall ap point pome one to till his place, and if eithei of the members elect refuse to serve, tbe people of that district select some one else to fill his place in the Convention." In this way the edjtor thinks the people of Georgia, who lie says, are nearly uuanimous in favor of being represented 1n tho Convention, would be ably and truly represented it thnl body. We very much doubt the practicability of the plan. If it is the wish of the people ol Georgia to send delegates to the Convention there is still time enough to select three representatives jn the customary and legita- mate merle. JSb The Radicals and the President. A noteworthy remark, says a Washington let ter, occurs in a recent “occasional” letter to the Philadelphia press, which, in view of its authorship, is considered somewhat signifi cant. Foruev says,*tn reference to the deter mination of the President to make a clean sweep of the radicals from office on the ad journment of Congress, that “the Union men in Congress will, however, not leave Wash- ingtflu without taking such steps as will at least keep the people advised of the doings of the pro-slavery tyrants,” The remark is construed as foreshadowing a design, which has already been rumored, for Congress through its radical majority to appoint a joint committee to remain there during the recess to watch the President’s movements, sucii committee to he clothed with all the power that can be conferred upon it. It was at one time proposed to give this committee power to revoke all executive appointments; but the power of Congress to delegate such authority, or confer it upon a committee, was denied bv the wiser (heads. It is evident that now they are studying to find what powers they can confer, and intend to put as muny and as great obstacles in the President’s wav as possible. The day of adjournment will be quickly set when this more important matter is determined. The Philadelphia Convention and the Radicals.—A Washington letter says the Radical leader betray more anxiety in re gard to the Philadelphia Convention than they dare admit. It is said they wilt endea vor to defeat tbe objects of the convention by manipulating Southern wires through such in.-truments as Hamilton, of Texas, Brown- low, of Tennessee, Holden, of North Carolina, and others, to secure a Southern delegation to tbe convention of the most violent and ultra Southern rights fire eating malcontents, in order that, if possible, a row can be created. They argue that the reception of such dele gates will destroy the influence of the con vention iu the North, while their rejection will be equally damaging to the new party iu the South. The game will certainly be attempted, but will be met by counter action on tbe part of the conservatives to secure moderate representatives from all the South ern States, failing in which they will boldly close the doors against any others. Cotton Growing in California. — .Tbe Committee of Agriculture has just received samples ot cotton from H. D. Dunn, of San Francisco, California. One is a sample of Tahiti grown cotton from Sfea Island seed. The quantity raised in 1865 was about two hundred thousand pounds,, the whole of which was exported to France and England. The other sample is ol California grown cot ton, from upland or short staple seed, grown i Los Angelos county by Livj^gston and hestei, who ginned some twenty thousand ounds. a lesson of the effects of war, as no na- ju&tfy, and give their sanction to, the civil such t tion has ever had in modern days, it is not likely that we will draw the sword to satisfy the popular demand for more territory. But there are other ways leading through the mazes of diplomacy and the national coffers by which, it is believed, the selfish desire may be appeased. Of this we are assured by late advices from Washington to the effect that a scheme is on foot and about consum mated in Congress which contemplates tho quiet expulsion of the present Emperor of Mexico, and the purchase, through the me dium ol a loan to the Liberal party, of the peninsula of California and a considerable breadth of territory extending from the Gulf of California to the western boundaries of Arazona. As a counterpoise to this western acquisi tion, Mr. Banks, Chairman ot the Committee on Foreign Relations, has introdneed a bill which proposes tha*. room shall be made for the British American provinces whenever they are ready to accept the proposal of the United States Government to receive t hem ■ Of the precise character and details of this rumarkable annexation movement the public is not yet apprised. We do net question either the feasibility of the Mexican project or the probabilities ol its success. But as there has nevWr been in the Canadian Provinces tbe least public symptom of a public sentiment favorable to annexation to this country, the proposition of Mr. Banks seems something like a work of supererogation. At the present time es pecially the prospect of such un addition to the United States is decideuly faint. The British Government, anticipating doubtless a move of this kind, is stimulating the scheme of confederation, in order to render the Pro vinces so strong that they can take care of their own interests. The FeDian invasion has helped this suggestion wonderfully, and from present appearances confederation will soon lie effected. Once it is an accomplished measure, there will be no chance for auuexa tion, which will then be considered a crimi nal proposition. And yet the proceedings in Congress upon this subject would be marked by unpardonable stupidity if there were not some chatices lor success. The success of the two schemes will add millions of acres to tbe country, and will add greatly to the ag gregate wealth and resources of the nation THE FLORIDA MAILS. A Florida paper announces that hereafter the mails from Savannah will be transported to Station No. 17 instead of Thomasville, and close connection made, so that the mails of Mondays. Wednesdays and Fridays will reach Monticello, Fla., next morning in time for trains East and West on P. and G. road. Heretofore the mail has laid over one day at Thomasville and one at Monticello. although the contractors had agreed to make connec tion. We are pleased to notice this benefi cial change of schedule. General Grant not a Candidate for the Presidency.—It may be positively .stated, says a Washington letter, that General Grarit will accept a nomination for the Presidency for the next term from no party or faction whatever. His nomination would be equiva lent to an election, and his election would necessarily lead to his retirement from pub lic life at the end of his term of office. He considers himself yet too young to withdraw into retirement; and, while he unquestiona bly has aspirations for Presidential honors with which to crown his illustrious career, lie feels confident that he can enjoy such honors eight or twelve or more years hence as readily as now. These ideas have recently been expressed by him to his most intimate personal friends, and are unquestionably the ideas that will control him, notwithstanding the powerful influences now being used to win his consent to accept a nomination. FROM FLORIDA. More Villainy.—We take the following paragraph from the Fernandina Courier of the 11th: “A few days since, a colored boy named Jim. in the employ of Mr. Pratt, ol St- Mary’s, at Black Point, Camden county, Ga., twenty miles trom St. Mary’s, had a difficulty with Mr. Register, overseer lor Mr. Pratt, and came to this city where he obiaiued the aid of two more colored boys, with whom he went back to Mr. Register’s house on Tues day week. They were armed, and timed their visit so that they reached the house in the absence of Mr. Register and his wife; Mr. R. having taken his gun, had gone to his cow-pen, a little distance off. They entered tbe bouse and had gobbed, it of tne most valuable articles when Mrs. R. returned They seized hold of her and attempted to drag her into the house, and in so doing, one ot them discharged a pistol, wounding her iu the arm. They then tired twice at her little daughter, but neither shot took effect. Mr. Register hearing the report of the pistols, hastened to the house, bat before he reached it tbe miscreants made their escape, taking their plunder with them, and have not yet been arrested. It was known to the boy Jim, that Mr. Register had sold his place. They probably expected to make a considera ble haul of money, and to effect it, would, no doubt, have killed the family and burned the bouse.” _ r Extensive .Land Sale.—We learn that g-r. R. Stafford has agreed to sell his share of Cumberland Island, Ga., about 18,000 acres, to a Northern Company for the round sum of one hundred thouAnd dollars in gold, cash down. Mr. S. reserves his house and the land immediately surrounding. The Company will, it is said, put three hundred German laborers upon the Island, mainly for the purpose of growing notion, it being a well known tact that a better quality of Sea Island is raised on Cumberland than any where else on the Atlantic coast. The purchasers have certainly made a great bargain. An Undertakes 3oabep—»A Dead Man Moves—On Thursday last, James Hayward, an English merchant, residing at No. 148 Bowery, New York, was reported to have died of Asiatic cholera. The body was then lying at the Westchester House, corner of tbe Bowery and Broome steet, and an under taker was sent for to measureand lay it out. In a few minutes he rushed Thnn the room shouting, “the mau is living, the man is moving.” Dr. Waterman, the police surgeon was then called in, and on examination tound that the body had not been resuscitated, but was merely undergoing some involuntary motions caused by tbe contraction of tbe museiea ot the arms and twitching of the eyelids, a condition of things not unknown to strict observers of choices cases.. The movements referred to occur in cases where patients die ot spaam, a notable-M4»e«l cholera cases. After death the muscles re- lax and cause the movements by which the undertaker was so much alarmed. _ OMMCSICATED.J ADVOCATE OF PF.ACE.” I °rs.

From the streets, from the piazzas of the hotels, from dawn till dark, and from sun down till sunrise, Sunday bringing no re pose and no cessation, meu can be seen un der the fascination of the tables, winning or losing great sums.

I am not quite a fool; yet I got up and went down, and found her chatting and drinking whisky with Mr. Wells (one of her boarders). She says, *0 God!’ bnt I got her, and she cannot deny this.
