As much interest is felt throughout the country in regard to the prospects of the cotton and other crops we will be grateful to our planting friends and’others n the interior for information on that subject. Those who have opportunities for obtaining valuable infor mation in regard to the growing crops, the working of the free-labor system, and fcindrsd matters, of gen eral interest, will confer a favor by communicating the same to us. THE POLITICAL. STRUGGLE IK KEN- TUCK IT. Tide for fi^etkya 4 There are two candidates in Kentucky for the Clerkship of the Court of Appeals. One is the nominee of the Democratic party and the other is supported by the Radicals. The canvass, which is spirited and active, is re garded with absofWng interest by the ob serving politicians of the country. Ken tucky is among the first to lead off in the approaching elections, and as the result will exert a moral influence upon the succeeding elections in other States victory is of the highest importance to either parly. The Radical caudidate, Gen. Hobson, has some military reputation to encohrage his friends, and the Demoratic, Judge Duval, only the record of an upright personal and con sistent public life. The former is supported by an organization which is acting in-harmo ny with the political creed of the Radical Con gress, the latter is the fearless champion of tlie restoration policy of the President. Inasmuch as the issue of the struggle involves the po litical fate of the peoplo of the South, it concerns them to know where the Demo cracy of Kentn cky plant themselves, for it is the only organized party in the country from which, with the assistance of the Conserva tive Republicans, they can hope for success in the struggle with the despotism of the dominant faction. We obtain the gratifying information from our Kentucky exchanges that the Democracy, including a majority of those who sided with the South in the late war, are not only hopeful bat confident of a glorious triumph. ItTAs'-pfedieted, ifipdeed, that the Radicals will be. so overwhelmed with defeat that they will never venture again upon the political arena in Kentucky. W’e say God speed the expected triumph, for the only safe foundation upon which to continue our Government, is the simple, old fashioned Democratic idea of a government of limited powers, as defined by its original founders. The perils of the Republic have fearfully in creased as it has grown in wealth, in numbers and in extent of territory. The present crisis is demonstrating that it cannot survive beyond a certain limit the increase of power and expenditure, for these bring upon it the destroying demons of unchaste ambition, cu pidity and corruption. The present multi plication of offices, continued enlargement of the powers of Govern meijt, and enormous expenditures, if not arrested by a revulsion in popular sentiment, will give us no advantage in our republican in stitutions over the most despotic, aristocratic and rotten of the gov ernments of the old or the new world. THE CABLE. Our latest Northern exchanges contain some additional and Interesting particulais relating to the Atlantic Cable. It is stated that the entire distance run by the Great Eastern between Valentia on the coast of Ireland, and Heart's Content on this side, was 1GG9 miles, and the length of the cable played out 1863 miles. The total Black was less than twelve per cent. The average speed o f the vessel was five miles per hour, or 120 miles per day. The weather was remarkably pleasant during the entire voyage of two weeks. The news from Europe was received daily and posted up on board of the Great Eastern. The cable across the Gulf of St. Law rence, connecting New Foundland with the mainl and, which has been broken a long time, will be immediately replaced with a new cable. The want of this connecting link has probabl y occasioned the delay in the re ception of dispatches from Heart's Content. It is sure, however, that the Atlantic Tele graph line will be open for business in a few days. The Great Eastern and the rest of the fleet, after taking in coal, will proceed to the point where the last year’s cable was broken, and, if successful in raising it, the parties engaged having a sufficiency of new cable on board, will splice it, and, returning Uf Heart’s Content, complete the second line. Tbe North era papers complain enor- mous charges — one hundred dollars for twenty words-r- which tbo company hha estub- lished for the transmission of maroigbo, and it is thought will greatly dim inish its useful ness. Another objection to it is the exclusive ownership by English stockholders, with both ends on British soil. To Mr. Cyrus A Field, an American, is accorded the chief credit of the grand achievement, in the face of obstacles which have been surmounted only by years of scientific labor and herculean toil. U8SIA. AND AUSTRIA, stated that the lint news which the Atlantic cable transmitted to America is that a treaty of peace had been signed between Aostria and Prussia. The simple fact was communicated, without any details. If the announcement is entitled to credit it indi cates that Austria has been so completely ex hausted by the rapid and vigorous onsets of the Prussian armies a9 to deprive her of all power to- protract a struggle, the result of which mijst have been ultimately the surren der of the capital to the enemy. It would appear from thfs that Austria was without an ally in Eurojie—for even Russia, the only power whijtiijbas any direct interest in seeing the system of 1815, for which Austria was fighting, maintained 1n Germany, has held aloof irom the contest. Thus situated, and warned by the French Emperor that the only points upon which the leading-powers of Europe would intervene against Prussia, were points which Austria herself might se cure by a direct treaty^ with her antagonist, it is not surpritihg that she has virtually ac cepted the dictation of peace by Prussia. It was announced some days since that the Emperor of Austria bad agreed to an armis- tiz—* : *- ! iA.on the loth of Sjuly by the'king'ef Pririfeia, i * * The condition on which this armistice was tendered was, that daring its continuance, Austria should either flatly reject or fully ac cede loThe terms of peace which King Wil liam anil Count Bismark had determined to lay before her. What these terms were, in detail, will not be known here, probably, uiltil the'vrival of another staamei from Europe, -s/ * • - „• .i »' • In-1 ounterfeiting Vases—Screw Loose in the Treasury Department. The trial of the counterfeiters in New York is being published' with vigor. The disclosures, says the Herald, are thus far extraordinary. . They show that “the man agement of the Treasury Department, from the beginning of Judge Chase’s administra tion to the present time, has been danger ously loose, if not wilfully criminal. The issue of these counterfeit Treasury notes, from impressions of plates waken in the Treasury Department itself, is immense. We learn that not less than seven hundred thousand dollar? in these bogus notes were sent to Europe By last "Wednesday’s steamer, before the authorities had an opportunity to seize them. The country is flooded with these spurious bills, from one hundred dol lars to the smallest fractional currency, and so well executed are they that they defy detection, except upon the closest scrutiny. The Government prosecuting officer labors under considerable difficulty in securing the conviction of these counterfeiting gangs, on account of promises of immunity made by Washington officials to the culprits. This is but little sfiort of compounding the felony, and is reviving the stool-pigeon system, w hich we had hoped was banished forever from our system of criminal jurisprudence. The District Attorney calls up a prisoner and finds, to his surprise, that some Treasu ry official has been before him, and, instead of his being prosecuted as a criminal, he is to be used as a witness. Many of the most notorious pnjf djmgerotta counterfeiters thus escape justice'ancrTeave the courts unscathed and at liberty to prosecute their nefarious business as they choose. “We require mbYe vigor, more ibtelligijDce and a more thorough system- of-overs ceing in the Treasury Department, The stealing of impressions of Treasury plates, ifie i jiving out of enoimous financial jobs to private outside parties, the deficiencies r.inou.uting to many millions proved to exist in T’ce ac counts of the Treasury officials, all gho w the imbecility and corruption that have nt [irked the management ot the Treasury Depart ment from the time C’hase became its chief. Chase was no financier and no business man; simply a couutry politician w-ith one -sided and partisan ideas about every public mut ter' fto wonder abuses,' immoralitj’’ and corruption crept into the Treasury Depart ment under his imbecile management. And to take the experience of the past year, Secretary McCulloch has proved tfHjqjit ariy as incompetent a financier as Chase, at id as unfit for his position. The President sli ould examine into the state of things as they exist in the Treasury Department, and idler being satisfied of their confused and corrupt condition, select some competent person to fill the place of^lhc present incumbent.

Hansell work recommended as delegates from the State at large. Panic in Augusta.—We infer from a n ar ticle which appears in the Augusta Chroni cle of Thursday morning, and from private reports that have reached us from that city, that there is quite a panic among the people there in regard to the health of Savannah. We can most positively assn re ouPOp-cquntry friends that there is not the slightest ground for their apprehensions. No malignant or con- tageous disease exists at this time in Savannah and we have only to refer to the official list of interments for the past few weeks to prove not only that the general health of the city is better than ordinarily at this season, bat that the mortality will compare favorably with that of any other city of the same popula tion, North or South. The Vast Philadelphia Wigwam.—The wigwam for the meeting of the National Union Convention will be situated in front of the Girard College, and is being rapidly, lmt substantially constructed. Accommodations will be afforded for fifteen hundred delegates, with committee rogps, &c-> and about nine - thousand spectators.

Arms for the Liberals in Mexico.—The New York World gives a long and detailed account of the sailing from the North river of a vessel laden with arms and amuuition for the Mexican Liberals. Gen.

The Grand Jury of Fulton coonty, at the recent term of the Superior Court of that county, made the following recommendation: Wo would recommend to the Legislature o? the State an amendment to tbs present statute in case of rape, so far as to make it punishable with death, instead of a misde meanor, as now affirmed by law. Certainly none deserves a severer punishment. The sanctity of virtue demands it; public just ice and female purity demand it; the satety of society demand* it; it ia invoked by every tremtilbqe tone of weak and detenceless chastity ; it ia demanded as a shield against the nnhc flowed embraces of unbridled bru tality- ' : ' • Dan Rioe’a elephant “Romeo” went on a spree U'.e other day and ’ came near doing much mischief. He was so intractable at New Milford,. Pa., that Dan undertook to bring him to terms. For this purpose his bind legs were chained to a tree, and his fore legs were fastened with a rope through» tackle, upon which six men tagged iu the vain liope to throw the leviathan. Willi a blow of his trunk he released his fore leg, ; and by a tremendous effort broke bis chains. The men scattered in irif IllWfetiofi^, pursued by the animal. Ooc of them saved his life by bounding over a fence, and the elephant, for satisfaction, threw down a long span of it.

C. from New York, for valuable public documents. [From the N. O. Picayune, 28th ult.] Unfolding of the Plot. A paper was circulated in this city yesterday even ing, purporting to be a proclamation of Gov. Wells, or dering elections to be held in certain parishes to fill vacancies in the Convention of 1864. We suppose it to be a genuine document, although it. purports to be signed “under my hand, at the city of New Orleans, this 27th day of July, A. D. 1868,” when the Governor is known not to be within many miles of this place. It also wants the attestation of the Secretary of State, who has, we learn, rdfused to countersign it, or attach the seal of the State, us is cus tomary, if not material to the paper. Not one of the State officers, W6 believe, elected at the same time as Governor Wells, and on the same ticket, forming with him the State Administration, agrees with him in these extraordinary proceedings. The paper was however, doubtless, issued by the Governor, and is In that respect a genuine production; but it is one he has not the shadow of authority for issuing, and is of no more iegal force than it would be if it had been issued by any other person, in or out of the State. It lias been demonstrated over and over again, that the Convention of 18G4 has no legal existence in 1866. It expired -by the'conclusion of it9 labors, and the constitution it made. It attempted to prolong its own •tence by providing that it might be reconvoked by the presiding officer. This Authority to convoke the defunct body was in itself a usurpation; but it was a conditional authority rested in a particular person to be exercised in a single event; and there was no provision made for the intervention of the Governor at all. That person was the President of the Convention, and that event the failure of the people to ratify the Constitution. The President of the Convention was directed to call it together if the Constitution were rejected. It was only iu that event that the provis : on to fill vacancies shoo’d come into force in that way. “Then and in that case” he j the President of the Convention) might call on the proper officers to cause elections to be held. The case never occurred; the Constitution was ratilied; the President of the Conve ition decides the body to be constitutionally extinct; and the pretended Authority, which was a usurpation, lapses by its own terms, and leaves not a vestige of title or authority anywhere, or in anybody, to fill vacancies in the body, ali ve or dead. Nevertheless, Gov. Wells has issued this paper, V x. firing and commanding elections to be held to fill the* vacancies which the very authority be recites de- da res are only to be filled in the event that the con stitution should be rejected. It is the plainest possible case of the use of a power whi th those who bwtowed it had no right to give, for a pi ixpose different from that to which they expressly limiitedit, and in a manner entirely different from that which they prescribed. T1 )e Governor bases liis proclamation on the report of J ndgo Ilowall* as President pro tern, of the Con vent tiou, wheirftadge Howell only presents a small minority, which irregularly excluded the true Presi dent—if there be a President at a 11—and is a mere pretender to the authority, without the support of inon* than a fourth of a quorum of the body ho affects to speak for, but which the Governor accepts as the sovereign authority of the State iu perpetual ses sion. Tlae proclamation does not call elections to fill va- iu«;ies in the Convention as it existed when it ad' journedin 1864 ; but to bring in new' members to the number of 51, from parishes which were not repre sented in that Convention at all. There is no notice taken of vacancies which have occurred among the members actually chosen and taking part in ito pro ceedings. The real fact we suppose to be, that a -majority of tlie surviving members of the Convention is not to be had in support of the Executive and his partisans, and that it is designed to bring in by the new elec tions, in which it is thought that no citizen of the State, not in the Governor's clique, can consistently take part, enough to get a majority who will sanction everything done, however irregular, and depeud on the Executive and a partisan judiciary which is in confederacy with him, to overthrow a unanimous Legislature, all the State officers elected by the people, and impose a'new government on a disfranchised people. How this revolutionary scheme is to be met and baffled peaceably and within the terms of the law, is a subject for the most serious consideration for the peo ple of the State. That there are means, we cannot doubt; nor can we doubt that these will be taken with a deliberation befitting the gravity of the occasion, and carried throug with the firmness which such high duties, in such emergencies require of patriotic citi zens.
