as uiHcli interest is felt throughout $be country in
regard to the prospects of the cottou aud other crops
we will be grateful to our planting fricuds and others
n the interior for information on that subject. Those
who have opportunities for obtaining valnablo infor
mation in regard to the growing crops, the working
of tlie free-labor system, and kindred matters, of gen
eral interest, will confer a favor by commnuicaUug
the same to us.
The Recline in Values.
We learn irom the Western papers that
the decline in values within the last month
has been general and sweeping, ranging
from twenty to fifty per cent. It is stated,
however, that flour has depreciated less in
price than any other article of food, owing to
the fact that the wheat crop in a portion of
the West was a failure. Butin groceries,
meats, Ac., as well as dry goods, there
has been a heavy decline. Pofk, bacon and
lard have fallen at least forty per cent. It is
to be hoped that consumers hereabouts wil 1
soon receive the benefit of this extraordinary
■ reduction. It is a little singular that those
who stand between the wholesale dealers ami
consumers have not felt the saluthry infill
euces of the decline. We have thus tar
perceived but a very slight and scarcely ap
preciable change in prices, notwithstanding
sufficient timu has elapsed lor retailers t<
have heard of the decline'"in ihc Northern
aud Western markets. The retail dry goods
dealers have marked down prices somewhat,
and are giving customers the benefit of the
decline. _ • <
This favorable change in tfie provision
markets we trust will have the effect to in
duce landlords to consider- the propriety,
nay, the absolute necessity of reducing runts.
Hundreds of our "mechanics and laborers,
many of whom have. large ami expensive
families, are struggling and sorrowing under
the crushing weight of exorbitant re^ts,
Costly-fuel and higli prices for the staple ar
ticles of subsistence, and many of them
are lindiug it difficult, if not impossible,
to get work sufficiently remunerative to
keep themselves and families from suffering
the pangs of hanger. It is manifest there
fore that the present high rents cannot
continue to - be paid. The times are" ex
cessively hard, and if tlie laudiords con
tinue to insist upon squeezing their tenants
there "will bo a general default in the payment
of rents-. ‘ We suggest that it is a Christian as
well as humane duty they bring about a com
promises advance. Circumstances are forcing
a lower level of values in every thing, aud ii
is useless to uudcitakc lo resist a result that
is inevitable. The .sooner landlords and
tenauts adapt' themselves to this new order
of tilings the belter for all concerned.
A Compliment to Florida.
A New England paper says that Col. Dan
Rodman, the fighting man of Gen. Hawley’s
regiment, has settled with his family on the
St. John’s river in* Florida. He says it is a
lovely aud productive country, the people
are courteous aud kind, aud every gentleman
is treated as such. The laws are obeyed
and enforced, and individuals and families
are quite as safe there as in New England.
He likes that section for tin. i»>mt- o r tils
family, and lor the pleasure of life. Col li.
is a Republican iu politics, and always was,
from the organization of that parly to the
present day.
Who is this gentleman ? You have been
telling us that ro “Union” man could live At
the South, and lienee the States in that sec
tion must be deprived of their right of repre
sentation in Congress. Is not Col. Rodmau
a “Union” man ? Let us hear from you on
this point. All honor, wc say, to this gen
tleman for his magnanimity and manly in
dependence. The war has taught the sol
diers, at least, of the two sections to krfow
each other better. The officers aud soldiers
on both sides have shown an ability and
a courage which their antagonists could hut
respect. The men of the South have learned,
that the North can and will fight upon what
it deems sufficient provocation, and the
North have learned that the Southerners are
nut cowards, aud that it was not possible to
march with a single Northern regiment to
tlie Gulf of Mexico, as some of them boasted
at the commencement of the war. Tfiere
was mutual ignorance and mutual misun
derstanding. To the common New Eng
land mind the Southern man was
typified as a whiskey drinking, to
bacco-chewing ruffian, with a loaded pis
tol in one pocket and a bowie-knife in the
other, whose employments w r ere horse-racing
and cock-fighting, whose language was a se
ries of oaths, and whose notion of liberty
was.the unquestioned right to “wallop his
own nigger.” Colonel Rodman gives the lie
to all this by saying that the Southern peo
ple are courteous and kind, and every gen
tleman is treated as such.
Politics in New York.—Tlie Senatorial
contest in New York waxes warm. The
nomination of Mr. Greeley, the Tribune
philosopher, provokes no little discussion.
The Post objects lo him because he is not a
friend to free trade. The World favors his
election in preference to that of any other
promiuent Radical because of his soundness
on the currency question. Horace is now on
one of his periodical pilgrimages to- the
West. But previous to his departure he
lavored the public with ah exposition of the
“true basis of reconstruction.” He says,
substantially, that the main foundation of a
genuine, enduring resettlement of our dis
turbed aud upturned national structure ‘‘is
uuicersn/ amnesty and impartial suffrage." He
prefers both together, but if that is impracti
cable, be will take amnesty without the suf
frage.
Inconsistency.—-The Bridgeport (Conn._)
Farmer, which, by Mfe way, is ‘ one of the
best and most conservative papers published
in New England, says Massachusetts is a re-
markable State, and revels in self-righteous
ness and inconsistency. It elects lo Con
gress Beu. Butler, by C.000 majority—and in
the uext District, Henry L. Dawes, also by a
large majority,, who, as chairman of a Con
gressional Committee, reported to that body
that Butler bad been guilty pf robbing. tbi^.

pears that all the parties who appeared be

names, and the trial will undoubtedly bring
fought some curious facts,- for which the
Ssalkmi Review.
We have received the prospectus of a quar
terly to be entitled “The Southern Review,
the first number of which will, be issued
from Baltimore on the 1st of Jhmtary. * As
we heartily* commend the enterprise,, we
cannot better subserve the interests pfits pro
prietors and the Southern public, than by
giking .so much of the prospectus as will
make our readers acquainted with the char
acter and aims of -the publication:
This Review will be devoted to the South.
■In seeking, however, to secure the rights and
"to promote the interests of the South, no in
jury will be intended to any-olber section of
the country. It will, on the contrary, be the
great object of the Review to advance tlie
prosperity and glory of all sections,, by op
posing everywhere, and on all occasions, the
practice of injustice and wrong.
If any portion ot the world ever nee Jed
such an organ, it is the despised, the dis
franchised, and the down-trodden people of
the South. Hence, among her friends, there
are men of learning and genius, who will
gladly contribute tbe splendid labors of their
brain to the pages of tbe Southern Review.
The services of a corps of such writers have,
indeed, already been secured,and others will,
no doubt, be induced to enlist in the gieat
cause to which the Review is dedicated.
The best means of promoting the financial,
the industrial, the economical, the intellectu
al, the moral,and tbe social well-being of tbe
South are among the momentous questions
demanding tbe earnest reflections and tin-
wisest counsels of all her friends, which will
be elaborately ai d fully discussed iu the Re
view.
The great subject of Southern education
will, also, form a prominent topic of discus,
sion. The people of the South have already
resolved that our school books, and our
teachers, shall no longer be imported from
abroad; that the minds of our sons and
daughters shall be moulded, and their
thoughts directed, by our own thinkers and
"scholars. But how shall all this be accom
plisbed? How shall tbe capacity of the
South to produce her own school hooks and
teachers be roused to successful action V
How shall her powers of thought be devel
oped, and set to work in tbe production of a
science, a literature, and a philosophy of her
own ; 'which shall, in due time, challenge
and command the admiration of the civilized
world ? Upon the manner in which these
subjects are dealt with, the glory of the South
must, as every thinking man is perfectly
aware, necessarily depend, and it is precisely
upon these subjects that the Southern Review
is particularly desirous of being heard.
Nor wilt the causes and consequences ol
the war be ignored in its pages. For, until
these are comprehended, the future must re
main veiled from our eyes, nay, the past it
self must continue to be grievously misun
derstood. “If any history be useful to those
who manage republics,” says Machiavelli,
“it is tbat which exhibits the causes of dis
cord and division.”
What these causes are, and how they have
worked in our history, is still a mystery to
the people. The mists of prejudice and pas
sion, raised by the arts of a wicked race of
demagogues and deceivers, have concealed
these terrible secrets from iheir eyes; and
consequently the true remedy for the evils
under which they themselves have been made
to groan. These eauses are, indeed, only
known to that obscure diligence which lias
sought lor truth, not iu the noisy forum of
politics, but in the silent records of the
country, by long years of-patient study and
protracted meditation. No other knowledge,
it is believed, is so well adapted to stamp on
the minds of the people the sublime lessons
of moderation, inufual forbearance and jus
tice; without which the order and happiness
of the republic is among the wildest of Uto
pian dreams. Hence it is iu the interest of
all sections, as well as in the great interest of
history itself, that the Southern Review Will
endeavor to unveil the real causes of the war
of 1801. .
Finally, all the more interesting questions
of the day, pertaining to science, politics,
literature and philosophy, will he discussed
in the pages of the Review.
The Review will be issued from tlie city
of Baltimore, Md., on the first days of Jan
uary, April, July and October, at $T> in cur
rency, per annum; to be paid invariably in
advance.
All communications should tie addressed
to A. T. Bledsoe, A.M., L.L D., Editor of
the Southern Review, Baltimore, Md.

It is with extreme regret that wc mention
the fact of our having seen, at a late hour
last night, three drunken men,in the uniform
of army officers, conducting themselves in a
most disgraceful manner on the public street.
It is to be hoped tbat sneb things may be
prevented in future, by the punishment ol

NIGHT DISPATCHES.
From
•Washington Dec. 6.—the coftc^rpa^denc® Of the
Secretary of State'with Minister Bigelow on the CUb
ject of Mexicali affaire show liiri anxiety for the
French to .evacuate that couutry, according to the
Emperor’s programme.
Mr. Seward to Minister Campbell, Oct - 20th, In air
ing instructions, mentions some principles which
may "be safely hud dawn in regard to the polity
the Government ot the United States expects feiht to
pursue. This communication must be made to Presi
dent Juaxezq.ajid in no
uizo Prince Maximilian or any one else without hav
ing first reported to the Stale Department and re
ceived instructions from the President ot the United
States. He must abstain from obstructing or.
rassing the department the French. ‘ *
Wliat the Government of the United States desires
in regard to the iuture of Mexico is not conquest
aggrandisement of the United States JftT purchase pf j
laud or dtjbuiuhui; but, oa the other hand, Jhef c&fe *
.sire to sel the people otnldexico relieved from all
foreign military intervention, to the end that they
may resume the conduct of their own affairs under
tlie existing ropnblhfou .goveranieut,(orJaffdh‘other
form of government as, being left in the enjoyment ol
periect liberty, they shall determine to adopt, in the
exercise of their own free will, by their own act, with
out dictation from any foreign country, aud, of course,
without dictation from the United States; He must
enter into no stipulation with the French command
ers, or with Maximilian, or with any party* which
Mhall have a tendency to counteract or oppose tbe,
administration of Juarez, or delay the restoration
the authority of the Republic. On the other hand,
may possibly happen that the President of the Re
public of Mexico may desire the good office of the
United Aates, or even some effective proceedings on
mir part, to favor and advance the pacification of
country so long distracted by foreign or civil war, and
thus gain time , for tbe establishmout of m
authority, iipoii principles consistent with a republi
can and domestic system of government. It is possi
ble, moreover, that some disposition might be made
of the laud and naval forces of the United States, with
out interfering with tlie jurisdiction of Mexico or vio
lating the laws of neutrality, which would be useful
favoring the restoration of the laws, order and repub
licaa Government in that couutry.
Mr. Campbell is instructed to refer any important
proposition on the subject of re-organization or restora
tion :of the Republican Government in Mexico as may
ari.se, to the State Department for the information
the President. The General of tlie United States al-
;ady possesses discretionary authority us to the loca
tion of the forces of the United States iu the vicinity
ot Mexico.
The President desired General Grant to accompany
Mr. Campbell as an adviser, but it not beiug conve
nient to go, Incut.-Uen. Sherman was designated.
The cable dispatches from Seward to Bigelow, dated
November 23, appears in the correspondence iu which
Seward instructs him *.o say to the French Govern
ment that ours is surprised and affected with deep
oiicern by the announcement, now made for the first
time, that the promised recall of one detachment
Freuch troops Ijtjrn Mexico, iu November, had been
postponed by the Emperor.

The Ocean Yacht Rack.—It is said by
the New York papers tbat a great ocean
yacht race is to come off between that city
aDd a European port, next month. Three
yachts are to contend: the Fleetwiug, owned
by Mr. Osgood; the Vesta, by Mr. Lorillard;
and the Henrietta, by J. G. Bennett, Jr.
The latter has announced his determination
lo accompany bis vessel, while the other two
owners cross the ocean by steamer to await
the arrival of their yachts, which are to sail
from New York on tbe llth of December for
Cowes. Tbe first to arrive at the port of
destination Is to take the purse, containing
the snug little sum of %90,000.
Emigration to Texas.—It is stated that
about five hundred wagons crossed into Ar
kansas at Memphis, daring the month of
October last. At one ferry an average-ot
twenty negwiM a day crossed the river, and
tbe number was increasing daily. The
largest part of these emigrants were from
Northeastern Georgia, East Tennessee, North
ern Alabama and South Carolina. Almost
all these movers were bound for Northern
Texas, In search of a country favorable to
the production of grain and the raising of
stock.
Bennett "Victimized.—The New York
News states that the editors and reporters of
the New York Herald formed a conspiracy
against Bennett and robbed him of fifty thou
sand dollars. The income of the establish
ment is so heavy that tbe money was not
mimed for some time. An investigation is
now going on, and about thirty of the at
taches will be at once discharged.
New Florida Business Firm.—We take
pleasure in calling the attention of the public
to the advertisement of Messrs. Rnssell A
Ilatcly, in another column, who are just em
barking in the mercantile business, in all its
branches, at Jasper, Florida, which is situ
ated on the railroad known as the Florida
Connection. ;
Rapid Depopulation.—In foriy-lour coun
ties in Mississippi; in which a census has jnst
been taken, tbe tailing off in tbe negro popu
lation Bicce 1860 is 45,600, or more than 13
per cent- In tbe same counties tbe decrease
of white population is 6,799, or only about
2 per cent.
Gov. One, or South Carolina, on the
Howard AmknpkRNT:—“ Let ns preserve our
own self-respM&and the respect of out pos
terity, by refusing to be the mean instru
ments of our own shame.”
This noble sentiment, so tersely expressed,
tohefees a responsive chord in the heart of
every honorable Southern man.

A NEW AND GRAND EPOCH IN MED
ICINE.
I>B. Mauoiel is tho founder of a new Medical Sys
tem I The qusntitarians, whose vast Internal doses
enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the howela, must
give precedence to the man who restores health and
appetite, with from one to two of his extraordinary
Pills, aud cures the most virulent sores with a box
so of his wonderful and all healing Salve. These
two great specifics of the Doctor are fast snpersed
ug all the stereotyped nostrums of the day. Extra
ordinary cures by Magglei’s Piiln and Salve have
.penud the eyes of the public lo the Inofflcieucy of
