Written for The Newton Enterprise, by a negro of Baker county.] Tho Curse of Snn iJominjro. On the shores of Ran Domingo, Where the spicy breezes blow, Thro’ the emerald groves of orange Comes the cry of grief and woe. Wherefore, ia there grief and sorrow In this bright and favored land, That ye dumb as marbled statues, In the golden sunlight stand ? We have battled for onr freedom, And obtained it at great cost; But great evil from the Northward Threatens from the land of frost. See them, mighty iron monsters, Havering round our blissful shore! Threatening overy fated moment, On us to destruction pour. On onr wives and on our children, On our homes wo love so well. We are standing and expecting For to hear their final knell. Grant, the potentate of freedom, On us hath this misery hurled; By his conduct now proclaiming Infamy to all tho world. Come and listen to our story, Africans of every clime; Could wo e’er expect such treatment From this potentate sublime? ho ! Ms love of filthy lucre Hath o’croonie him at the last— Showing with whut paltry meanness Man, his name ciui over-cast. May tho woods deny him shelter, And the verdent oartli a homo! And tho dust a gravo refuse him. And his light fail from tho sun I And in hell Ms feet shall wander, And e'en heaven refuse her God ; Bo the ass receives her bridle, And tho fool roccives the rod. ' - sUisccUaucous» C'oiKli < ion of the Cot ton jfctai*- ket. Within the past two days the cotton market has rallied from the extraordina ry depression that has existed, and pri ces have taken a sharp upward turn. This improvement, though not unex pected, seemed ruther doubtful a short time since, there being not a few who looked for a very low range of prices during tho autumn. It is difficult to determine whether the present advance will be maintained, at tho moment, though it seems very probable that la ter in the season a mweh higher range for American cotton in the European markets will be witnessed. Liverpool will be slow to comprehend the change in the condition of the crop in the Southern States. The cll'ect of the brilliant prospects of July cumiot easily be eradicated, and from the tenor of late mail advices there is every reason to beliveve tho estimates had been gen erally advanced beyond what might bo considered reasonable figures, even under very favorable circumstances, When we read in the circulars of the most prominent, conservative, and best informed operators of the Liverpool market that the 4,000,000 bale estimate is losing advocates, it is not difficult to get the key to the market for the Inst thirty days. The truth is that Eng lishmen have been so fooled so often on crop estimates that they have adopt ed the rule to make liberal allowances on both sides, and to bo safe, always incline toward the ‘bears.’ The tele graphic receipts at the seaports are watched with care, and their indications are given much weight in the solution of the problem. Now it so happens this season that the shipments from the interior are exceedingly lurge, and therefore, at first view, would seem to indicate a large, yield. The very distasers that have short ened the crop, have made tho picking easy and of limited duration, and hence plauters have been enabled to send in theircrops more rapidly than the previ ous season. Wherever the worms stripped the leaves from the plants, all the bolls have immediately opened so that the first picking would be very large. The drouth has had a similar effect. How ever much plauters may be dissatisfied with the ruling prices, they are compell ed to ship to meet their engagements. The factor requires liberal consignments to cover the advance during the season The planter has no moral right to hold back his crop till he has made his sup porter comparatively easy. There can be very little holding ba«&, there fore, for the present, though it is not like ly plantations will be swept as clear as last year.— S. O. Picayune. A youthfully novice in smoking turn ed deadly pale and threw his cigar away. ‘Oh dear,’ he said ‘there’s something in that cigar that’s matin’ me sick.’ ‘I know wtiat it is,’ said his companion, pulling away.‘What ?’ ‘To bacco.’ ‘What shall we name our little boy V said a young wife to her husband. — ‘Call him Peter.’ Oh no, I never knew anybody named Peter that could earn his salr. ‘Well call him Salt Peter, then.’ FSIMMONSI regulator!
