The jeet of last season is now admitted to be t ,<5,000,000 bales, of which more than two- ' j will be sent to Europe at an assured value rt jtwo hundred millions of dollars. There ° lately been a decline in the price of this but it is still about double the price it to the yea™ preceding the war, and the Btry is receiving greater aggregate returns it than were ever obtained at any previous »vd of out history. There is little doubt that i crop cf 'be current year will be still greater ithatoflast season, and though there may i further fill in prices, it will imply no dim- ion in the gross returns to the country. . ciportsof the past seven months have been ”tt, n»iog over a million and a half of bales, ''t than one-third greater than during the ...ending period of last year.

Whenever party interest is to bo sub served, whenever it is necessary in the language of the Senator from Nevada, to make a Repub lican State, whether the people of that State wish it to be a Republican State or not, then the newspapers of the yarty to which the Sena tor belongs are filled with most horrible ac counts of the bloody deeds and the terrible threatenings of this awful Ku-Klux Elian. “When the people of Tennessee meet at the polls, and two men, both Republicans, are can didates for the office of Governor, and one not supposed to be quite so radical in all respects as the other succeeds, the State needs to be re constructed, because then the Ku-Klux Klan break out afresh all over the State! And when you have reconstructed Georgia, and become apprehensive that under the operation of your own handiwork your objects as a party will not be so completely subserved as you anticipated, then up starts the bloody Ku-Ellux Klan to threaten all the loyal citizens of the State of Georgia, and especially those superlatively loyal and superlatively intelligent American citizens the negroes 1 Then it is that their rights are to be outraged ; then it is that this horrible white race are banding themselves in KuKlux Klaus to destroy every vestige of civil and con stitutional liberty in the State of Georgia ! “When you again reconstructed her, enter taining the apprehension that the State might not be in the future such a Republican State; not republican within the meaning of the Con stitution of the United States, but might not be, according to party name, so Republican as you desired, you summoned up, if not from the vas ty deep, from your own imaginations, this bloody Ku Klux Klan to desolate all Georgia. “And now, sir, when you are for a third time reconstructing Georgia, when you have proved yourselves on your own confession to be but poor artificers in the work of State-making, we have again the samo picture of the Ku Klux Klan! When one of those bills comes before Congress, if you notice it, if it is deferred for a month yon hear but little of the Ku Klux Klan; bnt a few days before it is to be called up, lo! and behold, wo hear of this terrible band of outlaws desolating Georgia, and mur dering peaceful, quiet citizens, especially those loyal citizens, the negroes!” Yesterday the Radicals had the debate all to themselves, if I may call Mr. Carpenter a Radi cal. Mr. Sumner led off with a long and la bored, and thoroughly characteristic harangue, which had been forwarded in printed slips to the Radical press two days before. Mr. Car penter, in reply, gave Sumner’s anti-Constitu- tional doctrines an over-hauling; and then took up Morton, whom he handled without gloves and without mercy. Mr. Carpenter’s remarks, which follow, show that if he sits on the Radi cal side of the Senate he has not forgotten, or ignored, the existence of the Constitution. “Mr. Carpenter. Mr. President, I entirely of Company of Massachusetts” to the amount 100 per cent,! Bat, then, Massachusetts rules the country, and but for her permission we miglit not be able to raise a flag of any kind, with the payment of any duty however extor tionate. We sometimes find good in unexpected places and persons. For example, Alpheus Al fonzo, or Alfonzo Alpheus Bradley, on whose “moral character” a jury is now sitting to as certain whether he may be admitted to practice in the Supreme Court of the United States with out detriment to its ermines, is said to be indus triously lobbying against Bullock amoDg those with whom he comes in contact TTi« exertions, I learn, are confined principally to the colored delegation from Georgia, who came here in the interest of Bullock. It will be a just retribu tion if, through the machinations of Alpheus or Alfonzo, or both or either, which his surname is Bradley, these delegations shonld be tamed against the carpet-bag Governor 'of Georgia. The negroes would show by striking at Georgia’s worst enemy that if their skins are black they have white hearts, while the ghastly pallor of Bollock’s evil face is accompanied by a heart blacker than the innermost nooks of the infer nal regions, and as full of evil.

Shall we Send Cott jn or Yarn to En< rope. Washington, March 25. Before the war the custom with planters in the South was to raise cotton, sell it for British gold, with which they bought slaves and more land, and raised a larger cotton crop each year. The war having abolished slavery, the profits of the cotton crop must seek other channels. The people of the Gulf States especially seem to be lieve that as Northern capitalists have seized the important railroad opportunities from each great centre of the South to another, the only profit able investment for their capital is the estab lishment of manufactures of cotton. In select ing the article fabric is excluded, but they say that the fins yarns can be manufactured there and shipped to Europe. The system of manu facture in England is entirely different'from that in America. Not only is spinning in Eng land a distinct business from weaving, but the same operator does not engage in both. The spinner makes and sells the yarn. He takes his order from the factor or merchant and puts up the yam in packages of different form and ap pearance, with a particular length of strand for each hank to suit the manufacturer in the coun try where the yam is to be woven. The lengths vary with the unit of measure and the length of the piece of measure and the length of the piece of woven goods to which the foreign weaver is accustomed. The texture and quality of the yam also differ for different consumers, and the points of peculiarity are embraced in the order. But all these yams differ from that made in America in the respect that our yams are hard twisted to produce the strong durable cloth we are accustomed to, and our manufacturers are not particular as to smoothness. The English make a soft even yarn, which weaves into a soft fabric taking dyes and printing well, but not so durable in wear. Weight of cotton is saved by their mode of spinning. The Southern people realize this distinction. The Americans are practical, and are not so wedded to their own ways that they will adopt no others. The con sumers of tho English yarns are the people of tho oldest nations in the world, devoted to old notions, fast fixed in peculiarities, and no dis crimination in price will induce them to encour age innovations upon the groove of custom. Tho Americans, then, must cater to the tastes of the old world in this regard. In order to do this they must adopt the fine peculiar machinery used in England. The cotton is grown in the Sonth, and excellent water power can be ob tained near most of the plantations. The idea of ntilizing the water power existing alongside the raw product is creating considerable inter est ; bnt, admonishedby the experience of those who have attempted to famish these yam3 for foreign markets by American machinery, no one will make the experiment unless he is en couraged in some way. Alabama comes forward and makes the first proposition. Representa tive C. W. Buckley is urging the Committee of Way3 and Means to report a special bill allow ing the free importation of the foreign machi nery used in making these yarns, for one year, in which time the resnlts of the test will be ap parent The planters of his district will at their own expense try it, only asking the government to put on the free fist for one year a class of machinery not made in this country, not now imported, and which taxed with import does not yield the government a penny of revenue. Tho average price of middling Orleans cotton at Liverpool in 1868 was 10|d; of East Indian, 8jd; of Egyptian, llid. Upland cotton and West Indian and Brazilian cotton quoted. It is difficult to get at the cost of the total importa tion of cotton to the English ; and as the value of tho home consnmed goods is not given, and the exports of other mannfactnrcs than yam are retHmed in yards, the added value to a given number of pounds of cotton cannot be calculated with accuracy. Bat it i3 generally conceded that in manufacturing fabrics the value of the weight of cotton used is increased between three and four times, The figures for yarn be ing given in pounds, wo see that in the first process of spinning, English labor and machine ry double the value of the cotton that England receives from us. The writer then offers an important table of. statistics, showing the amount of raw material exported from this country to England in 1868; also the total amount of cotton consnmed in that country anring that year, and the countries to which they were exported. Tho total value of these British cotton manufactures being .£123,066,843, while the value of the raw ma terial is but 4141,666,6GG. -The value produced by capital and labor daring the year being £81,430,177, or equal to §394-,936,358.45 in gold. See what a wonderful inducement. Says the writer: “Members of the committee argue that the scheme is impracticable. Very well. The proof is in the test If tho Southern or Northern cap italists are willing to try it, Congress shonld not allow the bigotry of exclusion by strict adhe rence to the high tariff theory to interfere with the attempt. As it will make no difference to the revenue of tho country whether it succeeds or fails, inasmuch as exdbntion of the tariff pre cludes the test, tho most zealous tariff advocate should waive his scruples in deference to the possible success of a trial whose successful issue would develop an industry that would be second to no mechanical means of equalizing ex changes."

In the same order, is most to he desired; therefore, a park extending from the end of the Central railroad bridge on this side of the river, along the present track of the road to the point where it is intersected by the Macon and Augusta road, and thence down this road to the point where it crosses the river, and thence up the river to the starting point, would meet this requirement. The area of ground lying within this boundary lino famishes the most beau tiful rite for a public park to be found near any city in the State of Georgia. Here the many hundreds of men and women, whose health demands their evening or Sunday stroll, would be able to free themselves in a few moments from crowded streets and not be obhged to jump on a railroad train every time they want to visit a breathing place. Here, too, the wealth and fashion of the city might take their afternoon airings, either on wheels or horse back, or spend an hour on nature’s carpeting of green, beneath the forest trees which there abound. Such a park as could bo made of this spot of ground, and at a small outlay would benefit the whole community, morally and financially, as the March.

In pursuance to adjournment, a large portion of the most substantial and influential citizens of Gwinnett, representing all parts of the coun ty, assembled again this day in the court house to resume the consideration of the contemplated road from Macon to Knoxville, Tennessee. _^The officers assumed their seats, and a number of speeches were made, showing the deep and abiding interest which all the citizens of Gwin- net, irrespective of party, are taking in the en terprise. After an interchange of ideas, with regard to the best manner of keeping the bail in motion, and of evincing the deep interest felt by onr citizens in the success of the movement, the following (resolution, offered by Captain T. M. Peeples, on motion, was unanimously adopted: Resolved, That we, the citizens of Gwinnett county, in convention assembled, in addition to guaranteeing the right of way through the en tire length of the county, do hereby pledge our selves to raise the sum of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars in subscriptions to construct a railroad from Macon to Knoxville, provided said road passes through the centre of the coanty and the town of Lawrenceville, and establishes a depot at or near the Court-house. The question of slicing up and disintegrating the county of Gwinnett having been mentioned, Dr. A. J. Shaffer, in a few well-timed and weighty remarks, showing the folly of such ac tion, and that a very large majority of the citi zens of the county (including many in the por tion desired to be cut off,) were violently op posed to such movements, offered the following resolution, which, on motion, was adopted with great unanimity: Resolved, That this meeting, feeling a deep interest in preserving the integrity of the coun ty of Gwinnett, do unanimously instruct onr Representatives and Senators in the Legislature to use all their influence in opposition to every effort made to divide or disintegrate the county or change its present county lines. On motion, the Secretary was instructed to send the proceedings of this meeting to the At lanta papers, and that the Macon and Covington papers be requested to copy. On motion, the Convention adjourned to meet again on the first Tuesday in May. B. D. Winn, Chairman. Marcus L. Gordon, Secretary. « wnat will.
