Hun Tnrea Stbikx Har.nr.n thin ran Stxix- m —Tbe Oerpentera’ strike in New York baa proved a failure, as bos tbe horseshoers’ strike, •ad tb* strike of tbo Itbode Island millers, and that of Ibe Boston coopers. The New York Balletin expresses tbo opinion that nearly all Ik* elrike* that were attempted this season have tlthar failed to obtain their object or have lost ■ore than they have gained by the operation; ao that the trades-unions, with few exceptions, are now weaker than they were on tbe 1st of April, while the avorago of wages, if anything, Is lower. The Balletin states that more men end women are now ont of employment in that ally then at any previous period of the same season for many years past. This la not a very encouraging picture.

Ass Mr* Monx Ctxam.T Than Women ?—The Herald, of Saturday, aaya that the two pnbllo hatha of Naw York were to bo opened the next day, and apropos of the subject, gtvos some sta tute* of last year's bathers that suggest the •here question. For tbo fire months of Jane, Ia1y> August, September and October, daring whieh the baths were open, 413,911 males and 159,023 female* availed themselves of theprivl- 1*J«.

T** Osor Feostict is Ecsorx.—In an artl- c *e reviewing the condition and prospeots of the growing crops in Europe, the New York Balletin aaya, that althongh the European grain eitaation may be regarded as generally favora- N* to American producers, yet It is far from warranting any speculative combination for an •dvana* on present rates. Wheat, at present quotation* in England, ia higher than the ev* •t«g* of a series of years, and the utmost Utxt eaema warranted ia a oontinnanoe of the wrrent rates.

Decorating and Dnnblng. Tbe Northern pipers are all crammed with tb* speeches and proceedings of “Deooration Day”—the 30th of May being set apart for the purpose of decorating Iha grave* of the Fed eral soldier* who perished in the late war, and declared a legal holiday by act of Congress. No Southern man thinks of offering tbe alighteat objection lo any honors iha Northern States choose to pay to the memory of their gallant soldiers who fell victims to that fratricidal strife; sod as there is no oonrt of arbitrament compe tent to tba case, it Is quits unavailing, if not idle, to protest against the slanders npon the Southern State* and people of wbioh these oer- emoniala are made the annual occasion. Some of the leading orations on Saturday tell na that the North fongbt for Liberty and the Sonth fongbt for Slavery. That avarice was tbe inspiration of tbe Sonth, while tbe North was animated by the holiest promptings of religion and patriotism. That the Northern States went.into the controversy, sustained by a goed conscience, by reason, humanity, reli gion, and love of country, while tbe Sonth fongbt against law and conscience, and emas culated by the absence of ccmsciona rectitude, and that was tbe reason wby she was whipped. Snob declarations as these, universally made all over tbe Northern States, ought perhaps, to evoke a quiet dissent from tbe whole Southern pres*—In deference to the troth of history and the honor of onr people. They are contradicted by Northern as well ss by Santbern contempo raneous records—by even tbetr own President’s messages delivered to Congress daring the war —for Mr. Linooln repeatedly conceded, and never dented, that tbe Santbern people were conscientious in their struggle to maintain the political and dvil institutions inherited from their ancestry. Bepestedly he allnded to the fact that both parties appealed for protection and anccor to tbe same God and with eqnal sin cerity. The Laws of Gravitation decided the contest Tbe dty of miracles is passed, and no special Providenoe intervened on behalf of these States to make one Santbern soldier eqasl to four or five Northern soldiers. That simple faot in phyBios was established by the war—bnt noth ing else; that is to say, no other or farther truth, ss a mere trntb. It ia still jast as apparent to the Southern people as it ever was—(in tbe light of mere ab- ■trsot trntb)—that their fathers gave to them free, sovereign and independent States—with the right to ohoose and obsnge their govern ment—that tbe eatenoe of free popnlar govern ment la the voluntary ooneent of the governed— that thoy had a right to self-protection, and that the combination of Northern States which inva ded onr soil and deprived ns of self-government and destroyed onr lives and property, perpetra ted acts of cruel, lawless and nnrigbteons dom ination. And no amonnt of the same kind of seotional domination will ever satisfy a single Intelligent mind to tbo contrary. Tbe Northern people may sell ns all into slavery, or transfer os to the Saltan of Turkey, and we ahonld still believe that we were entitled by Inheritance to all these rights of free, popular self-government In abort, tbe moral oonvictions of tbe South ern people remain the same and can never change; and It is soma oomfort to reflect that tbe whole esnae and origin of tbe war will be weighed with a gradually increasing degree of Impartiality with the lapse of time. Tbe dis astrous result of the war goea to Impeach onr prndenoe. Judgment and praettoal sagaolty. Bat the doctrinal ideas on whlob it arose mast be adjadged on a different basis. Meanwhile, in monmlng the rains of tbe past, we oonsole ourselves with the reflection that no great people were ever robbed of their liberties and property with leas oalimitons results, or wbo made a more gallant effort to save them, A Singular Death by Chloroform. On Thursday of laat week a death oocnrred at the oily hospital in St. Lonls, which presents some points of singular interest, not only to the medioal profession, bnt to tbe pnbllo at large. Four months slnoe Alfred Yalinoonrt, the de ceased, fell from a five story building and sns- tatned a fraolnre of both his upper.and lower jaw. Under medical treatment these frsotnres, or at least that of the npper jaw, soon healed, and he was discharged and went home to his family. On the day named above be retained to have tbe fraotnre of tbe lower jaw—which it seems wonld not heal—operated npon. Chloro form was administered, as tbe operation prom ised to be painful, bnt the patient had Inhaled only a very small quantity—not more than three drachms having been ponred npon the hand- kerohief—when he straightened ont bla limbs and ceased lo breathe. Every means of resus citation was nsed by the surgeons present, bnt without avail. The man was indubitably dead and refused to be resurrected. Nowoomes the singular part of the story. The coroner was oalied in and a post mortem examination deoi- ded npon whloh revealed the fact that the de ceased was a thoroughly aonnd man, all bis or gana being in an exceptionally healthy condi tion, fully verifying the pbyaioal examination made before the chloroform was administered. Every preoantion as to reemnbent attitude, loose clothing, freo respiration and thorengh ventillatlon of tbe room was taken beforehand; and these foots, added to the absence of any traoe of organic disease are causing mnch won der among the faonlty. Certainly ws have no reoolleotion of a similar case in the newspaper records of tbe oonntry. Last Week’s Cotton Figures. The New York Ohroniole reports rnoeipts for the seven days ending list Friday night, SOth ultimo, at 30,900 bales against 34,044 bale3 laat week, 41,031 bales the previous week and 43,- 770 bales three weeks since, making the total receipts ainoe the first of September, 1872, 3,410,937 bales against 2.C53.235 bales for the same period of 1871-72, showing an inecrase since September 1, 1872, of 757,752 bales. The rooelpts at the seven Interior ports were 5,237 bales against 2,333 the same week last year. Shipment* were 10,246 against 11,776, and stock on hand was 60,860 against 25,759 bales last year. The Chronicle'a table of Visible Supply foots np 2,566,563 bales against 2,420,722 last year— showing an increase of 144,846 bales. The Ohronicle's weather reports were not so favorable ss the week before. Too mnch rain was complained of; and rapidly developing grass. Tbs New York market was qaiet daring the week, and without change in quotations. The Apotheosis or a Free Loter. The New York Tribnne, of Saturday, prints a communication from Franklin, Maas., giving an account of the dedication cf a monnment to the memory of Albert D. Bicbardaon, and the delivery of a fulsome eulogy npon hi* life and character by ono Jnnias Henri Browne, a New York Bohemian of loose morals and still looser appetites. Bichardeon will be remembered as the man who stoic a Mrs. McFsrland from her hoaband by tbe advioe and assistance of a gang of free lovers who nsed to loaf abont the Tri bnne office, and whom he had eonoealed in the honse of one of the aforesaid gang, when he was very properly and effeetnally shot to death by tha outraged hoaband. Biohardson was a salacious creature who held strongly to the beastly doctrine that he had a right to enjoy tbe body of any woman who caught his eye and in spired his lost jast so long as he liked and then select another; and he was a tolerably fair war correspondent. This was Biohardson—all of him. And yet he has a monnment dedicated to his memory and - an oration pronounced in honor thereof. We are glad to think that such honors to snoh characters are not even possible in this eemi civtiixed disloyal aeotion. Oral of onr exchanges gives tbe following oo- nnndram: “ Wby is it that a young fellow and bis girl can ait in the parlor nntil after midnight without making noise enough for tbe old folks to bear them through the partition, bat oan’t ait in a pnbllo place five minutes without an- noying the whole house with their giggling and VERT LIBERAL INDEED I The tale* of the Serthcra rad Seatkara Presbyterlu Assemblies met Practicable at this Time. With a flourish of trumpet* and ranch gran diloquent eelf.laudation of their ao-ealled gene rosity, the Northern General Aasembly of tha Presbyterian Cbnrch condescends to approve of the reatoratlo'n by their Jacksonville brethren, of onr-half of the property they bid Men from tbe Southern cbnrch of that city. Nay, they even go so far as to say the pious thieves ought be reimbursed for their sacrifice, and forthwith make a large donation to them, and enjoin npon the ehurche* the dnty of raising the remainder. Bobin Hood’s “merrie men” of Sherwood forest sometimes did the same thing, when the elrcnmaianoes of their victims were peculiar, and they coaid gain eclat by the restitution The writer of this article has frequently visited Jacksonville slnoe the war, and from Judge Baker and others of the elders and members of the plundered church, has been placed in pos session of all tbe facts relating to tbe affair. The seizure of the cbnrch and property of the Confederates by the band of unscrupulous invaders who remained npon tbe soil after tbe cessation of hostilities, was nothing less than downright robbery. No pretext or shadow of justification can be t aligned for the deed. It was the old story that “might makes right,” while tbe oorrapt and pliant Badlcsl judiciary of tha Btate, ss in every other instance on rec ord in the entire Sonth, stood conveniently ready to ratify and confirm the act of spoliation. Even Dr. Sprole, the former pastor of the chnrcb, and on a previons occasion a member of tbe Northern Assembly, was forced to admit to that body that not fifty dMart had ever been contributed by tbe loyal people of the North to the ercotion of tbe church or manao in Jack sonville. Yet the whole oonoem was appropriated and the feeble bind of rained Southrons turned out of doors, and forced after many struggles and sacrifices, to erect with the assistance of their brethren, another modest tabernacle in whieh to worship tha God of their fathers. Ont npon each vandalism, and the sanctimonioos and Pharisaical action of the Baltimore Assembly. And just here the writer would say, that much as a union of the two Assemblies wonld be de sirable; yet the wsy is not yet open for such a consummation. Thera is still too mnch of red- hot loyalty (so-called) whloh is only another name for hatred of their Southren brethren. Tbe war of aggression, in and ont of tbe ohurob, upon the social and political rights of the Anglo Saxon portion of the people of this eeotion, continues to be waged with nnrelenting fierce ness both at the ballot-box and in tbe pnlpiL Even the graves of the gallant Confederate dead may not receive a stray flower noder penal ty of official and private malediotions from “the powers that be,” the Grand Army of tbe Repnb- lic, and tbe rank and file of those wbo woo with one hand and smite with the other. While ao muoh of aorimony still slumbers in the Northern bosom, why talk of nniting the two Assemblies? It wonld be an inoongrn- one and hollow union, prodnotive of no man ner of good. Better remain apart, and each pursue tbe even tenor of iU way, cultivating with increased assiduity that portion of tbe moral vineyard into which their lot has been cast, and awaiting with patience the final ex tinguishment of those smouldering fixes which time and charity and prayer alone can quench. True, onr Northern brethren say the “nnion” wonld render null and void all tbe action and ntteranoes of previons Assemblies. But it is well nnderatood that nevertheless they are tin- willing to expunge from the record that ac tion and those ntteranoes, which denominated Sonthern members trailon, and heaped ob loquy upon their heads. Self respect and con sistency should keep ns apart, while these in jurious expressions still remain as a part of the written history of the Assembly. But we have no desire to pnrsne this subject any farther. The area of tbe country is so im mense, and its interests so varied and diversi fied, that it may well, even under tbe most favor able auspices, beocme a question of grave con sideration, wbetber the existence of two Su preme Chnrcb Jadicatories wonld not beet con duce to the pesoe of Zion, and the advance ment of God's Kingdom. Certainly according to onr feeble apprehension, the present at least, is not a fitting time for the proposed onion and consolidation. A Legislative Carnival. The New York Legislalnre broke up last Saturday night, after a session of 142 days, “mid scenes of confusion and creatnre complaints,” a little beyond tbe ordinary ran of each matters. The World says the jobs were all done—the money made and pocketed—no more “selling ont” oonld be accomplisht d by a single member of the Honse, end thereupon they determined to have a good time, as they understood the term: They began by slyly blowing the tin horaB whieh they had anrreptitionaly bronght into the chamber, and from that they began to throw paper balls at each other from one side of tbe home to tbe other. The Speaker labored in vain to restore order, and threatened to call ont the name of any member who was detected in violating tbe rules of order. This aoted as a check only for a few minntes or so, and than the untamed reformers got worse than ever. The tin whistles were blowing in all parts of the house, large wads of paper saturated with water were thrown at members’ beads, and occasional. Iy one of the heavy document files, weighing 20 ponnds, wonld be seen flying across the obam ber, bringing np against the shoniderB of some unsuspecting person, fairly knocking him off his pins. A silk hat placed in a oonspicnons place on a desk wonld not last two minutes. At last the Speaker rapped more furiously than ever, and directed the Bsrgeant-at-Arms “to arrest any person found blowing a tin horn.” This only made the members laugh, and al though they eyed the offioers of the Honse a little more closely, they were soon joining in at a worse rate tb an ever. Finally the Speaker, in rapping on the desk so hard, broke bis gavel, the head of it flying off npon the floor. Daring all this time tbe Clerk was reading ont bills and passing them all by himself, not a single member voting on them, the Clerk simply marking every member ai voting in the affirmative. ^ Caterpillar In Alabama. From the snbjoined letter (says the Selma Times of Sunday) written by a gentleman well known in this community, and who is entirely reliable, it will be seen that the army worm is in the black lands west of ns. 'What the future may bring forth in regard to this pest, we, of course, are unable to say. Here is the letter: “ Buxxtcx, An*.. May 30,1873. “ CoL Sajfold: I eaw an old planter, and an intelligent man, to-day. He told me he had a good many army worms on his cotton. He knows them when ho sees them. They have done no harm thus far. They are on tbe bnahes in tbe woods. Corn is doing well. Cotton is suffering badly for work, and every farmer is hunting for extra labor. We need dry weather.” The Greensboro Beacon, 31st instant, says “Aaeonnts from the black lands of the cotton crop are rather disoonragteg. Tho cotton is not only represented as looking sickly, bnt the gen- nine caterpillar has been discovered on several plaees.” Gxstlxmxx who have been traveling through this county, says the Monigomery Advertiser of Sunday, aay that the cotton caterpillar has pnt in his appearanoe in very largo numbers. This is something very nnnsnal at this season of the rear, and if it turns out to be general there will be no cotton made this year, notwithstanding tbe increase of acreage and the extensive prep arations that have been made. Crop Prospect* In Dougherty. Editon Telegraph and iCtutnger-. The corn crop generally is looking very fine—best pros pect through this county we haTe had ainoe tbe war. Cotton is small and in many localities grassy, bnt good stands have been generally ob tained. The heavy rain now falling bids fair to decide the present straggle in favor of “Mr. Grass ” Oats are remarkably good and are now ready for the cradle. Do not think any larger area, fln this oounty,) has bean planted in oot- ton this year than last. Continue to lash those planters, Messrs. Editors, with nnspsring hand —who raise their oorn on warehonae paper and haul their crop* to market with alim, lean, morgaged moles. I fear though this will oon- tinne nntil onr lively sheriffs have administered on the estates of all aueb planters. W. Albany, Jnn« 3, 1973. >> BY TELEGRAPH. DAT DISPATCHES.

The murder of Mr. Walworth, by his son, oreated a profound sensation, owing to the dis tinguished social relations of the family. Tbe deceased was a son of the late Chancellor Wal worth, one of tbe most distinguished citizens of this State, and a man identified with, the great temperance Traot and Bible Societies. A brother of the deceased is a popnlar and elo quent mission preacher, of thirty-five years of 8ge. The family is largely identified with the most prominent interests in this State, in the jndi- ciary, m tbe ohnrch, in ednoation and in litera ture, and they have wide and influential con nections. Mr. Walworth was born in Albany, in 1830, and was, consequently, 43 years of age. He was edneated for the legal profession, and after being admitted to tbe bar assisted his father for a abort time In bis office at Albany; bnt tbo jrofession was distasteful and he soon turned fig attention to literatnre. He married some years ago, and the result of that nnion is two danghters, between twelve and fourteen years of age, and a son, by whom he lo3t bis life this morning. He has been separated from his wife for Borne years, and that lady is now keeping a seminary for yonng ladiea on the estate of the late Chancellor Walworth, at Saratoga Springs, where she is living in grand style. Mr. Walworth’s contribntlons to the litera tnre of the day ere embodied in five works, Hotspur, Lnller, Warwick, Delaplaine and Bev erly. Mr. W. arrived in the city Monday to attend the annnal enmmnniction of the Grand Lodge of Masons of tbo State of New York, whioh com mences this afternoon. Fiarticnlnra of the Walworth Homicide. Mr. Walworth, killed by his son this morning, was tbe son of Chanoeilor Walworth, and tbe well known author. He parted from his wife three years ago, since which time he has been residing in this city, the remainder of the fami ly living at Saratoga. His son, drank, came on from Saratoga ye3terday to shoot him. He called at his father’s boarding-honso last night, in Fourth avenue. Not finding him he left a note, asking him to call at the Stnrtevant Honse this morning and see him. The father called at the hotel where his son was stoppings ^and went np stairs. In abont fifteen or twenty minntes afteiwards several shots were heard coming from beyond the cham bermaids, who ran down stairs and informed the clerk, who immediately sent ont for an offi cer; bnt before he arrived Frank Walworth walked down stairs with his coat on his arm, and stated to the clerk that he had shot his father, and a-ked where the nearest police sta tion was. After receiving the desired informa tion, he went to the telegraph office, and sent off a dispatch to his uncle in Saratoga, telling him what he had done, and aaking him to break the newa as gently as possible to his mother be fore she should bear of it in any other way. He then proceeded to the 30:h police station, and walking np to the desk stated to the ser geant in charge that he had shot his father, who was then lying in the Stnrtevant Honse, and at the same time handing over his revolver, which proved to be one of Colt’s five-barreled. Dr. Marsh made an examination of the body and fonod there were four bullets—one in each breast, one in the right side of the face, the ball lodging in the brain, and the fonrth in the right arm, breaking it. Tbe Son’s Statement. Tbe following is tbe prisoner’s story, as told to the Coroner in answer to questions pnt to that gentleman: “I reside with mother in Saratoga, N. Y.; my father parted from her some years ago; my father is an author, and I have been studying law; I think m; father is abont forty-one years old, bnt don't know where he was born; my father has not lived with my mother slnoe we left here three years ago, bnt be has repeatedly sent ns threaten ing and insalting letters; it is only s short time since he threatened to Bhcot mother and myself; I shot him beoan'e of this. "Long ago I met him in a street in Saratoga. I then told him if he did not keep away from ns, or if he insulted my mother again, I wonld shoot him. I told him that there were bounds whioh I would not allow any man to go beyond with impunity, especially when my mother was being insulted. “I went to hia honse yesterday, and left a note for him to call on me, wbioh he did this morn ing- When he came in the room, I drew out a revolver and told him to promise ms that he wouldn't threaten or insult ns any more; which he promised. Bbortiy after, we began speak ing on family matted and he used, some very insulting language, and pnt bis band in his pocket as if to draw a pistol, when I shot him. Be then came towards me and I fired three other shots at him. When I fired the last shot at him, he had me by the collar. "I only regret this on aoconnt of the effect it will have on my family. I wonld like for Judge B irbonr to know this, as be was interested ln the case before.” The doctor did not find any pis'.ol in the pockets of the deceased, bnt fonnd a note left by bis son, in ids breast pocket. The following is a copy of tbe note: “Three o'clock—I want to try and settle some family matters. Call at the Steurtevast House after an hour or two. If I am not there I will leave word at the office.' F. fl. Walwobth." Coroner Young committed the murderer to the tombs nntil such time aa an inquest takes place. Capital ffotes.

The following extract from an article on “A New Atlantis,” in Lippincott for June, cannot fail to be recognized as a specimen of word- painting of remarkable vigor and beauty, and was written by a yonng man who, three years ago. had not a dolltr in the bank, and was cashier of an apple-pie stand in Philadelphia. Hear him: "Here it lies, basking at onr feet, tbe warm amethystine sea of tbe South. It does not boom and thnnder, as in the oonntry of the ‘oold gray stones.’ On tbe oontrary, saturating itself with sonny ease, thinning its bnlk over the shoal flat beach with a -accession of volap- tuons corvee, it spreads thence in distanoe with strands and belts of varied ooior, sway and awty, nntil blind with light it faints on a pro digiously far horizon.* SEW YORK AID BROOKLYN BRIDGE. Preparing for an Immovable Anchorage on tbe Brooklyn Side. The Son says two of the large bed or anchor plates ot oast iron for the Brooklyn bridge, weighing twenty Bix tons each, that are to be plaoed in position at an early date, 900 feet from the tower, have been suooessfally landed. Connected with these are two immense iron bars, which are to be nsed in attaohing the ca bles. The works on the New York side are progressing rapidly. The workmen are putting np every week two fall courses, or fire feet of stone, at whioh rate the tower will be completed some time this fall. Very few persons are aware of the extraordi nary care taken in proonring tbe stone. At the beginning of the work tbe engineer had min utely set down tbe exact Bize and number of each stone that wonld be wanted. A list was then printed, and copies were sent to every qnsrrv and stoneentter in Maine acd Vermont, and at the present time the engineer has the foil list acd almost name of every stone he needs. As soon as one course is finished, he writes to the persons who have the next course; the stone is shipped and landed at Red Back, there it is met by a competent receiver, who scrutinize it thoroughly, and ahonld it be what is wanted forwards it. Eaoh stone is number ed; and as the scow arrives tho foreman col lects the stones he requires in rotation; then they are hoisted by derrick to the tower. The tower on tbe Brooklyn side has reached tbe height of 160 feet. Gashing strangers. When yon meet on yonr travels a gashing stranger, fail of a bland acd generous oonfi dence, invest a full equivalent in politeness, if yon please, bnt no cash. The Montgomery Ad vertiser, says: A gentleman in this city who has bad some experience in railroading, and who is an able financier besides, visited New York, in com pany with the well known President of one of onr railroad companies where be was met by a well dressed gentleman who was delighted to see him and who bad a thousand questions to ask abont Charlie P , Gill O , Dr. G , Gen. H , Hon. Sam R——, Mr. O , and scores of other friends in Montgomery. Onr visiting friend was not able to locate tbe stranger, and inwardly enrsed the treacherous memory whioh failed to reoall his name. After a balf hour spent in conversation, daring which onr friend bad bardiy time to do more than answer his visitor’s numerous ques tions the latter pnlled ont a fine gold watoh acd starting suddenly exclaimed: "B'.oes me. I'm so delighted at having met an old friend that I oame near allowing a note go to protest, and I have barely time to reach tbe bank. Will yon ride with me aronnd to my office ? It is abont a mile d >wn Broadway and as I bave bnt fifteen minntes I must hurry!” “ Bnt yon haven’t time to go a mile and then make the bank in time for yonr bnsiness ” sug gested the other. “ That’s a fact ” answered tbe first “ and yet I bave cot enough money with mo to meet the note 1” What sum do yon require ?” Two hundred (j^liara; bnt I have a part of that snm with me. Oonld yon loan me the re mainder?” " I bave only forty dollars. Yon can have that if it will serve yonr turn!” "Thank yon; with that and what I may be able to borrow from another friend np tho street a few doors, I think I shall bo all right 1” "Onr friend handed over tbe forty dollars, and saw tbe “ confidence man ” no more for ever. He had been badly sold and had paid forty dollars for tbe privilege. Markets—Morning Report.
