Tu Courier Journal, notieing tha oomplaint of a Western journal that the expiration of the franking privilege will defrive tbe poor fmadman of Ibe Booth of the only means by wblob they oonld obtain valuable political docu ments free of oost, says: “That la a deplorable deprivation indeed.

Tax New Toex Commcux. ass Fixi.cm. CnomcLm.—Ws notice in another place in this edition a long article copied from some unknown source, assaulting the New Tork Commercial and Financial Chronicle for unfairness in re spect to tbe ootton orop—charging that paper to bo ran In the interest of tho Bears, and with tha purpose of depressing tha prioe of ootton. There la not a word or thought of that article true. The Chronicle holds the scales with the Impartiality of a judge, and with a great deal of aagaeity and sound judgment Into the bargain. Tha Ghroniole ia not often wrong, and where it has erred, has erred with reason. We like that paper vary mneh, and commend It to tbe good opinion and general confidence of tha ootton fraternity. If it talks about a pretty silid ootton crop this year, yon may rest a-cured that it has t for doing ao. The Virginia Democratic Mate Con Tendon To nominate candidates for B ats tffljers, meets to-morrow at Richmond. It will be tbe largest convention ever bold by the party that State, and will, without doubt, came tbe next Governor of tbe “Old Dominion." The names of General Jsmea L. Kemper, Colonel R E Wilbers and Hon. John Goode, of Nor folk, are moat prominent for that effloe, but even possibly a naw man will be taken np. Whoever ia nominated will pretty sorely be elected, for tba people are folly aroused to tbe vital importance of holding tbeirState from tbe bands of tbe unclean crew of plunderers and fanatics, who elnlehlng at her treasury. Tbe iaana baa wisely been made on tbe line of gov eroment by I bo decency, respectability, and prop* rly of the State, or by tbs Ignoranse, toa bility and roguery of tbe oembined boats of earpet-baggana, acsllawaga and oorn field bands. From one end of tbe State to tbe other tbe bugle has sounded, and tba true eons of tbe no ble old Commonwealth are mastering for a last charge upon tbe Radical beats. They will make a gallant fight and win a glorious victory. Tha election will not take plane until Xuvember, so there Is a long stretch ahead of them in which to folly develop tbeir strength. Bore About the Caterpillar.

Without each exertion tbe probability is. tbst th»cotton in Ibis section will be stripped by tbe 20 h inst This ia two weeks earlier than last year, and when we re member that ootton is two weeks later we ean form an Idea of bow disastroni tbs calamity will be.

A Wlrked Han’a Opinion of English and French Girls. Wattenoo, of Ibe Courier-Journal, who ia gallivanting abroad, must have bad a prolonged attack of dyspepsia while in England, judging from bia sneers and snarls at everything and everybody be saw In that country. Ha has crossed over to France, bat still his liver seems oat of fix, jadging from this extract from bis last letter: Tbe woman who has tbe boat (anted ankle in England, and yon might go evon higher atill without impairing tha perspective, assured me only a fortnight ago that Ihq French girls are singularly wanting In atatnerqne attractions, and pointed with pride to a clamp of British vsatate, each one of whom, she assured me, re- alised Hogarth’s line of beentveo perfectly that tbe tape that measured Powers’ Greek Slava or tbe Medici Vo one wonld serve them all as well. It may be ao. The English girls are a strapping set, beginning with the pick faced lady and going down to tba yellow-haired bar- lot. Bat when it oomes down to the matter of countenance their elaimi upon one’s admiration art exceedingly indirect Tbe girls of Paris, on tbe other hand, oonceai whatever deficiencies of figure they may hare inherited by eostnmes tha most tasteful and naive, looking ont at yoa in e sweet bewitching war as if they meant to have yon believe that if Paris is Heaven they ara its angels. The English girls, high or low, remind yon of the hay-field and the cow-lot. There is in them and abont them an offensive materialism redolent of the mould above tbe rose, «The French girls are ethereal- iced. They call np Ttslona of danoe sal Pro- veincil song, ef moonlight and banks of violets, and are redolent of tbe rose above the mould. An English girl will amiik before a looking- glass until Iks very quicksilver giggles and grows dim and come away a drab for all her finery. A Trench girl haa only to dap on a fig leaf and a bit of ribbon to appear dressed in tbe bight of the fashion. Forgive these familiari ties. It is Paris, and one must needs feel a little sinful. We fear that Mrs. Waiteraon does not keep aa sharp a lookout on this wieked man as tbe eight If she does, bow tbe deuce doss ha know ao mnob about that higher “perspective,” or bow tbe Frenoh girls look in tbeir fig leaf and ribbon bow toilettes 7 We are soandelixsd beyond measure at snob goings on. Antfqnify of Sian—Ketuarhablc Dlfp covers. It has of late been tbe belief of a large dass of mon of scienoe that tbe existenoe of the hu man race on tbe earth dates much farther back than was generally supposed, while the follow ers of Darsrin and Lubbock btjve claimed that tbe bnman race baa been in a constant slate of progression from barbarism and brutish anoas- try. Accounts were given of a bnman skeleton nneartbed by tbe qnarrymen in Neander valley, near tbe Dnsael, at Elbenfeldt, In Rhenish Prus sia. Tbe professors prononnoed It to be of great antiquity, and were of the opinion that tbe Neander man, whose bones possessed in general tbe same qualities wbieh oharsoterzs tbe tones of the mammoth found In neighboring dietriota, and eno'osed in the same diluvial loam, lived together with tbe mammoth and other exlinot animals of. the drift period. The •kali was the snbjeet of measurement and calculation of brain power. Its capaolty was found to be ahnnt rqnal to that of the aver age Polynesian and Hottentot, and while tbe opinion of geologists differed in regerd to minor points, all admitted tbe great antiquity of the skull and bores. A discovery ha. jnat been reported in Kmsas, which, if verified. Is far more remaik.bia than tbe above described. The Osage Mitalon (Kansas) Jonrnal says that a bnman ahnll wa. n-o. nlly found near that place imbedded in a .olid rook, which was broke open by blasting. Dr. J. O. Weirley. of Osago Mission, compared it with a modern aknli which bad in bis office, found that it resembled tbe latter in its general shape, Ibongb it was an inch and a quarter larger in its greatest diameter, and mneh better developed in soma other par ticular.. He says of tbe relic: It is that of the oraniem of the bnman spo ols*, of large lias. Imbedded in conglomerate rook of tbe tertiary class, and found several feet beneath tbe surface. Parts of the frontal, parietal and ooolpitai bones were carried away by explosion. The pieoe of rock bolding tbe remains weighs some forty or fifty pound-*, with many impressions of marine shells, and through it thsre runs e vein of quartz, or within tbs cranium cryatalized organio matter, and. by tbe aid of a microscope, presents a beautiful appearance.” If tbia be a fact, and it seems to bear tho im press of trnlb in the description, neither Lyell nor Qngh Miller, nor any of the rest of the sub- lerranean rxplorers report anything so strange. The Neatder man oomes the nearest to it, bat the Neanderthal bones were found in loam only two or three feet beneath the snrfaoe. This aknli was discovered in solid rook. If the Kan sas discovery be real, it is worthy of a thorongb ■cisntifio Investigation. A Splendid Itonqnet. Mrs. Heath delighted this office yesterday evening with a magnificent bocqnet of flowers In the collection were a superb Japan lily, of most gorgeous beauty, several splendid doable Japonioas, and some fine specimens of the wax- flnwer. The whole waa blended into one of the most beantifnl bouquet, we have seen this season. Tbe lady will please accept onr thanks for tbe present. They serve to lighten the loal of drudgery for e time at least, and made the world seem brighter than it was before. Letter from Sparta. Erasra, Angort 2, 1873.

A Vienna correspondent of the Cincinnati Gszstte writes as follows: We were shown a diamond necklace worth forty thousand pounds; also a single tiartt of diamonds—a mere ornament for a lady’s hair— worth one hundred and fifty thousand dollars gold. We were shown a pearl set. including necklace, earrings, braoelet, tnd pendant, worth one hundred thousand dollars in gold; also, a diamond necklace worth twenty thousand pounds. Tbia had a pendant drooping from it, :n which was set a ruby of the regutar pigeon blood color, and it waa rained at three thousand pounds alone. A beautiful necklace of pink pearls, with tbe central pearl as larga as a pigeon’s egg, waa valntd at only fourteen then- sand pounds. We were also shown a necklace of black pearls werth X10.000. W* were abown a vary rare bracelet in which waa act a precious Slone odied ‘The Cat’s Eye.” This stone, as its name indicate*, looks exactly like the eye of a cat, and whenever yon turn the eye looks after von. It is a very rare atone, found only in Irdia, and tbe stone and braoelet are worth twelve thousand pounds. Oat of over one hundred tieres of diamonds and other precious stones that we were abown bare, the cheapest one in the whole lot was fifty dollars in gold. The North Carolina Elections. On the 7th of August the people of North Oar olina will be called upon to vote for the eight new amendments to the State Constitution. Tbe Conservatives are warmly urged by their journals to vote for them, bnt fiar exists that apathy may allow them to be voted down by the negroes. These amendments wen passed in tbe Legislature by a vote of both parties. The first amendment provides for the repealing * the present constitutional provision by which the Legislature ia required to lory a tax to pay the public debt, which was fastened on North Carolina by ths Radical administration. If this amendment be a dopted the Legislature wonld decide npon what ia jnst and what is an ut Just debt. By the seoond amendment tbe danse in tbe constiintion, inserted by the Radioals, that the censes of. the State be taken 1857, and aftir that every other year ia stricken ont. This expensive law wss made to give employment to pets of “the party.” The third and fonrth amendments abolish two costly hnmbngs—the Code Commission and the useless effirs of Superintendent of Pablin Works. Tbe fifth amendment refers to tba University of Nor.h Carolina, which institntion now in a condition of material and moral rain, to which it b» been brought hy its hav ing been placed in tbe hands of knaves and fools, through Holden's machinations. Tbe amendment now.propoees that it be placed charge of the L*g sia'nre. Dr the sixth emend ment the three hundred dollars exemption of property from taxation applies to ell kinds. The seventh amendment prescribes that no Fedrral or S'ato ifinal shall be a member tbe Legislature, and the eighth and last deolares that the Legislature shall meet every two years inttead of every ;car, aa is »r present the law. The Heir to (lie Throne of Russia ■ud His Wife. - London Correspondence Boston Poet ] It la worth while to describe this Prince, as he appears to ns here daily in the London streets; for everything indicates that he will, if he lives, be one day a conspicuons historical character. If he tnrns ont a less stern and an- gnat despot than Nioholas, he is oartain to be more enterprising and energetio ruler than Ah x ander II. Tbe latter batos war and has little teste for mditery shows and feats; while bis heir is nothing if not aotively ambitions and by nature beligeront end aggressive. Ths Czaro. witch is. of madinm height, very slightly and athletleally bail', with a atra-ght, martial figure sod tbe-carriage of a bangh’y and conragoons soldier. He has tho trne R imtnnff cast of conntenanoe, that is. acquire oval, fail in flash, with round fall cbeek9. fall lips, a handsome, ronnd, determined chin, aborr, straight, olwti nste-looking nose, Isrge. s era dirk eyes, and rather lowerirg brow. His hair ts dark brown, ud is closely ont to the bead; and he wears la'Utr long, dark mustache, with .a grroefui military sweep at either end. He cinnot be oalled strikingly handsome, bnt he iB a yonng man who wonidle noticed for bis manly hear ing and expression anywhere. His creamy complexion is smooth and soft, and be has the appearance of having lived on tbe fat of the land. He is evidently of a lax- arious as well as active end enterprising temperament; in both reaoeoU being thor oughly nnlike hia imperial paps. In one thing, however, he resemblts the Cztr. axd, Indeed, this is s traditional trait of the Romanoff; he wears a babitnsl expresiion of haughty melan choly, which aeldom .melts into a smile, and al most never into hearty langhter. The Ethpe- rors Pant, N.cholaa and Alexander II, were all melancholy men; and Alexander I had a deep, underlying "adnesa under his cheery and bluff exterior. This has been accounted for by the faot that the Ozus, from their position, live in constant danger of aasassinstion, and never oan know from what sonroe or In what manner tho blow may oome. Certain it is that the present Czir is timid and is a victim to bypoohondria which is aooonnted for by some by bis habit of taking too maoh alcoholic stimulant, and by others an tbe result of a oocstent wearing feu of his life. Tbe Czirowitoh, on the eontrary, is a thoroughly brave man, but has probably got his melanoboly by inheritance. Different as ha is from the Czar in personal characteris tics, he oon'd scaroely do otherwise than dif fer from him in hia habits sod in his po litical views; and it is well understood that he has for some years assumed the rale, whiob may almost be said to be babitnsl to heirs to thrones, of. leading the opposition to the Court He sympathizes rather with his node Constantine than witb his father, and be- longs to the wari ka “Old Rnssia” party, instead of the interns! development party favored by tbe Czar. Ths German ixfinenees at the Russian Court are regarded by him with dislike and disfavor. He ia far from beipg friendly with his consins, tbe F,assisn prioors, and dnr ng the lata war was a frankly ontspoken partisan of France, while hia fa'ber wss well known to sympathize with the Germans. PriDOs Alexander, too, not only disapproved of, bnt vehemently protested against, the polioy of the emancipation of the serfs, though when that oocnrred he bad not reached manhood. In short, be is a type of tbe Gossaok antoorat pare and simple, with a sturdy dislike to reform and conatitnlionsiism snd pepniar rights and the ‘peaoefnl march of progress" and abandon ment of the Russian dot.tiny brqnoathed by Peter tbe Great to his snocessors. Had he been on tbe throne daring the past three years, events in Europe wonld certainly have taken a different tarn. France might have found an ally io Russia, and ere this Constantinople wonld perhaps nave become anbjeot to a Rus sian Governor; while in Central Asia, England might have been defied, Persia invaded and the Uneaten standard floating in the Persian Gulf. THE CZABZVXA. Accompanying the Grand Dnke Alexander is very fascinating little lady, who cannot, witb her p'easant, open, cheerful face, but win gol den opinions wherever abe goes. Tbe Frinoese Dsgmar, of Denmark, or ss she is now oalled, the Czirovna Marie Feodorovns, is at twenty six more girlish than womanly, and seems to have maintained the vivacious temperament of her family despito her rather grim husband. She striktcgly resemb’es her sis’.er, the Prin cess Alexandria, of Wales, thongh she is now for prettier, and has bright bine instead of soft brown eyea. Her faoe is one of ths most inno cent and aitractive possible: she does not in the least share her husband's haughtiness of manner, bnt her roguish eyeslook as if she were constant expeolion of a good froiio. She is said to have less character than the Prinoess of Wales, but the sisters sre evidently very fond of eaoh other, for they are inseparable. Dsg mar was first betrothed to tbe Grand Duke Nirholaa. the Czir'a eldest bod, who died at Nloein I8G5: and it is said that when he was dying he plaoed her hand in that of bis brother Alexander, with a test request that she shonld accept the latter when he himssif waa gone; request which, as is seen, was fulfilled. Bnt it ia said that the Frinoefs g»7e her heart to poor Nicholas, and that her prevailing senti ment toward her present hnsband is one rather awe and respect than affection. r.tiTT-w —In the notice of Professor Joseph Jones’ treatise upon yellow fever, published on last Sabbath, in the following paragraph the word former should be sabstRstid for latter : 4th.

From the New York Tribune. 1 We have before memiopedwith pleasure and approbation the elnb of yonng ladies in Boston which gives its winters to tbe weekly hearing of wisdom from the lips of poet* and (hilosophers. Pretty is the picture of all these fair disciples sitting at tbe feet of such a Gamaliel as Mr. Emerson, bnt we submit that a far prettier one is that whieh we now get of them in the kitohen. For there they are. Dropping books for bona, philosophy for the frying ptn, mete- physios for mntton, art for apple pie, they are on the high road to such aooompltehmeuts as tbe wildeet dreams of the most nnmitigated old bachelor could not hive foretold. Every week each gentle member of the elnb contributes something to a feast, breakfast, dinner or sup per given at the house of one of them. Many and merry are the rivalries in the preparation of that ambrosial food. So successful have been tbe efforts of these charming amateur cooks that one of them is abont to gather and publish tne recipes embodying the most de licious results of their experiments.

Ladies are forbidden to step forth within the precincts of Hr. John Morrissey's great and elegant gambling house. This veto was put upon the ladies by the l'oung Men's Christian Association, for the purpose of Baring the ladies and mining the men; or, as wonld appear most dearly in sensible minds, for the purpose of raining both, for how are women to be saved if men go to deslrnotion ? And mneh more cer. tain ia the faot that shutting the women ont from any place where men congregate is the best mesne in the world to abandon it to donbtfnl fat*. A lady, however, went into John Morris sey’s house ths other day, and looked it over. 8be was aooompanied by a highly agreeable and intelligent Southern gentleman, to whom she is greatly indebted for a minute explanation of tbs workings of this institntion, its follies and failings.
