After this heavy demonstration we are not surprised to see that the Gazette advertises the preaohing of the “World's Funeral Sermon” on tbo follow ing Snnday, by Kev. Pastor O. Woodjaid. We were thinking things were abont ready to “gin soil" In Owego. Verso Italians are selling in this city oheap. Fifty dollars for five yesrs' service is enough to tempt purchasers everywhere.

It Is not a practice dictated by eentiment or affection or carnal appetite. Tn How. a. Qovx says that If this inres out a good ootton crop year, it will be the first time la forty-one ootton crops that a wet year ever male a good crop. If the oaterpillar falls to take this orop he will neglect his badness and prove an axoeptlon to tha whole insect family. Every kind of insect has ran riot this year. Hardly a peach or an apple—a pear or a plnm has been free of worms, and the worms have eves taken the aoorns on the forest oaks, so that most of the mast has fallen In an Immature con dition. The oorn crap is extraordinary—heav • lar, he thinkr, than has ever been prodnoed in Georgia—certainly far heavier than any orop ainae the war. Bat whatever cottoa is gathered has yet to be produced. Favorable condition!" hereafter may bring a fair orop; bat, if «o, it will be the first one ever grown In a wet year. That mnoh we gathered in a conversation with the late M.

The “ f ichborne Claimant.*’ This la the last name that has been fitted to Beast Batter in oonnection with his raid npon the gubernatorial chair of Maaaaohnaette by his Bsdloal opponents In that State, and ex.Attor ney General Hoar has tha honor of being author. Butler's en.m'es think it very nett and ap propriate. It may be all that, hot certainly does cot lie in Mr. Hoar’s month or the menth cl soy other AtaaaachnaeUs Badieal to apply It to Batler. Of all the men in that party he beet represents its principles, character and policy. If he la an imposter the Hadioal party baa given him the power and proofs neoeeaary to go Into canrt and make a contest. He has the support of the Adminiatrailna and all its hirelings in Massachusetts, and Mr. Hoar may find himtelf turned out of coart when he attempts to show np the pretended Sir Hager. It seems to that this Sir Hager h-a a stronger case than the real heir to the name and estate of Badicalism In Massachusetts—if indeed there be one, Mr. IIoar and bis friends claim. Ha bears all the marks of identity, whether personal, mental or moral, and if be has changed so ranch that his early friends do not recognizs him, that easily aoconnled for by the life he haa led, and the oumpany he has kept sines his disappear ance in 18GO. He may not be Ibe reel Sir Hager, bat be certainly makes n marvellously correct personation of Mm, and Mr. Hoar may have yet to acknowledge hla identity. We hope so. anyway. Oae of the sweetest reverges the South oonld have, won’d be to se Bailer Governor of Massachusetts, and Mr. Hoer gal, the cream of Massachusetts respec tability, compelled to do him honor. In the olden time, that State prided itself, and with cause, npon the spotless character and pare breed of its dignitaries. It will indeed be goodly a'gbt io witness the triumph of such leper ea Batler, whoso whole career has been shack and a soacdtl to all the proprieties and tra ditlona of Massachusetts respectability. They were glad to ntilize his villainy In their scheme for tlje destruction of tbo Sonth, hnt now that be sake bis reward they are horrified. Wo en joy their disgust.

The New Fork Commercial and Financial Chronicle of last Saturday reports receipts of tbo week np to Friday night, 1st instant, at 12,255 bales, against 12.G18 balsa lest week, 13.883 bales the previous week, and 15,181 bales three weeks since, making the total receipts alnoe the first of September, 1872, 3,575.348 bales against 2,708.090 bales for the name period of 1871-72, showing an increase sinoe Septem ber 1, 1872, of 807,258 bales. Tho interior port roeeipts were 3,372 bale", against 475 last year—the shipments were 4,428 against 1,534, and the storks footed np 1,388 bales against 8,297 lost year. The Chroniole's table of visible supply shows 2 328,595 bales against 2,498,297 last year, and 185,100 the year before. This indicates a de crease in the ootton supply as reported last year am muting to 109,702 bales, and an increase on that of tho year before of 143,489 baleB. The Chronicle reports good growing weather throughout the week ending the 1st instant— frequent showers and high temperature. It had rained In New Orleans every day—it had been showery in Mobile—one day's rain at Selmi, in Montgomery it bad rained more than ha'f the days, showery three days in Colnmbns and Ha- con—five showers at Savannah—Charleston warm and dry—Nashville more wet than dry days, and In Memphis rain every day bnt two. Caterpillars were reported in every Gnlf State, they had done very HtU* injury nn far. The nse cf the oaterpillar daatrover—° onmr°''uA of Faria green and flour—had been attended with general snceess. The meronry averaged at Memphis 79, Savannah 82, Mobile 82, Selma Si, Maeon 81, Montgomery 8G, Colnmbns 83. The New York market during the week bad been more active at a decline of jb far all grades above ordinary. Grasshopper* In tho West. The State of Nebraska has jnst boen eaten ont of every green thing by the grasshoppers in the spans of two or three days, and on tha back of this performance wo read of a- hall storm In the neighborhood of Omaha, wherein the hail fell to the depth of two feet. The great clouds of grasshoppers which at not nnfreqnent intervals sweep over those far Western States, carrying niter devastation In their rapid progress, mast be altogether inoon- oeivakle to one who has not seen them. They obscure the snn and darken the horizon. All verdnre vanishes before them as Instantaneous ly as if touched by the wand of a malicious en chanter. They come and go like the blast of a hurricane, and the laws regulating their advent and fi'ght are alike unknown. Where the; oome from, and how and where they vanish, are both a mystery. Bnt it is a dreadful mis fortune, we should suppose, to cultivate orops In a eonn'ry where every leaf and stalk may dis appear any honr in the day. Dnngerona Counterfeit Gold Coin In Circulation. A Western press dispatch from Now York says counterfeit five dollar gold pieces are in circulation In that oity and Boston, so closely imitating the genuine as almost to defy detec tion. In weight and color, the counterfeit cor responds with the legal coin and is made of 813 thousandths gold alloyed with oopper; in trinsic valne 471 hundredths. The ontllnea of letters and eagle on the counterfeit aro not as sharp, square and angular as on the gennine. The Chief of the saoret ssrviee offers a reward of $50,000 for information leading to tho oap- tnre of the dies from which the spurious article was mode, and the arrest and oonviction of the parties guilty of making and petting it into cir culation. Counterfeit $20 gold pieoea are in clrcnlation, and efforts are making to trace them to suspected persona. A Ctannce to Secure Immigrants. Joseph Arch, the great leader of the English Agricultural laborers’ Union, avows his pur pose to come to Amerios this month, to see for himaalf whether tha country doe* not open a way of escape to tho English farm laborers, from penury and degradation. Arch wields s controlling personal influence over this large population, and his advice in the premises will be followed almost implicitly by them. What should hinder the Georgia landholders from ap pro icliicg him with a liberal proposition to fur nish lands to his inm'grenta and inch informa tion npon the resonrers of the State as would satisfy him that aa industrious farm laborer here can not oh\j cam a bountiful subsistence, bnt seoara a competency In a reaeonatle time? Sontttern Nccnrltlc*. Ujder this head the Herald of Saturday has the following cloudy paragraph In its money ar ticle: These were likewise doll, tha only transac tion at the Beard being Georgia sevens, which , old at 90. It is among the- probabilities of the future that a species of syndicate will be organ ized in New York, having its agencies radiating to every Slate in the Union, and every State m correspondence therewith, to the end not only that definite and oorrect information may be obtained, bat that pride, honor and possibilities may be atimnlated into action for the purpose cf securing the highest value to local securities now among the dost. • What does the wotd “possibilities'' mean in this conneetion ?

Beioham Orrxas to ConraottiiZ.—Salt Lake City. August 1—It is reported on good author- i y that t are# elders of the Mormon Church have v.sited A nn Etna Young to-day and attempted to effect a compromise between her and the Mermen prophet. They offered, her e boose and tot tn which she lived and $15,000. The hours and lot is veined at $20,000. Mrs. Young has not accepted the offer. Brigham Yonng went Sooth this morning. Joseph Yonng, hi* son, d*id*s tbs story. Caatlen to Flusters. One of tha largest sod meet intelligent plan ters in Doogberty ooonty, s resident cf B.bb, told the writer yeateidiy, that the too free nse of Paris Green was acting very Injuriously upon the ootton crop* in that regloo, cansing the leaves and yonng fruit to blast and wither. Ia the cases mentioned, it had been mixed with wheat floor and effectually destroyed tbs caterpillars, bnt aa stated, damaged the weed badly also. This may have resulted from nsing the poison in exeemire quantities, or want of thoroegh mixing. Oar informant farther says that the worm so far haa been very partial In its ravages, even in tha districts where they are reported to be most numerous. Plantations within several miles only of those visited by the insect, have so far, escaped en tirely. Tiers ia some reason to hope that this will oontinne to be ao daring the remainder of tha season. The writer has frequently seen the rack oot ton along the msrgics of awamps devoured, while other portions of the same field were spared, even is bad caterpillar years. That the Paris Green will deatroy the Insect la sufficiently proven; bnt the operation may eqnire to !>e repeated again the same season. The great desideratum it to learn how to com bine it with other substances, so aa to preserve ffiraoy, without harming the foliage of tho plant. This knowledge, constant experiment doubtless will soon supply. Until then, plant ers shonld nse the poison very cantionaly, or pro vide themselves with the preparations whioh are sold under a guaranty by chem'ata. The royalty e’aimed for the nse of Paris Green Is disputed by many of the most intelli gent farmers. Doubtless this question will be dell oitely settled by the eonrts. THE GEORGIA PRESS. A Free ions Souvenir. Oae of oar best citizens, a gnde mon hailing free bonnle sold Sootland,” has presented ns with a paper cotter made from wood grown at Abbottaford, the home of S’r Waiter Scott. Perhaps the noble 8ir Walter In Lis yonth haa disported amid the bonghs of this iden tioal tree, or paused when following the honnds beneath its gratefnl shelter. Whether this be so or not, however, it la impossible to lock npon each a relic without catching inspira tion from the scenes wbloh filled with exstaoy divine, the poet's heart, and gave birth to those charming productions whioh will survive the rise and fall of an hundred expires. There is an indivtdna'.Uy in the personal sketches and every dty life of this wonderful man which possess:* an indescribablo oharm. His lameness, genial temperament, abound ing wit, and large hearted benevolence, elioit a constant firw of sympatby which never deserts the reader, aa he ia borne along with the anther through the magioal delineations of the Lady of the Lake, or imbibes the true spirit of chivalry in Ivanhoe, Old Mortalily, and the Legend of Montreal. Aptly ia he styled the Wizard of the North, for seldom has been given mortal man tho weird power wbloh he wielded, and still wields, through his immortal works, npon the hearts of mankind. We shall prize most highly the tangible me morial alluded to, cf tbo home and career of this, one of the greatest of ancient or modern writers. One Swallow Dora not Hake a Som mer, Nor does a mognifioent stalk of a new and prolifio species of ootton, grown in a rioh gar. den—a crop. The troth of this apothegm was forcibly impressed npon ns when viewing s sample of the weed six feet high and orowded with bolls, whioh aotnally hnng in olnaters likfi grapes. This was reared by Mr. W. O. Sarin ton in nm epung garden, witn every appliance that manure and irrigation oonld afford. So loaded had it become with frnit, that the plant broke down of its own weight. While this splendid speolmen was undergoing examination, two Jones oonnty planters walked into the office, and exolaimed, per contra, that they had seen hundreds of sores of the staple that very morning which oonld not possibly yield a bale to ten acres. So mnoh for exceptional ootton on both sides. We suppose the juste milieu lot the whole crop would bo abont a bale to Jive acres. And even at that, we ehonld house a heavy orop. Tbe Vice .President Interviewed. The Boston Journal has aotnally had the en terprise to send m reporter way ont to Natiok on purpose to see the Vice President and bring back word of bla bcdily estate. Mr. Wilson was ont riding when tbe reporter arrived, bat presently returned, got down from the oarriage wilhont help, went straight to his bed room, and, while resting, underwent his interview. He was at work on his “Slave Power In Ameri- be aaid, when the stroke came. The mus cles affected were those in tbe right side of the face. He at once took medical advioe, was for bidden to read or write, and subjected to a treatment that has wrought a slow bnt unmis takable improvement. He sleeps well, enjoys meals and is assured by his doctor that he rcoovermg. His voioe isn’t qnite natural yet, bnt the mnscles of the forehead and ohsek are peroeptibly resuming their normil notion.

He does not contemplate any surgical operation, dangerous or otherwise; bnt he does feel confident that the beginning of the session will find him in his place in the Senate, restored to health and ready for business. "His neigh bors,” the reporter adds, “da not speak so hopefully."—Springjield Republican, Was this stroke meant as s warning to Wilson oease his labors npon s work that oan only serve to k9ep alive and intensify passions and hates that shonld be allowed to die ?

There are a good many Hepnbll- can voters scattered aronnd over the hilts and valleys ot the old commonwealth, who are not supporting that style of “regular nomination,’’ at present as much as they were. They have made np their minds that they won’t vote for Bsr jimin F. Batler, this year, “no how yon oaa fix it;” and they iton'L Thb Gab cr Jcoouwaut a Mtth.—Another cherished belief gone! We are now told, at a day which Is certainly ridicclocs'y late, that the car of Jcggernant, so far as the crashing ot volnntary victims is concerned, is a hum bog. Dr. Pringle writes to the London Times thst the deaths icflioted by the oar are entirely doe to accident, though the native priests have no sort of otjretion to such accidents, being ex ceedingly glad when they oocur. It takes a crowd of 1,300 or 1,500 devotees to drag tbe moostroos car, with its sixteen hoge spiked wheels, and oonfnsed and entangled in the four or five long ropes which they hold, many of these poor wretobee naturally fall and are crushed ont of life under Iboee great wheels. Since an English commissioner ordered nets te be fixed to the car for the proteotion of the peo ple the deaths have beoome fewer. For the sake of humanity, we ere glad to know that these bar barrel performaneea have not been volnntary..

Anrlher order has been re ceived in the oity tor a bill of three hundred thousand feet to be need in rebuilding the Gib son Honae, whioh was bnrned sometime ago.

From the Chicago Times.] Mr. Lincoln’s views of what was right in LoiuisUna were somewhat different from the views now held at Washington. The following letter, written by him in 1861, expressed his opinions : Executive Maxsxex, Washington,'* , 4 _ _ November 21,1804. J Dean Sib : Dr. Kennedy, bearer of this, has some apprehension that Federal tffiuers, not citizen!, or Louisians, may be set np as candid dries for Congreaa in that State. In my view there oonld be co possible otjsct in anohan election. We do not partlonUrly need mem bers ot Congress from there to enable ns io get along with legislation here. What we do want U the conolnsive esideooe that respeotable citi zens of Louisiana are willing to be members of Congress and to swear to support the Constitn- tion, and that other reseeotable citizens are will ing to vote for them and send them. To send a parcel of Northern men here aa reptecenta- tivea, elected, as wonld be understood (and per haps really ao), at tbs bayonet, wonld be dis- graoefnl and dangerous; and ware I a member of Congress here, I would vote against admit ting any aneh man to a feat.
