Junot Wrut, of Washington City, has bad a streak of lurk, recently, which illustrates how a mtn who owns a little real estate in or about a growing olty ia liable to wake np some morn ing end find himself wealthy. Soma years ago, tbe judge was compelled to take an undirided half of a tract of 00 acre* of land la the vtoln- Ityof Ohiosgs, for* debt.

Hnppreaalng the Slave Trade. There’s nothing like suppressing tbe slave trade. Tbe recent movements of the British Government, whereby this cruel traffic in Eiat era Africa has been pat down, btTe been her alded with ebonts and sccliims from all Christ cntlozn. Tha “horrors of the middle passage" are at length done away, and the philanthropic breathe more freely. Bat a low whisper comes from Africa. To be sold into alavery to mors civilized people was, after all, the Tery brat dis position awaiting Africin captives in war; and, In nino coses oat cf ten, doubtless, it eras a via! improvement on the savagery and sottiabnes* of native barbsrlsm at all times. To talk abont cruUtir.j a people, whose beads were always at the disposal of natiro chiefs, and were often taken off by scores for private amusement be fore breakf eet, h ea in i t some*.hi op ern ally j oeoie. Any chsnge was bound to be for tbo bolter. Tbe aemi'barbario master in Eastern Asia was an angel of light oompired with a brutal and murderous alavery to tba native chief. So we may be sura tbe sUvo-tnda, in Its worst estate, mneh more freqaently bettered than impaired the original condition of tbo native Africa!. Bat the** very attractive people hove many ways of disposing of their esptivej besides Bell ing them to tha Aslatio alive trader. They hold them in alavery at home, which is not only an Inconoelvnbly hard lot, but a vary nacortatn tenure, terminating most often in those deadly frock* of tbelr masters which cost a whole throat or a bead; and very freqaently in fur nishing baked meats for a festal table. Tko suppression of tbeslsvo trade in Eastern Africa, fob a time, at least, will therefore open tha mar- ket for cooked African* Instead cf BelliDg them alive and raw. Wo suppose tt can’t be helped. It will not do to interfere with internal policy and nodal niages of tboes interesting people, bnt no donbt many an Afriosn osptive has la mented a change which consigns him to the baking oven instead of the slave mirt. City License List. We reprint to day, npon tbe order of tbe olty government, tbe list of license payments wbiob appeared in tbe GonnoII proceedings published laat Sunday. Tax payers sometimes complain that injustice is done them in the assessment and collection of these license taxes—that they pay too mneh, while some escape altogether, or with an inadequate tax. Now tbs use of this publication Is to place tho entire matter before ell tbe tax-pay-rs—that every ono may sec what be pays and what bis neighbor pays— who pay, end wbo don't pay—if there be any who hove been omitted. Tbo oity government want to equalize taxation—to mako every man boar bla proper burden—no lees and no more. Now perhaps a more effloaoloas provision to se- onrs th!* ond cannot bo desired than a publi cation of lax lists, in order that every tax-payer mty aorntinize It and compare ipe assessments and oollections, and the whole intelligence of tho city bo brought to tha business of review ing and examining tbe tex payments. The city administration desire this to be done, and will tike It as a favor, In any one, to polDt ont omis alons or any cases of inadequate taxation, so that these faults may be oorrecied.

As yet tbe evil done is limited, and If we can have dry weather its progress will, we think, b« stayed; bnt these constant showers are cot favorable, and give strength to tbe tears which are felt. It abonld be remembered, however, that neither tbe storms nor tbe oateroiltars are nniversal; they are in great part onnfioed to tbe lower half or twotbtrds of the Golf and Atlantlo States; in tbe balnnoe of the cotton belt the reports oon- tlnno satisfactory.

Onr Colnmbns, Montgomery and Selma telegram* nil state that considerable damage has been and being done by oMerpilUrs. At Savannah it ha* been warm, snliry and wet; and at Angusta tt baa rained on two days, bnt the weather now more favorable. Oar Charleston telegram says that they bad rain on more than bait tbe days of the week, bnt a* tbo week close* there has been a favorable change; the oaterpillars are said to have damaged considerably the Sea Island cotton.

Tbe thermometer has averaged S2 at Seims, 85 at Montgomery, 79 at Maoon, S3 at Mobile, S3 at Columbus, and SO Savannah.
