Having exhausted Northern notabilities on these points, the interviewers have got down into Virginia and got hold cf two tough old ease, at tbe Montgomery White Sulphur Springs in tho persons of Ex Governor L,tehar and Admiral Semmes: Correspondent—Governor, have yon read the recent discussion* in tbe newspapers on Cwinr- ism. or a third term for Generel Grant 7 Governor—I have not; 1 have heard of it, rboogh. I do not pav mnnh attention nowa days to sneh matteis They interest me very littls. Correspondent—I* it year impression that General Grant will be eieoted for a third term 7 Governor—Certainly, if bs want* it. I have no donbt whatever of that now. Correspondent—What are yoar reasons far thinking so 7 Governor—Mr reason* nro very few. Grant ha* tbe power, and if ho chooses to exeroise it he ean very easily have himself eieoted; and. besides, tbo ltepnblioan party of the North in tend to ran the government and keep the spoils among themselves, and (HUNT SUITS Timrt PUBPOSZS well a* any other man they oonld pick perhaps n great deal batter. At least, they have tried him, and so far be has anooeeded in pleasing tho leader* of tbe party by whom h,!s anrronndcd admirably. I do not think they wonld risk nominating anybody else. Correspondent—Arsnming, then, that Grant will be elooted to a third term, do yon regard that aa an approaoli to Cteiarism or empire 7 Governor—I da, unquestionably. The Gov ernmant, aa it i, now administered, la moving rapidly in that direction, and the eieotion of Grant to n third term will bs a stride that bnt too plainly IXUtOlTZ* TTT* TtOAD Tl ZOIPIHZ Correspondent—Do yon think tbe poople of the North wonld submit to be aoeiaily deprived ‘ their liberties 7 Governor—Ob, yes. They have looked so calmly and quietly on while ntnroation and tyranny have been heaped and piled on tbe Sontbera people that they have intuitively bo. eome innrod to despotism, and were tbe yoke an American Cm tar fastened npon them to- marrow they wonld submit with all the grace and eat, of tbs must abjeet and willing slaves. Correspondent—Bnt Governor, they can scarcely be ao insensible to and forgetfal of tbeir past traditions, of tbe glorlncs liberties aehieved by their forefather, and of that inde pendence whiob Is the boast of every American to allow all to pass away without striking a blow? Governor—Th»t is all vary well; bnt this march toward, empire has began so well, it has crept along so inaidlonriy, mcDaele after raan- aolo bas bean ao well and scenrely fastened on, the dearest and cherished Eisirrt or the st item b*ve been ao willingly surrendered, and barrier after barrier to impcriallrm has yielded so ess- that tbo ennonneement of an empire wonld only a simple matter of surprise among tbe Northern people. As to resistance to the fed eral government, if Grant sesames the role of r - nr. Dictat-r. or Emperor, the Yankees wonl! never dream of IL Correspondent—Do yon think then (hat Grant aspires to Cniarism or at least to a third term 7 ■ Governor— I no WITHOUT DOUBT, els, why. in the face of all this newspaper di-enssion, has he not bad tbe manliness to oome ont and s*y to the Americ in people; I will not a cutdidate nnder any consideration for the Presidency after tbe expiration of my present term. If hewonld do tbat then the peoplewonld hive reason to believe in bl* p*trioti-m, hnt as the matter stand, now he show, by his silence that be bas no reepeet or regard for the prece dent set by Washington snd established as a law almost by its strict observance by all of ills suc cessors. Unquestionably Grant wanta to be eieoted to a third term, if possible, to be em peror. Correspondent—What action would the South ern people take in such a case 7 Governor—None, sir; no action whatever. naTing no arm, nor mean, of procuring them they could not resist a, became free born Amer- ein*. At the close of the war the North took particular care to deprivo ns of all the arm, we bad. and they have taken particular care to keep rta tn that condition ever siecc. We are help less. We oonid do nothing. Correspondent—It bas beenraid by some that the Sontb might be rather benefited by the change to an empire, and that they wonld wel- ootre such a change. What 1, yonr cpinion ss to that ? Governor—We do not raven aw Samoa. We want a pure Republican Government. We do not want to live nnder tyranny in any shape. It i* b*d enough a, it is, God know*, without cutting n* under an im;'erial government; for Grant would be as much controlled then, apd more so. than be i, now. He diesnot nowri*e to tho dignity or th, just administration of the Chief M*giatraev of a repnb’ts, and could he be ipeered to wield tbe sceptre of imperialism with ixy nrcszz tr ntraaTTaiirr. No sir, we want no empire or Caerar. We would not be benefited by it; we would be mure orpreesed than ever, and wo will reaiat, if not wi.h am*, with onr votes, not only th, threat ened C-oitrism, tjt ita forerunner, the third term- correspondent—How could th* patriotic feel ingot the ante-war period be best rostered in the South 7 Governor—Q ctn only be done by simple kinduea* on the p*rt of tbe Government. We mn*t not be rebuffed and insulted on all oees- s'.ona as we have been. We must be allowed run- participation in the Government. If the Government boa no respect for the peooie the people ean have no respect for tbe Govern ment, and in rush a government those is no oinbiiitr. We smut tube tret ore d to *U tha privileges and rights to whieh nnder tha Coc- atitntion we are eotitled, and whan tbt* is done, my word for it, there will ba aa strong and pa triotic a feeling in the Sonth aa ever existed in the pelmirat daya of tbe Republic.

He i» of medium height, elecder but wiry build, and he walks with the slightest inclination of the head forward. Bnt the head and feature] are a study for an artist. The head is email, bnt well shaped, oovered by thin, iron-gray hair, ent somewhat in military style, bnt too long, straggling loosely over his temples, ears, shirt ooilsr, and parted at the back, though not the most artistic manner. The forehead is low snd deeply farrowed; the eyes gray and fiery, tbe noee tbe very slightest retrousse, nothing remarkable abont tbe mouth, chin small, bushy gray brows surmount the enrions eyes, and fierce looking mustache and imperial ornament tbe upper and lower lips. Fat all these on bumpy, weather-beaten faoa of a purplish hue, with cheeks a little sunken, and a dim idea o! Semmes’ physiognomy may be conceived. He wears a beaver high on the baek of his head, low oo ths forehead, exposing a small patch bald in the rear, a blaok frock coat, light ool ored vest and pants, shoe* or gaiters, and walking cans or nmbrelia completes bis attire— a model retired old salt, and a pictnre for ~ Na«t.

Semmes—Sir, I am notbirg bnt a plain citi zen, praeticing law In Alabama. I have noth, icg to say that could interest anybody politi caily. I have nothing to do with the polities o onr State, and I wish to have nothing to do with polities whatever. Correspondent—But, Admiral, it is not poli lies so much tbnt I wish to a*k you about, merely wished to asoertain your opinion as the destiny of the country, whether it Is going to remain e republic or will it be converted into an empire? Semmes—Tbat, sir, remains to bs seen, is verv uncertain what the destiny of the conn try will bo. Correspondent—Yon have, doubtless, seen the di*cn*<inn in the newspapers on the (-object of Cteraritm? Bemmrs—Yee, sir. I have. Correspondent—Do yon think General Grant will be eieoted to a third term 7 Semmes—I have no donbt that, if General Grant wishes it, be can be eieoted a third time, contrary as it is to the established precedents cf the eonntry. Corre*r>ondent—In that ev.n* do you believe it wonld b9 a march to empire ? Semmes—That I am enable to say. -It is, as I said before, uncertain, and lies hidden in the womb cf tbo fntnre, only to be decided by events. And as the Admiral said this he turned rather abruptly, ended tbe conversation and walked off, with hia hands behind his baek, his nmbrelia dangling from them and tbe patch of bald at tbe orown of bis hetd plainly visible nnder tbe leaf of his elevated chapeau.

The Losses of the «onth*—What Re* couBfrnetlon has C'ost. A correspondent of tbe New York Tribune, who has taken some pains to investigate the ac tual condition of tbe Southern Slates, contrib utes to that journal tho resu’t of his labors, which is comprised in nearly three columns of dose'.y printed matter. His exhibit is of the moot interesting character, and shows conclu sively the evil effects whieh have followed fhe so-called “reconstruction” of the Southern Slates nnder Radical rnlo. Ia I860 the v&lae of property in thirteen Southern States, not in olnd«ng Delaware, Maryland end Missouri, was $3 993 909 020. In 1870, deducting five hun dred dollars for each slave reported in I860, and reducing tbe valuation to the gold basis of the previous decade, the valuation was $2,762, 2G3 429. a less of 30 per cent. Tho States of Ma ryland, D *Iaware and Missouri, however, fared very differently. Darinc the ten years Minanuri giined nearly $600.000.000; Maryland $ 188,000,- and Delaware $33 000,000. Ths loss of prop erty in the thirteen Southern States was, ther* fore, twelve hundred and thirty millions in go’d, sum tvo-fhfid* os large ns the bonded debt of the United State*. Their entiro pronerty in I860, exclnsive of slaves, was $3,993 909,626, and tbeir loas Is thirty per cent, of that snm. Tho loss of slaves, added to that already men tioned, makes a total of three billions two hun dred and thirty millions! over one half of tbe entire property of tbe thirteen States. Mis souri and Maryland were afflicted by tbo waste and losses of war quite as much as the majority of the thirteen States, but Mi*souri bas giined 134 percent, since 16C0, and Alabama and Geor gia have each lost respectively 41 and 47 per cant. Arkansas and Missouri had about the same number of &laves, and vet Arkansas has lost 22 per cent, of ita wealth. The causes, therefore, that have led to this decay in the Southern States have coat tbe oonntry not only the twelve hundred millions absolutely lost, but the four thousand millions which they have not gained—a cum more than than twice as great as tbe whole national debt. Tho increaro in tbe value of Southern farms from 1850 to I860 was one thousand millions of dollars, but tbo de- cresse from 1860 to 1870 has been still greater, so that tho entire value of farms in the thirteen States is less than it was in 1850, twen‘y three years ago. And emancipation has net caused this startling deeny. Missouri had slaves end was the seat of as fierce a warns any of the other States, and yet in Misnouri the value of farms his increased one hundred and six*y millions! Ascertaining from census reports the vahn of farm lands and camber of acres, the average valno per acre, improved and unimproved, and reducing fhe values of 1870 to gold for com parison with tfco-'e of 1860. we may form some estimate of (he loss other than the num* ber of acres oocapied. Ih* los9 in the aver- ace valne per acre was in Virginia and West Virginia $2^39, or 20 per cent; in Kentucky, $1 71, or 11 per cent; in Texas. 83 cents, 22 per cent.; in Tennessee, $4 10, or 30 per oent.; in Florida, $2 53, or 40 per cent; in North Carolina. $2 84. or 47 per cent; in Geor gia. $2 06, or 46 per oent; in Arkansas, $5 32, or 56 per cent; in Alabama, $5 49, or GO per cent; in Mississippi, $7 01. or 58 per cents.; Loniaiaca, $13 29. or CO per cent., and in South Carolina, $5 63, or C6 per cent. Sack averages per acre, improved and unimproved, indicate &n enormom depreciation m the actual valno per acre of improved lands. Meanwhile, according to the same test, the average in Mis- sonri has risen $3 04 per acre, or nearly 30 per cent, in gold value. It may be supposed that the dec'ino in agri culture in these States is due only to the di minished prodnetion of the few great crops formerly raised mainly by slave labor. But statistics show a general decrease in products. We find, ocmpariDg the crops of I860 and 1870, not only a loss of 1.300,000 bales of cotton, but ' 2 000 000 pounds of wool; not only a loss of 170 000,000 pounds of tobacco, tut of 150.- 000,000 pound* of butter—one fourth of tbe production in 1860—570 000 pounds of cheese, not onlv a loss of 167.000.000 pounds of sugar and 8 000.000 gallons of molasses, put of 21,- 000,000 bushels of potatoes, nearly one half the crop of 1SG0 in those States; not only a loss of 113.000.000 pounds of rice, but of 8,« 000,000. bushels of wheat 500 000 bushels of rye, 110,000 tons of hay, 53,000 fon« cf hemp, and 1C9 000.000 bushels cf corn! In vtew of decrease in production so general and so startling, is it strange that Sontbera farms de preciate in vajue, that half tbe wealth of these great agricultural States has vanished, and that one thirteenth of the entire population has al ready fi»d from a region bo blessed by nature and so cursed by man ? An Anecdote or Xapelcon III# A gotaippy book, just published in London, entitled, “Court and Social Life in France, un der Napcleoa III.,” has an anecdote of the late emceror t which, if true, is very mnch to his credit. While Xapjleca waa in London, “wait ing his destiny,” he was watched by French diplomatic detectives. Three of these elevated gentlemen so far imposed upon the erde that * b invited them to dinner, asking some of his uglish friends to meet them.' After dinner the subject of horses came up, and the conver sation resulted in the purchase of a horse by one of the Frenchmen from an Eogli&h effloer. The hor»e was eent to the place digested, but the English gentleman did not gat his money. Prince N*pa!enn heard of the transaction a few days after, asd immediately sent to the Engl 7 sh in an a check for the price, saving that no Ea giiab gentlemtn should sell a horse at bit table aud not be paid for it ‘There were swindlers.” he said, 4 *in countries; bat, {f they raide their way into g^od society, the ho«ts which they deceived n.cst see that their other gae&ta d-d not suffer.'’ Tsz New York Tricot*, Q* thp 233 instant, states that the fall txado in dry goods has open ed with unusuil vig^r, and 3 is anticipated by •Oise of the more expenenerd merchants that tbe tra3e will be hrger than in tovaral years past.
