Tho Louisviile Journal, urging upon

and kindly disposition of the reconstruc- j
tion queeticm, founds his argument upon
the alleged fact that never delay and wir- |

this declaration of the Journals, ground

Safe Family Arrangement.—The
Alexandria Gazette publishes a large doc
umentary discloeeure of an admirable
family arr ngement upon the pabt of
Judge Underwood, of Virginia, by which
tie confiscated and his wife bought the
property. Nothing could be more com
plete.
Who* Can TellP
A great many of our papers are very'
earnestly advising planters to bold on
to cotton, as a reaction in prices must cer
tainly take place. We do not doubt the
motives and share with ardor iu the hopes
of these prophets; but it is due to truth to
mjmmt zz::‘
cotton. The fluctuations of the market,
although not so extensive this year as last,
have been very great, amounting iu range
to somewhere about twelve cents. Tin
pane is now, le*s tiie tax, in this market,
about twenty-six cents, which would be
highly remunerative, if we had met with
even very moderate good luck in the grow
ing.
Last winter, about this time, speculat
ing upon the probable effect of the cotton
tax, and commenting upon various tabular
estimates of cost and product, wherein the
prospective price of cotton this year was
set down at various figures ranging from
twelve to eighteen cents, we ventured the
opinion that the price of cotton this year,
tax included, would bp about thirt;/ cents.
That conjecture, at the time, was redicul
ed us exorbitant, and yet wc see that it
was not far wrong.
Two considerations uowoperatcto make
the price of cotton seem very l<mv first
t lie scantiness of tlie crop aud, second,
tlie fact that it has been up to thirty-eight
cents. Had the market opened at tweuty
eeven, we have no doubt a large part of
(he crop would have been disposed of be
fore this time ; hut as it is, thirty-seven
in now the standard of judgment and
opinion as to what the crop ought to
bring.
Now NTr. Dcßow, and all the editors
vith one consent bay hold on Prices
must reset again. '1 lie crop ib going to be
short of a million aud a half—the East In
dia supply will be more scanty than usual
—the manufacturers must buy, aud they
" ill be compelled to advaucetheir figures.
"\\ e say all these prognostications are not
of more account thau the wind. We
hope they will prove true. Indeed, if tee
had held >n to cotton at thirty and found
a sink on our hands to twenty-six, it
seems to us we would hold on still longer,
if we could, aud take the chances of mak
ing up the loss or increasing it; and it runb
in our mind they are about even.
It is true the crop is scanty, but it is al
so true that trade is seauty, and the gener
al temlency of the whole raugc of prices
is downward. The business of the whole
world is iu a reactionary condition, from
the extraordinary stimulus occasioned
by the sudden return of peace. Ware
houses everywhere are stuffed with good.-
and there is nobody buying. Manufacto
ries are accumulating large stocks and
lighting declining markets with the aid
of large capital, the result of previous
unprecedented gains. The whole busi
ness world, in fact, now presents but one
attitude, and it is that of a stand tip tight
betweeu capital and the irrepressible ten
deucy of affairs to a readjustment upon
the normal conditions of peace, plentv
aud cheapness. Now, on this state of af
fairs, pray who can tell whether short
cro s will win an exception for cotton, or
not.’ It is more than we dare to say, al
though If we had our will, we won and put
cotton up to fifty ceuts at least, with a
very active demand.
Anarchy in Mrs-ouri.—Nr. Louis Dec
11.—Governor Fletcher has issued a proc
lamation stating that a portion of tin

How a Man Freezes to Death.—M.
Touchet 1 itely read au iutereatiug paper
ou this subject before the French Academy
of Science, lhe author’s inferences areas
lollows: »
L That the first phenomenon produced
by cold i» a contraction of the capillary
vessels to such an extent that a glebule of
blood cauuot euter ; these vessels, there
fore remaiu completely empty.
2. The second phenomenou is au altera
tion of the blood globules, which amounts
to their complete disorganization.
3. Every animal completely frozen is ab
solutely dead, and no power can re-an
imate it.
4. When only a part is frozen, that part
is destroyed by gangrene.
5. If the part frozen Is not extensive,
and only a few disorganized rdoed globules
pass iuto circulation, the animal may re
i over.
6. But if, on the contrary, the frozen
part is of considerable extent, then the
mass of altered globules brought iuto the
circulation when the part is thawed, rapid
ly kills the animal.
7. For this reason a half frozen animal
may live a long time if maintained in the
condition, since the altered globules do
not get into the circulation ; but itexpirea
rapidly as 3oou as the frozen part i3 thaw
ed.
8. In all cases of congelation, death is
due to the alternation ofthoblood globules,
aud uot to any effect or the nervous sys
tem.
9. It results trom these facts that the less
rapidly the frozen part is thawed, the
more slowly the altered globules find their
way Into the circulation, and the greater
the chances of the recovery of thu animal.
The oil wells in South-Eastern Ken
tucky, which promised so fairly last fall

U. 8. DiitrwtCourt and Confederate
Money.
Some misapprehension exists as to the
tenor of the decision of Judge Busteed, last
week, in relation to Confederate issues as
a consideration for contracts made during
the war.
The fact* of the case before him, aud bis
dtcision, may bo stated as follows:
Tbe defendants, on a certain day during
tbe war, received from tbe plaintiff' a cer
tain amount of Confederate Treasury
notes, and in consideration thereof, execu
ted to tbe plaintiff a written instrument,
in substance as follows—
“Received of (the plaintiff) a specified
number of dollars for a specified number
of pounds of ginued cotton, this day sold
by m? to the plaintiff; aud I agree to keep
saidcotton for tbe plaintiff aud to deliver
it to him when called for, he runuiug all
risks, excepl only that lam to be liable
for anylejss resulting from my own negli
gence or malfeasance.”
There w«s never at any time any actual
of the cotton, by the defendant to
■the plaintiff.
The plaintiff contended that, although
there was no actual delivery, yet there was
a sufficient constructive delivery of the
cotton, toeutitie the plaintiff'to treat the
contract as an extended contract.
The Court decided iu the case before
it—
-Ist. That the consideration for the con
tract was illegal. In other words, that
Confederate Treasury notes was an illegal
consideration f. r a contract made during
the w ar.
2d, That whenever a party to such con
tract was forced to call on a United States
Court to give him any aid in carrying out
such contract or recovering its fruits, tbe
Cuuit COUlfl not give eudi aid.
3d. That the plaintiff in this case was
calling for such aid when he invoked the
doctrine of constructive delivery; for a
constructive delivery is a delivery made
out by the mere judgment of the law,upon
the special facte, in the absence of an act
ual delivery.
4th. That in the absence of an actual
and livery, the Court could not, by its mere
judgment, make out a delivery from the
terms or accompaniments of the contract
which was before it.
It will lie observed that the Court dtei-
ded nothing as to a contract which has
been completely executed in all respects
by tbe parties, although the consideration
for buch contract was Confederate Treas
ury notes. A contract 13 completely exe
cuted when all the terms of it have been
complied with by all the parties to it. and
the purchase money has been paid; and
there has been actual delivery under and
in accordance with the contract.— Moutg.

Mary Knights, of lopsham, Me

disease. She would drink a large pail of

Senator Wilson gave notice, last week,
that he would soon call up the bill for pro
hibiting militia organizations in the South
ern States, t.ud disbanding those already
in existence. The Constitution of the
United States says: “A well regulated
militia being necessary to the security of
a free State, the right of the people to keep
and bear arms shall not be infringed.”
An important argument will take place
in Washington City, on thelOtb, before the

the stock in Xatioual as well as State

liable to taxation. Eleven cases of New
