Confederate Money—
Our mind was carried baek * few
years, by tbs sight of two Confederate
Notes in the hands of a freedmen the
other day. He bad bought goods from
some house and received the money in
-change, but didn’t have sense enough to
-carry it back to the plaoe where ha had
received it.
Q ur Merchants should not cheat the
-poor ignorant blockheads, that dont
Ttnow one bill from another. It will
codoubtedly haves badcffcotand should
not bo practiced.
We are paioed to record tb*
sad aod fa-al accident that occurred on
the sth at Fort Games. We learn
from the Chattakoochee Mirror, that the
new bridge being built acroas the river,
a> this point became endangered from
the sudden rise in the river, in addition
to about thirty bauds employed, to work
on tbs bridge, a number of citiecns vol
unteered tbeir serviocs to assist in se
curing the bridge from drifiiog timber*
that were lodging against the structure
beneath. While th-y were engaged th •

of ninety feet carrying all the occupants
with it, killiag some ou ridht, moral

George D, Prentice saye: If there

reach, who, by #i>me whimsical hook
■or crot.k of heart or brain, has got on
the wrong wide of the line of battle—
particularly is he has been old Whig,
or Union man, and considers it a sort
of duty to go ugains' the Democrats
we entreat him to pause, and reflect
upon wn.it he is nbout to do. Why
should he go with the Democrats? All
the i-euea over which we used to fight
are dead. 1 he Democratic party itself
«* reorganized after a division which
eoinpletely destroyed and receated it.

Tue Cotton Crop and its Pnot-
PKCTB.— The New York correspondent
of the Augusta Constitutionalist gives
the following advice to cotton plund
ers :
It seems to be pretty well settled
that the cotton crop for 1867-8 will be
about 2,200,000 bttles, or alxiut 300,-
000 bales less than the estimates of
one year ago. It ie also estimated
now that, with a somewhat reduced
acreage, the crop for 1868 9 will never
theless, be fully 2,400 000 bales. I
hove to caution planters against the
repetition of the experience of lasi fall,
when the price was forced down to
15$ cents in this market, and the plan
ter deprived ol a lair return lor hi* la
bor and capital. 1 must repeat the
advice which I then gave, to delay
marketing the crop as long as possible
after the pi ice falls to 25 cents fur
Middling in this market. Ail that can
be got to market while we are above
that figure will be eo much clear gain
of strength lor struggle in supporting
the price after we full below 25 ceDts.
The crop of 2,400,000 bales is worth
25 cents in this market, and let plant
ers see to it that they are not again
jockeyed.
We are going to have cheaper food.
Not so cheap as in “old times'’ to be
sure, but much cheaper than in the
past two or three years. T hi* will
help the marketing of cutton goods
very much. Norths: n labor is to be
belter employed. That ie another cir
cumstance in favor of cotton. Egypt
has returned to growing wheat; she
w ill supply no cotton; therefore, let
American planters hold on anJ they
will get their price. At the same time
factors should act with the greatest
caution. There is danger of seri -us
disorders in the money market. There
is a disposition among bankin j houses
to strengthen themselves against pos
sible conling-ncies. There are those
who affect to snuff trouble in the
breeze. The possibility of a dose and
dispu ed Presidential election is creat
ing some alarm. Money considers
tions ul -ue have prevented a further
advance in gold.
The Prayer of the Widow.
Beside a grave knelt a young wid
ow, not long since, says the LoCrotse
Democrat in a quiet town in the State
of Pennsylvania By the foot of the
ti tle “home” where slept her Husband,
a ctitlri lay. innocent Hnd ignorant ol
i.s mother’s sorrow. Curiosity excited
us and we approached, to b ar her in
roken words, with hands clasped and
upheld, face upturned, and dishevell
ed hair, pray as follows. The first of
the prayer wo did not hear; the close
was this:
‘•And, Father in Heaven, I loved
him. He was all the world to me
He loved me—he bald my head so
cioee to his heart—he cared for me so
tenderly. But l let him go when h.s
country called, for it was to save his
country, they told m-\ And oh I my
Father in Heaven, how I watched and
waited for him—how I prayed for his
sale return. Bui Thy will was done,
and he was taken from me. And with
him went to save hi* country, iny br.lh
er. And he come home wounded,
and then be died, and left a mourner
like me. And she died broken heart
ed, and left me this little child to love
as my own—as my own was denied
me And, oh! Futhor in Heaven,
help me to keep this charge—tell me
how to care for it—show me how to
rear it, aDd make it good. And give
me—oh ! give in", Father in Heaven,
str ngth to labor for it; foi wo are all
poor and ah-ne and do one to cate for
us now Oh ! give me health—give
strength to work lor this dear one, for
if I, too, fad, who will care for the lit
tle one now ?”
And ia the air we saw over her the
spectre of her loved and lost, and this
is nhst he told her, or tried to :
“Ab, my po«r wife, pray on. Pray
to God, for none other in power will
bear your prayer. I was taken from
you—l lost an arm in battle—a leg in
the same—l suffered in hospital—l
died and left you a» the mercy of those
who fooled me. Yes 1 pray to God !
He wi 1 hear you; but those who mur
dered me—w ho are robbing you—who
hold a mortgage on that little one—
they will hear nothing unless it hn« the
chink and clink of gold The country
to them is nothing. The sufferings of
soldiers who fought while they stole,
is nothing to these. The agony of
those who mourn is nothing. All they
want is the gold. And for this, for
them, I died I And for them I left
you in pover'y 1 For them I gave my
life, and your heart! ’Twas to enrich
them and make a slave ol that little
one I died ! Yes, pray to God, for
none other in power will help you !”

< The s -mo enibu-da-in winch exists ia
the E ist. over ho n< niiottioa of Sey
mour »ud Blair is shown by tbs De
i moeracy of the ‘‘Far West/’ The
Stockton (Cal.) Gazette says:
“From every djou twain, valley and
gulch—fr.-rn every oity and every plain
in Calafomia—comes the cheering in
telligence that the D 'uiocraoy and the
conservatives are united aod jubilant
over the nominations and the plaifurtn
made by the Democratic Convention.—
The names of Seymour and Blair are
upon the tongue of every man who rev
eranoe free government and bates op
ptes ioD. The great mass of people from
whom the just powers of g vernwent
tre derived, see in the nominees of the
Democracy statesmanship aud lofty pa
triotism. Horatio Seymour glands to
day pre-eminently at the bead of living
American statesman. Since the days
of Webster, Clay, Calbonn, 8ila»,
Wright, and Stephen A. Douglas, he
U»- been without a peer in all these
qnalitica of the head and heart which
make up the roan of enlarged views aßd
patrio ie impulses. Bis private life ia
without spot or blemish ; his public
career is untarnished by any dishonora
ble act., such as characterize too many
of our public men of our dry.”
The above is from a Democrotic
source, but here is what tbe leading
radical organ, tbe San Francisco Bulle
tin, ssys of Ex-Gozernor Seymour :
“He (Governor Bejmour) is a man
of splendid presence, of magoetio man
ners, and absolute purity of character,
which traits, eombioed wi h his disinter
estedness as a partisan, give him great
popularity aud influence, and will make
him the most formidable compel tor of
Grant that could bare been nominated
from the great State of New Nork.—
Tbe objections to Seymour will be pure
ly political.’'
Tnx Dkvil to Pat in the Radical
Camp.— The Atlanta Conslitutiou says
a certain individual now in Atlanta,
than whom no one has played a more
prominent part in the negro Radicul
usurpation scheme, threatens 'o exp >se
the enormities of his party. He claims
to have it black an 1 white, that Gor
don bear Bullock 6 000 votes for Gov
ernor ; that he has sacrificed his honor
anJ self respect in the service of tbe
Radical party; that instead of being
rewarded according to his deserts, t>v
those whom he tilt' and to p iwer, he has
been given the cold shoulder and in
oontineutly shelved ; that he is deter
mined to s'and it no longer, and final
ly, that if the He cov does not do
it ‘‘right quick,” he intends to throw
such a bombshell into his pen as will
turn Lis horns tai wards.
