Commotion Among Laborers, Whether or bot the recent failure in our c’ty ha; anything to do with the present commotion among the colored people, it is a fact nevertheless- that many' of them appear to be unsettled in their places *or another year, and there is an abundant supply of labor, willing -to hire for another year. , The roads of the county are lined with wagons, moving people from one planta tion to another. We have never wit nessed so mack moving since *65 and *65. when everytliing wsi it an un settled condition.

Jl'lio, cold wavo from the North-west struck us about 11 o’clock yesterday, and by mid-day tlio whole face of the eaith was a solid mass of frozen slush. The scarcity ot local matter in this morning’s News and AnvEBri.-Ea is duo to the unprecedented severity of tho-weathor. The streets of Hie city were almost deserted all yesterday af ternoon and last night. The people would not go out infs the fierce, col J wind unless they were compelled tr. go, and when one was forced by cir cumstances to leave the fire, be made as little delay as possible in getting back to it. Nobody wort out doors to do anything that would have furnished material for a local Hem, and we wouldn't havo been there to bare made a not e of it if they had.

Oar j people cannot afford to lie without fuel ! in cold weather, nor can they spare ! time to search the town over for the uncertain’ wood wagon.
