In Ui(' Cincinnati Commercial, of the 27tn ult., a Republican paper, and, therefore, not likely to “misrepresent” its own party, we find a letter from Jackson, Mississippi, giving an account of certain operations of the “freed men’s friends” in that section. It will he seen from the extract given below, that certain offi cers ol negro regiments, being mustered out, have been making from S2O to S3O on each of their %<jiiliers in hiring them to the planters; and the extracts also open another chapter of the mysteries of cotton stealing. Still, we have no doubt,-the evidence of the parties guil ty of these ilieit transactions, concerning loy- ; alty at the South, would be greatly appreciated j by the Reconstruction Committee : -CALCULATION ON TUB DAHKEV’s MUSCLE, OK j “SAVE MB FROM MV FBIENS.” Seven regiments of United States colored in fantry are now being mustered out here. Hosts of planters and their agents are eager to hire Sambo to take up the shovel and the hoe, and go to work on the plantations as soon as he lays down the musket and the knapsack, re ceives his discharge, and pockets the last dol lar due him from Uncle Sam. There is quite a lively competition in securing his services.— Twenty-five and thirty dollars per month and/, unions ape offered. 1 Officers of these regiments frequently receive twenty or twenty-five dollars for every hand they secure. Some of them pocket in this way the snug little sum of SSOO or SI,OOO. There is no patriotism and less love in such transac tions. This final shave of the gullible African evinces considerable Yankee shrewdness and a great deal of selfishness. It seems quite proper to these gentlemen that the poor negro soldier should give his late officer a parting gift of twenty or thirty dollars as a memorial of re spect. So many ex-soldiers have had their “eyeteeth out” in this manner that those re maining unemployed are indisposed to enter into any contracts where officers are at ail con cerned. The men who pay the largest bonus for securing hands, generally pay the lowest wages, and make the hardest masters, and this idea is beginning to penetrate the darkey’* i head. SPECULATION ANII SUDDEN' WEALTH —SOME- BODY'S CORNS PINCHED. Tliis is akin to the cotton-stealing specula tions in which certain regiments were engaged on the Mobile and Ohio railroad. It can never tie told how many hundreds, and it may be thousands, of bales of cotton, belonging to the United States Government, and which it was the duty of these regiments to guard, were stolen by them and sold to citizens. Privates suddenly became rich, wore the finest suits of broadcloth, sported gold watches, and had thousands of dollars in greenbacks and United States bonds. How far these regiments were pervaded by this leaven of rascality, this mania for surreptitious gain, deponent saith not. Such discreditable, swindling operations deserve not only ventilation but investigation. If these charges are susceptible of palliation, let the ac cused vindicate themselves against the asper sions of countless defamers. We would.be glad, for the reputation of all concerned if such opprobrium were removed, and an honorable record established for all our great Uncle’s nuu tial sons. Very Good. The late Major General in the Federal army, says the Mobile Hegister, who writes the follow ing letter to the Governor of Mississippi, sets a I good example, it it should be generally fol- j lowed, “ Adams & Co.’s Express ” would do “a custom house business” in bringing home all the piano fortes, books, pictures, watches, jewelry and “ silver spoons” which were eloined in the process of crushing out the re bellion. We wonder if even “the beast” would not strain a point in his natural character and disgorge. We. would like to see the inventory i of his personal confiscations: Lancaster, Ohio, March 34, IStifi.

Cotton Picking by Machinery.—A cotton picking machine has been invented which it is said will do the work of twenty men, and dis 4ieiise with the labor of extra hands. The in ventor claims that it will gather cotton at dis tances ranging f rom six inches to six feet, that it will gather it as elcau as the most expert hand ; taking the cotton only from the bolls winch are fully ripe and well open, leaving the undeveloped pods uninjured, and not harming the plant. Os course, the difficulties infinitely exceed those attending the mowing and reaping ma chine. But these difficulties have been over come by the ingenuity of a New England man; and the most skillful experts of Massachusetts pronounce the invention a success. If this proves true, the machine will be more effect ual Ilian the cotton gin in stimulating the produc tion of the great staple. The commerce of the world will be once more revolutionized by the enormous increase of the cotton crop; and this timely invention will be of incalculable value, both to its proprietors and to the country. The model is now in this city, under the charge of Gen. Hunt, a Tennesseean; and it will be of fered to the capitalists of tliis vicinity. If it answers the expectations of those who have seen it, our manufacturers will be fortunate in securing the property of this great invention. [Boston Transcript. Ben. Butler at the Confessional.—Ben. Butler, in acknowledging the receipt of divers “ beautiful presents,” being the leaving of a fair recently held in Philadelphia under the super vision of the colored “ladies” of that town, and sent to him as a peculiar mark of esteem, talks about their being “rich and intrinsically valua ble,” and says that they “shall be laid up, witli other treasures,” for his posterity. Now, with out wishing to be considered meddlesome or curious, we would like to know (wherein Ben’s “other treasures” consist 5* Have they any ref erence, for instance, to spoons or bank notes! Let Butler make a Clean breast of it while he is about it, and enlighten the public a little upon this point. That is all.— New York World, fri-tUcchln Constitutionalist. » t w- j BY STOCKTON OO Latest News by Mail. r_ W ASiriNGTpN, April 9.—The galleries of the r House of Representatives are crowded to their r fullest capacity. Many persons are unable to : obtain seats. There are also many spectators on the floor. The great attraction is the Civil Rights bill, returned from the Senate to-day, i and which at a quarter past one was taken up t '.»y the House for action. j New York, April 9.—The Tribune's Wash , ington special says: Alexander 11. Stephens continues to receive many calls from those who ■ have been admirers of his course for the past i five years, and those holding high positions, who are now disposed to make a hero of him. He has become very much disheartened as to an early admission into the Senate, and says he shall go back on Wednesday. He has not the slightest doubt but that lie will yet have a seat ■ given him in the Senate. He estimates the com ing cotton crop of the South at three million bales. . . It is generally expected that the President j will in a few days release Jeff. Davis and Cle ment C. Clay on parole. There is no probabili ! ty of their ever being tried for their participa tion in the conspiracy by which tlie President j was murdered. It is not unlikely that Con ! gress will again call for the testimony that has i so far been kept secret, audits existence known lo but few persons. Judge Holt has expressed his opinion in writing that it was enough to convict them, and no one is more surprised at their not being tried than Judge Advocate Holt. A Washington special says six of the. Alex andria rioters have been convicted by a military commission, and sentenced to hard labor in Albany jail. John Menkin, for five years; Jno. Lawler, two years; Jno. Travem, Joseph Hors e »nd Gilbert Simpson, each six months. Oscar Meykin is not yet sentenced, as he is liable to trial for murder. When the criminals left Alexandria for Albany, the female sympa thizers, and others, met at the depot and cheer ed and waved their handkerchiefs as they left. As Gen. Banks has never submitted a report ! ot the battle of Cedar Mouhtain, Va., and the siege of Port Hudson, the Secretary of War has called him for said reports, which the General is at present engaged in preparing. Reports were received Saturday by the Com missioner of Customs from a revenue officer stationed between Ogdensburg and Rono’s Point, detailing the capture of several cargoes of smuggled goods, consisting mostly of liquors, and amounting in value to several thousand dollars. The Times' Washington special says : Adele ; gation from the Western Press Association are urging upon the Ways and Means Committee a reduction of the present duty on unsized paper from twenty per cent, to a duty not exceeding six per cent. The Treasury Department received, a day or j two ago, a statement from the bank Superin- j tendent of Albany, New York, showing the number and condition of the State banks in j existence in that State. It appears that there j are one hundred and four institutions issuing their own notes. The amount oi their circula tion up to January Ist, was $’.1,000,000. All the State banks, after the Ist July next, will have to pay ten per cent, on every dollar they pay out, whet her in their own notes or those of oilier banks. Before the present national bank ing system went into operation, the banks of the Stale of New York had a circulation of $20,000,000. The Commissioner of tin* General Land Office, having received a number of communications from soldiers and others who have served du ring the late war, announces in reply that there is no law granting land or bounty land war rants to soldiers or sailors engaged in the late war against the rebellion. The acts of the 3d of March, 1855, and 14th of March, 1850, apply only to persons who had served in the army anil navy prior to those dates. The homestead act of flic 31st of March, 1800, grants a homestead of one hundred and sixty acres to soldiers, sail j ors and citizens who reside thfreon a period of J live years, at a cost ofslOand the register’s and i receiver’s fees. Soldiers and sailors may file applications for a homestead while in the mili tary or naval service, and the period thereafter in which they may remain in service will be counted as a portion of the five years’ residence required. The Herald's Washington special says : Con siderable sensation was created Saturday in this city by the sudden death of a couple in a fiuuily of colored people with all tlit* symptoms of cholera. Investigation disclosed the facts that the habitation of the family was in an extremely filthy condition,‘and that others of its members were likely to suffer from that cause. 'l'lic Times' Washington special gives the statements of Major Walker, of the sth U. 8. Cavalry, regular army, respecting the political and social condition of South Carolina. The Major, who served will', disjjue'tjoji throng** the war, Has Just refillftifnTtoin that section of the country, and gives a most encouraging aecojunt of these matters. He says the freedmen every where are busily and peacefully at work, and there seemed to be no signs of idleness or dis content anywliere. Tlie only serious troubles in that State lately have resulted from the depredations and outrages of a guerrilla band J calling themselves regulators or reformers, j This band, about 100 strong, led by a notorious j ex-rebel officer, made it their chief business to j molest tin' freedmen, but by degress began to ! plunder blacks and whites indiscriminately, and j the latter manifested a willingness to aid in ex terminating them. As fast as captured they will be tried as outlaws, and, if convicted, executed. Buffalo, N. Y., April 9.—E. G. Ricker’s Bank of Exchange closed its doors this fore noon.

Central Cor- I responding Secretary of the Fenian Brother hood, denies that Mr. Doran Killian holds a cor respondence with Darcey McGee, and says that no man named Janies Ryan was ever employed at the headquarters.

New York, April 9.— The Herald's New Brunswick special says: The reply of the Gov ernment to the address of the Legislative Coun cil was communicated Saturday evening, just previous to the adjournment oi' Parliament. It endorses the .Confederation recommendations embodied in the address to the Queen. The docliment took the Government party in the lower house completely by surprise, and forces upon them the necessity of resigning, as their policy is anti-Confederation. Important action is expected in the House to-day. Botli parties are preparing for a severe contest. The Gov ernment, it is thought., M ill go out by Tuesday. There is great popular excitement, and much indignation is felt at the Governor’s course. — Tlie anti-Confederation party say that an at tempt to force tlie Confederation upon them, will be attended with most serious conse quences. An important crisis is approaching. A rupture is feared in tlie home Government, as represented by tlie Governor, if it persists in its present course to accomplish tlie Confedera tion New York, April 9.—Tlie steamer Atlantic reports that in the Straits of Dover, on the morning of the 25tli of March, she experienced the severest storm that lias swept over the coast for several years.

The Pope and the Prophets.— A. few days ago it was reported tliat Pius IN had prophesied tiat lie would have to leave Rome this year return next year, and die the following year. A correspondent in Rome thinks tlie Pope quite capable of making and uttering such a forecast. No Pope has ever completed the twenty-third year of his Pontificate, if Pius IX should live untij 1809 he would do so. But as no Pope has ever done so, he will not. Therefore lie must die in 1868. But lie lias always talked of fresh per secutions, and about his being compelled to leave koine once more. Again tlie Church must triumph. Therefore lie must return. There will be only time for all these necessities by leaving Rome tins year. Therefore, &c. [Correspondence of the Cincinnati Commercial. The Reconstruction Committee. I am sorry to observe a disposition on the part of the Reconstruction Committee to sup press, in the pretended publication of General Lee’s testimony, the most important portion of that distinguished officers examination. I violate no confidence in giving it, as follows : Q. What kind of shirts did you wear during the war? A: Calico, sometimes, and sometimes woolen. Q. You are married, are you not ? A. Yes, I am. * Q. Well state to the committee what kind of under-clothing your wife wore during the unholy strife. A. I was not aj home much of the time and can’t say. Q. What color was it ? A. J don’t know. Q. Wasn’t it gray ? A.. I never took notice. Q. Don’t you know that the Indies of the South formed a secret cabal for the wearing of gray jretticoats during the war ? A. I do not. Don’t you think they wore more gray than blue in the article of clothing to which we refer ? A. Ido not know. Never investigated that subject. Q. Is it true that the women of the South wear Jell'. Davis’s picture in their bosoms ? A. I never took notice. Should not be sur prised if some of them did. Q. Do you think a Freedman’s Bureau agent would be allowed to marry into a first family of Virginia ? A. If a young lady belonging to a first family were willing, I suppose he could. Q. How long will it be before pumpkin pies j become a favorite dish in the late rebellions ! districts ? A. Ido not know. Some people like them J now. Q. Is there not a great aversion to codfish, as ; a Yankee staple of diet ? A. 1 do not know that there is. Q. Do they like pork and beans in Virginia. A. Some people do. tj. Wlmt’s your opinion of the Fenians ? A. i have not given the subject much atten tion. (j. How are you on Schleswig-Holstein ? A. I have not made tip my mind on that sub ject either. Q. Which side do you sleep on? A. The right side, generally. Do Southern men generally continue to sleep in arms, notwithstanding the cessation of the rebellion ? A. Those who are married do, I believe. There are other parts of General Lee’s testi mony not yet published by the Committee on Reconstruction. I trust I have given enough to show, when contrasted with what has here tofore been given to the public, that the most significant portions of the examination—those bearing most directly on the great problem of j reconstruction, are wilfully suppressed. Mack. Testimony of the New York Times Cor respondent.—-Mr. Ben. C. Truman, corre spondent of the New York Times , was before the Reconstruction Committee to-day, and tes tified at length concerning the situation of af fairs in Texas, Florida and Louisiana. Mr. Truman has made an extended tour of eight months through the South since the war, and lias observed tilings closely. He testified that, tlic 4jco4>le of Texas and Florida particularly seem to have accepted the situation fairly, and that, although no exhibitions of what may be termed patiiotism were manifested, he saw no acts of unmitigated disloyalty during his trip, but on the contrary, the people almost every where expressed and evinced a desire and de termination to obey all laws, including those growing out of the late war. That lie conversed with two-thirds of the ex-rebel generals, and they all stated that in case of a foreign war, they would oiler their services to the United States Government. lie also testified that al i though there were thousands of people in Tex- I as wiio were in favor of negro suffrage, he be lieved it would be impracticable to give the colored people of that State the right of suff rage at the present. He did not" think the great masses of the people would be favorable to Senator Stewart’s resolution. He thought j j troops were necessary in Northern Texas to j protect loyal men, as large numbers of Quan- 1 troll's Shelby's and Duff’s commands, most of whom were Missourians, infested that neigh borhood. Otherwise, no troops were neces sai;y. Mr. Truman testified that lie passed through all the rieli counties of Florida and Texas, and ttie freedmen were all at work and doing well; that there was perfect'harmony ex isting between former master and slave; that be conversed with 1 110 delegates in the late, con vention and other leading men upon the Sub ject, and they all concurred in saying that the freedmen were doing first rate. lie said there could lie no mistake about the good treatment of the colored people. 011 the whole, he be lieved that the people of the South, wit h few exceptions, meant to he loyal and could be trusted. Horrible.— The Chicago Times is respon- i sible for what follows: Miss Clara Barton lias been before the Reconstruction Committee, and her testimony will leave no doubt in the mind of any Radical that the entire South is disloyal , and that suffrage, property, offices, everything, should be turned over exclusively to the ne groes. Nearly all her testimony is taken up with the case of a negro named Cato. Cato had a wife, and she had a baby, and all three lived with some mean white people in southwestern Georgia. The mean white people set Mrs. Cato to spinning; and because -Mrs. Cato only spun seven “knots” and a half, instead of eight, “knots,” this mean white people gave the color ed lady a tremendous trouncing. Thereupon Mr. Cato and Mrs. Cato and a bundle, (who ever saw a Southern negro on the move with out a bundle ?) took to the woods, and after much tribulation reached Miss Clara Barton, and related their sufferings. Moved to indigna tion by this harrowing recital, Miss Clara Bar ton got a neighboring Federal officer to send a ! force alter Cato’s baby, chickens and lied tixins. Tliis was done; the baby, chickens and lied lix ins were turned over to Mr. Cato and Mrs. Cato; j and the suffering couple were immediately sup | filled with rations and a residence and nothing j to do by the Frecdmen’s Bureau. Tliis is the substance of Miss Clara Barton’s 1 testimony, and which the New York Tribune i thinks of sufficient importance to give to the | I world in extenso. It is quite evident to any un- j 1 prejudiced mind, from the perusal of what'Miss j Barton swears was told her by a negro about ! liis wife and her baby and their (negro, wife, | baby and bundle’s) overseer, that the South ' : should not lie admitted to representation in Congress. There has evidently been no “change of heart” in the South ; the ficoplc there are “disloyal,” and the only remedy is “in Manhood Suffrage;” that is, in disfranchising all white men and en franchising the negroes.

Yoars of experience and a correspondence extending throughout all nationalities of the liahitahle globe, have turned theories into facts and established a basis from which we need not err. — We are not surprised at sucli facts ns tho following, although the persons who write them are. We know the persons and circumstances, hence feci at liberty to endorse their statements: “ New Bedford, Mass., Nov. 24,1583. Dear Sir : I have been afflicted many years with severe prostrating cramps in my limbs, cold feet and hands, and a general disordered system. Physicians and medicines failed to relieve me. While visiting some friends in New York who were using Plantation Bitters, they prevailed upon me to try them. I com menced with a small wine glassful alter dinner. Feel ing better by degrees, in a few days I was astonished to find the coldness and cramps had entirely left me, and I could sleep the night through, which I have not done for years. I feel like another being. My appe tite and strength have also greatly improved by the use of the Plantation Bitters. Respectfully, Judith Russel.” “ Reedsbury, Wis., Sept. IS, 1863. * * * “ I have been in the army hospital for fourteen months—speechless and nearly dead. At Alton, 111., they gave me a bottle of Plantation Bit ters. * * * Three bottles restored my speech and cured me. * * * C. A.

One little girl in particular, with paius in her Jjeaih loss of appetite and daily wasting consumption, on whom ill medical skill had been exhausted, has been entirely restored. We commenced with but a teaspoonful of Bitters a day. Her appetite and strength rapidly increased, and she is now well. Respectfully, Mrs. O. M.

DRAKE &•*., octal-6m [2l Park Raw, N. Y. ARTIFICIAL LIMBS. SOUTHERN LEG AND ARM CO., MADISON, GA. THE Artificial Legs and Arms (Uren’s Patent) manufactured by this Company, have met with ! the unqualified approval of the most skillful and dis tinguished Surgeons and men of science in France anil . England; and after the closest and most rigid exami- I nation in this country, a Commission was Issued by ' tlic Surgeon General of the United States, in his I “ Circular Order,” May 13th, 1865, to have them fur ! nished to each soldier who had lost a limb in the Fed i oral service. i THEY ARE CONSTRUCTED OF WILLOW, COVERED WITH RAW-HIDE, HIGHLY | ENAMELED, FLESH COLOR, IMPER VIOUS TO WATER AND UNAF FECTED BY HEAT. A Medium Size Ann weighs only 21 ounces, and a Ley from 4 to O pounds. Notwithstanding their lightness they are very dura | hie, requiring hut little expense to keep them in order, l and so simple in their construction that a common me , ehanic can make any necessary repairs in a few tnin ; utes, and so strong that it is impossible to split it with an axe or break it with reasonable force. We imitate nature to the life, and make the limit the shape of the corresponding leg or arm, and finish it as perfectly as possible. The natural motion very often is so perfect that in large number of cases it is impossible to tell which is tlie artificial from the sound limb. THE ARM is the wonder of the age and challenges the admiration of the world. A person whose stump is one or more inches in length and retains a healthy degree of force ami rigidity, can, with this arm, at will, Raise the Artificial Hand to liis Mouth, Forehead or even to the top or back of bis Head, Put on or take off liis Hat, Cany his Valise or Cloak, Use the Hoe, Axe or Plough Handles, Roll a Wheelbarrow, And by securing a knife, fork, pen, nail brush or other implement into the part of tlie hand prepared tor it, lie can Cut liis Food and Carry it to his Mouth, Write with Respectable Clearness, Wasli the Remaining Hand, | Play tlie Violin, Hoid the Reins in Driving, etc., etc. THE LEG is equally as useful and beautiful, and as perfect a piece ot mechanicism as the arm. Tlie ankle joint is so constructed as to give the natural motion with the assistance of the toe joints to the foot, wiileh being connected to tlie upper part of the leg by artificial cords running over pulleys, secures a proper lever power, the whole resting upon a huff base, making the step light, elastic, natural and easy. Persons wearing one of these legs Readily Walk Five Miles —Plough all day long, Do Carpenter or Cabinet Work, . Go Up and Down Stairs, with case, Mount and Dismount a Horse, And with practice Run, Jump and Dance, With two Artificial Legs Walk two miles Without Resting, Drive a Wagon—Make Salesmen or Expressmen, Telegraph Operators, Ac.

He understands his business perfect ly, and wears an artificial leg himself, of his own make, on which we have seen him dance; and we defy any one not acquainted with the fact to detect it. We have examined these artificial limbs, and have no hesi tancy in pronouncing them tlie best we ever saw.
