CONSTITUTIONALIST ATTGUJtSTA. GhA^ SUNDAY MOSmfl, OPT. 2.1870 FIFTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. FOR CONGRESS. FOR TJIB SHORT TERM. GKN. R W. CARSWELL, Os Jefferson County. FOR THE LONG TERM. JUDGE W. M. REESE, Os Wilkes County. MR. ATTORNEY GENERAL. The New Era claims that the Election Bill is not unconstitutional, “ because it is approved by the Attorney General of Gen. Grant.” That's a poor reason. Gen. Grant usu ally makes his Attorney General decide as lie pleases, and not as the bill of rights pre scribes. The poor creature is subservi ent, and Akerman was no doubt chosen because of his facility in crawling at the feet of power. Besides, what a farce to quote the authority of a man who belongs to a party which exists outside of the Constitution,” by the admission of the late Thaddkus Stevens, and which boasts that if the Constitution happens to get in the way, “ so much the worse for the Constitu tion.” Chief Justice Brown deserves credit for his effort to save his party from supreme baseness; but the less said in justification of Grant’s Attorney General the better for his reputation as an honest politician or a lawyer in good repute. Meanwhile, what an awful jackass was that, individual at Washington village, in Wilkes county, who played fantastic tricks with the tail of Akerman’s mule. That so called “Ku Kiux outrage” may have been bad for the mule, but it was a god-send to Akerman. It brought him into prominence with the great Horse Doctor at the head of affairs, and, as a trump card in politics, beats Sumner’s backbone all hollow. What a load of re morse must that man carry who tortured the tall of Akbbman's mule ! Our New York Correspondence. New York, September 29,1870. The decline in cotton at this market yes terday to 16% for middling uplands, and 15% for low middling for December deliv ery is an important fact to Southern plant ers, and deserves just now more than pass ing consideration. There are several causes. In the first place the crop appears to have matured early, the season thus far very favorable for picking operations, and the crop has been hurried to market with such rapidity that increased estimates of the tota 1 yield begin already to be current, —one writer placing it as high as 3,800,000 bales. The unfortunate experience of Southern commission houses and bankers last Fall, when they were somewhat dispos ed to resent my caution againststarting the last crop out of the hands of planters at figures which could not be maintained, now induces extraordinary caution on their part,, and they have not, thus far, shown any disposition to check the decline, pre ferring to let the market take its own course, and find, with due celerity, a solid basis. Spinners have not been able to work up to their full capacity, in conse quence of the wide spread drought, which has dried up the mill streams. The war between France and Germany, aud the revolutionary republican movements in other countries of Europe, have been fatal to confidence in trade circles, and none seem to be willing to hold stocks of mer- chandize beyond pressing wants ; a policy r which, especially at its inception, is &I 'Mfty4-pro&fe4fgt to lower prices* hqwever ofl^rings on sale. Thera fore Manchester , decline. Agaiflkt fiVI twese adverse Influence, rfoth ing can be urged except that money is easy and the demand for goods is brisk in our markets. No wonder that the decline, of which I gave your readers a hint a fort night since, has been great and decided. But has not cotton about “ touched bot tom ?” I think it has. At least, 15 cents for low middling uplands in December is a reasonably safe flxure. I will give reasons for the faith that is in me. Gold must ad vance materially, aud at once—probably not less than ten points, or to about 1240125. The importations are enormous, and at the low prices at which our products are going forward the. balance will be largely against us, to be settled with gold ; thus,-besides a large export demand, the requirements to pay duties will be excessive. A portion of the new tariff goes into effect on Saturday. Against this event, goods have been piled up in bond to an enormous extent. They are needed, and they will be withdrawn after the Ist October, with extraordi nary celerity. Gold to pav duties is very scarce and in few hands. No considerable amouut can comd out of the Treasury till November Ist, and in the meantime an ad vance is inevitable. This of itself will check the decline in cotton, and by stimu lating the export, revive speculation, and produce no 1 nconsiderable reaction from the decline of the current week. The political campaign in this State assumes a most favorable aspect. There is no doubt of a complete Democratic triumph. Tammany Hall will wisely co-operate with the Republicans in preventing illegal voting, and the majority in this city will be somewhat curtailed thereby; but we shall carry the State without the aid of the great city. Every day I meet leading Republicans who declare that they will not submit to the domination of Jolinsonites which Grant has placed over them. a The Protestant Episcopal Convention Tor the diocese of New York (Bishop Potter’s) commenced its annual session in this city yesterday. The sermonizer selected for the occasion inveighed with great severity against Ritualism—demanding that his hearers should remember that they live and have their field of action in the United States and during the nineteenth century, and that both these circumstances rendered the efforts at ornate manner of worship un wise and destructive of all capacity for good. Complaints are being made of sickness, more particularly in the upper parts of the city, and the suburbs adjacent, in conse quence, it is thought, of impurity in the water, this being brought about by the lona continued drought and Insufficient supply. There is no doubt that the ex tremely warm and dry weather of the last two months has so reduced the natural flow of the Croton river as to render the supply of water entirely inadequate to the wants of the city, and early in the season the chief engineer of the department was sent to Putnam county in order to ascer tain if an additional supply could be ob tained, and in consequence, several lakes of pure water were discovered and secured.— The wisdom of these precautionary meas ures are now being made apparent, for Borne davs since the supply at the reservoir having been found very low, fifty millions of gallons were supplied from these lakes.— Had it not been for this the city would now be almost without water. The annual report of the Commissioners of Central Park has just been sent in, and contains some interesting items. Photo graphic pictures of points and objects of interest are given, end also a description ol works outside the Park, a topographical description of the Park, correspondence in relation to a parade ground, and also in re lation to specimens for the museum of natural history; In relation to works of art; lists of gifts, devices, bequests, speci mens deposited for exhibition, birds and animals in captivity; a paper on the water ing of roads-, a description of meteorologi cal apparatus, and other matter of interest. The benefit of the Park to surrounding property is also shown. In 1856, the total value was something over twenty-six mil lions, and in 1869 the value was over one hundred and fifty millions ; showing an in crease of more than one hundred and twen ty-three millions in twelve years. The total coat of the Park, including the cost of the ground ($5,328,844), up to the first of January, was $10,804,231, and the annual clothe ' Park' u ['" t J " nwr oncost of land and im provement, is $2,159,908. The total num ber of pedestrians«ntering the Park during the year was 3,265,541 ; equestrians, 54,611; vehicles, 1,340,697. The total number of visitors for 1869 was 7,350,957. Fisk and Maretzek, not content with the pommelling inflicted on each other at the Grand Opera House, and with the issuing on each side of indignant letters to the public, are about to appeal to the courts. This method of procedure was resorted to in the first place by the beaten and bela bored impressario, who had a writ served upon his antagonist, the latter, meantime, swearing vengeance in return. All this is as amusing to lookers on as the most di verting spectacle which these two promi nent caterers for the amusement of the public could, in their happiest moments, devise. October is close at hand, and, with the coming of the “ melancholy days” and the falling leaves, one has a right to look for cooler weather- For the last few days, however, we have been suffering from a hot and sultry sun, which brings unwel come memories of days just gone by ; and, looking for causes of heat so unusual, some give as connected with this the remarkable display of the northern lights which on Saturday night illumined the heavens with a brilliancy which lias not for years been witnessed, and which covered the entire sky from zenith to horizon. The Germans are, one and all, busy and interested in a Fair, which is to be held on the 17th proximo, in aid of the wounded of that nation on the other side. Where it is to be is not as yet made public, but we doubt not it will be a fine affair. Openings come thick and fast, and the f ishionables are in a state of happiness in going from one to another. Fifth avenue and Broadway have resumed their wonted appearance, fashionable theatres are filled, and fashionable churches are reopened, even Beecher having resumed his .shep herd’s staff. The event of most interest this week will be the funeral of Admiral Farragut, which is to take place to-morrow, amid ceremo nies the most imposing that can be devised by the committee of arrangements appoint ed for that purpose, and the minute de tails of which have not as yet been given to the public. The order of procession, it is now knownj will be frbm the foot of Canal street where the remains will be landed, to Broadway; up Broadway to Fourteenth street, through Fourteenth street to Fifth avenue, and through Fifth avenue to Forty-second street. All the stores on Broadway, on the line of march, will be draped in mourning. The military, exclu sive of the Grand Army of the Republic, which, as a civic body, will parade, will, it is estimated, amount to about twelve thou sand men, and it has been positively an nounced that the President and Cabinet will participate. Seebach, the German tragedienne, whose coming Grau has all Summer with such diligence heralded, has marie her appear ance at the French theatre, and has been received with great favor. The character chosen for her debut in America was the favorite, almost the hackneyed, one of Mar guerite, from Goethe’s Faust, and last night she selected the role of Mary Stuart , one possibly better known and as often repre sented as the unhappy Gretchen of German tragedy, and a character which was a fa vorite one of Ristori, and one in which Seebach exhibited her powers to as great advantage perhaps as in her previous im personation of the love-stricken maiden. German in New York, however, has not hith erto been the language of Fashion, and to the dictates of Fashion, and to the caprices even of a goddess so fickle, the caterer to the public must even yield ; and possibly it may have been in consequence of this that the audience last night was not nearly so crowded as that wh'ch greeted Ristori night after night, even subsequent to the lapse of weeks and months. The Nilsson concerts prove still a great success, though to see Nilsson iu concert sei ves but to give one a glimpse of how much greater she would prove herself iu opera, unfettered by the restraints of the concert room. Ja- nanschek, after a prolonged disappearance f* qmjpnhllc. view, is announced for Kng- Uajutiraroa at the Academy of Music, on the l2th of next month. Cl I- * -•WILtODOHBy. FUNERAL NOTICE.

MALARIOUS FEVERS ARE MOST PREVA LENT in the Fall. Heavy and unwholesome exha lations then arise from the earth, and the great disparity between the temperature of day and Bight predisposes the system, enfeebled by the Summer heats, to epidemic diseases. The secretive organs, the liver especially, are apt, at this period of the year, to. bscome inert and sluggish, and all the bodily powers require renovation.

Pre-eminent among the restoratives of this class, and indeed fore most among the remedial and preventive medicines of modern times, stands Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. Its reputation is co-extensive with the Western Hemisphere; it has been a standard article for twenty years; its sales (as may be ascertained by the revenue returns) are far larger than those of any other pro' prietary preparation on this continent; and the tes timony in its favor embraces letters of. approval from the most distinguished members of all the learned professions and from well known residents of almost every city In the Union.
