TiieNkw Orlkan’3 Cotton Petition.—Sonae
I time since :: petition was sent to the President
| from Hew Orleans, representing tnat it was
| impossible to distinguish Confelerato from
| other cotton ; and that the attempt to en
i force the lights ot the Government under the
; ..I. c iflon act wa3 causing much mischievous
delay, taxation and loss to the legitimate ccm
int-rce. Ihe petition prays, therefore, for the
: abandon men t of this policy, and that ail cot
on be admitted, subject to a tax ot 10 to 20
; i -rcenf., a sum as shall be deemed sufficient to
! cever the claims of tho Government.
b-me fiuy or sixty of tbe oldest cotton sac-
I to y houses of New Orleans, have just sent the
I Pr- -:id--.it a memorial, which states that no
such difficulty exists; that confiscated cotton
may er. rilybe told Irom that owned by private
dealers, and they protest against the scheme
| proposed as a continuance for the benefit ot
irregular speculations. Ihe tactoiies Lave

fore the war. It Is supposed the speculators
i sometimes get hold o£cotton belonging to the
former, and they naturally desire to drive the

IL . they may claim ownership under the laws

Tine Comp l : and Treasury Notes Counterfeit
—Tii Secretary of the Treasury has just issued
the to (o.viog ehcular :
Treasury Pi pahtment, j
Sept. 21, 18(15. J
Tip'- instructions contained iu tho citcular of
Iho Department dated September 16th, relative
to iho counterfeit SIOO compound interest
notes, Assistant Treasurers and
designated depositories not to pay out SIOO
compound interest notes, nor other denomina
tions of compand interest notes, bearing the
date of May 15, 1805, or prior to that time,
were intended to apply to the notes held by
ueh Assistant Treasurers aud depositories as
Government tunds, and were not designed to
direct the action of banks or individuals relative
to au h compound interest rotes held on their
own account.
The difficulty and expense of at once with
drawing from circulation or exchanging for
other notes all compound interest notes of the
character described now ia circulation, make
the attempt inadvisable. Ike department
will, however, withdraw from circulation the
SIOO compound interest notes ns fast as they
mav be received in the ordinary course of
business aud re-issue more of the same im
pression, and it is hoped that by due care and
a ition after the immediate exposure of the
dangerous character of the counterfeit, any
con idevabio circulation of them may be pre
vented. Assistant Treasurers and depositories
will, therefore, forward to the Treasurer of
<he United. States such compound interest
notes as are of the deuomiuation of SIOO,
, r ,a all compound interest notes which are
ll ded May Ibdi, 1835, or prior thereto, the
same being held as lands of the Government,
and not otherwise.

President Johnson's Teech to tee South
ern Delegation .—The Albany Journal ccm
mrafs thus on the speech :
’Puis s peech which we published, breathes
the spirit ot fraternal conciliation. It cannot
fail to have a most salutary influence upon the
p t!o pie of the South. It must be received as
conclusive of the settled purpose cf the Admin
is'ration to temper justice with motcy. and to.
cvreiso the utmost kindness and forbearance
towards all who shall manifest.* the J
-•politest disposition to return to their |
a!finance. None but the most criminal- |
iy rb lut .te can icsist the kindly aLd afiec
tfonato appeal of tho President, or withhold
their a- twoval of the trank and reasonable tests
" allc dance which he enunciates. Nothing
j less could be demanded ; and those who shall
Teiuse to respond to the magnanimous appeal,
will deserve the execiattens of tho people of
| the South and the severest punishment urovid
ed lor persistent treason against the Govern
| ment.
The spirit recently evinced by tho mass ot
the Southern ueople, justify the hope of an
ultimate, and speedy, and hearty acquiescence
ia the wise aud traternal policy of the Aumin

and we believe, that, much sooner than the

Savannah ane New Yoek —The Atlantic
Coast Mail Steamship Company have made ar
rangement* for a semi-weekly lino between
Savannah and New York. Besides tho boats now
running they will put on tbe‘•Nightingale’’
and the “Raleigh”—the latter a superb-r sbde
wheel steamer The proprietors ot this line,
Messrs. Livingston, Fox A Cos. of New York,
are determined to do all in their power to
make it worthy of the patronage of the public.
In this good work and worthy enterprise their
gentlemanly agent at Savannah, J. R. Wilder,
Esq., does all he can to assist. Those going
to New York will find this line as represented.
The British Cotton Trade.- -The London
Times of Sept. 3, in speaking or the British
cotton trade remarks thus :
Our imports have now reached nearly nine
hundred million hundred weights, or nearly
three-quarters of what they were at the climax
of the cotton trade iu 18*10 ; our exports ar >
only six millions short of tbe amount in that
famous year. But if the gross amount of the
trade is recovering Ps former condition, noth
ing can be more remarkable than the revolu
tion which has taken place in its course.
In 1860 the United States sent ns the enor
mous sum of one thousand one hundred and
fifteen million hundred weights of cotton, out
of a total of one thousand three hundred and
nineiy millions. In 1854, cut of a total cf
eight hundred and ninety-three millions, tho
United States sent us only fourteen millions ;
and India, which sent us in 1860 only two hue-,
dred millions, sent us last year five hundred
and six millions, India, in fact, is now the
principal source of the cotton supply, andoccu
pies a place a little inferior in proportion to
that which was formerly occupied by the Uni
ted States. Other countries, however, display
the intluerce of ihe same stimulus.
An increaso iu the value of our imports from
Egypt of from sixteen to nineteen millions ster
ling is due almost entirely to an increase in
the. cultivation of cotton. China has added
153,000 hundred weights, or more than three
millions in value, to the amount of her impor
tation, and though the amount received from
Japan is small, it has increased in the enor
mous ratio of 1,200 per cent. The high price
of cotton has attracted from many countries
the re-exportation to our shores of the
stocks they had imported for themselves, find
this plant, which was thought so difficult to
raise and so < clicate that we could not endure
the failure of our American supply, now comes
to us probably from more parts of the world
than any other article of commeicj.
The J lw3 in Russia —Great improvement
has been made in the position of the Jews us
Russia. A decision.of the Council of the Em
pire, sanctioned by the Emperor, and promul
gated by a ukase of the Senate dated 28lh
ultimo, authorizes the Jews engaged in icdus
trial occupations to circulate aud to establish
themselves in any part of tho Russian Empire.
This ukase givos to a great part of the Jews
the right to leave the localities in which they
wore previously limited in the western prov
inces of Russia. This measure will contribute
to the development of material interests, and
to a reduction in the prime cost of' manufac
tured goods. To settle in their new abodes
the Jews must first obtain a permission of res
idence ; they w 11 have the faculty oi belong
ing definitely to the commune of their choice;
but (hey will not be allowed to form com
munes composed .entirely of Jews, like those at
present existing in the western provinces. By
the offset of this interdiction they will lose
their distinct nationality, and will thus he
blended with the Russian populations.
The Government had to decide between sys
tems. It cCl'ld accord the right of circula
tion am] of settling Sri all pu ts of the territo
ry, either to ali the Jews, or to a certain num
ber of them. It fehoso to adopt the Ik* f er
plan. Only the Jews engaged in sogie manu
facturing trade can profit by the new decision >
oirents, money changers, aud retiil traders
have no ehaio iu its benefits. But, as the
journal, “The Voice,’’observes, it is proba
ble that the last named classes, when delivered
from the rivalry ol their manufacturing breth
ren, will become artisans and manufacturers,
for the express purpose of obtaining he right
of free circulation and choice ol residence
The number of Jews residing in towns and
villages of tho western provinces i? esEmitod
at 1,500,000 souls. This injurious agglomer
ation of poisons engaged in similar occupations
will socn cease, and the commercial forces of
the empire will be henceforth disseminated ia
a manner more favorable to tho general wel
fare. The Jews in a position to profit by tho
new' ukase will be allowed to take with them
their unmarried sisters, and their brothers who
are still minors. They will consequently car
ry with them tho elements of wealth and ac
tivity into the provinces where they may
choose to settle.* The emancipation of the
Jews will thus be gradually realized.
Salaries in England. —While the President
of the United States is paid $25,000 a year, to
which is added a residence placed on a not
very healthy site, Queen Victoda’s'aumiul al
lowance, payable ia hard cash, is $1,925,000,

annually payable, in specie,f if demanded, to

Truro, (widow of a deceased chancellor, and
daughter of tho late Duke of Sussex) draws

Tho members of the Government are hand
somely paid. Lord Palmerston's salary is

Secretary Harlan to Georgians —Recently
a delegation cf Georgians in Washington called
upon Secretary Harlan. Annexed is the sub
stance ol the interview. he Secretary said :
The object o? tire Government is to foster and
improve, cud to do i v -n fi nded justice to .all.
Throughout the rebellion ’.he books, papers
and public documents ot c cii btato have aiike
been prepared. To all t at were accessible
cud in proper I raise of mind to receive them,
they have been regul rly distributed. Those
ol Georgi* are here. Sind v«* will at once send
a quantity to the Government lor distribution.
Like distribution will also be made to all the
Staler lately In rebellion.
Judge Bigam said there had been occasion
ally seme repiuiiigs and some manifestations of
Inimical feelings ; that iki however, had al
most totally disappeared, end that the good

other in advancing the work of restoration ;
that ail regarded tho issue cf the war as tul
ly re til'd, and now sincerely desired the inau
'gnratioa of tbe la'a of -complete union and
gcqd feeling. The negro was held ta be uu
conditionatly ami unquestionably Lee, and re
gaided with kindness and sympathy. He be
lieved that alr altby public opinion existed
there that would insure him protection and
justice. This was as much as he was author
ized to say. No man had a Fgbt now to speak
for Georgia, or commit her to any particular
policy.
Mr. Harlan replied : lam glad to hear so
favorable a report, and hope the great issues ot
difference being once fully adjusted upon tho
results ot the war, that the union of the States
would be more perfect and harmonious than
ever, lie inquired tho details of tbe anange
ments made wi'h freed men, which Col. Fannin
—who is himself a planter—gave at length
and ia a very satisfactory way. Mr. Harlan
spoke in high terms cf General Howard, at
the head of tho Freediyen’3 Bureau. He ie
fem-d to the fact that _the law creating the
bureau made it temporary and inquired whit
ought to be done about the freedmen when the
time for the txistence ot the Bureau expires.
