those stated iu his petition—tbe other oalh is
that, ins cribed in the Anmee f y proclamation
of President Johnson.

Thk FuTtiflE Piiiois ot - CeTtJii. —Tho New
Yoik Tribune thinks tho price o? cotton wil
advance, instead of being lower—for a time a
least It reasons thus iu regard to tko mat
ter :
Ihi re was far more cotton in the South
wheo the war sopped than has hitherto been
eatSm.n,ed. If, as we stated, there aro now
200,000 bales at this port an 1 New Orleans
only, with 45,000 at Mobile, the quantity in
tbe market must be lully 300.000 bales ; and
if it be, as appears, still coming in at the rate
of 35,000 per week, theie can be hardly iess
than one million bales to-day in the country,
worth, where it lies, not iess than $150,000,000
in gold, anil of still greater value at Liver
pool We shall probably export enough to
give us at leist £15,000 to draw against, which
is no small item. .
ASyet, the Southern railroads are mainly
unrepaired, the Southern rivers p.toamboatleis
or too low to bo navigated, so that much ot
ik. cotton may be kept back until November;
but it is “gU as good as rye,” and be likely to
rule higher iu price than lower in Liverpool
fix mouths hence.
For, whiio tho old stock proves larger than
was estimated, the growing crop cannot ex
ceed pjie million of bales, and is more likely
to fall below that mark. Texas may have a
halt crop, lut the dieerganiaation of the
Bcuthem labor is so complete, while the col
hq se ol the rebellion cfccurrid so late in the
season, that the one planted is very small,
ihe South will make corn aud pork enough
lor tei own subsistence 5 but her export sta
ples will this year be grown so meagoily that
they cannot fail to advance in price.' Cotton
pi .v be lower next wiouth or next fall than it
is to day. but wo are confident that it will
rule higher in Liverpool next March than it
locs to-day.

the present library, and with the old library will

will he ready for use in December and the south
wing in May next. The workjin the wings will be
in keeping with the old library, except, asstated,
there will be one more tier oi alcoves. The
ceiling will finish with a cove springing from
the upper cornice of the alcoves, instead of the
consoles. The capacity of the present library is
for 38,000 volumes. The proposed wings will
accommodate 76,000 and the attic story 20,000,
making the total capacity of the enlarged room
134,000 volumes. It is also proposed to fit up

Arabik Laughing Plant. —ln Palgrave’s
“ Central and Eastern Arabia,” some particulars
are given in regard to a curious narcotic plant.
It;? seeds, ip which the active principle seems
chiefly to reside, when potindi.t! and administcr
ed in a small dose, produce eflects much like
those ascribed to Sir Humphrey Davy’s laugh
ing gas;tho patient dances, sings, and performs
a thousand extravagances, till after an hour of
great excitement to himself and amusement to
the bystanders, he tails asleep, anil on awaking
has lost all me 1 Wiry of what he did or said while
under the influence of the drug. To put a
pinch of this powder into the coflee of some un
suspecting individual is a not uncommon joke,
nor is it said that it was eyer fqllcpwefl by serD
ous consequences, though ari over quantity
might perhaps be dangerous. The author
tried it op ttvo individuals, but in proportions, if
not absolutely hotnoepathic, still sufficiently
minute t.o keep on the safe side, and witnessed
its operation, laughable enough, hut very harm
less. The plant that bears these berries hardly
attains in Rasetm the height of six inches above
the ground, but in Oman we,re seen bushes of it
three or four feet in growth, and wide-spreading.
The stems are woody, and of a yellow tinge
when barked ; the leaf of a dark green color, aud
pinnated, with about twenty leaflets on either
jjid.a ; ttie stalks smooth and shining ; the flowers
are yellow, and grow in tufts, tho anthers nu
merous ; thg fruit is a capsule, stuffed with a
greenish padding, in which iie embpded two or
three black seeds,in sissc aud shape iqucl) like
French beans ; their taste, is sweetish, but with a
peculiar opiate flavor ; ihc smell heavy and
almost sickly.
Queer Scene.—A queei instance in illus
tration of this vice ha? recently been brought
to light in a neighboring town. A m iriied
woman moving in high circles, left her home
one evening last week, and taking a conveyance
to a hotel iu the rural districts, was soon joined
by an unfaithful husband, who ought to have
been at home taking care of his own family,
instead of engaging in intimate companionship
with those outside of his own household. The
couple ordered a room together, representing
themselves ns husband and wife. At a later
hour the same night a carriage drove up to the
door of the hotel with another couple, who en
gaged lodging in an adjoining chamber. All
passed oil quietly enough until the next morn
ing, when the two couples were summoned to
the breaefast table. There they’met, when—lq
and behold!—there was a mere change of part
ners, each gentleman having upon his arm the
wife of the other! Although there was mutual
blushing, mental cursing and recrimination, it
jvas deemed best, after a sober, second thought
To let the matter rest as quietly as possible, but

Mines of Cape Briton.—The. island of Cape
Breton, lying at the eastern extremity of the
peninsula ol Nova Scotia, and under the same
government, contains 3.120 square miles of
territory, and 27,580 inhabitants. In size equal
to two-thirds of Connecticut,'it has but one
fourteenth of its population. The greatest
wealth of the island is in its mines, which have
only begun to be worked to any considerable
extent. The coal, which for gas and steam
purposes is of superior quality, was exported in
18.*i3 to the extent of 220,000 tons, in 1384,
830,000 tons, and this year is expected to reach
450-,000 tons. The mines of iron, copper and
silver are quite rich. Yet there is r at* a bank,
not a steamboat, not a railway on the island.
