ONE YEAR AGO.
What stars ha>* faded from our sky !
What hopes unfolded but to die !
W'hat dreams so fondly pondered o'er,
Forever lost the hues they wore !
How like a death-knell, sad and slow,
Tells through the scul “one year ago 1”
Where is the face we love to greet,
The form that graced the fireside seal,
The gentle smile, the winning way.
That blessed our pathway day by day 1
Where fled those accents soft and low,
That thrilled our hearts “one year ago 1
Ah ! vacant is the fireside-chair,
The smile that won no longer there ;
From tic or and hall, from porch and lawn,
The echo of the voice is gone,
And we who linger only know
How much was lost “one year ago !”
Beside her grave the marble white
Keeps silent guard by day and night!
Merese she sleeps, nor heeds the tread
Os footsteps o’er her lovely head !
Her pulseless breast no more may know
'l’hc pangs of life “one year ago!”
But why repine? A few more years,
A sow more broken sighs and tears,
And we, enlisted with the dead,
Shall follow where her steps have fled ;
To that far world rejoicing go
To which she passed “one year ago!”
CoTTox Manufactories. —Statistics in the
Interior Department show the number of cotton
manufacturing establishments in the United
States, in 1860, to have been 1,091. The ag
gregate amount of capital iuvested was ninety
seven million, five hundred and eighty-five thou
sand two hundicd and sixty-nine dollars, being
an increase of twenty-two million five hundred
nnd fifty-twa thousand, six hundred and ninety
one dollars, or 39 6 per cent over the total capi
tal of 1859. The quantity of cotton consumed
(exclusive of fifteen million, two hundred thou
sand and sixty-one pounds wrought into mixed
fabrics of cotton and wool) was four hundred
nnd twenty-two million, seven hundred and
four thousand, nine hundred and seventy-five
pounds, equivalent to one thousand, six hundred
and fifty-six bales of four hundred pounds each,
which was four hundred and fifty million, one
hundred and seventy-seven thousand, nine hun
dred and seventy-live pounds, or 55.5 percent
in excess of the consumption of 1850. The
total cost of raw material was fifty-seven mil
lion, two hundred and eightydivo thousand,
five hundred and thirty-spur dollars, and of la
bor, twentysthree million, nine hundren and
forty-nine thousand, one hundred and eight
dollars. Tne average number of male hands
employed throughout the year was forty-six
thousand, eight hundred and fifty-nine; of fe
males, seventy-five thousand, one hundred and
sixty-nine. The aggregate number of spindles
in operation was five mi licyr, two hundred and
thirty-five thousand, seven hundredhind twenty
seven, and ol looms, one hundred and twenty
six thousand, three hundred and thirteen. The
total value of all kinds of cotton goods inunufac
tured was one hundred and fifteen million, six
hundred and eighty-one thousand, seven hun
dred and seventy-four dollars.
The product of cotton cloth, including two
hundred and seventy one mil ion, eight hundred
and fifty-nine thousand yards of printed cloth,
amounted to one billion, one hundred and forty
eight million, two hundred and fifty-two thou
sand four hundred and six yards, the quantity
of yarn and thread to forty-seven million, two,
hundred and forty-one thousand, six hundred
and three pounds, and of hats, wicking and wad
ding to twelve million, nine hundred and sixty
seven thousand,Viine hundred and fifty-sx
pounds. In addition to the foregoing, the pro
duct embraces a large aggregate of miscellane
ous articles and fabrics, among wnich were the
following: Coverlets’ eleven thousand, five
hundreejj tabic-cloths and counterpanes, eleven
thousand, six hundred ; quilts, one hundred
and twenty-two thousand; mosquito netting,
ono million, fivo hundred and eighty-two thou
sand. fnu» kunJ,cJ j.xrdo, wttou cordage, lines,

sand pounds ; quilts, one hundred and ninety
live thousand, threo hundred and ninety-one
pounds; seamless bags, six million,two hundred
and thirty-five thousand. The number of yards
of sheetings; shirtings, printed * cloth, etc.,
amounted to thirty-six mid a'quarter yards per
capita for the total population of the Union,
Underground Railroad in England. —A
lato number of tho London Engineer has some
interesting reports concerning the practical
workings of the system of underground lailroads
in London. When the lines are completed it
is expected that trains will run at intervals of
two minutes. During tho last hall year 7,462,-
823 persons were carried, or two and a half times
the wholo population of tho ci y. The mere
increase in tho number of passengers eonveyed
during the last half year, over that of the pre
ceding one, was equivalent to the united popula
tion of a score of the largest towns and cities in
England, including Manchester, Liverpool and
Birmingham.
The Engineer makes a repert of the financial
results:
“The third class passengers, in the number
given, were 5,110,823, or nearly till per cent of
the whole. 'The total capital of the company in
ordinary and preference shares and debentures
amounts to .£‘2,800,000, but will amount, it is
expected, to £5,400,000, when the whole system
is completed. As to the soundness of the
scheme and its profitable character, it may be
mentioned that in the first year of its existence
the shares were sold at 50 per cent discount;
since then they have been sold at upwards of 40
per cent premium. The dividend of the last
halfyear was at the rate of 7 per cent per an
num. The rovenue has risen from £15,000 for
the half year ending December 1863, to £41,»
000 for the half year ending June, 1865. The
traffic per mile presents an extraordinary con
trast with that of most other railway companies.
Ihe metropolitan receipts per mile, per week,
are as high as £703. The nearest approach to
this is by some ot the lines which have metro
politan and suburban traffic, but all of these fall
far short ol it. The Blackwell line reaches
about £394 per mile per week and the North
London £373; whereas of the great companies
having London termini and other large compa
pies in other parts of the country, the traffic only
yields receipts ranging from £6O to £l6O per
mile per week.
“In one week the Metropolitan (underground)
carried 370,843 passengers ; on one day alone it
carried 83,140, and as a result of the perfect sys
tem of signaling adopted on that lino, this enor
mous business was done without loss of life or
casualty to a single passenger. No train is al
lowed to leave a, station until word is received
that, the line is clear to the next station. The
Metropolitan forms an important part of what
is poj ularly known as‘the inner circle,’which
give access by railway in all directions in gene
ral, and leads to no place in particular. This
circle, belt, or link, is far from being a true circle.
On the map it has somewhat of the appearance
of the trunk and head of a hog."

A desperate affray occurred at Baruesville,
in this State. December 26, in which a Mr.
Taylor, of Chambers County, Alabama, was
killed, and also another gentleman named
Pounds. We understand that the attack was
made upon Taylor, with intent to kill, as is
supposed. Taylor, iu defence, killed one of
his assailants named Pounds, but was imme
diately shot in several places by another
Founds, brother of tbe gentleman whom Tay
lor killed. Mr. Taylor died shortly after he
was shot.
A man named Ennes was killed in Atlanta

Another Plan ot the Radicals.—The
Washington correspondent of the Louisville
Courier telegraphs thus under date of Decem
ber 28 :
The Radical faction in Congress has become
so woii convinced of its inability to carry out
the proposed measure of territorializing the
South and defeating the President's plan ol
reconstruction, that u new programme has
been invented to circumvent tbe President, if
possible Precisely tbe same tric-ks as those
employed in the Kiasas imi rogiio have been
ad ipted;
IleioluiLons are to be Introduced authorlz'ng
the Caucus Ucnimittto of fifteen to appoint a
sub-committee to visit ail parts of the South
and report on the condition of affairs. When
it is recollected that this sub-committee, if
authorized, will be appointed by Thad. Stev
ens, the character of its repori. may be easily
anticipated. Iheobject of this movement is
to delay the reconstruction of the South on the
President’s plan, but it is confidently believed
that the reconstruction will De completed long
before any such committee, if cue should be
appointed, caa make s report.
The Prospect Ahead —The New York
Herald generally follows public opinion.
Benaett never ventures an idel, unless he la
first sure that he speaks what tho people feel
and desire. In remarking upon the present
position of affairs in Congreas he comments
thus ;
The first day’s proceedings of the present
Congress, in both houses, cast a heavy shad
ow upon the country. From the apparent sur
render of the Houee to the radical heresies of
Stevens, and of tho Senate to the fanatical ca
prices of Sumner, there was reason for tho ap
prehension that the policy of both branches
would be the p.l Icy of reducing the excluded
Southern States to the condition of unorgan
ized Territories, and of holding them under
all the evils of a rigid military despotism for
at least two years longer, Such was the
gloomy opening of the present Congiess.
Sumner and Stevens appeared to bo masters
of (ho two homes, each .with an ovewhelming
majority behind him ; but with the delivery of
the President's message the prospect began to
brighten ; and so rapidly has tho President’s
policy since been gaining ground that we may
annomce that the glory of Sumner and Ste
vens has departed, and that their radical here
sies are scattered to the winds.
We believe that the radicals will be defeated
la all their plans in the National Halls
Legislation. It is to be sincerely hoped that

An Op in ion from Forney. —For soma time
Forney has not been on good terms with the
PreMdent. Au opfnion therefore from him is
worth more than were the position of matter
otherwise. It is to be hoped his predictions
will prove correct, and that the radicals will be
completely routed. Hare is what he thinks
of the condition of affairs :
“I repeat that, looking at the President’s
restoration policy as enunciated in his two
letters to the Governors of Georgia and Ala
bama in ihe light of the facts just stated, I
believe and predict it will prove to be a per-«
manent and a peaceful adjustment.
“It is not in nature of things that the pro
position of Mr. Stevens, to hold these
States in a territorial condition “for some
years," or until certain amendments of the
National Constitution have consumma
ted, can be made a party test, not to speak of
the necessity of maintaining, under such a
plau, a military organization, with all Its in
credible expenditures, no party could be held
together in tbe free States, in the face of the
incessant turbulance, dissatisfaction and bit
terness that must spread all over the Union
as a consequence of so chaotic and unsettled a
policy.
Tub Lamar .Cotton Case —lu the Savannah

other p vpers were receipts of the warehouse
men at Tnomosvilie, with whom the gotten

cotton, which Mr Lamar, Jr , was instructed
to haul and ship as such, ihe lists and re
ceipts were introduced by the prosecution to
show tbr.t a considerable portion of the cotton
included in the list ot Exporting and Importing

Good Advice to Fkeldmen.— Major Reves, '
the Superintendent of the Free imcuat Mem
phis has been giving the colored people of that
section some excellent advice. His remarks are
applicable to the- Reedmtn everywhere. Here
is what he says :
The great importance of the colored people
throughout tbe country securing immediate
employment for the coming.year, that shall be
steady, reliable and remunerative, and euoh as
will furnish them comfortable homes for the
season, is earnestly pressed upon tie minds of
all.
With your liberties you have received the
responsibilities of free people, ana must not
only provide for yourselves, but for your fumi
ties and infirm relatives; this you can onlv do
by hard wbrk.
If you neglect to enter into contracts until
the agreement under which yon now labor,
and which now secures homes for yourselves
and families, ends, you will find yourselves at
the close of the present contracts homeless
and without the means of support Make
yout; bargains with good men, and make them
as rapidly as possible, for if you neglect the
seed time the harvest will neglect you.
To the oolcred poeple in this city I would
say, unless you have a good business to sup
port you, you had better leave the vice and
strife of the crowded city and return to the
country, were the fields are needing your labor,
and where you can secure comfortable and
healthy homes and good wages for your work.
la the city your earnings are entirely con
sumed in providing provisions and paying rents
for rooms that are so unfit to live in, that
your health and that of ycur families is destroy
ed; and your families as well as yourselves
must suffer.
We trust the freedmen ia this section will
give heed to excellent advice like this. If
they do, it will be well with them. If they do
not they will drag out a miserable existence
—half starved, half clothed; despised even by
those of their own color and race.
Tbe Address of the New Fenian President,
—An address of Mr. W. K. Roberts, the new
President of the Fenian Brotherhood, to all the
Feniars in the United States has been issued.
The feature of this document is that it favors
immediate war for Irish independence. We give
acme additional points that derive tlieir impor
tance from tho fact that the opposition to Presi
dent O’Mahonay, which in the election of Pres
ident Roberts, has been successful, has al
ways urged prompt and vigorous measures
and will endeavor to create a revolution at
once :
“Every energy must now be given to aid the
veteran soldier wbo directs the military affairs
of tho Brotherhood. He harf great faith iu
leaden bullets, and very little in paper ones,
and as I am entirely of hia way of thinking,
you may rely upon" my placing all tho means
at my disposal under his control and direction.
Action, action must therefore ba the order of
the day.
“The funds contributed by the patriotic toil
ing masses the of Irishmen of America—must
not be squandered or turned into other chan
nels than those for which they wore intended.
The Irish people in America stand ready to give
millions for war hut not one dollar as a tribute
to drones or adventurers. We must have seme
other trophies to show for our high-sounding
professions than a sow old rusly muskets dis.
played in a garret, as voluntary offering of pa
riotic men. Time, circumstances and the Al
mighty seem to favor the present movement
for the overthrow of thil despotic and brutal
power who has left desolation in the track of her
friendship, and misery as the legacy of her
slaves.” o ***'*• Q *
“The organization Is the joint product of the
patriotic thousands who, with tho deep love
of native land for which onr countrymen are
proverbial, have toiled and contrbuted until it
has reached its present gigantic proportion.
They have made it; they will sustain it. And
thousands equally true and patriotic, stand
ready to come in or contribute when the first
buum ui mo raimua announces the battle for
Irish freedom begun. England must moot pri
vateers on every ocean and Irish foes in every
clime. We will strike at her wherever she is
moat vulnerable, and where we can best assist
our brothers at home.
President Johnson in England.— The Eng
lish press, although it dislikes to have matters
in this country peaceably settled, nevertheless
cannot help admiring tho wise and statesman
like policy cf President JohnsCn. The Lon
don Herald, in remarking about it speaks thus:
To turn scoffing into reverence, curses into
blessings, and to cocquer the good opinion of
the world, in despite almost of itself, is not a
work given to many mon. There are a few
fraud examples in history, and but a few.—
herefore when wo find a ruler who seemed
to presage a reign of terror, and whose antece
dents pointed him out rather as an avenger
than a healer of social disorder, winning his
way in tho world's esteem by clemency, the
spectacle makes a deep impression on cur
minds, and calis for remark not more generous
than just. President Johnson «fcas agreeably
disappointed at least one-half of the world
by a wise and statesman like poiiey that will
give him a high place in the pantheon of
American worthies. Quite in an other way than
that contemplated by the republican fanatics,
ho is the man tor the times; and while Wash
ington has the credit of establishing his coun
try’s independence and setting its form of
government, Andrew Johnson may yet go
down to posterity as the statesman who, by a
wise clemency, reconstructed the edifice when
it had suffered a blow that shattered it to its
foundation.

During the fate Jamaica insurrection some
frightful atrocities were committed. The

“The most frightful atrocities were perpe

cut out while still alive, and an attemDt is
said to have been made to skin him. ‘One
person (Mr. Chas Price, a black man. and for

Ths Otstkr.—Scientifically the oyster is a
lamellibranchiate mollusc ! Each oyster can
produce 1.200.000 eggs. Each young oyster is
the hundred and twentieth of an inch in length,
and about two millions may bs packed within
the dimensions of a cubic inch. About one
half of all the young oysters are eaten nn by
old fish. Oysters attain their majority in* two
years. Tbe majority of those eaten by biva! vil
lous mat), however, are only one and a half
years of age. In this country, owing to greater
cheapness and the easier circumstances cf the
workine classes, the consumption of tbe oyster
is infinitely greater than in England. The
oyster trade of New York alone is estimated at
over $5,000,000 annually.

A Dead State an Imposibilitt.— Hon Henry
J, Raymond in his great conservative speech
on the floor of the H >uso, a f«w days since, took
a position in regard to the existing state of af
fairs which the radicals will find rather
difficult to make an impression upon, not
withstanding the, malignity of their assault.
In speaking of tho “impossibility of a dead
State,” he remarked;
A dead State is a solecism, a contradiction
of terms, an impossibility. Those who assert
that a State is destroyed whenever its constitu
tion is changed, or whenever its practical re
lations with this Government are changed
must be held responsible for whatever meta
physical niceties may be necessarily involved
in "the discussion. Ido not know, Sir, that I
have made my views on this clear to tho gentle
rnau from Pennsylvania—Mr. Kelly—who has
questioned me upon it, and lam stiii more
doubtful whether, even if they are intelligible,
he will concur with me as to tt-eir justice. But
I regrrd those States just as truly within the
jurisdiction of the Constitution, and, therefore,
just as really and truly States of the American
Union now as they were before the war. Their
practical relations to the Government of the
United States have been disturbed and we
have been endeavoring through four years of
war, to restore them and make them what they
were before the war.
The military in the field has given us the
means of doing this. We can now re establish
the practical relation of those States to the Gov
ernment, and theactual jurisdiction over them,
which they vainly attempted to throw off, is
already restored. Tho conquest we have
achieved, is a conquest over an insurrection;not
a conquest over tbe States whose authority the
war had for the time subverted. For thess
reasons I think the views submitted by the
gentleman from Pennsylvania—Mr. Stevens—
upon this point, are unsound.
FROM .VIKXICO
Advices from Mexico state that it is reported
that the Imperial troops had again occupied
the city of Chihuahua, and that they were also
in possession of Piedros Negsor. A number of
accounts of additional defeats of the Eepubli
cans in the interior are given, the most impor
tant of which 1s one announcing that the army
of Gen. Escabado had been attacked some dis
tance from Monterey and utterly routed, and
that Escabado himself had escaped with an es
cort of only twenty men. E'rom Republican
sources we have Gen. Escabado's report cf the
recent engagement between his owa and the
Imperial troops at Monterey, presenting a
strong contrast to the Imperial accounts here
tofore received. Gen. Escabado claims that he
drove Maximilian’s men out of the city, and
that he sabsequent'y held it against a strong
night attack, inflicting severe loss on the ene
my in killed, woimdudand prisoners, while big
own casualties were very light.
