A poem given by Miss Lizzie Doten, under
the inspiration of liobert Burns, at the close of
her lecture at tbo Melodeon, Boston, Hunday
Evening, May 13, 1866. Reported for the
Banner of Light by H. E. Gardner, M. D.:
I.
Could ye but ken. ye sona#o men
How truly ye are brithers,
Ye'd make guid speed to stand agreed,
Tho’ born o’ various mithers.
Ane cemmon breath, ane common death,
Ane home in Heaven above ye—
Ye are the fruit frae one great root
In the guid God who lo’es ye.
it.
All high and low, all empty show,
All envious differences,
Will fade from sight, and vanish quite,
When men come to their senses
Kach living man works out the plan
For which be was intended,
And be does best, who will na' rest,
Until his work is ended.
hi.
Your neebors’ blame, or sinful shame,
Should gie your soul na’ pleasure,
For while ye judge wie cruel grudge,
You fill you ain sad measure.
The De’il bimsel' could scarcely tell
Which o’ ye was the better;
lie wad be laith to leave ye baith,
While either was bis debtor.
IV.
Here in life’s school wi’ pain and dool*
You get your edncation,
While inony a trip' and sinful slip,
Helps on the soul's salvation.
The unco sk eight wi’ heads full high,
Wha feel themselves maiat holy,
Oft learn through sin, bow to begin,
IHte life amang the lowly.

Baith you and I may gang agley {
For ’tie a common failin’;
Bne hauld away ! we need na’ stay
A weepin’ and a wailin'.
The Qod a boon, cares not bow soon
We leave our sins behind us;
He does not hate us in that state,
Nor set the De’il to mind us.
VI.
And as for Hell o’ which men tell—
I’m sure o’ the opinion,
There’s na’ such place o' "saving grace,"
In all the Lord’s dominion.
Anil those who rave, pulr souls to save,
Wi’ long faced, pious iieechin’,^
Will find far hence that common sense
Is better than such preachin’.
vii
That which ye ca’ the power o’ law,
Is but a puir invention ;
It counts the deed as evil seed,
But winks at the Intention,
Could men but be mair truly free,
In nil things less restricked,
The world wad tind the human kind
Wad na’ be hall sae wicked. ,

The pent up steed kept short o’ feed,
Is wildest in his roamin’ ;
And dammed up streams wi’ angry gleams,
Dash o’er each hindrance foamin’.
Therefare, (I pray take what I say

Mankind should be as rivers, free—
The less they’re damned the better.
IX
You need na’ heed the gronsome creed
Which tells ye o’ God’s anger ;
On Nature’s page frae age to age,
Ilis love is written stranger.
God’s providence in ony sense,
Has nevor been one-sided,
And for the weal o’ the chick or oheil,
He amply haß provided.

The Clarksville Tournament.
A special to the Louisville Courier says, the
tournament held at Clarksville, Tenn., on the
31st, for the benefit of the Tennessee Orphans’
lioine, was a grand success ; and adds :
The weather, which had been for several
days unseasonably cool, was spring-like in
warmth, and the atmosphere bracing, and
nature wearing its loveliest guise. Everything
combined to reuder the entertainment attract
ive and interesting.
The largo amphitheatre on the foreground
was crowded at an eai ly hour. Trains trotn
all directions were loaded with people, and two
steamers from Nashville were crowded with
the representatives from the City of Rocks.—
Among the distinguished guests present were
Gen Cheatham uud lady, Gen. Williams, and
Gen. Cero Hendon.
General A. Quarels acted as Grand Marshal
of the day, aud delivered a thrilling address to
the Knights. General Williams responded for

hundred and sixty-five, shall continue in force

constitutional amendment, available to them
and beneficial to the republic.
Sec. 3. And be it further enacted, That
the Piesident shall, by and with the advice
and consent of the Senate, appoint two Assis
tant Commissioners, in addition to these au
thorized by tho act to which this-is an amend

nomical administration of the affairs of the
Bureau, appoint such agents, clerks and assis
tauts as may be required for the proper con
dust of the Bureau. Military officers or en
listed men may be detailed for service and as
signed to duty under th : e act; and the President
may, if in his judgment it be safe and judicious
ho to do, detail from the army all the officers
and agents of this Bureau ; but no officer so
assigned shall have increase of pay or allow
ances. Each agent or clerk not heretofore
authorized by law, not being a military officer,
shall have an annual salary of not lees than
five hnndred dollars, nor raoro than twelve
hundred dollars,.according to the service re
quired of him. And it shall be the duty of the
Commissioner, when it can be done consistent-
ly with public interests, to appoint, as Assis

men as have proved their loyalty by faithful

Provided, That no person shall be deemed
“destitute,'' "suffering,” or “dependent upon
the Government for Bupport,” within the
meaning of this act, who is able to find em
ployment, and could, by proper industry, or
exertion, avoid such destitution, suffering or
dependence. And the Secretary of War is
hereby authorized on the recommendation of
the Commissioner, to continue in office as
surgeons of the Bureau, with their present
rank, pay and allowances, the volunteers now
employed, and to fill any vacancies with other
volunteer surgeons, with like rank and com
pensation, unless suitable surgeons in the reg
ular army can be thus assigned to duty.
Seo. 5. And be it further enacted, That
for tho purpose of rendering this Bureau self
sustaining, and in tho place of funds heretofore
assigned to freedmen and thereafterwards
withdrawn from tho control of the Bureau, the

assign for tho use of freedmen and loyal refu
gees, male or female, unoccupied public
lands in Florida, Mississippi, Alabama,
Louisiana and Arkansas, not exceeding in all
one million of acres of good land. And the
Commissioner shall cause the same, under the
direction of the President, to be allotted and

! ceeding forty acres each, to the loyal refugees
and freedinen, who shall be protected in the
use and enjoyment thereof tor such term of
time and at such nominal rent as may be
agreed upon between the Commissioner and
such refugees or freedmen. The rental shall
be based upon the valuation of the land, to be
ascertained in such manner as the Commission
er may. under the direction of the President,
by regulation prescribe. At the end of each
term, or sooner, if the Commissioner shall
asseut thereto, tho occupant of any parcels so
assigned, their heirs and assigns, may pur
chase the laud and receive a title thereto from
the United States, in fee, upon payment tnere
for the value of the land ascertained as afore

Sec. 0, And be it further enacted, That
whenever the former owners of lands occupied
under General Sherman’s held order, dated at
Savannah, January sixteen, eighteen hundred
and sixty live,shall apply for the restoration ot
said lands, the Commissioner shall refuse the
surrender of the same.
Sec. 7. Whereas we recognize the necessity
and duty resting on the Government, and re
suiting from the condition of the freedmen, ot
aiding freedmen to receive that needful educa
tion whicli oppressive prejudices, laws and
customs denied them when held in slavery,
Therefore,
Be it further enacted, That the Commissioner
of this Bureau shall at all times co-operate
with private benevolent associations of citizens
in aid of freedmen, and with agents and teach
ers, duly accredited and appoiuted by them,
and shall provide sites and buildings for pur
poses ot education whenever such association
shall, without cost to the Government, provide
suitable teachers and means of instruction, aud

quired for the safe conduct of such schools
And said property shall be and remain the

of shall be authorized by law.
Sec. 8. And be it further enacted, That in
every State or district where the ordinary
course ot judicial proceedings has been inter

FI.YIiNKTI SO IOLE DREifl.
The Brotherhood, in solid phalanx, Press on.
They are Bere, There, and Everywhere.
For the better information of our readers,
we collate from our Nashville exchanges
the annexed telegrams, in reference to
the movements of the mysterious
hood. It appears that the “Head Centre”
snuffs the battle afar off. Late dispatches
locate him in Philadelphia, issuing manifest
toes—declaring the advance over the border
the veriest humbug, etc., etc. He may be
right. Who can say he is not ? However,
considerable excitement has been created, and
the smoke of battle has once more ascended to
the Heavens. But here are the dispatches :
Bov. Fenton Warns \tw Yorkers.
New Y'ork, June 2.— A dispatch from Alba
ny says : Governor Fenton will issue a procla.
mation to day, warning citizens of the State
against countenancing the Fenian invasion of
Canada. Also, that twelve regiments of militia
are to be Bent to the frontier, drawn from the
counties of Niagara, Monroe, Onondaga, Oswe
go, Jefferson and St. LawTence.
A dispatch from Montreal says it is reported
that the Fenians had seized the arms at Rouse’s
Point, and were marching on the British post
at Isle aux Noix. Also, that tho Canadian
Government had been informed that the gun
boat Michigan had intercepted a Fenian rein
forcement to those landed at Fort Erie.
British troops were marching from Hamilton
to capture the Fenians at Fort Erie.
Rutland, Vt., June 2, 1:30 A. M.—About
one hundred and fifty persons passed through
here this morning, en route north. Tney were
in charge of an officer wearing side arms, and
were mute as regards their destination and
object, but from parties! who arrived on the
same train with them, we learn they intend to
bring up at or near St. Albans, and there await
further instructions trom the commanding offi
cer of the lush Republic in Canada.
St. Albans, June 2.—A detachment of
United States troeps have gone hence to Ma
lone, on the Ogdensburg road to-day, between
Ogdensburg and Rouse’s Point, and will prob
ably protect the frontier.
General Mahoney is expected to-day with
more Massachusetts Fenians. He will take
command of all troops from that State. Gen.
Saiu. P. Speer, Chief in command of the Fe«
mans, will not move at once from the Point.
There were but few in town, and it was as quiet
as any country village on the Sabbath.
Albany, June 2.—A dispatch from Lockport
this evening says about 100 Fenians left there
last night for the West. The people of Lock
port are driving to the frontier to night in an
ticipation of witnessing a battle between a
body of Fenians and the British troopß, report
ed 5,000 Btrong. The Fenians here were very
actively engaged to-day in raising money to
forward men. Another detachment left at
midnight for the scene of war. If the leaders
had funds they say they could send 1,000 men
forward in 24 hours. Prominent Fenians here
say they anticipate exciting news to-morrow,
but decline even to indicate from what quarter
it may be expected.
Elmira, June 2.—Two companies of Fenians
from Baltimore and a company fiom Philadel
phia, passed through the city to-day bound for
I the border.
A special to the Herald from Ogdenß'ourg
says: Three cases of arms were seized at the
depot here by the United States Deputy Mar
sbal this morning, which were consigned by
express to a party at Malone.
Buffalo, J ane 2.—lt is stated that there were
about ten of the volunteers captured at Fort
Erie by the Fenians. There were three Fe
nians killed, and two Canadian soldiers. Capt.
King, who is at Welland, Will probably lose
his leg. He has, by permission, been brought
to Buffalo.
A well-known Fenian named Bailey is so
badly wounded that ho is not expected to live.
The Fenians are now encamped at the old
fort and picket the river down to the village
of Fort Erie, a distance of seven miles, Match
fires can be seen, two apparently signals. A
United States revenue cutter'arrived this even
ing from Cleveland and another is expected in
the morning. The river is patrolled ami orders
given to lire on any boat attempting to cross,
but the Fenians now in this neighborhood ex
press a determination to cross at all hazards.
A prominent Fenian asserts that to-morrow
will be a big day, and important news will be
heard from other points. When the Fenians
gobbled up and drove the Canadian volunteers
at the Fort Erie fight, the spectators on both
sides cheered lustily. There is a doubtful ru
mor that Col. O’Neil was slightly wounded.
Buffalo, June 2.—From present appears
ances, and from the present position of the
English troops, there will probably be no en
gagement to-sight; but it is apparently inevit
able in the morning. When it does come off
lull particulars wiil bo sent.
Buffalo, N. Y., June 2, 4 p. m. —The
latest news from the battle-field, received by
a gentleman just from the other side of the
line, is as tollows :
Eight hundred Volunteers loft Fort Colberne
this morning at 5:30, taking the Grand Trunk
Railroad to Rigeway, and marching from here
in-the diiection of Stearusvilie. They soon
encountered a lorce of Fenians, who are said
to be the same that went from here to Fort
Erie. A battle ensued, and the Fenians were
worsted. Our informant states that two of the
English troops were killed and a number
wounded, and that tho Fenians suffered to a
greater extent. At all events, about sixty
were taken prisoners and carried to Fort
Erie,
The Sacurwein bridge has been rebuilt. It
is reported by one of tho prisoners that the
Colonel commanding the Fenbns told them to
save themselves the best way they could.
5:30 p. m.—A gentleman just from the other
side reports the following : the tug Robb,
from Dunneville. with about forty Fenian
prisoners taken at Ridgeway, was lying at Fort
Erie dock at 3 p. m., when a body of about 200
Fenians came over the hill and tired into the
tug. The tug backed into the stream and
tired two shots while floating down. The Fe
nians then attacked a company of volunteer
artillery posted in town. Alter a brief resis
tance the Canadians wavered and finally gave
way, retreating down the river bank, rallying
at times. The tug steamed down keeping
abreast of the Canadians. The tiring shortly
ceased and the Canadians surrendered. The
fight lasted about twenty minutes The Fe
nians did not recapture any of their men. The
fight was wituessed by a large number of per
sons from this side.
LATER.
The force in the Fort Erie fight were all
volunteers consisting of detachments of Wel
land Canal field battery and a DunneviHe com
pany of about eighty meu. The fight lasted
only twenty minutes. Captain King of Wel
land battery was severely wounded in the le<*
and will suiter amputation. Two other volun°
teers were wounded, but none reported killed.
A Fenian Captain killed but name not gteen.
STILL LATER,
The Express published the following list of
killed Fenians: Thomas Gilman, Schuvikill
bayonet wound ; Thos Rafierty, Cincinnati’
mortally wounded in stomach. Canadians’
Ferguson Shaffield. Fort Colberne, severely in
leg ; John Bradley. Slabtown, in leg; John
Robinson, Fort Colberne, severely injthigh aud
and below knee.
* The Fenians at !a»t accounts still held the
place, but their force is too feeble to cope with
the British regulars and volunteers now on
their way from Chippewa to the scene of ac
tion. They had reached Block Creek, a tew
miles from Fort Erie. The British forces con
sisted of the 47th, 16th and 10th regulars, and
the Royal Artillery, aud several companies of
Canadian volunteers, making altogether not
less than 2,500 or 3,000 men.. At the battle of
Ridgeway Station neither force had artillery,
but some of the Canadians had repeating rifles,
while the Fenians were armed mostly with
ordinary muskets. Col. Starr, of Kentucky, is
said to be the one that gave word to the Feni
ans to scatter and save themselves. The num
ber of men on both sides did not exceed 7,000.
The accounts of parties who witnessed the
battle at Ridgeway Station are so conflicting
that it is almost impossible to get true ac
counts. Some still assert that the Fenians
whipped the Canadians, and others state to the
contrary.
8:30 p. m.— A fight at Fort Erie is considered
certain to-night. I can learn of no aoceesions
to the Fenian ranks in the last twenty-four
hours. Great surprise h expra«se.l that no
new- has been received from other poiuts, of
any demonstration. Somebody has failed to
•m ■ to time, and these Fort Erie Fenians will
i- .crificed, as they have no supplies, and
uiu-i b’ hopeless of any success iu this region
as the British forces are concentrating around
them.
Buffalo, June 2, 2:40 p. m. —The latest news
from Ridgeway Station, is that the Canadian
volunteers are being pushed by the Fenians,
and that two hundred have been killed on both
sides. Parties who have means of information
6ay it is about concluded, and that the Fenian
movement from th's quarter is finished, aud
that Pottsdam is to be the base of supplies.
Gen. Barry, who has taken command of the
frontier, says that the Government will do their
utmost to preserve order and prevent incur
sions into Canada.
It is stated for a fact that the Fenian leaders
encourage their men by saying the American
Government is favorable to them, and they
will find out their mistake in this quarter. One
company of United States regulars arrived here
this noon.
New York, May 2.—The Herald’s special
from Toronto, C. W., of the 2d, says there was
the wildest excitement on the streets when the
news of a battle was received, and business
was entirely suspended. Private dispatches
are constantly arriving, announcing theffeath
of some well known citizens, arid general
gloom is felt as one after another falls in de
fence of his country.
The operator, telegraphing from Port Col
born at 11 o’clock, says the battle commenced
at 8 o’clock, and was a pretiy smart affair.
Our men are retreating, but there is no doubt
of the result before evening. Quite a number
have been killed on both sides. There are
ominous reports from St. Albans.
Later.
The volunteers have fallen back upon Port
Colborn, and intend to fail back upon St.
Catherines if reinforcements do not arrive soon.
It is reported that the ICth and 17th regulars
and a battery of artillery have reached the
battle field, and are driving the Fenians be-:
fore them,
The telegraph special from Montreal says
that terrible intelligence has been received,
and that Gen. Sweeny is in position at St. A1
bans with a large force. The operator at St.
Albans says that he can’t get any reliable in
formation.
The reporter lor the Boston capers says :
There are about 1,500 Fenianslunder command
of Col. O’Conner. They have no arms in sight,
but have orders to go into camp at Fairfield,
five miles above St. -Albans.
A later dispatch says the Fenians have lost
nineteen killed and several wounded.
An operator below says that the Fenians, in
large numbers are concentrating at Malone,
New York, opposite Cornwall, evidently bound
for that place, twenty-eight miles distant.
Ex. M. P. P. Daly is circulating a petition
to Parliament to declare martial law.
Tbe Memphis Riot.
Headquarters Dep’t of Tennessee, i
Memphis, May 12, 1806. )
Lieut. Gen. U. 8. Grant, U. S. A.:
Your telegram of this date is received. '
The Third Colored Artillery has been sta
tioned bere since its organization, and coc'so
quently were not under the best of discipline ;
large numbers of the men have what they call
families, living in South Memphis, contiguous
to the fort in wh'ch thasoldiers were stationed.
These soldiers had been used as the instru
ments to execute the orders ot the Government
agents, such as provost marshals, Bureau
agents, &c, and consequently had been more
or less brought directly in contact with the
law-breaking portion of the community, ani
tho police, which is far from being composed
of the best class of residents here, and compose!
principally of Irishmen, who -consider the
negro as their competitor aud natural enemy.
Many negro soldiers have, from time to time,
been arrested by the po'ioe, and many whites,
inoluding some of the police, having been ar«
rested by the negro eoidiers and iu both cases
those arrested have not unfrequeutly been
treated with a harshness altogetner unneces
sary.
These remarks and hints will lead you t@
reflections which will explain and indicate to
you the state of feeling which existed be
tween the negro soldiers Vid their sympathiz
ers and the lower class of the whites nad their
sympathizers, in which the last are included
agitators, demagogues and office-seekers. The
testimony before the Commission which I have
assembled to investigate the circumstances
connected with the riots shows that at about
4 o’clock Monday afternoon, April 30, four po
licemen were walking down Cousey street,
and met three or four negroes ; they jostled
each other on tbe sidewalk, an altercation oc
curred, one of the policemen struck a negro
with a pistol, and was in return struck by
another negro with a cane. There was no
further trouble, though a good deal of excite
ment 'among the negroes that night.
Incident on this counter, about 4P. M. on
Monday, May 1, a crowd of from fifty to
seventy five negroes, mostly discharged sol
diers, were congregatad together near the
coiner of Main and South Btreets ; tho greatest
portion of these negroes were intoxicated.
Six policemen approached the crowd and ar
rested two of the most boisterous of the ne
groes. The policemen proceeded to conduct
these two negroes towards the station house,
being followed by the crowd of negroes, which
increased as they proceeded, and who used
very insulting and threatening language, and
accompanied their threats by firing pistols into
the air. The police turned and fired upon the
negroes, wounding one ; one af the negro pris
oners escaped, and the other was released by
the police. The negroes returned the fire,
wounding one of the police. The police force
of the city, together with a large crowd of
citizens, congregated togtber in the vi
cinity of South street, and being very
much infuriated, proceeded to shoot, beat and
threatened every negro met with in that per
tion of the city. This was continued until
about midnight on Tuesday night, when it was
quelled by the interference of a detachment of
the United States troops. Wednesday mornieg
arrived, and found large crowds of people col
lected together in South Memphis, most of
whom were armed. They remained there un •
til about one o’clock, P. M., when they wore
dispersed by a detachment of United States
soldiers which had been employed during the
day in keeping the discharged negro soldieis
in and white people out of the fort. During
the day several negro shanties were burned
down. About 10 o’clock on Wednesday night
a party of mounted men began to set fire to
the negro school houses, churches aud dwell
ing houses. It is hoped that the investigation
now being had will result in identifying the
parties engaged.
During Tuesday and Wednesday several in
offensive negroes were killed, and many mal
treated’ and beaten in different parts of the
city, The number killed and wounded in the
riot, as far as ascertained by the Commission,
were: one white man killed, (shot by a white
man behind him;) one white man wounded,
(shot by negroes.) The number of negroes
shot and beaten to death has not been ascer
tained. I will give you the information when
procured. Frequent applications were made
for arms and permission to organize a militia
force, all of which were refused, and on Thurs
day 1 issued an order, prohibiting any persons,
under whatsoever pretext, from assembling
auywheie, armed or unarmed. Great tears
were entertained that other buildings, such as
the Freedmen’s Bureau building, and the of
fice of the Memphis Post would be burned
down; bat if any such intentions were had the
disposition of the small force at my disposal
prevented the realization. An attempt was
made by some parties to gain possession of the
muskets which a lew days before had been
turned in by the 3d colored artillery. Every
officer and man here was on duty day and night
during the week. On the 4th they were re
lieved by a detachment I had ordered over
from Nashville.
As before stated, the rioters were composed
of the police, firemen, and the rabble and negro
baters in general, with, a sprinkling of Yankee
hatere, all led on and encouraged by dema
gogues and office hunters, and most of them
under the influence of whiskey. It appears in
evidence before the commission that John
Creighton, Recorder of the city, made a speech
to the rioters, in which he said : "‘We are not
yet prepared, but let us prepare to clean every
negro son of a out of town.’’
Very few paroled Confederates were mixed
up with the rioters on Tuesday and Wednes
day, the larger portion being registered voters.
Who composed the incendiaries on Wednesday
night remains to be developed.

Ihe Cleveland Herald tells of steamboat
engineers using sturgeon fi-h for fuel for the
boat. The oil in the fish assists the burning
of the wood.
Tbe la-t Boors of Sen. frott,
The Herald's correspondent writing from
West Point under date of the 29th of May,
gives the annexed particulars of the Licuteu
ent General’s last hours.
For forty years past he has made West Point
his summer residence, and it was for this pur
pose that he came here by a special steamer
on Thursday, the 10th instant. At this time
he was very feeble, as, indeed, he has been for
some years past. In spirit, however, he was
as cheeriu! as usual, although to his most inti
mate friends he frequently stated that he be
lieved bis end was drawing nigh. On the day
of his arrival he said to Capt. Boynton that he
had come to West Point to die. Capt. Boyn
ton replied that he hoped not ; but the Gener
al repeated his statement, by which it would
seem he had a presentiment that his mortal
career was rapidly reaching its close. Not
withstanding his feeble health, however, he
was abie to rise as usual every morning, and
went out riding every afternocn, until Sunday,
when his physician advised him to remain at
his rooms. On Saturday afternoon he not only
took his accustomed drive to Cozzsns, but de -
voted several hours in writing letters. * He
was exceedingly weak after this labor, but
apprehended no ill effects from it, although he
felt more than usually exhausted. During the
night he slept soundly, and in the morning
seemed to be much refreshed; but be kept his
bed for most of the day, in obedience with the
wish of his physician, assistant surgeon of the
post, Dr. Marsh. On Monday, his daughter, Mrs.
Hoyt, who came upon a visit from the city on
Saturday, returned to New York, leaving her
father, as she supposed, on a fair way to re
covery. He was in excellent spirits; and
atthoagh he felt assured that the end was nigh,
he did not apprehend that death was then stand.,
ing by the bedside, ready at any moment
to give the fatal blow. During Monday night
he experienced a chill, but the doctor thought
it would pass est in the ordinary manner, and
that no immediately unfavorable result would
come of it. This, however, did not prove to
be the case. From that time until his lips were
closed forever he uttered but a few words
Even this fact did not create any alarm amoDg
the officers of the post, the General had ex
perienced so many attacks of illness during
his sojourns at this place periodically. At 9
o’clock this morniDg, be was known to be very
ill, but although he died at 11:5 o’clock, it was
not until 10:45 that ifc became evident that
death was very near. At this time the chap
lain of the post, the Rev. J. A. French, was
sent for, and immediately hurried to the bed
side of the dying man. Gen. Scott was unable to
speak a word, but signified by look and motion
that he was conscious that he was soon to die.
The Chaplain took his hand, and asked him
several questions, which were answered by a
slight pressure, which conveyed'to those pres
ent the assurance that the dying chieftain was
resigned to hiß fate, was ready to die like a
soldier, a Christian and a man. Rev. Mr.
French then solemnized the last sacramental
offices, and while he was giving utterance to a
prayer the spirit of General Winfield Scott took
its flight. Besides the Chaplain, there were
present at the time, General G. W. Collum,
Superintendent of the Military Academy ; As
sistant Surgeon Marsh, and the General’s body
servant. The intelligence of the death of Gen
eral Scott was at once communicated to the
garrison of regulars stationed here and also to
the cadets. The regular business of the place
was suspended, and the flavs were lowered to
half staff. General Cullum at once telegraph
ed to Secretary Stanton and General Grant, at
Washington, for instructions, and in the eve
ning received a telegram from each of those
officers, both of whom expressed their sorrow
at the loss of so great a man. General Grant
signified his intention to be present at the fu
neral, and Mr. Stanton requested to be inform
ed as to the arrangements to be made for the
obsequies. A guard of honor was placed in
charge of the remains, and was on duty during
the afternoon and night. This consisted of the
officers of the highest rank at the garrison.
Arrangements were made tor holding the fu
neral in the chapel on the post at. 1 o’clock on
the afternooH of Friday.
A correspondent further says that General
Scott, about twenty five minutes before his
derth, addressed his hoßtler, Allen, saying,
“James, how is tbe horse?’’ “He is well,
General.’’ “Take care of him, James,” and
that these were the last intelligible words he
uttered.
The Colton crop.
In March last Messrs. Addy, Hull & Cos., of
this city, addressed circulars to all the post
office towns in the cotton growing regions,
soliciting information In regard to the growing
crops. From the returns received they make
up their estimate of the probable production of'
this season, and from the extent and variety
of the sources of their information, the estimate
is entitled to great consideration But we most
not forget, as intimated yesterday, that these
sources of information are interested iu crying
down the crop. The following is the material
portion of their circular :
“The accounts are somewhat variable. Each
correspondent has furnished a statement of the
particular locality represented, and being con
fined to a section with which he is tolerably
familiar, makes them the more reliable. Our
conclusions are based upon a careful review of
the whole.
In some sections the freedmen, or laboring
class, are represented chiefly as indolent, lazy
aud unreliable, violating their contracts when
made, shifting from place to place, and con
gregating in villages and cities.
From others \ve have more favorable ac
counts, and the freedmen, we are informed
(with some unimportant exceptions) are mani
festing a disposition to fulfill their agreements,
cheerfully performing their usual amount of
labor in the field. Some have leased portions
of a plantation, and have an interest in the
crop.
It- is concurred in very generally, that the
fo-nale portion decline to work in the .field
This, if persisted in, will be a more serious loss
during the season of picking than at present.
The estimates furnished by our correspon
dents of the number of acres under cultivation
this year as compared with 1860, or previous
to the war, are variable. With very few and
comparatively trifling exceptions there is a
falling off, averaging about This
fact is attributed to want of capital, scarcity of
labor, lick of food, scarcity of teams and im
plements, the destruction of fences, and im«
poverished, unsettled and disorganized state of
the country.
_We find, also, as we predicted in a former
circular, that comparatively few purchases
have been made by Northern capitalists. The
season was too far advanced and the time for
preparation too limited to accomplish much in
this respect.
Before approximating an estimate of the
crop for 1866. we will revert to the statistics
ior several years prior to the late war, and give
our figures for the present stocK on hand.
For six years—lßso to 1855 inclusive—the
average production was 2,917,833 bales.
From 1856 to 1860 inclusive (five years), the
average yield is 3,620,800 bales. The largest
crop ever produced was in 1860, and is set
down at 4,670,000 bales.
The total number of bales produced from
1861 to 1865, inclusive, is estimated at 5,500,-
000 bales.
Tne receipts at all ports, siuce the close of
the war, is 2,278,000 bales.
The estimated stock now in poit and on
shipboard is 418,000 bales. The number of
bales held in the interior, or in transitu, we set
down at 268,000 bales.
The total available stock in this country is
computed at 686,000 bales.
From our advices and public sources of in
lormation, we set down as the maximum for
the iccoming crop 1,700,000 bales
We are ot opinion that there is less land un
der cotton cultivation than is generally sup
posed. In a very few localities it is represents
ed that about the same number of acres will
be cultivated as previous to the war, but these
are rare exceptions. If, when there was no
lack of labor, teams, capital, implements or
seed, and no general discouragements such as
are conceded now exist, less than fi7e million
bales were produced, it is aktn to folly to ex
pect over 1,500,000 to 1,700,000 bales the
present season, admitting that henceforth, to
the close, planters are favored in ail respects.
We have duly considered and allowed full
weight to the fact, that many of the poorer
crass and freedmen have leased lands, or work
them on shares. Also, that some of the States
were comparatively exempt from the ravages
of war, (especially Florida and Texas) and
were consequently better prepared for tfllino’
and planting. We cannot, however, ignore the
statements of a large majority of our corres
pondents, who aseert that in counties where
ti.ty to two hundred thousand acres were for
merly planted T aae*fourth, one-half, and rarely
tnree-foartha of the quantity is under cultiva
tion now.
With scarcely a single exception, alack of
capital is mentioned as an obstacle in the way
of successful tillage.
Considering the extent of damage caused by
ovettbw in the Mississippi, Red river and other
regions, and the delay and damage by plant
ing defective seed, together with unfavorable
weather in the early part of the season, we
deem our estimate extremely liberal.—Cincin
