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. v. 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. , VIII 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 la spirit, uot in letter,) 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. x Tho winter's shaw, the birken shaw,|| The gowansli brightly springing, The murky night, the rosy light, The laverocks oo gaily singing.

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 him in his happiest style. Seventeen young gentlemen entered the lists as contestants for the crown to be placed upon the Queeu ot Love aud Beauty. These were ; Chevalier Bayard, W. O. Elliott. Roh Hoy. Austin Peay. Raymond Deporrldl, Wm. McGurne. Louis Campedor, Beek Huckner. Thaddeus of Warsaw, Henry Herndon. A Scot cavalier, Fisher Merritt. Hiawatha, Leo Mills. Black Prince, Montgomery Merritt. Roderick Dhu, Wm. Small. Knight of the Fallen Banner, J. T. Aliens worth. Sir Walter Relelgh, J. 0. Harris. Knight of the Poplar Hill, M. M. Carroll. Knight of Snowden, H A. Young. Kitt Lee, J. M. Bourne. Sue Mundy, Geo. McDaniel. Swedish Kuigbt, F. Hord Knight ot the Silver Moon, T. S. Young. The contest continued with great spirit for some hours, and was dually narrowed down to tie between the Chevalier Bayard and the Swedish Kuigbt, resulting in the success of the former, amid the wild plaudits of the multitude. A splendid bouquet was presented to the Knight of the Conquered Banner by the ladies, as a token of sympathy and admiration. A splendid dotal wreath, garnitured with jewels, was then presented to Captain Elliot, who, through Gen. Williams, crowned Miss Mollie Boyd, of Clarksville, Queen of Love and Beauty. A splendid and sumptuously prepared din ner followed; after which the' festivities were resumed. For the most graceful equestrianism, there were twenty-two contestants. Buckner, of Christian county, Ky., who met with a serious accident in the previous contest, was declared the victor. In the saber exercises, Wm. E. McGuire was successful. In the boy tilting match, George Kert was victorious, receiving a superb saddle. In the ladies’ ring, Miss Sallie Crozier suc ceeded, after a severe contest. The jockey race was very spirited, Austin Peay winning the silver spur. The day passed without an accident to mar the perfect enjoyment of all. There wae over twelve thousand persons present, and all re tired perfectly delighted witn the sports of the day, the beauty of the ladies and the hospital ity of the Tennesseeans.

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. Geobgs Stoneman, Major General Commending. Memphis. Tens., May 18,1866. To Lieutenant General Grant : I have the honor to report that it appears upon investigation by the commission that there were killed outright, during the recent riots at Memphis, twenty four negroes, eight of whom were discharged soldiers.

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 nati Gazette.
