Not a day dawns, but to herald into notice some strange invention. Revolution is the word that qualifies the world’s action. Profiting by the lessons of tbe part, the people are, with rapid strides, moving forward and onward, ' turning neitiicr to tho right hand or the left. In the pursuit of whatever is attainable. The much leery that propels steamers over the bosoms of our rivers and lakes, is made, at the satno time, to break the monotony of travel by means of music from the calliope. It has been arranged that travelers on railroads can retire at night in sloepiug cars, and dream the hours away while the Iron Horse rushes madly on to his destination. For a number of years that band of real, true heroes—the Firemen of America—have undergone great fatigue and suffered much in running and working with hand engin e. These are fast giving place to steamers, and instead of men being required to draw them, horses aro used, bo that tho la bors of firemen aro greatly lessened. Mon are growing more and more independent each day they live. Adventure seems to control tbe action of almost every one. There are cortain men and women who are so constituted as to be able to reap happiness and to onjuy the scoues of nature, whether on land or water, only when they are alone, and, to this end, we find Borno who have already’exhibited temerity enough to essay the passage of tho Atlantic in a small boat that would most likely bo mo tneutarily Uasbed to pieces, in even a modere ately rough sea. Then there are those who, not content with having the world at their command, so far as a desire to explore and wonder over is concsrned, are constantly hatching out somo new devise, making hazardous experiments, In the hope of appropriating to themselves a sure means of soaring aloft, as do the lark and eagle. This sublunary sphere is too poor in charms for them. They would court an evening’s ride in a strata of atmosphere, not so far removed from the Silver Urn, and twinkling stars. In New York, another step forward has late ly been taken. To keep line horses does not appear to be desirable, therefore a substitute for them has been brought into use. On tho nfternoou of the 12th, tho papers, say, there appeared on Broadway, much to tho astonish ment of the Gothamites, a vehicle propelled by steam. Tho carriage was about eight or tea feet in length; with iron wheels, aud had two seats lengthwise, with comfortable cushions and backs. It was occupied by half a dozen men, ami was operated by one nmu, who acta both as engineer and guide. There was very little noise, and nothing to denote its speciality ex cept the absence of horses and a small Bmoke stack, about a foot oigh, at the forward end. The stack resembled an ordinary stove pipe- Tho carriage was turned into Grand street with apparent ease, and that street being les3 ob structed by vehicles than Broadway, it wa ß driven at tbo average speed of a horse-car. From this, ono would suppose that horses are to be laid on the shelf. Salaries. There is no class of men, who are more fre quently called upon to exercise charity, and to console with those who may have fallen vic tims to the changes of fortune, than Ministers of the Gospel ; none are required to make, as a general rule, greater sacrifices, and none receive less material reward for their labor. Au exchange has well said, few city Pastors receive as liberal a salary as principal sales men in a wboiesalo house, or as first class clerks or cashiers. Fewer still are expected to receive the income of a well-to-do lawyer or physician, to say nothing of the merchant. Now is this right ? Do business men consider It fair f Do the men of the World, who kuow the cost of living in cities, realize the tenden cies to embarrassment that surrounds the Min ister ? He may not complain, yet his appre hensions of finance “narrows" may b<J a con stant source of annoyance to his mind. He would preach with power iu proportion with his freedom from debt. Village pastors seldom receive as much as au Engineer on a locomotive, or foreman iu a saw mill, and, yet preacher and pious as he is, he must uress himself, feed and clothe his tamily. He must ever dress genteely ; must ever have extras for his table at baud on a mgmeui's notice ; he must be well. supplied with books and papers ; he must have little moneys lor dis tressed solicitors who visit him almost daily, or else be colled hypocritical and un feeling; he must be ready to speak, write, ami talk on all occasions, urn? pay his own traveling expenses. How can he do all this without a liberal salary ? A narrow, mean policy has driven many a usciul man from the pulpit iuto secular life, aud hindered many a bright aud promising rniud from entering the slC red professi on. One tenth of the unnoticed wasting* and luxuries of any congregation, added to the minister’s salary, would not only make him happy- and free, but lift him from threes si:y of becoming the victim of hard sought donations A minister should be compensated for his time, toil, and talent, the same as any olher man, by a stated salary. It is tbe religion* duty of a Parlor to visit the sick, bury the dead, minister to the wants of the suffering. This duty ; discharges cheerfully and heartily. But docs any person ever think of the fatigue he undergoes id making these daily rounds, compelled as he is to divide the day into hours of study and charitable errands-going ? Does any on eever think to supply him with shoes, that his feet be not bare, and thet he resemble not a beggar ? It will be remembered that last winter the matrimonial mania took hold of a great many young men and maidens in t .is vicinity. Hardly an evening passed, that one or more couples were not married. It was often re marked, by outsiders : The preachers and or - dinary are doing a thriving businesi thi3 win ter ? On an occasion, daring that time, one of our most woithy and brilliant Augusta Preachers was met by a gentleman, who congratulated bim upon the good time that had come, say ing : “My dear sir, you must be getting rich !” “Why so?’’ queried the Minister. “Every night there is a wedding and I no tice that you have been called upon to officiate at tho majority of them. The funds must largo”—responded the gentleman “Not so,’’ said the Preacher. “They very often say to me, after the ceremony is over • Well, Mr. , I’m very much obliged to you ; and that is all that is said oV done.” The question is, can a man support a family on : I’m obliged to you? State Items. The late cold snap had a diieterious effect upon tho cotton crop in Burke. Corn was not much affected. . The Telegraph office at Savannah has been removed to tho Express building, cornor of Bay and Drayton streots. Last Wednesday night a negro man entered the residence of a Mr. Stanuer, in jSavannah,’ and robbed him of S4OO. More rain has fallen in the neighborhood o Rome during the month of June than has ever been known. Tnere has seldom been a better prospect for corn. The Courier says the race between the cotton and grass fs “nick and nick, ’’ .and It is hard to toll which will como iu ahead. It is now universally conceded that the wheat crop is a fair one, in this section of Georgia and Alabama, coming fully up to an average yield. It is now nearly all saved. The oat crop is also excelloDf; except in some placos whoro it was winter killed. The Rome Courier says that some three weeks since, two negroes went at night to tho residence of an unprotected widow woman, in Polk county, and by their united strength using extreme violence, outraged her person. Next day one of these fiends named West, and formerly the proparty of Mr. Buchanan, was ar rosted, underwent a preliminary trial, and was sentenced to be committed to jail for trial at the next term of tho Superior Court. A guard started off with bim, but, as is alleged, he attempting to escape, was shot to death, some ten or twelve shots taking effect in his person from the pistols of tho guard ; his body was thrown in tho creek. The other boy, formerly tho proproty of Mr. Hightower,;has not yet boon arrested. These aro the facts in regard to this affair as we get them from reliable citizens of that county. The account, as given in the Cherokeo Ad vertiser, we are assured is entirely erroneous, no such brutal barbarity, as therein alleged, having been practiced The Italian War Song. The following is the first stanza of the fa mous war hymn just composed in Italy by M. Brcfferio, at the request of the Minister of War, and sung on every popular occasion : Dollo sapde il fiero lampo Troni e popoli sveglio 1 Italian!, all campo ! al campo 1 E la madre cbe chiamo. Su cerriamo in battuglioul, Frail rimbonbo dei cannonni, L’o mo in testa. In an Pacciar, Viva il Re dall’ Aipi al mar, Dali Eridnano al Ticino. Dall Sicano all Tcsco suol! Korgi, opopolo Latino, Sorgi, e vinci Iddio lo vuol. [Let the bright flash of tho 6word awake tho throne and the people. Italians !to the battle field ! Your mother country calls you ! Form your battalions to the roar of the cannon, hel met on head, and steel in hand. Long live the King of the Alps to the sea ; of the Po to the Ttcino; of tbe soil of Sicily to the land of Tuscany, Arise, oh Latin people ! Arise and conquer! It is God who wills it]. St. Louis is excited over the reported mur der of Peter Smith, a well known butcher of that city. It is said that Smith, with a large amount of money in his possession, left Car ondelet late Sunday afternoon, accompanied by two of his mon, on a cattle buying trip. It is stated that he crossed the ferry at the upper part of that city, and hud proceeded but a mile or so from the laudiug when he was set upon and killed. One of the man with him was also kHled, and the other made his escape. A petition from twenty one thousand edu cated Bengalese, praying for the suppression of I’oligamy in Bengal, has beon presented to the Lieutenant Governor of that Presidency. Five different plans have been furnished for anew Academy of Music in New York. The directors have SIBO,OOO on haud. They intend to expend $200,000 on the structure. It will be completed by tho 31st of October and Mr. Morerfzek has been informed that he can take possession immediately after that date. Death at the Communion Table —The Sy- Syracuse, N. Y., Journal relates the particulars of the death of an aged lady, which occurred in that, city a few Sabbaths ago. Mrs. Sarah Higgins, aged 78 years, went to the Park Presbyterian Church, attended by her daughter. She took her seat, aud while the pastor was reading the opening him, “Rock of Ages,” Mrs. H. fell dead from her scat, without a moment’s warning that tho messenger was near. The Attorney General of the United States has recently given the following opinion : “Let ters on file with the heads of departments are privileged communications unlesss their publi cation has been authorized; no copies should bo re-ebpied except at private request, aud the production of tho originals cannot bo com pelled in a suit between individuals. It has been ruled that such communications can not be made the foundation of an action for libel. Then I think the head of a department ts bonnd not to produce a paper on file in this office.” A pleasure party at Jacksonville, Fla., was turned into a scene ol weeping last week, by the capsiziDg of a boat, and the drowning of five ladies and one gentleman. Nothing can show more strongly the adap - lability of the Americans for all pursuits than tho ease with which all the men of note in the late war have elided irom military mto commercial life, and the same may be said of the great body of the soldiers on each side.

John Andrews, Esq., Bayou Goula, Ibsrviile parish, La : My respected Old Master : I address you thus for the reason that it is respectful, and’ because you were ever kind to me. as well as all those who were your termer staves. Freedom has its advantages and disadvantages, and while we would act go back into slavery, we are not un mindful of the many happy days we have speut at our old home, nor are we ungrateful for the many kindnesses we have received at your hand both in sickness and health. With these preliminary remarks I acknowledge the receipt of your kind letter, through CoioDel A. C. Me* Keen, and take the greatest satisfaction and pleasure in answering it, and I thank you for your kind offer, and remembrance of us all. Freedom has not turned me a foci, nor has it caused me to entertain prejudices like many o’hers. I feel that I shall ever conduct raysdf so as to have the esteem and respect of ail. We must, if we expect to get along well, and make a support lor ourselves and families, command the good will of those out of whom, and through whom, we are to make money. I have heard from my father last Sunday. He and family are still at the same place and sends his kind remembrance to you and the folks. Hois veiy anxious to go back homo this fall. Hib contract binds him until that time, I wil! go and see ail our folks and take your latter with me, and hive it read to them. I think all will return if I can see them. It will require Bornetime for me to-sec them, aud the expense of traveling would be something. If you deem it right and for you? interest that I should go aud see them all, I wili do so; but you must pay my traveling expenses. I will lose the timo. As for myself, I am ready to come back at any time, having made no en gagements, but I could not think of coming and leaving tbe balance behind. lam still living in Galveston and doing well —have sev eral hand3 at work with me and for me, but at the same timo there ib no place like home.. I am sorry to hear tlpjt you are suffering with rheumatism. I hope it won’t last long. We all wish to be remembered to Misses Emily, Virginia. Angela and Ktty. I wish to Inquire about Wesley. Tell him, if you know any thing about bim, that his wife (sister Emily) and three children are well. Tell Aleck Mec kin lam glad he is at home, and that he did not turn fool like a great many others His brother Jack’s wife (Mary) and son Jack are both well. I don’t think we all will have any difficulty in getting back. If any of them should lack anything I will help them over, and we will arrange that between us. I don’t know wheth. er you know of tho death of my wife. She died last October. Sbo died happy, and has gone from this world of trouble to heaven. I would liko to hear trom William Talbert. Ask him to let me know about my things iu my house, which would save mo the expense of bringing many things. Tell John Williams his four sops are well; also his brother Sam Tell Mother Jenny that her grandson Abraham is married. Tel! Aunt Polly her son Coffey is married. Tell Mr. Allen that, Thos. Wood is also married. Now in conclusion, all I have to say is, that if you wont mo for any special purposo before we all get ready to move back, all you have to do. is to write me, and 1 will come to you. In writing to me, direct your letters to Coloao! A. O. McKeen as you did be fore, and I wili he certain to get it. This loaves me well, and I hope will find you and all the family, white and black, well and hap py. Your devoted friend, Ben. Bctler. P.

It was, it is simply a simple tale, and tells of the mistakes of life as ’twere. The Gormans tel! their troubles to me as chloroform is poured on a handkerchief to relieve tho patient. One day while standing patting the neck of “Kitty,” my running mare, an honest Teuton, who had seen service in the war, came up and said : “Ah, mynheer Bumroy, you here ?” “Yaw, mynheer Schwipes, I hear.” “S o-o !

Und I tell my vrow she do makes vater mit her eyes, for I go long mit Shenrel Shirts, and of course I coomes back.— You see, Mr Bumroy, I knows who to go mit. 1 would go mit Siegel, but Siegel gets his back up too much, and is not careful who he don’t fight mit. Und I would go mit Butier, but my share of de silver would be sherman silver, und dat is dot so goot.

In the most elegant part of the cemetery a} Ringgold, in Georgia, there is the following in scription on a monument : “Sacred to the memory of Tennessee Thomp • son.

The House took up the bill to increase the army, and pending a vote on the 27th section, « at 4,30 P. M.. adjourned The Purls ■'Aparidon. The P<.:ii correspondent of the Boston Post, under date May 30, writes : J tat p; eat ah Paris is wild on the sub ject c! great exhibition o! 1867. Napoleon is evidently determined that uo labor or ex pense .-.ha'i be spar ito make it the grandest of all mod- r:i sen itions and a sort of culmin** ting triumph of hie reign. He is favorably situated tor suciesi as every one will admit, both from uis power, bis talents, and the na tional resources th it he his at his command. - In spite of-tie inparent ndvoiity of this great nation .nd .heir extreme devotion to the pleasure o: ihe moment, there is always an under cur. c-l'- , d-.p and strong, of serious labor and w~a directed energy Its profes nen, its military leaders, its invent;- . and its; artisans, heve| always worked with unlimited zeal, both with hands and brains, for the good of their country, and m - result of their efforts, especially in late years, ha; been enormous. Under their re public, so ca.ls their capital was filtered away in a thousand profitless works, but Napoleon has economiz and it. and, by the strong pressure of imperial power, given it a condjmnation. a strength and an impetus such as the nation has never before : een. The truth of this will be clearly shown at the coming exposition. From present appearances it will be a grand success, and most worthily represent tbe industrial re sources of the world. It will be to Napoleon one ot the crowning glories of his reign, one of those victories of peace with which even mill military despots, if they j>e wise, delight to adorn their empires. Gigantic as are the various works connected with the comtDg exhibition, they are all pro ceeding with great rapidity. Many journals, for want of more authentic information, have started rumors that the necessary arrangements for the opening iu April, 1867, cannot be com pleted. If they could only seethe progress those are makiug, they would doubtless make their editorial comments in a different tone. The enormous building is ival't advanced and the metallic root a portion of it is already in place. The general outline can be easily made oat, and the surrounding gardens are partly designated. The laborers work from dawn to twilight. Sunday included, and their number equals that of a small army. Each day there i3 promised some new addition to the splendors of this ’expose of the universe.— Among other attractions will be an enormous stable, in the Russian style, to accommodate five hundred horses. It will be surrounded with Muscovite and Caucasian houses one of which wili be oecu pied by a restaurant manag ed by an officer from Bt, Betersburg. Here one can feast ala russe iu such a barbaric splendor as his purse will command. He can flirt with Charlotte; hob-a-nob with Don Cos sacks, and treat them to caviare aud candles; ogie the dark eyed beauties of the Caucasus, and in u post prandial snooze dream of Lord Byron anu Mazeppa. Christianity will also be represented at this exhibition, and paradoxical as it may appear, probably, though not so much from intrinsic merits, as because M. do Chateaubriand took so much pains to write it up. A space of two hundred square metres has been granted to the Protestant missiona ries, in which wdl be .shown various particles and productions sent home by those devoted laborers fr> in ihe islands of the ocean, from the interior of Asia, from the trackless wilds of Africa, and wherever effie their Christian zeal has kd them to save the souls of men. Every day adds some fre3h and piquant at traction, and Parisians roaliy seem to be get ting quite in tana in the matter. A company is actually organizing here to cover the Palais Royal with glass, and establish there a vast restaurant, where sixty thousand persons could dine perjjday, at prices varying' from forty to fifty sous per head. At the end of the exhi bition the company propose to place everything in its former position, soli the oid glass and china at auction, pay off the garcons and gar counottes, settle with tho butcher and baker, give a grand dinner of funeral baked meats to the shareholders, and then divide the receipts. As to tho latter they have made very nice cal culations. The receipts for five months are to reach twenty nine millions and some odd francs and the profits throe millions, with enongh over to make a handsome present to their saa guino secretary, who made these flattering esti mates. The originators of this scheme don’t look upon it as a joke, but the wits of Paris do, and have already lampooned it into shreds. It is said that tho company propose to use the basin of the grand fountain in which to boil their potatoes, and one of tho Imperial dry docks to cook their soup; that they have bought tbe forest of the Arienues to cut up into toothpicks, &c , &c., all of which will give one an exceijent idea of the high seasoned hash of the grave, the gay, the lively, and the severe that go to form the Parisian’s daily food. Mexico. A letter to the New York 'World, dated City of Mexico, May, says : The problem of Imperalism' is now to be quickly solved in Mexico. Maximilian trusts himself without reserve to the Mexican people, upon whose support he is confident he may rely. Should the opposition of the Liberals change from its present desultory, guerrilla form, into anything like a -formidable, organized character, he will himself take the field and personally direct the operations for sustaining the laws and protecting the people against threatened anarchy. With this programme, it is hardly possible that the young Emperor can fail to in crease this prestige among a people always ready to applaud that personal courage in which the innumerable political leaders of Mexico have been generally so dificient. Maximilian has good military abilities, and under any circumstances would not retire from Mexico without making a desperate effort for the support of his government. Those who imagine that he has one foot out of the country and is ready to quit when the French depart, know very little about the obstinacy and de termination of the man. Mexico has been in a state of chronic revolution for half a century. No ruler, of whatever stripe, ever maintained himself there without the aid of the military ; and to be in power, no matter how obtained, was enough to raise a factious opposition—not of the kind which generally expends itself in harmless streams of ink, as in the United States, but at the sword’s point and the cannon’s mouth. Thus it is no remarkable thing that Maximilian should find opponents ; but it is safe to say that his government is to-day the most popular, as it is the widest extended and generally recognized this country has ever had, and it may not be generally known that the empire has already lasted nearly twice as long as any other administration since the days of Iturbide —that is, for more than forty years. ‘ The National Exprets,” aud the “National Express and Transportation” Company. Our attention has been called to the follow ing circular over the signature of “J, E. John ston, President,” and to which we invite the attention of merchants and business men of our city : “Attention is particularly called to the title of this Company, and to the fact that goods, &c., ordered to be sent by it from New York, are frequently shipped in direct violation of instructions, by the National Express Compa ny, which is a New York Company, and runs exclusively over Northern routes; it receives goods intended for this Company, and sends them South and We3t by the Adams Express.” As an act of justice to the “National Express and Transportation Company,” over which Gen. J. E. Johnston presides as President, we publish the foregoing. The reader will per ceive that the “National Express Company” is a New York Company, running exclusively over Northern routes, while the “National Ex press and Transportation Company” is what its name purports—hence, ail merchants, or other parties South, who desire to patronize the last named company, should be careful in direct ing theii shipments, not to omit to designate it according to its fall title, “National Express and Transportation Company,” for the reasons assigned in the circular of its President. Par ties North who have been instructed to ship by the “National Express Company” may either innocently or through design do injustice to the “National Express and Transportation’ Company,” when the small capital words are omitted in the directions giveD by the mer chant* or other person, who orders the ship ment and who designs to patronize the last named Express institution.— Atlanta Intelligen cer. 3'jtUated Bank notes.

TELEGRAPHIC. , FiiO.ll WAxRUfiTOS. [Special dispatch to the Chronicle & Sentinel.] French Withdrawal from Mexico. Washington, June 22. The President also transmitted to Congress a dispatch from Bigelow, the American Minister at Paris, to Seward, saying that the French Minister, of Foreign Affairs had given the most so'emc assurances of Napoleon’s fidelity to his pledge to withdraw the French troops from Mexico. This is regarded here as sealing the fate of the Mexican Empire. Message from ibe President. A Bombshell in tbc Radical Camp. Washington, June 22. The President sent into Congress to-day the following message, in relation to the recon. struction amendment to .the Constitution: 2c the Senate and House of Representatives: I submit to Congress a report of the Secre tary of State to whom was referred a concur rent resolution of tho 18th inst., respecting a submission to the Legislatures of the States of an additional article to the Constitution of the United States. It' will be seen from this report that the Secretary of State had on the 16th inst., transmitted to the Beveral States, certified copies of the joint resolution passed on the 13th insfi, proposing an amendment to the Constitution. Even in ordinary times any question of amending the Constitntioa must be justly ro gardod as of paramount importance. This importance is, at the present time en hanced'by the fact that the joint resolution was not submitted by the Houses for the approval of the President and that of the thirty-six States, which constituted the Union, eleven are excluded from representation in either House of Congress, although with the Bingle exception of Texas, they have been entirely restored to all their functions as States, in conformity with the organic law of the land, and have ap oeared at the National Capital, by Senators, and have been refused admission to the vacant seats. Nor have the sovereign people of the nation been afforded an opportunity of ex pressing their views upon the important ques tion which the amendment involves. Grave doubts, therefore, may justly and naturally arise as to whether the actiou of Congress is in harmony with tbs sentiments of the people, and whether in Euch an issue they should be called upon by Congress to decide upon the ratification of the proposed amendment, wav ing the question as to the constitutional validi ty of the proceedings of Congress upon the joiut resolution proposing the amendment, or a3 to the merits of the articles which it sub mits through the Executive Department to tho Legislatures of the States. I deem it proper to observe that the steps taken by Secre tary of State, as detailed in the accom panying report, are to bo considered as purely ministerial, and in no sense whatever com mitting the Executive to an approval or a re commendation,of the amendment to the State Legislatures. As to the people, on the contra ry, a proper appreciation of the letter and spirit of the Constitution as well as of the interest of national order and harmony and union, and a due deference for an enlightened public judg ment, may at this time well suggest a doubt, whether any amendment to the Constitution ought to bo proposed by Congress and pressed upon the Legislatures of the several States for final decision, until after the admission of such ioyal Senators and Representatives of the now unrepresented States as have been or may here after be chosen, in conformity to tho Constitu tion and laws of the United States. (Signed) Andrew Johnson. Accompanying the messege of the President is the report oi the Secretary of State, that he had, in conformity with the proceedings which had been adopted by him in 1865, in regard to the proposed, and afterwards adopted. Con gressional amendment to tho Constitution of the United States, concerning the prohibition of slavery, transmitted certified copies of the joint resolution to the Governors of the several States, together with a certificate and circular letter. Congressional. Washington, June 23. In the Senate a joint resolution was passed providing for an official history of the war, and authorizes the Secretary of War to appoint some competent person to wjite it, at salary not exceeding $2,500 per year. The tex biil was considered, and various amendments offered and adopted, Mr. Morgan delivered a eulogy on Senator Humphreys, recently deceased, after which the Senate adjourned. In the House Waehburne presented a letter from the Secretary of the Treasury on the sub l * ject of the apprehended introduction of reinder pest by means of imported bones. Referred to the Committee on Commerce. Mr. Darling, of New York, and others ad dressed the House in speeches of condolence on the death of Hon. James Humphreys, of New York. The customary resolutions of re spect were adopted and the House then ad journed. From Canada. Ottawa, June 23. la the Canadian Parliament, Galt moved for the indemnification of the Government for ex penses incurred during the recent Fenian troubles. Several members of the Government party advocated the measure, wheß Mr. Cham bers, of Brockville, obtained the floor and spoke againßt it. a He said that Canada could not support troops enough to resist the United States. A thousand Fenians were a very different matter from thirty-five millions of Americans. He also called for an investigation of the conduct of some of the commanders of the provincial troops duriDg the late .trouble, and denounced the management of the volunteers as a blun der. Mr. Chambers was continually interrupted and hissed; the uproar becoming so great at times as to drown his remarks. He was re plied to by Mr. Darcy McGee, and the motion of Mr. Galt was adopted.

The past week has been umDuaily dull, and we have few changes to report in the price of any loading staples. The wheat crop in several of ;ke counfit.% along the Georgia Railroad is reported to turn out lighter than was expected. The new crop is beginning to come in, but prices may not be cor,skit red settled. It is be lieved that the unfavorable reports from the Western crop will cause rates here for all breadstuff's to rule high. The decline in gold, though not so sudden ns its advance, has tended to unsettle prices, and though price 8 do not as closely iollow gold as in larger mar kets, they are Influenced by fluctuations in the standard of values to such a degree as to ren der prices quite irregular. The cool weather of the early part of the week was not favorable for cotton, but crops are now growing rapidly. It should be borne in mind that our quota tions represent wholesale rates. Planters aud cotntry merchants in buying small bills will find prices a Ehadorin advance of quotations. FINANCIAL—The decline in gold in New York has diminished tke demand here, and operations are limited. Brokers are paying 145, and selling at 150. Some are holding at 152. Silver 135, selling at 140.
