EXCEEDS THE BEST EXPECTATIONS OF THE SOUTH. The success of the Philadelphia Con vention has exceeded the most extravagant expectations of those whoadvocated South ern representation therein. Casting aside every feeling of selfishness, and desirous only of setting on foot a party which shall drive from the Capital at Washington the speculators, petty politicians, miserable fanatics and cunning demagogues who have well nigh ruined the country, the members of the Convention, of every party, have sacrificed some of their prejudices for the sake of promoting tho general welfare. First —Messrs. Wood and Vallandigham declined to go in the Convention because they were told that their presence in it would be used as a means of destroying the influence of the body. * * * * Secondly —The war democrats and the republicans, actuated by the same desire for harmony, consented to make no objec tion to the admission of any Southern dele gate, however objectionable to them his re cord . however conspicuous a part ho acted in the late war, oi however bitter lie may .vo been during the war in Kis denuncia tion of Northern men and measures. * * Thirdly —The greatest sacrifice was made by the Southern representatives in voting for, or even agreeing to, the adop tion of the resolutions passed by the .Con vention. We have as yet only a telegraphic synopsis of the resolutions, yet we nave enough of their contents to enable us to know that it must have been a power ful motive that could have induced Southern men of true Sbuthorn feelings and prejudices to acquiesce in their adop tion ; or, rather, to speak more correctly, in the adoption of some of them. — llich nioiid Ihspateh, August 17. Obtaining Information from 111 chin end ; During the War. The Richmond correspondent of the New j York Times imparts the followinginfoi-ma- | tion relative to tho manner in which im- j portant intelligence was conveyed from | Richmond to the Federal lines during the j war. The Richmond It hig admits that ; the testimony ol Gen. Lee did leak out and j did get to Washington, but whether in the manner indicated by the Times’ corees pondent, is not certain. The version of the correspondent of the Times is as follows: “The country will remember that during the winter our Government obtained assu rance of the hopelessness of the Confede rate cause, by i oming into possession of the testimony of General Lee 1 eforea com mittee of the Confederate Congress, which was never reported to the House, except in secret session, if at all. A full history of the manner in which tho Government obtained that information would be more interesting than any romance, but it is too soon yet to do more than outline it. The evidence of General Lee was taken late in the winter by this committee, anil long before the committee had determined what course they should pur- sue—almost before the ink was dry upon their notes —the entire statement of the Rebel General, word for word, was in the possession of Mr. Lincoln at \\ usliington. in the room where the committee met was a closet, and from that- closet, immediately after their adjournment, came the price- j less information. Outside the house it at once changed hands, and a second party j walked leisurely through the streets ot j Richmond with'it, until upon the environs j ho encountered one ot tne common country | carts of this section proceeding with the half of a newlv killed beef toward the rebel j lines in Butler's front. No communion- j tion that the most lynx-eyed could perceive passed between the man and the cart, but the former gradually changed Ins direction . and was soon walking back in the direction : whence he had come. Lhe cart went on, reached and passed through the Rebel j camps without molestation and reached the pickets, where it halted as a matter ot j course. The beef was destined tor the house of a planter just beyond the Rebel | lines and in plain sight ot their outposts, and about equal distance between them i and our own outposts. 1 hose explanations made and a careless search ot the cart made j by the Rebel sentry, that is a look into it, tne cart proceeded on its way. Just as it neared the house a small party ot our cav alry made a dash at it. and to the utter surprise of the Rebel pickets, who saw the whole affair, our men only hovered a mo ment around the curt, then galloped back with one more man than they came with, leaving cart and beef, and driver and mule behind him. They did not know it then, but under the beef was a man, and the man had a package, and the package con tained the statements of Gen. lice before the Committee ui Congress a tew hours before. In outline, this was how the thing was done. It may seem strange, but Lincoln and Grant knew long before many of the officials of the insurgent .government the sworn statement of their commander as to the hopelessness of further resistance. Knowing that the Government and Grant had this information explains many things in connection with the arrival within our lines of Hunter. Stephens and Campbell, at the time of the Hampton Roads con ference. which at the time were inexplica ble. The feat of obtaining this informa tion is unrivaled in the annals ot war, and gradually, as the facts come to light, it will be found that Grant had every day such particular information from the Rebel capital that he knew what Jeff. Davis was talking about each day in the most private of his conversations with his Cabinet and members of his Congress.

' The freedmen, though doing jitter than many expected, arc not as a da-s sufficiently reliable, or numerous to ; meet the country. ! The Bainbridge Argus says that an un successful attempt was made on Monday I night last, by some unknown person or j persons, city, Crop Intelligence. The caterpillar and boll-worm have made their appearance in various parts of Ala bama. # The Yieksourg Herald, of the 18th. says: “There is no doubt but the army-worm has made i- appearance in this eountv. We hoar <>f it, also, in various other sections of the State. The old adage, 'misfortunes icver f-ome single, is being verified in our general experience this year. Cotton in this Region.— The prevail ing drouth has greatly injured the crop. . the formation aud maturity of the bolls. Many planters have not yet been Lie to pick out any cotton, whereas the fields are usually white for the picking 1 1-fore the middle of August. —Cohimbm j Sun. A traveling correspondent of the New Orleans Crescent, who has been over the most fertile portions of Mississippi and Louisiana, writes that paper that there are but very few plantations which can. by any chance, make more than one fourth the j usual yield, and many places, under the ; most favorable circumstances, cannot reach . that estimate. Chops in Alabama. —The Columbus Sun publishes a jitter from Green county, Ala., which says: Instead of finding good crops of com and cotton in a land which made a thou- 1 sand pounds and upwards per acre m days, : of yore. I have seen but few * places that will average more than a bale to six acres. ; Fields in the vicinity of Montgomery, j - fine cotton, are now ul : mo-: wo-thle-s and will not this year aver- j : age a bale of cotton to ten acres. The j , country on the Alabama river, between j Montgomery and Felma. I passed.in the ; night and did not see, but parties, who I professed to know tho condition of the country, told me that the prospect was not | better than it was above Montgomery. * * * The crops between Selma and. ; Demopolis are very poor and I did not no- J ticea good field of .cotton on the road. Be- j ' tween Demopolis and Meridian they are ; ruining for the want of rain. Indeed the crops are poor all over this country, and I have not seen a single intelligent planter who estimated the present crop over a j fourth of that of 1 SGI- Ho far as the corn j is concerned, that may be pronounced a I total failure. Not one planter in fifty, so I far aW have heard, will make corn enough [ to last till next March. Crops in Southwest Georgia.— We have recently visited several counties in Southwest Georgia, and are prepared to confirm the reports of bad crops, as a gem. oral thing, in that section of the State. The cotton crop, praticpiarly, looks badly throughout the entire cotton region ; and in many places is shedding badly. We saw large fields of cotton cultivated by a com pany of Tennesseeans that are really hard ly worth picking. The corn crop in some localities is tolera bly good; but generally is bad. Crops. —The Coahomian, of.Mississippi, reports cotton suffering from too heavy rains. On the hills it is too small to gather. The Copichan reports the army worm in Clai borne county on the Mississippi, and in Lawrence county on Pearl river. In our immediate section, the drought still continues, and many of the fields of corn are hopelessly ruined. Early corn that was well cultivated will turn out a half yield perhaps—the late planting is not worth cutting in the stalk. The planting of most of the . negroes, who rented land and “went it on their own hook,” is a per- j feet failure. The}' gave the crops only one or two imperfect plowings, and even before the drought came on tho weeds and grass had choked out the sickly corn. Some of the best tracts of land in the country are a perfect waste, sheerly from neglect of culti- I vation. Great destitution must ensue, and we do not know how many of the negroes will get bread for their families during the coming winter and spring. Many white persons will be hard run to make a living. —Huntsville Independent. The Tallapoosa Enquirer has the fol lowing on the subject of the crops: “Wc have diligently inquired of tire planters of our county in regard to the corn and cotton crops, and we tire satisfied that all the rain that can fall cannot make over half a crop of corn ; and of the cotton, there cannot be a fourth of the usual pro duct,” The Commmercial says the boll-worm fly, which invaded Perry county, was de stroyed by the excessive heat, but adds: Later intelligence, including reports from the south and southeastern portion of the county, leaves no doubt on our mind that the cotton crop of Perry will fall 35 per cent, short of the promise of last month. The boll-worm and caterpillar have almost ruined some of the finest plantations in the prairie, and a well-grounded apprehension exists that not a farm in the county will escape their ravages. They are destroying everything in Greene, Sumter, Dallas and Marengo, and indeed all the counties from which we have any intelligence. The Cotton Crop of West Florida. : —We regret to learn from the Gainesville | ° ; New Era that the crop prospects in that | section arc by no means promising. It says: The late drought, followed by heavy and almost daily rains, have injured to a vast extent the prospects of the cotton crop in this section. In many fields we noticed the ground is almost covered with the dropping fruit, and in some very dry places bolls almost mature and nearly ready to open were lying thick on the beds. Several large planters, to whom we have spoken on the subject, estimate that more than* one-half of what is known as the “middle crop” will be lost. This will prove a serious loss to our planters, and will reduce the already short crop of long staple from two to five hundred bales in ; this and adjoining counties. The Port of Matamoras. The following proclamation has been de ferred for several days by the pressure on our columns: A Proclamation. Whereas, A war is existing in the Re public of Mexico, aggravated by foreign military intervention: And whereas, The United States, in ac cordance with their settled habits and pol icy, arc a neutral power in regard to the war which thus afflicts the Republic of Mexico; And whersas, It has become known that one of the belligerents in the said war, namely, the Prince Maximilian, who as serts himself to be Emperor in Mexico, has j issued a decree in regard to the port _of j Matamoras and other Mexican ports which j are in the occupation and possession of an other of the said belligerents, namely, the United States of Mexico, which decree is :in the following words: “Tlie port of Mat- j arnoras and all those of the northern fron- j ! tier which have withdrawn from their | obedience to the Government, are closed i to foreign and coasting traffic during such time as the empire >4' the law shall not bo therein reinstated. Article 2, Merchandize proceeding from said ports on arriving at any other, where the exercise of the cm ; pire is collected, shall pay the duties on im- ; portation, introduction and consumption; ! and on satisfactory proof of contravention : shall be irremissibly confiscated. Our minister of the Treasury is charged with the punctual execution of this decree. Given at Mexico, this 9th day of July, ISt)6.” And whereas.

A Committee from the Labor Convention Call on tlie President 1 -His Reply to Them. Washington. August 20.-The Commit tee appointed by the Labor Convention at Baltimore, waited on the President to-day. Mr. Hinehliffe. the spokesman, disclaimed connection with any party in a political sense, or that the movement was for politi cal power. lie urged that the eight hours per day labor movement should be legal ized, that the public lauds should be dis tributed so as to be reached by the laborers instead of capitalist-. He asked the Presi dent’s assistance to accomplish these meas urc-sfor the working men. In reply the Presi dent .-aid he was t iposed to the present sys tem of convict labor, on account of its unjust discrimination and degrading influence. lie desired to see labor elevated, and such al ways had been his position. His whole history showed that he was against a mo nopoly of the public lands. He was for shortening the hours of labor to the least number consistent with the interest of all, and the laboring men could rely upon his influence when it could be given in their behalf. They had his sympathy and best feelings in their cause. He hoped they would accomplish their objects. The Washington Republican denounces Stanton, and charges on him a partial re sponsibility of the New Orleans riot. It says that lie withheld from the President Baird's dispatch of July 28th, prior to the riot, asking for immediate instructions how to act, and notices the fact that Stanton did not even answer the dispatch.

REVIEW OF THE AUGUSTA MARRLT, FOR THE WEEK ENDING AUGUST 25TH, ISO). [lt should be borne in mind that our quotations represent wholesttleprices. Smalt bills, to Planters and others, are filled at a shade higher rates.} REMARKS.—The past week has been one of the dullest of the season. In the absence of any general demand for goods a number of leading articles have been gradually declining, and it is the general opinion that in breadstufls and provisions there will be a still farther falling off. The Commissioner of Agriculture, whose esti mates are based on statistics furnished by correspondents from all parts of the coun try, estimates the wheat crop at BMenths in quantity, and the quality is so good as to make it equal to the crop of last year. An Ohio writer estimates that the crop of 1800 will be 185,134,000 bushels, against 173,104,021 bushels in 1-00. At the average rate of increase from 1840 to 1860, which was opercenta year, atoll crop would be 225,134,- 000 bushels for IS6G. The corn crop in the West is unusually tine, and it is estimated that it will reach 1,000,000,000 bushels, against 538,792,740 bushels in 1880. The oat crop is estimated at 200,000,000 bushels, against 172,339,722 bushels in 1800. Rye, barley, and other crops give promise of more than the average yield. With peace in Europe, and a fair harvest, which re ports indicate, it is believed that the export demand will he limited, and, notwithstand ing the failure of the crops in the Gulf States, we shall see no advance, and may look for some decline in breadstuff's during the year to come. Repi rts of the crops in this section are of tho most depressing character. Corn is almost a failure. Cotton, which has im proved magically during the last few weeks, lias been injured by the late cool nights, which are regarded as presaging an early frost. Tlio reports from Alabama and Mississippi are unfavorable. The army worm has made its appearance in many places, and it does not seem possible, from all the advices at hand, that one-third of a crop can be realized anywhere east of the Mississippi. In Texas alone the crop pro mises to be an average one. FINANCIAL.—There is great scarcity of money, and loans cannot be effected for less than 14 cent, a month. Gold has been rather irregular during the week. The still further reduction of interest by the Bank of England to 7 7ft cent, has im parted increased confidence in financial circles, and caused a decline in golj in New York, whero the quotations at the close on yesterday were 148.

Strict Middling 29a... Good Middling 30a... As the week progressed, those rates wore not maintained, and on Wednesday the market came to a stand, continuing so through Thursday, when good middling cotton would not have brought over 28 cts. On Friday there was a bettor feeling, and we heard of sales at 29 cents for good mid dling. There was no general demand, and at the close on Friday the market was too irregular and dull to justify quotations. Holders are struggling hard against a further decline, but it is feared that under Uio scarcity of money buyers will have tho advantage. An early frost would pro bably turn the scale in favor of holders. DRY GOODS. —Our merchants are pre paring for the fall trade, and prices in New York are much below those of last season. The importations of dry goods have been greatly in excess of former years, especial ly in cotton fabrics. In this connection the following table from the Journal of Com merce, will be interesting: Shipments of textile fabrics, &c.,feoin Eng land to the United States for six months, ending June 30th. 1805. 180(1.

The Commissioner of Internal Revenue has just issued a circular containing im portam regulations concerning the weigh ing and marking of cotton, th./ assessment and collection of tax and the removal of cotton under bond. It recites the section of the act passed July 13. in accordance with whim the Commissioner says the places for weighing will be designated bv him from time to time. The fees for weigh ing and marking will lie fixed by u, 2 Com missioner of Internal Revenue, ‘and must in all cases, lie paid by the producer own er, or holder of the cotton for whom the work is done. In order to prevent confusion in the as sessment and collection of the tax on cot ton after the same has been weighed and marked, each Assessor is n an account with each person for whom cot ton has been weighed, similar to the ac count now kept with manufacturers of the goods produced by them monthly This account will be debited witli tlie quantity of cotton weighed and marked foreaeh' pro ducer or owner, and lie credited with the quantity transported beyond the limits of the district in bond under permit "ranted by the Assess. >r, or removed upon payment of the tax, as also with the quantity if any, sold and delivered to any manufac turer or numufitetming company for con sumption in the district. Tite Commissioner prescribes the rub-s under which the removal of cotton from one district to another may be made Where parties are desirous of paying tne tax on their cotton before the' removal front the district where the same is pro duced, they wiU be required to make a re turn to tlie Assessor or an Assistant Asses sors of the district. Upon receipt of the return, the Assessor or Assistant Assessor to whom it is deliver ed will immediately proceed to a.-—— the tax upon the cotton mentioned therein and will at once certify the amount thereof to the Collector and make the required en try in his monthly list. The provisions for collecting the tax are as follows : Upon receipt of the Assessor's certificate the Collector will at once collect the tax’ and will thereupon issue his permit for the removal of cotton; which permit must state the amount and payment of the tax, the time and place of payment, and the marks, numbers, and gross weight of the bales or packages, so that the same mav at ail times be fully identified. The blank permit will be furnished from the otiico of internal revenue for this purpose. When ever the tax is paid, the usual metalie tag or mark is to be fastened on the bale. The Commissioner directs that returns be made at stated periods by the cotton manufac turers. Finally he warns all persons against the transportation of cotton; un less the mark itu k-ating that the revenue tax has been pan. is attached to each bale. VaU able C.tton Statistics. We take from Messrs. Cornwall & Sere na’s New York Circular the following valuable cotton statistics, showing. the monthly receipts at all the ports, of each crop of cotton, for the six years immedi ately preceding the war; also, the per cent age to each season's crop, of each month's receipts. This table will be of interest, as showing what per centage of the coming crop may be expected to come on the mar ket during each month, and also, as a par tial guide, as each month's receipts become known, to estimate tiro probable amount of the crop: Crop 1851-5.

The following observations on the pros pects of the cotton market are from the August circular of Samuel Smith, Liver pool: The prospects of the market ilo not at present invite a lengthened discussion, no important alteration in the facts of the ease lias occurred since my last issue, saving that peace has been re-established on the Continent. This circumstance, however, will exert an important influence upon the future of East India cotton, and prevent that depression and glut of supply which once seemed imminent. At the same time there is room for believing that the major part of the effect lias already been pro duced—a very considerable 'advance has taken place in Indian cotton, say 21 to 3d tja ib on the average from the lowest point of the market in May, or about 30 r p cent.; and with a very large supply still afloat, it is difficult to sec ho vv a larger advance could ho supported. The arrivals of Indian cotton in Great Britain for the next three months jnu.st be at the rate of 50,000 bales tp week, ana tiie largest possible demand can scarcely be expected to absorb all this. Doubtless the amount of cotton now afloat from the East respesents the bulk of what we get from that quarter for six months to come, for we know by tele graph that scarcely any cotton is now ship ping for England, nor is it likely that ex ports will be resumed freely for several months, still these considerations cannot be expected to weigh much till later in the year, and only then if the prospects of the American crop are poor. 11 is evident that we will have an ample supply of Indian cotton to iast till next January or February, and by that period we will be receiving freely whatever America has to spare from the next crop. More moderate views are also entertain ed now of the future of Amerctm cotton. The opinion was long clung to tiiat great scarcity would be felt this autumn, at least before next crop arrived, but it is seen now that the old stock will last longer than was expected. The demand has turned large ly upon Surats, and there is no reason to believe that any excessive scarcity of American cotton will be feit this year. The long staples occupy the strongest position. Very little Brazil and Egyptian cotton can reach us before November, and meanwhile the trade Will be greatly pinched for sup ply ; the present price of Egyptian cotton is 5d "jf>, ft> higher tnan it was at tins time last year, while American cotton is 5d tp tb cheaper, showing a difference in their relative position of lOd tb—an anomaly perhaps never witnessed before. This state of things must last till the new crop arrives, and no doubt one effect will be to benefit strong stapled American cotton; but whether it will be sufficient to draw up the whole mass of American cotton ma terially in price is doubtful, The keystone to the future position of the market is unquestionably the next American crop; all the influence already reported are unimportant compared to that. It appears probable that by the time it ■ reaches Europe in quantity, the stocks in the entrepots will be moderate, and the quantity afloat from other quarters small. Therefore, if the prospects of supply from America turn out to be poor, the markets of Europe will he ripe for an advance; but should the prospect be good, or even moderately good, there will remain suf ficient ballast of old stock in Europe to keep down any tendency to advance, The accounts we are now receiving from America arO more favorable than they were a month ago; the \yeather has been good for the growing crop for some weeks past in the South, and the injury sustained at the start lias in some measure been repaired; still I understand that the appearance of the plant is poor, the season backward, and I the prospects of a good yield not promis ing. Estimates of the prop are at present mere guess work, but as far as I can col lect the favorite opinion among reliable authorities is two millions of bales, though this is usually accompanied by the con dition that the picking season must bo fine. Really reliable crop estimates can seldom be formed before the month of November, j and in a season like the present, an im 1 mouse deal depends upon the advent of I “killing frost’'— in other words, the terrni ! nation of picking.

FOR PACKING COTTON. r |pIIF ATTENTION OF COTTON 1 PLANTERS is invited to th? iali.'is of tills invuhtion, which, in SIMPLICITY, ECC.NaM Y, I O' R A Pi LITY find POWER, suri'B-sses nny machine for Baling Cotton ever before presented to the country. Its great excellence in th jse respects makes it THE BEST MACHINE FOR PACKING COTTON IN THE WORLD ! 1. ITS SIMPLICITY.—It is anew ar.'i improved applica tion of the Screw Power; just its simple in its construction a the old fa. hioned wooden screw, as e.i.vily managed, and no more liaUe to get out of order. No rope j or pul lies as u.v.d in the cotton presses. 2. ITS ECONOMY.—Tt. has been demonstrated by actua experiment to be cheaper than the wooden screw. The tim bers used in its construction are much smaller and fewer than those employed in the old se. w ; the levers being only 10 feet long, and the height of the whole frame above the bed being only 10 feet. All these timbers can be procured on the plan tation, no matter how exhausted the forest. Any ordinary wood workman can build .lie frame, and half a dozen hands will put it uii in a few hours. and. ITS DURABILITY.—The Screw and Nut are of iron, and will last for years without any anprcci-ble wear. The whole machine occupies so little epace that it can be com pletely covered at very smalJ v-^.. I. ITS POWDER. - With a lever only sixteen feet long, one mule is sutllvicnt for packing the heaviest bales. Planters wh-, l ave.used it say that, with two mules, cotton may be compressed on this machine for shipment. Tills Screw wus mvcnlcd just Is .‘sis iluir.peninc of the war. ‘ l -, : ba: .•’ibsequently never been \cty gt-miaHy introduecl. - • .a the opinion tiiat it is USBIVAiLEB AS A COTTOX SCREW. The following testimonials from some of the best and most reputable planters in the country show the estimate in which this screw stands with those who have tried it: ....have used and seen in operation far the last live years, \y light's improved Cotton Iron Screw, and feel no Ju Hltation I n pronouncing it the very best Cotton Sc; e\v we have ever known. So highly do we esteem it, that, if p v.ti ea» le to ob tain one of them, we would have no other. IPs easily built, ‘■niiple m its construction, not liable to go.t on. of order, packs well, with great power and with great facility. Edward T. Sh.-pherd, C. Y. Banks, Elkanah Pace. W. 11. Mitchell.
