.-mu-king Murder.
A man uimed McCauley, who was, we
ions ji, employed at Kalmia, was found in
Wasliingtoii .-licet near the Presbyterian
. b.urcli, about 10 o cl oek on Saturday night,
in a dying conditio:’, having received a
blow on the head, with iiobu; sharp iustru
jneut, i>cnetm«*~
... r uto sktil:. lie was
tak o to the City Hat'., were he very soon
explr i. When found his pockets 'were
tm to-i Inside out, indicating that the ob
ject of the murderer was plunder. At the
’dmo there was no evidence who was the
peti ctrat'ir of the deed. On Sunday, while
tin- poh- c facers and others were prepar
ing the body of the deceased for burial, a
stranger came in, and on looking at the
enrpso ixprisMil much surprise at dis
covering in the deceased one whom he
had Sis'a on the cars the night before, and
who ho said lie hid p.o-.cd with at th
depot, or near Broad street. One of the
poli - mou recognized the stranger as the
original of a photograph sent to the chief
of poll* o l,y the Mayor of Little Rock, to
aid iu the arrest of a man named Harley,
or Hartley, who is charged with stealing
S9OO in gvM from .someone in that city.
He* acknowledged that the photograph was
of ami on being taken into custody
ami examined, marks were fuund on his
pii>on which continued the indontlu.'ii
tioii. In the examination fresh stains of
blood wore found upon his shirt, and also
upon his vest, which led t > the suspicion
that he was the murderer of McCauley,
and he was lodged in jail.
Mr. McCauley was, w e learn, on his way
to Albany, Georgia, where ho resides.
I.axi less Conduct.
A friend informs u, that a party of
uug lutn in Aiken ran off a Yankee
; negro reboot teacher, ■ -night before last. 1
; The act is deprecated by the law-abiding j
i portion of tbe community, who propose l
i taking some steps to express their con- :
demnation. Such acts are not only wrong .
j in themselves, but do incalculable injury i
jo the South at a time when xve are seek
ing restoration to our old political stain*, i
We know not the offence committed by tho j
l ar lier. ) ;l it coula not have justified the
means used to get rid of tbe offender. His ;
most true that many of the teachers sent ;
among us by the school commission agen
cies of t!ie North are doing mi--chief in
embittering the blacks against tho whites; |
hut we know of no way of getting rid of '
them, save to let lime open their eyes to I
the truth, or for every community to ex- |
tablish schools for the freedmen, and thus |
takeaway the occupation of the fanatics i
who are usually selected to take charge of j
these schools under the Northern com- :
mission.

Crop Intelligence.
We continue our weekly summary of
news from the growing crops, which, it
will be seen, present iiltle of an encourag
ing character.
The Thonui'viile Enterprlee says: “The
cotton crop in this section will fall far be
low.the expectations cf planters at the be
g'mning of the season. At first the pros
i oct was good for a iair crop upon the
lands planted) but tbe accidents of season
have been unasa!. Tha long heavy rains
protracted the damp weather to such an
extent, that the first or bottom bolls on the
stalks rotted and became worthless. The
rainy weather is now over, but tiie cater
pillar has also made its appearance in
n.-i-t of tlio farms, and the last, or top boUs,
m -which planters always expect a late
crop, will now fail a sacrifice to it* depre
dations. The present cold snap already
indicate* ,; nr!y cold Weather, and between
the accidents of the seasons, the reluctance
of fro - ini-n to gather that already made*
and the devouring caterpillar, tlio crop will
fall extremely short of tho general exjiec
fntion. The facta of this statement, we
have gathered from the farmers themsei ves,
fi in varitus sections of tbe country.’
The Charleston Courier says a letter re
cei’ -‘-d by one of our city factors, from St.
James', G- *e Creek, dated Sept. 2-Jtii,
say*: “The loss by short work is great.
Can't get more than 3“ or 40 pounds cotton
picked per day, wherein the hand* ought
,; : at :■ . 1 150. I can c >ont from 40
to.Vip d.i o; ene-l on the Gaik, ar.d the
gj-'i-ind in many ['he- -s c <vered and tx-m
--iug up ,u: ieg,) from the recent rains. ’
A gentleman ('.Tiling from Grenada,
.Miss., Sept. 20. says: “lam glad to hear
S \ u kers tire beginning to be
lie-ve in a short crop. Tell tliefni to con
tinue to shorten till they get below 1,200,000
bales. I can sny nothing Os any State but
Miic-.i-.-ippi, and we are all of ono mind.
During July and August wo had no rain,
but it lias been raining ail tills month, and
ail the mrnis ar." small bolls formed dur
ing the drought fell off when tho wet
wcatlu r set in, and all the grown bolls ret
ell. and then came tho caterpillar, and the
cott n fields look as naked as thoy should
in January. So that we cannot make more
than half as much ns I’expected when in
your city. I speak only of this State, as I
know nothing of any other except North
Carolina, which is worse, if possible, than
Mississippi.”
Another writer from North Mississippi,
say*: “The most discouraging reports come
fr* :n all sections of the State, except some
parts of the ‘bottoms,’ and it is judged now
that the lowest estimates will scarcely be
realized.”
TLo Houma Civic Guard, of the 29th,
says: “We have north winds lately, and
con-cqnently several cool days and nights,
reminding us that the sugar rolling season
;•! approaching. But our planters say that
cane is quite backward this year, and will
not be ready to roll before November. We
learn that it is tiie opinion of experienced
planters that cane will not yield much
sugar this year. The ‘signs,’upon which
this evil prophecy is based seems to bo bad
enough. It appears that the cane is, more
or loss, hollow and dry; and what is tvorse,
sprouting at the joints. The cotton is
opening too fast. There is not sutlicient
labor to pick it. This is but ono of the
evils of the army worm. After the plant
is killed by being.stripped of its leaves,
what bolls arc left on the stalk open almost
immediately, and all the cotton requires
to bo picked, almost, at tho same time.
Thus, there will be an additional loss of
cotton for want of sufficient labor to pick
it all at once.”
The Raleigh Standard publishes tho fol
lowing extract from a private letter con
cerning crops in McDowell county: “ I
have been over a considerable portion of
McDowell recently, and consider the crop
an average one. Upland crops have suf
fered from tlio effects of the drought. I
think we shall have some corn to spare.”
Tho Galveston Mcn-s, of tlio 28th, says:
“An intelligent planter informs us that
there will not lie more than ono-tenth of a
crop of cotton in Matagorda, Brazoria and
Wharton count! % In fort Bend about onr
e'glith of a crop will bo made. Our inform
ant is well acquainted with the region he
represent*. His information from tlio
whole State is extensive, and ho thinks tlio
entire crop will bo much below one
fourth.”
Tho Huntsville Independent says: “As
far as our information extends tlio apple
crop of Blunt, St. Clair and Jefferson is
abundant, and of excellent quality. Our
friends South may expect soon to seo the
arrival oi numerous wagons loaded with
the owler apple.”
Greece and the Ottoman Empire-—The
Days of the “Sick Man” A'umbered.
_ King George of Greece .has gone hack to
hi.; capital, and the words that had been
attributed to him about his being “ King
of all the Jlallenes,” and taking to heart
the interests of all tho scattered fragments
of what was once the Grecian nation, were'
in all probability, never uttered. The
King must be fully aware that Greece has
neither financial nor moral credit to enlist
in her favor the sympathies of the world,
and to enable her to provoke a collision
with the Ottoman Empire. The only
matter of uncertainty is to what extent
that young Monarch may be able to con
trol the impetuosity of his subjects, as it
seems that Greeks from King George's
kingdom have been at the head of the
(’retail insurgents from the outset, and the
Turks complain now that 7,000 muskets
with ammunition have been conveyed to
(Vote from, the Greek harbor at Syra.
Notwithstanding those petty causes of "dis
sension, we do not as yet feel inclined to
believe in the possibility of any serious
mil-understanding between the Courts of j
Athens and Constantinople, nor do we ap- j
prebend any immediate solution of that
most puzzling of human problems, the j
Eastern question. Inevitable as that solti- j
tion may be, and at no distant period, it
will always be wise to put it oft'as long as j
possible. There are few men at the j
present day at a loss how to put a proper i
value on the respective merits of Greek j
and Turk, and as to every subject of dis- l
pute between them. The question is no ;
longer one of justice, hut of expediency ; '
not of sympathy, but of policy. There is
little doubt as to the days of the Turkish i
E : pinnn Europe being numbered; but it |
is not quite clear as yet how the gap left ;
by the expulsion of the Moslem is to be
tilled up. It is not King George, nor any
man at the head of the Greek nation, who
will he readily trusted with the guardian
ship of ihe iSyaits. There are none of the :
Dowers of Europe prepared to face that '
terrible Eastern question at tho present !
moment, it is very questionable whether i
they will ever attempt to make ready for
it. It is sure to break upon them of a
sudden. _ However long looked forward to,
it will always take ‘lie world by surprise.
The fact is, the settlement of that cues- i
tion involves a grave general European
catastrophe. The questio i admits of no
pacific or diplomatic solution. It, will !
have to be referred to the u’tima ratio, j
Can it L-e a matter of wonder if statesmen

Washington. October 11.—A dispatch
appeared in the Philadelphia Jjedger this
lnornimr, dated "Washington, announcing j
that tho President had propounded certain
interrogatories to the Attorney Genera!,
respecting the constitutionality of Con
grt. and that an opinion in writing would

The dispatch caused a great sensation ;
the effect being felt quite seriously iu ruer- I
cantil ■ circles. Gold made an advance to |
"i.t|, during the day, owing to its influence. .
There is authority for saying, however, I
that the statement is not in accordance .
with facts, no questions of such a charac
ter having ever been submitted by the
President to the Saw officers of the Govern
ment. The President to-dav appointed
Wickham Hoffman, of Louisiania, as- i
sistant Secretary of the United States lega- ;
tion at Paris. A heavy rain has been fal
ling since yesterday afternoon. Streams
in this vicinity are very much swollen, and
there has been considerable damage to pro
perty.
Denial of a JSensallonal Dispatch.
Washington, October 12.—The Phila
delphia Ledger this morning admits that I
its correspondent was deceived in tele- ;
graphing a dispatch to the effect that the j
President had addressed a letter to the
Attorney General asking substantially as
to tiie constitutionality of not sending his
message to Congress, and if he has not
the power to reorganize the Southern Rep
resentatives and administration Repre
sentatives of the North as tho legitimate
Congress, etc. Tlio excitement which was
occasioned by this sensational report is al- j
laved under the emphatic and semi-official 1
denials which are published.
Circuit Court Adjourned—Rain, &c.
Washington, October 1”. The
United States Circuit Courtmet yesterday,
at Trenton, New Jersey, but adjourned for
tho term in accordance with tlio opin
ion of Chief Justice Chase that Circuit
Courts cannot be held until anew assign
ment of circuits is made at Washington.
Tito heavy rain storm which commenced
on the afternoon of- the 10th, still con
tinues ; the quantity of rain which has
fallen is extraordinary, and the damage in
many instances has been very serious iu
this vicinity’.
Correspondence Between tiie President j
and the Attorney General.
Washington, October 13. —The Presi
dent has addressed the following letter to
the Attorney General in regard to the trial
of Jefferson Davis :
EXECUTIVE MANSION, 1
Washington, I). C., Oct. 6, 1866. j
Shy : —A special term of the Circuit
Court of tiie United States was appointed
for the first Tuesday in October, ISG6, at
Richmond, Virginia, for the trial of Jeffer
son Davis, on the charge of treason. It
now appears that there will be no session
of that Court at Richmond during tlio
present month, and doubts are expressed
whether the regular term ( which by law
should commence on the fourth Monday of
November next,) will be held—in view cf
this obstruction, and the consequent
delay in proceeding with the trial of Jeffer
son Davis under the prosecution for trea
son now pending in that Court, and there
being so far as the President is informed,
no good reason why the civil courts
of the United States are not com
petent to exercise adequate jurisdic
tion within tho district or circuit in
which the State of Virginia is included,
I deem it proper to request your opinion
as to what further steps, if any, should be
taken by tho Executive, with a view to a
speedy, public and impartial trial of the
accused, according to the constitution and
laws of the Uuited States.
I am, sir, very respectfully yours,
Andrew Johnson.
To lion. Henry Stanberev, Attorney
General.
In response to the above, the Attorney
General, under date of the 12th instant,
states:
I am clearly of the opinion that there is
nothing in tlio present condition of "V irgi
nia to prevent the full exercise of jurisdic
tion of civil courts. The actual state of
things, and your several proclamations of
peace, and of the restoration of civil
order, guaranty to the civil authorities,
Federal and State, immunity against mili
tary control or interference. It seems to
me that in this particular there is no ne
cessity for further action on the part of the
Executive in theway of proclamation, es
pecially as Congress at the late session, re
quired the Circuit Court of .the United
States to be held at Richmond on the first
Monday of May and the fourth Monday
of November in each year, and author
ized special or adjourned terms of the
Court to be ordered by tho Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court, at such time anil
on such notice as he might prescribe, with
the same power and jurisdiction as at regu
iHr terms. This is an explicit recognition
; by Congress that the State of things in
Virginia admits the holding of the Uuited
States Courts in that State.
lie also says.: Mr. Davis remains in
! custody at Fortress Monroe, precisely as
| he was held in January last, when in
! answer to a resolution of Congress you rc
| ported a communication from the Seere
tary of War, and the Attorney General,
| .showing that he was held to await trial in
| the civil courts. No action was then taken
by Congress in reference to the place of
custody. No demand has since been made
for his transfer into civil custody. The
District Utorimy of the United States for
| the District of Virginia, where Mr. Davis
: stands indicted for treason, has been notified
I that the prisoner would be surrendered to
: the United States Marshal upon a capias,
under the indictment, but the District}
Attorney declines to have the capias j
. issued beoavsa there is no other place j
within the district, where tho prisoner i
| could be kept, or where his personal com; !
; fort and health could be so well provided j
| for. No application has been made, j
| within my knowledge, by the counsel of j
i Mr. Davis for a transfer of the prisoner to
1 civil custody. Recently an application was
made bj I.ia counsel ibr his transfer from
Fortress Monroe to Fort Lafayette, on the
ground chiefly of sanitary consideration.
-V reference was promptly made to a Board
of Surgeons, whose report was decidedly
adverse to any change, on the score of
health and personal comfort. * un
able.to sen who; fur-hm <r tion can be taken
on the part of the Executive to bring the
prisoner to triM.
Mr. Davis must, for the present, remain
where he is, until the Do art \vh.eit has i
jurisdiction to try him, shall be ready to
act, or until his custody is demanded under
lawful process of the Federal Courts, The
Attorney General suggests, that, to avoid
apy misunderstanding on the sub* / 'f. t -. jn
au order be issued to *’ ae j ant 0 f \
iolfr, ..'S Monroe to surrender the prisoner
to civil custody, whenever demanded by :
the United States Marshall, upon process
from the Federal Courts. Mr. Stanberry
incloses a Liter of the United States Dis
trict Attorney, for Virginia, who states in
answer to the question why no demand bad
been made upon the military authorities
‘ for the surrender of Jefferson Davis, that :
in order that he might be tried upon
the indictment found against him in
die United States Circuit Court at the
term he’d at Norfolk in May last, that
two reasons hal influenced him in not
removing him from their custody. He.
• says, the one relates to tbe safe keeping,
the other to his own personal comfort and "
hea !th. I have never had any doubt but
that he would be delivered to the United
; States Marshal of the district whenever
he slioui 1 have demanded him on a "eapi
; as" or any other civil process.
Washington, October 13. — Baron
Stoeckel, Prussian Minister, and Mr.
Bodiseo, have been introduced to the Pres

i REMARKS.—Trade has continued quite

J flour and com are much reduced, leaving

: of each of these, except corn, is 3till ample
j for the wants of trade. In dry goods, and
| boots aud shoes stocks are especially rich
! and attractive, and heavier than ever be
| fore. Unusual attention is being devoted
! to the decoration of stores; and the display
of goods in the rich fronts which adorn
Bread street reflects the highest credit upon
I the taste and progressive spirit of our deal
! or?. Wo trust their enterprise will be
; liberally recognized by the consuming pub
! lie.

i rather an irregular market, the principal
! sales being made at 35 to 3S cents. On
j Saturday the market was fiat, with a slight
j decline, and sales of 181 bales were report
iat34 to 364 cents. On Monday the market

tremes. On Tuesday the demand continued
good, and 330 bales wore sold at 31 to 35
cents for middling to good middling. On
Wednesday 230 bales were sold, and the
market was unchanged. On Thursday
there was an improvement in prices and
510 bales were sold at 35 to 301 cents for
