Washington, June 5. The Depart ment of Agriculture is now receiving tho June returns of cotton, which will form tho basis of the estimates of the area of tho present crop. During May preliminary returns were received from three hundred and sixteen cotton counties. In sixty-three counties In Georgia the area averages the samo as last year, as also in the districts repre sented in North Carolina, Florida and Texas. A deduction of 1 per cent, appears lu thirty-nine counties in Alabama; of 2 per cent, in eighteen counties of South Carolina; of 3 per cent, in 38 counties of Arkansas. The average reduction is 11 percent in Louisiana, and 17 per cent, in Tennessee; but there arc only twenty counties rep resented in each, and the full returns in June may make a different show ing. The serson is reported late in nearly every instance from ten days to two weeks, generally; but in some cases three, and even four weeks. More than two-thirds of the returns make the season too wet, especially at the time of planting and germi nating; in some districts, the past two weeks too dry. The stand is re ported good in a majority of the re turns from North Carolina, South Carolina. Florida, Alabama, Missis sippi and Texas,; rather above tho average in Arkansas and Tennessee, and scarcely an average in Louisiana. The eondition is represented below an average in Florida, Tennessee and Arkansas; slightly below in Georgia. M ississippi, Louisiana and Texas,and an nvoratfo in Alabama and tho Caro linas. • ♦ • MirrmaiiDefniiU hits “Memoir*" (■mill mid !le Third Torm. Special to tho Times by s. \ A. Line.) Chicago, Juno 5. (ion. Sherman has been in this city several days and converses freely in regard to the “Me moirs,” which have been so severely criticized. He earnestly disavows any laek of respect for the volunteers, who composed the bulk of the anmy, and speaks of them in the highest terms. He defends his appointment of Gen. Howard in preference to Lo gan and Blair, on the ground that the latter gentlemen were as much inter ested in polities ns in t lie war, and he desired a General who had no thought beyond the army. He expresses warm admiration for the ability of both Logan and Blair, and says that it was simply on technical grounds that ho failed to give (hem the preference. [n regard to general polities he says President Grant does not want a third term for himself, but perhaps he would like to see one of his friends perhaps Washburn elected. In any event, he remarked, it must he an able man. The newspapers need not trouble themselves in regard to him (Sherman) in that connection.

Nkw York, June 5. —The Jlc.rah.Vn Havana special of June 2d says the Uruguayan war transport Puigo, having on board seventy-two politi cal prisoners from Montevideo, has been seized by Spanish officers in the harbor of Havana. The main cause of this action is that sortie of the exiles that departed from the Uru guayan Republic have been recog nized as persons previously sent away from Havana for sympathizing with the Cuban insurgents. They had been exiled from Montevideo for con spiring to overthrow the government by revolution, and of having plotted the assassination of Don Pedro Rus selaand members of his cabinet. Another special from Havana says the American schooner Mary Chil ton, reported to be loaded with arms and ammunition, lias begn seized by the Spanish authorities at Punta de Cortas. • ♦ • The Hail Hervlee Over tlie Baltimore anil Olilo Itailrnufl.

A Specific for Neuralgia. TESTIMONIALS. l’KTKnsm no, Va., Jan. 20th, 1875. John I„ Jordan. Esq. Dear Sir: So well pleased am I with your Joyous Julep, that I hereby tea tify to the superior merit of your uucqualcd preparation lor Neuralgia. I shall esteem luy st If happy should even one of that worst of all classes of sufferers be led through me to take the Julep. My wife has for ten (10) years been a mar tyr to the most malignant and persistent neural gic torture, without being able to find any relief except front your preparation. She was relieved by the second dose as per directions, and has not had a return of it for two months. To some I may seem strangely sanguine about your medi cine, but I have a right to bo so. It is uot rea sonable to suppose this malignant malady would have died of sheer exhaustion of capacity for sustaining itself, amt that too in a minute, and the very minute your medicine was taken. If so, it is a most remarkable, simple coincidence, ami l prefer giving the credit in your favor ot the best testimony man can ever have—experience. Vary truly vonrs, JAMES T. TOBH. Columbus, January 16, 1875. Mr .Jordan: I tako great pleasure in recom mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia, has produced a most wonderful relief iu one oi the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter ever has had. Bhe bus been treated for it by three skillful physicians, with very little benefit, and used all the usual remedies with little suc cess. 1 can with much confidence hope for h per manent cure. It is only two daya since we began the use of it, and it is apparently of permanent benefit. Yours, with respect, MRS. L. I. NORMAN. .IOIIV 1.. JOICKAV, Apothecary.

W, A. FARLEY, rnydfi v.3m Ordinary. VOL. I.™NO. 1.32 APPLETONS’ Auierictin Cyclopedia. New Revised Edition. Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers ou every subject. Printed from new typo, and illus trated with Several Thousand Engravings mnl Maps. Tin* work originally published uuder the title of Tin; Nkw Amk.iucan Cwlou.kdia was com pleted in 1863. since which time the wide circula tion which it has attained in all parts of the Uuited States, and tin-signal developments which have taken place iu every branch of aciouco, lit erature ami art, have induced the editors und publishers to submit it to an exact and thorough revision, and to issue anew edition entitled Thk AMKRK'AN CYCLOI’.V.DtA. Within the last ten years the progress of dis covery in every department of knowledge has made anew work of reference an imperative want. The movement of political affairs lias kept pace with the discoveries of science, and their fruitful application to the Industrial and usefiil arts and the convenience and refinement of social life. Great wars und consequent revolutions have oc curred, involving national changes of peculiar moment. The. civil war of our owu country, which was at its height when ihe last volume of the old work appeared, has happily been ended, and anew course ol' commercial and industrial activity has been commenced. Large accessions to our geographical knowl edge have been made by tlie indefatigable ex plorers of Africa. The great political revolutions of the last de cade, with the natural result of tlfT* lapse of time, have brought into public view a multitude of new men, whose names are, in every one’s mouth, ami of whoso lives every one is curious to know the particulars. Great battles have been fought and important sieges maintained, of which the de tails are as yet preserved only in the newspapers or in the transient publications of the day. but which ought now to take their place in perma nent and authentic history. In preparing the present edition for the press, it lias accordingly been the aim of the editors to bring down the information to the, latest possi ble dates, and to furnish an accurate account of the most recent discoveries iu science, of every fresh production iu literature, aud of tho newest inventions iu the practical nrts. as well as to give a succinct and original record of the progress of political and historical events. The work Ims been begun after long and care ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample resources lor carrying it on to a successful term ination, None of the original stereotypo plates have been used, but every page lias been printed on new type, forming in fact anew Cyclopedia, with the same plan and compass as its predecessor, but with a lar greater pecuniary expenditure, ami with such improvements in its composition as have been suggested by longer experience aud enlarged knowledge. The illustrations which aro introduced for the first time in the present edition have been added not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give greater lucidity and force to the explanations in the text. They embrace all branches of science and <3 natural history, aud depict the most famous and remarkable matures of scenery, architecture and art, as well as the various pro cesses of mechanics and manufactures. Although intended for instruction rather than ombelishment, no pains have been spared to in sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their execution is enormous, and it is believed they will find a welcome reception as an admirable feature of the Cyclopedia, and worthy of its high character. This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable on delivery of each volume. It will be completed in sixteen lurge octavo volumes, each containing about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several thousand Wood Engravings, aud with numerous colored Lithographic Maps.
