A foot of snow fell in Buffalo, New York, on the 14th Instant. Thermom eter 73° yesterday in Columbus, Geor gia. New York has a man dressmaker who bids fair to become as distin guished as Worth. His namo is La nonette, and they say his dresses are marvels of lit and taste. OtJR exchanges inform us that the Board of Trade of Baltimore have re fused to take partin the Southern Pacific Railroad Convention, to be held on the 23d inst., at St. Louis. George L. Fox, the actor, better known as “Humpty-Dumpty,” is in sane. While acting in the “Freed man’s Bureau” farce ho received a blow on the head which caused a softening of the brain. Brows sheetings arc now produced und sold at 8J cents, against 9 cents In 1861 ; print cloths at 4J cents, which was the old price, and middling cot ton 14 cents, against 161 cents. All t his is in favor of Southern cotton factories. The Washington Sunday Chronicle has pronounced itself in favor of the third term. So also lias Jebadiuh Broadbrim Burdoltduho, whose .jour nal declares that Grant will havo more votes in the next Congress than “Carter had oats.” There are ruinous revelations in St. Louis. The story of the St. Louis Whiskey Ring is in a nutshell as fol lows : "#8,500 were stolen eaeli week, and divided between McKee, Mc- Donald, Megrim, Joyce, Ford, and all the gangers and store-keepers.” Specie, eight millions; circulation, fire hundred millions! Such, says the Richmond Dispatch, was the con dition of the National banks on the Ist day of October last. A gold basis! Resumption seems near! The Richmond Whig says: “The Democratic party of the Uulon is op posed toallfthought of a repudiation of the national debt, and the Conser vative party of Virginia is opposed to all thought of a repudiation of Vir ginia’s debt.” It. M. T. Hunter, of Virginia, who was present at the unveiling of Poe’s monument in Baltimore, on the 17th inst.. is said to he the only surviving classmate of the poet; but if we mis take not, them is another—-Hon. Robert Mallory, of Lagrange, Ken tucky. The New Orleans Picayune says: “The truth is, that the people will always add to or subtract from a measure the moral weight of the men who propose it. In oilier words, t hey must have confidence in the law makers, before they will yield respect and obedience to the laws made.” Is addition to pauper farms every county should havo on these farms places for crippled or infirm mechan ics—liko shoemakers, for example— where they may do all in their pow er to earn their living. Bartow coun ty Ims had a pauper farm for several years, and the paupers earn their support. ..I ,i <[ i. i.i - ■■■ • a Personae, —We were glad to meet Cot. Wm. J. Muglll, of Atlanta, in our office yesterday. Col. MagUl is Su perintendent of agencies in tho Cot ton States Lifo Insurance Company, and was a very gallant officer during the war. He was Lieut. Colonel of t he First Georgia Regulars, commanded by Col. Charles J. Williams. Ho lost an arm in the service, and wo hope ho will find his visit to Columbus both profitable and pleasant. That personal riches are not neces sarily indicative of financiering skill is fully proven by the history of our most eminent American statesmen. No man in America is more frequent ly quoted as a master of the art of fi nance than Daniel Webster, yet Webster had to be assisted by friends. The Tariff system owes Its origin to Henry Clay, yet his last years would lmvo been passed in penury but, for tho charity of friends. The Gotten States have made near ly 8,000,000 bales of cotton, worth at least #440,000,000 in t lie past two years. It is sad to think that scarce a pound of this paid a net profit to the plant ers or negroes, after deducting the most economical living expenditures. The last man who handies Southern cotton reaps the greatest profit; the producer receives the least. Get out of debt and this will no longer be the case. The way to get out of debt each individual must decide for himself. Neither merchants nor farmers need hope to be prosi>erous until a nearer approach to a cash system is made. The atttempts to raise cotton in California, which at first gave some promise of success, do not appear to be attended by any very encouraging results. Tho area planted, it is now rumored, is growing less, while a de terioration is noted in the quantity of the product itself. The fact is, the industry there is pursued under many disadvantages. There is no steady demand for the raw material in con sequence of there being no factory to work it up, and then again tho cost of production is such as will not ad mit of its being shipped, as the South ern product can be obtained at a much lower price. The farmers are also inexperienced in cotton culture and are unable to protect the plant against the many accidents to which it is subject Cl 04. i The announcement by telegraph that Don Carlos had writ ten a letter to King Alphonso of Bt.aln,8 t .aln, offering to unite his army with that of King Alphonso, should war be declared againstSpnln by tho United States, in order to bring to a close the Cu ban wur, evinces, if true, cither the imminence of a conflict or the weak ness of Don Carlos; In either case it invests the subject with renewed interest. Up to 1860 she standing army of Spain in Culm was 25,000; j the war between tho Slates relieved j Spain of the fear of American inter ference, in behalf of Cuba, and tills army was reduced to 10,000, On Oc- I tober 10th, 1808, Carlos Manuel de Cespedes declared for independence of Spanish rule. In October, 1808, Spain had 19,7(8) men or all arms in Cuba; before the close of the year 20,000 additional troops had been sent from Europe, over 12,000 recruit ed on tho Island, and 40,000 volun teers organized for the defence of cities. Since 18G8, Spain has sont to Cuba 80,(88) soldiers, of whom not more than 12,000 survive. Up to Au gust, 1872, 13,(88) Cubans had been killed in battlo, besides 43,500 prison ers whom tho Spanish minister ad mitted to have been put to death. Up to October,lB7l, Spain had expen ded $70,339,658.70. Without going too much into details wo give a brief out line of the character of this wur in the once “ever faithful isle.” The brutal rule of General Concha and his determination to Africanize the Island in 1854, effectually preven ted insurrection, but stirred the em bers of hatred in the hearts of a peo ple ready to seize tho first moment of relief offered to them. Tills hu tred culminated in open revolt In 1867, since which time a guerilla war has oxisted. In 1809 Gen. Yalmaseda issued a proclamation that every male over fifteen years of age found in the coun try uway from his home should be shot; that every house on which a white flag was not displayed should be burned; and that all women and children found alone on their farms should ho removed either willingly or by force to either Bayamo or Juguuni. In December, 1871, Valina seda issued a proclamation giving notice that every Insurgent taken af ter January, 1872, would bo shot, and all surrendering after Unit dute con demned to perpetual imprisonment. A recent estimate places the debt of Spain at $2,6(8),000,(8)0, which is an in crease in three years of nearly $1,000,- (88),(88). The bulk of the new loan is probably floating debt borrowed from hand to mouth at Madrid. Spunlsh six per cents, are quoted at 02 in London. In January, 1870, the United States, through Secretary Fish, made propo sitions to Spain for the cession of the Island to the Cubans, but without success. It is thought that President Grant has always differed with the Secretary of State concerning the Cuban policy of the United States, and that he will precipitate war be tween Spain and this country osten sibly in behalf of Cuba, but really to secure his nomination for the Presi dency in 1876. His famous Pennsyl vania letter shows that ho anticipa ted some undue cause which might justify his accepting the nomination for the third term. Tills Cuban question is most in structive in another sense : while it shows that Vulmaseda had prece dents for iiis incendiary course in that pursued by Sherman and Sheri dan during our war, it also shows that tho United Suite# authorities were far more civilized in their treat ment of Southern soldiers. But the greatest stigma that stains tho es cutcheon of the United Sates, and al so that of Spain, is the inhuman butchery of Captuiu Fry, the heroic gentleman and gallant Confederate, who was killed contrary to tho laws of war and to international law. Hud lie been a Northern man we may well boliove his fate would have been avenged; had lie been an English subject a British fleet, would have long since punished his murderers; as ho hud been a Confederate officer it was his fate to bo simply a mar tyr. The doctrine enunciated by the Ohio and Pennsylvania Democrats is opposition to forced resumption in 1879, and to further contract ion of tho currency at present.—Columbus (Gao Times. No; they demanded more irredeem able currency. It was that broke their bucks. Don’t crowd notorious facts out of sight.—Memphis Ava lanche. Read the resolutions passed by the Pennsylvania Democ racy, friend, and see if thero is any demaud for “more irredeem able currency.” We did not allude to any individual speaker, but 10 the central principles which governed the Democracy in the Ohio election. Meanwhile, we ask who demanded any irredeemable currency? Who proposed that wo should not, when ever the business interests of the country shall admit of it, return to specie pay ments? The facts that arc “notorious" with regard to the Ohio campaign show that the Democracy polled u larger vote than it has ever done before, and we reiterate our opinion as expressed above, that forced resumption in 1879, and imme diate contraction of the currency were tlio leading issues in the Ohio cam paign. Reduction or Wages.— Full River, Manx., Nov. 16. Owing to a falling off in prices of print cloths since Sep tember slh, the manufacturers have appointed a committee to visit England, and arranged for the expor tation of fabrics. A further reduc tion of ten per cent, on wages Ims I been voted. j Negroes to be Brouout is the Church. - Louisville Kij., Nov. 16. The Episcopal Board of Missions is discussing plans to briug the negroes within the pale of the church. The hoard seems to think the Catholic Church is in a fair way to do this. Bnlhord. Many of our reuders must have wondered who Guibord was. His uuburied body has been waiting iu- I torment for six years und finally has j found its last resting place. He has I cost the newspapers many thousands of dollurs worth of telegraphing since he become famous by dying. An exchange comes to the relief of the public by tlie following descrip tion of bis history: Poor Joseph Guibord’s bones have at last found peace, and the long con troversy of six years is over. A print er in bis life-time, and a man of no note his body bus caused mure dis sension in Canada and Englund than many a talented man, by tho most constant and vigorous use of bands and brains. Ims been able to effect. Although ne died not under the ana thema of the Church, ids body was denied sepulture in holy ground, and Ids friends considered it. incumbent on them to prosecute the case to the hitter end. Bo they did ; carried it through every court of Canada, and finally to the Queen’s Privy Council, where an order was obtained for the burial of the bodv in the Catholic Cemetery of Mount Royal. The French Canadians resisted the order as far as they dared, and without doubt, had they not been restrained, would have carried their resistance to a more des perate degree; but their emotions were calmed by the sight of the long files of loaded muskets, by the rumb ling artillery, and the naked sabres; their feelings were soot lied by the re membrance of the curse which the Bishop of Montreal had pronounced on the grave, and so they flocked to gether In thousands, and the funeral of the Canadian printer was more nu merously attended than would have been the obsequies of the Governor General. At tills late day in the proceedings a discussion of the justice of the church officials’ conduct is useless, but the question suggests itself: Gui bord was refused Christian burial be cause he belonged to the Inetitut Co nadien. which contained proscribed books in its library. Cardinal Man ning, of England, belongs to the Atheneeum Club, whose library is full of proscribed tiooks. When the lat ter dies, will the Queen’s Regiments the Royal Artillery, and the Mounted Police be mustered ready for action, in order to see tiis remains to their last resting place ? The famous submarine tunnel of the English Channel will soon be be gun. The members of the French Commission, composed for the most part of practical men and engineers, declare that an underground commu nication between France and Eng land is only a question of expense, and their report leads to the belief that, the project can be carried out with.less expense than was at first imagined, and that the danger of leakage and infiltration will not be so great ns was originally sup posed. A shaft will shortly be sunk on the French side of the Channel, near Culuis, to a depth of 350 feet, for the purpose of hauling up the earth and rock from the excavation. Concerning the Southern Pacific Railroad Convention, tho Mobile Reg ister says: "Tho object of assem bling Southern delegat es is Soul hern interest; and each and every Board, Chamber, or other body which sends a delegation, should instruct it be forehand. Such declaration of its wishes should he made emphatic and definitive; and we might add the ne cessity for every delegate to read up the subject carefully. No one should go to St. Louis with crude and undi-. posted ideas upon a subject which will be opposed by men who have every data and calculation at the tongue's tip.” The Mobile Register, in speaking of the State debt of Alabama, says: Now if the Journal will bear in mind that, tho State owes the coun ties for educational purposes back dues to t.lte amount of more than one million of dollars, and that not u dol- Inrof interest has been paid upon the State debt since 1871, a period of near ly four years, it will find the account to stand about as follows: Total debt $23,503,593 Hack dues to public schools 1,000,0(8) Interest for four years (about). 7,500,000 $34,003,593 It. seems to us, from our way of looking at it, that the State Cotnmis- j skitters have not exaggerated the facts in saying that, tlie State debt, which the hew Constitution, if adopt ed to-day, will attempt to provide for, is not less than $30,000,000. We fear that by January 1, 1876, the General Assembly, after minute investigation, will find that it is not much less than $35,000,(8)0. The annual report of the secretary of the Southern Historical Society, of which Gen. .Tubal A. Early is president, shows the following facts: The society possesses a nearly com plete set of all tlie reports printed by the Confederate departments, in cluding presidents’ messages, re ports of battles, acts of the Confed erate Congress and State govern ments, &o. It lias also a full set of manuscript reports of Gen. Long street’s corps ; all of Gen. Ewell's re ports; the papers of Gen. J E. B. Stuart : a full set of papers of Gen. i S. D. Lee’s* corps, and many otliei valuable reports of Confederate offi cers. besides a number of Federal official reports. The collection also contains ttie report to Congress of the committee on the conduct of the war; a manuscript history of Gen. Longstreet's corps, by Gen. E. P. Alexander; ft large collection of pam phlets published during the war; a collection of maps illustrating the movements of the armies, presented by Gen. Humphreys, chief engineer of the United States army, and many other interesting historical docu ments relating to tho war and the Confederacy. In his catalogue of Southern out rages Senator Morton mentions a ease where a poor, innocent negro— perhaps an orphan—was hung for hog stealing if things have come to such a pass that a colored citizen can't lay in his pork surreptitiously without being made to confront the stern penalties of the law, then the Republic is indeed lost. -Courier- Journal. The Hog Trade of St. Louis.— From tables published in the St. Louis Live Stock and Commercial Record it appears thenumberof hogs packed in that city from March Ist to October 31st wins 102,424. averaging 220 pounds each, against 159,961. averag ing 209 pounds, lost year.

The question appears to have been raise(l in London whether the erec tion of a stutue to Stonewall Jackson in Richmond may not disturb the friendly relations now growing up again between the North and South. The dedication of the Jackson sta tue has not caused a ripple upon the surface here, und as to the other con tingency, nothing short of the erec tion of a statue to J.-ff Davis by royal warrant would bring that to pass. Boston Advertiser, Republican. It is unfortunate for President Grant that so many of his chosen friends and absorbers of Federal pat ronage turn out to be rascals, and occupy unenviable attitudes before the public. Gen.
