DES ARC, ARK., SEPT. 29, 1866,
EARLY REPRESENTATION.
The prospects for ttn admission of the
Southern States into tiie national halls
of legislation grow brighter with each
demonstration of the conservative ele
ment of the country, and counter dem
onstration of the tire-eating Radicals.
The soldiers and sailors, at Cleveland,
declare themselves in favor of a com
plete restoration, and daily the voice <>1
patriotism grows louder in its claims
for restoration of rights and privileges.
Around President Johnson there gnth
ert the best, the bravest, and the purest
of the laud; and witkshim they swear
the country shall be free. The Radicals
see in these demonstrations a mighty
cloud shading the sun of their prosper
ity, and labor hard to counteract them.
They see themselves and their Congress
painted in living colors, as the great
obstacle to an early representation.
They deny it, bill each denial gives the
lie to their assertion and stamps thfun
guilty. The election in most of the
Northern States is fast approaching,
and Radicalism feels the sand beneath
its feet giving away, feel that they will
be defeated ; and then, “they must go
down to the vile dust from whenefhey
sprung, unwept, unhonored, and un
sung.” It is a truth the country well
understands, that a Radical Congress
will never consent to an admission of
the Southern States, unless the States
subscribe to tlicir policy, and thereby
seal their own disgrace and stamp
themselves as infamous as abolitionism
in its darkest shades. Manifestly, the
only hope of an early honorable resto
ration is in a conservative Congress.
We repeat it, we believe this hope is
reasonable. The people see the mad
ness of Radical rule, that if entails upon
the codntry naught but shame and con
i'nsimi. mwl tlicv nri* ofii • mifimul
that they will say to those who desire
in Congress to keep up this national
babel: “Depart, vc workers of iniqui
ty,” and by their sovereign voice raise
to office men who will labor for the
union of the States upon a basis honor
able to all. May it be so.
THEDIFFERENCE.
There is no fitter illustration of the
difference between the great parties
North in all things pertaining to harm
ony, peace and good will to men, than
is found in the prayers of the reverend
gentlemen in the two conventions late
ly convened in Philadelphia.
in the National Union Convention
which met August, lltli. LYv. ,i. N.
McDonough delivered the opening
prayer, it was a prayer of confession
and of supplication, bearing upon its
face deep piety and humble reliance;
altogether such n prayer as a Christian
and a man of God only could pray.
Not so the prayer of Key. Dr. Newman
of the Padieal Convention. In Ids
prayer the reverend Doctor assumes a
dictatorial position, and tells the J.ord
what ho ought to do, using language
tlmt would hardly be admissible in a
street harangue. So full are these Uev.
JUdiculs of enmity against the South,
and against the President, and against
all true men, that they have not in their
heart room for a good thought; they
think the Lord altogether such an one
as they are, and address him accord
ingly.
Austria and Hungary,
Austria is raising loans and concilia
ting Hungary. The Umpire ought to
he, a year hence, all the stronger for its
late defeat. The seven-days' war has
shown the Government in what it was
lacking. The loss of Venetia is a gain.
than she was three months ago, Prus
sia ins increased from KUKXi.oO:) to 2:5,
OU),0», and she eominands in the
Northern Bund a population of 27.
OO tfm What Southern Germany will
do is still a problem, and the unity of
Germany is not accomplished, 'l'hcj
people say : "We like the King of Prus
sia and Bismarck : they brush awav the ■
little kings like flies: wait awhile’ and
we will also brush away the Prussian !
King and his Bismarck.” The German
Parliament has yet to assemble. The |
Emperor of Prance has not spoken,!
though M. dc Rochojaquclin lias. Me
says France eaunot permit the balance '
ot European power to be destroyed by
two such nations as a United Germane
and a United Italy. France must make
an alliance with Austria. Prance must
increase her population. Southern tier
many must not he permitted to join
with Northern. The Pope save, "one!
more shake up and all will settle :”aud I
the Holy Farher mav he a prophet.— i
There arc not a few’who believe that
the brief war which lias just closed, is j
but the overture, before the curtain
rises upon one which will involve all
Europe. At this moment the cholera
is destroying many more in the Prus-j
si an and Austrian armies than were
killed or wounded. It rages at. St. i
Petersburg also, where the weather is!
as hot as it has been in New York. In j
London it has nearly vanished, but in
creases in Liverpool—the ’most un
healthy, drunken and miserable town
in England.—[Cor. New York Times.
The Radicals seem disappointed
over Seward’s recovery from the chol
era. These are the same people who
could hardly he restrained from mur
dering nil the Southern people, when
Jouio man made a pass with a bowie
knife at the throat of this same Se- I
ward.

COTTON.
The Supply (Vain Hie I nileil
Stilles iint! from
i From the Baltimore Sun.]
The report which has just been made
by J>r. Forbes to the English Government
i upon the cotton crop ofthe United States,
| alter an extensive tour through all the cot
| ton States, is probably a very accurate esti
mate ol'tlie amount which will bo secured
! during the present year. Dr Forbes esti
mates the entire crop at 1.200,000 hales.
This testimony is confirmed by the most
intelligent gentlemen from the Southern
States. Governor Pickens, of South Caro
, linn, himself a largo cotton planter, has
published a .letter on the Mina- subject, in
which lie estimates the whole crop at ho
'tween 1,800.000 and 1,400,000 bales.
1 His calculation is made by a comparison
' with the crop of I860, and the quantity of
i labor engaged iu the cultivation of cotton
| prior to the war. About 4,000,000 bales
were thrown upon the market iu 1860, the
| product of 1,200,000 laborers, black and
white, lie estimates the number of lain ir
| ers to have been reduced, by the desola
! tions of fvar and the change of locations of
j the negro population, to 400,000, and the
same average production now as before the
wav would bo 1,388,000 bnlcs, but 183.000
more than the amount conjectured by Dr.
Forbes. Eofore we can estimate the effect
upon the price in England and in this
country by the short crop, it is necessary
to compare the cotton supply which is now
drawn from India with that ofl8G0. In
; that year we sent to England 2.250,000
■ bales, and India sent 400,000 bales. Un
der the stimulating influence of our civil
war, the India supply rose steadily from
400,000 J^o 1,000,000 bales in 1804. while
that from the United States was only 80,
000 bales.
According to the London Times of Sep
tember 9, 1805, India now occupies, in
regard to the cotton supply, a place scarcely
inferior, in .proportion to that which was
occupied by the United States. The small
export jn 1806 of the surplus cotton which
had been stored during the war has hardly
Caused any diminution in the crop of India,
and as 200,000 bales is probably the ex
treme limit of that which can bo spared
from tho domestic consumption of this
country fur English manufacture, it may
be estimated that the development of the
*• " >11 1 IIUO MOO II
constant, and more especially as the agricul
tural production of India has steadily in
creased in like ratio for several years in
the great staples of jute, wool, tea and cof
fee. It may, then, be fairly assumed that
India will always be able to compensate
for the deficient crop of the United States.
At the same time the change in the labor
and social system of the Southern States,
renders it probable that a large part of
their agricultural industry will be perman
ently directed to the produce of grain and
tho raising of cattle, and those things which
make a country self-sustaining The plan
tation system favored the monopoly of the
producer of cotton. The farming system
will tend to do away with monopoly, and
introduce a grbater variety of crops,
lienee, oven should (lie negro population
be as sedulously occupied in productive
industry as they, were before the war.
Tho amount of cotton produced will he
permanently less than under the old sys
tem, and the price in tho markets of the
world less dependent upon the crop of the
United States, while it must he constantly
higher than it was when we raised the
amount of 4,000.000 bales annually. It
will bo long before, if ever, the price
recedes to eight and ten cents, making up
by increased price for the diminished --ap
ply, and employing a largo amount of their
agricultural labor in producing for their
own consumption much pi what they for
merly bought, the cotton States wili add
to their substantial wealth which will
hereafter he measured by some more gen
eral standard than the mere export of cot
ton.
The Veritable “Last Ditch” Man.
Tho Mobile Times says : Yesterday a
portion of the city in the neighborhood of
tho jail, was thrown into confusion b\ the
announcement that six Confederates had
been unearthed by the chain gang, while
removing tho extensive breastwork north
west of the jail.
The attention of Captain Seymour was
suddenly attracted by a loud exclamation
from one of the negroes, and lie hastened
to tin- spot, where lie was astonished to sec
the ground falling in. After a moment’s
hesitation men wore put to work, digging
as if for dear life around the spot, and the
captain was soon satisfied that he had
stumbled upon a cave of some description
further digging developed an opening,
and, to the great astonishment of the party
a head was thrust therefrom aud rapidly ?
withdrawn.
M«l_ * I • . r • 1
-a .ii.i win- JIIUM UL* wrouti
further assistance was summoned, ami. i
after additional shoveling to enlarge the
entrance, six individuals wrs dragged into
daylight, much against their will.
Everybody was astonished ht the circum
stance, especially as the prisoners had every
appearance of Confederates. On investiga
tion it was discovered the cave, through
the side ot which the chain-gang had bro
ken, had an outlet at the foot of the old
moat, among some thick and impenetra
ble bushes, and that these Confederates,
having determined never to surrender,
had taken refuge in this cave, and remain
ed there concealed ever since the capture
of Mobile. How they managed to subsist,
is difficult to tell but. it may be that parties
living in the neighborhood may be able to
give sortie information on that head.
This story is improbable on its face, but
does not appear so after an investigation
Captain Seymour had all six conveyed to
the guardhouse, where they were last night
visited by many citizens.
It is stated by a party who was one of
the defenders ot the city that, at the time
of the surrender, lie had heard that a elub
had been formed, called the “Alligators,”
who had sworn to burrow before they would
surrender.
t&' The President is reported to have '
said, in speaking of .Mr. Davis, that if he
is not tried at the October term of the
court in which he has been iuuieted, lie
should be released. As it is uudemtood
that be will not be tried at that time, his j
release may be expected soon alter the be-;
ginning of October, it is further reported
that Mr. Davis indignantly refused to be
released on condition of leaving the conn |
try uever to return.
j A Warning to the Jacobins from the
Soldiers.
The rcsolut ions of'the Cleveland Soldiers'
and Sailors’ Convention are brief but sig
nificant. They cover the whole ground
1 in the past and the present, and they indi
cate where those who are the flower of the
army of the United States will be found in
j the future. The closing words arc the
j following, snd have a special application to
| the Jacobin faction, who seem bent upon
exciting another civil war :
“Thnf our ohject in taking up arms to sitp
: press the late rebellion, was to defend and
I maintain the supremacy of the Constitution,
i and to preserve Inc Union with all (lie dieni
! ty, equality nud rights of the several .Stales
| unimpaired, and not in any spirit of oppres
sion, nor for any purpose of conquest or sub
jugation; nud that wherever there shall ho
any armed resistance to the lawfully constitu
! ted authorities of our national Union, either
[ in the South or in the North, in the. East or in
the ll'est, emulating the set /-sacrificing patriotism
I of our rcvoiutioimrg forefathers, tee will again
I pledge 1a its support our Hues, our fortunes, and
| our sacred honor.”
The soldiers, like the President, believes
that rebellion has “swung round the cir
' ole," and that the next manifestation of it
; is most likely to be found in the North and
1 Mast. Let the Wades, the Sumners, the
Steve uses and tire Wendell Phillipses take
warning.

Comets Cause op Cholera—The
newspapers have found that the blue mist
that folds with such delicate atmospheric
beauty about the hills, is a cholera reign,
or a cause of cholera. Prof. Lowe cues so
far as to say that this blue veil is the rag
ged trail of some unlucky comet, that has
been torn off by our liili tops, or gathered
in the clutches of the earth’s attraction,
and that the new chemical elements intro
duced in our atmosphere is the true cause
of the fatal pestilence.
AVe incline to the Professor’s opinion ;
not so much on account of its probability,
which is a matter of very little importance,
as because of the decided originality ol
the thing. It has long been a subject of
great regret to imaginative and nervous
people, that one of the various comets that
whirl through space has never condescend
ed to visit us, even at the expense of knock
ing the world into a cocked hat. Poe. in
one of his remarkable stories, actually
brings the comet into our atmosphere, and
by the introduction ol new elements or
gases, an instantaneous conflagration orex
plosion, by which the world and all therein
is comfortably destroyed in a flash. This
plan of Prof Lowe’s, though not so over
whelmingly fatal as the theory of his poetic
predecessor, has a great deal of the mar
velous in it, and enough probability to salt
it. li is likely that the tail or nucleus of
a comet, if it was to lodge on our earth,
would make some great change in the at
mosphere that would be fatal to man and
beasts; and. as comets in all ages have been
held to be the forerunners of pestilence,
why may there not be some grounds for
believing that the ancient philosophers, al
chemists, astrologers and speculators had
some facts to go on '! The comets did por
tend disease or epidemics, as they said, for
the simple reason that by their influence
on the vital air, we breath, they caused it.
Uur suffrages are given, theroiore, unani
mously in favor of .Mr. Lowe, and his blue
mist. The only draw-back is. perhaps, the
fact that mountain counties, where this
blue mist is most prevalent, are less sub
ject to epidemics; but, if the facts don't
agree with the theory, it is all the worse]
tor the facts.—Lonisvi lc Courier.
