Labor, ; of coursu, coiiiinandcd a price' com paratively beyond what had hitherto been known in the planting nml farm ing districts, ranging from $15 to gL'O per month, with rations, for tirst cIiirs tit-Id hands. Tho short crop of S(jiJ dinpellod the illusion entertained by .' many capitalists of rapidly accumula ting a fortune, and in many cases utterly ruined planters and adventur ers, who hud invested their all in a single crop. Yet there was a sufli cieut number who regarded their losses ns the result of an exceptional 1 auiieofl, added to the number of land holders who determined to risk the result of another year's planting to maintain the high rate of wages of the previous year, and tho contracts, . where wages were the-consideration, ranged from f 15 to f20 per month ; and where the land was tilled on aluircs the planters agreed to lurnith (he land, animals, utensils, and, in many cases, forag, tho freedmcn fur nishing the labor. In most of these cases, the laborer buying no subsist ence and no credit, the plan tern agreed to become reson!tiblo lor the supplies ' necessary for the laborer and his tnm ily, the amount lo be deducted from the enure of the laborer when the crops were gathered. In t'onccriuenco of the dry weather and worms the crop of 107 has not exceeded half of what was regarded na an average crop, and that has not commanded but ono half of tho price of the previous year, thus reducing tho proceeds to one-fourth of what was unlioiputcd by tho planter and freedmun as the proceeds of the year's labor. The result is the financial ruin of tho planter and capitalist, and dis content of tho laborer. In cases whore laborers worked for Stated wages thero is but little com plaint or discontent on the part ot the trecdm.cn, remuneration having gen erally been received by tho laborer either in money or supplies, or if not paid tho claim can be easily establish ed or adjudicated, and if the planter has the Means the claim can bo col lected. Where tho laborer has work ed for a share of the crop, endless liti gation has been the consequence. The laborer, being without means, has generally been furnished the necessary supplies by the planter, or on his secu rity. On gathering tho crop it has in a nuiprityof cases been ascertained that tho tdiaro of the laborer does not pay his indebtedness for supplies ad vanced, and instead of receiving a dividend he is in debt. This causes great discontent and a conviction, perhaps well founded in some instan ces, oi dishonesty and fulse accounts on tho part of planters, but this can not generally be the case. Instances have occurred where, the planters have entirely abandoned the crop lo the laborers, losing their time, tho uso of their animals und implements, and the supplies advanced. Cases have been brought to my attention of planting where not only tho entiro crop has been turned over to the laborers to satisfy their claims, but also tho mules and implements used in its production. The result of this conditiun of i. (fairs is the utmost universal determination of planters to abandon the culture of cotton, and even if they wished to prosecute il another year, it would, 1 apprehend, be impossible for them to procuro further advance of tho neces sary supplies from any merchant, so prevalent is the conviction that cotton cannot bo. produced at the present prices. The next year tho land in cultiva tion will be almost entirely devoted to , corn, which requires but about onc fiflh of tho labor demanded by cotton, therefore four-fifths of the laborers required last year will be thrown out 01 employment, and of courso there ! will bo a corresponding decrease- of v.igcs. This tho freedmcn do not I , preeiate, considering it tho result of. iiiiiuiniiiioii ouciruuu tnemoi wnai f consider just wages.

To deny the civil au thorities tho exorcise of this right is lo placo the freedmcn above tho recog nised government of the Hlalo. It is a matter of very great doubt whether, in tho present condition of n fi'uirs, tho civil authorities, unaided by the military, will be able to main tain order and execute the law. Civil process can only bo served in tho ordinary manner whero offenders are tho exception and the law is sustained by public opinion ; but in tho present ruined condition of labor in this Htate thousands are without labor, und must Kiibsist ; consequent!)-, depredation is the rule and honesty tho exception, while, on th other hand, to treat us vagrants four-fifths of tho community is pimply impracticable. JJut these are matters for your con sideration and of the law-making power rather than for me, whoso functions are entirely executive, and to you 1 submit the case, merely with the surmise that it w ill be impossible to inaugurate any system for tho relief of tho blacks which is ununimously approved by the whites. There is Another subject worthy ol attention in this connection. There seems to be a wide spread belief, which is dailv incroasing nmo::g tho frced- inen, that the land in this State is to bo divided and distributed among them, and in some sections of the State this illusion is assuming a prac tical form, by tho freedmcn refiling to contract lor the next year, or to leave t lie premises they liavo cultiva ted this year. It is to bo feared that this course, induced by evil disposed advisers, may lead to collisions, the extent and result of which it is ditlictilt to surmise. , I receive almost daily petitions and memorials asserting tho cxistenco o( organized companies of freedmcn, and asking the prcsenco and protection of troops, and although J am satisfied that theso representations are gener ally tho result of fear and exaggerated rui.ors, j-et tho existence of such organizations in some sections of tho .Stalo is certain. Commanders of troops and agents of the bureau have been instructed to urge upon the freed mcn tho absolute necessity of abstain ing from armed demonstrations; that they will bo protected in nil their rights, but that I hoy must not seek redress by force or violence In order to avoid as far as possible bringing the races in collision with each other, I have advised thut when ever practicable the "posse" summon- ed to assist in an nrrcst shall be of tho sumo raco as tho person urrcsted. 1 nm, (icncrnl, very respectfully, Your obedient servant, ALVAK O.

Macbeth was a Highlander, from lliglaiid county, Ohio. Ho was dis tantly related to the llighlandsof tho Hudson. He early emigrated to Scot hind, whero ho first attracted atten tion as a brigadier of militia. Ono night whilo crossing a lonely moor, coming homo from u general muster (pretty well peppered), ho was accost ed by throe witches, one of whom cried, "All hail Macbeth, Thane of t'lam Chowdeit!" whilo anolhorsalui odjhim "King of tho Cannibal islands." They all united in a chorus of "JIo ko poka, waka, rum," all of which had the ell'ect to greatly inflame the am bition of the General.. .Thane ho was already, but there was one slight dif ficulty in the way of his being king, the position was tilled. DuEcun held the throne, and it was evident to tho most casual observer that Hunciin wasn't such a donkey us to abdicate in fuvori ol Mac or any other man. He wrote to his wifo about it, hinting that ho would liko tho situation of king, should there bo a vacancy having hold al most every other office, from alderman ol his natjvo village, up. ilrs. Macbeth was a strong-minded fcmalo, generally understood by tho neighbors to wear tho breeches. Sho couldn't wait for Huncan to puss away in tho regular course of nature, so she egged Macbeth on to hasten his demise and possess tho throno. An opportu nity soon offered. The King ono night having remained down town until the cars had slopped running, was forced to slay over night at the Macbeth ros idenco. Mrs. Macbeth showed him every attention. She gave him the spare bedroom off from the parlor; she had a fire built in the parlor store ; hot water for him to wash in, kc. When, tho good king had retired, Macbeth and his wife consulted to gether as to the best plan for remov ing him fjin a world of trouble. It was at length arranged that shoshould get hisservHiits drunk on "upplo-jack" while he carved the aged Ihinean. She would have done it herself, she said, had he not resembled Macbelh's father-in law, as he slept. Macbeth steals on tip too to tho king's bed-ehumber ami shortly re turnsawith nj'luggcrineuch hand.stain ed with scopeborry juice. The deed is executed und Mnnipod. nnd only re quires to be registered. Ho was very pale nnd trembled violently, being seized with that remorse of conscience w hich every villain feels after com mitting crime, until hois satisfied that he isn't going to bo caught at it. He is troubled about the scopeberry juice on his hands, anil wants to know if there is water enough outsido of tempcruiico organizations to wash it off. She tells him tnat a little turpen tine will easily fix that. He starts at every sound, and seems to heara voice which says, "Sleep no more ! Macbeth doth murder Mccp," Winslow'e sooth ing syrup would be unavailing in the future to insuro to him a quiet nap. Disgusted with his timidity, she snatches the daggers from his hands, and, bearing them to the front parlor, places them by tho sides of tho kill's servants, who uro drunk undor the piano. That is for tho purpose of fast ening suspicion upon them as the guil ty parties, it being the well-known custom of murderers to lie down and go to sleep, immediately after butch cniig a gentleman, with the gory nn- plements of their profession in their bands.

Ho ws therefore feasted and honored, and was tno .Magnus Apollo, tho adored idol of the liritish populace.
