The lead ers to too false cause that brought about his - fall had no honor, no smypathy for him, while those that once clung to his political fortunes have grown Indifferent, nod lone their tract in him. And thus he lives an unenvia ble, lotieseme, hopeless eziatence, embittered, beyond all doubt, by the communes. of hav en, by one talie step, mfitcted a stain upon his record that obscures all slay of his past, and can never be fully wiped out. To appreciate all thin, it must be known that John Bell bus public reunciation of loyalty to the Union to the contrary notwithstanding, has neither heart nor hand in the great South ern rebellion. He goes with his section, not because he thinks it is right, but beassise it is his notion. He pronounces himself s Hebei— hosiever, not one of choice. He believes, or least est:acmes the opinion, that the "MST subjegation".undertalfen by the North wrong, but on the other hand, looses no opportuni ty to declaricg the Southern revolution un justified. Wheliver be TOILS places of public resort, he takes occasion to denounce the Jefferson Davis dynasty in unmeasured terms.

The hest.% Departmens--La Monist&ln's galloon tteeounomaanoe. The balloon department to the-army Bonin on the Potomac Is becoming one of considera ble importance. Li litoantaia, the boldest of our aeronauts, has just furnished valuable in. formation to the government and Gen. McClel lan by fie late daring flight. On Friday last, It may be remembered, a balloon was seen pass ing over Wathington, and it was thought by many to bora started from the rebel camp on an astiarreconnoluanee ; but as it subeequestly descended in Maryland, it proved to be the air ship of La Mountain, which had ascended from the Union camp of the Potomac. It appears that "then La Mountain rose to a certain Mi noltas, he cat the rope which connected his bal loon liith the earth, regardless of tee danger, and soared up to an elevation of a mile and a half, and got directly over the rebel lines. Here he was enabled to make a perfect observation roratesultsetr osition and all their movemenu, the r of p as which be h coutinnnicated to head quarter', and which are said to be of the Utmost importance. When La Mountain completed his observation be threw out sufficient ballast to enable him to rise to a height of three miles, when he fell in with a counter current which curle passing overd him back t° in thWase directhington and c oming down in safety. This isprobably the most im portant aerial reconnoissa p nce on record. Cotton Culture In the Sandwich Islands. The cultivation of cotton is . to be tried on a new field. Late advices from the Sandwich Islands state that King Kameta maha has retired to his country seat at 'Kona the purpose Of devoting himself principally to experiments with cotton. The IlonoMkt "Commercial Advertise:" says : "The King has recently purchased some cotton seeds, aud intends to appropriate a portion of his land to the cultivation of cot too, SO as to give it a fair trial, though he says he has not much faith that the islands are to be suddenly enriched by this branch of agriculture, but is ready and anxious to take the lead, and give the force of his ex ample. Like every other new branch of industry, money must be expended and lost in experimenting ; and when the necessary experience is gained, some one will succeed in making cotton growing profitable."' • ANNUAL ACKIBEGATIL OF A SOLDICB's PAY.—Suppose a privato to have served one year, and that being the end of the war, his account with the Government re duced to a cash valuation, would stand about thus For 12 months' pay at $l3 month. $156 For 12 months' commutation for clothing at 3i 42 For 12 months' commutation lot ra tions, $l2 144 100 For bounty For grant of 160 &cresol laud (in pros pect) valued, say at 1 . 60 Total kr dui year .$602 - And supposing his average travel from the_ place of enrollment to the place of muster to be 200 miles, he recetrea .
