The plant is a native of Java, and was first brouglit to Europe in 1844, where, by the beauty and strength of its fibre, it re- ceived much attention in manufacturing circles. It is now stated that a considerable quantity is annually received there and manufactured into fabrics of the finest quality, excelling linen in strength, boauty aud finish, and rivalling silk in lustre.

Several Americans and other foreignersare among the parties now in custody. Thos. Terry, the weaithi- est merchant on the island, was arrested, but subge- quently released. It 1s reported that he has offered to Captain General Dulce his entire possessions to aid the government in the suppression of the revo- lution. Prominent Cubans continue to emigrate from the island in large numbers. A portion of the insurgents in the district of Cien- fuegos are marching towards Hawai-Grandee, in the Colon district.

Muscovadoes are buoy- ant: refining $a9 reals, Exchange on London 16% a 173 per cent premium; on the United States, sixty days’ sight, in currency, 23 @ 2r_ cent discount; short sight, 20% a 193¢ per cent dis- count; sixty days, in gold, 5 a 53% per cent premium; short sight, 73 per cent premium. The great disadvantages of cotion culture in our Southern States now are, first, that the labors of a cotton planiation are continuous from the beginaing of January to the ending of December, involving the payment of twelve months’ wages to the agricultural laborer; and, second, that this unexampled cost of labor does not by any means secure a crop, as the cotton plaut is very sensitive toan excess both of rain and dry weather and is the frequent prey of the army worm. With these disadvantages the cotton platter rarely makes a profitable crop oftoner than one season in three. If, therefore, he can find a substitute for the cot- ton plant, which shall give him equal market- able returns, with less‘cost of production and less liability to Injury from natural causes dur- ing growth, he will be very likely to let cotton slide and turn his attention to the new article’ of production. j Allof these advantages are claimed in be- half of the textile ramie. In a pamphlet now hefore us it is stated that the soil and climate of the Southern States are particularly adapted to its culiivation; that the plant will not be hurt by long contiayed wet or dry weather ; thatits fibre, being: contained in the inner bark, cannot be injured by the cotton worm; that small capital is require¢ to cultivate it, as it is easily propagated and cultivated, requiring no attention after becoming two feet high, and, being perennial, does not require replanting ; and that three crops can be harvested a year, each producing from nine to twelve hundred pounds of crade fibre per acre, which will sell at present for ten cents, gold, per poaud in Europe. These are immense advantages in favor of the ramie, and if even one-half of them can be obtaiged cotton will soon be ban- ished from our Southern plantations and a new process of reconstruction established. What are now to be demonstrated are facile and cheap processes for breaking the stalk and machinery for cardipg and spinning the fibre. We may safely count on the inventive faculty of this mechanical age to produce these, The first piece on the programme was Suppe’s overture, “Poet and Peasant,” which was rendered by the Brooklyn Amateur Philhar- monic Society mm @ manner that called forth Peni] Soe eae get bar gpa et other com ere performed equally wel Mr, i “The Grenadiers,” by Reis- siger, and it need not bé said was encored, as was also Miss Agatha States, after she had rendered a from the Sicilian Vespers, Of course the principal attraction ot the evening, as he always is whenever his name appears on ja programme how. ever else composed, Was Ole Bull. His music was of every mood, walling now like the inconsolable littie Gretchen beiore the image of Mater Doloroso, and now in a frolic mood as dny reveler at a Roman carnival. His first piece was one of his own com- ition “Contabile Doloroso e Rondo Gracioso.” en he had finished it he was called k, and gave the finest ‘formance of the en- ing, a8 the perfect mee of the house and the eyes that could not keep back an obtru- sive tear plainly showed. Had it been said deed goer of paradise had for a moment stood ajar, that the sounds that were lieard were the choral harmonies stealing thence, it would have been asaying, not now perhaps, but at that moment, not dimcuit of belief, for indeed it reminded one of nothing so much as of those delightful words—the most delightful in the English tongue—with which Banyan pictures the lene Beulah, The next piece on the programme which he gave was the “Carnival of Venice,” and no more vivid idea of that wild out- burst of everything that can ill brdok restratnt just a8 the shadow of Lent ts brooding near, when the streets are alive with men and women in jue costumes and the air is thick with missiles or raining sugar plams, could be given by pen or pencil than he gave on his violin. Musical and Theatrical Notes. Stephen Massett, alias “Jeems Pipes,” of Pipes- ville, who has been “drifting about” the world for years, is at present recuperating his health and for- tune in this vicinity. Ou Monday evening next the veritable ‘‘Jeems” will be tendered a complimentary testimonial concert at the Atheneum, Brooklyn, by his many friends in that city, upon which occasion he will regale them with his humorous sketches in “China and Japan.” It is supposed that the Collectorship of New York ora foreign minister’s appointment awaits the man who first nominated Grant, if the man can be dis- covered. We have found him. He is no unwashed del- egate from the perstmmon bottoms of Hoosterdom, but a minstrel whose songs have thrilled a nation, Five years ago “Dan Emmett, the Ethiopian delinea- tor, gave to the world a negro melody in which occur these prophetic lines:— 4 U, stands for Union, 'S. for Uncle Sam; But U. 8.

He said that the nations of Europe in attaining a higher degree of civilization turew off the tra- dition&l bonds which fettered the public mind. ‘Spain delayed for a long time following the example of her neighbors. She now calls on her representa- tives to construct a new edifice. The revolution has achieved a bloodiesa victory. The strength of the nation has not been impaired; but the extravagance of former administrations bas disorganized and embarrassed its finances. The governinent reliés upon the Cortes to remedy this by econom- ical reforms and changes in the adminis- tration by wise legislation in regard to the public debt and the payment of the,| interest thereon and by economizing the expenses of the army and navy. The fundamental princl- ples of radical liberalism which had been adopted in relauion to religion, the press and education by the provisional government must now be consolidated by the action of the Deputies. Our revolution here is not responsible for the rising in Cuba. That is due to the errdts of past governments. He expressed the hope that the insurrectiom there would oe speedily extinguished, and that tranquillity, based on reform, would be durable. He predicted that slayery would be abol ished without precipitation and without compro- mising the prosperity of the Antilles. In conclusion he congratulated the country on the good relations with foreign nations, now more intimate than ever before. The Marquis of Santa Cruz Presided at the Opening of the Cortes—Kepublican and Monarchical Manifestations. MADRID, Feb, 12, 1869. At the opening of the Cortes the Marquis of Santa Cruz presided, and a salute of twenty-one guns was fired. During Marshal Serrano’s speech these were vivas “for the provisional government, for General Prim, for a republic and fora monarchy. The confusion was great, but was finally queiled by Serrano cry- ing viva for the sovereignty of tite Cortes. A grand review of the troops!was held subse- quently and the members of the Cortes attended a Te Deum in the Basilica of our Lady of Atocha. THE EASTERN QUESTION. Troubles Brewing in the Far East—Move- ments of the Persian and Turkish Armiés.

Information’ was recetved here to-day by the Su- pervisor of Internal Revenue wiat a large. amount ol contraband tobacco had been received here from North Carolina and Virginia. Revenue officers were detailed to seareh for it. During the day nearly every prominent house in the tobacco trade was vis- ted, and ping tobacco to a large amount seized and held to awati further examination. “COLLEGE OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK. Exhibition by the Junior Chis. © If any evidence were wanting of the popularity.of the Free College, a visit to Steinway Hal! last even- ing would have. given it. Latterly the college has been subjected to the aspersions of ignorant, impo- it and impudent Bohemians, who have asserted it the taxpayers demanded its discontinuance, that it is an expensive and entirely useless Inxury, that, in short, it is a fgilure, and should at once be done away. The coliege appears in pub- lic twice each year, immediately after the close of the winter examination, when members of the junior class give an exhibition of oratory, rhe- toric and logic, and then at tne close of the scholas- tic year, when the. graduating ciass ba ga at the “commencement.” ‘These setai-annual exhibttions have ever been the occasions of drawing together crowds of the citizens of the metropolis, and at each the expressions of popular approval have been given im such emphatic wanner as to do away at once with any doubts that might be entertained of the meral esteem with which the institution 1s re- ‘ded. Last evening was no exception to the ruic. iteinway Hall was crowded in every part by a tho hly representative metropolitan audience,and on the platform with the faculty of the college and officers and members of the Board of Education were @ number of the most venerable and infuential citi- zens, Previous to the cominencement of the exer- cises there were distributed copies of a burlesque programme which had, no doubt, been prepared by some Sunburnt youth, or some! ee ar a more doliars than sense, and utterly devoid of dignity, showing conclusively that lie or non f had pot been long, if at all, connected with the college. ‘The exercises were commenced with some beautt- ful music by Grafulla’s band, after which the Rev. Dr. Montgomery delivered an impressive prayer. THE CUBAN REVOLUTION. Expedition to Aid the Insurgents. JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Feb. 12, 1869. For some time past a number of Cuban gentlemen have been in this city under suspicious circum- stances, Op the 7th instant they chartered the steamer Henry Burden, giving out that she was bound for Nassau. About the same time a steamer arrived from Charleston, laden with coal, and hauled alongside the Henry Burden, The work of emptying the coal into the latter vesse! was immediately com- menced and continued ail night, after which she went to sea, nevis cleared for Nassau. It 1s pretty well known that the Burden hasa quantity of fcms and other munitions of war on board, and that large sums of money have been offered for volunteers to ship on board of her. There is no doubt that the vessel is bound for Cuba to enlist in the servive of the insurgents, THE NEW DOMINION. Organization to Rescue the Body of Whalen— Seizure of Arms. Orrawa, Feb. 12, 1863.
