INDIA COTTON. The recent report of the "Cotton Commissioner for the Central Pro vinces of India and the Berars," states that the '"rebellion" in Amer ica caused a material increase in the production of cotton in the regions named, and that the number of acres under' cultivation in 1867-8 was as follows: In the central provinces, 552,520 acres, and in the iVrars, 1,254,552, making an area ofl,S07,O72 acres, or 2823 square miles. Bombay, it ij stated, ex ports every year one million bales of cotton, ot which one-fourth comes from the provinces mentioned. The central provinces of India forming that portion called the Deccau, lie between the ICth and 23rd degrees of north latitude, and extend from the river Kisinah on the south to the Nerbuddah'jon tUe'northuThey are traversed Ipy numerous" rivers and small streams', and having a rich alluvial soil are very fertile. Only a small portion of this tract has yet been devoted to the culti vation of cotton. NEW ENOLA2W SLAVERY. The factory girljn jaeyera! parts of New England - are dissatisfied with the treatment they are re ceiving trom their employers. In Dover, NII., about six hundred have gone out on a strike, and,. a meeting ot female operatives in Lowell has sent messages of syinpa thy and support. According to the complaint of the chief speaker (Mis Collins) in old times the girls were treated like , human beings,f, "but lately the cotton" kings had become more avaricious, and In their wild rush for wealth, had forgotten . all honor and forsaken every feeling of humanity.

ItlnKontc Festival Yonug Man Accidentally II at Ilia Hand Blown off. ' Weldon, Dec. 28., 1869 Dear Star: The Masonic Festival at the Weldon Hotel last night was quite success; Capt. White and lady fully sus taining their well earned reputation for being equal to any emergency on such oc casions.'! - . .' , - . The dining room was handsomely ilece ratcd - with evergreens, and the various mottoes and emblems of the mystic tie dis played on all hands. The supper could hardly le surpassed. Everything that could tempt the palate of a hungry person was enjoyed by the joyous participants with a keen relish. During the repast, dispatches from the Lodges in Petersburg were received and read by Mr. Stone, which elicited vociferou9 applause and evoked a hearty response. That all were well pleased, and will leave invoking life's choicest blessings on Capt. White, all will willingly agree. We had the pleasure of meeting Capt. Charles of the Tarboro Southerner, wuo enjoyed the occasion wnh well-tiim d Zest, and sustained his ciiartfctrr as bring the 'gay boy," for uhicu "J. G.vha ever been noted. We would .judge trom his joyous demeanor that the "world goes-well with him." All with one accord will join ne in ten dering warm acknowledgments to Capt. White and the committee of arrange ments.

From a pa8sngef who;arrived here from the South oa the Chicago and ' St." Louis Railroad train, due here at . twenty five minutes past nine O'clock last night, we learn the particulars of one of the most brutal and shameless outrages we have ever been called on to chronicle. " At some point below Auburn five drun ken Irishmen got on the train and paid their lare to that point, after some' hesita tion. Tbeywere furnished with the ordi nary checks for,' way passengers, each check bearing a number signifying the station to which they had paid. After he train left Auburn the conductor (Clark) went through the train, and seeing the men still seated In the smoking car told them they had passed their station. They replied they were going to Chathan, the next station north of Auburn. Mr. Clark said they had paid to Auburn only, and must pay an additional fare if they wish ed to go further. They insisted they had paid to Chatham, but on being shown the tickets, which plainly proved they had paid to Auburn only, they assailed the conductor with the most brutal impreca tions, and declared they would rido to Chatham or anywhere they pleased, with or without fare. Upon this Mr. Clark left them and went to collect the . remainder of his fares before entering into any fur ther controversy. . , ... . ., But this apparently peaceful triumph only enraged the ruffians, and shortly af ter Mr. Clark left the car thev followed him for the purpose, .as they declared, of beating him. The leader of the gang found his way to the ladies' car, which he attempted to enter. lie was met by a brakeman, who opposed his entrance and who he, at one blow, knocked senseless. Jiy this umo the passengers were thoroughly aroused to the position.' The train was proceeding at full speed, and among peaceful passengers were five ruffians, whose ordinary brutality was in creased by whiskey; and by the peaceful demeanor of the conductor. The centles men, therefore, in the ladies' car sprang upon the intruder.: The first who ap proached him was knocked down and the conductor then assaulted and received a stunning blow. Another passenger then struck a heavy blow, which fortunately prostrated the brute, who was then beaten senseless. The passengers seeing their assailant helpless, then turned their attention to the other cars, where an active battle was going on between the other , four rioters and the passengers. In a moment or two the brakeman who had been first knocked down approached the leader of the gang, who was still in the ladies' car, and struck him some fearful blows; the passenger al so wiio had been struck seized the poker tint gave the villain some crushing blows. Bv this time the train h.id stopped at Chrttham and the other passengers in the ladies' car, to save the lite of the worthless brute who whs again seuseless, took him up aud put him out of the car. They had ardly done so when a shower ot stones aud billets ot wood came flying through the car windows, smashing the glass and injuring several passengers, among others two ladies and one or more children. Itecms that the passengers in the for ward cars had driven the rioters off the train, and that they were taking this method of revenge. The ladies and chil dren were hastily stowed in the safest places in the car, while the men prepared to repulse this new attack. They had hardly done so when the leader of the gang, having partially recovered from his former punishment, came into the car and began hurling the billets ot stove wood at its occupants. The passengers at once assailed him, and in a short time disabled him. They held him for a short time while search was made for a pistol or knife with which to kill him, but none could be found on the train, bo he was thrown on the platform. As the tram moved oft he arose from the ground and attempted to get on again, but one of the men employed on the tram struck him a disabling blow with a heavy bottle, which stretched him senseless and bleeding on the ground. i While this last encounter was in pro gress the passeugers and trainbands drove off the rioers who were assailing the ladies' car frcm the outside, so that with the defeat of the leader the affair was over. Our informant states that the battle lasted while the train was standing at Chatham some twenty minutes. "We are not inform ed of the extent of the injuries received bv the passengers.' One man received a severe face wound, others were more or less bruised, and as we mention above, several ladies and children were hurt. On the whole it is as brutal and, causeless an affirav as we have eve-heaza-vof. and in view of the possible repetition of such out rages the officers of the company should provide the train men arms Buitaoie to re pel such attacks and protect peaceful pas sengers. s . i - Pgr Koskoo f The 4 G real "Blood' and Liver Medicine !
