Little, Brown A Boston, hare sent to us the Tax payers Manuel, containing the entire revenue laws, with tables of taxation, exemption, stamp duties, etc It is a sort of bird's eye view of the great national incubus that nets upon the land. 1 The Cotton Worm Our country exchangee record reports of the cotton worm in many parishes, but planters generally believe it will do no serious injury. A Midsummer's Sabbath Yesterday was very warm all the day not such heat they have in the North, but such a day as it is unwise to be out exposed to the sun. Our people, therefore, did well in remaining quietly at their homes, in the enjoyment of holier pleasures than are found in the world outside. 'In the early rooming and cool of the evening a great many people went to the lake and on other pleasant excursions, and towards large numbers of little ones met together and bad "a high old tune" in the public parks and gardens.

Not one of them said a word of public affairs all was private, confidentially private and yet their con versation was far more interesting and important to the Crescent City than all Or It is singular how rumois start without foundation, and prevail even after the toe rises and passes away. Comiutr the river (his morning we heard that there were fresh disturbances in the city. When we got to the city we were told that there wasTi band of 1000 negroes camped back of Algiers This is something like the time when the Confederates were reported, in 1664, to be within four miles of Algiers, and their raised on some stupendous staff, to be readily seen flying at that dis tance from the city. Why will people giv credence to rumors? tW The card of Mr. G.

H. Flagg, in another column, deserves attention. He came out here as a member of the 8th Ver mont Begiment, and, after fulfilling his term of service, settled in Algiers. He We presume there will be no doubt of his being a Union man at least there is in Algiers. His declaration that he has no sympathy with the Radicals is consonant with his frequent declarations in our presence long since made.

We had not seen or conversed with him, during the pending agitation, of sign of making, through it, 'new constitu tional provisions, but we have often heard that ho had no desire to lend himself to any such purposes. Today we hear this from his own lips. His card, elsewhere, is explicit as to his views. He avers himself to us to be unqualifiedly opposed to any effort to alter or do away with the constitution of 1864 by its own architects, or to any claim of continuing authority on behalf of its members. Arrived FROM Pensacola.

The steamer N. P. Banks, Capt. S. Pepper, arrived this evening from Pensacola with the following hat of passengers IUm Louise Surgi and la steerage.

J. Madison Wells, Governor. The correspondence by telegraph between the President and Gov. Wells, of this State, in reference to the authority upon which the Convention of 1864 has been voked, comes to us in Western papers. We have hitherto only had a brief and very incomplete notice.

The letter of the Gov ernor is a curiosity. The amount of infor nation which it gives the President, is adapted literally to the exact phraseology of the President was asking for. What the President really desired to know is, whence came the authority for recalling this old Convention. The answer of Gov. Wells is that of the boy at school, who was caught whistling in school time, stout ly denied it, and vowed "it whistled itself' The Convention convened itself; all the Governor has done is to follow orders.

Just here the material facts, for the use of the President, are left These are: That the Convention was the product of a military order ot Uen. Hanks, under tial law. The order was executed, and the Conven tion thereby ceased. There could be no authority civ anybody to call it together for any purpose but it did give directions to its presiding gency, which did not occur. The presiding officer so decided, and refused to respond to the demands of a score or two of the members, to recognize the Convention as subsisting, or call another The malcontent minority thereupon.

ing as though they were a convention, turned out the President, and twenty five of them made a President pro tern. This is the President pro tern, of a paltry fraction of a convention, whieh expired two years ago, who issued the orders for a new session of that old concern, to create a new constitution for the State, His are directions Gov. Wells assumes to be his authority for filling: up the convention and constituting it a power above the constitution as it is, and the people of the State who made it. This is the state of the question which the President desired the Governor to con firm or deny, and the answer he gets is simply that this rump of Radicals say it is all right, and he is simply doing their woik. The President, we believe, has better intelligence of the true state of the facts, and probably did not expect any better answer than he got.
