CONGRESS OPPOSED TO INCREAS EJI TAXATION. . The Loan of 1858—Financial Schemes, &c. Washington, Dec. 14.—There is at present a general indisposition among merners of Congress to increase taxation. It will not be done unless the necessity oau be clearly shown. The recommends tion of the Secretary of the Treasury in his recent letter to Representative Dawes will be discussed by the Committee of Ways and Means at their meeting to-mor row. Several members of that committee j said there would be no hasty action upon ; the subject. The Treasury Department is somew’hat ! pressed for money, not only by the fall¬ ing off in the revenues, but by the extra ordinary appropriation of four or five million dollars for naval purposes, and fc'ie early approach of the redemption of the twenty million loan of 185b, a bill in re¬ lation to which is now pending between j the two houses of Congress. Over two- j thirds of this loan are in coupon bonds, which some of the holders are desirous of exchanging for five per cent, bondb of the funded loan. The Senate has set apart to-morrow for j discussion of the the finance question, the I majority of the Committee on Finance having on Wednesday reported a resolu j tion, having in view not only the redemw tion of the United States notes in coin, but measures which will furnish a ourren ey of uniform value in gold or its equtva lent, and so adjusted as to meet tht changing wants of trade and commerce. Members of Congress severally are now privately discussing the matter of currency. Borne of them have already introduced iu their respective houses bills or resolu¬ tions, containing such methods as would in their opinion afford the relief at pres ent required. A large number of them favor an increase of currency, either by releasing the Treasury or bank reserves, or an arrangement of what is called an elastio currency—to make currency and bonds at all times interchangeable accor¬ ding to business interests or necessities.

We learn from our special correspond¬ ent that the Patrons of Husbandry of Pike county assembled m convention at the Oily Academy in Troy, Ala., on Satur day last, holding a morning and evening session, the intermission being devoted to a “Basket Dinner” provided by the la dies of Troy for the delegates, Althougb the night had been stormy, and the morning dawned inauspiciously, there were delegates preseift from nearly every porlion of the county, and the greatest interest and enthusiasm was mail ifested in the objects of the meeting. Judge John A. Law, the efficient Master nf Darby Grange at Henderson, was made Chairman, and Capt, L. H. Bowles, asso ciate editor of the Troy Messenger, was selected to act as Secretary. Upon calling the roll it was found that eleven Granges were duly represented by delegates: Darby, Spring Hill, Little Oak, China Grove, Orion, Brundidge, Whitewater, Troy, Pea River, Tan Yard and Richland. A committee on general business, consisting of one delegate from each of these Granges, was appointed, w'ith W. C. Menefee, Esq., District Depu ty, as Chairman The following most ex oellent selection was made for this com mittee, as will be seen by the result of their labors: J. J. Darby, W. -J. McBride, J- L. Foster, M Etheridge, C. F. Bennett, U W. Hilliard, C. M. McRae, W. Rain a “ 6 ' U. N. King, S. J. Townsend and Q. f• Siler. After due consultation, these gentlemen presented the following reso¬ lutions: Resolved, That it is necessary to the well-being of the agricultural interest of this county, that each planter, in making contracts for labor, should so fix the agree¬ ment as to control the entire time of the laborer, during the periud for which he may be hired. Resolved, That this Convention suggest to the various Granges in this county, the adoption of resolutions recommending to their members that in pitching crops for 1874, they shall regard the necessity of planting a sufficiency of cereals to supply their farms and all their dependents, and as much cotton, in addition, as they may think proper; and that they also use their influence to secure the adoption of the same policy by such of their neighbors as are not members of the Grange. Resolved, That a committee of three be appointed by the Chairman of this Convention, who shall open a correspon¬ dence with the Western Patrons, on the subject of farm supplies, and report to the different Granges of the county, as soon as possible, the result .of their cor¬ respondence. recommend the Resolved, That we to different Granges of Pike county to adopt prompt and effective measures to put down night trading, or illicit traffic, in farm produce. Resolved, That in view of the hard times, we earnestly recommend to the men and women of our Order, that they use all the economy possible in matters to dress. Resolved, That we can make no report in regard to commercial fertilizers, except to ecommend that the members of our order make ail the home fertilizers they can; and if they are compelled their to buy commercial fertilizers, to let past experience guide them in making future purchases. Resolved, That the above resolutions be submitted to the subordinate Granges of the county, for their approval or rejection, as the case may be. Resolved, That the thanks of the Pat¬ rons of Husbandry are due the editors of the Troy Messenger, for the valuable aid rendered in disseminating general infor¬ mation in regard to the Order, and for the use of the columns of that paper for mat¬ ters of local interest; and that we will avail ourselves of its “Department for the Patrons of Husbandry,” for the purpose of inter-communication. Resolved, That the thanks of this con¬ vention are hereby tendered to the mem¬ bers of the Troy Grange, for the kindness and hospitality extended to the delegates in attendance from abroad. Resolved, That these resolutions, with a report of the proceedings of this con¬ veution, be published in the Tfuy Mes senger, and that a copy be sent to the Secretary of each Grange in Pike county. Although the convention contained many able and eloquent public speakers, work was the order of the day; and with¬ out any bumcombe speeches, but with a hearty unanimity, the resolutions of the committee were adopted, and the Chair¬ man appointed Worthy Master T. K. Mul¬ lins, Hon. J. R. Goldthwaite and Henry C. Wiley, Esq., of the Troy Grjnge, to open a correspondence with Grangers at the West, in regard to farm supplies, as set forth in the third resolution. This is a most excellent committee, and w 7 as se¬ lected entirely from the Troy Grange on account of the superior mail facilities at that point, it being the only Grange in the county situated on the railroad. It will be seen by reference to the other resolutions, that a conservative spirit governed the entire proceedings of the convention, and that the Order in Pike county is in a most healthy as well as a most flourishing condition. The success which has attended their first convention, field as it was under many unfavorable circumstances, gives rich promise for the future prosperity and increase of the Order of the Patrons of Husbandry in that section of Alabama, the home of W. C. Menefee, F.sq., the energetic and efficient j Deputy for the counties comprising the j second Congressional District.

Hays, “Go and Learn a Trade," for the “good it ought to do." When thousands of mechanics in all parts of the land are out of employment, and not a few of them nearing the verge of starva¬ tion, it seems very unwise to recommend to the young ladies that they sing the above named song to their gentlemen friends who “are without any visible means of support.” Would it not be wiser for them to tune their sweet voices to the following more practical song, which has the ring of the true metal in its words of advice to the unemployed throughout the land. The author has very appropri¬ ately inscribed this song to a most estima¬ ble and domestic young lady, Miss Bettie Alexander, the Flora of Oswichee Grange of the Patrons of Husbandry : The &ong I sing to you to-day, Is not to learn a trade; For I am sad the truth to say— That song aside is laid. The mills are running on half-time, The shops give forth no noise; And it is hard to find a dime Among the ’prentice boys. chorus. The song that I shall sing to you your .troubled hearts will calm; It you have nothing else to do “Go work upon a farm.” The stores are filled with Idle clerks, Because the times are dull; And he his duty plainly shirks— When shops and mills are fu l— W ho seeks to learn a trade, or tend The counter oi a store, In hopes the future yet will send A fortune to his door. CHORUS. All ! vain are all such hopes ae these, That surely end in harm; Don’t peek to sit ’neat.h shady trees— “Go work upon a farm." Oh ! why should men in cities pine, Or idly stay in town t Why loaf about and crossly whine, Tnat “things are upsi :e down?" Oan this bring bread to wife and child. And make the future bright? Can this turn the cold weather mild, Or furnish heat and light7 • CHORUS. Such men should lisien to my song. j And find in it a charm; It tells them how to get along— “Go work upon a farm.” Let no man starve for want of bread— ! The product of the sot!— For all oan still he amply fed. Who will but share the toll, The honest, manly toil that brings | The harvest season round, When the glad farmer gaily sings, Beoause of fruitful ground. ; CHORUS. : This, then, shall he the song we sing, i The whole world to alarm; And loudly let the chorus ring— | “Go work upon a farm."

As the greater portion of the cotton comes to the warehouses of Columbus, it will be gratifying to our merchants to . hear of the growing prosperity of our ! sister city.

Nor oan we predict from this excess that the crop generally has been brought to market. Collectors who have been riding through that sec are still to be seen about the gm houses, from which it is evident that the planters of Pike, and of the adjacent counties below, have made an excellent crop this year. rr I ,, hey are mostly men who i do t their •. own work, and whose families understand how to economise.
