It ia oont aided that a newspaper man ean alwayi tell what sort of a woman a man marries, by the way jts treats the printer. Ifhe gets a campion wife, bo forgets the printer altogether. If he gets a tolerably good wile, be will send in the notice of his marriage. If he gets a very good one, ho will send the printer a slice of cake accompanying the notioe. If he gets an extra good one, he will send a greenback with tho notioe. And if he gets a glorions. angelic croatore—all affec tion and goodness—he is sure to send the printer a gold or silver dollar with tho notice of his happiness. Kertuar. It is evident that the entire Internal Rcvennq system should !>e very thoroughly revised. It is cumbrous, costly, and cor rupt. It discourages and often exasper ates tlie people, depraves the moral sense of the community, and weakens confidence in the Government. The same course should be adoptctf witii the import duties. Wc are convinced that abundant means can be procured for the purposes of the Government without impeding industry or enterprise. If the heavy hand of taxa tion would be lifted, every department of industry would feel the influence. Spring. We heartily unite with the poet Thom son in his welcome—“ Come, gentle Spring." The almanacs before us concur in fixing the commencement of tho seasons as follows : Spring begins March 20th; Summer, June 20th ; Autumn, September 22d ; and Winter, December 21st. As yet, March has not favored us with “ ethereal mildness''; but the sunshine that gladdened us yesterday was a reminder that the season for farming operations is about to open. And if wo may presume to counsel onr friends upon whose shoulders the great farming interest (upon which all of our industries depend) rests, we would urge them all to devote themselves to the great work of production as they have never done before, and to employ as much negro labor as they can manage profitably. A big crop this year will pay old debts, taxes, wages of hirelings, and yield besides a support for the farmers and their fami lies. This, followed by a correspondisg crop the next year, will place our farmers before hand, and enable them to invest liberally in fertilizers and labor-saving machinery. We would also advise diver sified crops, so that everything may be produced that is needed on the farm, and so that if one crop fails another may be ready to supply the deficiency. Deduction. From a notice in the Richmond Whiff, we see that the Richmond and Fredericks burg railroad has materially reduced it s rates of tolls on many of the principal articles of freight—the reduction to take place on the first of March. One of the most cheering indications of the times is the disposition evinced by our railroad companies, one after another, to adjust their tariffs to the necessities of trade. We must not permit ourselves to be discouraged if they fail at one advance to reach the true standard. Progress in such affairs is usually gradual, and if not too gradual, slow and reluctant, we should be content —always demanding that it shall at each stop advance nearer to the desired point. We have frequently alluded to the trans portation charges on our railroads in con nection with production and commerce, and contended that the true policy is to reduce them to the lowest paying point. The less the tax on production, the more will be produced, transported and thrown, into market. Every advance made towards this policy by our enterpaizing railroad companies is a recognition aM vindication of its wisdom and necessity. The Value of Advertising;. The sale of valuable articles is always dependent on the extent to which it is known, and the most brilliant examples of success in business are those afforded by men who have taken advantage of this fact. We were forcibly struck with this truth a day or two since in hearing of the present immense and increasing sale of a standard article, which for nearly twenty years has been known and esteemed only by a few. .A gentleman, acquainted with its merits, convinced that to secure a widely-extended patronage, and at the same time to confer benefits on suffering humanity, it only needed to be known, secured an interest in tho article some eighteen months ago, and advertised it in a number of papers and periodicals. Tho result was beyond bis most sanguine ex pectations. Whoever read, bought, and what was better, whoever bought acknow ledged the excellence of the article, and warmly recommended it to their friends. A good thing, once fairly set afloat, thus increases its own reputation. From a trade of a few nnndrcd dollars a month in 1866. the business has increased, till now the sales reach over $300,000 a year, and are steadily increasing, and tho amount paid for advertising in some 2,000 of the best newspapers, magazines, and periodi cals throughout tho country, reaches nearly half that sum.

THE CONVENTIONS, GEORGIA. Atlanta, March 3.*-Th® Convention, to-day, completed the Judiciary depart menf of the Conatitution. The Governor baa the appointment of a Notary Publio in each judicial district, having the funotiona of a Justice of the Peace. This is the an tidote to the election by the peoplo of Justices of the Peace, which has heretofore been provided for. A reconsideration of tbo remedy is not improbable. The formation of volunteer oompauies is authorized, but a man may escape militia duty at a small expense. SOUTH CAROLINA. Charleston, March 3.— ln the Conven tion to-day, there was an animated dis cussion as to whether the education of children shall be compulsory. An at tempt was made by a strong faction to force colored children into schools and colleges among whites. A petition will go forward to Washing ton to-morrow, asking Congress to give unredeemed lands on the coast, sold for taxes, to destitute freedmen. Congressional. Washington, March 3. — Senate. —The Senate Finance Committee were directed to inquire into the expediency of repealing taxes on incomes and manufactures. The clerk of the House announced the passage of impeachment articles and the appointment of managers. The Secretary of the Senate was directed to inform the House thatr the Senate was ready. The bill funding the national debt wps resumed. After an executive session, ad journed. House.— A bill was introduced, tinder the regular call, by Mr. Blaine, to build levees on the eastern bank of the Mississippi, and to reclaim overflowed land. Joint resolution protecting industrial in terests. Resolution requesting as much speed in impeachment as compatible with justice. Resolution increasing twenty per cent, the tariff on wines, spirits, and manufactures of cotton, wool, silk, and iron. A bill was introduced by Roum, of Illinois, to construct a railroad from Cairo, Illinois, to Rio Grande, and to provide homesteads along the road. A memorial from the Wisconsin Legis lature was read, to connect the waters of Lake Michigan and Mississippi river. The Judiciary Committee was directed to inquire whether Congress has power to regulate freights on roads running from one State to another. A motion to suspend the rules to admit a protest against impeachment was lost, by a vote of 49 to 72. The Impeachment managers introduced two additional articles. The seventh of the first series being stricken out, these are known as ten and eleven. They were adopted by a strict party vote. 1 lie tenth is Butler’s, charging the President with misdemeanors in speeches while swinging round the circle. Eleventh is comprehensive, charging the President with saying in 1866, in Wash ington, that “Congress was illegal, and could only act so far us he chose to recognize it," and the violation of two or three hills in efforts to keep Stanton out, after the Senate had overruled his reasons for su pervision. This article includes Stevens’ charges, which failed yesterday. Managers arc- authorized to send for persons and papers. Adjourned. From Washington. Washington, March 3.--The rules of procedure were adopted, after an amend ment taking from the Chief Justice a de cision on preliminary and interlocutory questions. All are referred to the Court and decided without decision, unless the yeas and nays are demanded by one-fifth. If Senators desire to argue such questions, the Court will be cleared. The Republicans who voted against re stricting the Chief Justice were Anthony, Morrill of Vermont, Sherman, Sprague, and Williams. Stevcnr, alluding to his additional ar ticle, which ho claimed was omitted by mis take, and which was killed by the arrival of the hour when amendments and speeches must cease, said : ‘lf there be shrewd law yers, as I know there will be, and cavilling Judees, and if, without that article, they do not acquit him, they are greener than ever I was when I commenced to practice at the Court of Quarter Sessions. - ’ Lewis Wolfley was nominated to-day for assessor ot internal revenue for the first district of Louisiana. His nomination to-day was referred to the Finance Com mittee with strong probability of confirma tion. The event is important, as showing continued intercourse between the Senate and the Executive. Bingham is selected chairman of im peachment. Stevens received the lowest vote on bal lot for managers. Colonel Dan’l E. Sickles is ordered to report to General Hancock to take com mand of the Twentieth Infantry. Stanton left the War Department for a few minutes for the first timo since Febru ary 21st. Brief Cabinet session to day. Revenue to day, nearly a million The debt statement will show several millions increase. Barnum’s Museum Burned. New York, March 3,—Baruum’s Museum, with the curiosities and most of the animals, was burned last night. Loss, $500,000.

[From the Circular ot Wm. Bryco & Cos. New York C olton Review, New York, February 28, 1868. General Remarks. —The daily and weekly receipts at the ports continue to bo most closely watched, and exert the most powerful influence on prices. The late rise seems to have had little effect on shipments from the interior, although if prices had not arisen, the amount coming forward might have been less. It is generally believed that current rates will bring out very nearly all the crop made, and that tho repeal of tho tax in September will throw a much smaller proportion of the past year’s crop into this year’s count than was anticipated when quotations wero much lower than at pres ent. Some sections begin to report cotton as scarce, and next month would show a material reduction in the woekly receipts. We would again urge upon our friends making consignments to our address to send do us direct the original tax receipts, as those documents are necessary to obtain Cotton on its arrival here from tho Internal Revenue Department. The fact of tho bales being tagged and marked “tax paid” is not deemed sufficient evidence by the Department, and in case tho tax receipts axe not forthcoming, the tax has to be repaid hero, or the Cotton placed in public store, which occa sions much annoyance and delay to both con signee and consignor. Tho old rules relating to tho delivery of Cotton from vessels, as estab lished by the Custom House, are entirely set aside, and the regulations referred to above are peremptory. It is likewise of advantage to have the shipping mark as well as the planter’s mark distinctly expressed in the permit. [Advertisement.] Tapers Wanted.
