Money is a hard Thing to boirow.
Tuns—“ Same as Jordan.”
The limes are so “ tight,” for the cash is hard to get,
Though all hope they’ll have some to-morrow;
And every one looks blue and is in such a fret,
For money is a haad thing to borrow.
So takedown your “shingle” and shut up your
shop,
For money is a hard thing to borrow.
Yes. indeed!
The banker looks quite brave as vou ask him for the
“ chink,”
But he pays out *he “ ready” with sorrow.
For he cannot stand a “ run,” and he now begins to think
That money is a hard thing to borrow.
Let him take down h.a “ shingle” and shut up his
shop,
For money is a hard thing to borrow.
. Yes, indeed I
The politician stares, office costs a mighty sum,
And the mouth of his purse is so narrow;
It was just to get some cash that he got upon the stump,
Finding money was a hard thing to borrow.
Let him take down his “shingle” and shut up his
shop.
For money is a hard thing to borrow.
Yes, indeed 1
The merchant is cast down with his loaded shelves ir
view,
And no customer buys to his sorrow;
For soon from Europe he will get a billeWui,
And money is a hard thing to borrow.
Let him take down his “shingle” and shut up bis
shop.
For money is a hard thing to borrow.
Yes, indeed!
The whisky maker sighs, for the drouth has killed his
corn.
And he looks on the prospects with sorrow.
For he knows his friends won’t stick when ha hasn't a
“ horn,”
And money is a hard thing to borrow.
Let him take down bis “shingle” and shut up bb’
shop,
For money is a hard thing to borrow.
Yes, indeed!
But, honest men never fear, though there comes a might}
crash.
And a note should fall due on to-morrow.
Just (all on your friends, they will spare a little cash,
Though money is a hard thing to borrow.
You can keep up your “sbiugle” and open widt
your shop,
Though money is a hard thing to borrow.
Yes, indeed!
From the New York Herald.
The Reciprocity Treaty*
The negotiation of the above treaty is but oneofa se
ries of acts in the administration of the government, ano
in the legislation of Congress, that show that the agn
cultural interest of the country is utterly disregaided
It is disfranchised, so to speak, and completely ovei
•laughed by the paramount interest of commerce am
manufacturers It is remorselessly sacrificed in am
treaty, or in anv act of Congress, when it conflicts it
the slightest with any other interest Even the Presi
dent, iu his late annual message, seems not to hav.
deemed agriculture of sufficient prominence or interest
in a national point of view, to be entitled to any notic<
whatever, and does not even name it. The powerfu
control and influence of the commercial press of th<
country—and of the commercial men of the coun*ry—
of the capital and numbers of the concentrated popufo
tion of our large citifies, seem to entirely obscure it,
nay, more, when they choose they can overwhelm it; a’
least, they can burden it aud tax it, and introduce a<
their pleasure new rivals to share its markets. The re
presentatives from tbe rural districts in Congress seen,
paralyzed, and are unable, it would seem, to even pro
test against the sacrifices their constituents are thu
cailed on to make
Certain it is, that the merits of this reciprocity treat ‘
came fully before ibe House of Representatives, on tbi
bill introduced to repeal the duty imposed by the tarii
on provincial produce, Canadian wheat, Ac., and tin
passage of which was necessary to the validity and op
eration of the treaty. Yet the agricultural interest ap
pears not to have bad one single friend there to rise am
defend it against the “ hardest single blow” it ever re
ceived.
Tbit may admit of e\pianation. Some legredemait
of the “ rules” may account for it; but the facts are un
deniable that no voice was heard in tbe House resisting
this iniquitous suicidal British treaty —iniquitous, cet
tainly, so far as it sold the markets of the American
farmer—that he has been charged 30 per cent ou every
thing he has worn and nearly everything be has used,
for the last quarter of a century to build up, and that,
tn the sanguine expectation ot the manufacturers ot
New England (but in this they will probably be .mista
ken) he is likely to continue to be charged while the
Canadian brings his wheat in to feed the artizan tbe
American farmer is thus taxed to furnish employment
for.
Whether these gentlemen from the rural districts,
even those with an almost exclusive agricultural con
stituency, will remain as silent when the commercial
pr ess has heralded forth, with all the pomp aud circum
etant iff of long leaders, the merits ot the Coliius line, and
the cit its have been drummed up again for petitions
whether they will resist, or help to impose a further tax
upon their constituents, to build up a monopoly, and
vote for *• protection” who never voted for protection
before, 1 know not. But one thing is pretty certain—
the country is likely to hear more about Mr. Collins’
steamers —one merchant and one merchant’s ships—
through the press, letter writers, lobby members, re
ports, speeches, and dinners, within the next three
mouths, than has been heard about agriculture in Con
gress in three \ ears, or in thirty. But this is rather
beside my subject.
Before examining the merits of this treaty, I wish to
call attention to a passage contained in the late message
of the President, in reference to it I think it goes tar
towards convicting the Chief Magistr’e of something
very like an attempt to deceive the country. He cer
tainly has used the technical language of the treaty as
only a special pleader in a bad cause would be likely to!
use language, and has submitted a really false issue tc j
the country. The basis of the country is not, and nev
er was what the President in solemn a paper as bis an
nual message to the people would seem to represent it
to be. But the fanners had charged him and his ad
ministration with having “ sold their wheat fields for
eo lfiish and mackerel.” Listen to the President’s state
ment of the bargain he had made! So far from selling
their wheat fields, he got both the inshore fishery and
the navigation of *he St. Lawrence, for the right ceded
to Great Britain to sell the fish they take on tbe coast
in our market free of duty ! So he says the treaty “sti
pulates,” and because >ucb a fraud or fiction has been
inset ted into tbe treaty by two cunning diplomatists the
President justifies himself in holding forth to the coun
try, that it was the real and bo'iahde.consideration, for,
as he expresses it, “ privileges of the highest impor
tance and value to the U. S.” But not to do the Presi
dent injustice let us give tbe passage entire as it stands
in the message -
“So soon as it (the treaty) was ratified, Great Brit
ain opened to our commerce the free navigation of the
river Sr. Lawrence, and to our fishermen unmolested
access to the shores and bays from which they had b* en
previously excluded on tbe coast of her North Ameri
can Provinces: in return tor which she asked for tbe
introduction, free of du - y, into the ports of the United
States, of the fish caught on the coast bv British fisher
men. 7h Jet/ip Ue compensation stipulated in the
tre.i y for privileges ot the highest importance and value
to the United Siates, which were thus voluntarily yiel
ded before it became effective, the request seemed to me
a reasonable one.”
Now ibis is all a fiction, without one fact to give it
countenance, and contradicted by the history of all tfi.-
diplonmcy, negotiation and legislation on the subject
from the time Gen. Dix first introduced bis bill iuto
Congress in 184 V.
The boon they sought, and the boon (the compensa
tion) we gave them was not our markets to sell hsh in i
which tisb tbev never caught, and probably never will
—it was our grain and pioduce markets for the sale of
their agricultural produce. It was not for markets in
which to sell fish that Sir Henry Bulwersought bv ev
ery means in his power to get General Taylor’s admin
istration to negotiate, and Congress to legislate about
Ibis, so miscalled reciprocity treat v matter, and sought
in vain; it was not for this Lord Elgin came on a s[e
cial mission to this country and that Washington has
been made to swarm for the last two years with Cana
dian otficalsand unotficials, but was'to get our home
mat kets lor the sale of provincial produce. Everybody
knows this. How absurd, and almost ridiculous then
the attempt to keep the real “compensation” from view
Nobody will be decieved bv it; but it is mortifying and
humiliating to see men in high places, in state papers
ts the gravest and most solemn import, resorting to
such pettifogging subterfuges, for they hardly deserve
a belter name. For the mutual considerations thus
named bv the President—the right to the inshore fish
eries, and the navigation of tbe St. Lawrence, ceded on
the one band, and the right to sell fish in the American
markets on the other, no such treaty could have been
formed ; not that tbe privileges thus respectively gran
ted are disproportioned, or that Great Britain would
consider she was parting with aD.v real boon whatever,
but she would rather keep the difficulty about the fish
eries a bone of contention for ulterior ends than part
with her asserted right so cheaply. Indeed this fishe
ry title was merely revived or asserted after our free use
of tbe disputed grounds tor half acentury, that it might
be used as a pretext to get possession of our markets
for the agricultural products of their provinces. But
for the consideration really given, almost any and every
disputed and unsettled matter would have been yield
ed up by Great Britaiu. Our minister at her court is
understood to complain that his negotiations have been
seriously embarrassed by the too easy relinquishment
of the only boon this wise and wily nation sought.
There is no doubt but our government has been en
tirely overreached in the bargain they have made. The
Secretary of State seems only to have taken iuto view,
in his s atvsmanship, tbe Statejof New York, oral most
only the fisherman and manufacturers of New England,
and the merchants and millers of New York. The in
terest of New York canals and railroads, the freight,
storage, and commissions of New York merchants, and
the grists to grind for the Rochester and Oswego mil
ters, have been secured as far as could be done, by Mr.
M-ircy, who has had these interests in charge before at
home, and does not seem to forget them when abroad.
That Ins views had been so limited, and his policy ao !
sectional and local, is a fair inference from tbe fact'that i
no such treaty was ever before negotiated between two
civilized nations. No instance can be found of a nation's
throwing trn’ open its markets to another nation or
people without an equivalent, growing staples and pro
ducts similar to its own and giowing them in abund
ance and superabundance, except in the contingency of
a drought or some great national calamity. All Eng
land did was to let in one or two arti les which she could
Dot supply to her starving people. But we have thrown ,
our mat kel* as wide open as though these British pro
vinces were States of this Union—markets which they
will seek merely to sell in, receiving only in payment
our precious metals, or exchange on England, to pay
for the goods they buy of her. Everything they can
grow from tueir soil, produce from their forests or their
mines, we shall have to take on these terms.
What do they give us in ret urn besides their river to
navigate, which they can’t navigate much themselves
—being frozen tight six months iu the year and a haz
ardous navigation tbe other six—and a right to catch
fish where we had always caught them before ? What
real reciprocity can they ofler us in the way of markets?
VVhv, a distinguished Senator from Vermont, when Gen.
Dix s bill was before the Senate, in 1549, declared that,
from his own personal knowledge, living, as he did,
near the line, there was nothing or next to nothing we
could send to Canada. How can we expect to send any
agricultural products there, when fire-sixths of their
population ore engaged in agriculture ; and these Pro
vinces are without large cities, towns, or manufactur
ing villages—Great Britain taking care to do all the
manufacturing for them, and to make the Colonies as
far as she can, her exclusive customers.
This reciprocity treaty, in its nakedness, and strip
ped of its diplomatic pretexts, is simply an assignment,
transfer and ceding over of our markets to be used, pos
sessed and enjoyed in common bv the farmers of the
United States and tbe subjects of Queen Victoria in her
five provinces in British North America, whereby, so it
should recite: “ It is expected New England manufac
tures will get cheaper bread than thirty per cent taxed
customers, the farmers of the United States, can furnish
them, and New York canals more freight, aud N. Y.,
merchants more storage and commissions?” This is
Mr. Mirer’s treaty. This is the substance, the pith and
marrow of it, and tbe country will soon find out it is so,
aod that protection has been utterly stricken down so
tar as our agricultural interest is concerned.
The grave question now arises, whether the fjirmers
of the Middle States—many of whom like the writer of
this, has stood by protection fer a quarter of a century
—believing, among other things, that it benefitted the
country generally, while the home market it furnished
was a sort of equivalent for the tax it imposed, now
that this home market has been taken away, now that
our interest has been deserted by tbe friends of protec
tion, many of them, if not among those who have di
rectly betrayed us, still enjoying the treason, (and may,
indeed, directly participating in it,) whether, I say, we
can, with due regard to our interest, or even with due
regard to a proper self respect, stand by the present
tariff, is a very grave question. Another in the same
category, and of equal import is, whether we can long
er consent to give to our commerce a monopoly in our
coast-wise trade; a monopoly worth to them, as some
estimate it, not less than an average of from twenty
five to fifteen per cent, on the tariff of their freights,
and which comes directly off from the producer, our
commercial marine being allowed, in effect, under the
monopoly they enjoy, to blockade the mouth of every
river, bay and lake, demanding to recieve in American
bottoms all freight bound coast-wise, while the foreign
trader, who could carry ihe producer’s freight low, goes
from one of our ports to another in ballast—goes emp
ty away. Upon both of these last heads I have some
remarks to make, but I wish first lo show the probable
effects of this treaty upon our agricultural interesi ;and
this, with your consent, Mr. Editor, I will take an ear
ly opportunity to, by the further use of your columns.
A Middle State Farveb.
Virid Picture of the Devastating Effects of
the War in Europe*
Victor Hugo, a distinguished French exile, residing
in Great Britain, in a recent speech which he delivered
upon the anniversary of the Polish Revolution of 1630,
thus graphically describes the horrid devastation of the
present war:—
“At the present hour, Asia Minor, the Aland Islands,
the Dauube, Tcheruia, the White Sea and the Black
Sea, the North and the South—cities, a few mouths ago
flourishing, now lying in ashes and smoke. At this
hour Siuope is burned, Bomarsuna is burned. Silistria
burned, Varna is burned, Kala is burned, Sebastopol
is burning. At this hour, by thousands, soon by hund
reds of thousands, ihe French, the English, the Turks,
the Russians, butcher each other in the East before a
heap of ruin. The Arab comes from the hill to be kill
ed by the Tartar who cmiies from the Volga; the Cos
sack comes from tbe steppes to be slain by tbe Scotch
man from the Highlands. Batteries thunder agaiust
batteries, powder magazines explode, bastiouscrumble,
redoubts give wav, bails perforate vessels, entrench
ment* are bombarded, bivouacs are under showers of
fire; the typhus, the plagueaud the cholera come dowu
with the grapesbot upon the besiegers, upon the be
gged, upon the camps, upon the fleets, upou the garri
son, u, on the city, where the whole population—-wo
men, children, old men—agouize. Shells destroy hos
pitals; a hospital takes tire aud two thousand sick are
“calcined,” say a bulletin. And seems, too—it is their
sta-ou. fbe Turkish frigate Hahira founders under
sail, Uis two Egyptain boats Abad-i Djihad are engulf
ed near Luiada with seven hundred men, gales dismast
the fleet, the screw propeller tbe Friuce, the frigate
Nymph of the Seas; four other war steamers founder,
the Sanspareil, the Samson and the Agamemnon, lie in
shallow water, broken by the storm; the Retribution
only escapes by throwing her guns into the sea, the
ileuri I*. perished near Eupatoria; the advice-boat
i luto is disabled; thirty-two transport ships laden
with men run aground and are lost. On land the con
flicts become every day more savage. The Russians
beat the wounded to death with their muskets. At the
end of a bayje the heap of dead and dying obstruct the
maneuvers of the Infantry. In the eveni g the battle
field makes even generals shudder. English, French
and Russian corpses are mingled as if they were biting
each other. I have never st>n anything like it, cries the
old Lord Raglan, who saw Waterloo; and yet they will
go further still. It is announced that ‘new’ means are
to be employed against the unfortunate city—meaus
which make one tremble, and which tuey hold ‘in re
serve.’
“Exter mination is the erv of this war. The iutreuch
ment alone costs a hundred men a day. Rivers of hu
man blood flow; a river of blood at Alma, a river of
blood at lakermann; rive thousand men killed the 20th
September, six thousand thesth October; fifteen thou
sand the sth November, and this isonly the beginning.
Armies are sent and they melt away. It is well
tome, let us send others! Louis Bonaparte has repeat
ed to the ex-General Canrobert that imbecile saying of
1 hiliplV. a Spinola; ‘J firquis take Buda’ Yester
day Jsebastopo. was a sore, to-day it is an ulcer, to mor
row it will be a cancer, the cancer which devours
France, England, Turkey and Russia. This is the Eu
| rope of tbe Kings. O future! when wilt thou give us
the Europe of the People!
“I continue: On the ships, after each battle, are bor
tible ciowds of wounded. To cite only the figures
that I know, and I know not the tenth part, four hund
red wounded on the Panama, four hundred and eighiv
, nine on tbe Colombo, which towed two transports load
ed in the same manner—the number I do not know;
four hundred and seventy on the Vulcan, fifteen hund
red on the Kangaroo. They are wounded in the Cri
mea, their wounds are dressed at Constantinople. The
two hundred leagues of sea and eight days’journey be
tween tbe wound and the dressing! During the voy
age the neglected wounds become frightful; the muti
laud men, with no aid, no assistance, miserably heaped
upon each other, see the worm cf the grave come from
their broken limbs, from their woquded sides, from
their cloven skulls, from their open bowels; and tinder
this horrible swarming they become corrupt before
they are dead, tn the pestilential holds of hospital
steamers—immense common graves filled with living
men eaten by worms. Ido not exaggerate. I have
here the English journals—the ministerial journals.—
Read for yourselves. Yes, I insist, no aid. Four sur
geons on the Vulcan, four on the Colombo, for nine
hundred and nineteen dyiDg men ! As for the Turks,
their wounds are not dressed. They do as they can.—
lam only a demagogue and a blood-drinker, lam well
aware of it, but it would please me better to see fewer
boxes of consecrated meuajs on the field of Boulogne
and more physicians in the camp at Crimea.”
Extravagance.—Defending the Ladies.
The Editor of the Wilkes Republican comes gallant
lv to the rescue of the ladies, to whom, he insists, and
we think correctly, an undue amount of responsibility
is attached for the present “hard times.”
Extravagance. —As an indication of the extrava
gance which has prevailed in this country for some time
past, an importing house in New York has written a
letter to one of the papers in that city, stating that the
amount of duties paid for French artificial flowers, tor
ihe first quarter of the current fiscal vear. was almost
double the amount of duties paid on railroad iron.— Sew
Orleans Bulletin.
Comment. —We have noticed, for some time past, an
ungallant disposition among our cotemporarics to throw
much, if not the whole, blame of the present hard times
upon the poor women. Shame upon you, gentlemen!
No doubt the sex have done theii share to bring about ,
the present disastrous state of financial affairs, but we
protest against the conclusion that they are even as
culpable in this respect as that race of bipeds known as
“the Lords of creation.” It is true that handsome
equipages, thousand dollar shawls, and tine furniture,
have been bought at the instance of the ladies (and we
have no doubt tbe men have had a share in this same
matter of extravagance, every liege lord wishing to s< e
his lady appear to the best advantage) Out what are
these few isolated cases to these magnificent systems of
extiavagance, tomfoolery and vice to which the men
have been addicted of late years? How many tineshiiwls,
dresses, and carriages could be bought by the seven
hundred and twelve Jliousn nd one hundred and sidy one
d/til er* spent, chiefly by the men of this eountrv, upon
snt h wnprodustive labor as tbe song*of % Swedish made
?
What is the extravagance of woman compared with
the almost countless millions that are anntmllv gulped
down the throats of the sterner sex in the form of whis
key, brandy, and champaign—or with the vast sums
that find their exit in smoke from cigars at a dime
apiece, or the no less amount anuually expended for
the privilege of defacing the hearths, floors and side
walks by the chcwers of tobacco? YVe might extend
the list of luxurious vices, almost ad infinitum, but ta
king these items alone, how stands the account, and up
on whose shoulders rests the guilt of this ftlessness atid
prodigality ?
YY’e know men, without farms, who keep horses
enough about them to feed, clothe, and educate half a
dozen children at no greater ex (tense than ilteir mere
feeding. A landlord of a neighboring city recently told
us that he took in at a liquor bar, the year liefore, sixteen
thousand dollars, the profits alone being sufficient to
pay bis entire rent of SIO,OOO. But enough. It’s a
shame to be saddling our sins upon the shoulders of the
poor women, and while we have a heart to feel, u pen
to write, and a printer to stick by us and put it into
tvpe, we shall defend them against the slauder.— If Uf:es

Sir—lt is with the most heartfelt pleasure I have tn

strength bv taking your Pills. For the last ten
I suffered from a derangement of the Liver and Stem

I had tried every Remedy that was recommended to
me, but all o no purpose; and had given myselfun
despair, when I was at last recommended to takp c,,
Pills. After using them for three months, the msufi il
that I am now in better health than I have been f,
eleven years past, and indeed as well as ever I was i.

to make the best of all Nil* -one which should i,v*
none of the objec ions, but all the advantages of vm
other. This has been attempted here, and with what
success we would respcctfujiy submit to the public de
cision. It has been unfortunate for the patient hither
to t.iat almost every purgative medicine is acrimonious
and irritating to the bowels. This is not. Many at
them produce so much griping pain and revulsion in
the system as to more than counterbalance tbe good to
be derived from them. These pills produce no irr ta
tion or pain, unless it arise from a previously exist v-s
obstruction or derangement in the bowels. Being pure
ly vegetable, no harm can arise from their use In auv
quantity; but it is better that any medicine should be
taken judiqoqsly. Minute directions for their use in
the several diseases to which they are applicable are
gneu on the box. Among tbe complaints which luoe
been speedily cured by them, we mav mention L,v tr
Complaint, in its various forms of Jaundice, lndige-tiou
Languor and Loss of Appetite, Listlessness, Irritability*
Bilious Headache, Bilious Fever, Feverand Ague lYm
in the Side and Loins, for, in truth, ail these are tut
the consequence pf disease action in the liver. Ag it
aperient, they afford prompt and sure relief in Costive
ness, Piles Colic, Dysentery, Humors, Scrofula and
Scurvy, Colds, with Soreness of the body Ulcers aid
impurity of the blood; iu short, any and everyou
where a purgative is required.
They have also produced some singului ly succisslul

ach, and rifoe. Ihey should be freely take.)'in tbe
spring of the year, to purify the blood and prepare tie
system for the change of seasons. An occasional do.se
stimulates the stomach and bowels into healthy action,
and restores the appetite and vigor. They purify the
blood, and, by their stimulant action on tbe circulaioiy
system, renovate the strength of the body, and restore
the wasted or diseased energies pf the whole organism.
Hence an occasional dose is advantageous even if.ouvh
no serious derangement exists; but unnecessary dofciwf
should never be carried top far. as every purgauv*
medicine reduces the strength, when taken to excess

thing which has hitherto been available to mankind.—
W hen their virtues are once known the public will no
longer doubt what remedy to employ when in retd of
a cathartic medicine.
Being sugar wrapped they are pleasant to t:,ke, and !
being purely vegetable, no harm cun arise from their j
