The free list is greatly reduced, and all the schedules of articles imported fer a large increase of taxation.—Richmond Dispatch. flotation* of Crop*. It has long been a settled fact in agri culture, that the greatest rc'um from the soil is generally secured, not by contin- j uously growing one plant, even though . it command the highest market price, but i by an alternation or rotation of crops, j There is no difficulty iu cultiv; t ug any j agricultural plant successively for any establishments in that city, communicates jare, by some device or other, made to suf the following facts: “Work is commenced every morning at 7 o’clock, and continued till il at night— a period of 16 hours, the only intervals allowed being about 10 minutes for each meal—the total amount of time allowed for—eating their food, I was going to say but surely ‘bolting’ it is the most appro priate phrase—being 10 minutes per day; thus leaving 1-3 hours and 20 minutes ns the period devoted to work. And this, he it remembered, is not merely during the busy season, as at the West end, but for all the year round, from January to De cember; for you must understand that at the establishment to which I refer, the greater part of the sewing is given out to slop-workers in the busy season—and all that is done indoors is the original cutting out and ultimate fitting together of the separate parts; hut, when the scale season comes, there is always as much sewing re served as will keep the girls of the estab lishment employed up to the full pitch— so that there is, iu fact no, no ‘slack season’ at all for them. And yet for this contin ued and unrelenting pressure of sixteen hours’ work per day, from year’s end to year’s end, this firm assume to themselves the, greatest possible credit. They thank God that they are not as other firms are at the West end—oppressors and destroyers of young women. They never—not even for a few weeks in the busy season—make their people sit up till 3 or 4 in the morn ing. Oh, no! their gas is always turned off in the work-room by 11 o’clock. Why, sir, the West end system, with its few week* of severity, followed as it is by monil.o «Poomp«r*rfvC rctsure, is mercy it self when viewed alongside of this unmiti gated ‘never-ending, still beginiug’ slave ry to which I am referring. “The only day of leisure which the girls of this establishment have is Sunday. From Monday morning to Saturday night they are as complete prisoners as any in Xewgatc. They know not whether the snn shines or the rain falls at that time. They tire not allowed to cross the thresh old even to purchase a pair of shoes or a new gown for themselves, and must em ploy their friends outside to do this for them. “Nor is the accommodation in doors such as in any way to reconcile them to close confinement. The vo.k-room, in which ten or twelve of them is employed, only about twelve feet square, and is en* tirciy devoid of arrangements for ventil ation, which is the more to he deplored, as during the evening they have to en counter the heat and foul air of three flaming gas burners right over their heads, every door and wid >w being shut by which a breath of pure air could possibly enter. The bed-rooms are equally uncomfortable no fewer than six persons being huddled into one, and four-into another.” It is impossible to contemplate the con dition of this class of work-women, (as dis eased hv facts quoted,^ without keenly sympathising with it and wishing that something might he done to mitigate its evils and misery.

Iu view of the unsettled state of pub lic affairs, the question of breadstufls may become one of much importance. Our planters have been in the habit of large ly depending upon the west for their sup plies of breadstufls, because they found it more profitable to employ their force in cultivating cotton and sugar. Hut in the peculiar situation in which we are placed, we ought to ruu as little risk in a matter of so much practical importance as possi ble. Inasmuch as Louisiana has become an independent State, we ought to depend much upon ourselves for provisions. i» ••>- der to guard against contingencies. We suggest, therefore, to all our planters the propriety and necessity of planting more corn and potatoes, than they have ever done before, and less cotton. If this should reduce the quantity of cotton, the price would he almost certain to make up, and probably more than make up, deficiency. Thus wit’n less cotton, more money could be realized, nnd at the same time a much larger quantity of bread-stuffs would be the result. There arc some varieties ot corn that ripen much earlier than others aud by pav ing attention to this a very early crop might be obtained for home consumption, to be followed by other and later varieties. Any scarcity arising from any cause would he thus prevented. A greater ■quantity than usual of all sorts of garden vegetables should also he grown—for rea sons that will at once suggest themselves. If our troubles all end peacefully, as it is to be devoutedly hoped they may, noth ing will have been lost by these precau tions. If, however, this should not be the case, why, then everj'body would have raised enough of breadstuff's of one kind or another, to prevent actual suffering for the want of food. Cornbread, such as every good housewife in the South knows how to superintend the making of, can take the place of flour, should that ar ticle haiipcn to be scarce or dear. Every body likes corn-bread, or should! When properly made, it is not only healthy hut delicious.--- New Orleans Bulletin. A Bill of Abomination*. The new Tariff hill which has passed the Black Republican House of Repre sentatives, and is soon, in a slightly modi fied form, to pass the Senate, is designed to impose an enormous tax upon the peo ple who still remain under the control of the General Government. The New York Jmtrnnl of Commerce condemns, with in dignant emphasis, the despotic attempt to levy the heaviest weight of taxation here tofore known in the history of the country. The present rates of duty range from I to 30 per cent : the new rates, including the specific charges, will range from 5 to 150 per cent., a large number of articles, if im ported at all, being included in schedules that will be charged from 30 to 95 per cent. Thus, a pieee of printed calico, 04 inches wide, costing abroad 4s. 9d. ster ling, per piece of 28 yards, would pay, un der the present tariff', 24 per cent.; under the proposed tariff 47 per cent.; thus near ly doubling the tax. A cheap printed lawn, such as is now worn by poor girls for summer dresses, costing 2d. sterling per yard, at present pays 24 percent; un- per the proposed tariff it would pay 65 per cent., or nearly three times the present rate. Linen goods are to be raised from 15 per cent. lo 25 a 30, thus nearly or quite doubting the tax. Blankets, the poor man’s coinfort, now pay 15 percent, only on tl-e value; under the new tariff, unless it is greatly altered, they will pay, in some cases as high as 95 per cent.; or over six times the present rate. All wool en carpets, now taxed 24 per cent., arc to pay iu the new bill 35 to 50 cents per square yard. Bilks now pay 19 percent.; the proposed tariff raises them to 20 a 25 a 30 percent. Iron and all the products of iron are changed to such rates as will im pose an enormous additional tax upon eve ry mechanic or farmer who drives a nail, or buys a horse shoo. The minutest arti cles of this description are sought out and levied upon with a special or separate du ly. All books printed in the English lan guage, (unless more than 30 years old.) ureto be assessed 15 cents per pound, thus | somebody. the soil into the right physical and chemi cal condition. But such a proceedure is usually more expensive than alternating she crops. The reasons of this are most ly contained in what has j receded, but a few words of explanation may still be useful. AYhen a light virgin soil comes under the hand of the farmer, it yields good crops for a few years, but then sub sides to a low state of productiveness. At first it may have yielded wheat; when no longer able to support that crop, it may stiil give fair crops of barley; the next year if put to turnips or potatoes, it may seem to recover its fertility some what. and produce a good burden of roots; but now it, will not yield again a good crop of wheat, though probably clover would flourish on it. The cause of such facts lies partly in the soil, and partly in the plants themselves. As for the soil, as already stated, its composition and texture are perpetually changing. The quantity of organic mat ter especially, rapidly diminishes when the sort is under cultivation, ami the sol uble mineral matters are in most cases re moved by cropping, faster than supplied bv weathering or disintegration. As for cultivated plants, practical men have classed them according to their demands mi the soil, as follows : Enriching crops, clover, lucern and esparsette. Non-ex hausting crops, peas and beans, also cer eals when cut green. Exhausting crops, cereals, beets, turnips, carrots and pota toes. Very exhausting crops, tobacco, dax, hemp and hops. Among the causes f the different exhaustive effects of va rious plants, are the following: 1 Different extent or structure of roots and leaves. The enriching crops expose to the air an enormous surface of foliage, and throw out very large, long and nu merous roots. The cereals have much less leaf and root surface. 2 Different rapidity of growth. Clo ver and root crops continue in foliage du ring the whole season; while the cereals ripen in July or August. 3. Period or crisis of growth ; seed re quire a better soil than those which only produce foliage, because the rapidity of assimilation seems to increase when the reproductive function comes into activity. I’lants which ripen seed may require a richer soil, not because they need more from it, but because they need more in a given time. 4. Some crops arc entirely removed from the soil, as tlax; while others leave the ground filled with enormous mass of roots, as clover; or strewn with stalks and foliage, as the potatoe aud beet. 5. The quantity of ash ingredients re moved from the soil by different plants, is wide’y unlike. In tlie light of the above statements, it is easy to see that when a soil refuses to yield remunerative crops of shallow-root ed and quick growing wheat; it may still produce a luxuriant growth of deep-root ed, large-leaved and slow-growing clover. It is tv dent, too, that when a eloverly is broken up aud sown to wheat, this grain may yield well, because the decaying turf and roots-are a ready smirce of every | kind of plant-food. This preparation of the soil for an exhausting crop, by the intervention of one of so easy growth is shown in the practice of green manuring, which is, in fact a rotation of crops; but is also a fertilizing process, because the first crop is entirely sacrificed lor the sake of the succeeding ones. Green manuring consists in plowing under clover buckwheat, sparry, or other crops, when in blossom, so that the soil shall be en riched by their decay. As these plants ( he last named especially) will grow on poor soils, it is possible by their help to reclaim the lightest lands, and bring them up to a fair degree of productiveness in the course of a few year.—Country Gen tleman mile Flowers and Gentian. They are manufactured by Dr. Dods himself, who is an experienced and suc cessful Physician, aud hence, should not be classed among the quack nostrums, which flood the country, and against which the Medical profession are so justly prejudiced. These truly valuable Bitters have not been tairly before the public for one year, and yet there is u heavy demand for them from all parts of the Union. Dr. Frink, No. 30 West 35th Street, New York, says: I have been greatly benefitte.d by using Dr. I).x!s* Wine Bitters, and am now using them freely and suc cessfully in my practice. As a medicine for Females I consider them nnequaled.” Dr. Guernsey, No. 18 West 23d Street, says: “I have used’ l>r. Pods' Wine Bitters in mv practice, nnd in all cases where n tonic is required, I consider them unsurpassed, and cheerfully recommend them ns a valuable Family Medicine.” l)r. Meactiam, of Florida, says: “For several years I suffered all the horrors of Cron- ic Dyspepsia. J used all other remedies without avail. I discarded prejudice nnd used Dr. Pods’ Wine bitters which have greatly benefitted me, end I believe will cure ine." .Mr. (»• S. Weaver, of Albany, N. Y., says: ‘■.My wife was sinking rapidlvwitli eonsumytion; the best physicians in Albany and New York city pronounc ed her case hopeless. She used Dr. Dods’ Wine Bit ters: and is cured.” Mr. J. B. Stnats.of Newark, N. J.,says: ‘"My daughter was extremely ill; she had been at tended bv four of our best physicians; her disease wus Iufljumitioo of the U.. — ..U. ..I.l-i. 1—d p r.U,.or«l m treinc debility. Her ense was considered hopeless by nil who saw her. A friend recommended Dr. Pods Wine Bitters; she used them and is well.” Mr. Brittain, editor of the Banner of Light, in Boston says: “Dr. J. Bovee Pods’ Wins Bitters have cured me of Piles of the worst and obstinate character.’" A distinguished lady of Mobile, Ala., writing to a female friend says: “1 would advise yon to use I)r. J. Bovee Pods' Im perial Wine Bitters. I have used them, and consider them a blessing to our sex.” We might write a small volume, and then would not give one fourth of the Testimonials in our possession, as to the virtue of these Valuable Bitters, but we will on ly say that they are approved of by our best Physicians, are doing much good 111 all parts of the country, ami earnestly entreat the afflicted to try them.

I have now, hanging in my smoke house, hams 1, 2. and 3 years old, and the oldest are as free from insects as when first hung up. I am not aware of other causes for the exception of my bacon from insects, but simply tbe fact that my smoke house is always dark.

Scrofula, or King’s Evil, is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated, weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it pervades the whole body, and may burst out in disease on any part of it. No organ is free from its attacks, nor >u there one which it may not destroy. The scrofu lous taint is variously caused by mercurial disease, low living, disordered or unhealthy food, impure air, tilth and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by the venereal infection. What ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the constitu tion, descending “ from parents to children unto the third and fourth generation indeed, it seems to be the rod of Him who says, “ I will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their children.” Its effects commence by deposition from the blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed tuber cles ; in the glands, swellings; and on the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul corruption, which genders in the blood, depresses the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitutions not only suffer from scrofulous complaints, but they have far less power to withstand the attacks of other diseases; con sequently, vast numbers perish by disorders which, although not scrofulous in their nature, are still ren dered fatal by this taint in tlie system. Most of the consumption which decimates the human family has its origin directly in this scrofulous contamina tion ; and many destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain, and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or are aggravated by the same cause. One quarter of all our people arc scrofulous; their persons are invaded by this lurking infection, and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse it from the system wo must renovate the blood by an alterative medicine, and invigorate it by healthy food and exercise. Such a medicine we supply in AYERS Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, the most effectual remedy which the medical skill of our times can devise for tins every where pre vailing and fatal malady. It is combined from the most active remedials that have been discovered for the expurgation of this foul disorder from the blood, aud the rescue of the system front its destructive consequences. Hence it |hould be employed for the cure of not only scrofula, but also those other affections which arise front it, such as Eruptive and Skin Diseases, St. Anthony’s Fire, Rose, or Erysipelas, 1’implf.s, Pustules, Blotches, Blains and Boils, Tumors, Tetter and Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ringworm, Rheumatism, Syphilitic nnd Mercurial Diseases, Dropsy, Dyspepsia, Debility, and, indeed, all Complaints ARISING FROM VlTIATED OK IMPURE BLOOD. Th« popular belief in “ imparity of the blood" is founded in truth, for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid, without which sound health is impossible in con taminated constitutions. Ayer’s Cathartic Pills, FOR ALL THE PURPOSES OF A FAMILY PHYSIO, are so composed that disease within the range of their action can rarely withstand or evade them. Their pen etrating properties search, and cleanse, and invigorate every portion of the human organism, correcting its diseased action, and restoring its healthy vitalities. As a consequence of these properties, the invalid who is bowed down with pain or physical debility is astonished to find his health or energy restored by a remedy at once so simple and inviting. Not only do they cure the every-day complaints of every body, but also many formidable and dangerous diseases.

So wide is the field of its usefulness and so numerous are the cases of its cures, that almost every section of country abounds in persons publicly known, who have been restored from alarming and even desperate dis eases of the lungs by its use. When once tried, its superiority over every other medicine of its kind is too apparent to escape observation, and where its virtues are known, the public no longer hesitate what antidote to employ for the distressing and dangerous affections of the pulmonary organs that are incident to our climate. While many inferior remedies thrust upon the community have failed and been discarded, this has gained friends by every trial, conferred benefits on die afflicted they can never forget, and produced cures too numerous and too remarkable to be forgotten.
