An Army Incident.

How happened It that the General changed his m nd

many evils would be remedied. particularly that Of every

These coneurring opinions. mseung us at once from so

before a powerful effort will be made. and perhaps q sue
cessiul one, to effect an entire revolution 10 the revenue
system. We content ourselves, for the present. with laying
before the people such evidences of fact as have come into

extract IL argues that the number OF Federal othce-hol-
des will be dimished rather than increased by its adoption,
as State officers may be employed in the collection Of the
taxes. This course has never been resorted to heretofore,
however, when direct taxes have been imposed, nor is it
probable that II will be now or hereafter, under the inGu-
cnco of the constantly accommodating tendencies, every
where visible, to an extension OF the power and patronage
OF the President. We may not reasonably look, in these
degenerate times, for a check upon that branch Of the gov

when Jealousy Of the Executive was universal, was not i'm
posed upon its action.

In regard to the growing crop. tho Times says;
The prospects for the growing crop are not considered q,
favorable as they were at the same time last year, and
when II is borne IN mind that the yield then promised to
exceed that OF any former season. whil.t the result shows n
virtual deficit of $4,000 hhds as compared with the crop Of
leA4, II is a sufficient proof OF the very preearious nature Of
the cultivation in this climate. In consequence Of the
cold. and wet 'prins. accompanied by continued lain 10 the
early part Of August, the plant IL actually backward, and is
thus more exposed TO the influence OF an early frost; but the
increased quantity Of new lands placed under cultivation.
will compensate As Is generally conceded. for any de6eien
CIV arising from that score; whilst, with a late and favorable
season, the crop may exceed that of last year. The rat
toon cane is bsu, and will yield poorly. whilst the plant
cane, more especially IN AtiaksPas, is represented as unu-
sualy good.
