and's German Bitters, prepared by DE-. c.,
M. Jackson, of this city, because l was pre-
iudiced against them for many years, under

coholic mixture. l am indebted to my friend,
Robert Shoemaker, Esq, for the removal of
this prejudic e by proper tests, and for en-
couragement to try them, when suffering
from great and long continued debility. The
use of three I ottles of these Bitters, at the
beginning of the present year, was followed
by CIVIC ent relief and restoration to a degree
of bodily and mental vigor which L haG not

despaired of regaining. 1 there fore thank

The State of the Printers Trade.

The following remarks from The Printer,
an organ of the crsft,will show the state
of the printing business at the present
time:
The results Of high prices are now per-
ceptble even to the most prejudiced'
The book trad is very meager list Of
new books and the du Il monotony of our
leading book printing Offices shows that
the number of books for the next season
will be still less. Since 1857 there has
never been so great number OF good
workmen out of employment. Book COM
positors are now employed mostly in clos
ing up the unfinished remnants of works
taken in FIVE or ak months ago. There
is not much new work offered. and nearly
all of that is in the shape Of small or eph-
emeral boolrs, No publisher darss to
undertake any long work, from which
he cannot look for immediate returns.
The production and sale of books and
newspapers have declined to such de-
gree as would, two years ago. have pro-
dused marked effect on the price Of pap
er. But the price Of paper is unchanged.
In the face Of diminished demand, the
tendency of prices still continues upward.
News paper is still sold at % to % cents
and good book paper from 80 to IS cts.
with no prospectIof abatement.
While the high price Of paper is effec tu-
al in preventing the presswork of long
editions from plates, the high price of
composition and sterotypingis is preventing
the preparation Of new books. II new pls-
tes could be made at reasonable ap
Proclamation toward old prices, there can
be no doubt that many publishers would
aend in new work freely, in anticipation
Of future demand. Many new works
have been written, and are now ready for
the compositers. Theirs is probly n ia

The Report of Commissioner Of
Agriculture

Dated Dec. l, contains some interesting
facts. The wheat crop, Of this year, is
18,7e8,2i3 bushels less than last year.
It's quality, however, is generally super
ior. Although the crop is less, yet
greater abundance of corn and buck wheat
will tend to lessen home consumption, so
that the export demand can be met The
rye crop is 9Os, 8o7 bushels less than last
year. The barley crop is less by 75o,8a7
bushels, but is too small reduction for
fnrther notice. The long and severe drouth
for last summer occasioned great anxiety
for the corn crop, while the rains in
August came too late in some localities
to materially benefit it, and in others
some Of the fields we're too far injured to
recover; yet, generally, showers were in
time to benefit the crop very much; COM
pared with last year, the crop of l9: 4 is
1858, 444 bushels greater, and 55'6i4,
eos less than the crop of 1863. But it
is certain that some demand upon it will
be far less than on that Of 1863. There
will be nearly 100000 of hogs less,
and greatly decreased quantities of cattle
to fatten; less farm stock to keep over
winter. aud still larger saving effected
by diminished distillatiou. These lessen
ed home demands will render our ability
to meet an export demand in 1865 fully
equal te that of 1868. There is =
large decrease in the tobacco crop. In
1868 it was 267.s67.ss6 pounds. and
this year but is7, ,4sa22s pounds, diff
ference of s.s7s, ,9sI pourps. The chief

reduction in the crop Of 1867 is to be
found in the States of Kentucky, Missouri
and Maryland. The condition of their
labor and the unfavorable season for
planting out, are causes Of this reduced
production.
The buckwheat crop has increased g.
994, ,085 bushels over that of 1868, and
is equal to that of 1862

Northeastern States. The crop is 81
9G3, 782 bushels less than that of 1858,
Although the hay crop is 1890. .096
tons less than last year. yet its superior
quality will compensate for its decrease
in weight. It was harvested in the best
