out much difficulty. Colfsx was re-elect-
ed Speaker, on the first ballot. by very
large majority. over james Brooks. Of
New York. Mcpherson was reelected

Thaddeus Stevens introduced bill for
the appointment of q Committee to ex-
anime and report whether any of the

The names of Congressman from rebel
States were not placed on the roll by the

leave for home. on Tuesday.
In the Senate, a number of bills and
resolutions were rffered, all relating to the
negro. Mr.. Wade offered bill extend
ing the right Of suffrage 10 persons Of all
colors, in the District of Columbia. Mr.
Sumner offered bill of similar char
acter; and also q number of other bills
and resolutions. among which were res
olution declaring the Constitutional
Amendment ratified; bill to enforce the
amendment in the Southern States; q bill
to protect the freedmen Of the South; and
several other bills and resolutions of q
similar nature.
The Presidents Message is said to be
lengthy and important. II possible. we
will publish it next week. He is report
ed as taking emphatic ground in favor of
insisting that England shall pay for the
damages caused by rebel pirates fitted ont
in her ports. and in favor of enforcing
the Monroe Doctrine, and resisting Eu-
ropesn encroachments on this continent.

We commend the above to our City

Chronicle is as follows
"The crime of counterfeiting the Ma

OF death. The National credit is at stake.
The life Of the Nation is paramount to
all other considerations.
"Such is the perfection to which the
arts have attained in the present dav

skill of the counterfeiter. This arch
enemy Of credit is assisted in his diaboli-
cal schemes BY the god of day. and pho
Biography becomes his willing slave. No

his victims are spread all over q cont

The Herali's Richmond correspondent.
of the 9th. says Gen. Grant was hearti
ly v welcomed to that city BY the military
authorities. He freely expressed his
opinion while there regarding Mexican
affairs. He said emphatically that the
advent of Maximilian to the pretended
throne Of Mexico was Q part of the rebel
lion, and his immediate expulsion should
be part Of its history. France did not
ask our consent to establish . throne in
Mexico, and we should not consult that
power in re establishing the Republic
He said that France had no right to in,
terfere in the question. but if she wonld
involve herself with rs in Q war on this
point. now is the time to have it. while
our army and navy are yet organized
and before our commerce is again sci
sfloat on every sea.

The RATIFICATION WITH AN "IF."-
The manner in which South CaroIins
has passed the Constitutional Amend.
ment. prohibiting the existence of slavery
does not recommend the Legislature o
that State as an exceedingly loyal body
The amendment has been adopted with a
rider. as follows:
"Resolved, That any attempt by Con-
grees towards Legislating upon the po.
litical stains of former slaves or their
civil relations, would be contrary to the
Constitution of the United States as il
now is. or as it would be altered by tie
proposed amendment; in conflict with the
policy of the President. declared in the
amnesty proclamation. and with the re-
storatlon of that harmony upon which
depends the vital interests of the Ameri.
can Union.
This resolution. therefore. shows that
South Carolina has accepted the Consti-

The 6emand for farms in this vicinity,
for the coming season. is unprecedented
It is a perfect rusb. For portion Of a
quarter section which we have under cul-
tivatisn, near town. we think we have
had at least twenty applications; and
doubtless others who have land to rent,
have had as many. When we look upon
the broad miles of rich prairie stretching
out all around us. unimproved. in the
possession of men who are amply able to
fence and break it. we cannot help think
ing how they are retarding the prosperity
of the country. and keeping down the
value of their own land, and that Of their
neighbors.
Let US look at the figures. Suppose q
man owns one Oh more quarter sections
in this country. and has means in hand
to improve it all or any part of it. Farm
ers tell Us that Fall wheat does best on
land when broken for the first time.
Suppose that man should next Spring
fence one quarter. in June and July break
it, and in August sow the whole in Fall
wheat. The entire expense Of lumber.
nails. hauling, labor, breaking. seed. and
sowing, would not exceed 90, ,000-prob-
ably would not reach that. The produce
of the harvest would not certainly fall
below twenty bushels per acre 1t would
in all probability be nearer thirty. but we
will put it at twenty, for safe calcula.
tion. And the price in market would
not, at the lowest estimate. be less than
one dollar per bushe'. Thus in one year,
be would have 5000 bushels of wheat,
worth s3. 200, which would reimburse
him in one year. for the outlay in i'm
proving. besides paying the expenses Of
bavesting. tbreshing, and hauling to mar
ket, and leave him. in addition, a hand
some interest on the money invested.
Here are bis Improvements paid for, and
every year thereafter be could raise the
same amount of produce, without repe.
tition of the expense; and, in addition to
all, the improvements have doubled the
value of his land.
Another farming matter: There are
farmers who have lived in Kansas for the
last ten or twelve years. and yet there is
not the sign of fruit tree on their premis-
es. In that time. they might have raised
good bearing orchards. and now been
resping the benefits. Others. who have
not lived here SO long. haye aourishing

strange to see men so intent upon making
money. yet neglecting the very means to
make it the easiest aud most rapidly.
