I DIR. BALDwINs LECTURES IN ATLANTA
The PRopHErGc FUTURE OF AMERICA
We are indebted to the Atlanta hHtclhgeneer
for the following reference to the efforts Of
our respected townsman in Atlanta:
Quite large and very appreciative
audience listened TO the address OF DIR.
BALDWIN last evening on the above subject.
The uncertain future can alone decide how
fat the learned gentleman is correct in his
speculatiOns. His audience was deeply in
terested, and while he did not ask them to
assens 10 his prophetic views, for he does
not claim infallihility, we are Of opinion
that the disposition was general TO give him
credit for great foresight That the distln-
guished lecturer has devoted much time, en-
ergy, and given great research to his SUBJECT
is plainly apparent. His view OF our iuture
is rather a hopeful one, and while he pic
lures lowering clouds upon our horizon, he
believes there will break through that cloud
CLEAN Of sunshine that will make all the
earth glad. We cannot at this late hour
give even a brief outline Of his argument
lie deals rather in logic that rhetoric, and
while there was an occasional pleasing dis
play Of the latter, even reaching at times t.
! a most eloquent hight, he confined himself
! rs a general thing to solid argument. Al
together his style was pleasing, and whether
| or not We are to witness the stirring scenes
/ his prophetic brain places in store for us, We
are certainly indebted 10 him for two very
| learned and interesting lectures. He Is ev
| identity A gentleman OF distinguished ability
seeking alone to do good, and will beal
hence the well wishes Of his audience.

THE PENNSYLVANIA ELECTION.

In view Of the great, importance of the
issues at stake, all eyes are now turned to-
wards Pennsylvania in solicitude as to the
result of her coming State election. We
understand that the information received
here within the last twenty-four hours, from
the best sources of political information in
that State, is most hopeful for the success of
the National Union party in the coming
election. Not only does the election of
CLYMER by a decided majority, seems an
assured fact, but what is of more national
importance, there is good prospect Of reyers-
ing the political complexion of the Con-
gressional delegation Of the State.
The present delegation stands l6 Radicals
to s Conservatives. There is no doubt from
the admission, even of the Radicals them
selves, that this preponderance on their part
will be much reduced, and well informed
politicians, not apt to be over sanguine, aver
that the figures will be fully reversed.
A Conservative victory in Pennsylvania,
as everybody knows, will be echoed by one
in New York, and as 60 these great States SO

VOLUME XXXIII.
IMPORTANT To FARMERS-DECIsIoN
OF THE COMMEsTOHER OF INTER
NAL REVENUE

NAL ABNENAhs-
The following decisions have recently
been given NV the Commissioner Of Internal
Revenue at Washington. They are import
ant to farmers in 50 far as they untangle
some Of the knotty points Of law.
I. Farmers will not be required TO make
return of produce consumed in their own
immediate families.
2 The farmers' profits from sales Of live
stock are TO be found by deducting iroIn the
gross receipts Of animals sold, the purchase
money paid for the same. If animals have
been lost during the year by death or rob
bling, the purchase money. paid for such ami
mails may be deducted from the gross income
Of the farm.
8. No deduction can be madeby the farm
er for the value Of services rendered by his
minor children, whether he actually pays
for such services or not. If his adult chill
dren work for him and receive compensa-
ton for their labor, they are to be regarded
as other hired labOrers in determining his
income.
4. Money paid for labor, except such as
is used or employed in domestic service, or
in the production of articles consumed in
the family of the producer, may be deducted
5. No deduction can be allowed in any
case for the cost of unproductive labor. Ii
house servants are employed portion OF
the time in producing labor, such as the
making of butter and cheese for sale, pro-
portionate amount Of the wages paid them
may be deducted.
6. Expenses for ditching and clearing
new land are plainly expenses for perma-
nent improvements, and not deducted.
Z. The whole amount expended for fer
iilizers applied during the year TO the farm
er's lands may be deducted, but no deduc-
ton is allowed for fertilizers produced on the
farm. The cost Of seed purchased fer SOW
ing and planting may be deducted.
5. ia person sells timber standing, the
profits are to be ascertained by estimating
the value Of the land after the removal Of
the timber, and from the sum thus obtained
dedncting the estimated value of the land
on the first day Of January, 1867, or on the
day of purchase, if purchased since that date
8. Where no repairs have been made by
the taxpayer upon any building owned by
him during the preceding five years, moth
ing can be deducted for repairs made during
the year for which his income is estimated
10. A farmer should make return Of al
| his produce sold within the year, but mer'
exeeutory contract for a sale is not sale
delivery, either actual or constructive, is es
sential. The criterion by which to judg'
whether a sale is complete or not is to de
| lermine whether the vendor still retains II
that character q right over the property
the property were lost or destroyed, uPol
which Of the parties, in the absence OF any
! other relation between them than that of tn
vendor and vendee, would the loss fall.

THE New York World speaks of the Sep

good deal to call that assemblage mean

ton Of being encouraged and welcomed to

those secret Radical cabals who plot against
the liberties of the people in the name Of

Gently manifested by ANDREW JOHNSON,
under the guidance Of WIN. III. SEWARD,
with the prominent traitors of the country
and their political adherents; in his treach-
ery to the loyal people who trusted and
raised him 20 power; in his recent declara-
ton that he will use that power so as to
compel every man who holds Office under
Government to support his policy or give
up his bread; in his denial Of the right OF
the people of the loyal States to exercise
legislative powers in Congress in the present
condition Of the country; in his indecent
and ribald attacks upon their Representatives
for endeavoring 10 establish justice and pro-
tect a weak and helpless race from persecu-
ton, oppression, and slaughter; in his fra
ternity with the rebels Of New Orleans, re-
sulting in the horrible and causeless massa-
ere Of loyal, peaceful and virtuous citizens,
wicked in conception and fiendish in execu-
tioa, we recognize with profound disapPoint.-
ruent and sorrow, degree Of moral and
political depravity which has no parallel in
our history. We are thus admonished that
the utmost vigilance is now required on the
part of those by whose votes and arms the
nation was saved, in order TO secure the
fruits of their victory--justice with peace,
and liberty with union.
