How TO Build Cheap and Com
INV SoytabIe Dwellings

rhos. who have plenty OF money
hass the brains Of an archi-
tact to tell how to construct q house,
# they have none Of their own, oui
thcse who have but little money must
nlsn their own houses, perhaps build
them. The popular method OF con-
structing wood houses, particularly
cottages, has net been by any means
the NEST economical that can be de-
vised. From thirty to forty per cent
mere lumber has been used than Is
necessary, and much labor expanded
that is wholly concealed when the
house is completed and altogether
unnecessary. A small dwelling need
not be constructed as We would build
a warehouse or q grain elevator. IL
is never subjected 20 any test OF Its
strength, and wooden cottages never
fall down so long a. they have
good foundation and these little Or
dinsry repairs which all houses must
have TO stand the ravages Of time
No square timber. and but few scsnt-
ling are required in q small cottage.
Mortises and tenens are OF no &C.
count--indeed they are positive
detriment while braces are equally
useless.
The studdirg Of house may as
well be made OF inch boards four
inches wide as Of double that thick
ness. These studs will hold the
nails of the siding and the lath just
as well as those two inches in thick
ness. Just 80 the floor joists may
be of inch stuff, eight inches wide
Having laid up the cellar walls OF
stone and leveled them at the top,
boards should be laid on this wall to
form a sill. The bents OF the frame
may then be set up one after another
and stayed till the siding can be put
on. These bents may be made on
the floor jslsts, studs, cross joists for
the ceiling and rafters, all nailed TO-
gether firmly with cut nails, while ly-
ing upon the ground. Every piece
Of siding nailed to this frame, tends
to make it firmer and stiner, ana SO
do the laths upon which the mortar
Is to be spread. The partitions made
in like manner, well secured, also
tend to stiffen the whole tabric.-
With here and there good support
in the cellar, such house when COM
pleted would be just as desirable for
all practical purposes as one OF the
same size containing nearly twice as
much material, and it would certain
ly be Just as warm. A cottage with
five or six roems may be speedily
constructed on this principle at q
much less cost than in the popular
style Of building. This is q substan
tial building compared with those
constructed on leased lands about
Chicago, and they are deemed very
comfortable, apd their strength and
safety is not questioned. Some meth
cd must be devised to cheaper the
cost Of dwellings, and We know Of
none that commends itself so well as
this that we have suggested.-Raral

snow that the internal revenue Is being in
creased rather than reduced.
1t is the same with regard to the Tar1n bill, as
may be seen by referring 10 a table In yes
terday's Herald showing the increase oil tariff
over the old law In many articles tnat come
into common use. On ladies' dress goods,
woollens, bunting, shawls, worsted and cotton
damasks, tapestry and Brussels carpets, linen
goods, burlaps, canvas padding, brown nolland,
ETC., there Is an average OF about lorty 10 hlty
per cent. increased duty. Thls Is what onr
legislators call reduction OF taXatlon and
burdens. By analyzing The whole bill it will be
seen that the increased duty Wlll exceed tDe re-
6ucton taking one thing with another. But our
sapient Congressman and Interested protection
lists say this will act as prohibltion to imports,
and thus reduce our revenue and keep our gold
at home. This is q most ridiculous assumption.
Every one knows that whlle the American people
have money-and looking at the amount of
currency afoat, and the resources OF the coun-
try. there is no fear they win want it-they will
buy foreign goods. Ii the imports should be
reduced somewhat by this high tariff, the in-
creased duty will swell the revenue TO its present
or to larger amount. Instead of reducing the
revenue from imports it is more likely to in
crease 1t,
The questions arise, then, who pay for this,
and who profit by it? There is no necessity for
such revenue; we have more now than we
need. Indeed, 1t is fruitful source of corrup.
ton. The working people, the Western farmers,
the Southern planters, and all the lndustrlal
classes OF the country are taxed-not TO support
the Government, for the Government does not
need 1t, as we have shown--but to increase the
profits of few manufacturers and iron and coal
capitalists in New England and Pennsylvania.
1t is the most invidious, partial, ana infamous
legislation ever known IN the history oil TINS
country.
What can be done to arrest such ruinous
measures The President may be able to do it.
He may do it in the first instance by vetolng
these bills and he may make this the important
issue before the country in the coming elections,
Should he make q bold stand against the
present system of legislation, ana lay before the
country clearly and forclbly the whole financial
legislation of this corrupt and weak Congress he
will produce revolution in the public mind. Now
is the time to do this and it is the very question
on which he can touch the popular heart. The
financial question must become the paramount
one. Let Mr.. johnson make the issue at once,
and save himself and the country at the same
time.

Southern Delegates to the Philadelphia
Convention.
From the World.

FROM Wtc w OfLu
NIf, as now appears probable, the Southern
States shall conclude to send delegates to the
Philadelphia Convention, can they do better
than to send their entire Congressional delega-
tions straight through, including Senators and
Representatives? These will constitute half the
delegates called for in the circular. The other
half can be made up from other prominent and
representative men.
One of the principal benefits which the eoun-
ciousiy managed, Will be the w knowledge il will
gain in an authentic and indisputable shape of
the temper Of the Southern people and the ele-
ments which they will contribute to the Federal
legislation and legislature. The most authentic
showing which can be given will be that which
comes from the men whom the Southern States
have sent to represent them in Congress, and
whom the radicals have shut out of Congress.
They will be the best, the most qualified repre-
sentatives and exponents of all that the country
most nee DIS and desires to know.

Extraordinary Financial Legislation of
Congress.
Erom the Herald.

FROM Me Herald.
The legislation of Congress on financial mat
ters is most stupid and reckless. We did not
expect that the majority OF members, who are
mere local politicians or plain uneducated
countrymen, would be able to grasp the i'm
pSrtant and complicated question OF national
finance in all its bearings; but we did hope
there was sufficient intelligence and influence
in Congress to save tAe country from such dis
graceful legislation as we are witnessing. 1t
appears, however, we are disappointed; there
are no statesmen in that body, at least none with
sufficient influence to be heard. Bad as the
present state Of things is with regard to our
finances, the revenue laws, and the tariff, we
have settled down to that, and would rather
endure the evils we have, until we can elect an
abler and better Congress, than suffer the conse
quences OF the ignorant and corrupt legislation
to which we are subject.
There are two measures upon which Congress
has been spending great deal of time, and
which, under the circumstances, had better not
have been touched. We allude to the Internal
Revenue bill and the Tariff bill. The first passed
both Houses of Congress, and has been before
the President several days waiting his action
the second passed the House of Representatives
OR Tuesday last, by vote OF ninety-our yeas
to ffty'three nays, and now awaits the action OF
the Senate.
The changes made in the old Revenue and
Tariff bills, or the amendments they are
called, under the form OF new bills are profess
sedly with a view OF reducing the income of
the Government and lessening the burdens of
the people, but they will have no such effect.
On the contrary, we are persuaded that these
burdens will be increased. BY carefully look
ing over the changes made we see that what is
taken of or reduced in some things, is put on
or added to others; and generally this is done
so as 10 make 1t more oppressive to the produc-
ing classes-to the WORKING people, to the
great agricultural interests of the country, and
in favor OF certain sections and manufacturers.
For example, there are certain reductions or
changes in the Internal Revenue bill that may
reduce the income trihing amount but in
such manner that hardly any one will feel the
benefit; while on the other hand, the direct
taxes, which are most felt, are retained and
other taxes are added which will be more than
equivalent to those taken off. The new tax on
cotton alone, with anything like a full crop
will yield fifty millions Of dollars a year; but
with only two millions of bales il will Weld
from twenty-five to thirty millions. This is
what our legislators call reducing the internal
revenue. We do not propose to enlarge here
upon this infamous cotton tax-this tax on
agricultural Droductons--on people unrepre.
sented and bowed to the earth with poverty
and difficulties, nor on its expensive and cum
brous machinery, which places the planter al
the mercy of capitalists, spectators, aud in
terRRl revenue officers. We only mention it II

Extraordinary Developments Concerning
Napoleon HI-PrOphecy VS.. the BOhe-
v.nSuna


Napoleon HI-PrOphecy VS.. the BOhe-
mians. r...
From tee Daiky Nesos.
For some time past our literary Bohemians
have been sorely put to it to discover some
proper role for the French Emperor in the pre-
sent European complications. In this respect
the Bohemians on the other side of the Atlantic
have been Just as noisy in their prophecies as to
the ultimate purpose of the taciturn ruler of
France, as the Bohemians on this side; and the
result has been that between the two the most
impossible condition of affairs has been gene
rated in connection with the subject of their
speculations-not two Bohemians thinking alike
on the matter, and each setting up MS own
special theory as the correct one.
1t now appears, however, that the Bchemians
have all been wrong. While they have been
scratching their pates and racking their brains
In their duandary, and while they have been
limiting the Emperor's intentions to such such
