Tglatrbman & State Journal.
BY f. P WALTON.
MONTPELIER, FEBRUARY ?, 1865.

The President. The Washington correspon-
dent {" Agate,D of the Cincinnati Gazette is
very sure about the private opinions Of President
Johnson-that he is against nearly everything
proposed by the majority in Congress. We fancy
a very distinguished friend Of " Agate would like
to have it so il he cannot be President in any
other way Or, to reverse the statement that
" Agate is writing in the interest Of somebody
againat the President We observe also tee-
gram from Washington Jan %, purportng to
give the substance Of a conversation between the
President and Senator, in which the President
deprecated the numerous propositions to amend
the Constitution, and suggested the following
Representatives shall be apportioned among the
several states which may be included within this
Union. according to the number of qualified voters
in each State. a direct tax shall be apportioned
among the several states which may be included in
this Union according to the value OF all the tax
able property in each state
An amendment Of this kind would in his opin-
ion, place the basis Of representation and direct
taxation upon correct principles. The qualified
voters were for the most part men who were sub
iect TO draft and enlistment when it was necessary
to repel invasion, suppress rebellion, and quell
domestic violence and Instruction They risked
their lives shed their blood and periled their all
to uphold the government and give protection,
security and value to property Ii seemed but
lust that property should compensate for the bene-
fits thus conferred by deiraying the expenses incl
dent to its protection and enjoyment. Such an
amendment, the President also suggested, would
remove from Congress all issues in reference to
the political equality of the races.
1t would leave the states TO determine absolutely
the qualifications Of their own voters with regard
TO color, and the number of representatives to
which they would be entitled to in Congress would
depend upon the number upon which they con-
ferred the right Of suffrage
The President in this connection expressed the
opinion, that the agitation Of the negro suffrage
question IN the District Of Columbia, at this time,
was the more entering wedge TO the agitation of
the question throughout the states, and was i'll
timed, uncalled for, and calculated TO do great
harm. He believed that it would eugender en-
nifty, contention and strife between the two races,
and lead to a war between Them which would re-
suit in great injury to both, and the certain exter-
mination Of the negro population,
All we have to say is wait and see how the
President acts. These statements, both of the
newspapers and the telegraph must be taken with
a large margin for errors to be corrected. If, as
Mondays kilograms indicate, the President has
suggested any thoughts to a Senator on public ae
fairs, we do not therefore suppose that he is not
at liberty to modify his views when occasion shall
arise. Nothing is yet decided, by either Congress
or the President.

INTERMITTENT FEVER - lwORrANT DIscov-
ERY-Dr j. H. Salisbury of Cleveland, Ohio,
has made one of the most important discoveries Of
modern times, relating to diseases-the cause Of
remittent and intermittent ievers. This class Of
diseases has been commonly charged to the ma
laria or miasna Astounding in the neghborhood Of
sluggish streams, swamps, bogs, drains, and some
times freshly broken aluvial soil. But what is
this malaria or masma2 Professor Salisbury has
answered the question to the perfect satisfaction Of
medical men, by proving that the minute spores
Of plants which grow in these regions constitute
the poison. These spores rise in the night TO a
linul height, borne up by the heavy atmosphere,
and are inhaled by persons exposed to them,
causing agues and fevers; whereas in the day
time, when the air is lighter, the spores fall to the
ground. The height to which these rise in north
ern regions is from thiryfve to sixty feet, and at
the South from sixty to one hundred feet, or more
Physicians VIII see how this fact explains various
peculiarites in these diseases such as the attack
Of those exposed in the night in the swamps of
the South, while in the day time the same regions
may be visited with impunity or the fact that near
Charleston, s. c., the line of safety and exposure
is marked by well-deGned bank of fog or mist.
Prof Salisbury detected these spores by the micro
scope, and tested their poisonous power by taking
them to perfectly healthy region and exposing
healthy persons to their influence These persons
took the fever. Lime is death to the plants which
bear these spores.

WEALTH OF NEW York. - The city OF
New York is estimated TO be worth, in real

millions Of dollars. 1t paid in 1854 eighteen

thirty'seven millions, owing to the more per-
feet enforcement Of the law. IL pays to that
revenue about forty dollars for every man,
woman and child, and it is estimated that
nearly one-ff,h Of the national revenue comes
from New York. One tobacco manufacturer
pays $4,000 month. and one cf the gas
companies pays $500 900 a month. Three
or four distillers are assessed $500, 600 a
