o4hce. but Il mere agency, and the
appointment belonged to this body.
The gentleman from Vermont (Mr.
Morfill) said he desired to keep poll
tics ont of the Treasury It was for
this very purpose that he (Mr. S.
had proposed this amendment, for
the department, it seems, is regulated
by politics, and not by finance; and
the Secretary of the Treasury is pros
tituting his high Office for unholy
party political purposes.
Mr.. Delano, of Ohio, said that, as
he read the section of the bill re-
ferred to, the Secretary Of the Trea-
snry was empowered to appoint a
especial commissioner of revenue, )"
and consequently he was most GER
tainly an officer, and this House had
nothing whatever to do with the ap-
polntment. In what sort of an atti-
tude would this committee place
themselves if they took the power of
this appointment from the Secretary?
What has the Secretary Of the Trea-
sury done to provoke this attack? Is
he 4 slave, that he must not speak
his sentiments? Does he not have
an opinion Of his own? Must we all
square our opinions by a regular line,
at the dctation of an individual or
individuals? An officer of the Go
vernment can have his opinions, and
utter them if he wishes to do so. Just
such acts as these were creating a
very bad sentiment throughout the
country Why has the Secretary Of
the Treasury been denounced?
Mr.. Stevens. I denounce him be-
cause he is prostituting the patronage
of the Government so rs to make all
think as he does.
Stevens persistently refused to give
his authority for this charge, when
the discussion was terminated by the
committee rising.

Capital and Lnb Dor for the Soutl,.

Capital and Labor FOR the South.
We notice from time to time, the
departure from the Southern States
for Europe of agents in the interests
of Southern railroads, and of various
manufacturing and Industrial -activi-
ties They go to borrow capital for
the purpose of resuscitating the for
tunes of the South. Beauregard has
just started to Europe on a mission of
this kind in behalf Of the Louisiana
Railroad, and several of the Georgia
and Virginia lines are about to be
represented abroad by commissioners
with a similar object in view. We
trust that success Will crown these
efforts. There is no reason why
the capitalists, who loan their money
to almost any Of the industrial enter
prises Of the South, should not reap
large returns from it. The incompa-
rable resources Of the Southern
States are but in the infancy OF their
development, and their growth from
this time forward should be more
rapid and vigorous than ever before.
Besides these efforts to obtain CAPT
tai from abroad, we observe that there
is more or less activity in attempting
to secure European immigration for
the South. Almost every State has,
for tins purpose, q Bureau Of Immi-
grafton: and though few of the
Southern States are, at this moment.
in condition TO display such activity
in this line as characterizes the Wes-
tern States, yet all the Bureaus are
<>c -
way of extending invitations to set
tiers. Louisiana and Texas, however
are in a sufficiently sound financial
and industrial condition to do some
thing more than this; and resident
Of the last named State, who has been
visiting Great Britain for the purpose
OF encouraging immigration to the
Southwest, has come back with the
report that labor and laborers to any
extent can be obtained We hope
the Southern States will systematiZe
their efforts in this matter so that
those vast and fertile regions may
obtain what they most neeu-skill-
full, industrious and honest cultiva-
tors. immigration would not inter
ferc with the opportunities of the
negroes for obtaining livelihood;
for III the Southern tier of States, Mt
least, every man Of any color who is
willing to work has n snperabmdance
of profitable employment at his
hands, and from many quarters of
the Sonth we hear constant and earn
est calls for moro laborers.
1t is probable, moreover, that this
summer will be peculiarly favorable
feason for procuring large immigra-
ton from Europe The whole CONT
nent is agitated with the prospects of
general war. At such a time tens
of thousands would be glad to escape
to Il country where peace is perma
nently secured, and where opportu
mites are held out to industrious
I people such as are not approached in
any other country of the world. To
Texas, especially, we are confident Il
heavy German immigration might be
speedily turned. There are large set
Elements of this people there already
and though tho prosecutions they en-
dured for thcir loyalty during the re-
bellion are well known abroad yet
the facts that the power Of the Union
Is now firmly and finally fixed, and
that order and freedom are permu-
nently established, arc equally well

The Secretary of War, on Wednes-
day. sent 10 the House, in compliance with
resolution of that body, the report OF zen.
Stoneman relative to the recent Memphis III
OTIS. The latter says upon investigation gwen
the Commission, it appears THAT there were
killed outright a negroes, eight OF whom
wee discharged soldiers. The third colored
artillery has been stationed at Memphis since
its organization, aud consequently were not
| under the best of discipline. Large NUMBERS
of the men had what they called families nv
ing in South Memphis contiguous 70 the pc, tort
| in which the soldiers were stationed. THESE
| soldiers had been used as the instrument 10
execute orders of the Government agents,
| such as Provost Marshals, Bureau Agents,
| &c, and consequently had been more OF less
brought directly in contact with the law break
ing portion of the community, and the ponce,
which is far from being composed OF the pest
/ class of residents here, but pr1nclpaily OF
| Irishnen who consider the negro as his COM
| petitOr and natural enemy. Many negroes
have from time to time been arrested by the
| notice and many whites including some OF the
police. have been arrested by the negroes and
i in both cases those arrested have not un1re-
/ duentlv be q harshly treated. After giving
| the particulars of the riot, Gen. Stoneman
concluded by saying: "The rioters were COM
posed of the police, firemen and the faopie
| and negro hsters in general, with sprlnk-
/ ling of Yankee hsteTs, all led on and encour,
/ aged by demagogues and Office hunters, and
most of them under the Influence of whisky
1t appears in evidence before the Commission
that John Creighton, Recorder OF the city
made a speech TO the rioters, IN which he
said; 1--WE are not prepared, but let us pre-
pare to clean ont every negro s-n OF DLI
/ ont oil town." Very lew paI0ied eoniedefates
were mixed up with the rioters ON Tuesday
and Wednesday, the large proportion OF ths
rioters being registered voters. Who com

ASPARAGUS. DO not continue the
cutting too long. When peas come,
give the asparagus bed rest, and keep
off all weeds until the tops cover it.
BEANS of the bush sorts may be plant
ed for succession, and for dried beans.
1t is not too late to plant Limas and
other runners. The White Runner is
sold in many places as the Lima; though
a very good bean, it is inferior to the
Lima, and may be distinguished from
it by its greater plumpness, and more
shining surface.
CABBAGEs, CAULIFLowERs, AND BRoC-
CoI.-Plants of these may still be set
ont. The growing ones need to have
the ground frequently stirred, and they
will be greatly forwarded by the use of
liquid manure. Find the holes of the
cut worms and destroy them; kill cat
terpillers when young, and if lice are
troublesome, slft on AIR, slaked lime or
ashes.
CARROTS. Keep ahead of the weeds
by working the ground as soon as the
plants can be seen. Thin to six inches.
1t is not too late to SOW seed.
CELERY.-Set early plants in well
MANFRED trenches, or if fiat culture be
preferred, in rows three feet apart, the
plants six inches distant in the rows
plants for late crop should be watered
as needed, and be cut back to make
them grow stocky.
scarborough wedding and
thinning are more necessary to success
with this crop than to any other. Ev-
cry weed must be kept down, and if
good bulbs are desired, thin to or 4
inches in the rows. Boiling water pour
ed through a colander is one of the best
remedies for the maggot. When the
tops of potato onions fall over, pull
| them.
! Peas. Stick with brush as soon as
swell up, as when the plants fall over, it
is very difficult to get them to stand up.
4 Late planted peas should be put in
gdeeply worked soiled. If seed Is to be
saved, the earliest and best vines should
r. reserved for this.
RHUBARB.--If any flower stalks APP
appear, cut them down. Now is good
time to dry or bottle supply for win
ter. Keep the beds free of weeds.
RUTA BAGAs. Sow latter part of June;
as soon as up, dust with lime and ashes
to keep off the fly.
SPINACH. The New Zealand spinach
is best for hot weather, but a supply of
the ordinary kind may be kept Up by
sowing at intervals.-An5. AgricuLtUriSt
