In the Senate, on the 18th, the subject Of
the cotton tax was under discussion. Mr..
Conkliu, of. New York, proceeded to say,
that helping hand had been extended ia
these destitute communities The direct tax
had been suspended in all the insurrection.
airy States. The tax had been removed from
sugar machinery and other articles which
pertained to that country. He would saw
now that it would have been much better
for these people, if one of the parties of this
country, and the visible head of the Gov
eminent, had left them alone. 1t they had
stopped staggering about, and talking
about representation in Congress, and gone
to work to build up their Impoverished sec
ton, they would to-day have been much
happier, and so would we. If this tax was
taken off, it would wipe out twenty millions
of revenue, and they knew not where to 90
to replace it.
Mr.. c. indicated disposition to vote for
a reduction of the tax, but maintained that
the proper course was to postpone the bill
until February or March. when the whole
subject of Revenue would be up, and gave
notice of his intention to make a motion tn
that effect.
Mr.. Morton said that cotton should not
be entirely exempt from the burdens of the
Government.
The discussion assumed political turn
and the subject was postponed.
In the House, Mr.. Stevens introduced an
important bill on the subject of reconstruc-
ton.
This bill alters the provisions requiring
majority of the registered votes for the new
Constitutions to majority of the votes
cast.
The second section provides for the cleo
ton of representatives to Congress at the
time of the election on the Constitution, who
are to take their seats at the session sue
ceedng the one at which their States are ad-
mitted.
Section 3rd provides that, until a new
superintendent, the States shall be represent
ed as follows: South-Carolina six, two of
whom shall be elected by the State at large
North Carolina eight-one by the State at
large. Georgia eight-one by the State at
large. Florida one Alabama eight-two
by the State at large. Mississippi six-one
by the State at large. Louisiana six-one
by the State at large. Texas ive-one

number of representatives is given for Vir-
ginia.
The Rev. George w. Pepper will deliver a
Lecture on Friday evening next, at o'clock,
in the 2d Baptist Church-suIject, "IRE-

highly interesting one, as Mr. Pepper is a

DESTROY TIE CATERPILLARS. - At
this season the eggs of the apple-tree eat
erpillar-which may be found encircling
the ends of the small twigs of the tree
can be much more easily and completely
destroyed than they can at any other
time of the year. They can be readily
seen, and by choosing warm day for
the operation, with light ladder upon
which to ascend the tree, and small
basket in which to put the twigs con
tanning the nets--the work can be per-
formed most satisfactorily. Besides,
burning the nets is much better than
crushing or sudsing the full grown in
sccts.

Pruning when TranspInnttnE

We consider 1T important to shorten
back all fruit trees, shrubs and vines,
when transplanting. 1t lessons, by re-
ducing the number of buds, the demand
for supply on the roots us soon as that
laid up in the bud is exhausted, and it
gives increased vitality and vigor to the
remaining buds, by giving to them the
supply that would have been devoted to
those removed, had they been left TO re-
main. There is, however, room for study
in the practice of heading-in, because of
the vigor of growth and power of pro-
ducing strong, new shoots being much
greater In some sorts than others. The
peach, for instance, may be cut back to
within two feet of the crown, leaving not
limb or twig and yet the tree in the
ensuing fall will be found, under good
cultivation, to have made four or five
strong shoots, each as many feet long,
and with abundant lateral branches.-
Pursue the same course with the apple,
and nine times out of ten the result will
be only few feeble shoots of four to six
inches, with dead tree the following
spring. The pear, when worked OH the
ounce, will bear much more severe prun-
ing back than when OH the pear stock
and further, some varieties will endure
more severe pruning than others. The
grape, when cut back two or three buds,
grows vigorously; but if left unpruned,
il struggles year or two, produces few
imperfect punches, and il dead. These
are some of the many variations that an
observing horticulturist will notice on
short practice, and which will soon cause
him to feel confidence in transplanting
trees at any age, provided he be allowed
to prune them back according to theii
agc and habits.-[ [Horticulturst.

TO he Editor Of 1,e Belmont Chronicle:
SIR--The potatoes referred.to in the fol-
lowing, cut from the Ritchie Co., w. Va,
Press, are the Early Gooderidge. . From
four pounds of seed--at rs cents per h.,
Mr.. Leach raised five and one-fourth
bushels. They were ripe and dug the
lst of August, and probably are the best
early potato we have. The six kinds
referred to as lately raised from seed by
Professor Gooderidge-andc exempt from
the rot, because still in the health and
vigor of youth, probably are the Cusco,
Early Gooderidge, Early Sebee, Dixie
man, Garnett Chilli and White Peach
Blow. The first two are in this County,
but were not taken to the Fair, because
in the premium list NO, discrimination is
made in anything, between old-com-
mon and rotten.-and worthless varieties
and new ones--between the common rot
ten Peach Blow and the Cusco. All
fruits at the Fair go by size; as well
might horses be judged of by the pound!
PHEMIUM CROP OF POTAToEs.-We
some time since published an account of
yield of potatoes procured by Mr.. Il.
L. Leach, of this place, which we sup
posed at the time would stand at the
head of the list for the season; but we
now have the pleasure of chronicling a
yield that exceeds it by nearly one-half.
This was procured by John p. Harris,
Esq, of this vicinity, who, from four
pounds of seed, procured by mail from
the North, raised nine bushels of pota-
toes. The variety is called "Cusco," and
must be the most extraordinarily prolific
variety known. We understand that
this and all the other new varieties, six
in number, procured from the North last
spring, areexcmpt from the "rot," /" which
is very important fact at this time
when whole crops are being swept away
by this disease. We think it probable
that persons wishing to try the new va
rieties, could procure seed of j. p. Har
ris, Esq, and II. f. Leach, at this place

About twenty years ago, when Frank

the docket u celebrated suit called the |
"Horsc Case. " The action was brought |
by Smith aud Jones, livery stable keepers, !
against one White, TO recover the value
Of q pair of horses alleged to have been !
killed by the defendant while conveying |
an insane man TO the asylum ut Concord. !
There was plenty otproOf that the horses
died soon after their arrival there but
the defendant took the ground that they
died of disease and not from being over
heated, and that u sufficient time had
been allowed them to travel that distance
with ease. Then ii became necessary to
show the jury the time of starting and
the time of the arrival. Many citizens
were brought forward, among them tall,
