Mr.. J. a. Lee, OF Sumter county, has realized
this year on one acre OF poor pine land which had
not been manured for two years, twenty-five
busehels of corn and ten barrels OF syrup. Who
can beat this? and who will say that small
farmer is not perfectly independent in East Flori

On Wednesday fire broke ont in several por-:
tions Of Ocalee counter sweeping mcny fences and
the little wild vegetation that remained in the

The New York Times says: 'Four years ago,
when, tho war was at its height, and the ex-
penses Of the country were enormous, tre-
mendous effort was made in Boston, New York
and other large cities to introduce habits of
economy among the people, and especially among
the ladies. 1t was uphill work, and was soon
given up altogether; for though expenses were
great and living dear, money was plenty and the
opportunities for earning 1t abundant. Now,
however, large proportion of the people are
learning habits feconOmy without the efforts of
cieties, leagues, or popula meetings. The hard
ness OF the times, the duIness OF business the
scarcity of employment, and the difficulty of
making money, arc giving lessons Of economy in
quarters where heretofore they have never been
learned, and are giving harder lessons still to
many who have always boon compelled to practice
it. The severity of the present Winter is felt with
uncommon force and to an uncommon extent by
thousands who are willing to work. Let those
who have plenty refrain from waste, and let them
see so far as is in their power, that none suffer
from want"

THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA BILL-PossIBILITY OF
A DEFEAT OF THE COTTON TAX REPEAL BILL
GENERAL rANcocK-JoHN mitchell AND THE FE-
MANS.
WASHINGTON, December 20.-The veto OF the
bill striking the word white from District ordI-
nances did not come in to-day. There is some
difference of opinion, but the presumption is that
this withholding ofthe veto amounts to pocket
veto.
There was full meeting of the Cabinet to-day
count to-day indicates that the bill for the re-
peal Of the cotton tax, had the vote been taken'
would have failed by two votes. An ultimate moal-
fcation of the tax is probable; but it will hardly
apply to this years crop.
paragraph current that General Hancock was
a member of the Military Commission which hung
Mrs. Surratt, is untrue.

ED TO CONGRESS.
The following message was sent by the Presl-
don't to Congress on Wednesday:
Gentlemen Of Mc .Senate and Of Me House O
REPRESENTATIVES: An official copy OF the order Is
sued by Major General Winfield 5. Hancock, COM
mander of the Fifth Military District, dated head
quarters in New Orleans, Louisiana, on tho 29th
day of November, has reached Inc through the
regular channels of the War Department, and
herewith communicate it to Congress for such
action as may seem to be proper in view OF all the
circumstances
1t will be perceived that General Hancock an
nounces that he will make the law the rule OF his
conduct; that he will uphold the courts and other
civil authorities in the performance OF their proper
duties; and that he will use his military power
only to preserve the peace and enforce the law.
He declares very explicitly that the sacred night ol
the trial by Jury and the privilege OF the writ OF
habeas corpus shall not be crushed out or trodden
under foot. He goes further, and in one comprc.
hensive sentence asserts that the principles oi
American liberty still the inheritance OF this
people, and ever should be.
When great soldier, with unrestricted power
in his hands to oppress his fellowmen, voluntarl-
y foregoes the chance OF gratifying his sehsh
ambition and devotcs himself to the duty of build
ing up the liberties and strengthening the laws OF
his countrc he presents an example or TN NIGH
est public virtue that human nature is capable oil
practicing. The strongest claim of Washington
to be first in war, first in peace, ana hrst IN the
hearts of his countrymen," is founded on the
great fact that in all his illustrious career he
scrupulousy abstained from violating the legal
ard constitutional rights Of his fellow-citizens
When he surrendered his commission to Congress
the president of that body spoke his highest
praise in saying that he had always regarded the
rights CT The civil authorities through ali dangers
and disasters" Whenever power above the laT'
conrted his acceptance, he calmly put the teInpa-
tion aside By such magnanimous acts OF for
bearanac lo won the universal admiration OF man
kind, and left name which has 10 rival IN tho
history OF the world.
am far from saying that General Hancock i:
the only officer Of the American army who Is IN
fluenced by the example of Washington. Doubt
less thousands OF thom are faithfully devoted tc
the principles for which the men OF the revolution
laid down their lives But the distinguished honol
belongs to him OF being the first officer IN hlgl
command South OF tic Potomac, since the close
the civil war, who has given Itteronce to these
noble sentiments i'll the form OF Il military order.
1 respectfully suggest to Congress that some
public recognition OF General Hancocks patrloti'
conduct is DUE if not to him, to the friends OF Law
and Justice throughout the country. or such al
act as his at such time, it Is but TT that tue DIG
