The National Intelugeucer, in continuing its
discussion of the So ject OF Reconstruction in
Virginia, and the ''daugers of the SITUATION,
thinks that the Radical leaders who are now
engaged in manipulating" affairs in this
State, have both "the ear of Congress and
more il Au nee even with the military arm,
than it is pleasant TO contemplate. Never
theless we hope they may be defeated 10 their
schemes before Congress, and by the people,
il fair registry can he IF c'ed.

aim )st believe it would be an inestimabe
boon to the black mao, and great comfort to
the white man if there could never be another
election ia Virginia. So greatly changed are
the blacks since all political agitation has
ceased, that it is difficult matter to realize
that We are living amid the same population
which surrounded US eight months ago. Then,
they were idle, inso ent, unreliable and noisy.
Now, they are more quiet, polite cordial and
co filling in their Intercourse with the whites,
and exhibit many of their old traits of sym.
patty, atfec ion and reliance. But they need
The sympathy and assistance OF their whites
friends more than ever before. During the
time of planning and working corn they were
giving themselves almost exclusively to pol.
ties the result OF which is, that they have
made but little to suosst on. And this winter,
fear, will Re the last that many will ever see.
The Aooitionists have made them free, made
them poor, made them miserable and made
themselves fearfdyresponSi6le for the results
OF their pseudo phl!anthrophy to the coiored
people OF HANOVER.

TIE Pork MARKET. The Cincinnati Ga
zette urges farmers to sell their hogs. 1t says
Do not stand on the order of selling, but
sell at once Do not Kill pork for home use,
but sell the last hog. 10 addition, turn in
every pig that can be tatted by the middle of
March, aud pour ia the corn. Hogs may not
be as high in March as they are now, but they
will be high enough to pay good price tor
corn. 1t used to be considered that barrel of
-four and 100 lbs of pork should bring about
the same money. Now the price OF 100 lbs OF
pork will buy two barrels of flour, There is
something wrong here. We lave had mod.
crate crop OF wheat and an immense crop OF
corn Therefore it would seem pork is too
high or wheat is too low. This point we shall
not undertake to discuss. but it is undoubtedly,
a good time to sell hogs. Hogs are now selling
at full $25 per head net The packing at the
West, 1t is estimated, will reach three million
head This, at $40 per head, which is fair
average, would reach $60,000,000. This will
be mainly circulated in five States. 1t will 90
far toward helping the people out OF debt. Sell
your hogs, then farmers, and pay your debts.
This would make money easy, and then there
would be better market and better prices
for other farm products.

TRAGEDY NEAR CHATTANooGA.-A tragic
affair occurred On Salt creek, 40 miles below
Chattanooga few days since. Mr.. Beane, q
school teacher, attempted owhip boy named
Hutchinson, who resisted and left school. A day
or two afterward young Hutchinson, accompani-
ed by his brother and man named Smith
visited the school house for the avowed pur-
pose of chastising Beane, and not finding
him there, they proceeded to his residence
Beane saw them coming, and anticipating their
errand, armed himself, as also did Mr.. Moore,
who happened to be at the house. On their
arrival Hutchison said they intended giving
him (Beane) a thrashing Moore remonstrat
ed, when Smith drew pistol and shot him
dead This was o signal for all to produce
pistols. Beane shot and instantly killed Cyrus
Hutchisop, brother of the schoolboy. He had
scarcely fired when Smith, who had instantly
killed Moore, fired another barrel of his re-
peater at Beane; the ball struck, but failed 10
Immediately disable HIM. Beane then turned
on Smith and lodged three balls in his body,
iDficting wounds which resulted MORALLY in a
few minutes. Twenty IA putes after the ARRAY
commenced Moore, Beane. Cyrus Hutchinson
and Smith lay dead on the ground within few
feet of each other Hutchson's brother was
the only person who escaped unhurt.

THE BRITISH TREATY. The Washington
correspondent of the Baltimore Sun says:-"It
wss announced about q month ago that our
government was not entirely satisfied with the
details of the protocol agreed upon by our
minister and the British government, and
about that time received at the State Depart
ment in dispatches from Hon. Reverdy John
son. To this may be added, further, that our
minister Was, in off :ial communications sent
by return steamer, informed wherein the pro-
tocol was unsatisfactory, and alterations were
suggested.
MIR. johnson was instructed to have these
speedily acted upon, and to submit the result
OF his conference to the State Department at
as early day as practicable, and now there is
reason TO believe that the points OF difference
have been so determined as to insure q prompt
ratification of the treaty by the United States
Senate, to which body the administration ex-
poets to submit the matter some time in the
coming month.
