WASHINGTON, March 7.-Since the Presi

ing the repeal Of law relative to the Treas

Of member. OF Congress upon the subject
Som. Republicans declare that they will
vote for the resolution asked while Others
express 4 rcpugnance, but will do nothing to
emnara.< the President at the commence
Ineut &c his administration.
| Mr. Stewart, the new Secretary of the Treas
ury, had consultation witt. various Sena-
tors to-day.
| Ii is now probable the Presi1en, will with
draw his message, and Mr.. Stewart will de-
cline. and leave the President free to mako
another appointment.
On account of the amount Of husiness be-

GRANT AND HIS CABINET.

II il evident from Grants Cabinei
appointments that he means 10 surround
himself with men whose first wish, and
whose most strenuous aim is the good
Of the county. Looking upon tho oc
eurrenees of our later history, he sees
,ha, i, has been too much the object of
Presidential administrations to frame
and assist such circumstances as would
Tend, primarily, to the achievements
and Strengthening of certain political
ends. In 30 far as Grant has any
"policy it will be applied TO avoid
this. We look over bis Cabinet and We
perceive nous Of the recognized,
s,anding candidates for the Presi-
dency. Looking at the bead of his
Cabinet, We perceive a man with whom
The President is on terms of the bearti
est friendship, and with whose bottoms
~ publicist he is in the warmest
sympathy. We believe that Grant will
have . brave, manly and American
like foreign policy, which will do more
to Strengthen our nationality and give
NJ power and influence abroad that We
could hope 10 achieve under The insiu-
serities Of Seward-whose ideas Of
diplomacy are framed upon tho Euro
pean mud i, and whose sympathies are
the reverse of Republican. The atmos-
phers of foreign courts has been suffer
ed to Affect our civil service far too
long. The hippancies of aristocratic
England and double dealing Frn3ce,
have grown to- common amongst our
public mrn. The spirit and letter of a
genuine Democracy should be restored
TO US again. England hiss been suffered
u prttifog with US upon the Alabama
claims until an earnest, decided policy
Of our own 10 demanded. That Grant
sees and feels this to he true is clearly
Indicated in the significant sentence 10
which be alludes to our dealings With
foreign powers.
We certainly hope that Stewart may
Be retained in the Cabinet. What the
objection to him may be which requires
the repeal 9th law of 1889. We can
not guess, unless that law makes
. foreign born citizen ineligible
to the Office of a Cabine
Minister. a. T. Stewart was born
in Ir-land.) Tie fact as quoted
in tbs Eastern dispatches that upon the
receipts of Stewards appointment gold
fell on Wall street is a powerful srgu-
mon, in bis favor.
The problem which Grant seems de
termin~d to solve is q tremendous ono
He evidently means, as far as possible
- rescue the couatry from the sway OF
i" rings > both in aud out of politics
II remains 10 see how far the people
can and will sustain such an endeavor
how far. indeed, a Reformation can
be carried on toward that perfection
which is so much needed. In coming
into power Grant has found, not " cloth
il the mart aud sehism within the tenn
pls." but . political condition which
Bafsty demands should be checked and

demands puriiction and = tone in
public affairs which 10 in strenuous
reed Of improvement. Will our new
good and difficult purpose
10 accomplished or will bis admins
Iration furnish the sad illustration thai
Ibis Government cannot be carried on
lpoa that higher and nobler plane
which would seem to be his ideal flhe
grade upon which the course of the
Grsa, Republic should be directed?

MANUFACTORIEs.-We were
pleased to see in the Jefferson
Times of the 10Th inst, that our
enterprising neighbors have gone
rightly to work, to organize a
manufacturing company in that
place. A cash capital Of $4,000
has been subscribed for the pur-
pose of establishing a cotton and
wool factory, and already saw
mill has been put in operation,
and greater part Of the WOODEN
machinery received. This is a step
in the right direction. A few
more in the same way will lead to
the commercial independence and
wealth of the Southern States
and that city, which leads in this
movement, will become the com
mercial emporium of the South

COMMUNICATED.

Mr.. EDITOR.-The idea has oc-
CURED to me that it would be more
profitable to plant an orchard Of
several kinds of fruit together than
in separate lots. Twenty-Five feet
apart is the usual distance for
planting apple and peach trees.
Might they not be placed closer
ifevery alternate tree was a peach,
and the others apples? The peach
and apple will not graft together,
which shows that the food Of those
trees is not precisely the same.
Therefore, wherein the peach
would take from the soil the appel
would not, and vice versa. Again
it has been found that by the con-
tinual growing of the same crop
upon any given field, the soil is
sooner exhausted than by growing
different crop yearly, for several
consecutive years. To apply the
principal of rotation in crops to
orchard growing, could only be
done in measure BY planting to-
gether those fruit trees that will
not graft together. For instance
apples, peaches, chinquapins and
mulberrys, might be grown to-
gether on this principal, for they
will not graft one to the otheE but
peaches, pluns, cherries, apricots
and stone fruit generally, could
not.
Suppose an orchardist should
desire to lay out and plant orch
ards on this principal, he ought
to select those kinds of trees that
grow nearly the same size. For
instance the apple and the peach,
here, the pear and the plum, there,
and again the ounce and the
cherry, might severally be planted
together.

NEW ORLEANS. BATON ROUGE

NEW ORLEANS, BATON ROUGE
AND VICKsBURG RAILROAD
The Baton Rouge Courier says
this:
We have learned that work
will soon be commenced on the
New Orleans, Baton Rouge and
Vicksburg railroad, and that eff
forts are being made to procure
some assistance from the General
Government. RumOr has it that
surveys have already begun, and
that the work will be pushed for
ward with vigor. Nothing should
stand in the way Of this great en-,
terprise, and we hope there will
be public spirit enough in the
community to grant the right of
way, even without charter privil-
eyes.

A free pass over the jackson
railroad seems to have corrupt
ed the publisher of the Livings-
ton Herald n. 0. Republican.
That 'cut direct is we'll de-
served, no doubt; though we do
not exactly see the point at
this distance, yet we will right
here and now have our say in
the matter probably alluded to-:
the system of free passage, or
'dead-heading' editors and pub
fishers over railroads, steam
boats, at hotels, ETC., and receiv-
ing 'puffs' in return. Let edi-
tors charge for what they do,
and pay for what they get.
This system of begging is not
only a disgrace to the profess
sion but a burning shame to
the name of man. Why should
editors presume upon more
privileges than any other class
or profession? Are they any
better? or do they modestly
consider themselves 'the elect?'
1t is true, in many instances, a
great amount of labor, in the
way of putting is gratuitously
done, for which these dead
beat" bohemians set up a con-
tlnual growing coupled with
satlrical charges of ungrateful-
ness on the part OF the public;
yet these charitable ink-sling-
ers do not admit that there was
no compulsion about the mat
ter, neither was there solicita-
tion,. therefore, they could not
reasonably expect compensa-
ton. Probably it would be
better for all parties were a
major part, at least, of this
systematic penny-a-lining left
undone.

recently discharged twenty four
female employees and one male
clerk, who had been there for fifty
