As EARLY as the last of November all
the work appertainlng to the crops is
done. A few things remain to be attended
to before the ground freezes, the snow flies,
and out-of door farm operations are neces-
sarily suspended.
First of all, make the gathered crops
safe. Few persons are aware of the i'm
mense loss sustained by potatoes freezing
in cellars. A few years ago, the thermo-
meter going suddenly down to between
twenty and forty degrees below zero, with
the ground entirely uncovered, it was es-
timated that at least one. half the potatoes
stored in one of the New England States
were utterly spoiled, and greater or less
proportion in all the States northward of
the uppermost boundary of Pennsylvania
The spring following, potatoes were from
one dollar to a dollar and half bushel
whereas they should not have been over
seventy five cents The remedy is to thor
oughly bank up the cellars. Ifthere seems to
be need that the Garth should reach above
the sheathing, tack few rough boards
lust above the under pinning, and then
let the bank of dirt and turf rest against
them, and not the painted side Of the
house.
DO not be afraid Of making your bank
too large. The probability is that the
winter will be one of extreme If not un-

M. senate still holds the tenure-of-ofhce
low ,ise lion under lis paw; but, unlike
the lion. 1t wears smooth and oomplaoent
face.seIt promptly approves tho Presidents
nominees, many Of whom succeed men VINO
ara removed without any charge affecting
their official conduct. This is q mookefs
while the law is in force.
Still the Senate labors under disadvan-
.sses. Many senators have applications
for ofsoe, and though they may check Cen
eral GnAsr in the matter of removals from
Office. they canno. make him give offices TO
their friends. A few days since senator
came to him with roll of papers covering
various recommendations for office. These
papers were returned to the pocket OF the
senator in . hurry upon reference by
General GRANT to the tenure.of-othce law.
The, Washington correspondent Of the
NewcYork Commercial Republican, makes
the following statement:
"Mr. JULIAN, of Indiana, asked General
"GsANT If the fact that an ofice-holder is
"a Democrat, and has been JOHNSON
oman. would in itself be sufficient cause
"for removal' The President replied that
"he should protect ofice-holders who dc
"their duty, whatever may be their poll
"tics, if the law remains, against both
Executive and senatorial interference
"This he had said to senators, and the jus,
I" tice of the view was acknowledged"

Mr.. Boutwell, and the Public Debt

Mr.. Boutwell, and the Public Debt
AsMr. Boutwell, is at the head Of the
fiscal department of the Government his
opinions and policy on the subject OF the
public debt have become somewhat import
ant. In July last he submitted IN the
House of Representatives a substitute Tor
the Senate bill; in this substitute MIR.
boutwell, proposed the funding OF $l,zoo'-
600, 900 of the public debt-s400, 00O,C GOO
payable in fifteen years at FIVE per cent. in
terest, s4Oc, 100000 payable in twenty
years at four and half per cent. interest,
and $500, 100000 payable in twenty-five
wears at three and sixty-fve hundredths
per cent. interest. He advocated the ap-
plioation of oil surplus revenue to the pay
ment of the debt, and he calculated upon
rapid increase of revenue, and thought the
debt small one. "When we consider"
said he, "that we have paid 81 900, 100000
in less than four years, what is to be said
of the $4,000, 100000 remaining" He
asserted that this debt, considering the in
creased means of the country, was no
heavier than $l27, 100000 at the close of
the war of 1872. He advocates the rapid
liquidation of the present debt and an
early return to specie payments.
Whether the President selected Mr.. BOUT
WELL because of his views is question.
Probably General GRANT thinks they are
we'll enough, but he will no doubt have his
own to press upon Congress.

The Vacating of Offices.

The resolution of Congress vacaslng all
Offices held by persons unable to take the
test-oath WAS finally passed by the House
Of Representatives by the adoption Of the
senate's amendment to the same on the I'd
Of February. 1t remained in the Presi-
dents hands ten days, and became law,
he having failed to approve or disapprove
il. Under the rule, the resolution took
effect from that day, the 18th ultimo.
Thirty DAYS from that time brings US to the
18th, which was yesterday, when, under
the resolution, the Offices held by those who
cannot take oath were to be vacated.
The res olution has not been officially
communicated to headquarters of this dis
trict, and General SToNEMAN is not called
upon to take any step in the matter. In:
deed, it enforces itself by attaching Pc
nalty to the holding Of Office by such per-
sons after the l4th; nobody We suppose
being willing to incur the penalty. Gene
raj SLOVENIAN or his successor, if he is here
in time, will have the embarrassing duty
of endeavoring to fill Offices thus vacated
with very limited and imperfect material.

The Secretaries.

The reports of the heads of Departments
Of the Federal Government, beginning in
the early days with very brief communica-
tons grew in detail and verbiage until
they became Of unreliable length-intole-
rable bores. The accumulated schemes and
suggestions Of year were gathered into
the Secretary's portfolio, and being elabo-
rated in style showing sufficiency Of
self-consequence and attempt at effect,
they were emptied upon Congress. OF
course that body was incapable of the
labor Of wadiDg through the mass of sug-
gestion, speculation, and argument which
the departments spread before 1.-THE ag-
gregste bulk Of which grew to be almost of
incredible dimensions.
The habit has tended to inspire those
holding Cabinet positions with an undue
independence and arrogance. In one in
stance Mr.. COBB, while Secretary of the
Treasury, took the opportunity to differ ma
terially from Mr.. BUCHANAN, then Presi-
dent, on the subject of the tariff. GOLD
BUCK" endeavored, by trimming little, to
propitiate the iron and coal interest Of
Pennsylvania. COBB poured broadside
into the whole system Of discrimination and
protection. The Federal Cabinet has, in.
deed, become conclave Of some half o
dozen Presidents. The real President lost
consideration, and was very much Whitfield
down by his advisers from the state which
was accorded to him in the beginning.
General GRANT has avowed himself a.
opposed to long reports as well as long
speeches.. We trust he will be able to Cut
them down to reasonable dimensions. The
Federal Government is big institution
1t cannot be conducted 80 much now upor
the basis Of scribbling and palaver as for
merly. Men must now come to the point
without circumlocution, and the order o.
the day must be action-action The
nation has been well-nigh talked and writ
ten to death. We hope General GRANT vii
give us some time to recuperate.

The LONDON TINES "Nor AFRAID. "-The
London Times has an article on war be-
tween Great Britain and the United States
on account Of the Alabama claims. 1t
does not profess to believe that var is pro-
bable but takes issue with Mr.. REvERDY
JOHNSON upon a remark submitted by him
that Q war would be s'vastly more disas-
trous to England than the United States.
It confssses that Canada might be forced
to surrender, but contends that that would
DO "no loss" to England. The Times
continues in the following arch manner to
compare capabilities Of destruotiveness be-
tween the English and the Americans, in
which that paper rather infringes the
patent Of the Confeds, and, furthermore,
draws it rather strong as to "what has
happened d" and "what may" etc., with q
wink in this southern direction that will
not get q wink back:
"The suggestion that numerous Alabamas
would scour every ocean in search of the
British asg and lie in wait in the crowded
track of our Australian galleons is o
thought of retaliation that must be only
too natural. But neither is the menace
necessary nor is It SO certain that 100 should
