Pen Portrait of Jefferson.

Jefferson was a STRIPPING Of seven
teen, tall, raw boned, lreckied and
s~audy-haired when in 1850 he came
TO Williamsburg from the far west
OF Virginia to enter the College Of
William and Mary. With his large
feet and hands, thick wris 8 and pro-
minent cheek bones and chin he
couldnot have been accounted hand
some or graceful. He is described,
however, as II fresh, bright, healthy
looking youth, as straight us Il gun
barrel, sinewy ARMSTRONG, with that
alertness of movement which comes
Of early familiarity with the saddle,
gun, canoe, mlnuet and country
dance-that sure, elastic tread, and
ease of bearing which we still
observe in country bred lads WHO
have been exempt from the ruder
tolls Of agriculture, while enjoying
in full measure the freedom and the
sports of tho country. His teeth,
too, were perfect, which alone re-
deems a countenance destitute of
other charms; his eyes, which were
of hazel gray, were beamihg and ex-
pessive, and IN his demeanor grave,
assurance of gentle heart and
sympathetic inquisitive mind. Such
lads eager and uniformed, still come
to college from honest country
homes, IN regions where agriculture
is carried on upon a scale that al
lows some leisure to the farmers
family, some liberality Of expendi-
ture, books music, q tincture of art
and hospitable airs. How welcome,
how dear to instructions worthy of
them, are such unbackneyed minds
in DO les unimpaired.

bridges Over the Ohio.

For years the question OF fixing some
uniform distance between the. spans OF
bridges which may he built over the
Ohio river, and the height which said
bridges must be built above nigh and
low water, has been an open one in
Congress. Attempts have several times
been made during the past three years
to get some general law enacted upon
the subject; delegation after delegation
have been here from Cincinnati and
other localities, urging such legislation.
but all went home disappointed. The
fruit of all the labor which has been
bestowed upon this subject is now seen
in the passage Of general law by the
House last week, requiring that all
bridges built over the Ohio, below the
mouth of Big Sandy, shall be at least
one hundred feet above low water mark,
and forty feet above high water, and
with a space Of not less than four
hundred feet between the piers, and the
passage OF a similar bill by the Senate
on Yesterday, although not the original
House bill. Both branches Of Congress
having expressed the same conclusion
ON this subject, it may now be accepted
as certain that the above distances will
in the future govern the building OF all
bridges over the Ohio Washington L't'

SPECIAL NOTICES.
What Spring Brings With IL.

Regarded from a medical standpoint,
Spring Is not the dclectable season de-
scribed by vernal poets. On the contrary,
its yield of intermittent fevers, bilious at
tacks, rheumatic pains, disorders OF the
stomach, nervous complaints and pulmo-
nary diseases, Is almost as large as Its crop
OF yiolets, spowdrops and cherry blossoms.
The invisible seeds OF innun cradle maia-
dies rise with the morning mists, and are
scattered broadcast by the yapors OF night.
Who can resist their mephitic influence?
Certainly not the weak by nature, or those
whose nervous energies have been over
tasked by mental or physical labor, unless
.hey tone and invigorate their systems, and
thus enable them to cope with the un.
healthy influences by which they are SUR
rounded.

..Naturnl Protection"

- Mr. Kerr, in his great speech on the
Itariff, gave some figures to illustrate the
"Naturai Protection extended to
American manufacturers that must
have caused sinking Of soul to the
selfish advocates OF artificial protection.
A ton of Scotch pig iron, costing
$50 so in Glasgow, cannot be laid down
in New York or other seaboard city for
less than 1861, and, it shipped to
Indiana, TO compete with the pig to be
made in the famous block coal regions
of that State, would cost $50.45. Thus
the Natural Protection" Of American
pig iron amounts to $l5.I7 at the sea-
board, and $29.6S on the prairies,
equivalent to IS per cent. and IA per
cent. for the respective cases. A ton
of Welsh railroad iron, costing s37 in
Cardiff, cannot be laid down in New
York for less than $67 sc, nor in Indi-
ana for less than $S4.16. In this
case the Natural Protection would
be for the respective localities
$3O.3G, $47.l3 and the per-
ceutage 50 and 22G per cent. AS the
difference in the cost Of American iron
and British iron is not even claimed to
be other than the difference in the cost
of labor, for which protection" is alone
demanded, and as the total labor en-
ployed in making pig iron is less than
10 per cent. of the whole cost, aud OF
railroad iron less than 80 per cent. a
natural protection ranging from 10 to
225 per cent. -hould certainly seem to
cover all possible demands in the case,
no matter how exorbitant they may be.
How different is the case OF the farmer
from that OF the manufacturer Our
agriculturists are Al per cent. of the
whole population they do not receive,
nor do they ask, any form OF artificial
protection; and at the same time their
productions are forced to compete in the
markets of Europe with the products OF
"pauper labor" there under all the dis
advantages of a distant market, dis
ordered home currency, exorbitant
freishts, and enhanced cost OF produce
ton. Yet, even while thus struggling,
the monopolists and manufactures de-
mand to be allowed to saddle upoa their
shoulders the additional enormous bur
dens of a tariff such as the world never
cav before, and. as an equivolant for
this sort of taxation, offer to give them

THIRTY millions Of dollars are asked
Tor to support the army OF the United
States for the current year, and this,
100, in the face of the fac. that FOR the
last year of the war, 1865, Congress
gave for the army $l,030,690, 400, and
for the navy sl22,6l7,434. A large
part OF this money WAS expended for
material and supplies and never used,
but added to the enormous accumula-
lions scattered over the country. In
1866 the United States was richer
in all the elements for active war, on
land and ses, than any other nation in
the world Among the material sold since
the war are three hundred and sixty
three ships, of which the documents
give no official record; and yet even

The tea and coffee question seems TO
he treated with the same indirectuess
and chicanery as the amnesty bill and
the repeal of the income tax. The
majority profess TO favor tire legislation
that would satisfy the public, yet al
WAYS some means is found to defeat the
measure. Amnesty was defeated by a
most paltry dodge. while separate bills
have been passed in the House and the
Senate TO repeal the tea and coffee tax,
but it is not repealed, because the two
Houses have not assented to the same
bill. How long this paltry duplicity
will be carried on it is difficult to say
but competent authority expresses
the belief that after all, the repeal Of
the tax will probably be prevented.
