Retrenchment. ,*j

4J It Li not a little humiliating—shall we say digmting?—to Republicans generally to learn that the chiefs of the Execfti*#

Departments of the national Government, with the single honorable exception of Attorney General IIOAB, have submitted 'J estimates of expenditures for the ensuing vear exceeding those of the last year of

A. JOHNSON'S corrupt and profligate admin istration! For the single item of publie wofks the estimates call for |24,G25,123, against $4,593,000 last yearp-..-

Now we undertake to say that there is no imperative necessity for uiguration of new 'public works on the enormous estimate of $24,000,000, and we call upon members of Congress to resist this demand and to cut down the estimates of all the depart nients, for all purposes, to the Jowest practicable figure. The Republican party is solemnly pledged, irrevocably committed, to rigid economy in the public service. The people look to the House of Representatives for the faithful redemption of- this pledge, and they arc not in a temper to brook anything like carele^ness or indifference. Mr. DAWES, Chairman of the Committee on Appropriations, appears to appreciate the situation perfectly. In a recent speech he said: "In this House alone the pledges of the Republican party are to be redeemed. They can have no aid either at the other end of the Avenue or at the other end of the Capitol, and he put it to the representatives ofthe people, whether they would inaugurate the new public works on the broad estimate of twenty-foul- millions. He had aright to complain of the other end of the Avenue, that, with all its professions of economy, and with its heralding by telegraph and-otherwise of the reduction of the debt, there was but one of theso Departments that did not estimate an increase of expenditures over the appropriations of last year, lhe exception was in favor of the unpopular Attorney General.

It will be seen that Mr. DAWES used very plain English, and it will be admitted that the occasion demanded it. His speech, throughout, was in the most vigorous and decided tone, and we hope it produced some effect upon the Republican members of the House. If those gentlemen desire to put the knife to the throat of their party, the most expeditious way of doing it is to vote unnecessary appro priations. But if they wish to prolong Republican dominancy in Congress, and to promote the interests of their constituents, they will cheerfully respond to the appeal of Mr. DAWES, when he called upon them to "stand by the Committee on Appropriations in the pledges which it now gives to the country, that it would cut down these estimates below the figures at which the country took the power from ANDREW JOHNSON."

For our own part we have no soft words no honeyed phrases, for such a time or such a case as this. We believe the man who deliberately proposes to take $24,000,000 for new public works, when the people are groaning under the heavy burden of taxation that now rests upon their weary shoulders, is the very antipo des of patriotic—is a man not fit to be trusted in any place of power. It is the duty of the press and the people to pro test most vehemently against the expen diturc of a single dollar not called for by absolute, imperative necessity. It may be that there are men in high places at the Capital who will disregard the voice of the people, but a majority in the House of Representatives may be relied upon to yield to popular pressure, if the pressure is applied vigorously and persistently.— Let it be thus applied.

JUDGE CADWALADER of the U. S. District Court in Philadelphia, has rendered an important decision in an internal revenue case. The case was that of GEO. DOLL, of the firm of GEORGE DOLL & Co., heard on a writ of habeas corpus to be discharged from arrest because of refusal to deliver his books to the United States Assessor. The counsel for the defense made the following points: First, that the act under which the income tax is levied is unconstitutional and void, as undertaking to levy a capitation, or at all events a direct tax, b^§the rule of-uni-formity and not that of apportionment second, .that to compel a citizen who has once made a return of his income to produce his books, is unconstitutional, inasmuch as the Constitution of the United States declares that no person shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness agaiast himself third, that the power sought to be conferred upon the Assessor is really the "judicial power of the United States," which can only be exercised by judges fourth, that the proceedings are an infringement of the citizen's constitutional right of a trial by jury in every criminal case. At the close of the argument, Judge CADWALADER, without hesitation, discharged Mr. DOLL.

THERE has been considerable comment upon the supposition that the President of the United States tendered the Supreme Judgeship to the lamented EDWIN M. STANTON only after he had been urgently recommended to do so by the Republicans in Congress, when the fact Is, if we may credit the Philadelphia Press, that the tender was made in his name by the Attorney General of the United States some weeks previously. As long ago as last summer, while Mr. STANTON was in New England, the same official indicated to him this purpose of General GRANT. Mr. STANTON received it with much pleasure, and trusted his health would enable' him to enter upon its duties,

THE Memphis papers represent that the emigration now passing through thero daily, from Georgia, Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina and Alabama, going to Arkansas and Texas, is very large. This emigration is not confined to the white people the negroes are on the move hunting new homes in the land of cotton. It is stated that the negroes have an idea that their race will ultimately be settled in a section of country to themselves somewhere west of the Mississippi.

GOVEKNOH CHAMBERLAIN, of Maine, in his late message makes an eloquent and truthful appeal in behalf of lighter taxei. He argues that we have done our share in the great labor of abolishing slavery and preserving the Union, and that it is unwise if not unjust to cramp the energies of this generation in hasty efforts {to pay the entire National debt. The latter, he says, is a boon which .we ought to invite posterity to share in common with the other blessings which they will inherit, through sacrifices already made by our generation.

THE New York Tribune defines wifemurder as "simply the culmination of wife-beating" and lemarks that "the .wretch in Brooklyn who has just fatally stabbed his second wife, who also killed his first wife, and served out a part of a term of imprisonment for that crime, was a habitual wife-beater. The number of brutes who maltreat their wives is continually on the increase in New York City. In England, public whipping has been seriously considered as a yuitablc and effective punishment for this offense. There must., however, be a grave defect in laws or the execution when the criminal who has killed one wife can have opportunity to beat and butcher •another. A statute to deprive such a monster of any legal right to_marrv afterward might act as a check upon acts of violence to living Wives as well as prevent the succession of new victims. And whatever tends to curb the earlier stages of cruelty will diminish the frequency of its fatal consummation." lyt,tffil

THE PROSPECTUS of the New York 'Tribune is published in this issue, and the attention of Republicans is invited there to. The Tribune already has a large circulation in our State, but we should like to have it placed in thousands of families whereat is, as yet, a stranger. The course of that journal may not have been right at all times, but it ha3 always been honest. Pioneers have nothing but their own judgment} and conscience to direct them, and will be liable to err as long as humau judgment is fallible but it is hardly kind or in good taste for those who lag behind and profit by their experience to fling up their occasional failures as jnst grounds of reproach. In this connection we.desire to say to Republican Executive Committees and others of influence in the party, that the cheapest, safest and best way to carry the next election, and all future elections, is to put some good Republican journal in every family in the State •where one isjnot already taken and where it will be pei-mitted to enter. Do this, and you may dispense with the usual costly, noisy and disagreeable electioneering arrangement, and may r-est assured that the work will be more thoroughly and permanently done than it could be by any other means. *-.**

THE ONEIDA COMMUNISTS.

Worse than Mormonism. ^3

From the Springfield (Mass.) Republican!!' The Oneida (N. Y.) Communists,- who have a branch establishment at Wallingford, Conn., and who are well known for their success in making Socialism pecuniarily a success, are getting ambitious of making converts, we judge. At any rate, their head man, John H. Noyes, the life and brains of this peculiar organization— asBrigham Youn^ is of Mormonism—has written a book giving a history of Communism in the United States, and setting forth with greater plainness than ever before the belief of himself and his followers. The foundation stone of the community is tho\Apostolic idea of having "all things in common," including persons as well as property, and this idea is thoroughly carried out at Oneida, while we are informed that the Connecticut establishment is one with the other "socially and financially." No such distinctions as husbands and wife, parents and children are recognized by the community, but all are considered as belonging to one another. Among the articles of the creed that legitimately follow from this fundamental belief are that shame is sin holiness cooies first and then free love the abolition of marriage and the substitution of communism is a Christian duty, and so on.

This statement of the belief of the Oneida Communists is no new thing, and is only worthy of notice from the broadness and frankness yith which it is now stated by the leader of the community, and the evident attempt to attract the attention of the public by means of his book. It is also worthy of note that the people professing and practising these principles—as much viler and more demoralizing than Mormonism as can be imagined—are subject to no molestation, either legal or unlawful, though closely surrounded by neighbors to whom their belief is only less abhorrent than their actions. If any great assignation establishment like this had been set up without the pretence of religious belief to buoy it up, it would have Been disposed of pretty quickly. But Americans are very lenient to all forms and phases of rell gious belief, and there is no denying that it is a much better way than to imitate the religious prosecutions of the Old World and the sixteenth century. But it is equally evident that this tolerance permits some strange anomalies, both of government and social life and it is hardly to be wondered at that foreigners, who cannot be expected to know us thoroughly, sometimes get a wrong impression of us when told that we permit the Oneida Communists to flourish in the heart of New York and allow the Mormons out in Utah to have as many wives as they want, though everybody else is strictly limited to one.

THE indications are that the new Census Bill will be defeated in the Senate. Ex-Superintendent Kennedy is doing his best to have the ninth census taken on the same plan as that of 1S60, which he supervised. Under the law of I860, the enumeration was taken by the United States District Marshals by General Garfield's plan it is to be taken under the immediate direction of Congressional District Superintendents. The opposition of the Senate is said to arise from the fact, that what little patronage there mav be for distribution under the law, passes from their control to the Representatives. There should be better reason than this for the defeat of a carefully prepared bill, jerfected by a special committee, whose abors have been long and arduous,— Ind. Journal.

THE SUGAR MAKERS.

Prospects and Profits of Sugar Mating in Louisiana. Correspondence oif the Tf. Evening Post.l

At a recent trip to the sugar plantations of Louisiana, I spent two weeks on the Bay&u, Teehe, Saileand Grand Lake, in St. Marys' Parish, and Bayou Black, in Terrebonne Parish. These parishes are the best sugar districts in the United States, and without donbt the garden of Louisiana. To me, it appealed almost like another country. The climate is most delightful—very much like September at theNorth. The nights arecool, but there is no fro?t as yet. The days are quite warm from 9 o'clock in the morning to 3 o'clock in the afternoon so much so that I invariable choose the shade. The vegetable arid flower gardens look much like those at the North in June, and they are now planting such seeds as peas, reddish, lettuce, onions, and others which are not injured by a little frost. To see nearly all kinds of flowers in bloern, vegetation green and orange trees loaded with fruit, was almost calculated to make me inquire if tills really was in the Unit3d States.

I was fortunate in being here in ths sugar making seaion. That was what most desired to see, and it was very interesting. It well repaid me for the expense of my trip. I was not disappointed in the profitableness of the sugar crop, for without doubt it is the most remunerative agricultural pursuit in the United States, and probably in the world. The profit is nearly or quite double that of cotton per acre at the present price of each, and they were so considered by the growers of each before the war. There is this peculiarity between,the two crops: where cane does best cotton is nearly a failure. As I was up the Teche (northwest) it became less desirable for sugar and more desirable for cotton and which.I got to New Iberia, and for twenty miles further north, the plantations were about equally divided between sugar and cotton—some growing both on the same plantation. As the one runs out the other runs in but where both aie growing it is realy not as good for cither.

For sugar I would prefer land south of New Iberia and New Orleans but for cotton the latitude of Nachez and the Red River country, west of the Mississippi, is best. The most southren parishes of Louisiana are best for sugar. I should pre fer its culture to cotton. It'is a more pleasant business, more profitable and a much, surer crop. It is as su re, or more so than corn in Ohio. The Teche country Is very healthy throughout the year. The greatest drawback is the amount of capital required to secure a good plantation in running order, or to buy one that lias been idle since the war, and restock and work it up to a five hund ed liogf head place.

The places generally run from 1,900 to 2,200 acres, but-some are much larger. About one-third or one-half is, or can be cultivated. Probably not one plantation in three has done anything since the war and not one in six of the old owners has been able to do anything since yet they will not divide up their places. It is all or nothing with them, The fences were all gone for 75 or 100 miles where I was, and on a majority of places either the house, cabins or mill had been burned, and in some cases all of them. These places now rate from $30,000 to $75,000, according to size, situation and what may remain on them. They are cheap enough but itwill cost from $50,000 to $80,000 and three year's time to work them up so as to produce four to six hundred hogshead of sugar, and seven hundred to one thousand barrels of molasses. It will cost from $100,000 to $150,000 be fore any return is made, but after that ii pays finely—from twenty to forty per cent With sugar at ten cents a gallon, a crop of five hundred hogsheads, and the molasses belonging to it, will bring from $75,000 to $80,000, at a cost of about $25,000 current expenses to run the plantation, The present cost to grow and make sugar, after all things are in order, is about 3 to 3J cents a pound. The land produces from one to two and half hogsheads an acre, the average being about one and a half hogsheads an acre, when properly cared for.'*' ,' 77^1'

Presents to Ministers.

"Don't you wish you were a minister's wife," said a gentleman to a lady in commenting upon the general remberance of mintsters' families at this gift season of the year, "so that you might have anew dress given you?" she promptly replied "It would take away half the pleasure of having it if I could not buy it myself."

It is pleasant to have gifts, when they come from friends, and come as gifts, but nothing can be more galling to a proud, sensitive spirit than to receive in the shape of presents what one feels that he has earned and should receive in the form of wages. And yet this is the very position in which many, perhaps a majority of country parishes, condemn ministers and their wives to pass their existence. The salary is placed at the lowest living point, and sometimes even below that and the perish, usually in the winter season, take it upon themselves to send in as gifts whatever their fancy may dictate, or it may be evident is needed in the parsonage economy. The recipients of the gifts take them thankfully, for they absolutely need them, and food and drink and clothes must be had, and a certain amount of respectability maintained,

}at

whatever

cost of pride or inclination, Meanwhile the party of the other part congratulate themselves over a generous action done, when, in reality, they have only paid a debt, and paid it in the most ungracious manner possible.

All this is on the supposition, mind yoh, that the minister has been "a good boy" during the year has preached well, done the requisite amount of visiting, and made himself generally popular and useful— and his wife ditto. If the minister and his family have not succeeded in making themselves agreeable, there is none of this tendering of gifts at the holidays or any other season and then the salary, meagre as it is, is alone to be depended on.

Why' do ministers put up with this state of things? Why do churches, composed generally and mainly of very good and sensible folks, condemn their pastor to a life of so much uncertainty and humility? A minister can tell what he wants as well as other people, and can best get what he~likes if he is supplied with the ready money and certainly if he is worthy of the name, he earns a salary, and a generous one, which should be paid him in money, and not in the produce or wares of which some parishioner may happen to have a surplus. And a minister's wife ought to haye, whether she earns it or not, the privilege of buying her own clothes—Of exercising the prerogative dear to every woman's heart, of deciding what the color of a new gown shall be seeing how it compares with other pieces in the shops, and cheapening the price.

Makefile ministers and their-families as many gifts of friendship as the heart may prompt but do let us have an end of these donations that are so plainly intended to eke out an apologize for a stingy salary.—Springfield Republican.

BABES IN THE WOODS.

The Wandering- Wjnockie Children— .^sui Fate of 1he Innocents.

Our leaders have from time to time been informed of the ^eaich for the lost children of Jo.eph Wyhle, of. Wynockie a district of Pomp en, Passaic county, New Jersey. It will be remembei ed that three'liftlesons of Wyhle,who is a respectable laboring man, left their home, at the base of Wynockie moun ains, in the afternoon of New Year's day to go "nutting.' They were aged respectively ten, seven and five years. They left home at four o'clock in the afternoon and after that hour nothing was ever seen or heard ol them till on Tuesday, when their bodies were found lying together in the woods, oil the south side of the mountaius about eleven miles from iheir homes.

After New-year's night had passed and the children had not returned to their dis traded pai ents, who now began to fear the worst, the alarm was given and the whole neighborhood turned out to join in the sea/ch for the lost one*. A fearful rain stofm had set in during the night and continued during part of the next day, adding to the torments of mind which the parents and their friends endured in reliecting upon the sufferings which the-little wanderers must have been undergoing. All that week the search was kept up, many of the neighbors nobly denying themselves sufficient rest and food in their humane zeal to find the hiding-place of the babes in the woods. The hope was still cherished that they might be alive—that some inhabitant of the mountain-side might have chanced across their path and given them shelter until they could be reclaimed by their parents.

No word of any such fortune was received, however, and day by day tiie last hopes of finding the children alive were given up. On Tuesday last the worst fears of all were realized. One of the searching parties came upon the bodies of the hopeless innocenis. lying side by side, in such a position as left no rooln to doubt that they had wandered on and on for miles in their bewildered way until cold and exposure, exhaustion and starvation had brought them relief in death. The spot where they were found was quiie thickly covered with timber, and it is thought from the scattered nut shells near by that the children subsisted for several days on the nuts they had gathered previous to being benighted. The bodies were removed to the home of their heart-broken parents, for whom the en.ire community evince the deepest sympathy.—Nemirk (N. J.( Advertiser.

From the Baltimore American,! On Saturday last, a clock- repair was summoned St? visit iJbe dwelling of Mr Romoser, I#! York! stree*. for ("he purpose of dw£oring a clock, and while ... the mechanic was at work upon thedock 8torckecp®r, c°nt«n*much a ix I a few moments it became apparent that the house would be quickly rendered untenable, and a removal of the furniture was proceeded with. The clockrmcndcr permitted persons to emove the articles from the rodiri, with the exception of a table, upon which was lying the dis.-ccted time-piece. A party .yvas in the ac\ of removing ihe table, when the .mechanic said: "J-ist let me alone don't yon fee how I am at work?" "But," said the remover of furnitnre, the houfe i* burning down, and if yo.i stay here you will be burned up.''

I did iiot set the house afire /hen why doyou want to take away the tableV" Such an answer as this from a man who regarded the btu ning down of a house as a secondary matter to the repairing of a clock somewhat staggered the parly, who was anxious to remove the table, and he quilled the room, whilethe tenacious mechanic proceeded to the work before him. When the firemen arrived it became necessary to run the hose through the room where the German was, and although the greatest confusion posssble was created, the man continued working at the clock. As the fire overhead progressed, the work-room became filled with smoke, while hundreds of jets of cold water found their way into every section of the chamber "Nothing, however, would deter the man from-fin-ishing his job, and finish it he did, and placing the clock under-Jiis arm, he descended the stairs and searched among the crowd of persons present for Mr.
