The earth was white with frost, and ico could bc seen in every pool of water. This is unfortunate, as all our fruit trees were in full bloom. Wo hoar conflict ing statements as to its effect on the peaches, in some seotions all being reported killed, while-in others tho citizens say enough are still left. Wo hope there is more smoke than fire in those gloomy reports. The cold snap was succeeded by a heavy fall of rain, which flooded the h>w grounds, and stopped for a while the operations of the fanner. Tho weather is now fine, a genial spring seem courting tho vegetation from mother earth. Wo trust ugly winter, will hereafter keep within bis legitimate bounds, and no loDgcr rob lovely spring of ber lawful empire.

The Cattle Plague In tho March number of tho "American Stock Journal" is a long and valuable article by Prof. John Gam gee on thc Lung Plague in Cattle. Of all tho cattle diseases plcuro pnoumonia is in tho long run the most des tructive, because thc most insidious and the least likely to rouse a people to united action for its effectual suppression. To ignore its presence is, however, to insure that the cattle mortality of America liko that of England, will bo at least doubled in a few years' time. Rational means energetic action, and earnest co-operations between the different States and tho central government may, with a moderato expenditure now, save many millions annually in tho not distant future. There aro nt present no proper restrictions On tho salo of infected stock, and in another year or two, unless somo definite and imme diato action be taken, the disease is likely to find its woy in so many parts of tho country thai its eradication will bo almost a mnttor of impossibility. Tho Editors of tho "Journal" hoing exten sive breeders and doalcrs in cattle, have prin ted an edition of ovor half a million copies for gratuitous distribution among our Farm ors. Wo hopo all will avail themselves of this genovous offer and Bend for a copy. Addross N. P. BOYER & Co., Publishers, Pnrkesburg, Chester Co., Pa.

His Honor Judgo Orr, presided with that graoo and ability, whioh ho has ever oxhibitod in tho many high and honorable positions, ho hos fillod during tho many years of his pulie life. In tho State Legislature, iii Congress, in the G ?bernational Chair, and on the D Mich he lias alway? displayed that condition and po litical foresight, wbioh mark the true gentle man oud scholar. Often honored, often ma ligned aud charged with motives of personal aggrandizement, ho hus ucver been trans ported by tho ono nor deterred by tho other, but has consistently moved forward in the path, which lends to the goal of truth and politisai safety. Probably no publio man has suffered so many ups and downs as this distinguished gentleman, but wo trust the people are now convinced of tho wisdom and siaoerity of his past lifo, aud that ho maybe permitted in tho futuro to wear his laurels in pcaoo and security. lu his person, tho wisdom, virtue, aud ability of tho Bench of tho State are perpetuated aud brightened. Long may ho live to proaidc over the Courts of the Eighth Circuit. A good many of tho Bur from the adjoin ing Counties wero present, among whom we noted, General MoQowan, Gov. Perry, Geu. Kasir, Geu.

The juries adopted the principle of scaling old debts in nearly every instance. We know this course to bo equitable, und believe it tobe legal. At any rate, wo trust it will bo adhered to.

For these high purposes was it designed by the Creator, but the wicked heart of man has per verted it to an instrument of Btrifc and confu sion. It -'au lie, and cheat, and defraud, and slander and in its impotent rage dare even to blaspheme the name of the great God. It seems to possess both a good and ovil spirit, and when wc consider that it is but thc mouthpiece of the heart, unveiling its thoughts and workings, we can realize th* necessity of curbing it and of training thc heart to lessons of charity and love. Then irhon we speak, our utterances will bc as oi in tho troubled waters, working peace when itrifo exists.

By tho last section of tho Bill, thc amount to bo nnscssod and collected is limited to ono million of dollars. The amount appropriated to tho various depart ments by tho Bill, is only eight hundred and twenty-three thousand and forty-two dollars and thirty-eight cents, (?828,012.38,) dis tributed as follows : For salaries of tho various officers and expenses of thc Stnto Government, - - $120,300 00 Excoutivo Department . 83,460 00 Judioiary Department, - 8,000 00 Ordinary Civil Expenses, - 209,500 00 State Polioo, - - 20,000 00 Educational Department, - 76,800 00 Interest on Pubpllo Debt, - 329,492 38 Military Expouses, - - 20,000 00 Commission to Codify tho Laws of State, . . 10,600 00 Aggrogato, - - - $823,042 88 The 10th section provides that tho taxes assessed and payable under this Act, ?hall be paid in the followiug kind of funds, viz : The Bills lleoeivable of the Stnto, United States Currency, National Bank Notos, Gold sud Silver coiu, aud in no other funds. As the Bill may bc amended in many parts, we forbear publishing it iu full at present, but give the abovo as au indication of what may be expected. It is better than i:ost of us intioipntsd. - - ?- - Suspension of the Writ of Habeas Corpus lu tho House of Kopresontatives on Wed nesday "Webb introduced a joint resolution to suspend the writ of habeas corpus iu the Counties of Laurens, Newberry, Edgoficld ind Abbeville." This resolution was roforrcd lo the Judioiary Committee. Webb, who introduced tho resolution, is, we believe, a nativo of Connecticut, drifted to mis Stato in 1806, and is now one of tho del agates from Georgetown, Why Webb should be particularly anxious to suspend the writ of af habeas corpus is not known ; but it may bc supposed that ho has caught tho contagion af tho same old scare whioh for thc last niue months has disturbed thc tranquility of his Excellency tho Govornor and the majority of the General Assembly. The whole, concern is surely afraid. Our legislators cannot, the t most of them, turn pale; but they quake, and i ?hiver, aud tremble. A rumor comes of tho i {Host of a K. K. K. in Abboville, and there IB a nail for tho loyal Militia. An old woman moones in Edgelield, and there is a shout for two thousand rifles of the most improved pat fctrn-all warranted trooly loil and to kill aoue but rebels. A white representativo has delirium tremens in Newberry and lo ! there is a howl for the suspension of the writ of to/.yfrsjtoy ?Sjiyid for a proclamation of roar .ial luw^ftkuyfcienco seems to make cowards )f thc wnoTebatch. They have no confidence n themselves, no confidence in the Governor, io confidence in thc Loyal Leagues. They rroan and will not bc comforted. )%If, however, the members of the General \sscmbly believe that a suspension of tho rrit of habeas corpus will intimidate the ihite people of Edgefield, Newberry, Abbe rille and Laurens, they are very much mista ten. Thc people there arc intelligent, indus nous and law-abiding This is the truth, md these people will not allow themselves to ac bullied by any Legislature, whether white, alack or mixed. Indeed, they can fall back m Section 17 of tho Declaration of Bights u the State Constitution, which says: "The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shall lot bc suspended, except when in case of in mrrcction, rebellion or invasion tho publio safety may require it." The members of tho Legislature will hardly venture to say that there is "insurrection" or "rebellion" in this State, or that wc are on the eve of any "inva sion" but that of travelers, pleasure seekers and substantial business men. And yet who knows? To declare that scvoral counties of tho State wero invaded by thc K. K. K., that the people were in rebellion and insurrection, would bc no worse than the untruths whioh have olrcady been published, and which it is a part of the ltudical creed to gulp down withouo doubt or hesitation. [GharUtton Nexos SiW The Edgefield prisoners-John II. Key, Henry Key, Sr., II. II. Kcrnaghan, Pleasent Shnrpton and Wm. E.
