At tho upper end of town tho retail of this article is causing trou blo and losu to tho better class of citizens, and wholly demoralizing to tho thirsty and indo lent.

This supplement is expensive to us but we trust our readers will accept it as au evidence of oui determination to keep them fully informed of all important ovents. Tho message of President Hayes, with ono or two exceptions, will bo found satisfactory. His views, temperately expressed, upon suffrago in the South, will arrest attention. Ho makes assertions that will bo hard for him to prove, and, until tho proof is forthcoming, his candor will bo at a sad discount.

Wo have observed tho condition if our people and viewed with alarm thc Microiiohmonts upon their natural rights. While Hgt iculturu is thc chief sou rc of all weal th md therefore deserving of at least equal re cognition with ether vocation-', it is deprived d'us just rewards and oppressed by methods d'law.

The laws d'the nilli.m and of tho several States arc so ramed as to divert from our great industry bc rewards which arc the great incentivos to oil, and an earnest remonstrance against their injustice spurned. In view of these truths, we arc bound, in lefenco of our manhood, to assert our rights, iud wc therefore declaro our unalterable pur pose to emancipate agriculture (Vom ihn bun ions unjustly heaped upon it, and thc means ?y which wc shall seek to socoro thc desirable snds. 1. Wc shall strlvo earnestly, within and vit bout our order, to extend the. benefits of alucuUon, which shall comprise knowledge of millie a Hui rs und tho methods of solf-govcrn" neill. 2.
