Corni-Tho Wheat Crop.
Wagons loaded with corn, na still
rolling through our streets. Thie
amount of coru shipped to this place.
s'aco the first of February, to supply
te delceienoy of last year's crop in thec
District, can hardly fall sl~iort of 25,.
000 bushels. The most of this has,
probatbly, been paid for. This vast
sum of money has been sont out of the
Di~tr iot, for the protit which remains
in the mierchiant's hands is not much.
1t. is not itissiing the fact far, we
tintk, to say that this year there is un.
tder cultivattion in Fairfield District
two acres of cotton for cetoty one ot
corn. Pity it was no the reverse.
TJ'ho wheat crop is soon to be gath
cred, anti it is :. splendid one to all
appelrantce. B~ut in the absence 01
entough corn to "run" the farms until
the novt corn harvest, the wheat foi
bread will but a moderate crop, as th<
stock Will very likely be fed upon tI
greater part of it.
Save the Pennics,
Economy now is mtore thme order o

uires of house-hold ecornmy is thait oi
saving',lighit. Kerosine oil is perhmap:
thc best illuminatinig articlo now ii
market, as well as thie chteapest. Jui
it is renuderod still more cheap by r
recent discovery which, as will be sect
firomt the extrmet below taken from thi<
Charleston News has in that city beer
tested satisfactorily.
As eonomy in smnall matters fro.
qntuntl vtta icet ar w sa.i.- :., he.
i. ole nsIuets, we publidh the follow'
ing infyrination which may be of use
to careful housekeepers. Sinoe the
discovery of the oil fields of Pennsyl
van ia, an(d Virginia, korosino has
gradially flr e)II1lod the use of glib,
antI there are few fanilies who do
pond solely on the latter for a light.
Tile cheapness of the kerosene, and
the clear light furnished lby it, at onco
recoumonds it to tle public ; but
sonic inventive genius has recently dis.
covered that salt is ia great improve
mont, and by filling a lanp half full of
conmon salt, a clearor flame, and a
saving of twenty-fivo per cent in oil is
obtained. This lias been tested by
some parties who concur in the state
ient of the inventor, and use of salt.
The experiment is simiple, and the ma
teri-l is within reach of every one, wo
shiall soon expect to see a revolution in
the oil businese.

The General Order, No. 32, which
appeared in the Nas of last Th'urs

It is true, the Itaiicaiil Is the holdest party
thlat hals been in power since tho days of
Cr'omiwoll. It i~s tue, this party has recort
ed to ile most 0Xtremie lnoasuiros to efl'ct
uts end11, but wheniever the Constitution has
steood in its way 1xith language distinct and
emphdatic, absolute and1( fnal, the party has
paulsed and set vigorously teo work
remove tile obstaclo; it may haivo- been by
compulsion, but nevertheless the party jus
lilies its acts by having the legal form
wr'littenl and stamped upon tile record. Thle
ipse dixig of Congress, "that a state of war
still okists in the Sothern States8," is the
groundl up~on wvihi Is based the miilitary
r-ulo in the Distriots.
Tho Southern States, in convention called
by the Provisional Governors, eumancipated
their slaives, and ratified tile Constituitional
amendments, abolishing slavery throughout
all thle territory of the Union, and thereby
gave the necessary vote to engraft. those
amlelnenlt utpon the Constitution, and b~y
which the slaves in the "tates of Maryland
Kentucy and Delaware were manumitted.
That act passed thrnough all the channels of'
tile eiroumlecutory oficees, has all the im
press of red tape upon it, and is envelopod
with all the ceremlony of legal form.
Only under tile Constitution, can confis.
cation for treason be considered. .In Arti
cle III. and Sction 8, of the Constitution,
lie language is clear and emphatic, abso
11ut0 and final, "Coogress shall have power
to doclare the punishmetnt of treason, but
no attaindler of treason-shall work corrup
tion of blood oif forfeiture, except during
the life of the0 person attainted." Only the
life timte estate can he sold, and so soon as
the person conr'icted of treason (dies, then
limeditely uponl is (heath, the property
sold, is restored to his legal heirs What
has Chief Juit ice Chauso done in thi, matter
Judge Underwood, of Virginia, ordered
the confiscation of' the estate of a VI.'ginian
j'for treason. - The cage waisearried up to tihe
IUnited States Court of ErrOrs, and, Chief
Just ice Chlase, one of the mcetianluentisl lea
(hers of t he Radical par ty, sent thme ease back
upon the ground, hut. "That the sale of the
properly was absolute,'' which could not, be
done, as only Ihe lilfe'estato coubtl be connaua
tlld. 24h. "That there 00ould be no cohnsioa.
tion for treason until the party had, been
indot d b agrand jurtiy, anid convicted by a
cor po opent jui'ldlen."
What does Attornaoy-General Stanborry
sav ? "The nrovisian in the Coanstitu. of
tilo United Stales does not declare what
shall be tihe punishment on conviction of
treason. Thai Is loft for Congress, with
tie limitation that coiruption of blood
shaill not follow, as a consequence, nor any
forfeiture except during the life of the par
ty. Congress ii tihe exercise o' its power
has limited riohm punishment, as tle conse
lueoce of conviction, tie penalty of leath
or imprisoniment, and tie manuaimission of
-slaves owned by tle party, aid to time div
qim %lification from holding any officti under
tlo United States "
Winit does the Constitution say as to parl
dlonis ? Inl language equally as plain and
emiplatie, it declares, "The President siall
have ihe power to grant reprieves and par
donis for all olfenss againat the United
States, except in cases o' imnpeaiehinent."
President Lincoln issued a pardon to
nearly overy one who had been engaged inI
Imostilities against lime United States in his
proolama ion. After tie surrender of Cen.
Lee, l'resident Johnston issued, an anmnesty
proclamation, granting pardon to all those
who had engaged in tie late rebellion, so
soon as they would take the oath o' allo
giaice. excepting fourteen classes of per
sons therein set fonrth. So each and every
person who did not cono under the four
lein less, and who took the oath of allk
giance was thereby pardoned. Many spe
vial pardons, to persons who cafme within
the fourteen classes, have been granted,
amid with, parlon, all pimnshnent for past
offences, is at an end, so far as confiscation
is concerned.
Mr. Edit or, these are faets, and any person
can draw his own inferenco. I will venture
to assert. and believe it is beyond contra.
