A resolution passed the Illinois Houso of Repre? sentatives on Tuesday, declaring deserters and skedaddles from tho draft disfranchised. A hog was butchered, two or threo days ago, in Jackson, Hiss., which weighed.net, seven hundred and seventy-eit-ht pounds. * Plants of Chinese tea grown in North Carolina are now fivo feet in height, and iu full bloom. Five pounds of " Bohe.;," -made in 1865, from tho leaves, were considered equal to tho best imported. Ibo United States Engineers' Department re? commends the appropriation of $160,008 for.per? manent defences at tho western entrance ut Narra? gansett Bay. A Paria lotter says the Empress EUGENIE grows visibly older. She fears growing too stout, and during the stay of the Court at Compeigne sho tired out all the lady guo&ts by the long excur? sions which she made on foot through the forests. Two members of the Congressional Judiciary Committee are reported to have said, that JOH? II. SUERAIT will be brought before that Committee as one of the witnesses to the Presideut's complicity in the LINCOLN assassination. Omaha papers state there is little doubt that all Indians on the piains are hostile, and unless tho promptest and most decisive measures aro taken to provent it, there will be a general Indian war next summer. Mrs. ROXANA DWIGHT waa lately fined ono cont and costs, at Providence, for striking ELLEN C?E . TIS in the face, because she put her anns around Mr. DWIGHT'S neck, and asked him to go to thc theatre with her. A despatch from Montgomery, dated January 24, aaytrthe Judiciary Committee, of the Houso will submit a bill for tho removal of the State capital to Mobile. Tho Committee stood eleven for and two against tho measure. It is said thai th? University Press, of Cam? bridge, Massachusetts has a press, mads in Pari3, tho peculiarity of which is that the sheets go in at one end and come out at the other, printed on both sides, The Atlantic and Young Folks ?.re printed on it. A project! has been started to tunnel beneath the St. Clair River at Detroit, and lay a single track sixty feet beneath the surface of the water, no as to enable the cars of the Great Western and Mich? igan Central roads to make actual connections. It is estimated that the cost will be ?2,500,C03, and the time required will be from two to tlneo years. The Mobile Register says that under the process of levelling tho fortifications about Mobilo, which has been going on for the last oight or ten months, the inner une of entrenchments, which passed through the outskirts of the city, haa pretty well disappeared, tho embankments haring* been shov? elled down and the ditches filled up. Several of the lar go dry goods establishments in New York have o stablish od a detective force, which ia employed to look ai tor the,clerks. The detec? tives visit all sorts of places, and if a derk is Been where he should not bs, a quiet dismissal and "no reasons given" follows at once. In the Kentucky Senate, last week, Mr. BIGGES offered a resolution that the reiusal of Congress to sanction payment to loyal men of com? pensation for slaves who had enlisted, ia a "breach of plighted faith, and that it warrants the South? ern States in repudiating the national debt The Zanesv?le Times says that, in a case of poison from laudanum in that place, the patient was saved when apparently near death, and un? able to swallow, by injecting atropina, a prepara? tion of belladonna, ihre ugh an incision, in the akin. The antidote was further adniinisteied through the mouth irhen tho patient got able to swallow. 4' A Chicago paper gives credit to the gossip that BEIGNOLX on the stage has a perfect horror of the female artists. In all scenes requiring a contact of hands, or'the platonic embraces common to operatic culminations, the great tenor exclaims to the astonished inamorata: ."Don't touch mel Don't touch me 1. You make me so nervous ! " The Post office Department has just ordered the payment of twenty thousand dollars to E. P. HABT & Co., of Memphis, for the transportation of mails from Memphis to Duvall's Blufi, from July, 1863. For two of these years the mail was army mail, carried within the army lines, and upon boats regularly chartered by the .Government, upon which it was specially ordered that mails should be . carried free. Tho New Orleans Investigating Committee cn - Saturday examined the Washington correspondent of the New York Times, who sent out General SHERIDAN'S garbled dispatch last summer. He stated that the President gave him an order on the War Department for General. SHERIDAN'S dis? patch, and that he got it from one, of the clerks there, thus oharging upon a clerk the sesponsib?i ty of garbling it. The Ne? Haven Register says that "about 20 Southern negroes passed through here, on then way to Massachusetts, where places have hoon eo * cured for them by Mr. E. A. NEWALL, the agent of the Freedman's Bureau, At Springfield. Had they had tho Tuisfortuno to be poor whites they would have starved in Massachusetts before they would have been found plaoes." The Houston (Texas) Telegraph says that tho Eureka H?ls are now turning out fino sheetings 'and drills, and will, in a few days, put in the mar? ket their various goods, both cotton aol wool, and test the question of profit and JOBS. Tue Houston City Min? will be erected this spring. Much of the material is already on the ground. Tho-ma? chinery is said to be very fine, costing some eighty thousand dollars. A celebrated wholesale merchant in London . (Eng.) has presented to the proprietors of the< Telegraph a printing press which cost $25,000, as a token of appreciation. In doing BO, he accom? panied the gift by a letter which said : "In your?! paper, by judicious advertising, I first built the foundation of a fortune-and in your paper, by judicious advertising, I have amassed the fortune which enables me io offer this testimony of regard and good will." GARIBALDI, at the request of an American friend, .has written a letter giving his opinion on the af? fairs bf tho United States. He applauds the elec? tion of rcblorod deputies to the Massachusetts Le? gislature, audSearnestly expresses his hope for the preservation lind future harmony of tho Union, and urges the President to come to terms with Congress. [Mr- GARIBALDI ls a much botter judge of Bologna sausages and tobacco, than of 'Ameri? can institutions; and he had better tako Crispin's advice, and stick to his last-military adventure.] Over $2,000,000 in mutilated and worn out notes have been retnrnad to the Tror.sury, where they are placed in an inunenso.revoking iron, cylinder, usefully locked, through which a heated stream of acids passes, so that tho ink is eompletely re? moved, and a mass of pulp remains. This is bleaehedjwid manufactured into envolopes for the use of tho Treasury Department. Large amounts of mutilated and worn out fractional currency are thus decomposed, and reconstructed into envel? opes. Thoro are large importations of Canary birds in the German steamers. The birds come principal? ly from tho Hartz mountaina in Hanover. The number of them that arrived hore in the past year is estimated by- large importers at from 15 OOO to 20,000, worth S6O.0C0 or $80,000.' Thc "mortality among the birds on tho passage is more than twenty-five per cent. In this country they aro bred to asome extent. One man in Philadelphia bat year raisod three hundred, and anothor in Buffalo one hundred a ad fifty. Several persons in New York, New Jersey, Sec., ? raise smaller num? bers. The Journal de VAgriculture says tho statistics of Franco for I860 are not very brilliant. .The com crop is below the average. Wino will ho abund? ant, but of very ordinary quality. Potatoes aro rotting in the storehouses; in many instances fears are entertained of not being ablo to preservo sufficient foi: the next planting. Olives will fur? nish a better ?rop'than was expected. Tobacco is effected with the rot. Walnuts and chestnuts have produced the ordinary quantity. The disasters of tho silkworm culture add darker shadows to the picture. The cider fruits offer a valuable re? source, and several special crops, such as hemp and colza, have been good. There is, therefore, some compensation for the evil, and above all, hopes for the future.

WEDNESDAY HORNING, JANUARY 30,18G7. ON THE FENCE. The "little Villain" of the New York Times ap? pears to be ambitious of gaining the title of Trim? mer. His political shiftinga are of auch frequent recurronce, that it ia not easy to keep pace with them. On the floor of the House, recently, speak? ing on STEVENS' Reconstruction Bill, ho said that the will of the people [he means the Radicals of the North, we suppose,] of late had settled several questions. Ono of them is that they have ex? pressed their dissatisfactibu with the President's plan of reconstruction; that ho himself (Mr. RAY? MOND) had- eoncurtcd in the President's opinion, and still thought that if that course had been taken in the early period of tho disunion, it would have conduced largely to heal the body politic. Bt?t that policy would not answer now. It is clear, also, he said, that the people had pro? nounced the Constitutional Amendment of last session as tho wisest and best basis of adjustment of which tho question was susceptible; and that thc ;vople had docided, furthermore, that they would uer trust this whole subject to Congress than io thc- Executive. After /.dmittnig this much, mildly admonishing hi? hearns, 'as it were, that he was not going io oppose anything very violently, that ho waa very repentant 6f former horesy, and henceforth meant to vote with the majority,-*he goes ou to say that the governments now in operation in the South? ern States were de facto governments, absolutely necessary for the protection of society there, cud better than a state of anarchy. Ho submitted that the establishment of martial law would give no ad? ditional protection to lifo and property in tho ?outh, because it would depend for its execution ou the President, and if ho did not oxacutc tin Freedmen's Bureau Bill or the Civil Rights Bill, how could they calculate on his executing martial kw? Be/erring to the provisions of tho bill, which declarea that any abrogation or chango of tba conditions imposed would cause a forfeiture of representation in Congress, ho expressed his con? viction that if those States were in tho Union, undor'and by rirtue of tho Constitution, Congross would have no shadow of right for forfeiting their i oyresontation; and if the Constitution were bind? ing orfCongi eBs it could not enact into a law the bill now proposed,, though tuero are those who ihink thifc Congress can act without reference to the Constitution on the subject. The Supreme Court, however, bad declared that the Constitution must be the supreme law for the whole people, for ruters and the people/uncior all circumstances. Mr. RATJ?OND said that he was not prepared to side with those who think Con? gress is not bound by tho Constitution, m r could he agree with the Supremo Court. H'.' Stinkscir? cumstances should alter cases. Lu othjr words, Mr. RAYMOND, although bound hand and foot, self [ delivered to his Radical master?, still throws out j mild protests; whether to save his conscience, or j to make a feint show, of cona is tener, it were dim- ( I cult to say. . Ono objection, he. stated, that he had to the Con? stitutional Amendment submitted last session, was that - it did not embody all the guarantees which he thought tho action required; that the Constitution should distinctly state, that if here? after any State should seoode, such State should thereby forfeit all share of power in tho govern? ment of the Repu bbc. His objection to Mr. STEVENS' Bill was tha+ it merely proposed a law; there is nothing stable in it. The Supreme Court might annul it; or anothor Congress might repeal it. * Mr. STEVENS' BUL he said, would simply implant in every Southern State a revolutionary govern? ment. There would bo two govcrnmente in each State then contending for ascendency, and it was impossible that they should not como into col? lision. It might be said that the power of tho na? tion would bonsor ted to sustain the one now to be organized. But, who would wield that power? The President, uot Congress. Looking at this Bill from a practical point of view, it was plain that ita enactment would simply organizo a now conflict in every one of those Southern States. Ibis Bill, therefore, would perpetuate strife, and nothing more. Now, if this moans anything, it is a strong argu? ment for impeaching the President with a view to his removal. But this, we know, is not Mr. RAY KOSD'S intention, for the New York Times, of whioh he is the editor, has uniformly pronounced against it. A fow days ago, in its editorial columns, it published a commiuncation signed "Free Soil,'' which, it is understood, was written by Mr. RAY? MOND himself,-presenting a most powerful argu? ment against the impeachment of the President by Congress; pointing to ibo financial crisis already brought on-by the mere agitation of the subject, md showing that a terrible revolution and most sanguinary civil war must bo the inevitable consa. quencos of a further prosecution of the present course of the dominant party in Congress. Now, in view of all this, what can Mr. RAYMOND mean LU his speech, in thus apparently urging upon Congress the necessity of an impeachment ? Ho next proceeded to say 'ew words in favor 5f a "national" government. The consolidation if gu?ernment was going on all over, the world, so that it was not a soutimont peculiar to the imorican people. People wore hocoming in favor yt strong governments ovorywhere, as instanced in the recent history of Franco. Italy, Germany ?md the Brit?h North American Provinces; but jousolidation should- bo kept within limits ar.d pratchod with a jealous care." Aa wed talk of regu iating & tornado. Tho truth is, wo are oven KOW in the very midst of a revolution, and Mr. RAY? MOND'S feeble protests can be likened to nothing jotter than the attempt of tho celebrated Mrs. Partington, when, in' her simplicity, she essayed lo keep out the Atlantic with a pitchfork. Finally ie wound up this 'extraordinary, trimming Bpeoch >y saying he believed that if strife did come, thc lation would einorgo out of it stroug, hearty, freo, preserving its liberty aa a republic^ und enforcing ts roBpec't on ail the nations of the oarth by tho strength, the self-command, the adherence to aulv itantial -justice- and right which it would never ?case to exhibit. Now, to which party belongs Mi*. RAYMOND? Certainly not to tho Democratic, or the Jnhm-on Conservative, nor yet to tho Radicals. Hu would aiu, wo presume, establish au. eclecticism. Por lapa ho is ambitious of emulating HENKY CLAY'S .osition, and dosiros to go down to posterity as he great compromiser. But wc fear he is uot tho nan for the times, and, if known at all to the next reneration, it will be only as the ''Little Villain'' if the Times. DEMOCRACY. Professor BLACKIE, an old, loarnod and distin [uished Professor at Edinburgh, recently deliv red a throe-hrmrs' speech against "Democracy^ [be subjoct is ominontly apropos, now that Mr. SniGHT's.niillio- or moro of wou'd-be-democrats re knocking at the doors of Parliament. He re erred frequently to tba condition of the Govern? ment and people of tho United States aB furnish as a warning against the extension of Democratic iriuciples. Here, he aaid, there was nothing but 'Democratic dospotism and the rule of unreason," nd denounced that order of politics "which in imerica had produced-tho greatest of all social yrannies," and "protested against thc depraving ioctrines of American Democracy," and finally round up crying: "Save us from America !" Tho Vashington Congress, of course, carno in for a ull share of tho Professor's analvtic anddescrip ive still. Our Northern oxchanges are niuoh astonished it the Professor's temerity. They say hie romarks nay he very applicable to Great Britain, hut as to his country they aro vory wide of tho mark; that democracy in America is a success, etc. Yet hoi e re havo the singular paradox,- a domocratic coun ry, where democracy is thus declared a success, n which a "democrat" has almost become a term' ?f reproach. Who so poor todo him reverence! lhere was a timo when we ourselves were the rrongest advocate for democratic institutions, and aunted then- superiority over ever}- other kind of ;overnment; wo arc democrats still, but our faith TeatJy shaken. We are not euro that thoro is not ound sonso in Prof. BLACKIE'S words. _WANTS, WANTED.-'WANTED TO PURCHASE A small DwoUing House in tho Upper "Wards. Ap? ply to HENRY Wims.
