In reply to a question, the President said he was decidedly opposed to any legislation which nad for its object an in?rense in the taxation of articles or m archa cdiac im? ported into the United States. It was useless to sat that the revenues of the country de? manded it, for "such waa not the- ewe, and it waa far better that many of the high duties . already imposed be stricken off, and not bur dan the country with still higher ones. He wOuld not- conceal the fact that he believed a small tariff waa necessary, but be would like a? nat the revenues of the country raised as fae aa. possible from internal taxes, and not from h ea vj duties upon imported goods. -The Baris correspondent of the Boston I Jan rn al apeaku cntbuaiaatically nf-the great caro taken of, and oonsideiation shown for, km in -Fiance.

The looma were lighted in resal style. Servants were in full costume, music waa provided, and a handsomer-dressed and a happier room of children were never seen in Paris. Bompa and games, American and Parisian, filled up the bonis. -Count Tolstoy, the Kassian Jliniatcr of j Public Instrnotion, has rocommenled to the Emperor Alexander the Second that all Bua aian Universities shall hereafter bo opened to women as well as men. A carious fact is that lt is* o ?lng to the Kirghese that women have been admitted to the study of medicine in Bus? ala. Several years ago. that roving tribe ap? plied to the St. Petersburg Government for Borne women familial with obstetrics, who might practice as accoucheuses in their com pa. The request was complied with, and so well were the Kirghese pleased with then: new mid? wives that they applied at St. Petersburg soon after for seme women who possessed a general knowledge of medicine and might practice as physicians among them. They were greatly -surprised when they heard tbat women were soft admitted to the. study of medicine in Bussia. The representatives of the tribe, dunn g their sojourn in St. Petersburg, met ft young lady who had been stadying obste? trics for some time, and who told them if j they would obtain permission from the Im? perial Government for her to attend the med? ical leo ores at the university, she would come to them at the close of her studies and become their physician. The Kirghese imme? diately acted upon the suggestion, art J by the aid of an influential general the yoong lady wan permitted to study medi?me at the Imperial University. -A horrible case of religious aberration recently occured in North Carolina. A "Mr. Ls: J. Jane bis wife, and four children named j Sarah, Polly, Eli and Nimrod, became insam by attendance ai a "protracted meeting:," an< began to seo visions. Sally claimed to be tb true God, the mother often saw Polly on th cross, and sometimes herself felt on ber heat the thorny crown, and felt in ber Bide the spear as ber Saviour bad done before ber. They bell meetings in tbe fields, and were seen one da; with tb?ir sleeves rolled up above their elbows knocsing dried ohestnot- ourrs about from om to another until their naked bands and anni were covered with blood. One cig-ht, whili Sally and ber m?tber discussed some paasagt ta Scripture, a dispute arose, occasioned b] both of them claiming to be God. Tbemotbej thought Sally waa the devil, and ordered hei sons snd husband to tie ber; tbey did so, anc thrust her, ber hands tied together, out of th? door. She attempted to get in; James" seizec s bit of board and tried to posh her away, while the mother, nuable to hold the dooi against her, ordere J Eli to shoot the devil; he fired, hitting her in the hand, and then, ai they described it afterwards, "tbe devi scrambled off the door-step." Soon she wat back again, putting har bloody banda in at I hole in the top of the door, when, Eli wai again ordered td shoot. Nimrod bidet the rifle with two ballets, gave it to EU, who said, "Father, most I shoot?" "I nothing else will do,"' said he, "yon must shoot," and said Eli, "this time I p'.umbec her right, between the eyes."*The bodj lay outside the door until daylight; then thc mother ordered the rest to carry the devil tc the log-heap and burn it. This they did, no? thing hf Lng left but a bit .pf the spine and skol], a rib or two, some portion of the abdo? men . and the outline of the swelling shoulders and hips in the ashes. The family were taken lo jail, and while they were all occupying the cage, a room grated with iron on the top and sides, the sons killed their mother by choking her. A trial resulted in their acquittal on the ground of insanity. . #. . ; CHARLESTON. -9 THURSDAY MORNING, MAI 27, I860. The Production of Cotton, The necessity of encouraging an increas? ed production of cotton in the South is now forcing itself upon the minds of those at the North who take a comprehensive view of the commercial situation. They see that the balance of trade, is cons ban tly against the United States, and that only the contin? ued exportation of United S ta tes bonds Ie pre? venting an outgo of specie which would embarrass the whole country, if it did not cause the long looked for crash, and they desire to stimulate the prodaotion of ootton, so that there may bsa staple to export and nuke payments with when the demand for bonds is at an end. The Sooth, on the other hand, is not disposed to strive for enor? mous'orops of ootton. A moderate crops with high prices, will .pay the planter, bet? ter than an excessive crop, with low prioes; and it ii moreover useless to ascribe the sm aline ss of the crops of the last foor sea? sons to any lack of energy and enterprise among the Southern people. The New York Shipping List, for instance, recom? mends "? thorough organization of labor "and the preservation of order?" suggest? ing that the South could hare dom mora than it has done. This ia an eld s tory ; bat it is M well to point out again the ciroum saawi waion wm Ban ft impossible, ror many yearn loc?me, to make crops as large as those of before, the war. The labor available for the cultivation of ootton has been reduced by the excessive mortality among the negroes, by the indis? position of many of the negroes to work at all, and by the general refusal of the col? ored women to work in the fields. The mortality of the negroes in Charleston is between twioe and three times as great as the mortality of the whites. In the city the freedmen have better opportunities of protecting themselves than in the country, where the mc r tali ty if at leas t as great as it is in the towna. In thia way the availa? ble labor is diminishing every day; nor is the gap filled by the children and boys growing ap, for in c consequence of the little care taken of them, the negro children die like sheep. Their parents hare no love for them, and in too many casca look apon their death aa the quickest means of being rid of a troublesome responsibility. The wo? men, far more unruly and hard to manage than the men, think work a disgrace, and will do nothing save perhaps in the picking season, when they may be tempted by the offer of money down to work for a few laya or weeks. It ia the usual calculation that one-third of oar labor baa been wholly loit,. and thia ia bone out by every fact that oories to our knowledge. Assuming, then, that the limit of produc? tion ia the quantity of ootton that can be picked in the season, there is no good grouad for believing that the cotton orop of this State, with our present labor system, can exceed 200,000 bales, or that of the whole South exceed 2,500,000 bales. And thia is with the understand? ing that every effort moat be made to inorcase the yield to the nore, and that fertilizers shall be largely used. Thia ia the policy in South Carolina, where the aim thia year ia not to inoreaae the area in cul? tivation, bat to increase the yield per acre. There is no disturbing element whatever in the State beyond the soheming and plotting of the Radical politicians-white and ool ored. We preserve order because it is to our interest to do BO, and now, according to the testimony of the New York Times, there is lesa orime and rlolenoe in this State, in proportion to ita population, than ia any Northern or New England State. When the miserable adventurers who now control our local affairs are killed by the popular ballot, we shall increase our pro? duction of colton to some extent, because the freedmen will then give up all* idea of living by stealing, and will backte down to their work. The negro members of the Leg? islature, and the various negro officials, will return to* their forges and barbershops make horse-shoes instead of laws, and shave o bins in place of splitting hairs. The thousands who now hope and 4)ray far "jes one leetle oms" will find in the hoe their most effectual weapon, and draw their 1 per diem from the plough. This will ewell the prodaotion of cottoa in some degree; but one thing only can make large crops of all kinds certain, and that is white immi? gration. If the North is in earnest and does feel BOW dependent it ia on the South for an ex? portable product with whioh to pay its debts, it mast encourage white immigra? tion. We want no Asistios, no mongrels of any kind. We want'white men who will strengthen the oonntry politically and so? cially, besides enlarging oar producing ca? pacity. Oar Northern contemporaries have now an opportunity of showing whether they are sincere. If they want large crops they must send us immigrants. If they ' fear the political influence of the white man we oan wait awhile and oontinue to make small crops-which will pay us very well, however unsatisfactory they may be to the merchants and spinners of the North. Greeter on tnt Futur? ot tnt Southern Radicals. Horace Greeley has written to the editor of the Wheeling Intelligencer a letter, in which he gives the Southern Radicals gen? erally a bit* of advice, full of the strong oom mon sense characteristic of the man. The letter is as follows : NEW YORK TRIBUNE, I Nzw YOEE, November 18,1868. | My Dear Sir-I have yours of the 16th. Its leading positions have long been understood and appreciated in this quarter. Now hear me. Every year one thousand of your rebels die, and one thousand (or more) of their sons be? come of age. You can't disfranchise THEM. Yon have now five thousand majority. Six years at furthest will convert this , into a rebel ma? jority of one thousand. Then tire rebels will be enfranchised in spite of yon, and the bl a cl < will * left under foot-and you tinder-estimate these at two thousand. Go your own way, and eee if the rebels don'i have yon under foot in less than six years. 1 speak from a wide. experience when I tell you that your house is built on the sand. It cannot stand. Every year will see the passions of the war cool and the demand for amnesty strengthened. N'oie yon can am? nesty the rebels. Soon the question will be, Shall they amnesty you ? Look at Kentucky and Maryland, and read your certain fate in theirs. Yours, HORACE GREELEY. TEE WAT rr WOBES.-The New York Journal of Commerce, in giving particulars of the enor? mous imports of the. lM? font months at that port, shows that of the $119,517,750 to which they amount, only $88,121, Ml were of dry goods; that ia, contrary to general belief, dry goods constitute only about one-third of all the foreign products for which we have to pay. Oar legislators have made the United States the dearest market in the world; consequently wo sell little and buy much. That proposition is so plain that the most illiterate reader can understand iL The theory of the protectionist is, that by making the home market dear, we encourage home production. The result, as shown by experience, is that when our markets are made dear, we lessen our sales to other countries, our produce costing so much they can buy cheaper elsewhere; while everybody who oan comes here to sell his wares, because everything is high. Thia business would soon collapse of itself if we had to pay specie for the difference. Sut as long as we can pay in bonds, only close observers see any danger ahead. Snmmrr ?taorts.
