Mit?5tn.to * ti?- Oppression of ?lie Shcrinan ?Sit!. The Louisville .Tournai commends' to the Executive and his subordinate commanders that their participation in the Sherman bill and the oppres? sions of thc same shall be mitigated j as much as possible by the issuance j of some such order as that of (len. | Boyle, after a year or two's expe-i rience of the multifarious rascalities ; incident to the rule of provost-mar- ; shahs in Kentucky. For instance: 1. "A written record of all proceed? ings against citizens not in the mili? tary service." 2. "To prevent unreasonable seiz? ures, arrests and searches," there shall be none such "but upon pro habit" cause, supported by oath or af? firmation, and particularly deserib- j ing the place to be searched and the person or tilings to be seized." '.>. "No person shall be compelled to be witness against himself."' 4. "The accused shall enjoy a, speedy and public trial, to be in? formed of the nature abd cause of the accusation," also of the name of tlie accuser and tho accuser's wit- | nesses, with a written copy of the; charges, tobe furnished at least two days before trial. .">. "The accused shall enjoy the right to be confronted with the wit- t nesses against him; to have com-I pulsory process for obtaining wit? nesses in his favor; and to have the assistance of counsel for his defence;" and, where it eau be done without! strong special reasons to the contrary, i a majority "f the commission for his ; trial shall ?ie composed of officers ? who then are or theretofore have ! been citizens of the State in which the offence is charged to have been committed. ti. "No thumb-screw, gagging or other personal punishment, besides ! incarceration (with proper allowance ? of food) and hanging', shall be used ! by any commission." It is not a sufficient objection to i this plan that, most of its clauses arc ! copied from tho Constitution of the J United St;ites. Indeed, the fact that j to execute the provisions of thc Sher- I man bill, as the President will feel himself compelled to do, is itself to : subvert by force the civil authority of ten States, and is thus to lill out I thc entire definition of treason laid j down by the United States Supreme Court in the Rollman case, lays upon i the President, and the commanders whom he has selected, a responsi- j bility which they should bc glad of anv opportunity to mitigate. [New York World. ? - - THE RIGHT WAY.-The South Georgia Times says: "One of the most successful farm? ers we have ever known-a man who could not write his own name-made it a rule, from which he never varied, to plant one-third of his land in small grain, one-third in Indian corn, and the balance in cotton. Many years ago, he settled in Wilkes Conn- ; ty, of this State. He grubbed for the money that bought him twenty-five j acres of the poorest land in that j County. He died rich, leaving a \ magnificent firm and numerous j slaves. So much for systematic con? tinued working-, upon a sensible plan. Everybody admits the plan a sensi? ble one, but few will work upon it. Our errors are not the fruit of our deliberate judgment, but of our haste." Tliren-tciiiiij; Aspect of AfTuir* in i Kino pc? The latest cable despatches an- ] nounee the occurrence of several quiet but importance changes in the j affairs of Europe, and the relations of thc great military powers to each i other. Prussia has been cautiously i seeking to improve upon lier victories I in the late war by effecting advan- ! tageous alliances in times of peace, j The kingdoms of Prussia and Ba? varia, and the grand duchy of Baden, j have jointly signed a treaty whereby j they are to unite their respective armies in case of wai*, undev com? mand of the King of Prussia. It is also stated that the kingdom of Wur temburg has entered into a similar arrangement, giving Prussia military control in the event of war. This powerful combination naturally ex? cites some jealousy and alarm in the French Emperor, but as he is unable to hinder its consummation, he seeks to neutralize the threatened danger by a counter confederation. With this view Napoleon has invited Hol? land. Belgium and Switzerland - to enter into a compact, for purposes offensive and defensive, with the French Empire. It is doubtful, however, whether the Emperor's scheme will meet a favorable con? sideration. In the case of Belgium. King Leopold has officially signified his disapproval of such a union. It may be mortifying to Napoleon to find his proposal treated with so little deference, but the fact must be apparent to au European statesmen, that as a military power Prussia is becoming very formidable, and the lesser dynasties doubtless think it to their interest to avoid assuming any position that could be construct! into one of hostility towards a nation that iias so large an army and so proud n military record. The fate of France is strangely associated with thc rac. of Bonapartes, and if the present Emperor, who is now in his GOtl year, should die before his son is oh enough to take his place, the conn try might undergo another pol?tica earthquake. The Prussian Govern mont is to-day more stable than thu of France, and with judicious states manship, may long retain its presen eminence and power. I Keir Yarn Sen. Ho w TO BAISE EARLY POTATOES. A correspondent of the Germantowi Telegraph thus gives his method o raising early potatoes: I thorough!; plough the ground as early ?vs th spring will permit, put it in a nie condition, and strike out thc rows th same as corn-three feet apart, an shadow. Then drop the seid abou fifteen inches apart, and cover with hoe; about one inch deep issutiiciei: to koop out frost, and the heat of th sun on the surface soon sprouts th potatoes. I generally grow buck-eye for early potatoes; there may be earlie varieties, but not so good. Lastseasoi I used them continually, from tho St of June, and that was before thej was u.ny potatoes in the market, e: cept a few from Norfolk. L don want any long manure about my pot; toes; wonk sooner have none. Th plan of raising potatoes is equal! good for the late ones, on stitt' or w. lands." LABOEEKS.--The prospects of ! boring men in New York are report) to be gloomy. The master builde say that the strikes of meehan!' have had the effect of repressii various brandies of industry. Tin say the workmen receive near twice as much wages as in form times, and desire to do less wo; to-day, which makes labor so de that capitalists arc afraid to ernph it. On the other side, the laborii men state that they cannot live ( present wages, owing to the great increased rents and high prices everything. The troubles on lab questions arc such that the prospec for both employer and employed a not very encouraging. -<*? . ?

IGNORANCE rs FRANCE, According to an oilicial French report on pri? mary education, the average number of men in France who are unable to sign their marriage register is twenty-six per cent., and of women more than forty-one per cent. In some localities, however, thc propor? tion is far higher-sixty-seven per cent, among the men, and ninety eight per cent, among the women. A TEXAS ITEM.-The Austin Intelli? gencer says: "brown domestics of an excellent quality, and in all respects equal to the Northern brands, arc now made by the manufacturing com? pany of New Pacuufels, a flourishing German town, situated near the junction of the Comal and Gauda lupe, in this State.
