T. T. Kelley k Co., importers o f Teas, in
connection with their large - wholesale !holi
ness, have determined to introduce their Tess
directly to consumers at troporters' prizes,
th as effecting a saving to the consumer of 40
to 60 per cent. Families can no club to
gether for any kind or qnsiitiett at Teas, in
packages of cote pound and upwards, and we
will send them a superior article of Tea at 3
percent. above the cost of importation. Let
some energetic lady or other persOn in each
neighborhood call upon her acquaintances
and take their orders for any of the following
named Teas, and when a club of ten, twenty,
or more is obtained, send to us and we will
send the Te is put up in separate packages,
with the name of each person marked on it,
all enclosed in one box. As a foraer
matt to the person getting up the club we will
send for his or her services, AD extra compli
mentary package on all orders of $3O and Up
ward. It is perhaps not wt , ll understood why
we can sell Tens so very low • hut when it Is
taken into consideration that besides the orig
inal cost of importation, the Broker, Specula
tor, Jobber, Wholesale Dealer and Retailer,
has each to reap a large profit, and the incr
merable Corteges, Cooperages, Insurances,
Storages, &c., which Teas have to pass through .
before they reach the consumer, lei:1 readily I
explain this. We propose to do[away with
seven-eighths of these profits and expenses,
and it now remains with the people to say
whether they shall save 50 cents to $1 00 per
pound on every pound of Tea they purchase, I
or be compelled to give their earnings to a
host of useless g - bet weens.

PRICE OF PARR PRODCCE.
The condition of agriculture, in all
sections of the country, was never more
flourishing than now.. High jprices, in
the past three years, have inshred good
profits; and farmers of ordinary in
dustry and skill have been enabled to
add to their farm stock, to Improve their
buildings and lands, perhaps pay off
mortgages, or invest something in gov
ernment funds. But we cannot antici
pate a permanency of prevent prices, for,
the tendency of all merchandise is down
ward. Still if farm products decline, so
will all descriptions of goods and necessa
ries which cannot be raised on the farm.
We know that the agriculturist works
harder for a dollar, generally, than men
in other professions. Yet he has nothing
to discouragebim ; fine horses and cattle,
good poultry, well fattened beef and
pork, dairy products, grain, wool, fruit,
Ae., will always command fair and re
munerating prices.
CRANBERRY cuLTERE IN .N. JERSEY.
At a recent meeting of the Pennsylva
nia Horticultural Society, Win. Perry
read a paper containing some interesting
facts respecting the culture of the cran
berry in New Jersey. He thinks there
is at least one million of dollars invested
in the culture of cranberries in the coon
! ty of Ocean ; and in Monmouth and Bur
lington counties-, the culture Is still
more extended. At Shamong, portions
of bog haveyielded at the rate of 220 bush
els per acre, wh:ch, at the price - last fall,
would amount to $1,230 per acre. W. R.
Braddock, of Medford, has about 100
acres, twenty of which yielded last year
an average , of one hundred bu-liEls per
acre, amounting to $3 per bushel clear of
all expenses, or $6,000 from the 20 acres
in berries. T. end A. Budd purchased a
tract of cedar swamp, five years since, at
$lO per acre, for which they have since
been offered $6OO per acre. Last year
28 acres of it yielded 1,800 bushels of fruit,
or 67 bushels per acre, and amounted to
$7,200, at $4 per bushel.
We desire to awaken a general interest
on this subject in Adams county, por
tions of which are certainly well adapted
to the growth of the cranberry. Why
not make a trial wherever the land will
suit? But little outlay and labor would
,be involved, whilst the yield might be
large beyond ail expectation. Try the
experiment the coming spring, all ye
who have wet and marshy lauds.
TEEM STARVED TO DEATH
The N. E. Farmer relates a conversa
tion which took place between two far
mers-on the subject of deterioration in
the apple orchards. The conclusion ar
rive at was that orchards, as a general
thing, were literally alcoved to death.
This assumption may be rather sweeping,
but it is certainly worthy of considera
tion. Orchards left year, after year with
the turf pressed compactly about _the
roots and lower section of the bodies of
the trees, with no looosening of theeoil,
nor ally application of manure, can hard
ly be expected to produce much fruit ;
nor do they. The soil needs stirring:,
wants the aid of invigorating fertilizers,
and such prudent care as shall divest the
trees of all superabundant wood. At all
events, orchardists should avoid the just
censure of starving their trees to death,
as it is asserted many of them have done
_
and are doingyearafter year.
SPLINT,
A splint is a small, bony tumor, which
forms on the inside of the shank, or can
non bone. They sometimes develop sud
denly, and in another class of cases they
make their appearance in a slow and
gradual manner. They are usually situ
ated on the inside of the shank bone, and
they not Unfrequently arise from a blow
on the leg by the opposite foot. Where
the splint is situated near the kseejolnt,
it is more likely to prove detrimental
than when occupying a lower situation.
When ringbone is also present, it Indi
cates that the horse Is predisposcdd•to es
ostoses, and that, consequently, bony tu
mors may form In other regions of the
body.
- Trcaiment.—When there is much heat
and tenderness over the seat of the splint,
it is advisable to apply a wet bandage to
reduce the inflammation, and a little
blistering ointment may afterwards be
applied. By these means, though the
splint is no tremoved, it ceases to occasion

ASIILEY
Prominent among the Radical mem
bers of Congrets is an individual named
Ashley—James M. Ashley, of Ohio—
who having made himself somewhat no
torious as the author of the resolution
impeaching the President of the United
States, now proposes to Increase his
growing fame by impeaching the great
Democratic Tarty of the nation. On
Saturday last this ambitious legislator
made use of the following language:
The assumption—the brazen assump
tion of men here who doring, the entire
war were in secret alliance with the reb
els, corning here now and Joining hands
with the apostate at the other end of the
avenue, who is the leader—the recogniz
ed leader of a counter revolution or neg
ative rebellion, as I said awhile ago,
passes comprehension.
After Le had taken his seat, Mr. Win
field, of New York, who had id - the
meantime obtairied from the reporter a
copy of the above remarks, asked Ashley
"to whom he had intended to apply
those words ?" and, being answered, the
•
following scene occurred,:
Mr. Ashley—l inteudefi to refer to the
great body of the men in the opposition;
to every man who was opposed to the
war, opposed to the draft, who discoura
ged enlistments, who harbored desert
ers, who went into secret societies, in
order to organize conspiracies in the
North against the 'government.
Mr. Winfield—l desire to know wile.:
titer the gentleman from Ohio intends to
charge that there were , men who were
in secret alliance with the enemy during
the rebellion?
Mr. Ashley—l am unable to say from
any personal knowledge whether there
are any such men here;, but from gene
ral reputation, and frolic' the votes of
gentlemen who were in opposition dur
ing the war, and from speeches made by
gentlemen on that side of the House, I
"have uo douht, that some of the mien
here have been here during the entire
war. •
Mr. Winileld—l do not propose to be
tried on general reputatjon. I desire to
say for myself, and so far as I know for
my associates on this floor, of our school
of polities, that the insinuation that we
are, or ever have been, in alliance with
the rebels, is utterly Untrue, and if in
tended to apply to us, it is a false and un
founded slander.
Mr. Hunter, of New York—And I say
that so far as. I am concerned, it is a base
lie.
The Speaker pro km., (Mr. Upson in
the chair,) called the gentleman from
New York to order.
The Speaker (Mr. Colfax,) then resuru l
ed the ehair, and
Mr. Hill, of Indiana, excepted to the
language used by Mr. Hunter.
The Speaker-,-Those words are out of
order.
Mr. Randall, of Pennsylvania—Never
theless, true. .
The Speaker—The gentleman from
Pennsylvania is out of order in interpo
lating that remark.
Mr. Kelley, of Pennsyl,yania, took ex
ception to the remark ilf Mr. Randall,
supposing it however, t 9 have Leen wage
Ly Mr. Hunter.
Mr. Randall, of Pen sylvania—T made
ii
that remark, and if n y colleague wishes
to hear it again, 1 wil repeat it.
Perhaps it might be just as well here
to' leave Ashley to himself; but for the
sake of historical truth, we propose to
show what kind of a man Ashley really
Is, and in order to do so correctly, we
will put Ashley himself on the stand.-
1 Ashley boldly charges men, the la tchet
, of whose shoes he is not fit to tie, with
high crimes'and misdemeanors, and yet
the following letters, produced before an
investigating committee of Congress,
clearly establish the fact that Ashley
was guilty of trying] to sell his official
Influence to "put money in his purse,"
and therefore stand* before the country
i as an °Mee jobber of the worst and low
eststamp. Here is Oiti own evidence:
WAsHINGToN, March 12, 1861.
MY DEAR SIR: I have made some pro
f gress to-day about the Surveyorship to
Colorado. In order to secure (he hull
ant delegation, and to operate on

ing me to make that pledge for you. I

I sing you as a practichl civil engineer and
otherwise, and direct to the Secretary of
the Interior, but to me on the envelope.
! I have written to and twice on
the subject, to get you the Indorsement
of the Legislature. !have not got it }-et.
'Please writethem. Charley feels a deli
cacy in pressing your elahns, because he
expects to be a candidate for Clerk of the
next House, and does not want to run
'across the track of any one. What you
do, do quickly.
Now, Frank, this is the best office, in
myjudgment.inth‘ gift of the President,

My DEAR CASE: Our matter is in bet
ter shape to-day. The President prom
ised me that this appointment should
not be made until next week, and said I
should have a fair hearing ..,
. I shall fear a defeat, however, if Ido
not get your written authority to guarau- .
tee that all your subordinate appoint
ments shall be secured to the persons
who helped tile through this matter, and
that you will fully authorize me to pledge
you to, perform the promises I have
made, that the surveyors and sub-cau
-1
tractors to be employed by •ou are to be
at the joint disposal of two o her persons
and myself. Please copy, a - id send me
at once the inclosed for th-tt urpose.
Now, one word as to ourselves. It is
agreed that my. brother Eli is to be chief
clerk, and my brother Williatn, who is
now in Colorado, shall have such a posi
tion as he can fill, he having always been
a farmer. The other I shall select when
I have more time. The surveying con
tracts, &c., We will fix after the appoint
ment by meeting at Toledo or— —, or by
agreetnent with and others.
Now, if I pet this, I want to Lc a full
co-purl ocr with you in the purchase of all
tla reale:4olc that you may make in teal
Tcrritoey. I have spent a great deitor
time and some money to gct I his plaee,
and if I do get it, I hope yt; u will cheer
fully go in with me. I have drawn up
the Inclosed agree/mint, which I wish
you would sign and keep, and copy One
just like it, sign it and forward .and re
turn the other agreement.
Let me hear from you by return mall,
and hurry along any letters and tele
graphs from men who can have influence
here. In haste, yours truly,
J. M. ASHLEY.
In putting Ashley in the pillory, none
can be taloned but Ashley himself. He
is the author of 'his own punishment.
He fashioned in his own workshop the
sharp instrathents that ale now crushing
the marrow out of his tones. Like
many others' of this wicked school, he
finds that "curses like little chickens al
ways come home to roost," and that,
sometimes, so, do "letters." His "case°
is certainly a hard one and is only ant.th
er illti trntion of the fact that
"Full oft have letters caused the writers
'co curse the day they were indite&."
That Ashley was properly dealt with
on Saturday last, all sensible men will
admit. That he bore his Merited casti
gaion with charaeteristic meekness, no
one will wonaer at, for "none but cow
ards lie," and so we leave him. —.49e.
WHAT THE JAPANESE JUGGLERS DO•
One of the feat' of the Japan°Pe jug
glers now in San Francisco on their way
to the Paris Exhibition, is thus de-
Aeribed :
"An old man lies upon his back with
his feet in the air, a little - boy mounts and
stands upon them. An oval tub is j'as
sed to the boy, which he places under
his feet anti upon the man's, another is
given to him which is aeded to the first,
and so on until the little l'ellow's head
touches the proscenium froai the top of
the tottering - pile, which is nil the time
supported by the strong and muscular
chap below.
'rite little fellow makes his salaam to
'the audience from his dizt v height, cool
ly fans himself as he surveys the sitrta
tion, and appears as unconcerned as if
reposing on terra tirma. , Suddenly one
of the performers utters an exclamation
in Japanese, which is responded to by
another. The old man, the foundation
of the pile, takes up the chorus, the Bale
fellow at the top jerks it out like the
snapper of a whip, the "foundation"
gives his feet a kick—things look squally
tor little Tom toy—the audience fear that
he will fall and break his I'M; or be ter
ribly bruised among the boxes; the old
than beneath appears in imminent dan
ger also from the falling tubs, but no, he
gives his feet a kick, throws the tubs en
tirely from him, and Tommy drops like
a cat, alighting with his feet upon the
old man's and in an upright position."
taiiirA tall, raw-boned Yankee was
ridine; a diminutive ispeeitoen of the
donkey tribe not long since through the
streets of Gotham,' and the animal being
very stubborn, Jonathan found it quite
difficult to induce him to.aceelerate his
pace.
He used the persuasive eloquence of a
hickory stick, and at each blow he
would drawl out— ,
"(let up, Bonyptirt, get up, I say!"
A little Frenchman, in passing,-heard
with rage, the name of his illustrious
countryman applied to the ugly beast,
and commenced heaping a volley of
abuse on the offending Yankee.
"Salt," shouted the Gaul, "vot for you
call zat ugly best Napoleon? By gar,
sair, t shall have the ze grand IsaListte
tion!"
"Om up, Bonyrt," was the only re
sponse.
"tittere! monsieur, 'lair toy, what
for you 'call zat vagabuue horse Napo
leon?"
"Get up, Ilonypart!"
Here tile Frenchman's rage boiled over,
and stamping his feet upon the pave
ment, he screamed—
"Oh, by gar! I shall have ze revenge,
ze grand satiefaetionl have oue little
sheep dog at my villa. I go call him
George Washington, by gar!"

The following terrible yet truthful pie
tore of the cobdition to which fanaticism

of spindles v, Welt whirred in a thousand i

woolen mills, is being silenced, and the '

the fin-ewes of our State are paling, and
