Speech of. James Guthrie.
There was a supper in Frankford ;
On Saturday last, given to members of
the Legislature, by Mr. Guthrie,
Powell's successor in the United States
Senate. He said : ' I went as a repre
sentative from Kentucky to the Peace
Convention, and warned them that this
war would prove the most disastrous
thatever took place. I believe the Union
will *be restored. I believe that when we
• strike down the arms of the South we
will find there many true friends. I
have always been a Union man, for I
did not think we could afford to give it
• up. When' Igo to Congress it will be as
the representative of the Union men of
this State. We are thefUnion men who
saved Kentucky in herpresent position.
Some thought we were too slow, and
they wanted a convention ; but why
should we quarrel ? It is to the inter
est of Kentucky that she stands by the
Union. It is to her interest that we do
*not separate it. I have no objection to
those Union men whose patriotism and
devotion to the Union are above mine; I ut
when they are of my age they may think,
as I do, of their duty to the constitution
and obedience to the laws. If any man
supported me, thinking I would not
vote for what is constitutional, he is
very much mistaken. I always thought
I had a right to do as I pleased with my
own property, but I never believed I pos
sessed the right to take another man's.
If the constitution and laws give a man
a servant, I have no right to take it
away. If slavery falls by the rebellion
let it go. If I understand the Unoin
men who have gone to • the field, they
are willing that slavery, if it is neces
sary for the good of the country, should
go down. As your representative I in
tend to put down the rebellion by the
use of men and money ; but I do not in
tend to set the rights of property at
naught. If slavery goes by the rebel
lion, I am ready to help to clear away
the wreck. Is it a reproach to Ken
tucky that she did not want to shed
brothers blood, but called for peace until
she became the laugh of the whole
land? Serious times are ahead of
us. We have learned that the consti
tution and laws have been trampled
upon in high places ; that the rights of
property and persons have been outrag
ed in high places, and that robbers
through the land are plundering the
people. When Igo to Congress I will
ask for a restoration of the reverence for
the constitution, reverence for the law.
I desire that the time shall come when
we all will learn to love the constitution
more and better. Ido not believe that
the men in power, i'ho have been guilty
of outrages on property and persons, will
always remain there ; and not once in
ten times did they have the sanction of
higher authority. I will endeavor, as
far as is in my power, to recall the hal
cyon days of the republic, and show
those in power that the greatest glory
they can acquire is to restore happiness
to the Union. None can love the Union
more than those who supported me. Mr.
Lincoln is a better man than many
- think, and I believe good will come of
this administration ; but if not, then in
four 3 - ears we will have an opportunity
to remove it.
A Writ of Habeas Corpus Suspended by
the President
Tuesday was set apart for the return of
the writs of habeas corpus on the Super
intendent of the Old Capitol prison, com
manding him to produce the bodies 0
Christopher V. Hogan and John I)tigan
with date and cause of thei r arrest. They
were formerly employed as detectives on
the Metropolitan Police force, and subse
quently Hogan was a special de
tectives of the Treasury Department.
SN,'hile so acting a robbery was committed
n February last. The trunk of Malor
Malone, a paymaster of the army, was
robbed of nearly twenty thousand dol
lars. Some time after Hogan and Dugan
were arrested by Superintendent Wood
on a charge of being concerned in the
robbery, and they have ever since been
held in custody. This morning, at the
convening of the general term of the
court, Mr. Wood appeared to answer
the writs and handed his return to the
court. Superintendent Wood answer
ed:—
The body of Hogan or Dugan is in
my possession. He was arrested and
imprisoned by authority of the Presi
dent of the United States. It do not
produce his body by reason of the order
of the President of the United Mates
endorsed upon said writ, to which
reference is hereby respectfully made.
The endorsement of the President on
writ is as follows:
The within named Hogan or Dugan
was arrested and imprisoned by my
authority. The writ of hdibeas
is suspended, and the officer having
Hogan or Dugan in custody is directed
not to produce his body, butto hold him
in custody until further orders, giving
this order in his return to the court.
JAN. 23, 1865
Suspected of Being a Spy
Jackson Wallace, alias Lieut. Bissell,
was arrested several days since in the
vicinity of Eutaw street, Baltimore,
upon suspicion of being a spy. He was
clad in the full uniform of United States
Lieutenant of infantry, and upon exam
ination acknowledged that he was a
Confederate soldier, andltelonged to the
Second Virginia Infantry but stated
that he had for a long time been on de
tached service, both within and without
the Confederate lines. He had for a
month past been in Mongomery county,
Md., on recruiting service, and when
arrested had with him Charles W. A.
Davis, of Rockville, whom he enlisted
for the Confederate army, under the re
presentation that he was recruiting men
for guard duty in Washington. He was
formerly connected with Den. Sterling

Woolley forwiled him to Washington,

NAPOLEON'S OPINION. — During the
stay of the Emperor Napoleon at Lyons,
in reply to an address of a deputation
of traders, in which they insisted that
the winter was a very ging one for the
working classes ;if the American war
should continue, he said : " Unfortu
nately the news from that quarter is
bad. I have reason to think that this
fatal war is by no means near its end."
Sir Walter Scott once stated that he
kept a lowland laird waiting for him in
the library at Abbottsford, and that
When he came in he found the laird
deep in a book' which Sir Walter per
ceived to be Johnson's Dictionary.
" Well, Mr. ," said Sir Walter,
"how do you like your book?" "They're
very pretty stories, §ir Walter," re
plied the laird, "but they're uncom
mon short."

StrGAlL.—The only portions of the Unito4
States where the sugar cane can be grown
with even tolerable success, are small dis
tricts ,in the States of Louisiana, Texas,
Florida, Alabama .and Mississippi. Of
these, however,fLouisians, as_ far as soil,
climate and temperature are concerned, is
best adapted to that • branch of agriculture ;
yet the cane is not indigenous to that State.
It may be considered a precarious crop even
in Louisiana, owing to the frequent heavy
frosts, occurring between the commence
ment of the cane ripening and its manufac
ture into sugar. It is frequently the case
there that half of the cane crop is lost by
frostT - InLouisianic the most famed of all
the Southern States for the growth of the
cane, there are but a few parishes where it
can be successfully grown. The region of
the State bordering on both sides of the
Mississippi, from Baton Rouge to its mouth,
and the regions bordering on Bayous
Fische, Lapouche and Atctrofalaya, and a
few other Bayous, are the only localities
where the cultivation of the cane is remu
nerative. It is evident therefore that the
people of this country, must depend for their
supply of sugar upon Tropical countries, or
else engage in its manufacture from the
beet.
Since the commencement of the present
civil war but little sugar has been made in
Louisiana. The confiscated sugar planta
tions, worked by Yankee adventurers in
search of fortunes, under the system of free
negro labor have proven complete failures,
Pn . the reason that this branch of agricul
ture requires for its successful management
the highest degree of skill, combined with
•in abundance of labor during the season of
cutting the cane, as well as a large capital
invested in machinery. On many of the
sugar plantations of Louisiana the ma
chinery and fixtures for manufacturing
sugar cost as much as $lOO,OOO. The lessees
of confiscated sugar plantations hold by too
precarious a title to justify them in keeping
in repair the extensive works and machin
ery for sugar making. The cane is grown
from cuttings, but the quality of the sac
charine juice deteriorates in quality with
each harvesting of the cane, and experience
has demonstrate that the successful manu
facture of sugar requires the cane to be re
planted at least every three years. After
the third year's harvesting of the crop in
Louisiana, and all other countries, where
the cane is not indigenous, the saccharine
will not make sugar, its only product is an
inferior article of molasses; it appeais to
ose the property of crystalizing into sugar.
I , 'or want of the knowledge of this fact thi
Government lessees in 1862 and 1863 cut
down all the cane, and made no provision
6,r replanting; their extreme greed to get
rich suddenly induced them to attempt
more than could be accomplished, and fully
one-half of the cane grown in that State
during those years was lost. The cane was
rut and the juice allowed to ferment in the
stalk, when, of course, its product was
nothing but an inferior article of molasses.
In consequence of the - failures of the les
sees of government plantations in the mak
hng of sugar in the years 18.62 and 1863,
most of these lessees durinThe past year,
prompted by the high prices of cotton, de
stroyed the growing cane and put the lands
into cotton, expecting to realize immense
pro tits from the cultivation of that staple;
I ut, whether owing to a special dispensat ion
of Divine Providence, or to natural laws
governing the digribution of distinct species
of vegetation over-the earth, the cultivation
of cotton on the sugar lands of Louisiana
has proven a huge .fitilure. Those. whose
cupidity f,i sudden wealth led them to en
gage in the enterprise, Jost all their capital
invested in it. The cotton grew finely until
the bolls commenced forming, when sud
denly myriads of worms made their appear
ance and destroyed it all. .The disappear
ance of vegetation before the swarms or
iiieusts in Egypt has never been more com
plete than the disappearance of the cotton
plants lwfore the worms on the sugar lands
of Louisiana during the past year. So great
has been the havoc among the lessees 01
government plantations t and those who fur-
nished them capital for working them, that
it is doubtful whether any persons can be
induced to engage in this business in the
future. It is a well established fact that five
Lihire have been lost in these enterprises
where one dollar has been realized.
To every one familiar with the theta, it is
a positive certainty that the sugar lands or
Louisiana, and the other States, must be
worked by slave labor, or be suffered to
grow up again into primeval forests. The
very nature of the business of making sugar
requires the absolute control of a vast
amount of labor, and it can never be suc
cessfully conducted except where the growth
of the cane and the making of the sugar be
long to a single establishment, and the lar
ger the plantation, properly stocked, the
greater the success attending its inanufac
turfs. The cultivation of cereal crops may
be best conducted on small farms ; but not
so wit h sugar cane. The harvesting of grain
can be eNentied over a censiderable space
of time. *can remain in shock after being
cut for weeks, and it does not injure it for
years if placed in barns or under cover.—
With the sugar cane it is different. In all
countries w here the sugar cane can be grown,
the high temperature causes fermentation
f the juice in the stalk within a few hours,
entirely destroying the sugar. It must,
therefore, be taken directly from [the field
when cut to the mill, and the juice pressed
and immediately put in process of manu
facture. The harvest and manufacture of
the cane into sugar are, in fact, but a single
operation, and the whole business must be
so arranged and controlled that every de
partment of it, from the cutting of the cane
ti the barrelling or boxing of the sugar for
market, goes on smoothly and harmonious
ly.
A LINCOLN
Let any one for a moment imagine the
sugar plantations of Louisiana, often num
bering many thousand acres, cut up into
small tracts like the grain farms of the
Northern States, and each farmer having a
sugar apparatus, steam engines, vacaum
Pais, furnace for the manufacture and all the
necessary puraphernaliaofa sugar establish
ment, and it is plainly to be seen, that the
original expense of procuring the machin
ery, and keeping it in repair, would cost
more than the value of all the sugar that
could, be made from a fifty or one hundred
acre tract, leaving nothing for the expenses
of living, or for the payment of necessary
labor, c,ptally impracticable would be
the idea of separating the manu
facture from the business of ~growing
the vane. A sugar manufactory,
for its cane upon a few dozen farmers on
tifty or one hundred-acre farms, who take
their own time for planting their cane, the
whole possibly planted at the same time
and ripening at the same period, would he
too pre..arions to justify any man having a
knowledge of-the business to engage in such
an undertaking. The cane is too heavy
to be transported to any distance,
and would be destroyed in value, in the
event of any time elapsing, between
being cut and put in process of
inat m facture. No. proposition can therefore
be more clear than that the cultivation and
Inaltufacture of sugar from cane must, front
necessity, be conducted on a large scale, on
large plantations, and byjslave labor. The
present Price of sugar is an illustration of
what the people who consume it have
gained by Abolitionism.. Every pound of
sugar consumed pays a tax of about 15
cents, not for the support of the Govern
ment, but because of the destruction of the
sugar manufacture of the country, by the
demoralization and destruction of the labor
by which tilone the cane can be cultivated
and manufactured into sugar. how long
the people will allow their passions to run
away with their reason, and continue the
insane policy of the present National Ad
ministration for the abolition of slavery, it
is difficult to say, but it is certain that just
so long as it is continued will the people be
compelled to pay the enormous price for
sugar which they are now doing.

GOINU TO SAVANNA 11.—Why do.so many
of our young men think of going to Sa
vannah? We think they are making a
great mistake, and shall give our reasons
briefly: In the tirst place the warm and
sickly season is rapidly approaching, and
persons not acclimated stand in very great
danger of having a siege of yellow fever or
some of the other diseases incident to a
warm climate. In the second place, we are
certain that boarding is very high, and in
ferior at that, and although mechanics may
get 3 a day, it will not amount to as much
as $1.50 a day here. Third, no mechanic is
positively certain that he will get to Savan
nah, after being offered high wages by a so
called Government agent. For instance:
two or three young men who left this city a
week or ten days since, having engaged
themselves to one of these "Government
agents," are now in Baltimore, the agent
having "given them the slip " at that point,
and leaving them behind to shift for them
selves. What authority he had for coming
here, and offering wages and transportation
to our mechanics and laboring men we
know not. We do know, however, that
these young men are in Baltimore, and are
not on their way to Savannah, nor is it very
likely they soon will be. The old adage,
" better let well enough alone," is truly ap
plicable in theirs and similar cases. Those
of our mechanics and laboring men, there
fore, who do not wish to go on a "wild goose
chase," had better see their way clear be
fore attempting a journey to Savannah at
the present time.

constitutes an important ingredient in
the composition of all the cereals, grains
as well as grasses. Its presence, there—
fore, si,n the soil, is to be recongriized as
a condition of fertility. For instance
whet -- this mineral is combined with
rough, viscid and tenacious clay, it ren
ders it more friable, and more suscepti
ble to the ameliorating action of atmos
pheric agencies. Clay, in which there
is a due mixture of calcareous matter, is
much more easily mrified, and conse
quently not so liable to be injured by an
accumulation of water. On the other
hand, it was a powerfultendencytocon
solidate sand, and to increase both its
tenacity and its power of retaining water.
It also favors the decomposition and
reciprocal action of the nutritive juices
contained in the soil, but it is doubtful as
yet whetherit transmits its carbonic acid
to the humus, or even to the vegetables
contained on the soil, though this
isthe opinion entertained by many
writers, both in this country and in Eu
rope. There are many reasons, indeed,
to induce such a belief, although the in
vestigations of science have not yet es
tablished the fact as incontrovertible.
Another important office performed by
lime, is the total prevention of acid
formations, which, under certain cir
cumstances, are so easily produced in
the soil. When acid exists, it tends to
neutralize them, and prevent those
noxious effects to which they inevitably
give rise. In other words, it converts
them into manure. This is seen in its
effects upon those light silicious sands
where the presence of acids produces
the sorrel plant, and other productions
of a sour nature, and of little worth for
any purpose to which the farmer can
apply thern.
• The hull of grain grown on lands in
which there is a proper admixture of
lime, is invariably found to be far thin
ner and the farina, of the grain itself
far greater than when growing on land
where there is a deficiency of this earth.
Such land is found to be far more favor
able to all those plants—a numerous
class—which bear pods, or, in other
words which belong to the class " dia
delphia ;" consequently clover succeds
well on it, and it has hence been ascer
tained by reiterated and accurate
experiments that one of the most
valuable applications that can be made
to lands bearing red or white clover is a
compost of which lime is an ingredient.
But here we would remark, that not
withstanding a certain proportion of
lime, or calcarous earth, is indispensi
ble to the fertility of every description
of land, too great a proportion of it is
prejudicial. On this subject one of the
ablest writers whose pen has shed light
upon agriculture, says: " Lime in large
quantities is prejudicial in districts
where a chalky formation exists, be
cause it does not retain moisture ; and
has even a greater disposition than sand
to suffer it to evaporate, consequently,
during warm, dry weather, it is totally
parched and reduced to dust. It also
consumes manure and humus very
rapidly, accellerates the passage of those
substances to the plants, and thus
haStens the vegetation at first, and does
not reserve any nutrition foe - their sup
port during the latter stages of their
development; on which account they
fall off and perish before their maturi
ty."
And here we may, perhaps, remark
that as we are not aware of much land
in which there is actually present too
great a quantity of lime, the most effi
cient method of testing the value of any
soil, with reference to its calcareous
qualities, is by experiment; first, then,
by an analysis of both soil and crop.—
The composition of a rightly balanced
soil, is thus summed up by Reissert and
Setz " Calcareous.—That portion of
lime in which is most advantageous to
it, is a quality equal to that of pure clay.
Of all the fifty-three varieties of soils
produced by artificial combination, ex
perimented on by Tillett, that which
appeared to be the most favorable to the
vegetation of grain, was composed of
three-eights of potter's clay, four-eighths
of shell or fossil marl, and one-eighth
of sand." These data are of importance
to the practical farmer.—Ciermantown

MISIILER'S
HERB BITTERS.
- these Bitters are rapidly winning their way
to public favor, and before long will be the only
ones In popular demand. The cures they have
effected for years past has induced the proprie
tor to bring them more particularly before the
people. They are not a new remedy, the recipe
for making the "Bitters" having been in the
possession of the proprietor for many years.
The - ingredients are composed of the following
medicinal herbs and roots, all possessing well
known curative powers and are warranted not
to contain any other article: Elecarapane, Bur
dock, Spikenard, Soapwort,_ Peruvian Bark,
Machu Spicewood, Mullein, Slippery Elm, Sas
safras,' Sarsaparilla, Gentian Root, Juniper,
Spirits Nitre, Balsam Copavia, Cubebs, Dande
lien, Pure Spirits and Barberry. The Bitters
have been used by persons afflicted with vari
ous diseases for some years past, and such has
been their success in curing the most obstinate
diseases, that the proprietor is now induced for
the first time to offer them to the public, with
the full confidence and a willingness to guaran- .
tee that if properly used they will effect per
manent cures in the most obstinate cases of
diseases. They are a certain remedy for Dys
pepsia, Liver Complaints, Loss of Appetite,
Nervous affections, Intermittent Fever, Fever
and Ague, General Debility, or Weakness
caused by exposure, imprudence or excess,
Coughs and Colds, Diarrhcea,Headache, Cholera

Bitters are warranted to cure all venerial dis
eases, no matter of how long standing. The
