General Toebtnan, of North Carolina, a native of Portland, but long a resilient of the Soutb, delivered an interesting address be fore the New York Fruit-growers' Club some days since. He said that the exports of the South are larger than those of the North, and West combined; this was so before the war, and is now. The war has impoverished the people, but has not changed tho climate nor destroyed the fertility of the coil. He would read from the report for 1867 of the Statistical Uurcnu at Washington, that tho population of the Southern States for that year was 9, 508,70!), while there exports were $328,406,757. The populatiou of t.ll the other States in the same year was 24,916,765, and their exports 8243,202,243; heuce, while the Southern States had but twenty- eight per ccut. of the entire population, they furnish sixty-nine per cent, of the total value of exports, or $34 32 cents per head; while the pro rata share iu tho other Southern States is but $25. 75. This is not accidental or an isolated instance. The same diflbreneffhns been maintained since the beginning of the Government. Before the war, iu 1860, ac cording to the United States census taken in that year, the population of tho Southern States was 10,259,007;of all the other Stutes, 21,155,963. The average amount of corn raised per head in the South was 53 2-100 bushels; in tho Northern uud Western States only 19 bushels. After the war, in the year 1866, the popu lation of the South had decreased to 9,560, 709; und yet, while onp half of their newly- niado "fullow-citizeus of African descent," refused to work,expectiugeach the gift of land and mules from the Federal Government, tho average yield of corn for each inhabitant, white and black, of the South, was thirty- three and one half bushels. The poplation of the Northern States iu the same year was 24, 916,767, and tho average yield of corn for each, twenty-four bushels. These figures are bused upon the census of 1860 and upon the reports of the Statistical Bureau at Wash iugton. This cun be attributed to no other cause than tho geniality of climate and great er productiveness of tho soil. Soma may con sider this view wrong, and reply that tho larger surplus iu the South results from the fact that the consumption is less, and that the farmers of other States consume more of their products. This is truo, but it only proves what he' would demonstrate. Tho Northern farmer consumes only during the ona hundred days of winter, and produces nothing, while during the same time even the Southern farmers produces more than he con sumes. And this is one of the additional rea sons why lubor is better remunerated in the South. On the 13th iust., in the United States Court at liichmond, Virginia, iu the pro ceedings against the former United States Marshal of that district who, in 1861, trans ferred an amount of government funds to the Confederate authorities, the defendant plead the United States Statute of Limita tion, the plea was admitted by Chief Jtfttice Chase, aud the United States non-suited. If this is to stand as the ruling of the judici ary, of course all suits against delinquent Southern postmaster and collectors will be at once abandoned, as they can plead the same defense. We have not seen Judge Chase's reasons for this decision, but iu the absence of any explanatory facts it much re sembles a violation of that principle of law which declares that no man shall profit by Lis own 'wroug. An absconding debtor, no matter how long be may remain absent, cau not on his returu plead the Statue of Limi tations as a discharge of bis liabilities. How then cau government officials, who steal goverumont funds and then join in a rebellion which, by its long continuance and wide ex tent, prevents their prosecution for several years, plead the Statute of Limitation, on the returu of peacb aud thus escape punish ment? Now that the Spraguo Party have been 80 badly beaten in the Frovidonce election, there is to be an attempt to induce the Legis lature to pass a resolution inviting him to resign his seat iu the Senate. The Anti Sprague Party are determined to assume the offensive in the most offensive manner; and, unless the Senator hasten back and apologize to Captain Goddard and General Burnsido as well as to Senator Anthony the firm of Brown & Ives, tbe First Rhode Island Regi ment the Providence Journal and Major Clarke, it will certainly go hard with him. A Professorship of American History is to be established at the University of Heidle berg, Germany, and a distinguished Ameri can scholar offered the chair. It would be well if England and France would immedi ately found similar professorships. A little knowledge of American history would have saved them both a costly blunder during the Jate war. Since the tax on whisky was reduced to fifty cents per gallon the average receipts from that source have averaged fully one hundred per cent, more than they were un der the two dollar tax. This ought to bo conclusive evidence that the chango was a wiso one. The utter failure to collect a sixth part of the two dollar tax proved this, that there is a point beyond which the in tegrity of average men cannot bo safely tempted, and revenue laws must recoguizo this principle or prove abortive. Tub Viroinia F.i.kotion. The Virginia election has at last been fixed for the 6th of July. The day has been put off so late that tho harvest may bo gathered before political excitement becomes too high to interfere with tho necessary work. The result con hardly be doubted. The Constitution will bo adopted, negro suffrage and all. Several clauses relating to dipfi-ancaioement, test oath, nud officers, will bo voted on separate ly. Theso may be rejected. Rnrum.K:AN Administration. Tho do crease of tho National Debt during the first month of Grant's Administration was $2,915 320'. Turing tbe second niorth it was ?6, 399,070. During tho third month it will be at least seven millions! Meanwhile our In ternal Uovenue steadily improves, the upward movement of our bonds continues, the Pacific Railroad expenses are substantially ended, and tbe Secretary of the Treasury 13 moving cautiously but wisely. Tho Bkies grow brighter. Our new Minister in Paris, Mr. Wash buruo, presented his credentials to the Em peror on Saturday. Both Minister and Em peror dwelt as usual on tho traditional friend ship of the two countries, which, according to the Emperor, has now uninterruptedly ex isted for a hundred years. The Emperor al together iguored his diplomatic conflict with our Government concerning Mexico, which, at tho time, was not commonly regarded as a sign of close-sympathy and amicable feeling. A Charleston paper states that a citizen of New York has bought the Snow's Island plantation, on Groat Pedee, for 812,000 cash. This is a historic spot, and famous as the almost inaccessible camping place of Marion during the war of the Revolution. Gov. Curtiu is the fifth Minister to Russia from Pennsylvania. His predecessors were William Wilkins. James Buchanan, Georgo M. Dallas and Simon Cameron. The Revolution iu Cuba. Havana, May 12, via Key West, May 13. Private letters have been received from rebel sources, giving accounts of another battle between the Spanish troops and in surgents, It took place on May 3, at Las Miras. The Spaniards numbered 1,200, and were under commond of Lesca. The two first assaults wero repulsed by the Cubans. Tho third was very determined, and tho Cubans begnn to retreat, when Quesada ordered his rear guard to the front They advanced, driving the Cubans into tho front rauks of tho enemy. A band to band combat ensued, iu which tho butchery was horrible. The Spaniards finally pave way aud retreat ed, but iu good order. Their I053 is estimat ed at 100 killed and 300 wounded; that of the Cubans 200 killed and a proportionate number of wounded. After tho fight the rebels marched to San Miguel and burned tho town, iu tho sight of the retreuting Span iards. It is generally believed the revolutionary leaders have changed their policy in the Geld, and in the future will fight, instead of re treating to the mountains on the appearance ot government troops. Iu the battle at Alta Gracia, which took place on the 1st instant, the Cuban loss was 200, and that of the Spaniards 180 killed aud wounded. The Spaniurds here regard the result of these actions as fatal to tho rebellion, but the Cubaus are jubilant over them as the first great successes of the war for indepen dence. A thoughtful Wife, Erie occasion ally does things brown, but from the fol lowing we should judge she does them also in other colors : A plump, red-faced loud talking woman, evidently from the rural districts, stepped into a dry goods store not long ago and asked to see some mournin' stuff. The polite clerk handed down some rolls of different varieties, fashionable for such uses, and, thinking to expediate a sale if he understood tbe consanguity for which the mourning was to be donned, inquired of her in what manner the deceased was related to her ? This question was too vague for her comprehension, and was replied to with an ictcrrogative stare. The clerk bridged the difficulty with the brief question. " Who's dead ? " " Why," she replied, " fact is, their ain't nobody dead as 1 knows on, but the doctor says my old man (husband) can't live more nor a week or so at furthest, an' been' 'twas mar. ket day, and I was in town, I thought I'd better bo gcttiu' the funeral fixings and mrke 'em up, 'cause it's a real bother to get 'em made when there's dead folks in the house, on' I hate to borrow." Tiie Fruit Crop. The official annual estimate of the freight agents along the line ot tho Delaware Railroad, of the probable demand on the company for fa cilities for tho transportation of fiuit dur iugthe coming season, has just been pub lished. The totals ot tbe tables furnish the following Btat isties : Peach trees four years old and over, 2,009,500, yielding 1,209,180 baskets of pcecbes. Strawber ries, acres cultivated, 410 ; yielding 1,018,740 quarts. Blackberries; acres 58 J yielding 74,5000 quarts. Raspber ries, acres 35, yielding 21,000 quarts, or a total of 540 acres planted with berries, 1,1 14 ,250 quarts This estimate does not include the large crop of wild berries picked by the poorer classes, and yielding a handsome return. ' The peach trees three years old and under are 885,240 in num. ler, and with tbe 1,099,500 trees four years old and over, make a total of 1,894, 830 peach trees along the line of 'he Dcla wars railroad. The First Recorded Burial The first mention, in the Hebrew Scriptures of a burial, is that of Sarah the wife of Abraham. Of each of the prtrarchs, with one exception, whose names are recorded in the 6th of Genesis, it is briefly said, " nnd he died." It is not added, " and was buried." From the death of Abel, the first to die, to that of Sarah, a period of two thousand years, in no instance are we told what disposition was made of the mortal remains. " All the days that Adam lived were nine hun dred and thirty years ; and he died." What was tho " order for the burial of the dead " at the funeral of the first man ? and whero did they lay his body ? The Gist burial place described in the sacred records is the cuvo which was se lected as the burial place of Sarah. Of (his sepulchre we have, in the book of Genesis, a history of affecting biiuplicity and beauty. While Abraham was a stranger, and a sojourner at Hebron, his wifo died, and he was obliged to seek for her a burial place. The people of the land honored him as a mighty prince among them, and offered bira his choice of their sepulchcrs. He mu?t have appreciated the kindness of tho offer, but ho naturally preferreJ a family burial place of his own and he bad set his heart on a cave in the field of Macphelah, which seemed fitted (or the sad purpose. Tho field and cave therein belonged to Ephron, the Hittite. b or some reason, which does not appear, Abraham did not nrst apply, to this man for the purchaso of tho cave, but he asked his friends and his neighbors to opply for him. Ephron offered; Abraham both the field and the cave as a gift. The bcraved patriarch was unwilling thus to receive them, lie would not bo dependent, so loni as no necessity required it, on the generosity of others, nor would he bury his beloved dead in a' sepulchre that cost him nothing. I will give thee money for the field," he said to Ephron, " take it of me, and I will bury my dead ' there." Ephron, iu reply, tunned four hundred shekels of silver as the worth of tho field. This Bum Abraham paid by weight to Ephron, iu the presence of tho people of the laud. The contract and payment hav ing been publicly witnessed, tho field, with the cave therein, " and all tho trees that were in the field." became the property of Abraham and his heirs. This is the first recorded instance of a legal conveyance of leal estate, and it is remarkable that it is the conveyance of a burial place. All men cannot be land holder?, but every man may reasonably ex. pect to have, some day, as much land as may servo for a grave. In the cave of Macphe lah Abraham buried his wife. Thirty eight years passed away and his sons buried him in the cave. Ono hundred and thirty two years later, Jacob dying in Egypt, re membered that family sepulchre, and charged his sons to bury him therein. Having described it as " the cave that is in the fitld of Macphelah, before Manure, in the land of Carman, which Abraham bought with the field of Kphrou the Hittite," he added the words so tenderly expressive of the natural wish to rest among one's.kindred " There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife ; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife J and there I buried Leuh." After these specific directions there could be no mistake as to the locality of the sepulchre to which Jacob's last thoughts and wishes were turned, and his sons accordingly carried him into CaDaun and laid him with his father?, Abraham and Isaac. With the burial of Jacob the record of burials in the cave Macphelah closes. The cave is not uow in the possession of iis rightful owners, the heirs of Abraham. Little did the honored patriarch imagine when ho purchased it as a burial place, that in distant age's it would lie within tho walls of a mosque, while his descendants, whose presence in the land should be its protection, would bo scattered among the nations " an astonishment, a proverb and a byword " because they would not listen unto tho voice of the Lord their God. And yet it is gratifying to know that the tomb of tho patriarch has been protected, though by the bands of " Turks, infidels, and heretics." What countless multitudes of tho wise and gocd have passed away of whose graves wo know nothiuing. " Dust long outlasts the storied stone ; But they ' ' their ' very dust is gone."

J he following tunny inci dent actually happened in California : In tho mid.-t ot a crowd of witnesses, the cler. gyman had just completed the interesting ceremony which binds in tbe silvery bonds of wedlock two willing hearts, and stretched forth his hands to implore the blessings of Heaven on the union. At this point the groomsman, seeing the open hand reached out, supposed it was tha signal for him to surrender tho wedding fee, which was burning in h'n pocket. Accordingly, just as the clergyman closed hi.-j eyes in prayer, lie felt the preauure of a double eale upon his paliu.

An Anninehsary Proposed. On tho morning of Monday, the 7th of June 1709 a lutlc before 11 o'clock, Pauiel 15oon, at tended by a party of friends in hunting shirts, came suddenly out of a cano. brake upon one of the cliffs overlooking the Ken. tueky river, and savr, for the first time the beautiful Kentucky valley, sweeping out like a promised land before him. The Louisville Courier Journal proposes that the people of Kentucky celebrate the 7th of June as the next centineunial annivcr saro of lioone's discovery and settlement IJelt.8 in China. According to Chi nese writers, the great bell of Canton was cast five centuries ago. At first no person was bold enough to strike it. Afterward, however, one of tbe officials ordered it to be struck, whereupon upward of one thou sand infants, male and female, died throughout the city. On this account, youug children, both boys and girls, wcro made to wear clothing witb fringes, to which small silver bells were attached, as a charm to ward off tho evil inflncnce.

A dressing which ia at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair is soon restored to its original color with the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thick mm ened, fulling hair checked, nnd bald ness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore tho hair -where the follicles are destroyed, or tho glands atrophied and decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling tho hair -with a pasty sedi ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from turning gray or falling off, and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous and injurious to tho hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not barm it. If wanted merely for a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can bo found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts long ou the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
