t'iHi desepli WingGoId, an ox-mfcuibor of tno
City council of Richmond, tells u good story
of tho time when ho stood soutiucl around
4/ibby : * " ^
'So, I hp old prison is sold, is it ? ' ho
said. "Well, gentlemen, I uovcr go by that
place without laughing, mow. I can't kelp<
thinking of (he cute trick played by a lot
of Yankees there. The fact is, it was so
good that, although 1 had been ordered to
shoot in among tlieui, I disobeyed orders.?.
It was about '03, and tho Lfbby building
was-so crowded that it wouldn't held any
more prisoners, so they put a largo lot of
them in the second story of the building
across the street. Soon after these prisoners
came the prison officials got n largo lot
of sweet potatoes (regular yams) from
North Carolina, nod stored thorn on the first
tfoor of tho building in which those prisoners
wero confined. Pig sweet potatoes
were luxuries in those days, aud Turner and
those fell >ws kept a strict watch over the
building, t can tell you. Tho third dnv
ufter they hud been slowed away it was noticed
that they were disappearing at the
rato of about u bushel a day. At first it
was thought that the rats took them, but a
second thought showed that tlio idea was
absurd. Sentinels were posted all ground
(ho building with orders to shout any man
they ennobt stealing those ysun*, but they
didn't see anybody to shoot, and although
they were posted there day and night, and
no one was allowed to enter tho room in
which the potatoes were kept, they continued
to disappear at I ho rate of a bushel a
day. Tho (Jonfederates saw their yams
disappearing in this way, and were furious.
The thing was au unaccountable mystery.?
Tho doors and widows of tho room were
scaled and private marks wcro put on the
wax, so chat if any one of them was opoucd
it would bo known. Tho next morning the
officers went into the room. The wax was
all right, hut another bushel of potatoes
had vanished. Well, sir, it was I he mad
dekt crowd you ever saw. They oaino to
me and ordered me to 'uke my stand in the
room. They looked mo in, and a lighted
candle was put at caeii cud of the room so
that I could see. I was ordered to shoot
on sight anybody 1 saw stealing those yams.
It was terribly lonesome in that rooui.?
Just as last as I would light otic candle and
go to the other cud of the room to light the
o.hcr. tho rats would cut the first one
down. They were regular Confederate
rats, and a candle was a godsend to
them. After a lot of worry ? got the
rats out of the way, and sat down near
tho Jpor waiting lor developments. There
I stayed till 12 o'clock; but though L kept
my eyes 011 the potatoes all the time, 1
couldn't sec any of them going. Shortly
after 12 I heard a creaking, grating sound,
which seemed to be all over the room at
once. I cocked my gun and held my breath,
but still L couldn't see any sign of life except
the rats creeping about the lluor. 'liy
George !' I thought, 'this darned place is
haunted, if there is any such a thing as a
place being haunted.' The sound stopped,
but about ten minutes after it began again.
I looked at the pile of potatoes, and presently
saw something shoot from the ceiling
and fall on them. 1 saw it was a brick, and
could distinguish a ropo tied to i'.. 1 crept
II J1LIIVJ tvs v it qUuu loon liv 1 lie
thing, but before 1 could examine it, it was
drawn slowly up, and there was about a pock
of yams sticking to it. It went up through
a hole which had been cut in the floor above,
and presently came down again with a
thump right among the potatoes. It was j
the most artful arrangement you ever saw.
The brick had about fifty holes drilled in it.
and through each hole a sharpened ton-penny
nail had been run, so that when the brick
fell among the yams, thefc nails stuck into
every one they fell on. I couldn't help
laughing at the smart dodge those Yankees
had taken to get at the yams. T pen ly put
my hand forward, and caught hold of the |
rope. Pretty scon they began to draw on J
it, and when it did not move, 1 heard cue
fellow say : 'Steady, boys ; the brick's
bung in something. Pull her steadily, with
out jerking.' They did pull steadily, and
fairly lifted nie from the floor. 'Xo jerk,
easy, boys, easy,' the director said, and they
tugged away. I got pretty rod in the face,
holding to the ropo. I was afraid to let go,
because I thought some of those spiked
nails might strike me in passing. I thought
of uiy pocket-knife, and hauled it out just
as they were putting all their weight on the
other cud of the r >po. I cut it in two, and
the oud shot back through the hole in the
ceiling, and I could hear a rolling and tumbling
on the floor above, showing that the
sudden giving away of the rope had a disastrous
effect. I heard another vjicc say :
'There, now, I told you so. You've broken
the rope. We've lost our brick, and t?>
morrow we'll hi found out.' Then another
voice called out : 'Cant you sec it ? We
might hook it up.' Next I saw a long neck
protruding through the hole, and a fellow
peering down. Then 1 called out : 'Ifyon
trouble any more of those potatoes I'll
shoot.' That fellow's head shot back
through that hole just like a terrapin, and
it was as still as death up there. 1 hated to
tell on them, because it was such a sharp
scheme of foraging on the enemy, but 1
had to. When the iUlcers went up next
morning to examine the room ii took a long
time to find the hole. Those Yankees had
cut a hole about a foot square through the
floor, ami it was ilnno so neatly that it took
good eyes to discover it. That was whore
the officers' yams went to."

JtTE.?One of the most promising new
fields for fanning in the Southern States is 'J
the cultivation of jute. As a fiber it is
largely taking the place of flux and hemp
in coarse products, and it is also said to be
much used in much finer goods,some of the
handsomest carpets being partly of jute.?
'1 here is no doubt hut the demand is to be
large an 1 to steadily increase.
lute is as easily raised as corn, aud planted
in March oi April, it may be harvested
in June, July and Asgust, after cotton has
been laid, and at a time when there is no
special call upon the farm force. The labor
of cultivation is light, as its growth is so (
rank as to overshadow everything else in
tlie fitdd, and its yield is simply enormous.
There is a very wide field of industry iu \
jute cultivation, and one which will eventually
