PUBLISH Kl) KVKUY TUESDAY. NUBCUI"Tlo\ ?l.r.o PER YEAH BILL ARP IN THE GARDEN.I He i? Successful In liaising Flue Veg* ' otablee?A flood Farmer Will Bavo a Goud Qardeu. " Futo cannot harm mo?I have dined to-day." That is tho way wo feel just after dinner, especially if wo have earned it?worked for it bodily ( and wauted it. But I have heard folks day they were never hungry and not even the odor of cucumbers and CnioitS in the dining room would excite ti eir appetite. 1 have heard others say they had the appetite, but were afraid to indulge it because of Indigestion. Such folk:] are to be pitied. They have my sympathy. But 1 sincerely believe that work or physical exercise i9 a remedy for both. 1 suppose tnat Shakespeare suffered in this way, for bo says, "Now, let digestion wait on appetite aiid health on both.'' Certain it is Iii? death was sudden und prema ture, for ho lived only fifty ryeurs. Milton understood this trouble, too, for he says that Adam's sleep was sweet, being bred from pure digestiou. That's the secret?working in tho garden?I inherited that trait from the old man? Adam, I mean?and I sleep sweetly, too, after 1 have worked in my garden. There is no insomnia about me, but Mrs. Arp suffers from it sometimes when I am snoring liko a hippopota mus. I was ruminating about the value of a good garden to the family?we had an excellent dinner to-day, and I couutod up tho cost. Wo have live in the family, and the dinner cost us only 5 cents apiece, and there was enough left for two or three more. Wo had a small piece of middling meat, about half a pound, that was boiled with the beans, and there were seven different kinds of vegetable., from my garden. The butter and buttermilk were home made. The rice anil cornmoal and huckleberries cost a little?not much. Everything wa? well-cooked, and all that was wanted was an appetite and good digestion. 1 am reasonably proud of ray garden, for it is all my own work. 1 prepared tho ground and dressed it and opened tho furrows and planted the seed and cultivated tho plants and killed tho weeds, and it is my especial pleasure to watch everything as it grows, and gather tho vegetables and wash them at tho back door and call the good wife and children out to see them and listen to their compliments. We have had a Jong drought, but I bad fortified hgainst it. Every hill was lirst spaded out a loot deep and filled with water, and it had soaked into the ground I tilled up the hole with a mixture of top soil and barnyard scrapings and sifted ashes and put on some more water. Every furrow 1 opened for beans and peas and beets I let water run in it, and then put tho fertilizer in and planted the seed. I had eighty holes to dig for tomatoes and forty for squashes, and as many moro for cu cumbers, and notwithstanding tho drought everything has grown vigor ously. It is hard work and takes pa tience to lay tho foundation in this way, but it pays. My squash vines cover a space of four feet spuare to each hill, and my tomato plants aro flvo feot high and full of healthy fruit. Well, now to tell tho whole truth, I havo a hydrant in tho center of the garden and when the dry, hot weather was at its worst I opened small tronoh oa close by the roots of the plants and turned the water on and let it run slowly and soak in and afterwards covered the trenches witli dry dirt. This, too, is trouble, but it paid well. Somo folks sprinklo, but that does harm and no good. It bakes tho surface and never reaches tho roots?sprinkle nothing but g'.iss. Whero water Is plonty and conv< nient there is no ox cuso for a poor garden. It is better to dig deop aud fertilizo and cultivato a i square rod well than U* skim over half mr an acre v^Kur fashion anu .see n m all dry up when the dry drought, at V Cobo calls it, comes. Tho intensive system is tho best for garden I know from long experience. It made mr sad to seo tho crops on the railroad ? botween Marietta and Atlanta the othor day. Acres and acres of con: not six inches high and cotton almost invisible. It did look like perishing to death in the nnmo of tho Lord. It is a poor country, I know, but they could sow it down in peas and gradu ally improvo it so that a Georgian wouldn't bo ashamed for travelers to look out of the car windows as they rido through it. It is astonishing how much influence ono good farmer has over tho neigh borhood in which he li*,06. They aro very envious of each other and will try to keep up with the best. 1 hear some say thai their oats crop is a total fail ure, and will not be tit to cut. I see a few acres of oats in a field not far from mo that will mako a good crop. Of course there is something in tho land, but there is more in tho farming. Deep plowing to begin with is abso lutely necessary in farming. I don't moan deep turning, but deep plowing. I know a farmer who always follows tho turn plow with a bull-tonguo in tho same furrow, and he makes good crops whether it rains or not. My good neighbor, Widow Fiolds, has no y<i i ant in her garden, but she always has tho finest garden in tho town, and tho secrot is deop plowing and fertil ising. I can overlook her work from my window, and it excites mo to keep in hailing distance. She has an aero in tho highest stato of cultivation, and will make moro on it than will be made on fifty acres of that land bo'.ow Marietta. Work on tho gardens must not stop. Keep planting successive crops every ten days or two weeks, and havo a frosh supply. A good, large family cp livo wob on an aero for five months in tho year. Raise your own strawberries and raspberries and buy wild berries enough for jam and jolly. Then, if you havo grapes and peaches around, you can live liko a princo and always havo somothing nico for com ^Srpany. A few flowors in tho garden Jpwill holp to mako It attractivo; and Cjay wifo wants all tho old-fashioned herbs, liko sago and mint and balm and thyme and calamus and camomile. 8ho has horso radish enou?.i for a ho tel. Gardening Is tho :'.rst work of which we havo any history, and it is tho most ploasant and healthy of all occu Eatlons. If a man Is a good gardonor 0 will bo a good farmer. As you travel ovorland through tho country you can tell a good farmer by looking at his garden, just as you can toll a good wifo and daughtor by looking at the flowers and vinos in tho front yard. They aro a sign of good tasto and ro tneraent and good housekeeping and oontontinent. Thoy savo doctor bills, for half tho dlsoascs como from dis eased minds?mental mlsory?borrow ing trouble and nursing it. Tho culti vation of flowers la a good tonlo for indigestion. I have noticed that tho people who are most diligent in suoh occupations aro tho least concornod noon i politics and sliver and gold and the next I'residential election. Tho farm and tho homo absorb them, and are a bigger thing than tho spoils of office. The average politician wants something for nothing. As Cobe says, "I fe is just sldewlplng around hunting the orthography of an ofltco," and 1 when ae gets It tho lirst lesson he 1 learns is how to log-roll. He will veto ] tor anybody'* hill if they will vote for < his. You tlcklo mo and I will tickle- j you, is tbn motlo, and thoy call it a compromise of conflicting interests. Congress has at last voted every mem ber a private secretary wlthu$1.20u ?mini}. Merciful heavens '. When will this thing stop ? Now let thorn apply for a reeolver and soil out the coneorn. lint I am Off tho subject, ami will yr< t in a h id frame of mind and have a tit of indigestion: and so I will quit und go to my garden, where 1 am always culm and senate. BILL AlU*. -i? ? ff i - HlSTOItY OF A GOLD P1BOB. Jefferson Davis Had It When He \v*f? Captured in i?o?. Washington Post. it was a noticcablo fact in connec tion with the recent exercises of tbo unveiling and dedicating of the Gen* oral 'Hancock statuo that General Miles, commander in chief of the army, who was in command of the mil itary parade, made a decided change in tiie poi'sonuol of his staff officers for the occasion When tbo war closed General Miles was in command of tho tlrst division of the fciecond Army Corps, which was commanded by General Hancock. Of the bulf dozon otllcors then composing General Mlles's stall, four still survive, aud these were present, to take part in tho statue unveiling ceremonies. One came all the way from North Dakota, another from Michigan, tbo third from Ohio, and the fourth from Now York, and they had not all been together bo fore for twenty-five years. When making up a list of tboso who should .compose bis staff for the occa sion, General Miles paid a very grace ful tribute to his old staff officora by announcing that- as president of the Society of the Second Army Corps and tbo ranking officer under General dan cook, he felt that ho would bo justified in choosing tho fow survivors of Iiis old staff, to the exclusion of bis pres ent staff. As a consequence, General Milos inarched on foot down Pennsyl vania aveuuo with the four members of his former staff at tbo bead of the parade, as they had so often marched or ridden on other far more dangerous occasions more than thirty years be fore. Gonoral Nathan Church, the Michi gan representative of tho quartet of tho old officers, who rose from captain to colonel of the famous Twenty-sixth Michigan, and then to assistant gono ral and chief of staff under General Milos, showed with much pride while in Washington a$5 gold piece that lias a wonderful history. When Gonoral Church's regiment was to bo mustered out in 186;"), General Miles requested 1iho war department to allow htm to re tain his chief of staff in tho service, which request was granted, and for six months after his regiment had gou? home, and until ho declined to remain longer, Gonoral Church was with Gen eral Miles at Fort Monroe, their prin cipal duty being to guard their distin guished prisoner of war, Jefferson Davis. When captured Mr. Davis bad in bis pocket tho gold piece in question aud a Mexican silver dollar. General Church procured other similar pieces aud effected an exchange for the two found in Mr. Da-vis's pocket. Ho re tained tl e gold piece, and gave tho dollar -.o Major IJluck, the Dakota member of the four who woro present at the recent exercises, and who had beon his tent mate. A fow months thereafter Major Black was showing his famous dollar at an evening gath ering, pussing it from one to another, and ho has over sinco mourned for his I lost treasure. General Church, however, had hot ter luck with his gold niece, and while ho occasionally exhibited it to his friends, carried It as a much-prized pooket piece for twenty-five year-, when ho suddenly discovered that ho had unintentionally paid it out instead of another similar piece of money lie carried with it, but to whom ho had not tho slightest recollection. Ho promptly directed the cashier of his bank to day asido any #5 gold pleco bearing tho dato of lfi?T that might pass through his hands in the course of business, thinking there might be pOS I sibly one ehanco in r. million that the i valuable koopsako would siuu i time make Its appearance. Six weeks af terwards an old farmer dropped in and made a small deposit, when the cash ier said to Mr. Church : "Horo! see if tlnl* tho gold piece you are looking for." ti*ook it and was overjoyud to lind the distii.-^'.shing marks he had placed upon tho coo. !>cn it fl/ft loft Mr. Da vis's pocket and l?utWta way into his own. Sinco then the feoious piece has been kept carefully tapped and safely secured against anot^r dis appearance. While In Paris (ivo or six yea,a,r0, General Church was a guest ouov"n ing at the homo of a wealthy brily who had formerly resided in 70W York. In somo way tho hostess hrn. ed that ho had helped to guardfr, Davis while lie was a prisoner of and said, with much apparent satlsK.' tion ? "t have a Mexican dollar t\\ was taken from Mr. Davls's pooket . j that time which I value very highly.' Without betraying tho anxiety he foltj Mr. Church askco '.1100 and whore she obtained it, and was told that it had been presented to tho lato President, Andrew Johnson, while he occupied the white house, and that she being Iiis' near relative, it had fallen to her after President Johnson's death Gen eral Church had no opportunity ior in clination then to explain what ho knew of the old relic, but he has now had an opportunity to personally tell Major Black where his long-lost dollar is, and he, too, may, like General Church, oomo ugaln in duo time into possession of his own. BATTLES Ol<' TIIK CRATER. Tlirlllinif Lxpcrioiiuo of a South Carolina Command in that Fearful Disaster. Hy request of his comrades Capt. C. 0, Hale, .-f Camden, has given tho fol lowing account of the battle of the Crater on the !lOth of July, 1804. At that timo ho was l?\rst Lieutenant of Company A, Regiment S. C. V., commanded by Col. If. L. Ben bow, Elliott's Brlgado, Bushrod Johnson's Division. On the day previous to the explosion we occupied that portion of tho lino which was blown up, at a four gun battery situated on an oiovation, at an angle of tl. breanlworks said to be the noarost point to the enemy's lines. Wo moved to the right tho day boforo just far enough to make room for another Regimout, 22d s. c. v., Col. Fleming, winch occupied tho ground that was bloVfl up. Capt. Shedd, of Pairliold, oil< of the officers or tho 22d Regiment, that was blowu up, ocnoied the turn j position I did tho night be fore tho 1 xplonon. Ho was partially burled on the right edge of tho Crator. lie. crawled out where he hud retired to sleep, fed in with our regiment, barefooted without coat or hat, re mained with in during tho battle, rondorlngall thd assistance ho could, having lout his company in tho explos ion. Adjutant Homing of tho same rcglmont, also rorldorod pood sorvlce, who was a brothorpf the Col., who was burlod In tho explosion. About dawn of Ue 3Uth of July the oxploslon occurred. blow'ng up the battory and tho gretter portion of the 2.'lrd Heglmont, throwing one or two of tho canons over it front of our line ?about fifty feet. , Tho guns wore brought buck and mounted again. This was accomplished by means of a windlass and ropes Over a covered zlgfeag courso whloh Was dug for the purpose, and ho constructed for eon ocalment and protection from tho enemy's fire. At the Hum of the ox loslon I had just started oft to get ammunition for. th? sharp shooters, who had nearly exhausted i tho supply. Tho enemy was prepared I to make a charge immediately after tho explosion during tho oxeftomont ana confusion created thereby. Wo Immediately formed line of battle and held tho enemy In check. As they attempted to cross tho lino at tho crater wo poured volley after volley Into their ranks and drove them back inuj the pit, or crater, which was a protection to them for tho timo, but, when our line of morters in tho rear of our position opened on them, throw ing shells ovor us Into tho orator, they woro awfully slaughtered. They wore hold in check until late iu tho after noon. Our rogiment loavlug no hold ollleers for duty on that day, Capt. Rufus White, of Charleston, was In command. Ho was wounded early in tho early part of tho battle Lieut. Stone, of Choster, was next in command. Ho was also wounded. Tho command of the regimout then devolved on mo, I being tho next ranking ollicor. 1 im mediately ordered a charge, as wo woro exposed to across tiro front and tlauk. At that juncture, wo were re inforced by Ceu. Mahone's Division just in timo to make u simultaneous charge. Wo charged on tho crater on tho right; Mahono on tho loft, where tho enemy had entered our linos. Wo, th i 23rd Kogimout, lost heavily, in cluding three color hearers. Tho next day hostilities were suspended by mutual consent for several hours, in ordor to remove and bury tho dead. Tho two armies formed lino in front of each othor, whilst a detachment lrom each was engaged in removing the dead. Somo of the ollleers met and conversed about tho battlo. The euomy stated, according to offloial re ports, that their loss in killed, wound ed and missing amounted to 5,000. Our loss was about ono-fourth that number, which statement is verified by history. Company A lost heavily, as it was ex posed to a cross lire from front and left Aank. Only 11) men reported for duty aftor the battlo. 1 was ordered by Con. Johnson to tako a surveyor's chain, furnishod by ono of his stalT ollleers, and ascertain tho dimensions of tho orator, and draw a diagram of tho same, Including tho adjacent angle? of tho breastworks, .and report to his headquarters, I did as ordered, but do not now remember tho exact dimensions, which woro about 'M foot in diameter and about 21) or 25 feet deep. Thoro was a lump or ball of clay about 5 or <i feet in diameter that fell in tho crater. It was pierced all around with minnio balls. The soldiers mado quite a number of dirt pipes out of tho clay from the crater as relloks. 1 have ono hero which 1 will exhibit, made by myself, with tho date of the battle carved upon it- "July 30tb, 1864, Crator, ''otersburg, Va." Tho enemy continued to shell the crater every evening for a considerable timo aftor we got in possession of it. Company H, ono of tho companies of our regtuiont, which had no command ing ollicer, occupied that portion of tho lino on the outsido of the breach, with a temporary breastwork thrown up. I was ordered to take command of this company during tho time it was stationed at this place. The enemy commenced shelling soon after 1 took command, I ordered tho men not to expose themselves, but sock protec tion as best they could from the shells and cannon balls as the enemy was out of reach of small arms and wo could olTcct nothing: 1 and ono of the soldiers would keep on tho lookout as sentinels. During tho time of sholliog one struck tho breastworks about a foot or two below the parapet and threw up a por tion of tho top of the breastworks, which feil upon my head. Another exploded just over and in the rear of where 1 stood. The firing soon after ceased for tho day.

COTTON SEIZED AND SOLI). Twelve Million Dollars In tho Na tional Treasury Belonging to Pri vate Citizens. Twelve million dollars are in tho treat ury awaiting tho claims of right* fu owners?men whoso cotton was seized after tho war. The prosecution of these claims is barred by a statute of 1 imitations specially passed, and ono of the measures that was prepared but not pressed at the present session of Congress was a bill for the repeal of the limitation act. Three Now Volm ers, one said to be tho largest cotton broker in tho world, aro back of tho scheme, and will press it at tho next session of Congress. After tho close of actual hostilities in 1865 cotton was seized throughout the South and sold. Secretary Chase was doubtful of tho right of the govern ment to do this, and the st me doubt rankled In the mind of William K. Chandler, at that time acting secre tary of tho treasury'and now a Senator from Now Hampshire. The doubt was so strong in Mr. Chandler's mind that ho would not use the proceeds of tho salo, but organized a division in the treasury department which he called tho " Division of Abandoned Property and Lands," which is still in existence Ho then turned all of the proceeds of seized property consisting of about 35,000 bales of cotton, great quantities of tobacco, sugar and rice, together with some turpentino, tar and rosins, over to William L. Noerr, chief cf the now division. In 1874 Gazaway B. Laruar, a high Ofttolal in the New York Hank of Com merce, a Georgian by birth and a coin mission merchant, retained tho late General Benjamin F. Butler and ex Attorney-Geueral George H. Williams as his counsel in a suit against the United States to recover $000,000, tho proceeds of the sale of cotton taken by United States troops. When La mar secured his verdict of (000,000, Robert C. Schonok. of Ohio, late Minister to tho Court of St. James, was chairman of the committee on ways and means. Believing that a raid would bo made on the treasury by holders of claims, he introduced a bill creating a statute of limitations, thus barring tho prosecu tion of this class of claims. In this way the money has remained in tho treasury. It has beeu invested in tho United Statos bonds, and now amounts to 'tho enormous 9iun of $12,000,000. Outsido of lour or live Southern Senators, it is doubtful if any one knows the true situation. The legislation which the New Y'ork syndicate wants passed is very simple. It consists of a live line resolution re pealing the 8tatuto of limitations against these claims, and allowing them to be sent to tho United States Court of claims for adjudication.

Gov't Report The New Photography. Indepondont. Lust year was made notable in science by the discovery in Knglnnd, by Lord lhiyleigh and Professor Ramsay, of two new and extraordi nary elements, argon and helium. The new year is already made simi larly notable by the discovery by a German physician, Dr. Roentgen, of strange properties of a new sort of ether waves analogous to light, which will pass without obstruction through many metals, and t hrough flesh, just as ordinary light pusses through glass or water. The first announcement was of its use in pho tographing the bones of the living body, showing the skeleton, aud thus indicating its great probable usefulness for medical and surgical diagnoses. A photograph will very likely tell a surgeon just what inter nal parts are diseased, and will save all exploration with the knife. It would have located the bullet that killed President Gar field, which the probe could not lind. Of course the immediate uses of the discovery were the lirst to at tract attention, but these are not what we are now concerned with. We are rather interested to learn what is the meaning of this new instrument of research, and what information it bus to give as to the constitution of matter and force. That was the chief importance of the discovery of argon and helium, and this new discovery will be of immense importance in the same way. We have very little exact informa tion as yet, for the discovery was announced as soon us made ; but we are told that the light is that of Crooke's tubes. Crookc's tubes are a refined and improved form of the Geissler tubes which are very famil iar to the older students of electrici ty. They are glass tubes out of which the air, or other gas, has been exhausted so us to leave a nearly perfect vacuum. An electric cur rent is passed through the lube and a pale, wavering light is seen to till it, as if the electricity passed easily in a diffused form through the va cuum. Specially line fluorescent effects are produced if the tubes are of uranium glass. This current of electricity, or light, may be deflected by a magnet. It has been even sup posed that atoms of the metalic poles are carried through the tube. A peculiar effect of the current is seen about the cathode end, and the light has been called the cathode rays. This light, or current, it bus been known for several years, would pass through a very thin plate of certain metals stretched us a dia phragm across the tube; and one form of the experiment has been to make a window of platinum in the tube and see the light Hume out through it into the air. Now it is suid that it is the light, of these Crookes tubes which is used in the new form of photography. Yet this light appears to work dif ferently from the so-called cathode rays. It posses freely through thick musses us well as thin plates of met al. The bubbles and Haws in a cast ing are shown phoiog/aphically, u the structure of welding of steel so perfeotly made that the line of juncture cannot be discovered with a microscope. The most extraordi nary statement made about, the l?ght is that it is not refracted by a lens, a statement difficult to understand if photographs are taken with it. We are told that the movement of tho waves of this light which may be very far ultra-violet, is purely longitudinal, like those of sound, and not like those of ordinary light. But this again opens new and very curious questions in the nature of ether and its waves, and is likely to give us a new key to the know ledge of the intimate constitution of both ordinary matter and the luminife rous et her. One cannot help raising the ques tion whether this new force which will give a picture of a living man's skeleton, which will photograph the contents of a shut purse or a (dosed chest, may net have some sensitive effect on the human body, and may not account for certain curious phe nomena, hitherto treated with skep ticism, but now coming into the domain of investigation if not of science. Probably not; but we urc now taught again that there may -be about us other powers and mysteries of nature, the clew to which yet awaits the fortunate and skilful student. No one can yet tell us what are atoms, whether they arc simple or complex, what is the ether which carries the waves of light, what is electricity, nor even what makes oxygen unite with hy drogen. Our knowledge of nature is of ii coarse sort; it has to do with masses and is not intimate or ulti mate. We can hardly call ourselves more than bungling masters of na ture, so long as we do not know why sodium gives a yellow linu with the prism, or what is the nature of the electric spark, or why a Ruhmkorff coil will lift an armature, or how the earth pulls an apple down in stead of pushing it up. Some Curious Facts Concern ing Hearing.?An inquiry wad recently made in London as to the greatest distance at which a man's voice could be heard, leaving, of course, the telephone out of consid eration. The reply was most inter esting, and was us follows: High teen miles is the longest distance on record at which a man's voice has been heard. This occurred in the Grand Canon of the Colorado, where one man shouting the name " Bob " at one end and his voice was plainly heard at the other end, which is oighteeu miles away. Lieu tenant Foster, on Parry's third arc tic expedition, found that he could converse with a man across the har > bor of Port Bo won, a distance of (i,(i00 feet, or about one mile and a quarter; and Sir .lohn Franklin said that he conversed with ease at a distance of more than a mile. Dr. Young records that at Gibraltar the 1 human voice has been heard at a 'distance of ten miles. Sound has remarkable force in water. Collation, by experiments 'made in Lake of Geneva, estimated .that, a boll submerged in the sea might be heard u distance of more i than sixty miles. Franklin says that ho heard tho striking together j of two stones in the water half a , mile away. Over water or a surface of ice is propagated with great clear ness and strength. Dr. Hutten re j lates that on a <|uiet part of the Thames near Chelsea he could hear a person read distinctly at the dis tance of l lo feet, while on the land the Same could only be heard at ?fi feet. Professor Tyndall, when on Mont Blane, found the report of a pistol-shot, no louder than the pop I of a champagne bottle. Persons in a balloon can hear voices from the {earth a long ti mo after they them selves are inaudible below.?From Hamper's Hound Table. Queer Republics.?The queer little Italian republic of San Marino, with its square miles of territory und its population of 0,000, lies up in the eastern spurs of the Apennie .Mountains. It is governed by a Grand Council of no, who are elect ed for life, ami two Presidents, one of whom is appointed by the Coun cil, the other elected by the people, j The little republic has an army of 950 men, who are employed only as policemen. San Marino is the only country in the world that prohibits the introduction of the printing press. The city of San Marino, with a population of I Too, is one of the queerest old towns in the world. It has undergone no change in 500 years. This republic began in H?ll. A little bit larger than San Ma rino in population, but six times as large in area, is the republic of An dorra. It lies in a valley of the eastern Pyrenees between France and Spain. It became a free state in HI!). It is governed by a Sover eign Council of x*-I members, elected by the people, and a Syndic, or presi dent, chosen for life by the Council. It. has an army of 1,100 men, and j one big gun planted in the centre of i the republic'. This gun carries a ball twenty miles, and Europe trembles at the thought of it being fired. I'i Andorra, the capital, is the palace?a stone building several hundred years old. Here the Coun cil men meet. The ground floor is the stable whore their horses are kept and fed by their masters them seves.?From Harper's Hound Ta ble. Anecdote of Lincoln.?.lohn Wanamaker, at a dinner party given by the Philadelphia Association of Underwriters, told the following story of Abraham Lincoln: "While at Washington it came under my notice in the PostofHcc Department that Abraham Lincoln in his early life had been postmaster at a small Ohio town, in the changes that took place the office was consoli dated with Salem, and the man twice, wanted for President was for once not wanted for postmaster. Years afterward it was discovered that no sett lenient had reached Washington of the affairs of that little postofllco. A visit was made to Mr. Lincoln and the ease staled, when the always great man rose Who is Will Whitener ? He is ^ Wtter^a^d Shaver, -TT?IN BCNDELLA rl^TEL. from his desk, and walked over to a chest of drawers and took out a bundle of papers among them an envelope containing seventeen dol lars and some cents, the exact sum in identical money of the govern ment safely in keeping until called for. As he handed it over to the agent of the Postoflieo Department, he said: 'There it is. 1 never use any other man's money.'"? Christian Register, THE LAUKENS BAR. 11. Y. SIMPSON. O. 1).
