uTThc Western Missourian, published at indie
pcndence, Mo-, says that farmer in that vicinity
has exhibited in that town specimen of waterro-
ted hemp, Of this years growth, which excels spc-
cimcn of that grown in Russia, left 10y an agent OF
the Navy Department, being about two feet longer,
and the lint of finer, softer texture and of greater
strength. The same paper boasts of having seen
stalk of hemp, raised in that vicinity measuring IA
feet. We have, in our garden, stalk Of the same
length, SO we infer that our soil and climate arc as
well adapted to the growth of hemp as Missouri,
where large quantities of it are raised, and large
profits derived from its culture.

inc military chieitains for services rendered thcif

The field he deserved the Presidential Chair as re-
ward. what is due to the hero of Lrndys Lane and
the gallant defender OF Fort Stephenson If we
were so much Gen. Harison's debtor ior his achieve
ments as the Wings were wont to make us believe
should not cur surviving heroes be paid double
share Of glory, inasmuch as we have nothing that
will buy bread to spare them! With what neglect
do our Wing friends treat our heroes, since their
end has been accomplished! Not word has been
said by the Wings, since the last Presidential cleo
fion about rcwarding heroes, the virtues nstlllcd
into the mind by wearing epaulctts, save when they
sought to add strength to the Wing cause in the use
az the name of Gen. Sect as candidate tor the
Presidency If they sincerely believe our heroes to
such mexitorious people, deserving OF such rewards
why do they not involve the principle in the contest
while Mr. Clay is the candidate, the same as that OF
National bank, high Tariff, and the Distribution
Bill? The reason is plain. They would honor
heroes and soldiers only when their political pnnci-
pies can be advanced by it.
