THREE CHEERS FOR eAss AND RUTBER

preached Memphis, ION the Mississippi Colonel Black
was hailed from the shore, and asked II himself and
the State of Pennsylvania The Colonel answered
6 yes,' when the same voice desired them as the
boat got near to the town to respond to call tor
cheers for Gen. Taylor with all their pow er, Black,
who is great wag, said nothing, and the worthy on
shore went ahead to prepare his friends for the lay
lor cheers from the Pennsylvania Volunteers. The
boat came on-the Wings were intensely anxious
and the Democrats, who did not know what was com
ing, merely patriotic and curious. The cry from the
shore was Is three cheers for Taylor, and they wore
given by the Feds on shore, but not a soul on the
boat responded, until to the amazement of the poor
Wings, right up from the crowded decks OF the stea-
mer, burst the clear musical voice of Black, with
cry of g three cheers for Cass and Butler! OF his
four hundred and twenty men, more than four hun
dred joined in shout that made the adjacent hills
reyerberate as with the sound, Of cannon There
was not much Wing Joy in Memphis that night!
So much for Federal sanders on the Yolunteers!7

clutch the spoils, which they affect much to dee
pise and among other clap traps, they have reported
their candidate to induce the tconscence" Wings,
who are disposed to hold off, to yield Gen. Taylor
their support. But there was letter received here
this morning by member Of Congress- from Henry
Claws own hand, which puts an ektihgaisheF upon
this report and shows to the non-ultra Wings that
there is big screw loose. In this letter Mr.. CIay
says, that the report put in circulation that he had
endorsed the nomination Of Gen. Taylor is not true,
that he had not authorized any man, orally or BY
written statement, make such an assertion, and
that his own selfrespect forbade it,. OF this letter
though marked private, the did nothes

The following circumstance actually occurred in Dublin a short time back. Mr. L-----was much attached to Miss C--, the young, beautiful and accomplished heiress to a property fl some fifteen thousand per annum; but being himself lord cf no other earthly possession than talents and good looks, he never told his love fearful only of refusal the part o the lady to reciprocate the senii- ment, but of proabe impuiaiion of marcenary lives by her friends. Miss C---. however. had sufficient penetration to discover tho genuine, and disheTeSled affection of the swain, and the highly praiseworIhy seusitivcness which caus-d him to shEiHk f. om its avowal. She was by no means in- dispos-d to encourage his l. but the consci oi his comparative poverty rendered more than tne ordinary encouragement gwen by lady 10 her suiior necessary 10 stimuiat- his courage 10 pro- pound the decisive injury.

Sailing and Cnring Hay.

Editors Of the Albany CuLtiOatOr;
In THE January number of the Cultivator, |
find some remarks of yours on sailing hay for
stock, which are something different from my
views of the subject.
Your statement that salt may be properly used
to prevent damp hay from being damaged, does
not agree with my experience on the subject
as far as have observed the salt increases the
dampness, and should be sparingly used on wet
hay as well as dry. Most farmers, in the hurry
of the hay-making season, are apt to house toe
much of their hay, in green, damp state, and
use salt so profusey as to njure it, and the stock
that consumes it. Stock need but little salt in
winter, and more than to make their food palata
BILE, must have contrary effect, and be eaten
from necessity rather than choice
My practice is to cure my hay properly anc
put two quarts of fine salt to a ton, taking care
to have the Jumps we'll puverized. Curing hay
in the cock is the only right way, though mos
farmers are slow TO believe it, and many have
condemned the practice because they have moi
patience to wait long enough, know of no 9th
er way to cure clover without serious loss
Yours, &c. d. S. Curtis
