Remarks on kinds Of Garden Sauce.

In 1851 the Commissioners of Pat
ents distributed in the several States a
number of kinds of cabbage, the best
Of which are the drumhead or fat
dutch and the dwarf drumhead. They
are the two best varieties now in the
country. The first grows very large
and is very hard headed, and by far
the richest cabbage / ever tasted.
This kind should be set three feet apart
each way as they have great spread
of top A great many are raising it.
The dwarf drumhead are about the
size of the early York, take up about
as much room and are'quite as ear
H. The heads are round and in APP
pearance they are picture of the large
drumhead. These two kinds are the
only cabbages / would advise to cult
vate.
Of all kinds of lettuce the Frankfort
or head lettuce is the most profitable
Kind. The heads will grow if there is
Sufficient space between them, to the
size of an early York cabbage head.
But little of this is necessary for meal.
In selecting seeds be sure and get the
best varieties, and when once you have
them never allow your supply to be-
come exhausted.
sa New beds of large pie plant, &C.,
should be put out every year. 1t is
cheaper to raise young sage every sea-
son, than to be obliged to gather sup
ply from old sage branches in which
there are more or less old trash. Sage
commands a ready sale just before the
butchering season comes at the rate of
so cents to$ 90 per pound. The Lon
don cauliflower when boiled like cab
bage is most delicious dish. decided
ly the most delicious of anything of the
cabbage species. Parsnips for spring
and winter eating should be grown.
They are certainly very conducive to
health. The very best way to cook
them is to boil them the same as pota.

Gen. Pillows Plan,


From the Patriot OF yesterday we introduce to
our readers article from the pen of our distn-
guished feIow-citizen, Gen GIDEON J. Pillow. COM
municating plan matured by him. as a solution of
the present political crisis The views of Gen.
PILLOW are entitled to the highest respect, from
men Of all parties by reason of the frankness with
which they are urged, the substantive action which
they propose on the part Of the South, and the
practical guarantees they suggest for the mainten
ance of Southern rights in the Union. Their author
is known lifelong advocate of State Rights
and a national and true, but not unconditional,
friend of the Union of the States-one of those
men who would preserve the Union by enforcing
the guarantees of the Constitution and demanding
justice and equality from the Government. The
plan may not in all its details meet the exact views
of all the wise men and patriots who have deter
mined on an effort to preserve the Union by per-
manently removing the exciting cause of the seri-
Gus troubles in which we find ourselves involved,
vet we are persuaded that it will be regarded by
men of all parties as a proper move in the right
direction and, if not adopted in its entirety, it may
prove the basis of a plan upon which Tennessee
may rally her conservative influence. 1t is now
idle to talk about the preservation of the Union,
without a fresh and full understanding with
the Northern States. The man who would
heal the wounds that now in1ame the Confed-
eracy, but dalies with the question, if he
expects to gain his end by mere empty laudation of
the Union, by equally as senseless and yet more
mischievOus denunciation of the Southern seceders,
as disunionists and traitors. Such tactics may do
for political campaign, but will prove vain and
foolish at a time when the people maSSs are
aroused to the idea Of redressing their wrongs,
curing their safety and indicating their rights with
the spirit of freemen. The disease requires more
active, if not more desperate remedy. Hence we
think il the duty Of men of intellect and patriotism
TO cast into the common their share of thought
and mind, that we may see our way through the
thick clouds and gloom now overhanging US. Let
this be done in spirit Of candor impartialty and
patriotism and with determination 10 leave out Of
view the petty schemes Of partnership, and the
country can then form a clear and unbiased Judg-
ment upon its duty in this trying emergency. has
seemed 70 us that the chief difficulty in coming to
that unanimity Of sentiment, important at this
time, is the preiudces and animositics Of party.
What are parties to US. What politicians? What
are all the offices in the land compared to the over
whelming interests at stake? dissolution of the
Government will obliterate all these and it to pre-
vent the loss honor and Of right on the one hand
and the distraction Of the Government on the other
that we are now Contending.
