A Singular Financial Trouble.

There is singular report of some
financial troubles of q very remark
able sort among the Southern mer-
chants. When they seeded and re-
pudiated they expected to keep all
that they did not pay to Northern
creditors. To their astonishment and
CONSERVATION they are now put upon
oath, required to disclose what they
owe at the North, and to pay the
amount over to the rebel Treasury un-
der the Representation" act. They
had bargained for private emolument,
not for public gains, and this demand
drives them into close quarters. In
Nashville they are reported to have
had a merchants meeting, to beg of
the Confederate Government the priv
ilege of turning over to its officers the
amount of Northern debts in "good
paper" made by their country Gus
toners. May the Confederate Govern
ment accept the offer and try its hand
at collecting that paper |

HJames Buchanan has written q
letter to Union meeting of the citizens
OF Chester and Lancaster counties,
Pennsylvania, which for sublimity Of
impudence is unequalled by any thing

knowledge of how much he personally

sal of the letter. it seems to us passing
strange, thst he should presume to put

timents, and can account for it only on
the ground that he feels his personal Sc
curity in danger, and that some such
step is necessary, 10 induce the honest
citizens of that region to tolerate his
presence amongst them.

ANOMALY IN THE CABBAGE LINE
From a cabbage stock remaining in the
ground after the cabbage had been cut
of, lying horizontally some few inches
beneath the surface, grew some three
dozen sprouts. After getting to be oI
good cabbage plant size, they were re-
moved from the mother stock and set
out. Not root branch was to any o.
them, Notwithstanding they grew and
produced as fine large cabbage as have
been grown in any season. A speci-
men is now left with us by Gen. NEW
som. This was an accidental discovery
and it will be an advantage TO those de-
string to have early cabbage. They
headed and were at full maturity as
soon as early yorks. The stock is of
the drumhead species.

RAtt the BEGINNING of this ua,

~At the beginning of this war, nc
State in the Union was so badly prepar.
ed for it as Ohio. Without a militia
system of any kind, or a body of uni.
formed volunteers, her resources for
placing an effective force in the field
were nextto nothing. Whilst Massacbu.
sets and Pennsylvania, had a system
of uniformed volunteers, ready at mo-
ments call, to bring to the field, armed
and equipped, our great State of Ohio
was without either. Her young men
were unskilled in the art of war, many
never having seen a company of volun-
teers until called on to form a part of
one themselves.
The officers had also to learn the bu-
siness. Many were taken from countino
houses, Offices, and railroad stations
directly into camp. and from luxurious
living, to subsisting on pork and beans.
1t was therefore to be expected, that
many would fail in properly discbargine
their duties. and the wonder is, so few
were found wanting in the essential
qualities Of the soldier. The people
were willing to pass over delinouencies

By Order.

A COOP STMILE.--The Hon. Joseph
Holt. in his speech at Boston, said:
"The dismembermer of the Union
involved the sbasement Of all that Of
which, as Americans. we feel proud,
which we have received as an inheri-
tance from our fathers, and which we
are bound to transmit unimpaired to
our posterity. When the wise man of
old, sitting upon the rival claim of two
mothers to child, decreed that the
child should be cut in twain, and one
portion given to each, it was the false
mother who exulted at the judgment,
while the true mother turned horror
struck, preferring to leave her offspring
in the hands Of an enemy rather than
have it destroyed. The man who is
willing that his country should be
divided by the sword OF treason may
have been born in America but he can
not have an American heart"

ton o. the people, This is no doubt
partly owing to the fact, that men best
qualified for military positions. are gen.
orally best qualified for those in civil
life. and consequently engaged mac
tive business, whilst the idle, indolent,
and those incompetent to transact the
most ordinary business affairs. find room
in the vast crowds now thronging, not
into the ranks. but into tbs Offices con-
nected with the army. "Fools rush in
where angels fear to tread" and the
man who possesses q sufficient amount
of brass and impudence. is too often
successfulin his application for posts Of
profit or honor. whilst the modest, wor-
thy and capable man is rejected. We
see this every day around u.s., The pa
pers are filed with complaints OF the
ineficiency Of our army officers. and the
Federal Government has not been more,
II indeed as successful in her selections
as the State.

we shall not screen the guilty OF incom-
