A NEW DISH F0R ~Tock

Uncer this heading the Ameri-
can A grlculturis; gives the lol-
lowing HAT, which should be
borne Ia mitd while making pro-
vision for feeding stock through
the winter:
Il matters little what the new
dish is, only let t be something
new Many farmers seem to
think it enough to provide fodder
sufficient ia bulk to last through
the season. regardless Of Its vari-
ely. Evary winter shows OBJ
serving men that domestic AMI
mails become c!Oved on the best
OF food, it confined too long to
one article. It's so with nap.
He Graves a variety, and he must
have it, if he would continue in
good health. Notice how sea
men, on long voyages, are subject
to attacks Of scuryy or other NAL
aides; and that chiefly because
they are confined TO nearly the
same bill of fare week after
week. Experiments have been
tried on dogs and cats, and other
animals, and it has been found
that they sicken, languish, ana
die, If kept an undue period Oh
one kind oflood. Obviously, the
true course for the farmer is to
lay in both enough and a variety
Of fodder. Hay to succeed stalks.
and then roots to vary that, and
so on. This will carry them safe
ly and pleasantly through the
long confinement of winter.

SLAVERY IN MARYLAxD.-The
Baltimore American closes an
article upon this subject as fol-
lows: Ii there are ang who
think that slavery can exist in
Maryland, after this war is end
ed, as a system OF profitable Ia
Dor, the sooner they open their
eyes to the invincible future the
better for them. To suppose
that after so terrible a conflict as
that through which the loyal por-
ton OF the country have passed,
they will ever consent 10 the ex-
istence Of the cause of the rebel
lion between them and their Ne
tional capital, is simply prepos-
ferrous. Ii the emancipation
proposition is rejected, all that

their recovery. Whether the
slaveholders of Maryland, there

are disloyal, wish ii or not, the

CAPT. fuckers CoNPANY.-This fine company of
cavalry, which has been duty for several months
past on Swift Greek and Tranter's Greek, arrived
here on Friday on a short furlough. We learn
from Capt Tucker that they were sheed twice by
the enemy, while on Tranter's Greek. We learn
also, that the Yankees sent large force some two
or three weeks since, to Swift Greek in Craven,
where they committed all sorts of outrages on the
people. Smokehouses were broken open, houses
searched and robbed, stock killed, negroes driven
away, and unprotected men and women nsulted-
And this too, in the immediate vicincty of Gorer-
nor Stanly. But day of rctribution is coming
Let the Eastern people be firm and hopeful, for the
day of their redemption draweth nigh.

A Gallant Young Officer.

A correspondent of the Charlotte Democrat, writ
ing from Petersburg, giving an account of the part
taken by the 4Sth N. G. regiment in the fight of
the 18th June, near Richmond, thus alludes to
Lieut. Henry NJ Miller. of this City. We are salts
field, from our knowledge of the courage of this
young man, that the correspondent has done him no
more than justice. He is a son of Henry W. Miller,
Esq, of this City
1t would be unjust to omi: in this description
Of the tight the name of the intrepid and gallant
H. NJ. Miller, of Raleigh, N G. He had been acting
as Adjutant for some time in the Regiment, where
he was universal fayorite but had gone home and
returned only day or two before the battle He
dd not belong to the Regiment but acted as Lieu
tenHnt IN one of the companies, part of whose Off
GERS were sick. When some confusion and hesita
on was exhibited by the color bearer in advancing
with the coors and the 1t Colonel about 10 bear
them forward himself, 1t II. NJ. Miller asked per-
mission to carry the colors, which granted and
ne bore them herocay in front up to the very lines
Oh the enemy, and upon the order of Col. Hill and
10 induce the enemy to out Ct cover, he plant
ed them some ten PAGES in front Of our lines, and
told the Colonel that if he wished it. he would stand
by the colors himself When the fight was near clos
ing, Mr.. Miller heard wounded Yankee Just before
nm, crying for water and ran forward and gave
him his canteen, and whilst engaged in this gener-
Gus act Of mercy was fired upon by some Yankee,
and came near being killed The regiment feel Just
~ proud of him, and the country and lis parents
Should know Of his galantry."

G. III. Afford, Esq.

The following Card from the Chalybcate Guards,
of Wake County, speaks for Itself. This company
was raised in Mr.. Affords neighborhood No citi.
zen of The County has done more to raise volun-
teers or to advance the Southern in his neigh
borhood, than Mr.. Afford.
For the Standard.
Mr.. EDITOR We see in the State Journal
charge that G. II. Afford, Esq. has used his infu-
ence to prevent young men from volunteering We
as volunteer company which has been in service,
and now paroled as prisoners of war, now say that
our company was formed partly through Mr. AL
fords instrumentality, and that we were greatly
aided by his means in preparing for the service
We emphatically assert that we believe the charge
against Mr.. Afford to be without foundation. We
regard it as false and ridiculous. The charge is not
only denounced by this company as false, but by
every gentleman in his vicinity.
1t is to be deplored that such vile charges are
preferred against our best and most loyal citizens
Mr.. Afford has always been active in the Southern
cause, and has done as much for volunteering, ac-
cording to his means, as any man in the Confed-
eracy. CHALYBEATE GUARDS,

Our Wounded Soldiers.

From number of reliable sources we learn that
many of our wounded North Carolina soldiers are
dying in Richmond from various causes. The in
temperance and neglect well as the incompetency
of many of the Confederate surgeons-the immense
number huddled together superinducing erysipelas
and hospital grangrene and other diseases, and the
lack of vegetables, and suitable food and nursing,
are destroying pur brave men. The Richmond peo-
pie and ladies especially doing their utmost but
what can they do with so many? Gov Clark very
properly urged the authorities to send our sick and
wounded to this State to be taken care Of DR..
johnson, our Surgeon General proposed to provide
for them atsundry points the State, and Dr. Haw-
kins the President of the R. & G. Railroad offered
to run trains night and day to bring them on, and
yet seems the Confederate Surgeons in authority
turned deaf ears to them. Drs. Johnson, and E. B.
Haywood of this City, DR.. Manson of Granville,
DIR. Thomas of Wilmington, and many other ply
scians of this State have been doing ali they could
but many of the poor fellows who might have been
saved if brought home, have fallen victims

presses that the Standard is enemy to the Char
lotte and Columbia Railroad or that it has objected
to the people of redell and Meckcnburg joining in
constructing the Railroad from Charlotte to States.
vile. 1t is natural that the people should seek an
outlet to market and if they could not do any bet
ter, that they should patronizc a Road with the
South-Carolina guage; but the point to which we
have called the attention of readers is that Mr.
Johnston, who is seeking to be Governor of the
State, is the author of this five foot project and has
shown, by his acts, that he prefers the ports of
South Carolina to those oc his own State Why
did he not advocate track from Charlotte to States
vile with the North Carolina guage9 Such track
would have poured the produce from the Iredell
county to Wilmington, instead of to Columbia and
Charleston.

Johnston County.

We learn that the tickets before the people Of
Johnston for the Legislature are as follows: For the
Senate, c. B. Sanders, Esq. For the Commons,
Seth G. Woodal and W. H. Avera, Esquires These
gentlemen are conservative and reform candidates.
orthe Senate, j. W. B. Watson Esq. For the Com
mons, W. H. Watson and B. H. Tomlinson, EsqrS.
These gentlemen constitute the secession ticket
We understand that in the discussion at Clayton
on Saturday last Mr.. Tomlinson assailed the Stan
dard and spoke of the Standard party. Mr.. Tom
EnSon is mistaken. The Standard has no party,
except the party Of the people. Mr.. Tomlinson, We
learn, would like to pass for Democrat and an old
Union man. lie is neither. He has deserted both
the Old Union men of Johnston and the old Jackson
Democracy. We know what we say, for we taught
Mr.. Tomlnson nearly all the Democracy he ever
knew
We learn that Mr.. w. II. Watson honestly an:
nounced himself an original secessionist Very
well, let the people of Johnston say whether they
want man to represent them who was active in
breaking up the government and bringing on war.
Mr.. j. W. B. Watson is "sorter So" and "sorter
not so but rather "sorter So" He refuses to say
who ne is for for Governor He is no doubt for
Johnston. Notice his vote, fellow-ctizens and see
II we have not guessed correctly. Mr. Watson pro-
teSSes to be conservative but he has made his bed
with the destructives and must take the conse-
quences
We learn that the best grounds exist for count
Ing on the election of Messrs. Sanders, Woodall,
and Avera, by large majority, and that Vance will
sweep the County. We appeal to our Johnston
friends to exert themselves for the conservative
ticket Our opponents are active and full of
schemes. We must meet them at every point. Let
efforts
