Having understood that vast number of
persons of Union, Webster and Hopkins
counties, KY, labor under an impression
that they cannot safely visit this city, or
sell their tobacco or other produce here:
this is to notify all citizens of those counties
that neither their parsons or property will
be interfered with ia any way because of
their political opinions. 1t is not the OBJ
Ject OF the Federal Government to Cypress
its citizens, but to defend itself against the
unholy rebellion. Such of them as have
been guilty of overt acts will be held
amenable, and if captured, subjected to the
severe penalties of the law E-

Culture of Tobacco.

The climate of Ohio is adapted to the
culture, and a full moiety of its population
to the consumption of tobacco. We do not
intend to say anything in regard to the
~healthiness or cleanliness of the use of the
weed. but, taking the facts as we find them,
we will say that over $1,000 900 are an
nually paid out by the people of Ohio, to
the other States for tobacco, manufactured
and manufactured. This is in addition
to tie quantity of tobacco raised here,
which is no small amount. In Montgom-
cry county, we believe, there were 1000
600 pounds raised in 1860. This fact of
itself is sufficient evidence thatit will prove
a profitable crop. The average yield per
acre in Connecticut and New York is from
l, loo to 1900 lbs. per acre. The average
price is from eight to fifteen cents per pOuni
in market; the latter figures are for good
"scel leaf" cured in the best manner
The net proceeds per acre in Onondaga
county, New York, are from so to $50;
but the climate is not so favorable there as
here, yet the farmers there consider tobacco
to be a sure and profitable crop. giving bet
ter cash returns than any other. The best
"Havanna" cigars, sent out from New York
as imported, are made from the best Con-
ncctieut and New York seed leaf" wrap
pcrs and good Southern staple" inside.
The culture of tobacco is as simple as
that of Indian corn. 1t needs a warm,
rich, well-drained and mellow soil, and
twenty-five or thirty loads of good, we'll
rotted, barnyard manure should be put on
each acre. The seed must be sOwn on a
bed prepared for the pupose, as soon as the
ground will permit Brush should be
burned on the spot selected for sowing the
seed. And after raking off the ashes, the
seed should be sown while the ground is
hot. Roll the seed hard with a
hand roller, but do not cover it. When
the plants are about three inches high
(about the middle of May,) they must be
transplanted in row three feet and a half
apart. and the plants about two feet and a.
half apart. in the rows. In trans
planting, care must be tikcn to keep the
roots always moist.
Unless the ground is quite damp, a
pint of water must be put on each hill an
hour before the plants are set out. If any
the plants die, their places must be ell
ed as soon as possible. The ground must
be kept clear of weeds by the thorough
use of the cultivator and the hoe. If the
tobacco worms appear, they must be pick
ID off by hand, and fed to. the fowls or
the hogs. As soon as the blossoms ap-

Obituary of q Miser,

We find the following in ar Eastern pa
per. 1t is both interesting and instruc-
tive:
| have been so much struck to-day with
a ease of post norton justice. thatIf cannot
refrain from narrating it, in hope that
some living miser may lay the lesson to
heart. The subject of the following "Obi-
uary' was the son of a poor w~ood-chOpper,
and he died in possession of Sl0,0OO,O 900.
The London Journals, it seems, are not
afraid to to engraye the truth on a mans
tombstone.
The shipping and mercantile interests
were deeply shocked to learn of the sud-
den decease of Mr.. Duncan Dunbar, the
well-known ship owner and merchant
His death took place this morning just
before leaving home for business, at the
moment when his servant was helping
him on with his coat. Mr.. Dunbar vas
the owner of 50 vessels, chiefly of a large
size, and his property of every description
is roughly calculated at upwards of e.
900. 900 sterling. lie was q merchant as
well as 4 shipowner, a Spectator on the
Stock Exchange, as well as in foreign and
colonial produce; a director in several
public joint stock companies; a man firm
aud severe, just and honorable, paying to
the utmost farthing, and eXacting the
same. With all his wealth, he is not
known to have contributed to charitable
objects. Where money was to be made
he was foremost, but while he made much
he lost much. In one article of rice alone,
he, some few years ago, lost 100000, and
the market for that produce has never
BEEN the same as it used to be, since he
went into it. lie was induced to embark
in the speculation, in expectation of the
Crimean- wal lasting for years. Under
this impression he purchased no less than
fine large teak-built ships at Ran
COON, and chartered the whole on his own
account, with the rice referred TO. Re
fore their arrival the war was over; rice,
which previously was selling at very high
prices. at once fell in value, and continued
to do so. the stock on hand was greatly in
excess of the demand, il became unstable
and the loss was extensive. Mr.. Dunbar's
investments in various joint-stock compa-
MES were so large that the prospect of his
shares being thrown upon the market,
has to-day depressed several, particularly
the marine insurance companies. With
abundant means and influence at COM
mand for doing good, he leaves behind
him no lasting or grateful memorial of his
name, occupation and character. Making
money and keeping it was his occupation.
He heared up riches, which he neither
enjoyed himself nor allowed others to, and
not who shall scatter them. In a
few words, he was a man of great wealth,
but no heart, and his epitaph might he
written-'He was born: he lived; he died;
he was buried"
This large fortune will fall into the
hands of a few neices, and London will
be all the richer for the mean mans death.
It's only a few days since that he said to
a lady who called to enlist his sympathies
n benevolent cause, that it was against
his principles ever to give anything in
charity" Won't he feel small when call
ell upon TO give an account of his stew
ardship?" f II.

Uncle Bob Feels Wasnlsh.

Uncle Bob is a backwoOds preacher in
Mississippi. provided he hasn't Joined the
Seeesh army and is not of a very amiable
temper. In the summer of 1860 he went
to minister to the spiritual wants of some
~.'brethering" at a rough built meeting
house known by the very classic name Of
Coon Tail" Inspirited by a crowded
house, Uncle Bob turned himself loose in
the most tragic style. He beat, stamped
and vociferated terribly. For sometime
previous the rude pulpit had been unoccu-
pied. Invited by the apparent security
and quiet of the place, a community of mud
wasps had built a nest underneath it. Un-
Gle Bob's peculiar mode of conducting me
service had disturbed the insects; and just
as he was executing one of his most tremen-
dous gestures an enraged wasp met him half
way. and popped bis sting into the end of
Uncle Bob's huge nose. He stopped short,
gave sundry vigorous but Intellectual slaps,
when he heard a half suppressed litter from
some merry youths in a far corner of the
house. Turning towards them with i'll
concealed rage, he exclaimed. mo laugh
ing in the house of God. | allow no
laughing in my meetings. I'll lay out the
first man that laughs as soon as service is
overp' This threat checked the incipient
merriment. Uncle Bob regained his COM
pOsure. forgot the wasps, and soOn warmed
up to q two forty lick. But again, in the
midst of the most imprisoned ~gestIculation
a wasp struck full in the forehead he bow
ed, lodged. and beat the air frantically, un-
til a roar Of laughter rose from the congre-
cation. Uncle Bob looked at them a mo-
ment with mingled feelings of rage and dis
gust, and then shouted, "Meetin's dismiss

you! But as for me, (taking off his coat

One of the s.Memhers.n

A year or two since, a Mr.. B. was elect.
ed to represent the town of Shelburne, n.
h, in the Legislature. He was a plain old
farmer, full of sound sense, and ready for
any real work that was needed. When he
made his appearance at the State House it
must be confessed that his tout ensemble
was anything but fashionable. His hat
was a perfect relic Of antiquity his coarse
frock and trowsers of genuine dapple-gray,
homespun-his shirt bosom the product of
his wife's own loom, and his boots of the
thiekest and most substantial cowhide.-
As Mr.. B. entered the lobby, there were
several young members standing about
the fire. and suppOsing the newcomer to be
only a visitor, they merely cast a glance at
his weather -browned face, turned up their
noses at his yerdant look, and then contin-
ued their conversation. B. took a seat near
the stove.
Ne room here for visitors" said one of
the fippants.

speaker.
