LET Us De PATIENT.

We suppose that the several divisions

well-equipped, and we'll provided for in
every respecs-ss well equipped and - we'll
prepared as they ever viii be. Up very
recent period, however, they have not been
in this condition and . general advance
would have been hazardous in high degree
and, consequently, imprudent. But this,
We trust and believe, is passed, There does
not seem to be any tangible necessity for :
longer delay, and We have great confidence
that there will be nome. The desired result
may not take place in week-it may not in
. month. This matters not. 4 few days
or few weeks in deciding such matter -
this rebellion amounts to nothing. Itshould
be disposed Of soon. In the hope that it
will be-that the government army will be
gloriousiy INDICATED in the suppression Of
the rebellion ere many weeks; let a. still
exercise the divine quality Of patience. Let
Us wait STEW days." or "few week.
indeed, let Us be patient 90 long - our

LOVE OF A SHAWL.

At the last levee at the White House Mrs.
Lincoln wore lace shawl, presented to her
by A. 7. Stewart, Of New York, which cost
81, 500.-Er.
So it is, Mrs. Lincoln wears 81, 500 shavls,
while our poor Misses are giving their last
dime to aid the poor soldiers. We wonder
how much money Stewart has given the Sol
der aid Society. Bugie.
And so, because A. T. SrrwARr presented
Mrs. LINCOLN with a shawl, and she wore it
on certain occasion, our poor Misses should
not give anything to aid the poor soldiers.
Because Mrs. BABBrrr, or some other wo-
man wears an elegant silk dress, therefore
no other woman should give dime to the
Soldiers Aid Society. Sound logic, truly
Worthy emanstion from the great brain Of
BABBITr!
At. STEWART has given literally to Sol
dier's Aid Societies, and to the support Of
the Government. Wonder how mech BAB.
BIT has given?

Colonel Johnston, then connected with the

follows:
l would, in conformity with the views
also OF the commanding General, on all
proper occasions, have manifested in my 10.
tereourse with them spirit Of Cancellation,
but do not believe such consideration for

ment will allow Of the slightest CONCESSIONS

They should be made to submit to the
constitutional and legal demands Of the
Government Internationally. An adjust
ment Of existing difficulties on any other
basis would be migratory.
Their threat to oppose the march Of the
troops in the spring will not have the slight
ess influence in delaying it; and II they de-
sire to join the issue, believe it is for the
interest Of the Government that they should
have the opportunity.

As the road to poor farming IL not go
orally understood, though il 10 crowded With
travellers, We throw up the following land
marks, from the Springfield Repsbliesn,
Tor the common benefit:
l. Invest all your capital in land, and sUl
in debt for more.
z. Hire money to stock your farm.
2. Have no faith in your own besinees,
and be always ready to cell out.
4. Boy mean cows, spawned horses, poor
Oxen, and cheap tools.
S. Feed bog bay, and nouldy eornstalks
exclusively, 10 order to keep your stock
tame; 6ery cattle are terrible hard o. old
ricksty wagons and plows.
6. Use the oil Of hickory freely, Whenever
your oxen need strength; It 10 cheaper than
hay or meal keeps the hair lively, and
pounds out the grubs.
!. Select such calves for stock % the
butchers shun; beauties OF runss, thin iu
the hams, and pot bellied; bus be sure and
keep their blood thin By soanty herbage;
animals are safest to breed from that have
not strengh to herd.
9. Be cautious in the manufacture Of
manure it makes the fields leok black and
mournful shout planting time; besides 10 u
deal Of work 70 haul IL.
9. Never waste time in setting out fruit
and shade trees; fruit and leaves sotting q
round q place make il unhealthy.
