Fuel.

1t is common mistake among farmers to
burn wood the same year it is cut. Two
cords of dry wood will give m1re heat than
three cords IN an uDseasoned state.
When the moisture in the burning wood
is being evaporated, it has the power of
taking up heat; its own bulk is increased
one five -hundredth part for every degree of
heat added, and it travels up the chimney
or stove pipe with the heat. If wood be
cut two years before its use, it will be
found much more economical all the heat
will be radiated in the room, or at least a
very much larger portion than when it is
accompanied by moisture
When under steam boilers, green wood
will not make steam, at least in the boiler
for the heat is used in converting the water
of the wood itself into steam; it passes
through the flues into the chimney, with
out heating the boiler.
1t is true not only of wood, but also in a
degree of coal, especially bituminous coal.

CONGRESSIONAL,

The only business of Importance in the
Senate on Thursday, was a resolution of
GARRET DAVIS, of Kentucky, remandipg
Gen. S. B. BUCKNER to the civil authorities
of Kentucky for trial, and sustained it in q
speech, showing that Gen. BUcKNER is an
arch traitor. The effect of the passage of
this resolution would be to prevent any
more exchanges since the rebels insisted
upon BUcKNER as requisite, and argued that
he was opposed to the con6nipg of hundreds
of our officers in rebel dungeons, merely to
crafty a personal feeling against one rebel
no worse than others. MIR. BROWNING
argued the same views. The resolution
went over, with no prospect of its passage.
1t was intimated that no trials would take
place until the rebellion was over.
In tae House, the 3l4 amendments made
hy the Senate to the tax bill, were rejected
by eighty against ifty-eight.

Another Recantation.

The former editor CT the Shebyville
(Tennessee) EGpositor, strong secession
newspaper, publishes card in which he
frankly acknowledges that he has been mis-
taken, and that the best thing for all Ten.
nesseans to do is to render the Federal
Union allegiance, not only from the lips. but
from the heart. He says:
Like hundreds and thousands of Others
residing in Tennessee, ] was led to believe
the calling out of troops by Mr.. Lincoln
was an evidence OF his determination to
overthrow the institution of slavery. And
thus thinking, l thought it my duty as a
Tennessean, as a man born here, as man
whose interests were all identified with the
Southern people, to resist him. In this l
now see that l was mistaken. l see also
that the attempt to form Southern Coned,
eracy has proved complete failure. And
for these reasons | regard it as the duty of
every man residing in Tennessee to hasten
back to his allegiance, and claim the protec-
ticn represented by the Stars aud Stripes
of the American Union.
