troops in that city:
Indiana has won golden opinions from
every man in Memphis. The rsnkes; Sc
ce.sionis, comedies TO her brave sons, as
represented in the troops now occupying
the city, oil the high qualities Of true sold
lers and good men. Their orderly march

drag OF their military "predecessors''-ths

their department while on duty elicits the
hiyhes, enconiums from men long accus
toned to the rule of Confederate rufians-
Compared with the valiant defenders of the

State. the flower Of the Southern chivalry is
band of lawless ragamufhus that old Jack
Fllstsff would be ashamed to lead through

ET G. p. Serviss, of Glen. Montgomery
county, n. Y, has been experimenting with
potatoes to a considerable extent, and writes
to the Country Gentleman. in confirmation
of previous statements, the following:
l had. in 1861, about quarter of an acre
of June potatoes. planted on yellow loan
ground. They grew finely and had far ad-
vanced to maturity, when discovered their
tops began 10 be diseased. l Immediately
took scylhe. cut off the tops OF all the
rows, excepting two near the centre OF the
piece One of the latter left in the state
nature formed it. The other. / pulled the
tops by hand. leaving the tubers in the
ground. Now for the result. At digging
time in the fall found the tubers in those
rows that had their tops cut off and the row
that hal its tops pulled of of equal s;ze.
and as near l could Judge had an equal
number of rotten tubers in a row. and they
were but few. The row that was left as ma
lure formed it, had about fou. times as many
rotten tubers as either Of the rows that had
their tops cut off, or the one that had its
tops pulled off by hand. Not only that,
but the tubers that we're not injured were
no longer than the tubers were in the former
rows: thus showing conclusisely that they
had not grown any after their tops became
diseased, and that it would have been better
to have cut their tops, thereby checking the
disease before it extended to the tubers.
Some farmers recommend digging imme-
diately ai:er the tops begin to show signs Of
the disease. But | prefer cutting their tops
and leaving the tubcrs in the ground till
quite late in the fall, for two reasons. First,
they keep their favor better than they would
if exposed to the air. Second. there are
sometimes tubers that have been inocula,ed
with The disease. which cannot be discovered
if dug Immediately. and if put in the cellar
or in heaps in this way; will cause the de-
struction Of many tubers that were free
from disease at the time Of digging.

% The following beautiful extract is
taken from an address delivered some years
since by the Hon. Edward Everett:
"The man who stands upon his own soil
who feels that by the laws of the land in
which he lives-by the laws of civilized IA
tons-he is the rightful and exclusive own
er of the land which he tills, is by the con-
stitution Of our nature under wholesome
influence. not easily imbibed by any other
source. He feels, other things beire equal,
more strongly than another. the character
Of man who is the lord Of an inanimate
world. or this great aud wonderful sphere
which. fashioned by the hand Of God, and
upheld by his power, is rolling through the
heavens, a part Of his-his from the centre
to the sky. Il is the space on which the
generation before him moved in Its round Of
duties, and he feels himself connected by a
visible link with those Who follow him, and
to whom he is to transmit a home. Per
haps his farm has come down to him from
his fathers. They have gone TO their last
home, but he can trace their last footsteps
over the scenes of his daily labors. TIE
roof which shelters him was reared by those
10 whom he owes his being. Some inter-
es,ing domestic tradition is connected with
every inclosure. The favorite fruit tree
was planted by his fathers hand. He
sported in boy hood beside the brook which
still winds through the meadows. Through
the fields lies the path TO the village school
of earlier days. lie still hears from his
window the sound of the Sabbath bell which
called his fathers to the house of God near
at hand is the spot where his parents laid
down TO rest, and where. when his time has
come, he shall be laid by his children. These
are the feelings OF the owners Of the soil!
Words cannot paint them; gold cannot buy
them; they flow out of the deepest fountains
of the heart: they are the life springs OF q
fresh, healthy. and generous national char
acter."

The situation at Cumberland Gar.

The situation at Cumberland Gap.
A letter from the correspondent Of the
Cincinnati Commercial dated the 18Th,
represents the position Of the force under
Gen. Morgan as extremely critical The
rebels appear to have enYironed the Gap,
and cut off supplies and reinforcemnts.-
Their piokets extend within two miles Of
the Gap. A detachment of cavalry had
been cut in pieces, and more disastrous re-
suits had been anticipated, as the enemy
was constantly receiving reinfOrcements.
The determination was to hold the position
at all hazards, and never surrender; br
there is no binding the fact that nothing
but the greatest vigOr and prOmptitude in
sending reinfOrcements and opening com
municatiOn with the Gap can save the he
roic army and one Of the strongest posi-
tiOns on the Tennessee border. We have
reason to hope that such measures are be-
ing taken as will save both, and result in
the defeat Of the rebels.
