Betsy kolter Oh Legal Tender.
(From tho Logan. (o9 GaIs::e,)

MEssRs. EpIToRs-I concluded to write
up to you 10 print some Legal Tender fu-
me. I've had such bad lucl. Of late, and
been 50 much fiusterated 70 make change
for the peddlers when they come to buy
my produce that thought ! would g,
some currency of my own. But before
tell you the kind want, must inform
you what the had luck Wa hopin il Il he
a warnin' 10 all females who 20 To Fouu
tin 10 trade. You see tuck up thirty
pounds of butter and the towns people
all KNOWN that make butter which >,
butter, and batter bein scarce they com
rnenst .haliiu OF me as soon as ] got TO
town. One wanted five pounds. and an
other three, and so along, and a. they
hadn no change, every iellar paid me IN
stomrs. So rapt the stonpS up carefully
in piece of paper, and put en- in my
pocket. Well, you see | had our baby
along, and the dear little cheryub sot in
my lap all the way goin and cummiu
AND when | got home guy Fob the BABY
and went to feel for nv stompS, and iau-
zeesakei Thare was the stamps shore
euuff; but they was glued together aad
totally splice with the sticky truck on the
back OF them. 1t want the baby's fault
True their was a sort of damp;sh wetness
like, on my lap; but that would have been
nothin here or there, if the fool govern
ment hadn't gumed paste on the back OF
them.
So. all things considered, l conclued to
get some currency OF my own. An then
comes the question: What kind? shall
it be Demand Notes or Legal TENDER
guess III get the Legal Tender. You
see if want TO get the Demand Notes,
some feller might come Up some day with
one of en-, and ! might not have the spe-
cie about me, and OF course couldn't pay
him. not havin the means to do it Then
what? Why, the very next time the wee
min met in the Soin Suckle the'd say
Betsy koltcrs broke all TO pieces. Betsy
Kolters gone up; Betsy kolters gone
under; Betsy Kolters busted; and so
forth.
You see always like to be sure that ]
can make both ends meet; and 50 ]
thought I'd get the Legal Tender, just
like that ef the government, which ain t
to be paid for five years, after five years is
only to be paid when the government gets
ready. That will give me time to turn
round, and won be III no danger of the
bankrupt act. You see its my principle
to be always on hand, aud good my
word | think it is the bounden duty of
every body, old and young, men and Wee
men, to 50 arrange things as to make
there eends meet without fail; and so |
want you to print me twenty dollars in
Legal Tender.
Yours, DC, BETSY KoLTEE.

Editor Free 7rader-The government ano

has nothing to say IN the matter. This is
as it should be. But it is the imperative
duty of those officers in whose hands are
committed for the time being the desti
nies OF the soldier, to so regulate matters
as to promote the general welfare Of the
troops under their command Do they
do it? We shall see. There were about
800 men from all the different regiments
in this department, who were unable to
march when the general movement was
Inaugurated two weeks ago from different
causes; some Were sick, some had been
wounded in the late battles and all were
transferred from their regiments to the
General Hospital here for the purpose Of
regaining their health and strength by
good treatment and medical attendance
After the troops had gone The men were
transferred from the hospital to the con-
valeseent camp. The name sounds we'll

Editor ChtcGgo Tribune:
Until secession drove me thence, | cul-
tivated tobacco among the pleasant hills
of East Tennessee Last season tried it
in Iowa as far North as fortytwo degrees,
with success. | see call on you for in
formation en- tobacco culture, and will
give you my experience with it on North
ern prairie.
The wind on the prairie bruises and
tears the growing leaf considerably; which
may be remedied by planting sugar cane
tolerably thick around it. Sow the tobac-
co seed shallow on burned bed where
the ground inclines to the South, that the
sun can shine fair on it, Set the plant
out as soon as you can, take the under
leaves off six inches above the GROUND, top
to eight or nine leaves. Let it get as ripe
as possible, so the leaves do not die too
much in spots When cut, pile it ten
stalks in bunch If the wind blows, pile
it cut of the wind-turn it over tive or
three times in day or night, then hang
it in harm. When dry you have good
tobacco without firing it. The air and
wind cures it too soon, without sweating
it in little piles, (don't let it sweat to turn
black.
In Tennessee 1000 pounds per acre is a
fair crop Iowa will produce 1000 pounds
well set and cultivated A man can make
more than double what he can at any
other crop. WV. W. PATTERSON.
