He added: Il had hoped. until month
or six weeks ago, that Mr.. Breckinridge
was ignorant Of all this matter; bat 1
hare had evidence, as clear as noon day,
that he is as deeply implicated as Yancey
himself, and more than that, Mr.. Buch-

ALFRED Hoss.
Hitherto it has been claimed that the
election of Breckenridge would have saved
the Union, and that the election of Mr..
Lincoln rendered its destruction certain.
The above shows how much truth there Is
in this theory. What a commentary this
disclosure is upon Breckinridge's occupy
ing a scat in the U. s. Senate in 1861
How cheap Vallan1igham, Bright, Cox
and other Democrats who followed Breck-
inridge's lead, always talking as he talk
ed. and voting as he voted, must feel in
view of this disclosure. The slavshold-
ers had resolved, in any event, to break
up the Union. either through the per6dy
and .reachery of Brsckinridge or by open

Gov. Aiken of South Carolina in
the Libby Prison.
From the Nashville Union.

The following note from Parson Brown
low gives some new proof of matter
mentioned in the Union a few weeks ago.
Gov. Aiken owns 1900 slaves, but
says he would see slavery perish a thou
sand times, rather that give up the Union.
We most heartily approve Parson Brown
lows suggestion:
Gov. AIKEN OF South CAROLINA:
Il have this day converssd with DR..
Everett, surgeon of the 9th Tennessee In
fantry, who was recently confined in the
infamous Libby Prison at Richmond. He
tells nae that he was confined in the same
room with Ex-Governor Aiken of South
Carolina aud held frequent conversations
with him. So many ounces of bread and
meat were dealt out TO each prisoner per
day. and the venerable old gray haired
patriot received his daily allowances,
while the boys in prison volunteered to
do his cooking for him. The offences for
which he was imprisoned wero refusing
to take the oath of allegiance to the Con-
federacy, and to contribute means TO sus-
tain the rebellion. In conversation about
his confinement be would frequently shed
tears.
This venerable old patriot, who has
served his State as Governor, as a Con-
gresham and as member Of her Legis-
lature, is STAKEHOLDER in the Confsder-
acy, and about the wealthiest man in
South Carolina; but be is union man
and stu bbornly refuses to be anything
else. For this he is incarceratsd in a
prison. His cruel confinement has been
kept secret from the outside world, and
it has been kept out of Southern papers
becauee his villainous prosecutors were
ashamed to let his Imprisonment be
knownl
There Is no organization in South
Carolina, or any where in the seeded
States, that can afford Gov. Aiken re-
lief, and / insist that our Government
ought without weeks delay arrest five
prominent rebel citizens, and confne
them in irons until this "old man elo-
quent" is set at liberty If Mr. Lincoln
and Seward do not attend to it, propose
to Gen. Rosecrans and Governor John
ston. .hat they at once seize upon five
prominent Tennessee rebels, and confine
them in our State Prisoa. until the old
Soath Carolina patriot is released. 1t is
due to Justice, and above all, to the 10y
al sentiment OF the South.

The Secession Conspiracy.
Remarkable Statements.

Hon. Horace Maynard, member of
Congress from Tennessee, sends to the
Nashville Union letter addressed TO him
by Alfred Hoss. whom he styles "a gen.
tlsman of East Tennessee, of cultivation.
intelligence, and entire reliability" This
letter shows the highly interesting and
important fact that prior to the election
of 1860. the plan of the attack on the
Government, as afterwards carried into
execution. was publicly revealed and de-
nounced by party having abundant op-
portunity to know it. Previous to pre-
senting the following extract from Mr..
Hoss' letter, we will premise that the
name, which, for the personal safety Of
the writer. who is new within rebel grasp.
is left blank. is placed in full in the orr
ginal copy of the letter. We quote:
NASHVILLE, TenD., June 26, '63.
Hon. Il. Maynard:
DEAR S1R.-I take pleasure in comply
ing with your request to give the SUBJ
stance, and as nearly as possible. the Ian
guage of Mr.--,of Louisiana, in q
conversation which occurred between him
and myself about three weeks before the
last Presidential election. / met with
Mr.-on the ears, some miles beyond
Jonesboro, Tenn, in October, 1860. He
was then returning to his home in Lou
isiana, from the city of Washington.
By accident, l took a seat Immediate
ly behind the one occupied by Mr-,
when he at once turned round and began
to make inquiries respecting the prospects
of the different candidates for obtaining
the electoral vote of Tennessee. He ex-
pressed great pleasure when assured him
that Breckinridgs could not possibly OBJ
tain the electoral vote of this State;
and his reasons for it / will give you as
nearly as may be in his own words. 81
am glad" says he, "that MIR. Bell will
get the vote of Tennessee, although / can
not vote for him. am Douglas Dem
ocrat, and am fastening home TO see
what can be done to prevent my State
from casting its electoral vote for Breck-
inridge. / have been in Washington
since the first day of July. and tell you
now, sir, there is at this moment on foot
in Washington the most damnable con-
spiracy to break up this Government that
was ever known in any civilized country.
l do not speak from hearsay, sir, for 1
hare been IN their caucuses almost nightly
for the last three months. and Iknow the
programme from Ato q. And it is this:
If they can by any means (Which is utter
" impossible, secure majority Of the
electoral votes for Breckinridge. then the
scheme is, as soon as he is inaugurated
and put in possession , of all As resources
of tie Goyernment, to divide the country al
Mason and Dizon's line, the Ohio River,
and 36 deg. 80 min. ". to the Pacific
Ocean. In other words, they intend to
cut loose from all the Free States, and to
build up great Slave Confederacy in the
South, and to accomplish this purpose
they will use eli the resources Of the gov
erument proper. But should they fail in
this. fas they sssuredly will. the plan
is, for South Carolina to secede first
the other cotton States are to follow. { ]

An ILLUsTRATIoN.-Dr. \. Clark
was preaching to large congrega-
tien in Ireland, and after dwelling
in glowing terms upon the treeness
of the gospel, and telling them that
the water CT life could be had with
out money and without price" at
the conclusion Of the sermon a per-
son announced that collection would
be made to support the gospel in for
eign parts. This announcement dis
concerted the worthy doctor, who
afterwards related the circumstance
to the lady Of the house where he
was staying. every true, DOCTOR
replied the hostess, "the water Of
life is free, without money aud with
out price, but they must pay for the
pitchers to carry it in. - The con-
clusion of the anecdote was follow
ed by cheerful smiles and a clapping
of hands, and the children showed
that they understood its import by
the readiness with which they con-
tributed to the collection.

that you now own is not cultivated.
Do not buy fancy stock and pay
fabulous prices, on the spur Of the
moment, or without knowing why
you want.it and how you are to make
the mentproftable.
If you have good location, don It
sell out, expecting to better 1t, be-
cause you are offered good price.
Be present with your hands as
much as possible, otherwise little
work will be done, and that poorly.
No business requires TIE master $
oversight more than farming.
Better cultivate little we'll, than
much poorly. Who does not remem-
Der the farmer who had two daught-
ers ? When the first one married,
he gave her one-third of his vine
yard, and yet he had as many grapes
as formerly; when the second mar
ried, she took half the remainder tor
her portion, and yet the yield Of the
fathers share was not lcsseuel.
Invest your surplus earnings IN
making such improvements as will
add to the profits, appearance and
convenience Of your farm.
Be kind to these you employ, and
to all the animals you work.
Sell your produce when prices are
high; and if you do not want the
money, keep it when they are low
unless it is certain they will remain
so.
Make yourself thoroughly &C
quainted with the principles of agri-
culture and be guided by them
Read, travel and observe.
Take care of your tools when you
get through using them, and DO not
work with poor ones when YOU can
afford good ones.
Do not buy old wagons, p!oosES,
harrows, &C., at auction, because
you think they are cheap, as It will
not pay.
Do not keep more stock on your
farm than you have plenty Of pasture
for.
If at forty-fve years YOU have a
fair property, do not work with your
muscles SO hard as formerly, but save
the afternoon Of each day for mental
and social improvement.
Give your children good educa-
tien-physically, intellectually, NOR
ally and socially.
Use machinery and horse power,
where possible, instead Of human
muscle.
In all you do, if you would work
to advantage, endeayor to get hold
Of the long end of the lever, instead
of the short one

THE MISSISSIPPI PALACEs.-There
are now in the Yazoo river and its
tributary streams, 30 wrecks OF the
finest steamers that ever foated upon
the Mississippi river. They were
removed to the Iazoo for safety at
the commencement of the war
Some of them were converted into
gunboats but performed little service
and were burnt or sunk to prevent
them falling into Federal hands.

THE REEEL LoAN.-Thc recent re-
bel reverses have sunk the rebel loan
in England to 20 per cent. discount
This is bad for the reb's S; but, for the
sake of candor, will somebody inform
US what Federal scrip sells for in
England? The rate Of exchange is
about 40 per cent. That is to say,
it requires $40 of Federal promises
to pay to discharge debt in Eng
land of 800. How much discount,
then, would a Federal loan suffer in
England Phil. Journal.
