The cheapest and most nutritious veg

Leibig says that pork and beans form a
compound of substances peculiarly adap-

support life. A quart of beans and half
a pound of pork will feed small family
for a day with good strengthening food.
Four quarts of beans and two pounds
of corned beef, boiled to rags, in fifty
quarts of water, will furnish good meal
for forty men.

RAIN AND MUD-The "oldest indabitant
is again nonplussed. He never before saw
such Christmas and new year in Ottawa
as we have had this year. No frost in the
ground, rains incessant. and mud beyond
soundings. If such rains as We have had
have been general over the northwest,
there will be NO lack of water in the Miss
i,sippi river to float our gunboats to Vicks-
burg or any other point on the stream. If
like rains have prevailed about the head
| waters of the Cumberland. our army at
Nashville will no longer be in straits for
want of provisions ON account of low water
in that stream. The season has indeed
been remarkable. Here it is mid winter
and yet we have had no weather cold
enough to bridge across the rivers at Otta-
wa. There is no .chance for a January
thaw this year-ths thaw has been con.
| tinuous.

Explanatory 7

The Nallandgham organ charges that the JopR-
NAL of last week contained
GA most vile and abusive communication, de
signed to injure the character of Of our Oldest
and most respectable citizens
We have never intended to admit in our columns
the class of reading above described, ana we are
not vet aware that we have done so. The commu-
nicaton we published was in response to an edito-
rial article which appeared in the organ. The
above charge therefore, calls out the following
questions Is the editor OF tic organ one of our
oldest and most respectable citizens " Or, Does
one of our oldest and most respectable citizens write
the organs editorials? ?" This explanation was in
order, before the above charge!
Not being as vol acquainted with the history OF
past local transactions in this county as older resi-
dents it is possible that in the matter of that
munication we were imposed upon! If it con-
tanned any alse statements the aggrievcd author of
the editorial article in the o"gan can be put upon
the track of our malicious " correspondent, by
calling at the JOURNAL Office. But we cannot un-
derstand how the publication of facts, if they were
such, can be injurious to the character of "old-
est and mast respeotaHe citizeHS !" The publication
of incidents in the lives of persons of hq class is
generally considered rather complimentary than
otherwise.

The 18th Ohio Cavalry.

A few weeks since we announced that II. f.
Averil, Esq, Of this place, had been appointed
Quartermaster Of the 9th Ohio Cavalry two weeks
later we stated that we had received information
that Mr.. Averil was Quartermaster in the Sth
Cavalry instead Of the 9th and now we have pos
tive, reliable, unquestionabIe" information that the
Regiment of which Mr.. Averill is Quartermaster,
is to be known as the lth Ohio Cavalry.
We understand likewise that Rev. g. A. Adams,
Presbyterian Minister d this place, also goes with
theiregiment, in the capacity of Chaplain.
The destination of this regiment, ia into the Wild
est aud least explored of the Rocky Mountain will
derness, and chance will thus be given to visit
sections of the Far West, which eau only be reached
through the agency of military command. One
battalion Of this regiment is already in service in
the Rocky Mountains. The new battalion has been
recruiting at Camp Denison and will be ready to
move this week. Their route will be by rail to St
Louis, thence up the Missouri to Fort Leavenworth
or Omaha City, from one of which points the train
will start across tho plains and up the Platte River
10 Fort Laramie.
This regiment will be furnished with arms Of a
superior character, admirably flied for the service
upon which they are sent. They will be equipped
with the Smith & Wesson carbine and the Spen-
csr repeating rifle, also the Colt or Remington re-
Volver, besides light saben.
