We have heard it suggested in
conversation that aur farmers would
do well to plant largely this season,
and raise all that they can of staple
crops. We think the suggestion n
good one. Present prices of agri-
cultural products are highly pemu-
nerative to the farmer. Nor is there
any probability of decline i'm de.
paand. Should the war continue be-
yond the present season, the army
must be fed and supplied with ami
nsahs and forage for animals as at
present. Should it not continue.
then the whole population of the
South would need our surplus to re-
heye their most pressing wants. So
that, III any event, the demand for
farm products must continue to be
great and prices profitable. Last
year we had a most abundant har-
vest we hope for like blessing
the coming year. But there is, OF
course, possibility of unpropitfous
season, and for this we ought to be
prepared by planting largely, SO the
aggregate Of supplies may not prove
insufficient for the needs Of the
country.

crush the rebellion when these suspected pat
riots shall show the same enthusiasm in speak
ing of the victories Of our arms ; of your bra
very and achievements of tie triumph of the
Union over the Rebellion; and of the perpet-
uation of those great principles which cons II
tGte our national glory, that they nov exhibit
for the negro and the misfortunes of the rebels,
their clamors against the Government and the
Administration will at least have the appear
once of being the utterance of honest hearts.
We say TO you, our brave countrymen, that
cur wishes, our prayers, our purses, and if need
be our blood, shall be given 10 sustain you in
your places of peril. We have no politics and
no party, but the Union and the Constitution.
If there are those with US who viii attempt to
prostitute our great mission with any peculiar
or partizan views we viii repudiste fheir des-
ecration of our high and holy purposes. If
there are money changers in our rts.5ss : no
viii speculate upon the wants and gaiSsas be
brave o'diery, we will scOurge them p9m cur
communion. We unitedly pledge tosF4Ji and
the great cause TO which you have o.alicated
your all, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred
honor. Whilst you guard US from the hands
of the rebels, we will guard you from the treach-
eFyA6f domestic traitors. You have aroused
Us to proper contemplation of the enemy in
our midst. That enemy must and will be con
quered by appeal, by argument, and by all the
motives which ean be sumnond, to move the
heart of patriotism. We dread civil strife
but not so much as we dread the rebellion
We are ready 10 meet any issue, however fear
ful, that we may save the Constitution ard
the Union
Soldiers of Ohio: Be of good cheer. The
dawn Of a brighter day for our country is break
ing. A healthful reaction is now in progress
among the masses of our people, and they are
detecting and exposing the false professions
and hypocriSies of deceivers. They are begin
ming real ze the true and great issue-the
Constitution and the Union against the rebel
lioE; and they are preparing for any and all
sacrifcts which may be needed to secure victo-
~. The liberal, The enlightened, and the patri
otic OF otler Ian ds, Are arcusing to fnll view
of the nature of our contest and they are now
sending thcir welcome greetings TO the friends
of Constitutional Liberty. Wait, and watch
ard fight little longer ard the great tri-
umph f,r you, for us, and for the world, will
come. Justice, truth, and humanity, and the
OF the good and true in all lands,
are with u. And He who guided our fathers
through the perils Of the Revolution, viii go
before US and be Cur reward as we advance TO
the overthrow Of the rebellion.

A gentleman was walking OveT
his farm with a friend, exhibiting hIg
crops, cattle and sheep, with all Of
which his friend was highly pleased
but with nothing so much as his
splendid sheep. He had seen the
same breed frequently before, but
had never seen neutrality-suspicious.,
and with great earnestness he asked
to know how he had succeeded in
producing such fiocks. His simple
answer was, 4 take care of my lambs
SIR Here was the secret of his large
heavy fleeced sheep-he took care
of them when they were lambs"

This is so plain in its terms, TINT its mean
ing is not likely to be misunderstood. and it is
50 inst ard necessary that it will receive the
hearty approval of loyal people. Hitherto
treason has been bold in This Department.
Sympathy for rebels has been openly express
ed. Organizations for sustaining lines of
communication with the enemy have been sus-
tanned. Families of rebel officers have been
permitted to reside here erpying the protec-
tion and blessings Of Government which
their husbands are trying TO destroy. The
freedom of the press ard of speech have been
prOsiItuted. In a word, there has been u dan
gerous enemy in the rear, who have given aid
and comfort to the enemy in front, and 10 such
an extent has this business been carried that
it would seem as if treason was at o premium
and loyalty at a discount. The loyal people
are to be congratulated upon this order Of
Gen. Burnside. That it vii be executed in
he spirit in which it has been issued there need
be no doubt. Those who would avoid the
penalty attached TO disloyal practices, will find
it necessary to behave themselves. Tie ma
tion is at war, and while it continues we must
expect to be subject more or less to war prin-
ciples. - Cincinnati GuoaEe.

Gardans.

Every man, rich or poor, in town
or in country, should should culti@
vate some piece of ground, no mat
ter how small, and have something
either useful or beautiful growing
in it, if it be within the scope Of
possibility. A garden creates a
taste for simple pleasures. Those
flowers and simple trees that may
or may not interest the passing
stranger, will always be looked up
on with interest and affection by the
eye of him who planted them with
his own hand. This love of natural
beauties is the best antagonist to
love Of artificial stimulating and
expensive excitement. A garden
attaches a man permanently to his
home. 1t is a kind of sheet an
chOr, that ties a man fast to place
he has once improved by thousand
little roots and tendrils, numerous
as those of the trees he has planted.
When GulliVer went to Lilliput, he
woke and found that the tiny inhab|
itants had driven stakes into the
earth, and made them fast to the
separate hairs of his head, so thaG
while he could lie still pleasantly
enough, let him attempt to move,
and it was at the expense of a thous<
and little pains, each Of itself sur
mountable, but the whole together
forming strong premium upon re-
maing quiet. Every plant and tree
and flower of a garden kent and cIlls
tivated by ones own hand, becomes
such tie to one quiet spot around
your own DWELLING

Gentle pale-faced Luna bright
e. Peeps in BOW through my lattice bars,
She seems uore beautiful tonight,
As she shines q Queen uf the stars"
Oh could be free from earthly sir,
As Luna seems from earthly forms
So far remote from worldly did,
Sc far from cold and dZeary storms =
Methnks 'tWOuid ill my soul with bliss;
As on this earthly globe trod
To ENJOY heavenly peace like this,
'Twere near like living with my God.
But Lura has such gentle ways
she woes the stars, e'en at her call
See they Obey-just while gaze
(, She bec6Ons here-watch that one fall.
Kind Lana, keep thy treasures rare,
Fen though on them fondly gaze
have DO use for ali n sin,
Juss lend me thy resplendent rays.
But ah why court 1, thee to stay,
Thou dost see far lower faces
On which thy siivsry beams may play,
And leave their soft, enIivening traces.
But what Of beauty OF form, or face?
Since all were made to serve their God,
Zen though in some more gifts trace,
We're all alike, when meath the sod
But Luna stay-still on one shine,
And teach me 10 be wholly pure
And let the righteous en- BE- mine
Nay my eternal peace be sure
So may il re. my heavenly King
Nay 1. the mortal of thy hands,
When seated round thy thrOne-to sing,
Meet all thy bless from many lands
