That Infamous rebel paper, the Chi
cago Times says:


That Infamous rebel paper, the Chi
cage Times says:
Brigadier General Stevenson, at Port
Royal, has been ordered under arrest for
stating publicly that be would rather be
beaten than cooperate with certain
class Of troops authorized by the gov
eminent" This 10 the specification con.
tained in the order for his arrest. The
meaning is not entirely clear. Gen
Stevenson, by his use Of the work " beat
en-, " may have meant that be would
rather suffer personal chastisement than
cooperate with negroes, or he may have
meant that the sting OF defeat at the
hands Of his countrymen would not be
as humilitating TO him as cooperation
with negro officers and soldiers.
In either sense, the expression was not
only natural but craditable. No officer
with proper sense Of self.respect would
say less. .i .LFl q. ...
Does any man believe that there is o
government upon the face Of the earth,
which would hesitate TO use any and
eFs9y possible means for its preserva-
Gon? A man who thinks as General
STEVENSON, or the Times does has nc
patriotism. He is animated only by
pride and Prediudice, which are quite as
apt to turn MN against his country, as
Tor it. If we had control over Satan
Rnd all his sulphurous legions, we wouls
force them TO drive the rebel armies into
the Gulf of Mexico.

Once Upon a Time.

There never was sadder dirge r.
For minstePs harp or poets rhyme,
Than those few words wherein we merge
A dead past" Once upon time"
In vain years bring their healing balm,
Their kind forgetfulness, IN vain;
That whisper breaks the seeming calm,
And bids the old wound throb again!
Its charm the buried past recalls:
A shadow, silent and sublime,
Across the present sunshine falls
At those words-"Once upon a time"
So memory gifts with holy powers.
A faded violet's perfume faint.
Rendering withered spray of flowers
Precious as relics of saint.

There il, just now, . way of using
one of Uncle Samuel's paper Dollars,
so as to get back the worth of many
gold dollars in single year. Every
body kos heard of Seth Boyden's won
dsrful new Strawberry. From all ac-
counts, it is marvellous thing-the
berries nearly as large as hens eggs,
and as good as they are large. Deal
ers were after it, offering as high a.
$500 for the plants, to speculate up
on but we are glad to know that the
enterprising Publisher of the Ameri-
can Agriculturist got the start of them,
and bought up all the plants. and il
multiplying them in order to giUe them
aaoay to his subscribers This is in
effect a free gift to the Public-for the
Agricalturist, costing only dollar a
year, is of itself worth many dollars to
every one, as we can testify. having
ourselves long been . reader Of it.
To those unacquaintsd with it, we
would say that the Agricultur,st il q
large Journal, of 80 pages in every
number, is beautifully got up, ard is IL
lustratsd with many pleasing and in.
structive Engravings, which are alone
worth the whole cost. The pages are
literally filled with good things-plain,
practical, reliable information upon
everything connected with the work of
the HOUSEHOLD, the GARDEN, and the.
FARM,-including very pleasing and
instructive Department for Children
and Youth that il hardly surpassed By
any of the professedly -Children's Mag
azines. The thousands of useful hints
and suggestions in the Agriculturist,
all prepared by practical ,oorking men
aud women who know what they are
talking about-can not fail to be worth
many dollars to every reader, whether
residing in the City. Village, or Coun-
try. There are special reasons for SUBJ
scribing now: First, The rule for dis
tributing the Strawberry plants IT,,
/" first come first served !" and Second,
every new subscriber for the Esd
annual Volume ehat is, for all of 1864,
will get the remaining numbers of thia
year FREE. Take our advice then, and
send dollar. at once to the Publisher,

extra numbers, and also an early place
