quent conversations with him. So many
ounces of bread and meat were dealt out
to each prisoner per day, and the vcner-
able old gray-haired patriot received his
daily allowance, while the boys in prison
volunteered to do his cooking for him.
The oficnses for which he was imprisoned
were, refusing to take the oath of allie
glance to the Confederacy, and to con-
In conversing about his confinement, he
would frequently shed tears.
This venerable old patriot, who has
served his State as Governor, as Con-
gresham, and as mcmber of her Legis-
laturc, is the largest STAKEHOLDER in the
Contederacy, aud about the veal ,hiest
man in South Carolina but he is a
Union man, and stubbornly refuses to be
anything else. For tins he is incarcera-
ted IN prison! His cruel confinement
has been kept secret from the outside
world, and it has been kept out of South
ern papers, because his villaiuous persc-
cutors were ashamed 20 let his imprison-
lnent be known
There is no organization in Souh
Carolina, or anywhere in the seeded
States, that can afford Gov. Aiken relief,
and Insist that our Government ough',

set at liberty. If Mr.. Lincoln and Sew

C. The fax crop of the Uni ed States

N~The fax crop. of the Uni ed States
this year will be larger than ever before
raised in this country and inquiries are
being made as to the best mode of dis
posing of it. One of our exchanges ad
vises the farmers, afer thrashing out
the seed, to sack the straw carefully,
protect the stacks wi h boards or a good
thatch, and await the coming of custom
ers, who will appear between this and
the close Of the year. 1t is important
that the straw be kept dry, otherwise it
will rot, and the fiber be destroyed
From present appearances there is no
doubt that there will be demand for
every ton Of fax raised and farmers
will do well to preserve their straw in
good condition. The preparation of the
fiber had better be left for those who
make it their special business.

GREENGAcKs." Few people, per-
haps, are aware why the national cur
rcncy is printed with green bucks, there
fore will explain the reason. Ever
since the adoption of paper currency, it
has been the constant study Of bank
note cngravcrs to get up some plan of
printing bills that could not be counter
tcited. In Ibis they only partly sue
ceeded till as late as 1857, when a man
named Stacy j. Edison invented kind
of green ink, which he pa ented June
Both Of that year 1t is called anti
Photographic ink, because it cannot be
photographed on account of its color,
and cannot be dislodged with alkalics by
counterfeltcrs, to get a complete fac
simile of the bills. And as it is a secret
only known by the American Bank Note
Company and the inventor, it is impossi-
bic to counterfeit the greenback money.
1t was used by many banks before the
war, but it was never leading feature
in the bill. Even if the composition of
the ink was known, it would be of no
use, as the work could not be copied
from The genuine bills rs with any other
kind of ink. The date of the patent
can be seen on all the bills, in small
print.
