wealthy planter Of Lowndss country, last fall
procured a bsrTal Of cloves, ~whieh~were for
wsrded to his ovsrseer, and a piecs Of ground
having been properly prepared for their recep
ti0a, they were duly planted, and now we be-
lieve all parties are anxieusly awaiting for the
cloves to come up. If they grow we shsl then
be able TO say that besides raising cotton,
blockades, etc, we are prepared to raise cur
own spice. The explanation in regard 10 this
singular matter is said to be this: The planter
wrote to his ovsrseer thsl he had ordered a bar
ri Of Glove seed, aud dir5esed him to prepare a
piece of land on which to SOW it. The msr-
chant 10 whom tbe order tor seed was sent, did
not read il correctly and dispatched at once q
barrel Of cloves. The o~verseer, not being
thoroughly posted in regard to sesds, supposed
it was I'll right, sad Of course f3ll0wed instrnc-

The Recent Dlsa'.sr a. yiel,.burs-A Sin

suIar Development.
From the Chicago Timesl
The following comes to US anonymously,
postmarksd Memphis. It is easy to see in whose
interest it is written, if not by whom it was
prompted. We print it without further com
ment, save that, il the facts are as stated, the
country ought to know them
CAMP OF THE u. S. FORCES oPPOsITE
VIcKsBURe, january p, 1863.
To the Editor Of the Chicago Times:
propose to give you some OF the camp ru-
mors IS to the cause Of our late disaster at Vieks-
burg. 1t is now generally believed that Gen
Halleck is the responsible person. Tt appears
that. upon General Grants seeing it announced
in the journals that MeCiernsnd was to command
the army Of the Mississippi, be at once tele-
gTaphed to Hslleck to know whether the rumor
was true, snd HaIeek replied by telegraph,
"Dan't be uneasy. Go on with your plans, and
I win see that peither you nor I are interfered
with" Grant was further directed to promptly
fit out al expedition, and have the attack against
Yicksburg msde, before McClernand could get
away from Washington. The President was
for MeClernsnd, and Stanton was both for and
against him but Halleck preferred q defeat IN
der general Of his own choice, to g victory
achieved By q general not his cboics.
Grant assigned Sherman TO the command Of
the army Of the Mississippi, and our division
was MARCHED back to Memphis, where we found
the division of A. j. Smith and Morgan Boats
were hastily gathered together without regard to
their qualities as transports, and it was boosted
that VicksbuTg would be taken before McCIer-
nsnd arrived, and, almost without preparation,
our little army was embarked and on its way to
the bloody teld of death and defeat. At Helena
we were joiued by Steele's division, and still
onward we steamed General Sherman had no
guides, although Louisville, Cincinnati and
| ST. Louis were full Of river men who knew
VicksbuTg IS the pssssge-say Of their own
dwellings. Nor is this all. tt is said that there
was not even 8 map Of Yieksburg in the entire
command, nor a sealing ladder, nor a pontoon
that was worth the name, and ia short, the com
mand was totally uuprepared for the serious
work it was sent to perform. As it might have
been expected, the result was disaster. death and
disgrace, only relieved by the gallantry of our
troops.
Some person is responsible to esd and the
country for that sad disaster, for all the blood
which was so bliudly shed, without the slightest
chance of success.
Here, Mr. Editor, is fool for reflection, aad
predict, if G9n. Halleck remains at the head Of
our armies, that John A. McClemsnd viii be
stabbed as have been Mcclellan, Buell., Porter,
Franklin, and other generals, whose oaly crime
has been fidelity to the country and the love
borne them by their troops.

October, we should be foil of gratitude to the
Father of meTcies, who blessed the labor Of oui
hands.
It was the result Of true patriotism that con.
trolled our people to abandon 3 cotton crop and
plant so largely in corn. God has rewarded this
patriotisna with his slessing upon our labors

A corn crop is worth more than a cotton crop
at 81 per bushel. Three acres of cotton may
produce 1900 pounds in the seed 400 ginned,
at Is cents, is worth $50 These three would
produce go bushels corn-S60 If you estimate
The cotton at 20 cents, then / estimate the corn
at 81 so, and tho corn IS most profitable. But
four times the labor is required to gather three
acres Of cotton which the corn demands. This
would enable you to plant twelve scres in corn :
tbe0 you are 400 per cent. better of.
But I appeal to your love of country-to your
willingness to sacrifice a little longer in this
good cause 70 save your country By sustaining
the soldiers. Don't let svsriee tempt you to
barter what you hay suffered SO much for. to
get money for your cotton crop. 1 c0njure you
