II PAYs.-Last fall. in a conversation with
Mr.. Samuel Cutter, of the Frontier Nursery, We
learned that he was much depressed in spirits
because of his ill-success with his Nursery He
stated that Le had spent four or FIVE years in
cultivating a frst-class Nursery, but that he
could not sell sufficient to pay him for digging
them. We advised him to advertise. He was
positive he could not do business enough to nav
such a bill. We urged, and he reluctantly con-
tracted such debt. We met him the other day,
and from the delight he manifested We Judge he
thinks advertising the staff of business. as bread
is Of life. He is now kept constantly busy. and
many OF his patrons are growing because they
have lost two or three years growth of trees.
One man came hundred miles after trees, who
remarked that he did not know there was a
Nursery in the country until he saw it adyer-
tieed in the UNION
We have another instance A few weeks ago
we noticed in this column that Gross 4 Tb;ele
would in few days receive quantity of chairs
direct from Cincinnati. By some cause the
chairs have been detained, and Mr.. Gros. ex.
presses himself as annoyed almost to death" bv
calls for those chairs. We will notice the arrival
If the chairs.

existed, and he attributes his success to printers

Is somebody in the country. and that something

How THEY LiE.-The Carney sheets are hard
at work endeavoring to prove that all the papers
which oppose the swindle are DEPENDANT upon
General Lane. In order to do this they r.ust lie
without stint. For instance. the Leaveuworth
Bulletin. IN commenting upon an item from this
paper, says lone would hardly suppose the
author of the above was getting 800 per month"
by some government Office. There is nobody
directly or indirectly connected with this paper
who hold an appointment through the influence
OF Lane, RAINY one else. The fact is the author
OF the item alluded to does not even get jour
printers wages. Another is. that s. D. Houston
owns the UNION, and he being Lane stipen-
diary it must howl accordingly" Unfortunately
for them. Houston possesses such property.

WAsHINeros, March 5.-The special cor

General Fitzpatrick has ended with failure as
to the main result intended to be accomplish
ed, but with success in cutting the railroads
between Lees army and Richmond, the de
,struction of much property, stores, &c., and
the actual Smelling Of Richmond.
Starting on Sunday, at A. NJ, from camp,
with five thousand cavalry, picked from his
own and Generals Merits and Gregg's di-
visions, he proceeded to the Rapidan, cross
ing at Ely's Ford. From thence the column
marched to Spottsylvania Court House, which
place be reached without encountering any
of the enemy.
Frsm Spottsylysnia Court House to the end
of bis daring journey he was more or less
harassed by the rebels. and frequently found
that bis lines had fallen in very unpleasant
places. AT the place last named the COM
mand was divided into different parties, who
were to scourfthe country, as they proceeded
toward a common centre, Richmond.
Every road was to be carefully secuted.
that no concealed foes, even in small num-
bers, should be left behind, so as to cencen-
trate and worry him.
The expedition was warlike tour, where
