Comparative Value Of Corn and
Pork.

From carefully conducted experiments
by different persons, it has been ascer.
tanned that one bushel Of corn will make
little over ten and half pounds of
pork-groS,. Taking the result as a
basis, the following deductions are made,
which, all our farmers would do we'll to
lay by for q convenient reference, thus:
When corn costs twelve and half
cents per bushel, pork costs one and
three.quarters cents per pound.
When corn costs seventeen cents per
bushel, pork costs two cents per pound.
When corn costs twenty-five cents per
bushel, pork costs three cents per pound.
When corn costs thirty three cents
per bushel, pork costs four cents per
pound. ...:.... ..... ... -.
When corn costs fifty cents per bushel,
pork costs five cents per pound.
Tho following statements show what
the farmer realizes in his corn when sold
in the form Of pork: ..
When pork sells for three. cents per
pound, it brings twenty-five cents per
bushel ID corn.
When pork sells for four cents per
pound, 1T brings thirty:three cents per
bushel in. corn. >..5!... .--..,~ .
When pork sells for Eve cents per
pound, it brings fifty cents per busheI in

A Defense Of Gen. Sherman.

There is the best authority for saying
that Gen. Sherman never refused to obey
the simmons of the Committee on the
Conduct of the War. His official re.
port, explaining his arrangements with
Een' Johnston, has been on flc iu the
War Department for some days. We
doub. not it will soon be published, and
upon this he rests his defense against all
The slanderous imputations. Hc knew
nothing of Secretary Stanton's reasons,
General IIallcck's order or the claim
against him until he passed Cape Henry,
ten DAYS ago, and then made his report
under q full sense that he had been
treated with injustice. 1t may here be
stated that Gen. Sherman refused to re-
cocnizc the rebel Suite authorities until
after bis first interview with Gen. John.
ston, when he received the order Of Gen.
WcitzcI, issued while the President was
in Richmond, aud recognizing the rebel
State authorities of Virginia.
lie then notified Johnston that nc
would pursue the same course as to the
other rebel State authorities. With re-
gard to the question Of slavery, he has
repeatedly recognized the validity OF the
Emancipation Proclamation and the
laws Of Congress on kindred subjects,
aud did not deem it necessary in order
to render them valid that he should SO
state in the Convention.
As for the truce it was all to our ad-
vantage. While it was pending twelve
miles of railroad were built roads were
repaired and supplies transported, and
Gen. Wilson was moving to occupy stra'
,egic points in the South in order to
prevent the escape of Davis. 1t is stated
that Cen. Sherman in answer to a re-
mons,rancc from 4 friend as to his for.
mcr hostility to newspaper correspond
en,s in his army, mentioned an instance
Of the effects of premature disclosures in
his march through North and South
Carolina. lie was beginning to march
on Raleigh, and so made Johnston be-
lievc, although his real destination was
Goldsboro, where he could procure his
supplies; but while the movement was
in full and successful operation, John
ston learned through the Northern pa
pers that the War Department was send.
ing supplies to Goldsboro via Morchead
City. Instead of defending Raleigh,
Johnston, through this information,
masscd his army and attacked Sherman
at Bentonville, and though Johnston
was repu!sed, the Union army lost 400
men. Many papers containing the in
formation. were found at Johnston s
headquarters.

President Lincoln and Secretary
Stanton.

A few days before the Presidents
death, Secretary Stanton rendered his
resignation Of the War Department.
He accompanied the act with a most
heartfelt tribute to Mr.. Liucoln's con-
stant friendship and faithful devotion to
the country, saying, also, that he, as
Secretary, had accepted the position to
hold it only until the war should end,
and that now he felt his work vas done,
and his duty was to resign.
Mr.. Lincoln was greatly moved by the
Sccretary's words, and tearing in pieces
the paper containing the resignation,
and throwing his arms about the Secrc.
tary, he said Stanton, you have been
good friend and a faithful public SER
want, and it is not for you to say when
you will no longer be needed here. -
Several friends Of both parties were pre-
sent on the occasion, and there was not
dry eye that witnessed the scene

Receiving Attention.

Some Of our Young lady. readers may
have reason to thank US fol; glylog,them
access to the following :well expressed
practical advice. Young mon, too, may
proftably tako tho hint from it: NO
ind the article afoat without credit
A young man admires pretty g'fl,
and must manifest it. He can't help
doing so for The life Of him. The young
lady has a tender heart, reaching out
like vine tendrils for something to cling
to. She sees tho admiration is aattered;
begins soon to love; expects. some ten
der avowal and perhaps goes so far as
to decide that sho will choose white
satin under tho gauze, etc., at tho very
moment the gallant that she loves u
popping the question to another d.u:e!
ten miles of. Now tho difficulty lies in
not understa ding tho difference between
nolite attention and the tender NANTES.
tations Of love. ,.,. j..
Admirinc q beautiful girl, and wishing
to make a wife Of her, are not always :ae
samc thing; therefore il is necessary
that the damsels should be on the alert
to discover to which class the attentions
paid by handsome and fashionable
Young gentlemen belong. First, then,
if a young man greets you in q loud,
free, hearty tono if he knows precisely
where to pu. his hands or his hat; if no
stares you right 10 the eye, With his own
wide open; if hc turns his back to you
to speak to another; if he squcezcs your
hand; if he eats heartily in your pres.
enco; if, in short, he sneezes when you
are singing, crititizes your curls, or fails
to be foolish in fifty ways every hour,
then don't fall in love with him for the
world! Ho only admires you, lot him
say or do what he will. -. ..u
On the other hand, if he be merry
with every one else, but quiet with you;
if ho be anxious to see that your dear
person is we'll wrapped when you 60 out
into the cold if he talks to you very
low and never looks you in. the eye; ii
bis checks are red and his nose only
bushes, it is enough. If he romps With
you, sigbs like an old pair Of bellows,
looks solemn when you are addressed by
another gentleman, and, in fact, is the
most still, awkward, stupid, yet anxious
Of all your male friends, you may Z" 90
ahead" and make the poor fellow too
happy for his SKIN to hold him!
Young ladies' keep your hearts in
case of good leather, or some other sub
staucc, until the right one is found be-
yond doubt, after which you can 60 on,
and love, and court: and be married and |.
live happy, without tho least bit OF
trouble.
