From Slavery to Morality.

\ year ago, Adj. Gen. Thomas issued
an order regarding the marriage of freed
men in the Department of Tennessee and
the State OF Arkansas, by which clergy
men were authorized to unite the late
slaves in wedlock, to furnish them with q
rea5 certificate Of the ceremony, and to
keep record of the number of appli-
cants. At Nicksburg, between April 10
and November J. 1864. there was thus
recorded fourteen hundred and ffty-six
marriages. A large, and especially the
earliest part of these were merely the le-
gal sanction of previous cohabitation as
man and wife-often for many years We
arc told
One old man at Memphis was
married, with several others, one
morning. No sooner was the cere-
mony completed than he turned and
tcndorly embraced and kissed his now
legal wife, with evident thanksgiving
that she was now, in the eye Of the
law and of civilization, as she had
long been in the eye of God, his own
recognized wife.
" One old gentleman, of almost
three score and ten, was thus Joined
in lawful marriage to his venerable
wife. At the conclusion of the cere-
mony, when the chaplain extended
his hand with the nuptial benedicton
and dismissed them, as was the Gus
tom, in a short prayer, they both
dropped on their knees together their
eyes streaming with tears of thank
fulnegs, at the close, still kneeIing,
the old man reached out both arms
and hugged her to his heart, saying
my dear old woman. | bless God that
| can now for the first time kiss my
own lawful wife.
Five hundred and fifty-two persons
made answers that they had been
married before, and had been sold or
driven away from the dear compan-
ion of their life. One chaplain mar
ried l02 couples in one day. The
marriage fees naturally small. A
silver dime, paper half dime were
presented and in one case a sweet
potato, by bride who was more
thfughtful than her spouse. The
eldest person married was SO wears
Old. The greatest disparity of ages
was As years. Three white men mar
r;a5 calGced women--and the coun-
try still suryiyes.

Raising Calves.

A correspondent of the German
turn Telegraph writes: Seeing the
question referred to in your columns,
/ will in brief give you my mode, tho
| do little at calf raising, on account
ofmy ncarness to Philadelphia, where
l can buy COWS cheaper than | can
raise them. A calf that / am going
to raise ] neyer let suck the COW. 1t
is much easier to learn it to drink
without than after sucking. / have
had calves drink alone before they
were twelve hours old and after the
second day had but little trouble with
them, as they drink freely if in good
health. Besides the great advantage
of this is, that when they are turned
out with the cows they never trouble
them, neither have [ to muzzle them,
as they know nothing about it. For
the first two weeks l give them milk
drawn from the mother after the
cud comes, then / scald little bran
or ground oats and corn, cake meal,
&c. This mixture | have about milk
warm, feeding them about three times
a day, making fresh each time, as
they do not relish stale food. They
will soon eat a little hay; clover is
best. If there is grass, | tie them
out for a short time, and in six
weeks they may be left to run, and
then the slop is gradually Stacked
off.

Communication.
For the American Oitizen
A TOUCHING INCIDENT,

As a soldier, lately released from South
ern prison pens, and now home on fur
lough, was leisurely walking along pub
lie road, a few days since, he saw groupe
of little girls at play by the roadside.
No sooner was he noticed by them than
one of the number, who apparently had
not seen more than ten summers, ap-
preached him and enquired:
Are You a soldier?"
Yes" he replied, / am "
. Did yon know Mr. -"
No, believe not Where did he be-
long ?"
He was a member of Co. X, l40th
Pa. Volunteers.
No, | didn't know him. | belong to
Co. A, l01st P. V. v, and have but
lately been released from prison"
And are you going back to the army?"
Yes, | expect to go in few days"
Girls" she said, addressing her play
mates, " come and shake hands with this
noble soldier" at the same time extend
ing her hand, she asked to kiss him,
while great tears coursed their way down
her checks.
The bronzcd veteran stopped, and the
sweet, artless little creature kissed his
sun-browned cheeks, after which the
other members of the groupe each well
coined him with hearty shake of the
hand.
Reader, must there not be something
ineXpressibly sweet about this little hero
inc? Must she not be lovely, pure, in
nocent, ingenious and unsuspeeting, and
fit companion for those who dwell on the
right hand of the majesty on high?

n.y. Hon. Paleo Snrapue .Judce

Dsg~ Hon. Paleg Sprague, Judge of
the U. S. District Court at Boston.
has resigned on account of failing
health, District-Attornoy Dana ra-
lates this story of him:
II remember a barrister of consid-
cradle legal and political credit oues-
tioning with Judge Sprague, whether
a man could be tried for treason in
Massachusetts, where there was no
war. He objected that the Constitu-
tion limited treason to the levying of
war, and to overt acts, and guaranteed
to each man II trial IN the State in
which the treason was committed.
Judge Sprague replied: Bring ue q
man who, here in Massachusetts, has
by an act however slight, and howev-
er remote from the field of war, inten-
tionslly given aid to the rebels in
arms as by communicating to them
information or advice, and | will not
only show you that | can try him, but
that | can have him hanged"
Judge Sprague has had but two
predecessors in office-John Lowell,
1889, and John Davis, 1901. An
other John Lowell succeeds him, a
great grandson of the former, who
received his appointment from Wash
ington himself, and was the author
of that first article in the Massachu-
setts Declaration of Rights which
abolished slavery in that State.

GRAPE PRUNING.-This should
now be attended to. Many persons
seriously injure their vines by inju-
ciously pruning, When the business
is not understood, it is always better
to employ an experienced person to
attend to it, one season, from
whom the method can be easily learn
ed. 1t is better that the very robust
varieties like the Concord, Diana, etc.
should not be closely pruned while
slower growers, like the Delaware,
Rebecca, etc, may be cut into much
more severely, as they bear the bulk
of their fruit near the ground.-G Ger.

SALADs.-We comprehend under
this head all greens used, raw or
cooked. They are luxury in any
garden, and indispensable to the far
mer on the score of economy and hui
manity, understanding the last to
comprehend the duty of providing
not only a sufficiency but variety of
food, for those who labor (and in a
wide section) for no other remunera-
tion but care and provision for them.
Turnips, horseradish, bcets, and rad
ishes, are the only roots We remem-
Der that produce leaves for this pur-
pose. Small salads, lettuce, mus
tard garden crops, spinach, or any
of the cabbage tribe, may be sown in
good ground in early spring, and
again in early fall. Some Of these
small salads pcrpetuate themselves
by the seed falling on their beds. A
good crop of cabbage, embracing a
succession of kinds, plenty Of tur-
nip and mustard, will afford you the
desired supply for the whole year
round.

ToMATo.-Sin:c this plant has ac-
quired double value by its capability
ofbeing preserved (by potting) entire
ly fresh for winter, it deserves doub-
le attention in cultivation. Raise
plants in hot-bed8 for early fruit, and
SOW seed in A )ril for later plants, or,
if the spot where they stood the pre-
vious year has not been disturbed you
WILDE sure to find strong, hardy
plants there, as early and abundant
as from a seed-bcd. Plant in good
ground, 4 feet apart, and give the
plants support, or if that is not prac-
ticable, spread the ground beneath
them thickly with clean straw, to pre-
vent the rotting Of the fruit from
contact with the ground.
Chickens are. very destructive to
this vegetable. When winter approach
es pull the vines and hang up in a warm
cellar; all the half ripe fruit will
mature. Ripe tomatoes cut with
stems, and placed just not touching
'ach other, will keep a long time.
