Bill Arp Returns to the
Eternal City and Meets
his Friend Big John.
Mr. Etl.tur Meterpoliton Rrkod :

Mr. Etl.tur metropolitan R'kord:
MIR. ED1rrR, SUR: I hav not up 70
this time made any remarks in pubhk
about the trials and tribulations, the
losses and the crosses, the buzzards and
,led hoses seen on our journey home to
the eternal sitty. I shall not allood to
it now, only to remark that our comm
back were not so hasty as our leavin.
1t was in the dead Of winter, through
snow and slect, over creeks without
bridges and bridges without floors,
through deserted and desolate land,
where no rooster was left to crow, no
pig to squeal, no dog to bark; where
the ruins of happy homes adorned the
way, and ghostly chimneys stood up
like Sherman's sentinels guardin the
ruins he had made. A little one hoss
consern contained the highth of my
worldly possession, consistin Of my nu-
lnerous and lovely wife and children,
and shuck basket full Of some second
class vittels. Countin our offspring,
there was about ten of us in and about
and around that wagin, thus ilustratin
what the poet has sed: ''One glorious
hour of crowded life is worth an age
without name," though the glory
were hard to perseve on SIGH okkashuns.
Mrs. Arp are of the opinyun that her
posterity we're never as hungry before
In their life as on that distressin Jour-
ney, and she once remarked that there
want nary rod Of the road that dident
hear some Of en- a hollerin for vittels.
My wife's husband is troobled bekaus
they aint broke Of it yet, and it do
seem that the poorer I git the more
.devourin they become, and of which
will end in sumthin or other if sumthin
.dont't happen.
We finally arrived within the pre-
sinkts of our lovely home. The doors
,creaked welcome on their hinges, the
hoppin-bug cherruped on the hearth,
and the whistlin wind was singin the
same old tune around the bedroom
corner. We were about as happy as
we had been miserable, and when [
remarked that Gen. Vandiver, who ok
kupied our house, must be gentleman
for not burning it, Mrs. Arp replied.
II wonder what he done with my
soing masheen."
"He dident cut down our shade
trees" sed I.
"'My buroes and carpets and crock
ry are all gone" sed she.

The Proclamation

I have it from good authority that the

selves under the Constitution of the Uni
ted States, and State and local laws, with>

Mr.. Pollard writes: If General Grant
has the power to stop the liberty of speech
in the press, he also has the power to
muzzle the freedom of speech in Congress.
He speaks of the newspapers alternating
both sections Of the country. We beg
leave to state thatin the halls of Congress
there is more scdition and disafection
ventilated there, and disseminated all over
the country, electrically, In one hour, than
in one year by all the newspapers in
the South. Can't he suppress those
fomenters of discord, Sumner and Ste
vens?

4 Coop REpoRT.-Gcn. Richardson,
writing from Darlington, S. c., to the Gin
cinnati Commercial, says
"The quiet and orderly conduct Of the
people, both white and colored, deprived
us they are Of the customary restrain, of
ciul'law, is really surprising. I travelled
recently nearly two hundred miles in an
open carriage, without guard and with
out arms, through nnfrequentcd parts OF
the country, and I found the road, by
right or day, as secure as in Ohio.'

Not where the aarth drank in the blood of my.

No, mid the cannons roar the trumpet's clang;
Not where, mid flashing steel, the Southern

Not there, our hero died..
Gently and peacefully lie sank to rcst
While loved ones in the parting hour around

Afar from all the scenes of earthly strife,
Calmly the Christian hero yielded up his life.
And passed from hence away.
His cpitapl is gravcd on each true heart,
His mcmry is of each Southern soul part,
His own loved Carolina mourns her son,
And crowned with glory, by his valor won,
Weeps Der her hero dead.
And never willie the walls Of Sumter stand,
Shall we forget him, who with his brave band
By day and night four countrys hope aud stay)
Guarded the citys gates, and kept tile foe at

No more tie battle cry rings through our land;
Cru-hed is each Southern heart and powerless

The following characteristic case Of ar
ristocracy is recorded as having come off
at Stanton, Va:
"One of the Northern school marms'
who is there employed in teaching the
freedmen told sprightly negro girl
that she must not call the woman with
whom she lived mistress; that she was
just as good as anybody. Pretty soon the
girl asked her teacher what business she
followed before coming South to teach.
4 was bonnet-maker,' was the reply.
WELL said the girl, Egatheriug up her
books and making for the door, I'm not
going to sociate wild you any longer; you
say L is excl to nv mistress, and she
don't sociatc wild bonnet Makers"

Love on the Railroad.

The holidays are great days for rccip-

conductors can bear witness. Not long
since Conductor Cawlcy bad the blessed

and sweet repose. The by.sitters were
simply amused but Conductor Cawley,
more experienced, foresaw serious, II
not fatal, results. Approaching the

u professional air, after IA few moments
addressed the young man:

Sales Of new corn have been made at three
dollars per barrel-as it shrnks one-tenth dur
ing the winter this is equal to So 80 10 March.
The crop is enormous, and from the scarcity OF
-four it will command more.
Last year the corn, fodder and all, on the
Wheatland estate, belonging to the heirs of the
late Gen. R. L. Wright, sold for $500; this
year the Executor expects to make from $50
acres, at least ] 200 barrels, and most likely
1900 barrels, or quite 81 900 worth of CORN
This, probably, is an extreme case. but, sup
pose the corn crop of 1866 will sell for at least
three times as much as did that of 1865
A. NJ. Vandevanter, administrator with will
annexed of Andrew Graham, sold his farm OF

the y. S. forces in 1864; he>a also sold 25 acres
of wood land on the Short Hill, near Morrison
vile, for s35 80 per acre. John Curry, SON
in-law Of Mr.. Graham, was the purchaser in
both cases, and understand the bidding was
