Of the ordinance Of secession by the Texas
Convention, done all that lay in their power

President to do the rest on behalf Of the
country. His clear duty was to pronounce
their complete restoration, and this he has
promptly, boldly and unreservedly done. he
has done this entirely without regard to the
present course Of Congress, and really In
defiance of it The constitution, the repeated
declarations Of the party to which he owes
his position, the voice Of the whole people,
marked out this line of conduct with unmis-
taxable distinctness, and left him no option.

have seen them stand; arm in arm / have
seen them walk, as if their souls were firmly
knit together by delicate and tender fibres,
the severance of which, thought, would be
exceeding painful; like the rending of soul
and body asunder. l looked again, and 10,
these friends were more than strangers to each
other, they were enemies, and fierce and bit
ter hatred had taken possession oftheir hearts.
I have seen husbands and wives, who should
have had no thought or wish seperate from
each other, whose hearts should have beat as
one, these have seen living at bitter feud,
converting the last relic of the life Of Paradise
into sad, unhappy scene, enough to make the
angels weep.
knowing these things, dare I conclude
that Love is all a youthful dream, fond,
fanciful and foolish? Or that Friendship
is a mockcry, andDevotion, Truth, Duty
but names handed down from ancient gene
ration? No, the story Of Daman and Pythias
is no fable. Men live and die for each other,
and Friendship, Devotion, Duty, LoYe are
real, even in this world, and shine with a
steady light upon the pathway to the Tomb.
That Great Soul, which bore in His Infnity
the infirmity Of the world of woe, draws very
near to the redeemed hearts Of some Of the
children of humanity. And foul as ones

The DEAD AT ANDERsoN7IELE.-A DIS
GRACEFUL TRUTH.-The Louisville Courier
says it has upon its table pamphlet of sew
enty-four pages, containing the list OF Union
dead at Andersonvile. 1t is a sad catalogue,
and as we glance through its mournful pages
we cannot choke down an e1ecration at the
thought that at the very time these men were
passing away by hundreds daily, the Confed-
crate Government was absolutely on its knees
begging for an exchange of prisoners, and was
constantly denied. That these men now rest
in far-off, and in many cases unmarked,
graves, is fairly chargeable upon those who
so heartessly rejected the propositions Of the
of the Confederate Government for full and
fair exchange.

V1TRoL AND FENCE PosTs.-Of the many
methods of preserving fence posts from decay
none is perhaps more simple and cheap than
the one Of soaking them In blue vitriol. AT
a recent meeting of the Farmers Club, in
Hudson, n. Y, one of the members exhibited
post which, previous to being placed in the
ground, had been soaked in solution of blue
vitriol, one pound of vitriol being used to
twenty quarts of water. The post was pine,
and when taken up was as sound as when
first put down, eight years since. This solu-
ton is good for all kinds Of timber exposed to
the weather-spouts, shingles, stakes bean
poles, &c.

TIE LAST Man OF THE RETREAT1NG ARMY
The Petersburg Index, speaking Of the desc
Grafton of burial lot in Pocahontas, near
that city, makes the following interesting
mention of the last devoted North Carollnlan
"There is buried here one soldier-a North
Carolina Curtius-who, on the night of the
evacuation, was left at Pocahontas Bridge to
fire it, and was killed there, the last MAJ Of
the retreating army. He was found dead by
the Federal fovces in advancing, and by them
inferred, blanket his only coffin, and the
apron of a woman who came there to weep,
his only shroud."

To DRIVE AWAY RATS.--Some years since a
correspondent of the Boston Cultivator re-
commended potash for this purpose. The
rats troubled him very much, so that he felt
justified in resorting to extreme measures to
effect their expulsion from his premises. He
pounded up potash and strewed it around
their holes, and rubbed some under the boards
and on the sides where they came through.
The uext night he heard squealing among
them, which he supposed was from the caus-
tie nature of the potash that got among their
hair, or on their bare feet. They disappeared
and for long time he was exempt from any
further annoyance.

The PEABODY GIFr.-We have received a
pamphlet containing statement by the trus.

to the poor of London. They have decided
upon a large investment of the funds in tcne
nents in various parts of the city, and have
already completed the Peabody Square, Is
lngton, the Peabody Buildings, SPitalfclds,
and are making arrangements for other SINH
lar blocks at Shadwell, Chelsea and Bermond-
sey. From this lucid narrative of thejudicious
operations of the trustees, and the pictures
accompanying it, representing the structures
already erected, it is evident that these gen
men have entered heartily and understanding
ly into the purpose of the generous donor of
the noble charity, and are making the best of
uses of it, for the advantage of the suffering
class it is designed to help, in a way that in
duces them to help themselves, and improve
their physical and moral condition. There is

PLANTING PROSPECTS IN TIE WEsT.-Not-
withstanding the large number flaboreTs who
have left Georgia and A!alama for Mississippi
this season, the demand is entirely inadequate
to the supply. In many sections the planters
cannot make more than half crop on account
of the scarcity of hands. Mississippi suffered
heavily from raids during the war and much
of her labor was run into Alabama and Geor
gia, and scattered. In Arkansas the prospects
are very favorable. Repeated accounts assure
US that the crops will be very good.
