derground drains, and stated that
wherever there was clay three feet be-
low the surface, the use of the mole
pillow would give very cheap and eff
fectual mode of drainage.
Mr.. Wolf resumed tho subject of
growing sweet potatoes--stated his
method as similar to that of Mr.. Fet-
ters, He never uses manure, and
avoids sandy land, finding they do
best in clay land. He tried cutting
the vines, but with injurious RESULTS
Has also practised lifting the vines,
with tolcrable success-but has sue,
ceeded best when they were allowed
to run at pleasure. Does not use the
hoe-pulls the weeds. The variety
he cultivates is an extra good one-the
Tennessee yam.
Mr.. Dennis agreed with Mr. Wolf
in the benefit of the plan of leaving
the vines undisturbed thinks their
striking root affords nourishment to
the plant,and that the tendency TO an
undue growth Of tops arises from the
presence of too much vegetable mater
in the soil.
The prospect of the coming grape
crop being inquired after, several mem
bers stated that their vineyards We're
not rs full as they would desire The
President thought he would do well il
he obtained a half crop. Mr., Fetters
said his vineyard was as full as he
wished; but called attention to the fact
that the vines this season seem to DC
subject to the attacks of moro enemies
than usual--caterpillars, slugs, and in
sects of various kinds. Advised watch
fulness in this matter, and the destruc'
ton, by hand, of all depredators on
their appearance. The red bird is O
very useful assistant in this work, and
will always come if furnished with I
cedar tree 10 build her nest in.
Mr.. Fetters presented specimens o
cherries Gov Wood, Kirtland's Ma
ry, and the Doctor.
Mr.. Snider presented strawberries
Wilson's Albany, and the common
wild, grown in close proximity to eacf
other, as showing the good effect npor
the wild strawberry Of growing it il
such company.
1t was agreed that tho vegetable
subject be continsed for discussion a
next meeting.
On motion tho Society adjourned
till the second Saturday in June.

still demands condition, present and
prospective, paramount, vital, and all
embracing in it's character. That
condition is LOYALTY to the govern

mocraey," as represented by this reso'
luton, ask nothing Of this kind; and
therefore are, and will continue 10 be
at variance with the President, in spite
Ct the professions made for political

The last resolution is modelled up.
on that one in the Mcclellan Chicago
platform which promised to do such
great things for the soldiers in the En-
ion armies provided they would only
cast their votes for the Presidential
nominee then set up. 1t may be dis
missed without further notice, as a
shallow bid for votes outside OF the
strict copperhcad circle.
Two things, only. seem to be now
wanting to fill the measure Of "dcmo-
cratic bcatitude One is that Presi.

That is. in plain terms, Stanton
ought to have been hanged instead of
Wirz. There was no man like Wirz
but Wirz, and he has paid the penalty
of his crimes. There is no man like
Stanton but Stanton, and the maligni-
ty of the World and those whose depra.

fed with anything short of hanging
Stanton for the crime OF giving his
best energies. his mind, body, soul aud

Union. 1t is not sympathy for the
suffering soldiers who were starved to
death at Andersonville, which makes
the World and its kind hate Stanton

wonderful endurance. His superior

about it. Do we not know, unmistak-
ably, if past history is any guide for
the future, that these very patriotic
Democrats-we mean the leaders
would, of choice, concede full privileg-
es TO their secession friends, and with
hold the same from their loyal neigh
bors rather than the REVERSED That was
the rule during the war, and many
reasons of policy could readily be sug-
gested. why it might be convenient in
the coming political contests.
Now what wo deprccate, and desire
especially to bring to view by these
remarks, is the danger TO all patriotic
interests, by the policy inauguratcd by
this democratic movement. The dan
ger is, that genuine patriotic conserv-
atism will be crushed to death between
the upper and neither mill stones OF
radicalism in Congress-unwisc and
uniustly extreme on the one hand, and
the false pretensons ofdemocratic love
for the Union, on the other. Is there
no middle ground2 Already We find
arrayed with the democratic faction,
lured there perhaps, by the hopes Of
office, or blinded by its professions OF
love for the Union, somo who have no

these-for all honest, earnest, patriot

may not in all things fully agree with
the policy of the Administration OF

large class of our most intelligent,

the extreme of ultra radicalism on one

assurance Of having their eight count
