UNITED STATES JOURNAL.
Volume Eleventh.

This popular Journal, which was incorporat-
ed with The Working Farmer at the beginning
of the war, we propose to again publish, on the
eighth day of January, 1866, in separate form.
1t will be issued every week, and devoted to
Family as well as Agricultural reading. Each
number will be handsomely illustrated, and
contain frst-class Stories, wherein the prurient
tendencies of modern pictorial fiction will be
avoided, and a high moral tone maintained.
At least eight large folio pages, more than
twice the size of those of The Working Farm.
er, will be filled with the best articles and
items on Agriculture, Horticulture, Floricul-
ture, Landscape Gardening, The News, etc.,
and thus those rural readers, who are impatient
with the infrequent visits of our monthly mag
azine, will be supplied every week with the Ia
test agricultural matter the Prices Current, the
news of The day, besides full reports of the de-
bates Of the American Institute Farmers Club,
and the literary contents, which will render the
Journal invaluable to the household. It will
supply place which is not filled by any paper
published in the Empire City, and we solicit
from the public the liberal patronage which it
will be our assiduous care to merit.
1t will likewise be our aim to chronicle all
new inventions and imp. ovements in the appli-
ances of Agriculture, and present in our col
umns engravings of such machines and imple-
ments as promise to be permanently valuable.
TERMs-$250 per annum; $2O0 in clubs Of
10 or more Single numbers, 6 cents. Speci-
men numbers free.
PREMruMs.-Our terms to Canvassers for the
United States Journal will be the same as to
those of the Working Farmer, and subscrip-
tons for either paper will be counted in the
number required for the Premiums offered in
the above table. Address the publishers,

From the New York Observer. I

We have had in use for months past one Of
Vests Pumps, which has given US more sat-
isfaction as force and lifting pump than any
we have ever used. 1t 10 one of great power,
and well adapted for ships decks, mines, fac
tories, greenhouses, graperies, &c, &c. The
Mining Chronicle and Railway Journal says:
1t is recommended for its extreme simplicity
of construction, groat strength, and conse-
quent durability and cheapness of repair
There is no stufing box-the pressure being
held by cup packing, like that upon the
working piston, working in cylinder, fitted
for the purpose within the upper air chamber
which we think great improvement, as stuifing
is so liable to be deranged, and leak under
strong pressure, to say nothing of the loss bv
Fiction incident thereto. 1t has also two air
chambers: thus the action of the valve is
cushioned upon both sides by air-prt venting
water-hammer and vacuum -thump. The valves
are very accessible, and simply and cheaply
repaired. They work much easier than any
pump we have ever seen; the 4 inch cylinder
being worked by children in wells 100 feet
deep, and as they are extremely cheap as well
as simple and strong, We freely Recommend
them.

Gen. Grant and the Frssdmsn's Bureau

Gen. Srant ana the Ffeeumeno bureau
As a statement has recently appeared in several
papers to the effect that Gen. Grant had ordered all
officers Of the Freedmens Bureau in the South to
report directly to Gen. Howard instead of to their
respective department commanders, in all matters
relating to the affairs Of the Bureau, desire prob.
ably exists to konw the reason inducing this action
on the part Of the Lieutenant General. The true
explanation is as follows: In all Of the Southern
States the assistant commissioners Of the Bureau
are subordinate army officers, exercising two-fold
duty-that of attending to the affairs of the freed
men, and also of commanding military posts in
addition to such duty.
In several instances complaints have been made to
the Commissioner that they were ordered to report
directly In reference to fresdusn's affairs to tho
commanders Of military departments. Upon learn.
ing of this action the part Of these officers Cen
Howard addressed circular Of instructions to each
assistant commissioner ordering them to report on
all affairs connected with the bureau directly to his
headquarters; upon which circular Gen. Grant
placed tho following endorsement:
The Freedmen's Bureau, being by law under
the immediate direction Of the War Department,
and its officers and agents being subject only to
the orders Of the Commissioner In matters pertain
ing to the Bureau, they cannot be required to re.
port on euch matters to military oOmman anders, un.
les' they are named In orders as agents of the Bu
reau. The within Instructions of General Howard
are therefore approved"

lifts the case Of JEFF. DAVIS into the solemn

reader, with half an eye, must perceive that
