Mr.. Maynard's Speech in Connect

eur. ltcstOratiOn OF the Union.
From the New York Herald, March POI
Mr.. Horace Maynard, OF Tennessee,
made n very foolish speech at Meridian,
Connecticut, on the 9th inst. He
spoke in flavor Of the Republican candi.
date, and stigmntized the opponents Of
that neutrality-suspicious. nearly half.
the people Of Connecticut as "dcscrt-
crs and bounty jumpers coppcrheads,
and SO on, and accused them generally
Of a want Of patriotism. This was
neither wise nor polite. The fact that
men oppose n Republican candidate
need necessarily impeach their patriot
ism, and since Mr.. Maynard pretended
TO feel grateful TO Connecticut forsomc
past ~iayors, he might lmve exhibited
his gratitude in u better way than by
abusing a great number Of her people,
The most remarkable points in Mr..
Maynard's speech was his reference to
the re t ra,'on Of the Union w
have now," he said, "a restored Union,
and the government is established be,
You'd all efforts to disturb it," And he
further declared that this restored
Union had restored "all the rights and
privileges Of peace" This is singular
language for One in his position. Mr..
Maynard is amember elect from Ten,
nesscc in the present Congress, and he
is refused admission to the House. He
is not allowed to take his seat in the
House, either as a right or n privilege,
in this restored Union. He is shut ont
by the verdict Of party which denies
the restoration in Tennessee, though
it alirms it in Connecticut.
The most important fact in Mr.. May
nard's life is that he, with many other
representatives Of the Southern people,
denied the highest right given by the
constitution. He cannot gain from
Congress any recognition oftlle rights
Of his constituents in the Union, and
vet he goes to Connecticut and pratcs
Ola restored Union and restored rights
in order to contribute to the success Of
the very party that denies that Union
and those rights in his own case.
We know not by what bargain Mr..
Maynard has arranged with the Radi-
cal leaders TO thus sJultily himself and
his constituents by doing the dirty
work Of the Radicals in the Connccti-
cut canvass but if the price Of this act
is any exception to be made in his IA
vor on the question Of admission, he
will only secure that expense Of public
odium.

EDITOR CITIzEN:-Cotton has come up
finely; all have good stard. The recent
cold snap has been favorable for the cut
worms, and they have made their mark.
I presume (from observation and infor-
nation received) that one-half of the corn
will be to plant over. Oats and grasses are
looking remarkably well. There cannot be
wheat enough made for nome consumption,
and, until we adopt the rule of sowing
early, and having the ground nell prepared,
we need not expect to grow one-half of
what we might. Early sowing, ground
well prepared, and close grazing, and we
viii rarely ever miss good yield.
I got Mr.. Walker Brown to clip my
sheep, some two weeks since. My "long-
wool ews'' averaged seven and one-third
pounds of merchantable wool, of which

September last. The Ews of my old flock
averaged three pounds, and were clipped
10 months ago; and they, by the way, are
the best of our old fashioned sheep. Com
ment is unnecessary. Yet a large majority
of our farmers and stock-growers persist
in holding on to their old ffocks-that do
not average two pounds Of wool per annum

which are much the dearest in the end
Good stock is always in demand, and buy
