THE CROPS In TENNESSEE

The jackson Wing of the oath instant
says owe are most happy to inform our
distant friends that the prospect is fine for
large crops of cotton and corn all through
this section, and the same may be said of
West Tennessee generally. In the north
ern counties, where tobacco has heretofore
been the leading product of the farmer,
more cotton and less tobacco is being
raised SO that, upon the whole, there will
be a pretty heavy crop of cotton made in
this division Of the State. 1t is estimated
by good judges that there will be 10000
bales shipped from the depots of Jackson
alone"
The McMinnville Enterprise of the oath
inst. says: 1--WE have recently travelled
through some eight or nine counties, and
find the corn crop to be very promising.
In some localities there is want Of timely
rains, but nothing serious. The crop may
be set down as a good one"

Foxs Book of Martyrs has place in
almost every library, and is an interest,"
ing and instructive volume. President
Johnson is furnishing material for some
future Fox to give the world series of
brief biographies of martyred heroes
and statesmen-plucky fellows who suf-
fered for the Radical faith that was in
them. As each head rolls into the basket,
the newspapers of that party review,
from earliest boyhood, the lives and pub
lie services of these defunGt individuals.
We are already served with such Offices
of Stanton and Sheridan, and if the
President will increase the number Gas
he should) Parton, or some such machine
book>maker, could do the thing in
selling style. In fancy, we already
see ourselves gloating over pages
that recount how Eddy Stanton,
a sulky, bull-necked fellow of fifteen,
whipped all the little weakly boys at
school, and trained himselfiuto the art of
organizing victory as the Carnot of the
great American civil war; how little
bandy-legged Phil Sheridan, of Glow
birth and iron fortune" was known to
stand longer on his head on sand-pile
than any boy in his alley how Dan
Sickles, at ten years of age, was the most
perfect Nose and Syksey that New York
has ever produced; what marvellous
yarns Johnny Pope could spin out of home
material at very tender age; and many
other interesting details going to show
the precocity of the genius that Will
give them lustre as sanctifed mar
tyrs, and qualities either of them, in the
estimation of sympathizing Radicals, for
translation to the Presidency.

II appears that General Sherman has de-
sermined to finish his career before making
his pilgrimage to Mecca. The three hundred
thousand Indians he supposes will afford him
sufficient amusement for this year, and we
doubt not for the next year also, providing they
are shot by United States tactics. We are in
clined to think that General Meagher has turned
up in the right track, and that he will do
more solid Indian fighting, with few hundred
hardy volunteers, and produce better results,
than all the regulars taken together. 1t is
thus Indian fighting should be managed, and
the volunteer system will be found as effica-
cious in Indian warfare as il was during our
rebellion. The idea of loading our already
overburdencd people with an addition Of one
hundred and fifty millions OF dollars 10 our debt,
to support the War Department in a wasteful
and useless expenditure that will give no
tangible result, Is very bitter pill to the
taxpayers, especially so when it is perfectly
evident that all along our frontiers there are
to be found the finest elements for Indian fight
ing in existence; and il the Governors Of
States and Territories were allowed to make
use Of them. we could, at q very tri6ing ex-
pense, teach the savages valuable and last
ing lesson. General Sherman could then be
spared to follow in the track of the faithful,
and we, knowing his affection for HERALD cor
respondents, might send one in his suite to
