FRoM THE FAMILY OF BENZ. TAYLER.

ECCENTRIC DIvINE.-The Rev. Zeb
Twitchel was the most noted Metho
dist preacher in Vermont, for 'shrewd
and laughable sayings. In the pulpit
he maintained a suitable gravity oil
manner aud expression, but out of the
pulpit he overlowed with fun. 0cca-
sionally he would, if emergency seemed
to require, introduce something queer
in a ermon for the sake of arousing
the tagging attention of his hearers.
Seeing that his audience was getting
sleepy, he paused in his discourse and
discussed as follows:
Brethren, you haven't any idea of
the sulerings of our missionaries in the
new settlements, on account of the
mosquitoes. The mosquitoes in some
of these regions are enormous. A great
many of them would weigh a pound,
and they will get on logs and
bark when the missionaries are going
along"
By this time all ears and eyes were
open, and he proceeded to finish his
discourse.
The next day one of his hearers call
ed him to account for telling lies in the
pulpit.
There never was a mosquitoe that
weighed a pound" he said.
But 1 didn't say one of them would
weigh a pound, l said a great many,
and l think a million of them would"
but you said they barked at the
missionaries"
mo, no brother, Isaid they would
get on logs and bark"

1t is alleged that the recent attempts
to cultivate tea in Georgia have been
highly successful. The soil and eli.
mate of portions of all the States south
Of Virginia are adapted to its growth,
and according to the estimates made
some years ago it can by the aid of q
little simple machinery for rolling the
leaves be produced at a cost of from
five 10 eight cents per pound.
Tea leaves are none the better for be-
ing rolled; they only sell better TO the
s'outside barbarians." They need roast
ing. but this can be safely done in a
steam jacket"
in 1859 the United States Govern
ment expended several thousand dol
lars in importing tea seeds, which were
terminated on their ocean passage in
Waidian cases, and subsequently, freely
distributed in the southern States.
These are the plants we now hear about
occasionally, for not more than one or
two specimens of Junius Smiths intro
6uction in former years have been
preserved. Two seedlings were plan
ted at No. $50 NJ street north, Wash
ington, in 1860. The object being to
test their hardness, they have never
been sheltered from the summers
heat or winters cold, and vet, though
not large, they could be made prOduc-
tive; and the experiment may be pro-
pounceG successful.

AN L DOCUHENT,

The ftHowlng rhymes were written by o lady
near Philadelphia. about the year 1900, and
sent as a letter 10 Mr.. Jacob EEalt, a pioneer
settler Of Rowland. on his return east of tue
Alleghenies.
To Jacob Etoah-
I was glad to hear thy brother-in-law tell,
Thee had got home alive and well,
Through many dangers, ] should guess,
While. thee was in the wilderness.
Where wild quadrupeds claim a right,
Where savage Indians took in hand
The Ratchet to defend the land:
And many a one has lost his life
BY Tomahawk and Scalping knife,
Thy safe return l much did doubt;
Indeed one while I'd give thee out.
But now all doubts are from me fed,
Ny good young friend is not yet dead
hope ere long to cross the Nile
And SIT with thee a little while,
And hear thee tell where thee has been,
And what strange wonders thee has seen:
How things did look where thee did 60
About the river. Ohio.
How thee did like the soil and air.
And if thee means to settle there.
What sort Of people did thee find,
If they are civil good and kind,
Or where they rude. unpublished men,
That could not read nor use the pen?
And what religion they do own?
Or does thee think that they have none?
If thee saw any people there.
That IN there palms grew lock of hair.
Which if they did, pray tell me true,
For such a one l never knew
How thee did fare. and what expence.
With many things Of consequences,
long to hear thy history,
For on thy word l can rely.
Ifthee asserts thee saw fine fish;
And one BY chance Jumped in thy dish.
shan't dispute thy word one mite:
A genteel fb is csll'd polite.
I send my love to thee in rhymes,
And welcome thee from foreign chimes,
Hoping thou art now in health
And wishing thy increase in wealth.

following correspondence. 1t seems
to US that it resembles something
that has recently come from Wash
ington:
FREE AND EAsY.-Mr. Plethora,
who is at the Springs. finding his
man eems-left in charge of the
fine town mansion-was inclined to
carry out his own views, instead OF
his masters addressed the following
note to the latter:
As no longer need your services, you
will please quit my house. I.
To which, Jeems forwarded the
following answer:
Sir--You may not need my services, but
l like your house, and need your money
SO shall not quit until your neighbors
have decided upon the matter. JEEMS.

The Extravaganza of the
Radical Party.

Secretary McCulloch lately ap-
pointed committee to examine in
to the affairs of the United States
Treasury. They have reported and
announced that since the Republi-
can party took possession of the
Government on the Fourth of March.
1861. six years and four months 100
the amount of national funds that
have passed through the Treasur-
crs hands, is FOURTEEN THOU
SAND AND FIVE HUNDRED
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS a.
500, 900, 00O!)
The entire valuation Of the whole
United States and Territories by
the census of 1860 was but a little
over sixteen thousand millions.
Thus we have it that during the
last six years and four months of
Radical rule, funds to the amount of
more than six-sevenths of the en-
tire property of the United States
and Territories, have been wrung
from the pockets of the people and
passed through the Treasury of the
United States
Look at these figures in another
form:

Thus the Republicans have ex

party carried the country success
fully through two great wars, on,
with Great Britain, and the othe
with Mexico, besides through innu

Radical newspapers are charging
the responsibility of the murder OF
Mrs. Surratt upon President john
son. At that time johnson was in
full communion with the radical
party. Considering the fact that
he was then heartily endorsed by
all the radicals we are inclined to
believe that the charge of having
murdered an innocent woman is not
without some foundation. Else how
would Johnson found radical favor?
