@- There seems to be mutiny in Gov.
Geary's camp. Fitzerald's City Item, al
ways intensely radical, pays the following
tribute to Geary:
"Poor Geary is travelling and begging
day and night to secure a denomination.
He coaxes, implores, promises, threatens,
whines and cries. Never before has such n
spectacle been seen in this State. Mr.. W.
W. Ketchum and General Harry White, of
Indiana, are his competitors-both ADLER
and better men, and neither of them liars. "

CHURCH FULL-An. .ex- Governor relates
good story of man whose life had not
been entirely unspotted, who applied to
worthy deacon for admission into the
church. Unwilling to offend him, and yet
not inclined to receive him, the deacon re-
piled, The church is full just now when
there is a vacancy will notify you"

During the war, Georgian soldier while
in camp near the house of his sweetheart,
sent her boquet with card attached, up.
on which was the following poetic effusion
''Axcept this bokay from a feIler
Who oft has hurd the kanons beller,
Has listened to the flies tooten,
And helped to doc heepof shooter;
Has seen the war clouds darkly rise,
Like fifty buzzards when they iiiz,
Who now is bigger than his dad.
And wants to marry nifty bad."a

MY LOVE ANDI.

And we sat in the quiet evening,
All alone, my love and 1,
And she played on her organ softly,
And listened silently,
For Jhe sang me gay song sweetly,
Like chorus of wedding chimes,
And oh in the music ringing
Came the thoughts of other times
In dream was still beside her,
In the summer woods and dells,
And 1 led her on in the sunlight,
To the sound of village bells.
And she sang me grave song sadly,
That was soft, and sweet, and low,
Ofthe good books golden promise,
That wine and oil should flow.
In dream 1 was still beside her,
And / saw her, yet, the same,
Though the promise was for others,
And those good things never came.
Then she sang me ap old song softly.
Like a sigh from a dying breath,
And twas only the worlds old story
OF flove, and life, and death.
And I thought as sat beside her,
As heard her gently sing,
That with such sweet thrilling voices
The choirs of angels ring,
So we sat in the quiet evening,
All alone, my love and /,
And she played on her organ softly,
And listened silently.

hS~ Mile Lusgel, the pretty French nc.

of ST. Petersburg. .s.--.- .....-...,,.
The Prince popped the question" in
somewhat unusual manner There was q
fair at the st. Petersburg French Theatre,
for the benefit Of the French hospital. -
Mile Lusgel presided at one OF the stands
OF the fair, and Prince Tobstoi bantsringly
asked her how much she would take for
kiss. Fl. s}4s p
She glanced at him rather sternly, and
replied that she would not kiss any man
but her betrotL l.
The prince passed on, but returned to
Mile Lusgel's stand a quarter Of an hour
afterwards, and said rather thoughtfrlly
to the young actress
"Will You permit me to ask you another
question, Mademoiselle ?" -'.e=-
with pleasure, sir II" 1A'''L1
Have you betrothed ?" di!l
She eyed him moment. with surprise.
and said then, with blush and smile,
'No, sir" -
"Would you like to have one!
''That depends on circumstances, " she
said, laughing. '''@ ''''.A-
"Well, then, would you take me7" So
saying he handed her his card ''~
She was greatly astonished, and finally
stammered out that she would give him an
answer the next day. E''sr GaJl2F

After the pea is up high enough to pillow,
run the bar of the pillow as close as possible
to the plant, blowing out the middle as you
would corn. After the lapse Of ten or
twelve days, pillow the second time. Then

the pea net is not to produce many nuts

FRIDAY MORNING, zAN'Y. 3. 1865
Trottine and Racing at Fairs.

There is an evident determination on
the part of such men as Horace Greedy,
and other would very moral agricutu-
ralisls, to exclude from fair grounds all
trials Of speed and wind of fast horses at
our State and County exhibitions. We
visited the past season one Of these very
moral and intellectually developed fairs
and a more perfect failure was never be-
held. No two horses were allowed to com
pete-all were moved and shown separate
Iy-after Mr.. Greeley's plan. There was
no interest,", no show of creditable move
ment, no really fine horses-and all drag
ged heavily on to all concerned.
A fair trial Of speed can only be had &,
by having the two or more competitors
side by side, bearing down on the "home
stretch :" then there is some excitement,
some vim and interest awakened, that calls
out many that otherwise would not attend.
When the Mr.. Greeleys have the fairs
all to themselves, with the exclusion Of
fast horses and "blacklegs," that he seems
SO much to labor for then they will have
to support chem by liberal donations from
their own pockets for the people will not
support them We think these exhibitions
should be open to all who wish to compete
no matter who it is not wise for Mr..
Greeley 10 call this or that man a "back-
Leg" or to attempt the ruling out Of "a class
of amusements that his ideas are too moral
4. l. IL ,

their observations or amusements while
there They do not think it is gambling to
trot or race at our fairs for purse and if
it Is gambling people CAM ''see H." and
will not be deprived of their amusement.
The writer Of this, never owned a fast
horse, or bet a dollar on race in the world
and seldom visits the course at any fair
yet, when we have done so, it did not les
sen the effect produced by Witnessing tie
tine textile fabrics, vegetables, or display
Of good Fl uits, or the bright beauties Of
Flora treasures. No, Sir, we feel Ike en-
Toying ourselves to suit ourselves and not
another, as long as we DO not tresspass
upon the rights or time Of others and we
can afford to let others 90 the same. If
Mr.. Greedy don't want to see the races at
the fairs or the "blacklegs," let him stay
away, or not visit that portion Of the
grounds. Don't attempt to pr-vent others
from enjoying themselves in their own way
the Western people will have this mat

Vention.
The Columbia Heard and Gazette de-
scribes very valuable invention by Mr..
Henry Ze.Iner, of Maury county, for which
that gentleman has received patent. 1t
is a seed sower. The editor Of the Herald
and Gazette visited Mr.. Zenner's farm,
where he saw the machine in operation.
He says:
1.-The machine was at work in the field
it consists of a seed sower, harrow and a
roller, is drawn by horses, and the driver
riding on the machine can regulate the
quantity of seed to be sown, and manage
the whole affair with as much ease as one
can handle the ordinary reaper or mower.
There is no question whatever as to the
practicability ofthis iuyeutiou. Mr.. I'll
ner has put his entire wheat crop with it,
and it is put in better than FIVE times the
amount Of labor could have done it by the
ordinary methods. Mr.. Zellner informs us
that it can be manufactured for fifty dol
lars. This invention cannot be overesti-
mated. Al any time we should have been
delighted 10 see it, but just at this juncture
when We are struggling to get our farmers
back to grass, we hail it as a providential
accession. 1t is SO arranged that any man
who is fit TO drive two horse wagon can
take it and SOW any kind Of grass or wheat
broad cast. Mr.. Zellner has conferred a
great benefit upon his brother farmers
We hope to see an agricultural mandatory
established here and we know Of no man so
we'll qualified to take charge of such an
establihment as Henry ZeIner This
sower is only one of several patents that
Mr. Zellner has secured another is a cot
ton OF hay press, which for simplicity,
lightness and efficiency surpasses anything
yet invented. His later patent is for a
hcmp-breaking and cleaning machine
which promises great excellence. Mr..
Zellner is as good farmer as he is a skill
full mechanic, as his farm shows, and lhis
accounts for the great success Of his "a
tents.
