Making Sacrifices for the
Country.

The Philadelphia Bulletin says
that while Gen. Grant was in the
Cabinet, an incident occurred
which adds another proof of his
worthiness for the highest honors
of the Republic. At one Of the
Cabinet meetings, Mr.. johnson
was indulging In some of his char.
acteristic self glorifca;ions over
the sacrifices" which he had made
for tho country, and one or more
Of his Cabinet joined in the same
strain Of self-praise. Gen. Grant
said: "Well. gentlemen, so far as l
am concerned, bave never made
any sacrifices for the country. The
country has always done more for
me than / have done for it. Isup
pose | would be ready TO make
sacrifices. but / have never had
the opportunity; and l think that,
as ageneral rule, orr public men
get more from the country than
they give to IT,"

The Cincinnati Times notices a
sample of molasses manufactured
by S. W. Bloom, Brownsvillc Ind,
from the stalks of the common
white flint corn. 1t was superior
in favor to that manufactured from
sorghum. though slightly charac-
terised by the favor pertaining to
that commodity. Tho yield per
acre from the stalks is nearly
equal to that of sorghum. but they
should be cut when the corn IS In
milk to get the greatest yield from
them. Sweet corn might be sub
sLituted and the ears marketed and
the stalks devoted to molasses pur-,
poses.

from papers found in his possession
to hive been 4teacllsr of Greek and
Latin, and only about eight months
frca France, was found dead just
below town. It appeared from.the
inquest tffas his name was Louls Fl.
Leroy; that he had been around this
town and Maysville for several days
past, begging for some employment
that would support him, As be
could not speak English, but could
write a little, he made his. wants
known in that way. Last night he
went to sleepnear a bank some thirty
or forty feet high, just below the town,
and in some way unknown to the jury
must have fallen and broken his neck.
