The, stock upon this farm is worth jour
ney of fifty miles to see, if for no other pur-
pose than to crafty the sight Of the practical
farmer. Here he can learn much of the util-
ty Of thorough breeding aud get lessons in
this art, which is now attracting the attention
of many Of the best farmers of our country.
Taking the stock altogether, the stud Of horses,
herd Of cattle, Aocks Of sheep and goats, and
pens of swine, no such display can be found
elsewhere ID New England. The soil Of the
farm is strong, well adapted to grass and or
charding, though naturally rocky Large
quantities Of stone have been removed and
placed into heavy walls dividing the farm into
convenient fields.
The mansion Of Mr. Chenery is some two
miles from his farm, built in a natural grove
Of oak and walnut, interpreted with cultiyat-
ed evergreens, with a back ground Of fine
garden plots both for the useful and orna-
mental, with a spacious hot-housc and grape
ry, all indicating the same liberal expenditure
we had seen on the farm, and with the gener-
Gus hospitality of his dinipg-room, gave MS
ample proof Of whole-souled man Of ex-
banded views; though in part a city denizen,
yet knows how to adorn a country residence
make life pleasant, and a farm profitable.
On our return TO Boston near night we
took a different route from which we came
out in the morning and passed the noted
Gushing farm in Watertown, recently sold for
100000, and the splendid place of Mr.. Adj
ans Of express notoriety, once poor boy
Of Andover in this county, and hoster in
Woodstock now millionaire. Such is the
reward Of genius, energy and perseverance.

Tribute Of Respect.

Extract from the Minutes.
At the last regular communication Of Friendship
Lodge. No. 9, the worshipful Master having an
nounced the death Of Brother SAMUEL vALEN-
TINE, the following preamble and resolutions were
offered by Brother ASHER D. coHEs, Senior War
den. and being seconded, were unanimously
adopted:
Death has taken from us one whose life has been
spent in doing good; q hand is cold which has for
years been active in dispensing charity; heart Is
silled which never throbbed but with love and SYM
rathy for his Kind. Our late Brother, Past Master
and Secretary, SAMUEL VALENTINE, has been
gathered to his Fathers; his place In the world and
in this Lodge is felt 10 be vacant As in the world
he served his fellowman with alacrity and zeal,
in this Lodge whether as Master or member, his
soul was in his work, and he labored an honest,
Jealous workman in the cause of Masonry. he
loved Masonry because the universally Of the
charity It teaches and dispenses so well accorded
with his own philanthropy. 1t was this love which
induced him in his old age, but q few months ago,
to become our Secretary. he desired no higher
Office. Such he had filed. His ambition was to do
good, and to be useful perfect Mason, he carried
out the tenets Of the Order. Believing firmly in the
resurrection Of the dead and final responsibility Of
man to God, he prepared himself in this life by the
constant practice OF charity, for admission to that
Lodge eternal not built by human hand, over which
the Great Architect presides. He IS dead, leaving
behind memory of kind acts and virtuous deeds,
transmitting legacy to his family the thousand
blessings osthe poor whose suerines he allevated,
and Of the NEEDY whose wants he supplied.
As an expression of our grateful recognition Of his
valuable and manifold services, be it
Resolred, Tha; in the death Of our late brother.
SAMUEL VALENTINE, tn. State has lost worthy cih-
zen; society one of its most useful members; the
poor one of their warmesr friends, and this Lodge
a bright and perfect Mason.
Resolred, That page in the minute book of the
Lodge be suitably inscribed to his memory.
Resolred That the Gesk of the Secretary be cloth.
ed in mourning, at all our regular meetings, until
our next anniversary.
Resolved, That the Brethren Of this Lodge tender
to the bereaved widow and fairly their heartfelt
sympathy; that copy Of the Preamble and Resolu-
tons be sent to them under the seal of this Lodge,
and be published in the daily papers of this city.

Editors Daily Neos-SIRs Having heard it rumor-
ed in political circles that l. in company with anoth
er gentleman waited on q certain gentleman Of this
city recently, rendering him the nomination and
promising him the support Of the Republican party
for the Mayoraty at the election soon to take place,
which prompted parties to informally nominate the
Hon. G. PlLsBUnY at public meeting last week,
beg leave to Say, through your columns, that this
statement so far as it refers to me, Is utterly false;
if it was true no amount OF bullying would cause
me to deny It.
Some malcontents must have originated this and
other like statements who desire to build up repu-
taton or to repair one that has not been enviaole,
and are Indifferent as to the means they employ.

anything in connection with this or any other Office
To have done so would have been an exhibition Of
weakness-an arrogant assumption which could only
be equaled by the idle boasts OF those who wish to
prescribe" for ills of the body polite, without know
ing anything Of the character Of the disease, or
the remedial agents to "administer."
word of advice to my Republican friends, espe-
cialy those who have so much at stake In the pend
ing elections: Elevate no man 10 official position,
State or municipal, who has not given evidence that
he will mee out even-handed justice to all classes;
who will not forget that there arc more than one

sE1sos-ALMosT A F1aHr-GREAT EFFoRE BY

ACCEPT THE WAR OFFICE.
WASHINGTON, April 2S.-The impeachment
Court continued. The following is the text OF
Summers proposition "Whereas, it is pro-
yided in the Constitution Of the United States
that in trial of impeachment, no person
shall be convicted without the concurrence OF
two-thirds of the members present; Snt&his
requirement Of two-thirds Is not extended 70
the Judgment on such trials, which remains
subject to the general law that a majority pre-
walls. Therefore, in order to remove any doubt
therefrom, be it ordered that any question
which may arise with regard to the judgment,
shall be determined by a majority Of the menf>
bers present"
The following is among the sentences Of
Manager Williams speech: 'Look at the
bloody counsel Of New Orleans, and show
mercy to loyalty and innocence, and not to
treason"
After Williams concluded, Butler explained
the manager's connection with the Alta Vela
affair, alluding to Nelson's reference thereto.
Butler said it was not only suppression OF
truth, but suggestion Of falsehood. Nelson
replied that this was not the time to measure
characters with Butler. This could be done at
some other time, and Mr.. Nelson Gid not think
he would suffer from the comparison. Con-
siderable excitement ensued. Logan wanted
to say something, but Senator Conkling, who
was setting near him, said: General, be
quiet" and the affair subsided with much
suppressed wrath.
Mr.. Evarts then commenced, and his first
accents hushed the excited assemblage. Evarts
spoke until the adjournment, and will resume
tomorrow. synopsis OF his speech is utter
" impossible. Abiding to the parties to the
trial-to the House as the accuser; to the
President as the accused; to the Senate as ju-
rors, and the Chief Justice as the presiding
judge-the speaker sait.: ave want no volun-
teers. Let no one rai.'s 80 much as little
finger to jostle the combatants. Arguing
the judicial character Of the proceedings, he
said that to the managers who professed to
speak in behalf of all the people, he would re-
ply in one sentence, representing but one
voice, 'Thou shalt not take the name of the
Lord thy God in vain."
The Indications are that Hon. Jefferson Da-
!, Wis will not be tried at the next term of the
court.
1t is stated on the public streets, but on
doubtful authority, that General Grant has ad-
vised General Schofeld to decline the War De-
partment, and to request the President to
withdraw his name.
A full Cabinet meeting was held to-day.
IL THE HOUSE bills were introduced admit
ting North Carolina and Louisiana on their
adoption of the fourteenth article, and provid-
ing that there shall be no exclusion Of classes
from suffrage who are now entranchised, and
no admission Of those disfranchised by the
fourteenth article until restored as therein pro-
viAed.

RICHMOND, April 2s.-General Scho6eld TO-
day appointed John E. Stokes, Esq, Mayor OF
Portsmouth.
John Millward, one Of the proprietors of the

Governor Wells was serenaded tonight in
celebration Of the Republican victories at the
South. General schofeld has issued an order
