The MULE TRADE.-Next to the
rise in cotton, the revival of the
mule trade has been the sensation
OF the fall and winter with the
farmers of Tennessee and Ken
lucky. 1t is almost impossible to
meet the demands for mules. Buy
ers have been securing the entire
country in every nook and corner,
on the hunt for mules. All first
class mules were soon snatched
up, and finally even, heads"
were taken at first class prices
The railroads have been taxed to
furnish transportation and the re-
port is that the planters still want
more mules. All this, as an evil
dence of returning life and hope
in the South, is very gratifying,
but there is somewhat of initiation
in the prices paid. Such prices
cannot reasonably be expected to
! continue in future seasons. How
ever, the demand should turn the
attention OF Tennessee farmers to
Embarrassing again. In 1860 Ten
nesSee raised more mules than any
State in the Union. Of course she
will not stand first in report of
1870, because almost every jack in
the State was carried off dur
ing the war. That a few years
will see this business largely re-
vlyed, however, cannot be doubted
by any one who has faith in the
future prosperity of the cotton
planters. Tennessee can raise
cheaper and better mules for the
cotton planters than any other
State. In time therefore Tennes
see farmers will furnish the great
bulk of the mules for the South

In the Battle.

So you are disappointed:
Life is not what it seemed,
When in the morning marches
You shut your eye and dreamed,
And heard the far-off voices,
Which loudly called to you
To battle for the beautiful,
The earnest and the true.
All me /! how brave a soldier
You surely meant to be
You said that many a battlefield
Your flashing sword should see.
With many noble purpose,
With many grand desire,
Your heart heat like tocsin.
Your soul was all on fire,
As those who from the mountains
Look on the piains below,
And see the charging squadrons,
And hear the bugies blow,
So you stood, flushed and eager:
Up childhood's peaceful height
Stole sweet life's martial music
And lured you to the strife.
And now your disappointed
The sun has upward climbed,
The dew is off the grasses,
And wounded many times,
Heart-sick with varying fortune,
Beat back by cruel foes,
You grasp your sword but lightly,
You strike bat feeble blows.
My brother! O my brother
Take heart, be not dismayed;
This is no mimic warfare,
No holiday parade /;
BY memories of the morning,
By hopes that fired you then,
Fight till the battle closes,
Die uih the brauest men,
Who knows? Perhaps hereafter,
When honor calls her roll,
You. all your life private"
May find upon that scroll
Your name has long been craven;
And oh, how green the palm
Which Truth will give her heroes
In Heavens eternal calm

aU Once when I was ex-
ceedingly poor and needy,
writes Horace Greeley, in a
season Of commercial revulsion
and panic, l opened a letter
from Utica, and found therein
five dollars, which the writer
asked me to receive in satisfac-
ton of a loan ofthat sum which
[ had made him-a needy
Stranger-on an occasion which
herecalled to my remembrance.
Perplexed by so unsual a mes
sage and especially byreceiving
it at such a time, when every
one was seeking to borrow-no
one condescending to pay
scanned the letter more close

he is done up in poetry and prose;
he is the hero alike of love and
war, of politics and of letters, and
the grand pivot upon which Ameri-
can politics revolve. No wonder
the barbarians of Hayti and Do
mingo cast longing eyes across
the narrow gulf and beg for annex
alton! If we have suffered and
spent so much for the dark chill
dren who have never left the
Federal fireSide, shall we not kill
the fatted calf and rejoice and
make merry when these prodigal
sons present themselves for our
bounty and protection? The ar
gument is. irresistible, the logic
unaswerable, and we see no rea-
son why the Committee on For
eign Relations should refuse to
accept the conclusion. The Radi-
cal party insist that the negro is
a good thing, and if he is, the more
we have of him the better. Let
Hayti and Domingo, be received
into the Union at earliest possible
date; let them send over their
delegation of Senators and Repre-
sentatiyes and assist in the gov
eminent of "the land of the free
and the home of the brave" and
let us all be thankful that we live in
a day and country in which these
things are not only possible but
patriotic. And when Hayti and
Domingo are wrapped in the stars
and stripes, it cannot be long be.

and the grand work begun by the
lamented John Brown brought to
triumphant conclusion MissOur,

Grass Culture in the South.

There are SO many acres of
land in the South that yield no
income to the owners, which
are capable of producing good
crops of grass, and of raising
stock worth indefinite millions
ayear, that this advantage can
not be too often nor to earnest
ly presented to our Southern
readers. Wherever the cereal
grass called wheat, or the herb
age grass called cheat or chess,
will grow, there other import
ed grasses, coming from the
climate where the white race of
men originated, may be raised
at a profit for stock-growing
purposes. Its absurd to say
or believe that the grasses
called oats, rye, barley, wheat
and cheat (all of which are as
foreign to our soil and climate
as any European or African of
the genus honeO) are better
adapted to Southern climate
than orchard grass, blue grass,
meadow tescue, rye grass, oat
grass, barley grass, timothy,
meadow foxtail, crested dogs
tail, redtop, and a score of 9TH
ers that might be named.@More
grass will grow in II months
in the South than in the icy
North, per acre; and Southern
farmer have only to turn their
attention to the cheap produc-
ton of this great source of
homemade manure, of beef,
mutton, wool, horses and mules,
to command Northern markets,
and add ten fold to the value
of their plantations.
} Nothing depreciates the val
lie of land so much in the esti-
nation Of every white man
from the Northern States and
Europe as its naked surface and
the forbidding want of green
heritage. Cover the extreme
nakedness Of the land with a
carpet of Bermuda grass, il
nothing better is available
Rightly managed, this South
} ern grass will keep a large
, amount of farm stock. It will
pay a large interest on the
present price of farms, with
very little labor and the con-
, slant Improvement of the soil
) An annual and reliable income
: from land with little cultiva.
7 ton and few laborers, is what
the South most needs in an ag.
ricultural way. Grass culture
will confer this great benefit
