Worth of q Local Paper.

We read recently an article In the Freeport
Journal wherein farmer, who neglected to
take the county paper, went to market one
Monday with load of 50 bushels of wheat,
and soldYi it to TIE first person who offered
him one cent per {bushel more than he had
sold load for The week before and with
part of the money purchased apiece OF mus
lin of 40. yards. for which he paid II cents
per yard. On returning home at night he met
y neig hbor who had sold his wheat at an ad-
vance of ten cents a bushel, and bought the
same kind Of muslin for Is cents. The Sec
ond farmer like q prudent man, was
regular subscriber to the county
paper, and learned through its columns that
wheat had advanced ten cents, and had also
learned where to buy goods the cheapest.
he made more than enough to pay his sub
scription twice over. from reading one num-
Der of the paper. Our farmers can Judge
from the case above cited, whether 1t pays to
take their county paper. ~ -

An exchange relates the following. A
young lady who had several admirers,
was at a patty the other evening and fell
in with two admiring SWANS. While
sitting in the back part of the room with
both the lovers, each lover concluded to
slip his hand under her shawl and try what
effect squeezing on the hand would have.
He went for it and succeeded. Great day,
how happy he was. He squeezed and
she squeezed, apparently she felt glorious
too. After quite . joyful time spent in
that way, the lady threw back her shawl,
and revealed TO the crowd standing near.

Mining Under the Sea.

There is vast copper mine in
England, where shafts extend many
hundred yards under the sea. The
moaning of the waves as they dash
against the rock is forever sounding
in those gloomy aisles.z When the
storms come, the sound of the waters
become SO terrific, that even the
boldest miners cannot stay below, but
leave their work and come out upon
the earth. Overhead are masses Of
bright copper streaming through the
gallery in all directions, traversed BY
3 network Of thin red veins of iron,
and over all the salt water drips,
drips down from tyny crevices in the
rock. Immence wealth of metal is
contained in these roofs but no min
er dares give it another stroke with
his pickaxe, Already there has been
one days work toe much upon it,
asa huge wedge Of wood driven into
the rock bears witness. The wedge
is all that keeps book the sea from
bursting in upon them. Yet there
are three tiers where men work day
by day, not knowing but at some
fatal hour the food may be upon
them, rendering all escape an hoe
less as it was in the days OF Noah.

The True Story Of Butler and
,s1 ~ the Twiggs Swords. Fas

x Gen ]. NJ, Shafer, who was chief quar-
termaster in the Army of the Gulf during
Buffers administration at New Orleans,
makes the following statement in the
Tribune: -sAessE .AAA. 8&9
cit was my good fortune and privilege
to BIZ. assigned to the staff of Gen Butter
l-whom I had never met before by the
War Department, and am thus enabled
to speak from an official and personrl &C.
quaintance with the facts. Gen. Butler
and his staff did take possession OF Gen.
Twiggs's house, and for brief period
lived in it, until more convenient quarters
could be obtained. Upon taking posses
sion a correct and complete inventory of all
effects and yaluables belonging to traitor
Twiggs was taken by order Of Gen. But
Ter, and the property boxed up to await
the action of the government. An invent
DRY of the furniture of the house, as we'll
as that of all other abandoned houses, was
made by the Provost Msrshal, who, was
held responsible for their safe keeping.
That was the course pursued toward the
property Of all description abandoned by
rebel owners. No other property of any
kind was ever seized, to my knowledge.
When Gen. Butler was relieved he request
ed Gen. Banks to detail an officer to ex
anime. and make an inventory Of GILthe
plate which fell into our hands bY taking
possession Of abandoned houses. General
Banks promptly detailed Capt. Mcclure
of his personal staff to take possession of
and receipt for this property, and to my
knowledge, when receipted for, every
article On the original inventory was there.
Gen. Butler has, and has always had this
staff officers receipt in his possession; a!
certified copy is filed as the usual voucher
iu the proper bureau of the Treasury De-
partment. Every piece of plate or other,
property which fell into the hands of
Gen. Butler Wilde commanding the Army
have no doubt that Captain Mcclure rem
-dered IA satisfactory account of his stew.
ardship to his commanding officer, or to.
the government at Washington 49o5a
..Now for the swords Gen. Butler re-
garding them as trophies of war suitable
for such action, sent them to Washington.
Congress took charge of them, passed al
resolution corsigning one of them to-
West Point, to be there reserved as warn
ing to the cadets of the fate of all trai !
tors, and voted the other to Gen. Butler.
This disposition was not ratified, believe,
by the Senate, owing to the early adjourn
ment of that body, and the swords have
since remained i'm the Treasury @ General
Butler was solicited by certain parties, to
Tintercede for their restoration, as they are
valuable, and promptly |refused-as he
has consistently done when asked to favor
traitors and rebels, Hence the lawsuit
brought by the woman, Miss Florence,
who is moi, the neice of Gen. Twiggs.'
