The spring of 1870 is extraordinarily
backward. Generally in respect to gar.
den vegetables we are a month or SIX
weeks behind our ordinary position at this
time of the year, and if we have the Gus
tomary dry weather in May the product
of our kitchen gardens win be small.
This is due to the destruction of the crops
by the severe weather of the early part Of
this month. English peas in Macon which
ought, at this time, 10 be in abundant
blossom are now generally just peeping
above the ground from second sowing.
Asparagus is just about beginning to pro-
uuce wen, UIJ s-a.~,.-<7y -1EIs.si0 W.,
res0lute attempts at production as signally
checked by black frosts. Spinach is now
ready for the pot.
In the way of staple crop planting We
are, in this region, fortnight or three
weeks behind time. About the ninth of
March is the usual time, in this immedi-
ate region for seeding the corn crop, and
we think planters have, within a few
days only, been engaged in corn planting.
We apprehend, however, that the prepa-
ton of the land is pretty thoroughly and
generally made, and seeding will there
fore go on expedItiously. We look for
severe cold snaps yet Spring has not set
in for good The mercury has been
ranging about sixty the last few days

THE REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA.

A report was read before the American
Colonization Society IN New York on Sun
day, March 20, showing that from the
first departure of cOlOred men from this
country for Liberia, who were shipped at
New York in 1920, the tide of emigration
increased every year until up to the pres
ent date the number of colonists landed on
its shores amounted to 10000 freedmen
and unfortunates rescued from the cap
tured slaye-traders by our war vessels.
During the last four years 2, 400 persons
have been sent thither, and nearly twice
as many applications were made by those
DESTROYS of returning to the land of their
fathers. The population of Liberia
amounts to nearly 600, 900, all doing well,
enjoying the rights and privileges of a
republic, whose constitution is framed
after that of the United States. These
colored people have college with thirty
three students at present, and there are
fifty churches in the country. Now the
society holds 900 applications for passage
to the new land, and although it owns
ship, and a building in Washington, yet
needs $50, 600 to carry on the good work
of colOnizing Africa with intelligent ne
grceS.

"Shi ley Dare" in the Chicago Republican.
Leaving the eminent, polished Demo-
cratic leaders on the left till another
sketch-day, and combining ones attention
to the right wing of the assembly, it is
easy to detect the ruling spirits there
That man in the great sombrero We met
in the rotunda is here, with portly domin-
ance not at all abated. On the contrary, he
scars and swells, tossing his head back 80
far that it shows that he must have had
good practice at it, shaking it till one
fears the round cheeks with drop off;
initiating his bosom, and all but strutting
in that sublimely arrogant manner.
He reminds one of Maurice Retch's
caricatures where the head of a cock is
set on the body of great toad. Those
smooth, sohd curves of person resemble a
toad walking upright, while the nose and
high held bald crest suggest i1resistibly
the boys title of ''Cock of the House. 7"
There is affluence in the mans very air
self-esteem, and an ambition not so much
stimulated as provoked by success. 1t all
the apples of honor come falling one by
one into mans hands, why shall he not
set his heart on the golden cluster at the
top of the treel His voice is well heard,
but has something harsh and displeasing
in 1t, his manner grandly self-confdent.

A PEN PORTRAIT OF THE ssPUC,
MACE.

In form, Mace probably surpasses any
thing of the male persuasion ever seen in
this country. He stands, one would
guess, about five feet eight and half
inches, with a relative proportion of head
neck, shoulders, waist, arms and limbs,
which together absolutely realize the idea
of manly beauty. Clad in the perfect
fitting snowy tights, he looks the marble
manhood of sculptor's dream. He is
not reduced in flesh, having not yet en-
tered into training with view to meeting
Tom Allen in the ring, and his muscu-
lar development is therefore not promi-
nently brought out; but his figure is
clearly cut and compact, and his leg, from
the hip to the ankle, is as delicately mold
ed and shapely as ballet dancers. In
motion he is marvellOusly quick, his
changes of position being effected with
rapidity and precision almost superhuman.
This is doubtless the result of long prac-
tice, but it none the less shows the flash
of lightning which Tom Allen has to deal
with, coupled with fistic science and tao
tics second to those of no man in the
world. Mace is making hosts of friends
in his extended tour previous to preparing
for the great battle, and one can scarcely
help a feeling of regret at finding this
splendid representative of physical per-
lection to be merely brutal prize-fghier.

WASHINGTON, March 25.-The Nashville

work endeavoring to counteract the innu-
fnerable false reports which have been put

set. They speak hopefully of the result,
but viii not leave until they think the
danger is over. Reconstruction was never
popular with the Republican members of

the testimony which had been showered I'M
contradicted upon them. Now they have the
evidence Ct Federal officers and Repubi-
cans, as weA as others, gentlemen of high
character, from your State to disprove the
horrible stories which the negroes, under
the direction of hungry ofice-seekers, have
given to the Reconstruction Committee.
The RAIDS from Tennessee are reported to
be quarreling among themselves. Fletcher
appears to be much disappointed. Your
people should forward from every official
and reliable source the strongest evidence
of the obedience to law in Tennessee to
strengthen the hands of our friends in the

DUEI,UNG.

At certain evening party, at which
Sidney Smith was present, the converse
ton turned upon dueling. One of the
party told of an Irish clergyman who was
much offended at being called ''plural-
ist,n and said, eff you don't take care you
may discover l am duelist." Sidney
Smith took this up and said: 81 suppose
there is scarcely clergyman in Ireland
who has not been out. l am told they
settle these matters when the aftenoon's
service is over. I've seen a parsons chal.
lengc: Sir, meet me the first Sunday

Another story on the same subject was
of well-known and distinguished notary
at Paris, who. while breakfasting at the
Cafe de Foy, INDUCED in some loud ami
madyersions upon Marshal Marmont''
conduct at Essonnc. ''Sir, you shall give
me satisfaction" said, suddenly, another

approached the table with his moustacb'

THE TRADE In MASKS.

Masks are an important article of trade
in Paris. The houses which are engaged
in this industry (says the Pail Mall Ga
zette) are generally respectable and long
established houses, who make their
money out of folly in the soberest way.
Paris produces masks, but the foreigner
buys them. South America, New Or
leans, New York, and especially Buenos
Ayres and Brazil, are among the princi-
pal customers-the Carnival being OBJ
served there with great enthusiasm.
Partisan makers also receive orders from
America for masks representing the
types of the human race-negroes, Jews.
Englishmen, Germans, etc. These masks
are used at Free Masons' meetings. and
doubtless represent the alliance of all ma.
tions in Free Masonry. Italy makes hel
own masks. Russia orders but few, as il
pays but little attention to the Carnival
but Protestant England requires a grea
many for the anniversary of the Gun
powder Plot. Whatwi one festival anC
what with another, this trade is neye,
quite at standstill. The worlxmen en-
gagged in it are paid from five francs t.
six francs day; the women from two
francs to three francs. The commones
mask, worth one sou, passes through the
hands Of eight workpeople.

AErNIAN AnnRESs.

The Council of the Fenian Brotherhood
of which Mr.. John Savage is chief execu-
tive, has prepared an address which says
in substance that financially the Brother
hood is growing stronger, and the Council
is confident that the grand object of
Fenianism viii he attained finally; moi
can the Brotherhood or any of its mem
bers ever join any organization or man in
an attack ON Canada, or on any other ter
ritory on this side of the Atlantic, except
with the consent of the United States
that the organization as now constituted
shall never be dissolved until the object OF
Fenianism shall have been fully attained /;
that every concession made by the British
Ministry to Ireland proves that England
has been in the wrong and Ireland in the
right. The supreme desire OF every Irish
nationalist, the address affirms, is to re-
store peace, prosperity and happiness, to
his country; that national salvation can
never be achieved except through self
government, and that this cannot be at
tanned until Ireland shall be no longer sub
iect to Great Britain.
