the House and Senate, the wish was
frequently expressed in debate by Rad
ical Congressman, as we'll as by, leading
Republican journals, that the work of
reconstruction might be speedily and
finally completed. One after another
the ostracised States of the South had
been gathered within the fold of the
Union. Georgia alone was left open to
the pitiless reign of the bayonet or the
more corrupt and Ubiquitous rule of
characterless carpet-baggers. There
was certainly universal desire that
Georgia should be represented in Con-
gress, and that .f'ais should be written
to the history of reconstruction. Con-
corning the terms Of admission there
was, however, wide difference of Opin-
ion, which led to many days and nights
of weary debate. But in the last hours
Of the last session, a bill was passed
which it was thought would answer
the desired purpose. 1t was not suffi-
GENTLY explicit in its terms to suit the
Conservatives; neither did it perpetuate
in office the present State officials, and
consequently did not please the ultra
Radicals. Both parties were, however,
weary of the long continued wrangling,
and reconstruction had begun to stink
in the nOstrils of the nation. When
Congress adjourned in July last, it was
with the full conviction, in which the
public also shared, that everything
necessary had been done for restoring
the last of the "wayward sisters" to her
place in the family of States.
Now it appears that the sores of re-
construction are to be again uncovered.
Several Southern States stand charged
with the crime of having freely ex-
pressed themselves at the polls in the
recent elections, and with having rem
dered verdicts against the dominant
party. For this the penalty of further
reconstruction will be inflicted, if the
President, and the few bad men who
control him, have any influence with
Congress. The Union which only
needed Georgia to make it complete, is
to be rent again by enforced session.
The programme announced by Senator
Morton, comprises the expulsion of
North Carolina, Alabama, Arkansas,
Florida and Georgia, and the keeping
of these States without the pale until
they shall reverse their late judgments,
and meekly accept such officials
and representatives as the President
and his advisers may dictate. The
party WHICH claims to have carried on
IL gigantic war solely for the preserva-
ton of the Union, now proposes to in
augurate disuniOn unless it can hold the
States lately in rebellion as conquered
provinces. Such is the present openly
avowed policy of the Radical party. If
it succeeds in these aims, the INSTALL
ment of Grant as a military dictator
will soon follow.
Active measures for reconstruction
have not yet been inaugurated, nor
will they be, until the plan of "count-
ing inn defeated candidates has been
fully tested. Senator Brownlow was
the originator of this method of over
coming adverse majorities, and prac-
ticed it successfully in Tennessee. In
Texas, Gen. Reynolds found it to an
swer admirably, and by rejecting the

Culture Of the Parsnip and Carrot.

We have long thought that not nearly
so much attention was paid to the cultiva-
ton of the parsnip as its value would seem
to demand. 1t is true the crop requires
careful cultivation, and in the first wedding
requires considerable labor; but then no
root crop is more abundant or pays better.
The soil for this crop should be rich,
deep, and we'll pulverized. Subsoil blowing
it operates very beneticially. The seed
should be sown in drills, and the drills
some twenty-eight inches apart to admit of
4 small cultiyator between them. The
seed should be Of last years growth, and
should be covered very slightly. 1t takes
a considerable time for it to vegetate and
appear above ground, and then care must
be observed not to mistake the young
plants for weeds. After reaching two
inches in height the plants should be thin
ned out, leaving the strongest remain, to
about four inches apart. We have known
a thousand bushels to be raised to an acre;
five hundred are common crop.
They are very nutritious food for
horses, cattle and swine; the latter fatten
upon them better than upon any other
root, and are very fond of them.
Seed may be planted up to the 18th or
Goth of May. Some persons even plant
later, but it is not to be recommended.
AS to the culture of carrots, the same
details may be pursued. There is scarcely
shade of difference. The variety called
the Orange is the best for field culture.

SPRoUTIsd SWEET PoTAToEs.-"F First,
make frame of boards if the ground be
cold or heavy on the surface; if light or
sandy, dig out to the depth of eight to
twelve inches from the bottom of the bed
to the top of the frame in front, and twenty
six or twenty eight for back, to give good
slope or watershed four and half to five
feet from front to back; take good fresh
stable manure and coarse hay-bog hay is
best; first layer Of hay, then manure,
then repeat; pack it well to one foot in
depth, wet it slightly, cover with three
inches of sandy loan, lay in the potatoes
if small, whole; if large cut in two from
end to end, with outside down; cover with
one and half inches of light sand loan.
Leave SO till the potatoes begin to sprout,
then cover with the same to three inches
to insure good and plenty of fbrous roots;
when the plants are three inches high they
are ready to transplant to the hills or rows
for growing. Use glass or sash to give a
quicker growth to the plants; keep the
temperature in the frame from seventy-tive
to ninety, if possible. Make hot-beds from
April 10th to Goth, according to the season.
Usage ORANGE SEED.-The seed is to be
soaked in blood-warm water for week,
changing the water every day. At the end
of a week turn off the water, and cover the
seed with thick wooden cloths in order to
keep them moist, and set them near the
stove until they sprout. Examine the seed
daily, and stir them with the hand. When
minute sprouts appear just breaking
through, the seed should be sown. The
seed-bed should be good. light. rich land,
and the seeds be sown as early as possible
Sow in drills, two inches deep and foot
apart, putting about twenty-five seeds to
the foot, and covering before the seed is
dry. The young plants are to be carefully
weeded and cultivated during the summer
and thinned wherever they are crowded
In the fall the plants are taken up, assorted
into sizes, and heeled-in.

The Earth Burned Bare and Plough
ed by the Whirlwind.

CHICAGO, June D.
A cyclone occurred near Mason City,
Illinois, last Friday morning, An inky
hued cloud or smoke like column, was
observed gathering near the earth's sur
face, on an open prairie, six miles from
that place, and from this column soon shot
out three narrow and spire like cloud col.
umus, which continued to ascend rapidly
until they reached and seemed to attach
themselves closely to passing cloud
above, This irightful apparition moved
slowly towards Mason City, but finally
changed Its course, much to the relief Of
the people Of that place, A mile away
from its track, an odor much like that OF
burning sulphur was inhaled by several
persons. A gentleman who stood but a
hundred yards from the Cyclone when 1t
passed, says that small flashes of cleCtrci'
ty were constantly Visible in the storm
column, passing from tue earth to the
cloud above, and that rapid popping and
cracking reports were heard, reminding
him most forcibly ofan infantry regiment
in battle, firing their muskets as last as
possible The pathway of the cyclone
was nearly three miles in length and from
twenty to eighty feet in width, and in that
pathway not u spear of grass, not stalk
Of corn or wheat, not a shrub, not u par.
ticlc of vegetation was left alive. For
some distance the earth was literally
plowed to the depth OF six inches The
column Of whirling air must have been
intensely hot, rs every green thing in its
path WIS literally drted toH4hes. Another
feature ofthe cyclone was that while It's
rotary motion must have been Of inCon.
ceivable velocity, its progressive motion
was not above the rate of six miles an
hour. The outlines Of It's pathway were
so well defined that five feet from the
outer line of the total destruction OF veg
citation of every kind, not vestige of It's
effects could be seen. Fortunately no

Rev. Tying In ChicaEO--IIe breaches
In Mr.. Cheney's Church and Makes
a Sensation.

CHICAGO, June 3.
Rev. =. II. Tying, Jr., of New York,
who preached yesterday for Mr.. Cheney,
had previously received a mote from
Bishop Whitehouse, notifying him OF
Mr.. Cheney's deposition, and reminding
him of the canon lOrbidding participation
in the services with depOsed clergyman.
Mr.. Tying paid no heed to the letter, but
preached both sermons, Mr.. Cheney read
Ing the morning and evening service Tor
him, and two gentlemen uniting and ad.
minstering tho eucharist The congre.
CATION was the largest ever assembled In
Christs Church. In the evening even
the chancel md vestry were crowded, and
hundreds of people were obliged to go
away, not being able to obtain even stand
ing room. In the morning sermon no al.
lusions were made to the existing
troubles, but In the evening the sermon
bore directly upon them, being on the
text, Jesus heard that they had cast him
ont, and when he had found him he said
unto him: dost thou believe on the Son
of God" John TX, 30.
Mr.. Tying, among other things, said
that when the Church interIeres with the
rights Of individuals, conscience illu'
minated by the Word Of God, and the
liberty ofa Christian in his relation 10
his Lord, then the Church becomes anti.
Christ, Tor II assumes the functions Of
Christ substitutes itself In Christs stead
! At such u time Of npostacy from Christ
ind His TRUTH it Is blessing to be ex.
communicated, ior cast outs ol the
Church are found among the ones o
Christ. I his passage was received will
applause, which Mr.. Tying Immediately
checked, reminding bis auditors that they
were In the Church Of God, and not in d
lecture room Mr.. Tying concluded by
cXhorting his hearers to hold fast to tht
old Catholic dOctrine-in the essentials
unity, in the non.essentials liberty, and ii
all things charity.

in this quarter, especially among the
