GEN. ROBERT ANDERSON. An extract
from private letter received in Elizabeth,
n. j., on "Wednesday, and dated "Hotei
Byron, Pres Villeneuve, Sept. 4, 1871, Lac
de Geneve." isprinted In the Elizabeth
Jouraol az follows
Coming up the lake the other day /
met General Anderson [of Fort Sim.
ter lame1 and bis family. The Gen.
eral is on his last legs, or rather he Is
not on his legs at al, since he has TO he
carried, and / az an American, am ashamed
to say that he Is so poor that he cannot
afford o servant to take care of him
BIS wife, who Is perfectly devoted
to him, is Obliged to do everythina.
She has a family of four chiIdren
and they all live on his half nav. IL
strikes me that man who stood by his Gov.
eminent as he did under peculiarly irving
circumstances, deserves more from his Gov.
eminent than he gets. The Idea that he
should be so poor as to be forced to live IN
here. when the dearest wish of his heart Is
that he might, as he expressed 1t, 'close bis
eyes in bis own land,' seems hard. He was
peculiarly tried. With q southern wife, the
daughter of one of the wealthiest men in
the South, southern affiliations, and proba.
bly, his family of southern sentiment, be
had indeed a hard task to perform when he
did his duty as he did; and then to think
that his Government and the people should
allow his last days to be those Of poverty
and absolute want well, 1t verifies the
saying, Republics are ungrateful.'

WATERING HoRsEs.-Gn watering teams,
Mr.. Joseph Harris, an agricultural writer,
advocates frequent watering of Work-hOrses
a. remover of the yigor of the animals.
We disagree with him. We think man and
beast are generally watered too much. Men
and horses at hard work in warm weather
perspire just in proportion to the quantity
Of fluids taken into the stomach Frequent
drinking in warm weather, according to our
experience, emasculates instead ofrefresheS.
Some years ago, being at Cape Island, in
driving out in one of the stand-coacheS of
the place, on very hot day, we asked the
driver how it was that his horses perspired so
little, while the horses of private carriages,
going at slower speed, were covered with
foam. He replied that he watered his
horses three times day only, though he
sponged their mouths frequently; while
the private drivers watered their horses
whenever they stopped. He said, and it
seemed TO us very sensible, that the fire.
quent watering of horses effected no good
purposes, while it made them very uncom-
Portable and letharSic. Horses, no matter
w that their work was, did not need watering
oftener than three times day. Our own
experience with horses all our life Is to the
same efect.-Germanto,on Telegraph.

THE CASE OF MAJ. HoDGE.-The Wash

THE CASE OF MAJ. HoDGE.-The Wash.
ington Republican, of Saturday, says:
"Judge Advocate Dunn returned yes.
tcrdav from Baltimore, where he had q
long interview with Major Hodge, the de-
faulting paymaster. The court-martial will
meet on Tuesday next unless some unfore-
seen circumstance should prevent the re-
qured number from being present, and
will not remain in session but one or two
days. Hodge will plead guilty to both the
charges preferred under the thflty.ninth
article of war and the act Of Congress OF
1868, under which Plauding was tried in
1866. Major Hodge desires that enough
testimony may be presented TO show the
truthfulness Of his confession.
IL is understood that the wife OF Major
Hodge shows the same desire as her hus-
band to surrender to the United States
everything of earthly value, and the pris-
oner at Fort McHenry has suggested that
an agent of the Government be sent over to
receive the deeds Of transfer Of all his prop
erty, which will amount to between fifty
and sixty thousand dollars.

Department in reply to the charges OF Pay.

BUCHANAN, Sent. 90, 1871.

Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch.l
BUCHANAN, Sept. 90, 1871.
Being q resident of your city, and having
travelled considerably through this section,
have determined to drop you line con-
cerning matters in general. The inhabit-
ants of this quiet little town were pleas
antly surprised on yesterday morning by
which has been cut off from this place
| through the effects of the memorable flood
nearly twelve months ago. A delegation
was at the landing to meet the boat, and
| its advent was hailed with great Joy.
The situation of the town Is one OF the
most beautiful have ever seen. Itnestles
between two of the Hottest peaks of the
Blue Ridge, In most lovely valley, and is
lulled By the music Of the "noble Jeems, ;"
as It sweeps from it's mountain bed and
| rushes onward to the sea. The climate Is
healthful, and the society Is as fine as any
In the State.
The corn crop, from all that / can gather,
will be short, particularly on the uplands.
Not more than one.half of the tobacco
raisers have planted this year from various
reasons, but those who have are favored
| with good crops.
The Valley railroad seems to be the all.
absorbing topic through this section, and
learn that its survey has already been
commenced.
During my trip I visited the Peaks of
Otter, and from its summit beheld sight
| so grand and picturesque that renders it in
describable. Many names are carved upon
| the huge rocks which crown the summit,
and upon the frame Of an old building i'm
| mediate!y on the top found the business
cards of Messrs. Jones Brothers, commission
merchants and grocers, Richmond, and OF
Il. G.. Lorraine, Buchanan. That Is what
l should term high adUe1tising.
find the people are pleased to hear Of
the growth and prosperity OF Richmond,
and the merchants are I'll anxious to pa
troniZe her. An effort on the part of tue
Richmond merchants would draw this on
tire trade, the majority Of Which now goes
to Baltimore, because the Baltimore mer-
chants send out their young men and soli-
cit it.
| With many excuses for this hurried and
abrupt epistlo, am truly yours. G.

JACKSON, MISS, Sept. 25.-The Supreme
Court to-day rendered a decision in the
State printing case. The court holds that,
under the statutes, vacancy to be filed
by the Governor must occur during recess
of the Legislature. The vacancy in this
case occurred during the sitting OF che Lee
gislature, and was filled by the Governor in
appointing Kimball, Raymond q Co; hence
came officers de facto, because no objec.
ton was raised TO their performing the
work. The Office Is now vacant, and in
sucf case the Secretary Of the State has
authority to let the State work out on con-
tract on the most advantageous terms
offered.
