How 10 Keep Sweet Potatoes.

On the 27sh day of July, being on
a visit to tho mountain districts of
this State, we stopped for dinner at
the house of friend and found q
large disa of sweet potatoes, rich,
JUICY and well-havored, OH the table.
1t being an unusual time of year for
this sueoulent vegetable, we inquired
whether they wore old or now, and
could scarcely believe our host that
they wero one year old until he told
US Of his methed Of keeping them.
Ho has Il dry cellar, and in the STUN.
mer months prepares large quantity
Of sand, by having il thoroughly dried
and put away for use. He digs his
potatoes after the first frost, however
slight 1t may be, and takes them i'm
mcdiately to his cellar after sopera-
ting the out and broken onos from the
others. A layer of sand few inohes
in thickness is put in tho bottom of the
cellar, then layer Of potatoes o foot
in thickness. Sand is thrown on. this
layer, till all the interstices arc filed
up and it rests FIVE inches thick on tho
upper surface Then come alternate
layers of potatoes and sand in regular
order until the cellar is filed. A
vacant place should be left on the
side Of the cellar 80 that the po-
tatoes may bo taken out without
bursting them. Care should be taken
never to tramp on them, as the least
bruise may induce some one to rot,
which by heating will communicate
the rot to the whole layer. Freezes
should be guarded, against by throw
ing something over tho top of tho Gel.
lar in very cold weather. .-Nashville

No tongue can toll the horrors of q

little, delicate boy, whom his parents
was drilling to sleep alone, used to
cry violently every night and his faith

to conquer the cbild's will. Oue
night he said;

The fathers eyes wero opened from
that moment. He saw that human
being cannot be governed by dead
rules, like plant or an animal.

Gen. MOrgan's Capture,

The betrayal Of Gen. John Morgan,
the Confederate cavalry officer of
Kentucky, which resulted in his
death at & ccnville, Tenn, on the
morning Of SEPT. 8, 1861, has been
generally ascribed to Mrs. Williams,
a daughtcr-in.law of the ltdy in
whose house, in GrcenviIle, Morgan
aud some members of his staff we're
stopping at the time. A letter has
recently been published, however,
written by Gen Giliem, whose COM
mand, surprised Morgan, to GENTLE
man Of Vlcksburg, in which Gillem
gives the true version of the events
connected with tho information, upon
which he acted when lie sent his brig.
adc to surprise Morgan and his staff.
The information was given to boy,
who had been captured by the Confede .
crates, and who subsequently escaped
and conveyed the news of Morga1's
pre- |cncc at GrccnviIle to the Federal
commander.
