Grant at Richmond.

In taking the chair at a Republican
meeting at Croton, DR.. P. G. Van Wyck
related the following interesting incident:
Injecting General Grant in Quebec in
the summer Of 1865, | observed to him
that the fact of his absence from our army
when it passed through the streets of Rich
mond had been generally and pleasantly
noticed by the press and otherwise, and in
this respect differed from the practice in the
time of the Caesars, when a triumph would
have been demanded by the victorious gen.
eral or that of modern conquerers in
heading their army in its triumphal march
through the fallen city.
The General modestly replied that he bad
regarded the fall of Richmond as practically
terminating the war, and it occurred to
him that he had better so at once TO WASH
ington anc to stop the forwarding Of sup
plies andfurther recruiting which he did, re-
marking that he had not thought at the time
Of the matter of parade, and should have
had but little taste for it in any event. The
economy of President Grants administra-
ton was thus foreshadowed.

Feeding ,rops

The notion prevails with many farmers
and others that the roots of plants actually
consume the manure in the soil-that it Is
taken up and digested in the system of the
plant, and thus contributed to its growth.
but it drinks. All their food is taken In a
liquid state. Water is the great solvent to
absorb and prepare the plant food.
Soil is nothing more or less than decom-
posed rock with q mixture of vegetable
matter, and the growing of crops takes
nothing from the weight or measure Of
the soil in which they are grown. This
has been proved by actual experiment,
and may be proved by others at any
time.
Farmers are apt to dispute about the
best n of applying n to the
soil, whether on the surface or plowed un-
der, two, four, six or eight inches. The
rain fall on the surface, passes into the
soil through the manure and absorbs the
fertilizing properties contained in it, and
thus the soil is i~mpregnated with its juices
in a proper condition to be taken up by
the absorbing power of the roots to
stimulate plant growth, or to mature its
seed.
