General Mckenzie.

General Ronald S. Mckenzie, who
has been brought into great promi-
hence, within a brief time, by his
raid into Mexican territory and pun
ishment of the Kickapoo Indians, is
a son of Commodore Mckenzie, who
in 1843, hung to the yard-arms of
his ship, for mutiny, Midshipman
Spencer, a son of the then Secretary
of War under President Tyler
John C. Spencer. The name Of
Commodore Mckenzie was original
" Alexander Slidel, he having
changed it at the request of rela-
tive, in order to inherit some proper
tv. He was native of New York,
and a brother of John Slidell, Of
Louisiana, of Mason and Slidell
fame, captured on the high sea by
Commodore Wilkes, while proceed
ing to France as Minister of the
Southern Confederacy. Gen. Nc
Kenzie graduated from West Point
at the head of lis class in 1862, and
took up arms in the Union cause, as
Second Lieutenant of Engineers
Step by step he won his way to
higher position, until, near the close
Of the struggle, he was made full
Brigadier-G eneral, with the brevet
rank of Major-General. He now
holds rank in the regular army as
Colonel, and commands the Fourth
Cavalry. He has been stationed in
Texas for several years, and during
that time has done good service
against the red skins.

Now that Capt. Jack and all Of
his followers have surrendered, and
the Modoc war is at an end. the
great question agitating the minds
of the authorities at Washington is,
what shall be done with them? p
The warriors having formerly sur
rendered, it is not to be supposed
that anything in the shape of mill
tary punishment will be melted out
against them. 1t is limited, however,
that the prisoners will be turned
over to the Oregon civil authorities
to undergo trial in the State courts.
If Captain Jack, Shack Nasty Jim
and Scar-faced Charley do not yet
turn up in Barnum's hands we will
be much mistaken.

How we can Make Money.

The Knoxville Chronicle has an ed
itorial article under the above cap
ton, which meets our views exactly.
and we commend it the thoughtful
consideration of our readers:
ut seems to be generally conceded
that the fruit crop of East Tennes-
see will be small this year. Tt gen.
orally brings about as much money
into our country as our corn crop.
In view of this probable loss it is
well enough that our farmers should
be looking about to see if there is
any way i'll which they can make
good this deficiency. Our blackber-
ries are a never failing crop. They
are plentiful on every hillside, in
every field and valley. Usually most
of them are left to dry on the vine
and are practically lost. Yet with a
little effort they might be made a
source of great revenue to our sec
ton. Dried blaekberries are worth
from eleven to fifteen cents per
pound with a never falling demand
A child can gather and dry them
without trouble. They can be cured
with one-fourth the labor required
for peaches and apples and are more
profitable. Why not save all of this
year and make up the loss we are to
sustain from the shortness of the
other crops The thrifty farmer is
always looking about for new sources
of income. If one crop is short
he makes it up in the smaller farm
economies. His resources need hard
" know limit in this genial cline
Let us get out of the old rut of
raising hog and hominy and let our
farmers turn to advantage every gift
of nature"

Farmers Oranges are among the
institutions Of Tennessee. Fifteen
or twenty have been organized within
the last few weeks. mostly in West
Tennessee. A convention will be held
in Nashville some time in July, when
a State organization will be effected.
The Grange movement is the great
sensation Of the West, and existing
political parties are becoming obse-
quious to an organization that is be-
ginning to be rec gnized as holding
the balance of power.
