A Captain General.

The New York Herazd publishes the following among it's Washington dis patches. A bill has been drawn and will be introduced at the very first op- portunity after Congress assemblies restoring General U. s. Grant to the position he resigned when he became President in 1869. Whether the title will be Captain General or some other distinctive military title is to be deter mined before the meeting of Congress. The Southern members who have been thus far consulted are, without excep- tion, in favor Of the measure. As fast as they arrive in Washington they are visi- ted and their approval of the bill solici- ted. Not one has yet refused to agree to suspension of the rules that the bill may be put upon its passage on the day it is introduced. Besides the support of the Southern democratic members of the House it also must have the sanction of the Speaker, who, in this case, it is said, will depart from the rule made by himself of requiring members to give notice of their intention to ask for sus pension of the rules.

Artists pronounce the statue of Gen. Thomas the finest specimen of the sculptor's handiwork in Washington. To the chance observer 1t tells more thrilling story. High above the crowd, almost flush with the house-tops, one sees in the attitude and expression that the old hero has just ridden to summit where he overlooks the battle going on below. In the face and position of the rider are written self-possession and con- fdence, while from the open mouth of the horse one almost hears the neigh of mixed terror and defiance.
 The statue stands on a pedestal of granite, in horizontal section of ellipti- cal shape, about sixteen feet in height, on which there are bronze tablets repro senting the badge of the Society of the Army of the Cumberland, partly sur rounded by wreath of laurel. General Thomas is represented as having sud- denly checked his horse on the summit of slight acclivity to make an observa- tion, and he sits with loosened rein and hat off surveying the field with search ing eye. The horse looks abroad with head raised high in the air, swelling neck and chest, and fore feet firmly planted on strip of rock. His mane and uplifted tail are tossed by thewind, and one of his hind feet on the slope is placed before the other. Rider and steed are erect and eager at the first view and full of the glow caused by the quick ride up. The horse is especially good anatomically, and has careful veining. {.
 The face of General Thomas is expres. sive, and the head we'll modelled the
 intent expression, as he looks with firm
 ly compressed NV and with that intense
 interest which imparts earnestness tc
 the entire figure, IS well rendered.
 The whole work Is about fifteen feet
 in height from the ground on which the
 animal stands to the top of the riders
 head, nearly on level with which his own rises. The figures are about twice life-sizs. The color of the bronzs ii , clear, light brown, almost the ratura color of the alloy.
 !, The contract for the statue was madt with Mr. J. Q. A. Ward nearly six year since-by committee of the Army of thu Cumberland, tho price to be paid being
 $4O,O00. About six months ago he com pleted design in plaster and sent it t. : the foundry of Messrs. Bureau Broth CTS & Heaton, of Philadelphia, who re = | caiua1 $1O OO0 for t!,a;1 1o},or
 The entire weight of the statue f about 7,500 pounds. the horse and ride i weighing $500 and the base 2,200. Tn site selected for the statue is the spo s where the salute of 800 guns was fire t on April Sd, 1865, in honor Of the fall ( Petersburg and the capture Of Ricl r mond, and one week later another salu' t of 500 guns in honor of the surrender ( t General Lees army.

FERTILIZER FOR POTATOES

The best fertilizer for potatoes I have ever tried is sod, composted in autumn with barnyard manure and from the pig pen, or with fish or animal manures of any ki1d, or guauo. But these latter must not be added to the sod in too large quantity, for if so they will in iure the quality of the potato, or indeed,
 any other root for the table. To this compost it will be a good thing to add 8 liberal dose of fresh slaked lime but what would be better is ashes, potash, German kanit, CT Jersey green sand mari. As to the quantities of ali the above to be added to each load of sod, this depends mainly on their strength i;

abuses and dereIictinns on the part Of these

these Is the obligation incurred
by the railroad companies OF keeping In re-

an opportunity to promise the public great
