So niucb. money was made daring the war by importing and gathering np from all parts of the civilized world old wool rags, to be picked into a loose fibre, mixed with a little wool, spun and wove into cloth, called "shoddy," that speculating men still continue the practice. England, with less land than there is in some of our largest States, finds it profitable to keep some thirty million sheep, whioh clip 150,000,000 pounds of wool a year, and supplies in raga and cloth a liberal amount of shoddy for the shoddy aristocracy of the "United States. Land ia worth in Great Britain from 300 to 500 an acre to produce wool, because cast-of- f woolen garments work- ed up into shoddy find puchasers who are so little civilized that they greatly prefer dogs to sheep. "When shall we cease making our new cloth, and most popular goods, out of the rags of other nations ? Net till we learn to raise the first beet wool, and manufacture it in our own States. Now, the South is the largest known consumer of cheap, shoddy negro clothing. This is death to wool-growin- g and home manufac- tures. The time has come when the patrons of husbandry should unite their means and labor to produce both wool aad cotton, and strong serviceable jeans for Lome consumption. To prosper, the1 must organize and economize their in dastry. In a word, they should think a little more of sound, new wool, and a little less of worn out tissues in rags, and rotten shoddy. Land-holder- s, it is your own fault it you make farms vorth only five dollars an acreifor rais- ing dogs which would be worth fifty dollars an acre for raising sheep and wool. Dog-husband- don't pay, whether the community is naked for clothing, or hungry for meat. As the best mutton comes from cheap herbage, and dog flesh from far more expensive food, it coats more to keep a fifty-poun- d dog than sheep that will weigh 500 pounds. "With our cold winter pinching many a family, and the air full of snow, we indite a paragraph suggestive of more comfort, and better economy in the matter of domestic animals.

To reset our farms in this renovating and nutritious plant, it will be unwise to delay sowing seed till late in the spring. The writer's experience in raising clover seedas a "staple crop commenced over fifty years ago. More seed is sown onjthe snow at the North than in any other way, the snow lying on winter wheat. Sometimes aftei the seed has germinated,)a heaving frost,the aan and drying winds kill the tender plants, but not often to any serious ex- tent. It is important to command the full benefit of all the spring rains to soften the ground, and aid clover roots to penetrate down to moist earth be- fore dry. hot weather, sets in. For the same rrason one had better sow oats, and plant corn as early as the ground can be got in good order. All Euro- pean grass seeds should have the bene- fit of an early start if sown at .all. IRISH POTATOJ3S-EAR- LT PLANT- ING. A correspondent of the Country Gen-'tJema- n makes the following succinct statement of his experience and man- ner of raising a good crop of Irish po- tatoes: Last winter we cleared the sheep sheds and yards of all the manure we could, and spread it evenly on an old meadow which had become so run out by quack roots as to give but a poor return in hay. "We plowed the field earlv, as the sod enabled us to work on it when stubble lands were wet. I think we plowed too early, on account of the quack roots, as they gave us much trouble oftrwrfl. "We cultivated, rolled and j troll snrl as deeo as wc uisu T could and not disturb the sod; we jnarked it both nays, tnree teec apart, furrows with a small plow, nyubMti'Q - Eoiag twice ma row one way to cor- rect mistakes. The seed potatoes were and cnt to one eve, puiuug two :c, of oaeli rrrwB mark in the fur- - rows. We covered them with nplow, by turning back the furrows made in .opening. They came up nicely in a few days, as the weather was suitable, but the quack also come. As soon as we could, we cot the cultivator and hoes into the field, but it was a sorry job; the ouack roots erew faster than the potatoes. The weather being drv "and fine. we finally finished tiie field, but it looked sickly enough. By going several times both ways in a row we destroyed the grass between hilkj, but around the hills we had to cover it up and smother it; which we found better than cutting up, as it did not sprout again so soon. When the roots of the potatoes had reached the manured sod, such rapid growth I never witnessed before. The vines continued to grow until they completely covered the ground, smoth-erin- sr the" quack for the time being. Thev ripened finelv and early, and were a splendid crop; scarcely any small ones; all of good size and many uncommonly laree, 27 making a bush eL The variety was the Peerless, and they are sound and fine as one can wish. We sometimes see the quack grass in Tennessee. It is the tr Mourn repens of botanists, and about as troublesome as Bermuda in a garden or cotton field. "We need more "sheepshed and yards" in the South full of healthy sheep to fatten our soil by their droppings, so that twenty-seve- n potatoes will make a bushel. On a farm where there is nob to-da- y one pole of ploughed ground we shall strike at once for a meadow and a pasture. "We may not succeed, but we can try. "We have seen a farm of 1,000 acres improved land that had no plow ever on it, yet filled several large barnB with hay every year. TENNESSEE LEGISLATURE. SENATE. TiroitSDAY, Feb. 4.

Tbe discovery of fourteen pounds of mu tilated bank notes, has created astir among the Government police officials and others. I he demand for the fragments has far ex- ceeded the snpply, and fortunate individ- uals possessing a piece frequently found themselves the centre of a curious throng, who indulged in speculation as to the ex- planation of the destruction of $100,000 in currency. The samples of tbe stuff in the possess- ion of tbe National Bank Note Company bear strong evidence that no one 1ms been defrauded by the mutilation. They are of tbe denominations of one, two, five and ten dollars. The fragments, with ffew ex- ceptions, consist of the lower edges of the notes. They are cut off with a reg- ularity that clearly indicates that they were assorted into piles and cut in bulk. The notes were all much worn, showing that they bad been long in circulation. A large majority of the pieces ot notes are of the Sp aker National Bank of Canajoharie, New York. Tbe bank officers have an- swered inquiries that they are not aware of having lost any money. The only authorized mutilator of cur- rency is the United States Treasury, which cancels retired currency in tbe way that these fragments are mutilated preparatory to tlieir further reduction to pulp, nence it is inferred that some thief found oppor- tunity to fill his pockets with the fragments, hoping that he might be able to reconstruct some entire bills and place tbem .again in circulation. JOHXSOX COULD BEAT GBAXT. Washington Correspondence of tho New York Herald. The revenue question is a more diff- icult one than at first sight appeals, for the number of new sources of revenue which can be utilized without reviving the old system of assessors and greatly increasing the number of officeholders and the cost of collection ia small. A Republican member said to-da- "There i3 one way to in crease the revenue and that is by reviving the prosperity of the coun- try. But that cannot be done without restoring confidence, iand confidence cannot be restored while the Southern States are lying prostrate under Fed- eral interference and the Northern-peopl- e arc alarmed by violent uncon- stitutional acts of the Executive. We cannot make and keep one part of this country unprosperous and in a turmoil without affecting all parts, and we can- not expect arenewal of prosperity until we have peace." Another eminent Re- publican, who agreed with this, added that "hateful! as Andrew Johnson made himself while he was President, there is no doubt that to-da- if ho and General Grant were competitors for the Presidency, three-quarter- s of the Northern people would vote for John- son." TOO MANT WOMEN LOBBYISTS AT WASHINGTON. Washington Capital. It is now generally accepted and un- derstood that no decent woman can frequent these lobbies and call out members of Congress without taint. The lobby in the rear of the Speaker's chair should be devoted to the use of members, instead of being now, with the Speaker's room, overrun wi h lob- byists, male and female. From the room originally devoted to the use of the Speaker, that functionary has been driven to one more remote, and now the apartment originally intended for the presiding officer may be found at all houra during the session crowded with painted women and corrupt men, pressing their various schemes on Con- gressmen. A Prevalent Disease. There Is no dlaeoso to prevalent in Americans dyspepsia, and certainly none which has to generally baffled and defeated the skill of tbe medical profession. The only remedy for this distressing complaint is a pure medicated stimu- lant. Hostetetter's Stomach Bitters, whose es- sential principle is sound rye, is admitted by medical practitioners to be the orly alterative, correcUre and restorative on which they can rely. T. o Bitters are the best possible specific for flatulency, dizziness, waterbrash, irregular- ity of the bowels, and all indications of confirm- ed dyspepsia. They do not excite, but soothe the irritattd stomach and bowels, and may be taken by persons of the most dellctte and sensi- tive organizations, who are unpleasantly aflect-e- d by the use of the ordinary stimulants of commerce. Though their effect i most decis- ive, yet they are so mild and beneficent in ope- ration, as to be suitable to children as 11 as to. adidu. feW deoulw&wlt SAVINGS BANKS.

MORE WOOL. AXD LESS SHODDT.So niucb. money was made daring

the war by importing and gatheringnp from all parts of the civilized worldold wool rags, to be picked into a loosefibre, mixed with a little wool, spunand wove into cloth, called "shoddy,"that speculating men still continue thepractice. England, with less land thanthere is in some of our largest States,finds it profitable to keep some thirtymillion sheep, whioh clip 150,000,000

pounds of wool a year, and supplies inraga and cloth a liberal amount ofshoddy for the shoddy aristocracy ofthe "United States.

Land ia worth in Great Britain from300 to 500 an acre to produce wool,

because cast-of- f woolen garments work-

ed up into shoddy find puchasers whoare so little civilized that they greatlyprefer dogs to sheep. "When shall we

cease making our new cloth, and mostpopular goods, out of the rags of othernations ? Net till we learn to raisethe first beet wool, and manufacture itin our own States. Now, the South isthe largest known consumer of cheap,shoddy negro clothing. This is deathto wool-growin- g and home manufac-tures.

The time has come when the patronsof husbandry should unite their meansand labor to produce both wool aadcotton, and strong serviceable jeans forLome consumption. To prosper, the1must organize and economize their indastry. In a word, they should thinka little more of sound, new wool, and alittle less of worn out tissues in rags,and rotten shoddy. Land-holder- s, itis your own fault it you make farmsvorth only five dollars an acreifor rais-

ing dogs which would be worth fiftydollars an acre for raising sheep andwool.

Dog-husband- don't pay, whetherthe community is naked for clothing, orhungry for meat. As the best muttoncomes from cheap herbage, and dogflesh from far more expensive food, itcoats more to keep a fifty-poun- d dogthan sheep that will weigh 500 pounds."With our cold winter pinching many afamily, and the air full of snow, we

indite a paragraph suggestive of morecomfort, and better economy in thematter of domestic animals. FlocksLave beea man's beet friends for un-

SOWING CLOVER SEED.The drouth, army worms and other

pests wore very severe on our clover in3Iiddle Tennessee last summer andautumn. To reset our farms in thisrenovating and nutritious plant, it will

be unwise to delay sowing seed till latein the spring. The writer's experience

in raising clover seedas a "staple cropcommenced over fifty years ago. Moreseed is sown onjthe snow at the Norththan in any other way, the snow lyingon winter wheat. Sometimes aftei theseed has germinated,)a heaving frost,theaan and drying winds kill the tenderplants, but not often to any serious ex-

tent. It is important to command thefull benefit of all the spring rains tosoften the ground, and aid clover rootsto penetrate down to moist earth be-

fore dry. hot weather, sets in. For thesame rrason one had better sow oats,

and plant corn as early as the groundcan be got in good order. All Euro-

pean grass seeds should have the bene-

fit of an early start if sown at .all.

IRISH POTATOJ3S-EAR- LT PLANT-ING.

A correspondent of the Country Gen-'tJema- n

makes the following succinctstatement of his experience and man-

ner of raising a good crop of Irish po-

tatoes:Last winter we cleared the sheep

sheds and yards of all the manure wecould, and spread it evenly on an oldmeadow which had become so run outby quack roots as to give but a poorreturn in hay. "We plowed the fieldearlv, as the sod enabled usto work on it when stubble landswere wet. I think we plowedtoo early, on account of the quackroots, as they gave us much troubleoftrwrfl. "We cultivated, rolled andj troll snrl as deeo as wcuisu T

could and not disturb the sod; we

jnarked it both nays, tnree teec apart,furrows with a small plow,

nyubMti'Q -Eoiag twice m a row one way to cor-

rect mistakes. The seed potatoes wereand cnt to one eve, puiuug two:c, of oaeli rrrwB mark in the fur- -

rows. We covered them with nplow,by turning back the furrows made in.opening. They came up nicely in a

few days, as the weather was suitable,but the quack also come. As soon aswe could, we cot the cultivator andhoes into the field, but it was a sorry job;the ouack roots erew faster thanthe potatoes. The weather beingdrv "and fine. we finallyfinished tiie field, but it lookedsickly enough. By going several timesboth ways in a row we destroyed thegrass between hilkj, but around thehills we had to cover it up and smotherit; which we found better than cuttingup, as it did not sprout again so soon.When the roots of the potatoes hadreached the manured sod, such rapidgrowth I never witnessed before. Thevines continued to grow until theycompletely covered the ground, smoth-erin- sr

the" quack for the time being.Thev ripened finelv and early, andwere a splendid crop; scarcely anysmall ones; all of good size and manyuncommonly laree, 27 making a busheL The variety was the Peerless, andthey are sound and fine as one canwish.

We sometimes see the quack grassin Tennessee. It is the trMourn repensof botanists, and about as troublesomeas Bermuda in a garden or cotton field."We need more "sheepshed and yards"in the South full of healthy sheep tofatten our soil by their droppings, sothat twenty-seve- n potatoes will make abushel. On a farm where there is nobto-da- y one pole of ploughed ground weshall strike at once for a meadow and apasture. "We may not succeed, but wecan try. "We have seen a farm of 1,000

acres improved land that had no plowever on it, yet filled several large barnBwith hay every year.

MUTILATED BANK NOTES.

Fourteen founds of National Carrea- -cj Sold for Wnslo Paper.

New York Sun, Feb. 2.

Tbe discovery of fourteen pounds of mutilated bank notes, has created astir amongthe Government police officials and others.I he demand for the fragments has far ex-ceeded the snpply, and fortunate individ-uals possessing a piece frequently foundthemselves the centre of a curious throng,who indulged in speculation as to the ex-

planation of the destruction of $100,000 incurrency.

The samples of tbe stuff in the possess-ion of tbe National Bank Note Companybear strong evidence that no one 1ms beendefrauded by the mutilation. They are oftbe denominations of one, two, five and tendollars. The fragments, with ffew ex-

ceptions, consist of the lower edgesof the notes. They are cut off with a reg-ularity that clearly indicates that theywere assorted into piles and cut in bulk.The notes were all much worn, showingthat they bad been long in circulation. Alarge majority of the pieces ot notes are ofthe Sp aker National Bank of Canajoharie,New York. Tbe bank officers have an-swered inquiries that they are not aware ofhaving lost any money.

The only authorized mutilator of cur-rency is the United States Treasury, whichcancels retired currency in tbe way thatthese fragments are mutilated preparatoryto tlieir further reduction to pulp, nenceit is inferred that some thief found oppor-tunity to fill his pockets with the fragments,hoping that he might be able to reconstructsome entire bills and place tbem .again incirculation.

JOHXSOX COULD BEAT GBAXT.Washington Correspondence of tho New York

Herald.The revenue question is a more diff-

icult one than at first sight appeals, forthe number of new sources of revenuewhich can be utilized without revivingthe old system of assessors and greatlyincreasing the number of officeholdersand the cost of collection ia small.A Republican member said to-da-

"There i3 one way to increase the revenue and that is byreviving the prosperity of the coun-try. But that cannot be done withoutrestoring confidence, iand confidencecannot be restored while the SouthernStates are lying prostrate under Fed-eral interference and the Northern-peopl- e

arc alarmed by violent uncon-stitutional acts of the Executive. Wecannot make and keep one part of thiscountry unprosperous and in a turmoilwithout affecting all parts, and we can-not expect arenewal of prosperity untilwe have peace." Another eminent Re-publican, who agreed with this, addedthat "hateful! as Andrew Johnsonmade himself while he was President,there is no doubt that to-da- if ho andGeneral Grant were competitors for thePresidency, three-quarter- s of theNorthern people would vote for John-son."

TOO MANT WOMEN LOBBYISTS ATWASHINGTON.

Washington Capital.

It is now generally accepted and un-derstood that no decent woman canfrequent these lobbies and call outmembers of Congress without taint.The lobby in the rear of the Speaker'schair should be devoted to the use ofmembers, instead of being now, withthe Speaker's room, overrun wi h lob-byists, male and female. From theroom originally devoted to the use ofthe Speaker, that functionary has beendriven to one more remote, and nowthe apartment originally intended forthe presiding officer may be found atall houra during the session crowdedwith painted women and corrupt men,pressing their various schemes on Con-gressmen.

A Prevalent Disease.There Is no dlaeoso to prevalent in Americans

dyspepsia, and certainly none which hasto generally baffled and defeated the skill of tbemedical profession. The only remedy for thisdistressing complaint is a pure medicated stimu-lant. Hostetetter's Stomach Bitters, whose es-

sential principle is sound rye, is admitted bymedical practitioners to be the orly alterative,correcUre and restorative on which they canrely. T. o Bitters are the best possible specificfor flatulency, dizziness, waterbrash, irregular-ity of the bowels, and all indications of confirm-ed dyspepsia. They do not excite, but soothethe irritattd stomach and bowels, and may betaken by persons of the most dellctte and sensi-tive organizations, who are unpleasantly aflect-e- d

by the use of the ordinary stimulants ofcommerce. Though their effect i most decis-ive, yet they are so mild and beneficent in ope-ration, as to be suitable to children as 11 as to.adidu. feW deoulw&wlt
