He is, moreover, entirely content
with his pr?nt military position, and
wholly disinclined to the undertaking
of executive service like that of the
War office. He aho says that he has
found no difficulty in serving under
General Grant, and has no desire to
be put into other relations with him.
Every body knows that the most cor
dial sympathy existed between these
two officers during the latter part of
the war, and it is perhaps scarcely
necessary to say that there has been
no change in this respect since the re

(From the Prairie Farmer.
American Bee Plant.
This plant has been cultivated to
some extent in this neighborhood for
several years past, and proves to be
one of the be6t, and probably the very
best honey-producing plant known.
It was introduced by the writer about
the year 1860. as a new annual flower
ing plant, from the Rocky Mountain
o ' . .. . , i.
rcoion, but its great vaiue was not
known, and was not discovered mi a
year or two after, when the writer was
surprised to see tne nowers coveieu
.r, . I ! -At it. - !
with Dees, wnue otners in uie imme
diate neighborhood were quite ncg
lected. The next year a much larger
quantity of the plant was grown, ana
it was found that the honey stored in
boxes at the time the plant was in
bloom, was of a much finer quality
than any other. Every succeeding
year of its cultivation confirms tnis,
ana i una tuni wnue mis piaiiu nao m
bloom, nearly all other flowers were
discarded : even the buckwheat, wnicn
every one knows is a great favorite
with the industrious little fellows, is
quite deserted. The honey stored
from this plant is positively the finest,
both to the eye and palate, of any I
ever saw.
. The plant is of easy culture, and
looks well in the flower garden. It is
a strong grower, and much branccd,
like the common mustard plant, tho'
its flowers are bright and purple, and
are produced from mid-summer till
frost destroys it in autumn.
It will grow on any soil, tho' a rich
one suits it best, and may be sown in
dulls or broadcast if the ground is - - ap (I bitual neglect, so men degenerate, iu-

Blount sent some mer into the Rebel
army mainly at the instigation of the
White Man's Church, called Southern
Methodist. But this same county
sent some soldiers to the field to crush
this hydra-headed monster, and the
Southern Confedaracy ; and now the
one has been driven to the wall, and
of right all the component parts of
this terrible crime should go down to
gether. Ought they or no? The
answer comes swelling up from the
soul of every honest patriot, Yes, down
with them ! down with them ! and for
ever let this Government be what its
founders designed, in the lauguageof
Washington "free fl'om sectional or
ganizations." Now, a new Conference
year has began. The handmaid of
treason, called the Southern M. E.
Church, is promising their friends to
re-occupy the ground that the Nation
al rt1diers drove their backers, from.
They even claim the Churches erected
for God'i worship to , their use, that
they, under the guise of religion, may
rebuild the castle called Thq South-'

ousl Abraham Lincoln, the martyr
hero, and Ulysses S- Grant, 'the great
est living general,' both came from tho.
plain ranks of the people. Under tho
inspiration of our institutions the
bright-eyed boy of the cottage, is more
likclv to make the Newton, Franklin,
or Washington of his age than tho
child of opulence, writing . his name
higher on the pyramid of the world's
progress. Six years ago,' President
Lincoln, on tho 4th day of July, in
his message to Congress in extraordi
nary session, uttered the following
sublime truths. "In referring to the
character of the men who had volun
teered, and wero" ready to die for the.
Union, h said :; ; "There are' many
single regiments whose members, one.
and another, possess full practical
knowledge of all the arts, sciences,
professions, and whatever" else, wheth
er useful or elegant, that is known in
the whole world ; and there is scarcely
one from which there could not be se
lected a President, Cabiuct, or Con
gress, and perhaps a court, abundantly
competent to administer the Govern
ment itself." To bo born in such a
land and under institutions that thus
elevate its people, is a far richer inher
itance than the living of the wealthiest
lord in England. .
: A rival of a certain lawyer sought to
humilate him publicly by saying:
" You blacked my father's boots once."
Yes," replied the lawyer unabashed,
