ho wa* the hamlyent man about taken holt
of anything thoUiom« along you most evol
ve, 1 Judge; he wan a cheerful. Ktevrlfi
ereatur, always doing something, and no
man oan «ay ho evor nee him do anything
by halves.
Preaohjri wan his nateral gait, but he
wero't a man to lay hack and twidle hin
thumbs because there didn't happen to be
uothin doin in his own enpenhial line—no
eir, he wax a man who woijld meander
forth and stir up something for himself.
His last acts wan to go his pile on "kings
and," (oalklating to fill, but which he didn I
fill,) when there was a "flush" out again
him, and iiatorally, you nee, he went un
der. And bo , he was cleaned out, an you
may say, and he struck the home trail,
cheerful, but flat broke. I knowed thin
talented man in Arkansas, and if you
would print this humble tribute to his
foi gl» abilities, you would groatly obleege
hi» ouhappy friend.

Waif Our usually well iuforuiod
Washington correspondent sends tw
as an on da of the Föderal capital, au
intimation that the lion. Hob VVick
lifie is to be appointed 1'rovisonal
Governor of this .State. Mr. Wiekliffe
was apopular Governor in tho good old
times, ami we believe kept himself en
tirely aloof from all Confederate com
plications. It has been claimed by
some of our citizens that Gov. Wells
has already been honored with the
Provisional mantle of Gubernatorial
power, but as yet we have seem no
official announcement of that fact.—

pected thereon the 10th of August.
Mr. Slidell and family continue in

R ost is a' A gen. ft is sai d there never
were as many AmericaßR in Paris
as now. Messrs. Van den Broeb,
Brothers <fc Go., (where all the South
ern men are to be found) have never
seen them pouring in so numerously.
Governor Brownlow says he
would not leave Knst Tennessee to go
anywhero but to tho kingdom of
Heaven. That's a journey the parsou
tlever will take.— Boston Post.
A. Wiss F armcr .— Au English
farmer recently remarked that "he fed
his land before it was hungry, rested
it before it was foul " Seldom if ever
was «0 much tçrîcultual wisdom con
densed into a single lentence.
I'oUTiCB a no REbioroN.—The med
dling of political parsons in affairs of
State is productive of no less evil con
sequences in England than in this
country. In a c.lutrge to the clergy
of his Diocese, by tho Bord Bishop of
(iloiicest.er and Bristol, he says : "ft
needs but lit.ll« inquiry to discover that
whilst Dissent is increasing in power
as a political engine, it it losing its
influence as a religions body. The
acknowledgement, is heard on many
side» that the life aud spirituality and
soundness of faith of Dissenting con
gregations are on the wane. Politics
and jvirty spirit have been as canker
worms to vital godliness."

in no way opposa the policy of the
State or General Government to that
