It may not be uninteresting to your
readers to give a minute description of
the house in which the articles of capit

Maj. McLaine, and I sat iu the very room.
The house is of brick, about fiity feet
long, with a porch in front extending tho
whole length. In front of the house is a
well covered with lattice work. The
yard is small, with a fine plat ot grass
shaded with locust trees. At about half
past ten o’clock, Gens. Lee and Grant met
in the parlor, which is about eighteen
feet square, comfortably furnished, the
walls decorated with paintyvis. r Lhe in

McLaue has the names of all who were
present, birt as he intends getting up a
fine picture of the whole scene, I will go

is a very accurate diagram, drawn by a
Federal officer. The table and the chairs
have been taken away as relics.

to my astonishment,before fifteen minutes

of Schaffer. Johnson, when Braine was
arrested, was very insolent in his language
towards him, and taunied him bitterly.
The reporter of the New \<>rk News
visited Capt. Braine at the police station,
and gives the following account of the
interview :
Capt. Braine, on being asked if be had
any objection to make a brief statement
of his complicity iu the affair which re
sulted in the death of Schaffer, very
readily replied that he had not, and there
upon gave, in reply to interrogatories, a
no t j brief account ot the Chesapeake capture,
the substance of which is as follows:
In December, 1863, Braine came to
Williamsburgh, but did not tarry long;
for about a week before the capture of
the Chesapeake, he sailed on board that
vessel with his wife to Portland; he had
at this time a commission as Lieutenant
in the Confederate States Navy; while
on this trip he conceived the design ot
overt and intern capturing the vessel. He next went to

that will save them thousands, and by a

giving it to their fattening hogs. No
man who lias made ihe experiment will
ever abandon ihe practice. •
A friend of ours, in Green county, a
years ago, weighed out two equal quanti
ties of live pork, kept them iu adjoining
pens and treated them in all respects the
same, except that he fed one pen on raw
food and the other on exactly the same
amount and quality of food boiled. At
killing time those fed on boiled food
weighed just 33 per cent, more than their
neighbors. This ought to be conclusive,
but the following contains additional tes
timony: <
At a meeting of the New York Far
mers’ Club, Prof. Mapes made the follow
ing remarks in regard to boiling food lor
hogs:
“ The proof of the saving of food by
boiling has been given here; we may as
well have it. Mr. Mason was a watch
maker in G ulden, N. J., and among other
fancies he liked to keep hogs. He had
his hog pen built just back of his shop,
so that he could sit at his window and
watch his hogs. Every spring he bought
some piirs and fed them through the sea^
son. Just opposite Mr Mason was the
store of Mr. Van Aradale, and every
pound of food that Mr. Mason gave his
pigs he bought at this store. At the end
of six months he got his bill from Mr.
Van Arsdale, and he always slaughtered-
hogs at the same time, so that he

bad one is confusion, weakness, discomfi

are daily lacerated to the utmost point of
endurance, by perpetual collision, irrita

equanimity and composure, home must
be to him a place of repose, of peace, of
cheerfulness, of comfort, and his soul
renews its strength and again goes
with fresh rigor to encounter the labor
and troubles of the world.* But, if at
home he finds uo rest, and is there met
with bad temper, sullenness or gloom, or

■ The War on Preachers.—Satan
and other Radicals just now seem to be
waging an extermination war upon the
preachers in Missouri. Not content with
putting them in prison, fining and indict
ing them for expounding the Word ol
God, the devils seem to have taken “ a
long pull, a strong pull and a pull .4
together,” with a view of getting rid of
that class of criminals entirely. The

Their instructions were not to shoot

The second engineer, Orin Schaffer it
appears, when called upon to surrender,
was below, oiling the machinery On
hearing the demand he responaed by
firing upon Braioe’s second lieutenant.
Three shots were then discharged at hina,
and he was instantly killed- Some o

The first engineer was wounded in tne
chin: the fi«t dfioer in the leg and arm.
Braine says that he saved the captains
he had not taken the oath ; and, for the
same reason, a few days since, the Rev.
Mr. Price, while on his way from DeKalb
to- Clinton county, was followed by a
number of outlaws, who broke into a
house where he was staying over night,
and so beaten with clubs and pistols that
ihe unoffending minister had to be con
veyed to his home, where a dispatch
says he now lies in a critical condition.
Gov. Fletcher, of course, never hears
of these things He is the most ignorant
man in Missouri, it would seem, in regard
to the true condition of affairs in many
p*ns of the State, and, while the best
men in it are being shot down like dogs,

groans, when the President turned and
said: “You will groan worse than that

always groan!”
