A few days since, while a worthy Methodist ■
minister of'Athens, Tennessee, was workin > ,
in his garden, a strange proceeding took -
place in his house, where his good wife and
two children were. A negro woman brought
in a basket, and depositing it on a bed walked
out The wife called her husband in, and
told him of the circumstance. The two ex
amined the basket, and lo ! it contained a
nicely dressed baby, and a $20 bill, and
a pretty note, in a feminine -hand, desiring
the lady to take charge of the little innocent
and her remuneration would be ample. The
good man stormed. The good wile tried to

said in explanation of the part she played,
that the child and basket had been placed iu

five hnndred millions of dollars for the eman
cipated slaves of our Southern brethren.
Some light on Iho subject may be obtained
when our Democratic Genera! Assembly
meets.
And final'y:
A little resolution adopted by the Demo
cratic General Assembly of Ohio this winter,
demanding that enough greenbacks be
printed to pay over to our Southern brethren
who lost staves dnriDg the unhappy war five
hnndred millions of dollars, would go a great
way. As a measure of conciliation it might
be "well for onr revitalized Democracy to try
it. Definition of doctrine is demanded, and
we hope the High Priests of the New Dispensa
tion will not be backward in declaring their
great principle.
The Virginia papers are afraid that Mr.
Hunter's advocacy of this idea will hurt the ,
cause of Kemper, and yet wo think not. It I “ made in th ? " ra f al ;l sma11 lua, P of

world on his own hook. He decided to go to
New York. Mr. Sterritt gave Horace a note
for the balance dno him and some money.
He advised him to dress himself up in better
clothes than be bad on in order to make a
better impression among strange:k. Horace
said that what he had saved would bo given
to his father, who needed it to pay towards
his land, and he thought when his father be
come more forehanded, he in tarn would be
able to assist him. Horace embarked on a
canal boat for New York, and his subsequent
trials and triumphs furnish a bright page in
American newspaper history. As Franklin in
his teachings was the economist of groats and
half-pence, so Greeley was tho economist of
time. By following the teachings of these two
