THE WEEKLY OPINION.
Fucit CnoV^x Ka»r Xn-VNiasei!.—The
Knoxville Whig, ortho22d, says:
Wc receive from our country friends the
gratifying intelligence that, after all the
frosts, there Is plenty of fruit vet. The
fruit crop of Kast Tennessee Is becoming

rlon. Lauderdale county, Mississippi. Aliy

A 1*kn Portrait.—A Washington cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Commercial
has the following pen and ink portrait of
Judge Curtis, now acting as one of the
counsel for President Johnson:
Mr. Curtis is a man without a smile or a
trifle. Sombre is his vesture, purple is his
color. He is very much like Daniel Web
ster in stature, face and manner. He
Is eldotn in anybody's company—but with
a slow and deliberate stride, leaning on a
cane, he eouies alone to the Capitol,
ponderously raounti the steps, wijies Ids
forehead In the ante-room, ami, entering
the Senate, sits in a condition of vigilant
retirement. He exchanges no words with
ids legal brethren, li he is introduced to
anybody, he shakes bauds with that gravi
ty that Webster used to revel in. lie weighs
about one hundred and ninety pounds, per
haps more. Nature gave him a good, large
Websterlaii head, and his face is a line old
liver color.
DeATU OK A •PhKACHKK OnF HUNDRED
and Eleven Years of Age.—A most ven
erable Christian patriot is dead. Elder
John Gllliert died in Clay county. Ivy., on
the 11th of March last, in the one hundred
ami eleventh year of his age.
During tiie closing year of the revolu
tionary war he rendered eilleient service
as a scout and soldier In the American
army. When the tide of population iirst
jmured across the Alleghany mountains
Into Kentucky trom Virginia and the
Carolines. Mr. Gilbert came with them
from Nortli Carolina, and settled on Red
Bird River, all that region then being in
Madison county.. On the organization of
Clay county, he was a prominent and in
fluential citizen, tilling in turn, with honor
and usefulness, almost all the local oflices,
magistrate, surveyor, slieriIf. and judge.
He was the umpire in all neighborhood
disputes, whose word settled ditheulties,
ami whose influence made friends ol
enemies.
More than sixty years ago lie was
licensed to preach the gospel, having pro
fessed religion in the great revival of
1S04, and connected himself with the old
school Baptist Church, and from that time
forward devoted all Ids time, hi* energies
and his character to the ministry.
All over the mountains of Eastern Ken
tucky ids name was a {household wont. He
visited the sick, consoled the dying, warn
ed sinners, and encouraged the believing
people of God.
Curiosities of Life Insurance.—A
few weeks ago Cyrus IV. Field, Esq* re
marked to an agent of a life insurance
company, who had been about as perse
vering in endeavoring to insure his life as
he (Mr. Field) had boon in laying the cable,
♦•I do not believe life insurance a profita
ble investment for a long-lived person. I
have had a policy of ten thousand dollars
for twenty-four years, and have paid nioie
in premiums and interest than my family
would receive were I to die now, 1 am
sure.” “Let us see,” says the agent. The
policy was produced, with the dividend
additions, and a calculation made by the
agent, the result showing that, should he
die after having the insurance for twenty-
four years, ids family would i evolve more
than six thousand dollars over and above
all premiums paid, with compound interest
added at six per cent The result seemed
so thoroughly incredible that he thorough
ly investigated it himself, and finding the
calculations correct, increased Ids insu
rance to one hundred thousand dollars,
taking twenty thousaud dollars in one
company, and policies of ten thousand dol
lars each In seven other compuuics, ul! of
which were purely mutual.
tSTA Cotton Manufacturers’ Conven
tion is to be held in New York, at the St.
Nicholas Hotel, on April 20th, to consult
on the general interests of their business.
The call far the Convention is Issued by six
of the leading Cotton Manufacturers of
Massachusetts, and the object of it is said
to be “to observe legislation with con
sistent care, aud with all proper influence
to guard against enactments hurtful or
erroneous, and promote those which shall
bo right and beneficial; to collate, digest
and disseminate among tiie members all
the attainable information und statistics
that shall In? accurate and trustworthy; to
promote cotton growing in our country,
and a recognition of the identity of inter
ests between tho cotton grower and manu
facturer; and generally to accomplish bv
associated efforts whatever may he found
right and expedient for the common good
and within tne sphere of the association.”
Miss Gay, of Gkoroia.—This estimable
and distinguished lady Is on a visit to our
city, with the view of soliciting subscrip
tions to erect a church edifice in Decatur,
Georgia. There is left but one church edi
fice in that section of country, and the peo
ple nrc too pobr to build. Miss Gay Is a
Baptist, and will be remembered by many
of our citizens as the lady who not only
personally superintended the disinterment
of ail the Texas dead on the hattle-Ueld of
Franklin, but with her personal efforts and
sacrifice raised money for re-intcring all
the Confederate dead who fell at that time
and enclosed the Cemetery with an iron
fence. She is worthy of confidence us a
lady of position, intelligence and piety.—
Nashville Banner, 22tf.
To Mark a Candle Burn all Nioiit.—
We remember seeing, some years since, in
an agricultnr.il work, now out of print, an
article on “economy of candles,* which
may be new’ and tiseftt! to many of our
readers. When, as in ease of sickness, a
dull light Is wished, or when matches are
mislaid, put finely powdered salt on the
candle till It reaches the black part of the
wick. In thU way a mild and steady light
may Ik? kept up through the night, by n
small piece of candle.

From tho above statement our readers
will readily see that the surplus corn of
Georgia and Tennessee is being sold flilly
twenty cents per bushel under its real, value.
Why Is this done ? It Is predicted by deal
ers that in less than thirty days a large ad
vance will be realized by dealers and spec
ulators. Tcolr reasons for this prediction Is
substantial. The first Is the disproportion
ate low value of corn In this section of
country ns compared with other markets;
and the second cause Is. the heavy demand
which will be made on America for bread
stuffs during the next four months from
Europe. Wc reproduce an article on this
subject from the London Saturday Re*
view:
English Need of Grain.—The London Sat
urday Review says: Eminent corn brokers
tell us that the farmers have threshed out
from fifty to sc\enty-llve per cent, of the
new crop, and they confirm our estimate
that the British crop is about twenty per
cent, short of an average In quantity, or
about three millions of quarters, making
our growth ten instead of thirteen millions
as in an average year. If half the crop
has been delivered by tho farm
era, we have consumed five mil
lion quarters less; however, tiie seed
which lias been provided for the land,
amounting to under n million, leaving
about four million Quarters as the quantity
eaten. And to this three and one-half
millions, the quantity imported from the
first of September to the end of the year,
ami we have seven ami one-half millions
of quarters as the quantity consumed and
remaining in stock. Now, ns an average
crop of thirteen millions, and an average
import of seven and one-half millions,
making together twenty and one-half mil
lions, has been found enough for the coun
try’s wants, deducting tiie million quarters
supposed to be used for seed, we have
twenty millions as the anntml consumption,
or six and one-half millions for the four
month* from Septeiu**er to December 31.
Deducting this from the to:al of farmers’
deliveries and imports for the same period,
which we have seen to be seven ami one-
half millions, than we have (January) one
million quarters stock now. plus what was
on hand in September, which was very
small, certainly mot more than half a mil
lion of quarters.
Tiie Mark Lane Express tells us that
there are two millions of quarters on tin-
way from foreign ports which we may ex
pect to receive before the spring, and, ac
cording to Messrs. Horne & Sons, five mil
lion of juurters remain in farmers’ hands,
making altoger eight and otic-half mil
lions. We have »t 11 to provide for eight
months’ consumption, equal to about thir
teen million quarters, before new harvest
can help us, so that we will have hi buy four
and one-half quarters beyond what is on
passage from foreign sources. The prob
lem then narrows Itself down to the |R>int.
whether we can obtain the required four
and one-half million quarters in the months
from April to August inclusive. What is
on passage will probably arrive in tiie
spring months, and prices may suffer a de
cline on such arrival*, but the plncti will
bo between tho time when our present
stocks and expected supplies come to an
end, and the shipments male after the re
opening of navigation In the Baltic and
Black heas. Nor should we conceal from
our renders the grave doubts ns to the abil
ity of the United States to spare much
wheat and flour beiore another harvest.
If America should fail us, we confess our
selves unable to conjecturo any alternative
source of supply, and the knowledge that
France has not yet satisfied her wants, is
sufficient to keep the corn trade in an ex
ited state.
lMrKACii.MF.NT.—Judge Boutwcll, who Is
to open tiie filial argument summing up of
the evidence presented, will speak Wed
nesday, and will occupy the entire day.—
On Thursday Mr. Evans will speak for die
defense, and on Friday, Mr. Stanbery will
make the closing argument, or, In ease of
his indisposition, Mr. Groesbeek or Mr.
Nelson will speak. Tho last argument will
Ims by Mr. Binghum on Saturday, accord
ing to the present arrangement of the pro
gramme. it is believed ilmt neither Mr.
Boutwell nor Mr. Evarts will occupy more
than a day each. Mr. Stanbery may, how
ever, continue his remarks over to the next
day, being unite feeble. Mr. Blnglmm, on
wliom devolves the wor- of replying to tiie
arguments of both of the counsel lor the
defense, may possible require two days, as
his health is not sueii as to enable him to
speak more than three or four consecutive
hours.
The arguments will undoubtedly be
closed on Saturday or Monday, and the
Senate will then hold secret sessions for
tiie consideration of tho whole matter. In
these sessions, each Senator will be limited
to ten minutes* time in speaking on an In
terlocutory question, aud fifteen minutes
on the filial question, unless further time
be granted by a majority vote.
Idle articles will be voted on separately
In open court, an the general result will be
in uowise affected by a failure to sustain
any single article, the sustaining ol any
single article being equally as effective as
though all were sustained. It Is believed
that the question of conviction or acquittal
will bo finally decided by tho middle pi
next .week.—Washington istar, 20th.
Helper and IIolden.—One of the
“Helpers” (11. 11.) Is making a terrible
tight .upon Holden, the renegade sccesh,
now the Republican candidate for Gover
nor of North Carolina. Helper Is repub
lishing ail the old secesh articles aud
speeches of Holden, which don't read well
now, and caricaturing him In pictures in
all sorts of ways. The effect lias been
such, even upon the negroes, that great ef
forts arc being made to force him off die
track. Congress can hardly “qualify”
him, if elected, after these Helper ex
posures.
OT Tho Louisville Democrat says;
“Yankee? Let tho name cease to be are-
f irouch. The Democracy of Connecticut
lave redeemed it and made it glorious.’
That Is cheap applause from the pit.
OT Tho appearance of a newspaper In
Alaska has alrwuly been announced. It Is
called the Alaska Herald, and Is printed In
Russian and English.
A Field of niooil.
The soil of Bladensburg. Maryland, has
a bloody record. It has been the scene of
many a refined murder In days past. One
who visits the place now will find the field
green with verdure, which a few years
since was trampled by tho feet of men ar
rayed in deadly hostility. Here,on a beau
tiful grass plot, surrounded by trees, forms
made after the image of Gou, came to in
sult nature and defy heaven. In 1811, Ed
ward Hopkins was killed here in a duel.
This seems to have been the first of these
fashionable murders on this duelling
g round. In 1818, A. T. Mason, a United
tates Senator from Virginia, fought with
his sister’s husband, John McCarty, here.
McCarty was averse to fighting, and
thought there was no necessity for it; but
Mason would fight. McCarty named mus
kets, loaded with buckshot, and so near to
gether that they would hit heads If they fell
oh their faces. This was changed by the
seconds to loading with bullets,and taking
twelve feet us tiie distance. Mason was
killed Instantly, and McCarty, who had his
collar-bone broken, still lives with Mason's
sister in Georgetown. HU hair turned
white so soon after the tight as to cause
much comment. He lias since been solic
ited to act as second in a duel, but refused,
in accordance with a pledge made to ids
wife soon after killing her brother. In
1820, .Commodore Decatur was killed by
Commodore Barron. At the first tire both
fell forward, and lay with their iieads with
in ten feet of each other, and as each sup
posed himself mortally wounded, each
fully and freely forgave the other, still
lying on the ground. Decatur expired in
a few days, but Barron eventually recov
ered. in 1821, two strangers, named Legu
and Sega, appeared here and lought, and
Sega was instantly killed. The neigh
bors only learned this much of
their names irmu the marks of the
gloves lett on the ground. Lega was not
hurt. Ill 1822, Midshipman Locke was
killed here in a duel with a clerk of the
Treasury Department, mimed Gibson. The
tatter was not hurt. In 1820. Henry Clay,
fought hi» second duel with John Ran
dolph, just aeross tiie Potomac, as Ran
dolph preferred to die, if at ail, on Virginia
soil. The latter received Clay's shot and
then fired ins pistol in tiie air. This was
in accordance with a declaration made to
Mr. Benton, who spoke to Randolph of a
call the evening beiore on Mis. Clay, and
alluded to the qu esc p of her child, aud
the repo&c ol lue mother Randolph
quickly replied, “1 shall do nothing to dis
turb tiie sleep ol the child or the repose of
the mother.” General Jessup was Clay's
second. When Kumloiph tired he remark
ed, -i *:o not shoot at you, Mr Clay,” and
extending Ids hand, auvauced toward Clay
who rushed to meet him. Randolph
showed Clay where the ball struck ids
coat, and said facetiously, "Mr. Clay, you
owe me a coat.' "thank God, ihcdcbtis
no greater.” They were friends ever af
ter. In 1802, Martin was here kiileil by
Carr. Their first names were not remem
bered. They were from the South, in
1833, Mr. Key (son of Frank Key, and
brother of Barton Key.) uiet_ Mr. Sherhoti,
and Mr. Sherboii said. "Mr. Key, I have no
desire to kill y«»u.” "No matter,” said
Key. I have come to kill you.” "Very,
well, then,” said Sherboii. "1 will now kill
you,” and lie did. ill 1845. a lawyer named
Jones fought with and killed Or. Johnson.
In In51, It. A. Iloole and A. J. Dallas Inula
ho-tile meeting here. Dallas was shot in
the shoulder, tmt recovered. In 1853,
Daniel aud Johnson, two Richmond edi
tors. held a harmless set-to here, which
terminated in coilec. In 1853. Davis and
Uidgway fought here; Ridgway allowed
Ids antagonist to lire without returning
the shot.
Anecdote of Butler —Dr. , of New
Orleans, is in Washington at present. lie
was a delegate from Lousiana to the
Charleston ('invention, and a si rung Doug
lass man. When the Breckinridge faction
withdrew from the Convention, they went
over to the Maryland institute, and held
their Convention in that place. In pass
ing out of tiie Convention, Butler accosted
Dr. , and said: "Doctor, why kou't you
get away from this crowd of u—d Aboli
tionists, aud come over among gentlemen f”
tSfTn tiie town of Milton. Wayne coun
ty, Indiana, the other night, a party of
about twenty women, with the assistance
of four or live men, visited Crane’s and
Bratton’s whisky shops, broke down the
doors with axes, demolished tiie furniture,
ami spilled the fiery fluid in tiie street.
This action is supposed to indicate a pre
judice in tiie minus of the Miltonian ama
