have the pleasure of an agricultural
•address from Mr Samuel 11. Barnett,
(appointed by the State Agricultural
Society to cinvus.s the State.) of Wash
ington, Wilkes comity, Georgia. It is
the wish of the Society for all to unite
in the permanent formation of a society,
and the establishment of a Fair, and
other ends which will prove of benefit
to nil We feel very sensibly,' the ne
cessity of an improvement in our agri
cultural system, and by a free inter
change of opinions we hope to bring
abnit a change and reform that shall
show us that we are gaining ground.
Blessed as we are, with good soil, conve
nient. to railroads, and a market for
grain, hay, stock and provisions of all
s >rts, we fuel it due to ourselves to cx

as t > prevent our people from relying on
(he \Y cat for their supplies, and keep

btatc for stock, provisions, Ac. We
would beg of you to aid us in an object
of such importance, both to us and to
all parts of the State; and cordially bc
sponk your lriendly co-operation. We
would respect fully urge upon the people
of this county, the organization of a
County Fair, believing that it would
greatly stimulate a feeling of pride in
each, to excel in the products of his va
rious crops, the raising of
hotter stock, and a general improvement
in our firming system. The spirit with
which our people in various parts of the
State have gone into the holding of
f'irs, has shown us the truth of this
proposition. Unanimity of action is
an important clement of success in all
undertakings, and we sincerely trust you
will greet us with* your presence and
give us your aid in this enterprise.
“ Keep not your lights under a bushel,
hut let your light so shine, that others,*
seeing your good work, may follow after
you." Let us givo a lo»f *crvng
pull and a pull all together. Let none
stand idle, while action is so necessary,
but all put their shoulders to, and roll
on the wheel of improvcmknt, to insure
success in so important an undertaking.
Let us go to work with a zeal that will
show to the world that we are not going
to be outdone by a few failures. Let re
trenchment and reform be our motto.
Eet us diminish our expenses, increase
our supplies and improve our soil.

Strange Story About Grant.
A few days after the capture of Fort
Sumter, in April 1 SGI, when the voice
of the whole country was for war, we
had a conversation with a gentleman
who was an officer in the Mexican war,
and who besides, in Ohio, has obtained
eminence as a civilian, that we have often
thought id* since. Said he to us : “1
saw to-day an old comrade of mine in
Mexico, a West Pointer, but who re
signed his position in the army a few
years ago. I asked him why he wasn’t in
uniform, and expressed my surprise that
he was not already a eonlonel or general
of volunteers. 11 is reply was : U I think
you and I have had fighting enough.
What I want in this war is a place by
which I can make some money.’” He
sought to get that place here. lie made
an effort to be selected by the Govern
ment as a buyer of horses, but failed.
He next endeavored to borrow a few
hundred dollars of a military friend of
ours, then aud now, in the regular army
fur the purpose of entering into a busi
ness where he could get patronage.
Being refused, he applied to General
Burns for a position in the Commissary
Depratment in this city, but failed also
in getting it. There being nothing
here to suit him, lie wended his way
back to Illinois, and became a sort of
secretary to Governor Yates, and every
thing else being unsuccessful, he chose
at last to go into the army. But he did
not want to go where there was fighting
at all. It was money he was after, and
money he has made as General and Pres
ident of the United States. If he had
obtained the position he asked for. as a
buyerof horses, the country would have
had a competent if not an honest man in
that place, and we should not now have
had a bad President, who makes the
filling of his purse his principle business.
The Value of Hoop-skirts.
Correspondent of the New York Sun
—Plattsburn N. Y.—An incident s > rJ
man tie and unusual, and with a deuon
ment so pleasing, occurred near here
one day recently, that I send the partic
ulars to you. Lake Champlain, on which
this place is situated, is one of the most
beautiful sheets water probably in Amer
ica. and Cumberland Bay. where one ol
the most brilliant naval ehjrairements of
the war of 1814 was fought and won by
Commodore McDonough, of the Ameri
can fleet, against the British, under
C unmodore Downie, furnishes one of the
grandest skating parks or ponds one
could wish to flee. It is the favorite re
sort of the yo»ng ladies and gentlemen
of this vicinity on moonlight evenings.
One evening a short time since, a young
lady and gentleman of this village, who
had frequently been skating upon the
bay before.* went out upon the bay, but
believing in the old maxim that two is
company,” went to an unfrequeuted
part, where they could enjoy the skating
and each other’s society unmolested.
After skating for some time near the
shore the gentleman proposed that they
should go further out, where the ice was
smoother, to which she consented, and
they accordingly ventured out about two
miles. Here they found the ice in a
beautiful condition, and the gentleman
was proceeding to the grape vine, for
ward and backward roll, together with
many other fancy figures only known to
accomplished skaters, when suddenly
the ice gave way beneath him, and in a
moment he found himself struggling in
the water and unable to extricate him
self, the ice breaking as fast as he at
tempted to raise himself on its edg r .
The young lady, true to her womanly
instincts, began to scream at the top of
her voice, but the privacy they had
sought had taken them beyond the heal
ing of all who could have been of any
service to them. lie besought her to
go to the shore and endeavor to procure
assistance; but she well knew lie must
perish before she could get back, should
she find no difficulty in gettingasssistance.
Then an idea came into her head, and
she immediately put it into execution.
She first took off her jacket and dress,
and tying them together, undertook to
reach him with one end ; but it was too
short, as the yielding ice warned her
when she moved toward him. and en
deavored to throw him one end. What
more could she do? if she was to save
him no time was to be lost, for the young
man was rapidly becoming exhausted.
For a moment her hands disappeared in
the dnpery about her waist, and then
something fell on the ice about her feet
—it was her hoop-skirt. This was
quickly severed into half a dozen
pieces and added to the jacket dress, and
to her great delight, this made the line
long enough to reach him. Bravely she
tugged atone end of it while he clutched
the other with the grip of a man who
knew that that was all which stood be
tween him and eternity. In a few min
utes she landed him safely on the solid
ice, and then the red jacket and dress
were wrapped about her as best they
fehey arrived without being not iced
by any one. Few were the words spoken
on the journey home; as the wedding
suits are ordered, and before the ice
shall disappear from our beautiful lake
this spring they will be married.
Female Society.
Do not comm end to those persons
wli) would prohibit the association of*
the sexes under any discreet circum
stances. What is it that makes all those
men who associate habitually with wo
men superior to others who do not ?
What makes that woman who is accus
tomed and at **ase in society of men su
perior to her sex in general ? Solely
because they are in the habit of free,
graceful, continued conversations with
the other sex. Women in this way lose
their frivolity, their faculties awaken,
their delicacies and peculiarities unfold
all their beauty and captivation in the
spirit of intellectual rivalry. And the
men lose their pedantic, rude, declama
tory, or sullen manner. The coin of the
understanding and the heart changes
continually. Their asperities are rub
bed off. their better materials polished
and brightened, and their richness, like
the gold, is wrought into finer workman
ship by the fingers of women than it
ever could be by those of men. The
iron and steel of their characters are
hidden, like the character and armor of
a giant, hut studs and knots of good and
precious stones, when they are not want
ed in actual warfare.
A baby was found at Indianapolis,
and the ladies who took the responsibility
of rearing it thought it would be proper
to give the child a respectable name.
They named it after a bachelor of the
city, of the highest respectability and a
member of the church. He istheuiad
dert man you ever saw. lie says, and
swears (it’s the first time he’s said a
sweary word since he j’ined.) that it’s
no such thing. When last heard from,
he was writing a petition to the legisla
ture to change his name. Those ladies
have much to answer for.
The Dahomian language is easy to
learn. The word jug is expressed by
say i ng. see—noo—a—noo—cc—a—voo-tong.
The moon is hath-ee-a-hing-flnsh-do

Dahomian belle, to express the word
beautiful, he must pronounce cee—nin
dag—bee—a—dag-bee. Sixteen is an

Congress ought to order all its acts print

The President’s messages would make a
much better figure in it than they do in
English.
A young buck of the soap lock order,
who wore an unshaven face, and hair
parted in the middle, because, as he said,
“it looked foreign,” lately accosted a

“I say, fellow, some individuals think
I am a Frenchman, and some take me
for an Etalyean ; now what do you think

“Wall, I think you are a darned fool,”
replied Jonathan.
