What Leonard Watson Found In the Postolllcc. BY AMY GRAHAM. . She wns sittiug in tbe prettiest of bedrooms, writing busily ; sometimes tlie blue eyes filled with mirtb, as the rapid pen jotted down some odd conceit or queer expression ; again sbo would toss back ber bright curls, aud a saucy smile weuld cross her little mouth, as mischief flowed from the small golden point of her weapon. One after another, the little sheets of note paper were filled with dainty diameters, folded and slipped into the snowy envelopes. Suddenly the pretty writer paused. Resting ber little dimpled chin on her band, she sank into reverie, the blue eyes lost their smiling light, the rosy mouth folded into a sweet, earnest gravity, as she sat buried in thought. - "If I only dared," she whispered "if I only dared." Then, with a quick impulse, she s lected a sheet of paper somewhat larger than those she had been using, nud began to write again, uot, as before, merry and careless, but with doop earnestness, the rapid pen evidently tracing words of grave import, and weight. Ouo she paused, and folding her little hands, raised her hands in prayer. As she scalded the long letter, she. did what she had neglected befofe directed it, irj a -clear pretty hand, and then placed it carefully iu her writing desk. Again she coutinued her task, sometimes a scrap of verse, a racy quotation, or even an address, filled the sheet, but often-er a little graceful note was written and folded. She was still busy, when laughing voices in the ball. made her pause. " "Come right up, girls. I am in my room,' she called. . :. And in answer to the summons, four gay belles -of Clarieville came dashing into tbe room, with " Ilow many have yon written, Amy i" ' ' . Oh, ever so many I don't know.. Let me see yours." And a shower of snowy billets fell from eignt white hands into her lap, while the four girls eagrrly opened aud read the missives upon the table. . "We've sold every ticket," cried Leobore Darcy, the brunette, whose charms bad cet half Ulaireville in a ferment. "All 1" said Amy. "That hall will be packed I" "Yes," said pretty Mabel Lee, "and everybody says the postoflke will be tho most attractive feature of our fair. I am so glad you suggested it, and if it was late, we've got A good pilo of letters written." fc There," said Amy, signing a note with ''Gnbriclla," in the most miuuto characters, "there's my last sheet of paper and my last ounce of brains. I nra utterly exhausted." ' "But, Amy, yon won't feel exhausted to morrow, soid demure busy Jones, "when we hand dear Mr. Rivers a nice Bum of money to he'p him re build the parsonaga" . "That dreadful hre I said Amy shuddering. "Mother says she don't approve of fairs geuerally, but when one's minister is burned out, and the money won't come in fast any -.1 I Ml Ul I 1 1. - oiuer war, rvgy, otiuu uuao uubws uuu iuud, pincushions with the best of us' "And then yon know," said Mabel, earnefit-l ly, "there will be no rattling nor cheatirrc;, and the articles are all pretty, and good' ot their kiud. "Girls, is it not time to drss f said Snsy, consulting a wee watch at her belt, "we open at seven." "The tables are all ready." "Ttne, but it is arter live now, and everybody wants time for at least one extra touch to their finery, when they must face all Claire ville." "Scatter, then," said Amy, lancrhing. "Run home, all of yon t Leave the letters here ; I will take care of them. I am to be post mistress, you know." .. . ".N ot a bit of it, sum Leonora. " on are only to sit in tbe background and direct th envelopes, which I will deliver to anxious inquirers." , . . "Whew I how important we are !" was the merry answer. And the laughing group dispersed.The largo hall of Claireville was briliiautly illuminated when two hours later the young girls aunounced all in rcadjooss for opening the doorg. . Tbe pretty table?, tasteful decorations, and groups of lowly girls, made no mean picture ; and, Claireville walked about, admired, and above alL purchased the full contents of the lair origiuators of the entertainment ' .. Hidden away from sight by the full folds of a curtain, Amy fat enshrined in the postolliee. answering Loonora's coll fiii -letter, Bu;y ex. citetneut had fi'ii-hed ht r frair cheeks, and, as hvt pen traced rami liar names, one al ter an. t-t'inr, emilej chafccu eacu other over lips and fyfs. Suddenly a call from Nora mode her I turn pale i bor fingers ticmbled oi sbo drew from bor bosom the letter slio bud written, with a prayer. It was fully directed yut Bke hesitated, holding it as if reluctant to let it go. ... "Come, Amy. Is thorn nothing for Mr. Leonard Watson 7 cried Loonora. , The latter wns slipped through the appointed placo in the cHrtuin, and Amy drew a quick breath of apprehension as she heard (he manly voico that suitl, "Thank you, Mibs Unrcy. "Is ho angry I" she whispered "if he should be angry 1" But Leonard Watson had slipped the letter carelessly into the breast pockot of his coat, and was Sauntering in his usual lazy manner down tbe ball, lie was a tall, nanusoine man with a broad forehead aud large eyes, which spoke well for bis heart and intellect : but with tbe bluso air and dthonnaire manner of oue for whom the world bad oll'ered its pleas ures to satiety, and who had not lenruod tO look for lifes purposo in tluty. The little world of Claireville spoke -well of Leonard Watson. The girls admired his courtly gallantry, his polished manner, aud honied words, the young men applundod bis generosity, bis wines, bis horses, and his good temper ; the older beads wore ready to worship bis wealth, his birth, and there a word whispered of lute revels at Fairbanks, of an occasional lapse into iuobriety, or dropped a biut that "youog Watson was living too fast."' There were many bright belles who cher ished a secret belief of Leonaru s market! prel-erence, yet the gay heurt was untouched, the traveled taste unsatisfied, and ho was a free man, in word or thoucht, nshesnnutered from the fuir atjCluireville with Amy's letter lying upon his breast. It was night, and be was alone iu the library of bis spacious bouse before he recollected the missive ; then with an indolent curiosity he drew it forth. "Some. flat school-girl vsrses, or, worse, a doso of flattery veiled by an in- DL'UlLo. At brst be read with a lazy expression oi mockery upon bis lips ; but as tbe lines were traced with earnest care, so, as he' read, the man's soul was roused to thought and interest. Hot, aicry blushes chased each other over his brow, yet he did not flinch j every word of the appeal, though it stuug him with the scorching truth aud searching question, was perused fuithfully, till, at the end the dainty signature, "Your sincere friend," found bira serious aud sad. "It is all true, he said in a low tone, rising, and pacing the floor with quick yot even steps. "I am wasting all God's blessings- squandering my wealth foolishly ; undermin ing my health wickedly ; flinging my best years away in folly, if not vice. Ilow earnestly she writes I and her "dear brother" seems from ber very heart" V bo wrote it 7 ua I tbe same band on the envelope as inside, and it was directed by Amy Greyson. Amy Ureyson I ! always thought her a merry, light-hearted rhild, but this this is tbe letter or a noble, earnest Christian woman. Ilow beautifully she writes! Yet yet how sh despises me 1 Ilow she Insnes my tollies and vices I wita wnai ot ter sarcasm she questions my course 1 yet how earnestly she implores me to pause while there is yet time, and think or where tho patn i tread will load me ! Think ! Ah, she has raised a train of tholtht now that will never die that I can never quiet again I Conscience is alive now, and there is no more careless folly for me." Ud and down, pacing sometimes with the slow tread of earnest thought, ngain rapidly crossing the room, bis foot falling with passionate emphasis, he spent the hours till long after midnight ; and when at last, be sougni his own room, Leonard Watson, for ihe first time in long years, knelt and implored Hod s blessings on nis resolutions for the future. Claireville wondered what had "come over the yonng millionare. Old tennuts, who had been wont to look npon their young landlord as an easy coini scamp, began to open their eyes over sanitary improvements in their low ly bomes ; cuarny appeals . Degan to uuu n ready response at the large bouse j musty books, that had long given, bis office a name, now began to fuifiuheir mission, as the young lawyer loaded bis brains for service i old friends wondered bow Leonard ccnid preserve his genial brightness, his generosity, wit, and grace ; yet hold tho reins ofhis follies with such a strong firm band ; new hand ; new ac-quaintnncesspoko warmly of the conscientious, able advocate, who was steadily working his way to future omiuence.. - But in one bouse there were tears of thanksgiving, prayers of humble praise, as Amy Greysou heard from every tongue of the reform of that uoble yonng life ; aud wheu after a year's probations words of love and petition greeted ber as the young lawyer implored her to be his wife to aid him by love and presence in maintaining tho new lifo he owed to ber suggestions, she humbly thanked Heaven, for the impulse tha bad prompted her to write the letter Leonard Watson found in the pojloflice at the Claireville Fair., ;; Information from Stoneman's , Cavalry. : 'KnoxviLLi April 2, 10 P.

Sherman's army nro enjoying a season of rest n,t this placo, I concluded to send you a short communication to inform our many friends in old Knox that we are all "O.K." I would like to give you a dutuilod account of our march of over 300 utiles, from Pocotaligo, South Carolina, through tho very hot bed of secession, but the Northorn papers havo already published the details. I will briefly onumer- gto a few of tbe most Important movements made by the Army of the Tennessee, com- muotted by that Chrlstiun boro, Maj.-Gonorul 0.0. Howard. . . - We 'started from Pocotaligo January 29th, and only marched five miles till we encoun tered au enemy. Tho rebels were in Bmafl forco however, and had to rotroat before our army to prevent their -being captured. The country thron?h which wo marched for the first few days bnfllos description, being littla better than a continuation of swamps and morasses, through which wo waded, or swam, as it might be called. But there has no obstacle ever existed in the Southern Confederacy that could long impede the advance of Sherman's army. On through swamps, brakes and for ests -we moved, iu such perfect confidence of our leader's ability that wo did not seem to reckon the hardships we were enduring. We laughed at tha silly threats of the rebels to "gobble" Sherman and his army, and many a joko we cracked on the subject The rebels, whethor North or South, are alwnys ready to try the effect of a scare, but in the case of Sherman's army, thoy could not "catch old birds with chuff," and we know that as wo had already whipped their veterans under Johnson and Hood, their boys and old men were not going lo whip us bad. Our march to Columbia, S. C, was a bril liant affair, and managed with the consummate skill and precision for which Gen. Sherman's movements are remarkable. Our progress was of course often delayed by swamps, creeks, and rivers, which we were compelled to pontoon in order to got our trains across-Bnt the true soldier borrows no trouble for the state of the roads, or even the inclem ency of the weather, and onward we marched through on enemy's country, overcoming obstacles which they thomselves declared to be insurmountable uolumbio, Winsboro , Ube- raw, all tall in our victorious path, and ot last we leave the cradle of treason and enter the old North State. Fayettevillo, containing important rebel works nnirt fell, and hpra it opened communication with the fleet and troops at Wilmington. ' From Fayetteville we cams to this place, and hero we are to rest, so Gen. Sherman says in bis congratulatory order. We all feel that we deserve somo rest and we enjoy it all tho more for having dcserved.it As soldiers, we cannot realize how men culling themselves Americans, could remain idle spectators while the fight of Freedom, the battles of their country were being fought We can fiud no lunguage sufficiently strong to express the con tempt we teel lor such miserable cowards, or traitors, who could only rejoice when our no ble army met with a reverse, or when tboir friends and neighbors were slaughtered in the fight. Snch men are not worthy to enjoy the boon of Freedom, and should seek homes "across the border," or iu some clime mora congenial to their tastes and pursuits. Sir Walter Scott has given ns a true picture of the future of these modern Judasts, when he sings so fervently of love of country. He asks: "Llreaahcro a man with aoul so deal, Who uerer to himself hath said 'This is my own my natire land V n ,...... - And how plainly does' he show such traitors the'f doom : - .

This shall be the fate of all traitors, wheth er they hail from North or South. For many of the deluded people at the South, we cannot but express admiration for their bravery un-(Ipr the most trying circumstances, and we shall alwnys be ready to admit that it was worthy of a bettor cause ; but for those igno-bio, dastardly fellows at the North, who in sheer cowardice pulled ont their front teeth to exempt them from service I we feel that such men are not worthy of the Indian punishment for cswords : to bo stripped of man's attire, and assume the petticoat of Peace.(7 That there are snch men even in glorious old Knox, we have indisputable evidence for we are kept well posted on those matters, by our friends at home. I nm prepared to give tbe names of a few of these toothless adventurers, and I could add many more; but let this pass for tho preseut. ' Yours truly, Wm. L. Phillips, .'V Company G, 20th 0. V. V.

In regard to this matter tbe Lexington Unionist speaks thus emphatically I - "In contusion, we have to say that we do not believe the General Assembly should ad mit such rebels as R Douglas, Samuel R. Wilson, D. D., R. Morrison, D. II. Coulter, and others, to seats in that venerable' body. Thru are rebels against the National Govern meut, and schismatics in the Church, and dis turbers of the peace geuerally. If we were to tell all we know and have heard oboat Doug las and Wilson, we do not believe they would be allowed to remain in this State, aod we question whether they would not b) dealt with in pretty severe manner." The General Assembly should Inquire Into the character of the Commissioners named, and exclude there, in case the charges are substantiated. , A "high piivate," of extraordinary diraen along, lumbered into the presence of General Thomas, and asked for a furlough, adding, "General. I want to tro home and see mv wife." 'How long has it been since youhave seen your wife f inquired the General. "Why," ho auswered, "I have not seen her for over three months." "Three mouths I" exclaimed tho General. I'Wby I have not gecu my wife for three years." ' "Well, that may be," rejoined the other, "but you see, General; me aud my wife ain't o that sort' Of course he got his furlough after that rub.

If any Rebel ever thought it would bo well for his clan to have Andrew Johnson in tho White House rather" than Abruham Liucolu, ho is bitterly mistaken," In another articlo on Mr. Siwabd, the TVi- iunesays: "Gov.

An inflexible foo to the Rebellion and its inciting cause, he has never hated its authors, because be bears bate to nothing which God bos mado. And if the fortunes of war shall place tho Rebel leaders in the power of Andrew Johnson, they will have reason to bless God that there survives to intercede for thorn ono so merciful by na ture and so influentfnl by character and posi tion as William H.

"When seed corn has not been saved in autumn," writes an experiencad person, "t should be selected from the crib with much care. Chooso the long ears, with large kcrnals and small cob. Let every ear be broken in two, beforo shelling. If the pith and cob be bright, the seed will vegetate; but if they appear to have been water-soaked and are dark-oolored, aud somewhat mouldy, the vitality of the germs has been injured, if not entirely destroyed. Then with an ax cut off an inch of the top end of tbe ears selected, all the irregular kernels at the large end. They can be cut off quicker than shelled off. - The small kernels on the tip, tnd irregular ones on tbe butt of the ear will not produce as much, nor as handsome graiu as those that grow in tho middle of tho cob. By continuing to plaut the small kernels of the little eod of ears, for a few years la succession, the ears will b shorter, and the kernels smaller; and the irregular kernels of the butt end will produce pars destitute of kernels In rows. The writer once planted irregular kernels for a few successive, years, and the product was short, thick ears, the kernels of irregular form, not in rows. On large cobs. When seed com is obtained from another part ot the country, it will Usually ripen earlier when carried south of tbe locality whore it grew. A few mile), however, would make no prcccptible difference. The practico of some rurmers in Central New York is, to obtain seed that grow nenr the shores of lakes and rivers, which had ripened tou to fourtnen days before that grown on tho upland. By this means their cflro is usually fit to cut up ft few days sooner thnn it would have been, if they had planted their own s ed, aud will often es cope early frosts." itrterictin Agriculturist.

ANDREW JOHNSON, By the President: -, W; Hunter, Ass't Secretary of Stale. - How General Lec Surrendered- A correspondent of the Cin. Gusetle, thus describes the interview between Lee and Grant at the time of the surrender of the rebel army. At 10 o'clock A. M., Generals Grant and Lee hold a couferencd on the brow of the hill, a short distance north of tho Court House. General Grant and his staff had been waiting but a moment when General Lee, accompanied by an orderly, cantered up, and rode to the Bido or the Lieutenant General, Gen. Grant's Ltaff Generals Ord, Grifiiu, Gibbons, and. Sheridan, with their rospectivo staffs were present, grouped in a semi-circle about tbe central figut. The country to tbe north was open nnd cultivated. TheOourt ITouso is situated on a ridge of small hills running east nnd west and Lee's Army was on a parallel . range wilh a small ravine and stream between nearly due north of our armies. At the boad of bit column were bis trains aud artillery, aud his infantry and cavalry were in the roar, so that but a small portion of tho Rebel army could be seen from tho Court House. 'As Gen. le galloped up. Gen. Grant rode out two or three rods to moet him. Gen, Lee rode squarely up, saluted in military fashion 'and wheeled to the side of Gen. Grant They con. versed earnestly for nearly two hours nntil the officers appointed on both sides to carry out tbe stipulations of the surrender bad re. ported for duty. In the coorso of tbe discus, aion Gen. Lee expressed the opinion that if Geo. Grant had accepted his proposition for an interview in person several weeks since peace would probably have resulted. The greater part of the conversation which passed between two of the grealeat military men in the world upon this occasion was of course private and unheard by any but the spoakers; but we gathered enough to koow that Lee gives np the idea of Southern inde. pendeoce as hopeless, aod considers that any further resistance on their part wonld bo a nieless and wanton effusion of blood. . Tho rebel officers in conversation almost noairi. monsly express the opiuion that Jobuston will also iurreudor ihe forces under his command when be hears of tho surrender of the army of Lee. - A liltlo before eleven, tbe Interview olosed by General Lee salutina: and tiding slowly down the slope, cro- the ravine, and on iuto bis camp upon the little hill beyond.
