Geaeral Thomas' View f the Situation.
The Kashville Frees. Union, and limes ot
Antrustsavs:
The hich esteem "which the Union men of
Tennessee have lor Major-General Thonas will
render the loiiowmg extract irom a private
letter written bv him to a distinguished inetn-
. her of the Lower Branch of the Legislature,
very interesting:
Accost 3. 1868. On mv return to Louisville
from an Inspection trip to West Tennessee, I
had the honor to receive your favor of the
lfith ultimo.
I agree with you that the state of affairs in
Tennessee, to fr as I can judeo by reading the
naners. is tar from pacific. 1 oelieve, however,
If the newspaper report of an interview between
some ot the late conieaeiate ouicers ana a com-
then there is 6onie hope of a peaceable and
amicable adjustment ot the difficulties now
threatening the peace and welfare of the State.
I read with much interest the speeches, or
rather; assut ances, riven by bulb, parties, and
I am clad to tind that they were mutually con
ciliatory and friendly. I therefore sincerely
hone that thev may be able to arrange a peace
ful plan of settlement, and that Tenuessee may
be in a nrospcrous condition at an early day.
It will require the utmost care to reconcile
the rocrlicting interests, but I sincerely hope
the Legislature will be equal to the task Imposed
upon it.
A Hot fcnmmer Fifty Years Ago.
A letter from Mr. Thomas Barnes, of Devom
phire, Englnud, Las just appeared in the London
Gardtners1 L'lironic'e, in which a hot summer
fifty years ago is described. Mr. Barucs says:
"The vear 1818. now fifty years ago, was tho
lontrest. hottest, and driest summer. I ever re'
member. TaUvera wheat had been only intro.
tluccd a fow years, and was then just getting
into general repute. A hilly neiu racing
the south was sown with this wheat in the
autumn ot 1M7. It was ripe und cut -on the
20th of June; tome of it was threshed on the
2d of July, ground ou the 4th, and breud
made from it on the same day. The owner of
the held was a large miller. X his was the ear.
liest wheat I ever saw. The whole harvest was
peueral bv the 7th of July, ana all cut and
cleared by ubout tho 25th of that month. The
whole country was ot the same color; not a
blade of green grass was to be seen not even a
lnrnin or cabbage: cftttle perished for the lack
of lood and water: immen.e numbers of large
irH died, nlantutions on dry brashy soils, and
everything In many hedges for long distanoes
died right out. Trees that lived lost their
lmvpf noordehad to co nianv miles lor water
and pay doar for It; for all that, wo had alter-
watUB OUtt OI tUtJ IUU31 I'lt'lJluul, (piui-iwud,
fruitful seasons I evor jet saw or remeuiDcr to
have seen. Wheat was a wonderful crop, and
so pood in ciualitv that the broad was splendid;
both it and wheat were soon reduced in prtce
by two-thirds. IUrlev and lent or spring-sown
. crops were generally short, particularly lute
, sown, as it never uttd uuy rain irom seeu lime
till harvest. The best barlev was iusteaualin
price Willi wheat, the only perlol I recollect it
being to In my time; hops were a wonderfnl
crop, and first-rate in quality; they came down to
Is. per pound; apples Irom Is. to 3s. per bushel:
and the best Orleans plums and other good!
varieties realised from 2s. to 2s. 6d. per bushel,
and plenty of common plums were sold at id.
per quart; cherries, id. per pound.
"When the fine rains set in in September ths
land was so sweetened and pulver.eed. hot as a
turnsceor hotbed, smoking like a lime kiln,
that folks said it was too late for turnips; how
ever, some cultivators did venture, the seed
vegetated so qnickly that the rows were green
or most luxuriant in six weeks, and there was
pi educed most splendid turnip, as large as a
child's head. As to grass and other vegetation,
ln,a few weeks they were so luxuriant, plenti
ful, and of each a splendid quality, that all
kirds of stock throve and fattened at such a
rate as was never before seen."
Great Men or New York.
'Macanlay," who ranks among the most
brilliant correspondents ot the press, thus de
lends Mew York, in the columns of the Roches
ter Demotrat. irom the imputations ot Mr.
Bcccher:
Mr. Bcecher staled recently that this city
produced no great men. He should have quali
fied this assertion with some important excep
tions, unless be is willing to have his accuracy
impugned. It is true New York does not supply
Itself with population, but depends on emi
gration both from the Old World and from the
inland districts of America: nevertheless,
Its citizens can exhibit some men who
may rank among the great. For In
stance, John Jay was a native of this
city, as readers of our national history will
only need to hear his name to acknowledge Its
crcatness. Accident ol birth forbids New Vork
to claim Alexander Hamilton or De Witt Clinton
among her children; but, though not born In
this city, tney came here at au early nee. and
here developed theirfubscquent greatness. Sow
York has given birth to three Governors of the
(State. These were Morgan Lewis, who fifty
years ago filled on Important paae in history,
and Hamilton Fi.sh, who was a popular aud sue
ccssful executive. To Jt bn Jay reference hns
already been mode. Daniel D. Tompkins and
De W Itt Clinton were bred ot the New York bar,
nun irom u were cnosen to ou tne executive
chair. In literature New York points to such
children as Charles Fenno HotTmau, and Jo..
seph Hodman Drake, author of the "Ameri
can r ing." ana caa uico boast or Washington
frying, whoso three brothers, Peter, the editor,
vviiiium, me mercnant, ana Jonn I., tne at
torney (aud subsequently a Judge), were all
distingu'sned men. Among clergymen the
famous John Mason, the thunderer of his-day,
acd the btilliant Starr King, so recently mourn
ed, were born hero. In the present day, the
most eminent mercnant in America is a New
Yorker. We refer to Moses Tavlor. who has
for thirty years been accorded this position by
tho common opinion of a great commercial
emporium. Moses Taylor is now about sixty
years old, ana tnougn a retired man, still de-
Hunts in maintaining uis business nuoits. I5ut
iu his prime he was the admiration of all Sout h
street. Let the reader imagine a lorm graceful
aud elegant, a countenance radiant with life and
bt'nrmc an expression of penetration which is
seldom met. and a ratduitv oi execution which
few could lollow, and he will have some idea ot
Moicn Taylor. Such was bis self-consciousness
of power that he wieheJ no partner. lie was
ored in tne greatest nouse in sout li stieet, and
ntn they ouered mm a vainanie interest he
declined, and commenced on his own accouut
nn extensive commerce. This he managed
with the aid of two talented clerks, one of whom
has succeeded to the business. Mr. Taylor.
with all his rapidity, made no mistake, and
his word and deed were quoted on 'Cunnge
as bej oi.d all controversy. He became Presi
dent of the City Bunk, one of our o'dest, richest,
and mosl influential Institutions, and is sup
posed to be worth $6,000,000 or SG.000.000. Such.
at tne age oi sixty, is one or the sons or New
lork. Mr. Taylor, unfortunately, does not
enjoy that reputation for. benevolence which
some men have won, and we ascribe this to the
influences exerted upon him in early life, llis
father was for manv vears in the employ of
John Jacob Astor, and the lad heard much of
the ofl.co conversation, lie knew that Astor
was looked on as a great mau simply on account
ot his weaitn, aid the general tnemc was bust-
nets and money, and the impression made on
the tad was simply to get ricn. Astor was nig
gardly and mean in his dealing with men gene
rally, and kept all charity at a distance. Hence

other influences prevailed, he might have be

Eccoil of Stolen Uiius In the Tulplt.
The perils of the practice somewhat common
in England, of delivering borrowed, bought, or
stolen sermons as origlual, is well illustrated.
eajs Dr. Doran, in an incident which occurred
in one oi me western viiiiures ui me muiruum.
The rector and the curate nan peeu absent
for some time; but they were efficiently repre
sented while they were away, 'iney returned
to resume doty on the same day. The curate
took the morning service, while the rector
officiated for a frleDd In a neighboring parish;
but the rector was present in the even-
ine to preach after the curate had read prayers,
Tbo sermon in the morning was so good
that the members ot the congregation con
gratulated themselves on the ellects which
change of air had ou the preacher's style
and powers generally. wnen - me rector
ascended the pulpit iu the evening they hoped
that a judicious holiday-time had had the same
efiect upon him, and they felt they would be
the betier able to Judge when they heard him
give out the same text which had formed the
subiect of tne curate's illustration in the fore
noon. Very soon, however, they found that it
was not only the same text, but the same
seimon: and then the faces of the con
crecation assumed a variety of expressions
that mtgui nave aenea iieir ecnuuze nimscu
to represent. There was but one placid
countenance in the whole church, ana that
was the preacher's, who went on quite un
conscious of the day's history and its conse
quences. There was but one face besides that
did not bear upon it an expression of fun, or
comic surprise, or a laughable peiplexity and
ouczlement. and ttiat was tne curate's, lie,
good man I looked tho more concerned and
uoaoucu bb ne inua io iook oiuerwise ine
more he strove to assume a guise of indifler
euce. the more intensely horrified ho grew.
In snort, the two wormy personages nau, un
known to each other, purchased a dozen or
so of lithographed manuscript sermons, and
they had the ill-luck, without communlc
tlon wun eacn omer, 10 seieci ine same
sermon wnerewtin to inaugurate their re
turn to the old pasture. The people, how'
ever, were goodnaturcd people, tho two
clergymen wre worthy men, and, beyond a
harmless loue or two, no norm came or inis niue
misadventure. It is more dangerous, perhaps.
t preach the printed thau the written sermons
of other people. I remember au illustration of
this in tho case ot a "popular preacher." On
leaving nis churcn, where be hud delivered a
very original di-course, he asked a clerical
friend who had been T'ie?cnl, what he thought
of the sermon. The friend spoke of it In terms
of the warouBt praise, aud then the subject was
crooned. Iu tne course oi ine louowiuu week.
