IFrom tliu Daily Fair.
Tlie ttiinoaritnce of tlie l?fv. Dr. Tl. ;T.-
Brook in ridge, ns lie atlvancti) to take li lit
post 11s temporary clininimn tif Hie Union
Nutionnl Convtntion at Haiti more, on the
?th of June (iiiht.), wn inoit impressive.
There stood one of the historical chnrart' rs
of the nt;e H'epotless divine, a self wierill
cinr ideHlist, nil unselfish patriot one,
across whose eventful path not a single
doubt as to his sincerity had tiver thrown a
shadow, and whose lofty moral integrity
had never been questioned either by the
enemies of his Church or tho advocates of
slavery. What he said before the Conven
tion has been wildly and profitably read.
But how he said it could not be painted or
printed. First of all was the evidence, not
necessary to be made clear to those who utt
in rapt attention under his utterances, of
the ttrrftct 11n111e11ariUM.it of his speech.
i The short-hand reporters took it down as
1 it fell from his lips, and then carried it to
Washington by the evening tram, wrote it
out. for Tie Li'tily Climnicle, in which it was
published next momim.'. without the slight
est revi.-ion by tho reverend author. And
1 assert that never has any production be en
more logically aud rhetorically exact. The
voice of Dr. Breckinridge is weak, although
he is not sixty live ; but his manner could
not be more graceful. Every word dropped
from his lips like a coin of gold -clear cut,
bright, and beautiful: and all his sentences
were begun w ith a higher than artistic skill.
A few instances will'sulliee lo prove this
last assertion. Here is one:
"Yon have to organize this party tho
roughly thnitiL'hout the United States. You
have to put it into form, in whatever form
your judgement may suggest, that it will
contribute all that wisdom, bucked by ener
gy and the most determined effort, can pro
duce, to gain the wctory w hich I have id- j
ready said was in ottr power. More than j
that, von have to lav down with clearness
and precision the principles upon which you j
will Curry on this great political contest. ;
ar.d prosecute the war which is underneath !
them, and the glory of the country which
lies before us, if we succeed, l'lainely, not j
in a double sense, but briefly, anil with the I
dignitv aud precision of a great people !

that all men everywhere may understand
precisely what we need; to run your furrow

tithcr in polities or in tho I'reshytcrian
Church. Fair ami honest in their dealings,
cliivatric and courteous in their intercourse
with others, it was reserved for the rebellion
to witness the first real dillcrcnee on public,
questions between themselves. The eldest
survivor of the name, the chairman of the
National Union Convention, just notie'd,
preserve the honor of its progenitors, while
that young man, upon whom so tunny hopes
were built when lie entered Congress in lfct.il,
And was chosen Vice President in 1 80,
driven, let us believe, mote by association
than by principle, forgets all the examples
and tvnelih'o-s of his great uncle, and sword
in li'tnd leads tlie embattled hosts of slavery.
It is not dtllicult to suppose that the heroic
clergyman feels the detection of his nephew
most keenly. For, in truth let it be spoken,
there was much to love iu John Cabell
Breckinridge. Never have I met a man
more adapted by nature, by education, and
by rearing, to be a favorite among men and
women.- He was the type of manly beauty
when I made his acquaintance fourteen
years ago. At that time, if he had a con
scientious feeling, it was haired of slavery,
and both of us, "Democrats" as we were,
frequently confessed that it w as a sinful ami.
an anti Democratic insl itiilion. mid that the
lay would come when it must be peaceably
or forcibly removed. How could it be
otherwise with him, with such a parentage,
ami such a schoolmaster its his uncle lio
belt f But the fascinating society of the
Southern magnates was too much for young
John. They saw that he had a bright fu
ture. And having taken the one wrong
step, he was too proud to retract.
I shall never forget my la-t interview
with John C. Breckinridge. It was on the
the evening of the lith of August, 1 SOI , be
ing the lat day of the memorable culled
session which was assembled on the 4th
day of July of that year by 1'residental pro
clamation. Widely as we had differed, our
personal relations were unchanged. He
knew how sincerely grieved 1 wa when, as
early as 1h.",sj. k. allowed Mr. Buchanan and
the extreme South to force him into the
.support of Leeomptou, and hnw reluctantly,
in the black and bitter years that succeeded,
I felt constrained to denounce him. In the
called session, he had led the opposition to
.Mr. Lincoln with vehement, unjust, and un
sparing abilitv. A in! now he w as going to
Kentuckv. "Hood live," he said: (loud bve."
"No," 1 said, "not 't bind bye" Breckinridge,

seemed to be surprised, us he said ; "What

to my post in December."' "No, my dear
sir, ou will follow your doctrine into the
Confederate iiiiny; yon will go there to
show that von are with the 1 neiniis of your

when he spoke the wolds I think he was
honest: "ll I go over the lines it will be

wholly against my will; but we shall meet,
if we iiw, iu the winter." "1 wish it could
be so, my friend," was my reply; "but still
I feel that your good bye will be a long fare
well." And this was" the hist i.f.IohnC.
liieeliinridoe. His until to support the

The prospects of the operations against
llie rebel capital have at last narrowed into
what seems the inevitable alternative ; that
Kii liinnud must be surrendered or evacua
ted. In either case, the lull of Kxhinoiid is
fated; but this, however, impressive and
significant to the world as a triumph, may
not, perhaps, comprise at once the one slid
more important result the capture or anni
hilation of the army under I.ce. This ii I ut.:
general will have to decide how long it w ill

enemy whose hand he tncouiileis on nearly

the hope of strategy; anil then find a way

tho outset, at'.d Jinked 110 consideration or
favor, The genius of common sense is evi
dent in every movement and disposition
which (irar.t has made ; and the w hole of
Ir.s fixed plan has been curried out with a
directness and triumph which arc extraordi
nary. The rebellion in Virginia is now practical
ly reduced to the vicinity of Kiehmond.
After running a fearful gauntlet the deci
mated army of Lee is now about to make
its last desperate series of diminishing strug
gles. How (irant has brought his foe to
this fate seems inexplicable to the rebels,
and, simple as his plan has been, is surpris
ing to his friends. In little mole than one
month he is before Richmond, having won
every step of his progress with hard lighting
or cons'li'imate skill. A period remarkably
brief, for its results, is crowded w ith victo-.
rious history such as the war has not known j
hitherto Success has been gained where
success has been the most dillieult. In his 1
vigorous canqm'srn nga'nst Yicksburg, Grant
tir.-H liecatne well acquainted with nis genius.
After that his future was a necessity. In
the much grander campaign in Virginia, his
genius is fully displayed, and, like ail genius,
it seems a revelation. He seems to have
done. everything that was wanting; to have
ratisiled the pride of the country by fairly
defeating the enemy in the most obstinate
contests besides over-reiiching him at till
all points nf strategy. Creat armies do not
aceompli-h rr-'.:lts such as these, but great
minds. Nothing can be suggested 3 better .

I sion to say, it in no particular resembles the
! plan ol MeClelhin. Contrary to the policy
J of the latter, General tiratt bared his suc
cess upon courage, as every great soldier
must. For six weeks McClellan sat down
j before Yorktown, after his army had been
j transported nearly the whole distance thi
ther. In less than the same time General
j Grant is, to all ell'ocl. before Richmond, hav
ing accomplished what Gen. McClellan re
1 garded as nearly impossible. He has fought
the enemy in )iie comparative!; direct line
1 of march, and driven him, broken end tlis-
spirited, to the wall. Instead of following
Ins niilic'iinist. (.runt litis torced loin: more
I than this, he has out-monieuvred him ami
astonished him. Now, all are ready to ad-
mil that the plan of placing an army in the :
rear of Richmond ns a co-operating force to
! an army moving direct on Richmond, and
a balancing and supporting lorce to an army
: moving dow n the valley, is the best of all
! plans. It was conceived at once, and under
! taken in the hundredth part of the time em
ployed for MeClellau's colossal preparations,
aim will have revenged, we think, in stupen
, dous victory over the enemy, all the monster
misfortunes of the old Peninsular campaign.
: The new march upon Richmond has swept
clean. Every branch of tlie rebel power in
Virginia seems to have been cut olf, and
1 ' . . 1 1 : .. 411 .1 11
only root and trunk remain. All the rail
roads by which Ihe enemy might move north
or south have been seized or broken, and in
this feature of the campaign, and especially
in the disposition of his cavalry, Cr.int has
shown the best fore-ioht and the readiest
' inspiration. We not rehearse how nil along
the march he destroyed tlie roads, in both
. his front and rear, opening up new bases of
supply, and never leaving to the enemy a
j point for attack or speculation. His plan
1 grasped at once Lee's means of supply and
: leiutorcemenls, and yet safely provided for
I the worst results while he cut his own army
, oil' from the ordinary means of cnnitnunica
j lion w ith Washington. With such a plan
' n:i.l such a leader failure in the main object
j seems an impossibility. I'liila. I'm.

Mow Yorn SriiAwciittitiES. As soott hi
votir strawberries are done bearing, mow
them off with a common grass scythe, and.
renr.ive the vines to tlie manure heap. This
operation has toi excePeni eilbct in
strengthening the roots niul increasing the
vigor of tlie runners and new plants. Its
i effect, too, is seen in a few weeks upon the
! olu vines, in causing a healthy growth,
enabling them better to stand the w inter, anil
I yielding a better crop of fruit the ensuing
i year. In gardens the operations is frequently
i neglected, especially by farmers, who per-
sist in giving but little attention to this
! small but very important portion of their
farm?. Tito feina'.es of a family, w ho uni
versally delight in a strawberry bed, should
1 see to its proper management, m well as re
newing w hen iiecersary, and there will bo
: no tlitlictilly in securing satisfactory crops.
' We may as well repeat here, that no grass
j should be allowed in your strawberry patch
is; and it is better to ielnove it before inow -1
ing. In field culture we know this is next
' to impossible, though it can be avoided to a
considerable extent by using other than
i barnyard manure for the crop. German

rnusr.nviNO. Vi'uou iiy Salt. J. B. Si
mon?, of Brush Valley, Indinnun, thus
writes to the S-iovtific American: I liavo
used common salt for the preservation of
mill-shafts or water-w heel shafts, and it has
had tt good elTect in staying the decayed
timber. Take a t',-inch"auger, bore holes
into the sticks of timber t.ad till up with
sidt, and then plug up the holes tight. Iu
a lar"e stick of timber, like a water-wheel
shaft, bore a hole through the centre, like a
pump, and fill up with' salt end plug up,
and there is no telling hnw long this may
last, as it has been tried with us, and has
answered very well. N o Wan ould believe
what elfert it v. ill have till he tries it. I
have used it in a mill-shaft that was decay
ing, and it has certainly helped it wonderfully-
I have never seen a .-alt ban el but
what was sound, and will stand more wet
weather than any other barrel cr btavo uf
its kitiu.
j Tlir. Ct i.uat WoitM.-The wotm which
penetrates the stem of '.he currant bush, may
be much more destructive elsewhere than it
is win rever our observation extends; but
we can say with entire truth that we never
1 yet saw any real damage done by this worm,
and we do "nt.'t be'icvc that, as a rule, any is
j done by it. We cultivate several varieties
i of the currant, and upon examination near
ly every stem is perforated by this insect;
'vet we" have never failed in obtaining a
: fair crop of fruit, or in having flourishing
iis!;cs--:"o tlour'shhig, indeed, that iu ad
dition to what the insect may be tho cause
of weakeniiK and breaking oil", we havo
taken fnnii liiein hundreds of cuttings for
propagating every year, atid then have to
thin out the superfluous wood.
Where is the use, then, of bothering tho
public w ith remedies for the destruction of
this insect "remedies," too, we venture to
av that will have no more effect upon it
career than if ti pe:ii:y trumpet v as played
bcfiTc each stool, in many respects "tho
world is governed too much."
