This quantity so far exceods the allowance usually recommonded in the United States that various letters of inquiry have been re- ceived as a rosult. Renewed investigations, however, confirm tho accuracy of tho state- mont in question. The reasons for this largs quantity have been hinted at before— the roots suffer less from frost and nsects, May frost here may safely be reckoned with, When the eets are close togethor oniy the outer ones are damaged, and these compressing against the inside plants form an effectual protection. This is important, since a resowing is lookad upon as prejudicial to the complete success of the crop. Again, in proportion as the roots are thickly planted insects are less likely to devour or ruin the whole crop. Ex- parience has also shown that beets grow more evenly with a heavy sowing. It is further probable that the dearness of the land makes 1t highly important to utilize all available spa *Iv must be borne in mind, though, that this prescription 1s the one that has heen found oest for German _climatic conditions. In localities where no May frosts occur, and where unintorrupted warm weather miy bo counted upon to promote steady vegetation, twenwy pounds or even less will probably be found suflicient. The one way of exactlv dotermining this will be by actual trial.

Secretary Hodgin sent out notices of the proposed ex- hibit to the local brauches of the association through the staie yesterday and expects to hear from every local association early in the week. The train will consist of a baggage car, threo exhivitcars and oue sleeper. Each county taking port in the exhibit will be re- quired 10 $200 into the train fund not later than August 25, with the exception of Lancaster and Douglas counties, which are assessed £350 and $500, respectively, This will entitle each county to one dele- gate who can accompany this train, and have his railroad fare, sleépivg car and hotel xpenses all paia while ou this trip, The duties of the deiegate will be to advertise his own county with such advertising matter may be prepared for him by bis county, and cach county taking part in the exhibi- tion train is required to furnish not less than 000 pieces of descripuve adveriising mat- ter. Counties desizing to send an extra dele- gate along with the train can do so by pay- ing o extra $150. As the capacity of the train is limited no move than thirty counties can be representod and theso will bo accopled 1n the order of their application, This makes it necessary for counties that desire to take part in the oxhivit 10 act promptly as the entive space will probably ve taken up in ten days. The Douglas county exhibit will probably be under the direction of the Omaha Board of I'rade. Secrotary Hodgin has requested them to take charge of the matter and it is probable that the request will receive favor- able consideration at the next meeting of the board of directo Ixhibits must reach Omaba not later than two days after the close of the stato fair. 1t is advisable for counties not taking part in the state fair to send their exnibits to Omaha not later than September 9. The exhibits shipped to Omaua either direct from the county or from the state fair, must be mariked “R, I, Hodgin, Omaha, Nebraska, care Johnson Bros.” 'The Burlgton, Efkhorn, and Union Pacific roads have all granted freo trausportation on all exibits sent marked as above described, and any county desiring to sond a party to Omaha to belp arrange their oxhibit in the cars, will receive free trans- portation to Omaha and return.

How the Difterent City Exccutivos Havo Beon Quart After long years of waiting tho timo s arrived when tho mayorof the city of Omanha can trausuct the puolic business in a build- ing owned by this great city. This has not always been the case, and when Mayor Bemis sits in his mahogany fur- nishiod room, resting in a oft and Hufty up- holsterod chair, he can realize that ho is the first of the twonty mayors of Omaha who has been so forturate. 1t is true that since 1337, the date on which Mayor Lowe took up the rems of govern- ment, tho city has always provided quarters for its oxocutives, bui thoy have been any- thing but palatial apartments, Mayor Lowe, whuo signed $150,000 of Omaha serip, was the first mayor, ana auring bis term of oftico ho occupied 'u little one- story brick oftice, that for mauy years stood at tho cornor of Twelfth ana Harnoy streots. There, and 1n that room, the sessions of the city council were hold. A. J. Poppleton, who succeeded Mayor Lowe, kept the mayor's office in his inw office. As Mr. Popploton in those days did not have an abundance of worldly oods, consequently he kept tho books and papers of the mayor's oftice in a dingy back room on Parnam, near Twelfth street. Mayor D. D. Beiden, who attached his official autograph to the doeds of the city granting lands and lots to the Union Pacific Railroad company, had an office in n two- story framo building, situsted where Henry Puiidv's store on Farnam stroot now stands. Mayor Briggs was at homo over a little grocory store, which was in a two-story building on the north side of Farnam, just eust of Thirtes h street. Mayor Armstrong, Mayor Kennedy and Mayor Gilmore each, in turn, took up’ their quarters in the Pronoer olocit, which is now oceupied by Goodman’s drug store. Mayor Lorin Miller got into ofice in_ time to oceupy rooms in the old frame court house that styod at Sixteenth and [arnam, on the sito now occupied by tho Paxton block. Mayor C. H. Brown did not go into the court houso, but moved tho ofico to the scc- oud floor of tne frame building which stood at the corner of Fourtccath and Douglas streots, whero tho Novraska Clothing com- pany block now stands, Mavor Roborts, when elected, moved into the back room, on tho third floor of the old People's theater building. His successor, Mayor Fzra Miliavd, during s torm of oflice oceupied the same room, but whon 5. Caldwell was clected ho moved the office uto his 0wn building, a counte of doors cast. Mayor J. H. Millard put tho offico on wheels and moved 1t over to the Hellman block, which in those days was a throo-story structuro, Mayor Chiampion Chase found a homo for tiic oflice in the old Pattes block, a framo builging which stood at tho corner of Sixteenth and Parnam, where the Commercial National bank is now standing. Tuis same room was occupied by Mayor Loubeu Wilber, who sur- rendered the control of the ety to Mayor James . Boyd. Mr. Boyd held the oft in his own building on Harnoy streev. Whon Mayor Broatch went iuto ofice he held forth at two places. Partof the city business he transacted in his store on Har- ney street and tho balunce in the Exposition building av rourteenth and Daven- 8. Mayor Cushing concluded that the office entitled the holder to at least reasonablo quarters aud moved 1uto the New York Lifo building, Thicre he staid until succeeded by Mayor Bomis, who occupied the same rooms until yesterday, when he moved 1nto the new city hall. —— CONNUBIALITIE!

XL of the ofiicial record ot the rebellion, just published fn preliminars form, is devoted to correspondence, orders and returns relating to operations in south- eastorn Virginia_ana North Carolina, and covers the period from June 13 to July 4, 1864, General Butlor has recontly publishod a book @iving his views about the war, and about many men who were prominent in the struggle. Thero aro fow of whom ho has much to say that 18 good, and it is therafore fnteresting to read, in this intest volume of tho war records, the opinions of General ant and General Hallock concerning Gen- erai Butlor, as given in the following lotters: What They Thought of Butier, HeapQuARTERS, ARMiss oF tug UNiten Stares, Ciry Point, Va, July 1, 18 Major-General H, W. Halleck, Chief of Statl of the Army: General—Mr. Dana, assistant sccretary of war, has just returned. Ho in- forms mo that b catled attention 1o the ne- sity of sending General Butler to_another field of duty. Whilst L have no dificulty with General Butler, finding bim always cloar in bis coneoption of orders and prompy 10 ubey, yet thero is n want of knowlodge how 10 execute and particularly a prejudice against him as a commander, that operatos against his usefulness. 1 have feared that it might become nocessary to sopsrate him aud Goneral (Balay) Smith. The latter is roally one of the most ¢flicient officors in sor- vice, readiest in oxpeainnts and most skillful in the management of troops in action. I would dislike removing him from his presont command unless it was to increase it, but, as 1say, way have it to do yet 1f General But- ler romains, As an administrative ofiicer Goneral Butlor has no superior. In taking chargo of a department whero there are 1o great battles to bo fought, but a dissatisfied element to control, no one could manage it better than he. 1f a cowmand could be cut out such as Mr. Dana proposed, namely, Ketucky, Illmois and Indiana, or'if tho dopartments of the Missouri, kansas and the states of Iilinois and Indiana could be merged together and General Butler put over it, I believe the g00d of the service would be subserved. ¥ regret the necessity of asking for a change n commanders hero, but General Butler, not bolug a soldier by education or exporience, is in the hands of his subordinates m the execution of all operations military. 1 would feel strengthened with smith, Franklin or J. J Reynolds com- manding thd right wing of thiiarmy. At the saimo time, as I have here stated, Gen- oral Butlor has always been prompt in his obedience to his orders from me ana clear in his undorstanding of them. I would not, therefore, bo willing to recommond his re- tiremont. 1 send this by mail for considera tion, but will telegraph if I think 1t abso- lutelv necessary to muke achange. Iam, genoral, very respectfully, your obedient servant, U. 5. Grant, Licutenaut Geueral. HEADQUARTERS OF TIE ARMY, WASHING 10N, D, C., July 3, 1864, —Licutenant General U. S, Grant, City Point, Va.: General —Your noto of the ist instant in relation to General Butior is just receivod. 1 will, as you pro- poso, pwait further advices from you before I submit tho matter ofiieinlly to the secre- tary of war and tho prosident. It was fore- soen from the first that you would eventu- ally find it nccessary to rehieve Geueral B. on account of his total unfitness to command inthe tield and his eeneraliy quarrelsomo character. What shall bo doue with him has, therefore, already been, as Lam informod, a wattor of consultation. Tosend him to Kon- tucky would probably causo an insurrection in thav state and an immediate call for large reinforcements, Morcover, ho swould prot ably greatly embarrass Storman, if he did not attempt to supersede him, by using against him all his talent at political in- trigue and his facilities for newspuperabuse, 1t you send him to Missouri nearly the same thing will oceur thore. Although it might 1ot bo objoctionable 1o Liuve u freo fight be- twoen him aud Rosocrans the goversment would be seriously embarrassed by the loenl dificuities, and calls for reinforccments lkely to follow. Inveterate as s Rosecrans’] habit of continually _ call- in, for, morc troops, Butler differs only fn demanding instead of calling. As things now stand in the west, I think we can keep tho peace, but if Butier be thrown in s a aisturbing eloment I anticipate very serlous results, Why not leave Goneral Butler in tho local_command of his denart- ment, including North Carolina, Norfoil, Fort Monroe, Yorktown, ete., snd make o new army corps of the part of tho Eighteenth = under Smitn? This would leave B. under your immediate control. and at tho same time would rclieve you of his presonco in the flela. Morcover, it would save the necessity of organizing a uew dupartment. If he must bo relieved entirely I think 1t would bo best to make a new de- partment for bim in New England. I mako these romarks merely s suggostions. What- over vou may finally dotecmine on I will try 1o huve dove.
