JUDGE BUEL'S FARM.

Judge Buel, Esq. who resides near Al
bany, has farm which'is the admi ration
Of visiters. One, who had the pleasure
ofwalking over it writes as follows to the
editor of the New York Farmer -
Judge Buel is emphaticaily, and in the
strictcst sense Of the phrase, a book far
mer. He was bred printer, and be-
lieve followed that business, without hav-
ing any practical acquaintance with far
ming, until about ten years ago he pur-
chased the place where he now resi- de 8 !;
but which was piece Of waste ground,
considered Of very lite value, being Of
very Indifferent soil, run over with shrub
pines and interspersed with Marshes
This piece Of ground Notwithstanding its
slocation about two miles from the city,
could never, at any time in its natural
state, have been worth more than 90 or
80 dollars per acre, would now be an OBJ
iect of speculation at two hundred dol
lars. This same spot that l have looked
at with regret at its dreary appearance, las
in former years have ridden past it, is
now, by the book-learnt skill" of its
owner, changed to scene which'a mon
arch might envy, and philosopher of the
most refined taste might long contem-
plate with pleasing admiration. In all
his plans of operation, and choice IN Sc
lecting subjects for cultivation, his only
instructors have been his own reflections
aided by his well selected library.
Here the common agriculturalist can see
piece Of ground, which, ten years since,
would scarcely have been taken as gh,
advanced from its cost, in less than ten
years, more than six hundred per cent. !;
and in this productive season, when far
mers are cutting and clearing the ground
of their withered and unripe corn, he can
see a crop Of from eighty TO nine
ty bushels to the acre, and every other
production ofa well regulated farm yield
ing in proportion. And not only the ag-
ticulturalist-the admirers Of the beau
ties of nature may here view and con-
template the productions Of every quar-
ter oflhe globe the botanist, the horli-
culturist and the florist may here increase
their catalogues of subjects from the spec
linens before them while the tryo in each
branch may improve his knowledge by
the scientific and instructive remarks and
explanations Of Mr.. Wilson, the partner
and overseeor Of the nursery and gard
ems.

Department Of State, .Norem5er 8, 1884.
BY the fourth article of the Con, enton
concluded with Spain on the 18th of Feb
ruary last, copy Of which published
with the Presidents Proclamation .t the
LIST instant, it is stipulated that tho Gov
ernment Of the United States will deliv-
er to the Spanish Minister at Washing
ton, in six months after the exchange of
the ratfica'ions, note or list OF the
claims Of American citizens against the
Government Of Spain, specifying their a
mounts respectively. The raiinnG6::::"ns
having exchanged at Madrid, on the 18th
of August last, the term within which this
list is to be furnished to the Minister will
expire on the l4th day of February next
1t is therefore requested that all persons
having claims against the Spanish Gov
crnment, which have originated since the
22d OF February 1919, and before the
time OF signing tho Convention, ane
which are supposed to be Included in the
terms of the said treaty, will send to this
Department without delay, note thereof,
specifying the nature and amount of each

-Four Of the Senators whose terms ex-
pre- N Ma,oi, are Tories, namely-Brown
OF North Carolina, White OF Tennessee,
King OF Alabama, and Robinson of Hi
nois. Two Tories have resigned-Wil-
kns Of Pennsy and Forsyth of
Georgia. The State Of North Carolna
and Illinois have been regenerated the
present year, and Of course will elect
Wing Senators in the place Of Messrs.
Brown and Robinson.
The political character Of the Senate
will be unchanged during the next ses-
sion-and the Senate of the 24th Con-
gress, unless some expected changes
should occur, will contain % Wing and
% Tories. This majority is sufficient
as check upon executive usurpation
and it may turn out much stronger than
we expect, as it did last winter.

PREPARING SEED WHEAT.

There are various expedients for clean
ing seed grain, (wheat or rye.) For 90
years have used brine and lime with
the utmost satisfaction-I take 9 wash
tubs, fill "a full Of water, in which i dis
solve as much salt as it will take cold, in
this brine put one bushel of seed grain,
stir and skim it, by which means all the
chess, must, and imberfect grains are
skinned off, Then put two sticks u
cross the empty tub-set on them a corn
basket, in which 1 pour the grain and
brine. The brine passes into the empty
tub, while the grain remains in the bas-
ket-which should then be emptied upon
dry floor, and the operation repeated
until a sufficient quantity is washed :;
then let II be raked about 9 inches thick
and 2 quarts of Stacked lime to the BUSH
el siaed over it. In this state let il re-
main for IL hours, frequently stirring il
with rake 10 bring the lime in contact
with every grain-aller which it should
be sown.
As 4 understand il, the brine and lime
destroy all the smut and eggs of the in
sects, and the specific gravity of the wa
ter beng increased by the salt will float
oil the smut, chess and damaged grains.
IL rye or cookie be mixed with the seed
II may be screened before sown, or these,
cut out before harves, in the field. !

Hail ye sighing sons Of sorrow,
Wow with me the Auiunnal gloom,
Learn from thence your fate tomorrow,
Dead perhaps-laid in the tomb I:
View all nature, fading, dying,
Silent all things seem 10 mourn;
Life from vegetation flying
Brings 10 mind the mouldering urn.
on the Autumn tempest rising,
Makes the lofty forest nod;
Scenes Of nature how surprising,
Read in nature, natures God
See our sovereign Lord and Maker,
Rules eternal in the skies,
While we MORALS yield TO nature,
Bloom awhe-then fcdc and die.
Nations die by dread Bellona,
Through enraged tyrannic Kings,
Jus, us plants in pale Pamona.
Fall to rise in future spring
Mournful scenes when vegetation
Dies by frost, or worms destroyed,
Douby mournful when a nation
Falls by neighboripg nations sword.
Death war my mind depresses,
Autumn shows me my decay,
Calls to mind my past distress,
Warns me Of my dying dayi
Autumn gives lie melancholy,
Strikes dejectlvn through my soul.
While mourn my former folly,
WIVES Of sorrow Ger ne roll.
So hear the air resounding,
With expiring insects cries (;
Oh their means TO me are wounding,
Emblem Of my own desire.
Hollow minds about me roaring,
Noisy waters round me rise;
While sit my fate deplorng,
Tears fast streaming from my eye.
What to me are Autumns treasures,
Since know an earthly God;
I've lost all youthful pleasures.
Time must youth and health destroy.
Pleasures once fondy courted,
Shared each bliss that youth could choose
But to see how then Isported,
Now embitter all my woes.
Age and sorrow since have blasted
Everyyou,hful pleasing dream.
Quivering, age wi,hyou,h contrasted,
Oh how short its glories seem.
As the annual frost are cropping,
Leaves and tcndrils from the trees
Sony friends are yearly dropping
Through old age or dire disease.
Former friends how of I've sought them,
Just to cheer my dropping mind.
But they are gone like leaves Of Autumn
Driven before the stormy wind.
When a few more years are wasted,
When few more springs are oe'r.
When a few more griefs I've tasted,
/ shall fall to rise no more.
Fast my sun ofiie's declining,
Soon will set in endless night,
But my hopes pure and refining,
Rest in future life and light.
Cease this fearing, trembling, sighlng,
Death will break the sullen gloom,
Soon my spirit, fu,tering, flying,
Must bo borne beyond the tomb.
