From the Ne,c Genesee Farmer

To PREVENT SMUT FROM WHEAT
MeSSrs EdlorS:-As many farmers are
slow 20 believe in tho efficiency Of brine and
lime in preventing smut in wheat, | am
induced to give additional testimony in its
confirmation.
AS our winter wheat Is rarely smutty to
any extent, we have never prepared that
by brining and lining. But our Spring
whea. having formcIy been more or less
smutty, we now prepare our seed in the
following manner: After putting our seed
into water, to separate the light kernels
and oats, if there should be any amongst
it, we put it into n tIb, aud pour strong
brine, about blood warm, upon it till it is
completely covered. After it has stepped
three or four hours, we take it out in bas-
kets, in which wo let it stand until it is
sufficiently drained; then we spread it on a
barn floor, and rake in fresh Stacked lime
until the wheat becomes dry, when it is fit
for sowing.
The past seasons, we have prepared our
seed wheat in this way, and not a kernel Of
smut has been found in the crops raised
from it; while our neighbors who neglect
this preparation, are generally troubled
with smut.
We sow our spring who / about the
first Of May. CAssANDER.

TuE AGEDY AT 81. LOUIS

The circumstances OF this horrible affair
as detailed By Ennis, are as Gollows:-
About 10 O'clock on Saturday night, En-
mis- went from the barber shop 10 the board
ing house., kept by Leath, free yellow
woman. and Peter Charleville, free man,
on Third, between Market and Walnut
streets. Shortly after he had gone to bed
negro slave named Madison, came to the
d,or. knocked, aud was admitted. Soon
after being admitted, Madison exclaimed,
cd d-n the luck" and on inquiry
why, he stated, g | have done more muir
der 10 night than ever did before and
have not been paid for it;" and after re-
marking that there would be an alarm Of
fire shortly, he stated in substance, that he
and three yellow men, VIZ: james Seward
alias Sewe!, " arrick and Brown, had
me on that night to Mr.. Pettus' count
ing room, that the door was unlocked; Ma
olson entered alone, Mr.. Baker was sitting
down with his boots off, reading a news
paper, Madison walked up and presented
a bank bill 10 him, and asked him if it was
good, and as Baker turned 10 look at the
bill he struck him over the head with u
short bar Of iron which he had concealed
under his arm the others then came in,
and they repeated the blows until he was
quite dead, his skull and one side of the
head completely mashed. after searching
the Dody for the keys, they rolled II up IN
the bed clothes and placed it in the bed.
They secured the door and went to work
on the vault to open it, Whilst at this
AZ w .Lo /
knocked, and called to Jesse, ( Mr. Baker,
10 let him in. Some dispute ensuad be-
tween Brown and Madison, which should
kill Weaver; and it was insisted that Ma
Olson should, as he had killed Baker, but
he refused, saying that he had done his
share and would do no more. Brown opened
the door and placed himself behind it, and
as Weaver passed into the room, struck him
over the head with the bar Of iron; on the
second blow he fell and attempting TO rise
Brown thrust sharp iron bar through his
head. Ennis in his statement, does not
confirm the report Of the firing Of pistols,
but saws, that having heard tina: Weaver
was shot he asked Madison about it and
he told him, that no pistols had been fired
and that they had no weapons but the bar
Of iron mentioned. From tho statement
it would seem that all Of them had beaten
Weaver.
After some further effort at the vault,
finding they coul not get into it Madison
left; Warrck Sewell and Brown remained
"a short time, then fred the house in five
different places, came out, locked the door
and went up the alley north of the house,
and threw the key away. Brown took with
him gold watch ad u blue cloak, which
he said he had thrown away for fear Of
detection.

FREE TRADE-The theory of free trade Is one Of
extreme paasibiliy md is apparently Of the most
splendid systems of social order and government 1t is
pedicated u3n the basis that the world have one COM
mon mutual nte:et, AM that III, practice of UNIVERSAL
henevoence, would suparcede the necessity of all en-
actmen.s regulating trade and Commerce 1t contem
plates state OF things, such ascribcd 10 the mil
enium when the lion and he lamb shall lie dow to-
gether-when human nature shall have changed and
when equal moral jus tice shall become the rule Of &C
ton. Were the system of free trade adopted uniyer-
sally by common consent, it would no d0ubt be pro-
ductye of all those beneficial results which its alyo
Gates anticipate The various distribution of soil and
climate, which nature has spread over the face OF the
earth, wouldt hen be made conducive 10 the mutual
benefit OF every nation. The fruits of the tropics the
productions OF The temperate zones and the rs of the
north might Then be exchanged with fair equivalent
and the common interests ofall advanced.
The theory of free trade con;empates an imaginary
state o. things certainly not such condition of so.i
ETY. ever has existed, as will be likely to exist for
many ages 10 come. 1t is system which every com,
mercia nation on earth repudiates in practice And
