were all furnished with first rate locks, they were
also provided with matches, attached by lanyards,
in case the lock should miss fire. A lieutenant
then passed through the ship, directing the marines
aud boarders, who were furnished with pixies, cut
lasses, and pistols, how to proceed il it should be
necessary to board Che enemy. He was followed
by the captain, who eXhorted the men TO fidelity
and courage, urging upon their consideration, the
well known motto Of the brave Nelson " England
expects every man to do his duty" In addition to
all these preparations on deck, some men were sta
toned in the tops with snail arms, whose duty il
was to attend to trimming the sails and to use their
muskets, provided we came to close action. There

passed to the boys; we received them there, and

FARMING IN MAssACHUsETTs.

The farm of Cheever Newhall, Esq, in Dorch-
ester, six miles from Boston, furnishes one of the
best examples of productive husbandry we have
any where met with. 1t consists of sixty acres,
few Of which are still IN wood Several acres are
taken up by the grounds about the house, in gard.
en- shrubbery &C., and there eight or ten acres
! in orchardng; yet the farm supports twenty five
COWS, one bull, four oxen, and three horses. All
this stock is supported entirely from the farm, with
the exception Of few oats occasionally for the
horses. The soil was originally very strong, and
some of it wet.
.Soiiing. Nj. Newhall keeps his stock altogeth-
er on the soiIing system. They are fed mostly in
the barn, at all Seasons Of the year. The are
turned out for few hours in each day, when the
weather will admit of it, and are driven for exer-
else TO small shaded enclosure, about quarter of
a mile from the barn. They perfectly healthy
and Mr.. N. thinks give quite as much, if not more
milk, in the course of the year, they would do if
grazed in summer in the ordinary way. The cows
average 400 gallons per year, and the milk is sold
at the farm, at average of about fourteen cents
per gallon.
The principal articles for feeding, in the summer
season, are rye and Indian corn, cut green The
former is in the fall and is the first thing that
is fit to cut in the spring. 1t may be commenced
on soon as it is high enough to NOV, and it will
continue to grow till the usual time that rye mat
ures, by which time, the corn, which is most relied
on is fit for use. Corn is the most productive of
season, Mr.. N. kept twenty-three cows for eight
weeks, wholly from two acres and half of corn.
He is confident that one acre of rich land is more
than sufficient to keep a COW the year round that
is, II will afford sufficient green food in summer,
and leave enough to be dried to keep the COW the
winter through.
In 1913, Mr.. Newhall measured square rod be-
ing part Of lot of corn sown for fall and winter
use and carefully weighed the produce, which he
found to be at the rate Of more than thirywo tons
per acre. 1t was then carefully dried when it was
found to weigh 100 pounds to the rod, or nearly 10
tons to the acre. He prefers planting in the drill
mode three feet apart and uses two to three BUSH
els OF seed (of the Southern corn) per acre. Large
quantities of carrots, potatoes, and beets are grown
for winter feeding, The white carrot is the kind
most cultivated; it is easier raised than other sorts
and generally yields BETTER giving from 500 to 1000
bushels per acre. Each COW is fed during winter
with from peck to half bushel of roots per day,
with little wheat bran in addition to their dry od-

An Extraordinary Document The Foreign Poor
in our AIMS Houses, and the Foreign Criminals in
our Penitentimtes. We hasten to lay before our
readers, highly interesting document from Com
mittec, in the Board OF Aldermen, upon the subject
Of bonding alien passengers in New York. From
the document, it appears that the bonds of nine
firms in this city exhibit the enormous liabilities of
Sl6,000000 that of the Coz children supported hv
the city at the Farm Schools, 457 are the children
(many, if not most of them, Legitimate of foreign
parents that of the latest born infants at nurse at
the ctys expense, 30 are foreign, and only A
mercan and that of the whole number of chill.
dren 626 have foreign parentage, and 1875 Amer.
can, exhibiting the average of more than three for
eigners 10 one native, and alarming increase of
the ratio of foreigners in the more recent births'
The whole number Of inmates in our Pententa-
ry is l4l9, showing an increase of 400 since July
last; Of these, 1888 are Americans, and 1893 for
eigners. The number of prisoners and paupers, to
support whom we all pay taxes, is 43l4, showing an
increase, since July last, of nearly 1000.
In view Of these alarming facts, and remember
ing that over 10000 immigrants were committed
and bonded here the last year, the Committee make
some forcible appeals to the country which cannot
be without their effect. The enormous taxation 10
which we are subject in order to support foreign
paupers and criminals is great and growing evil,
which presses heavily upon industry, as well as up
on the character, morals and politics of the coun-
try.-.N Y Express.
