n DOCTRINE WORTH PoNDERING UPoN.-
Nike Walsh in speaking ofthe freedom Of
public lands, says: "My doctrine is this,
that no person but an actual settler has a
right to any land, and even then 10 only an
equal share with their fellows. The pub
lie lands to be laid out for the present into
farms Of 100 acres each, and made free
10 all citizens who may feel disposed to
settle on them, withou, the right to either
sell or bequealh, but the title Of the set
tier and his heirs 10 remain upon, and cul.
tivate them. That when all the lands ol
any state shall become so occupied, and il,
population shall have increased 10 such an
extent that the holding of 100 acres by one
person or family excludes handles pc rson.
from their just and natural rights, then q
new division to be made so proportional
TO The increase Of population that all may
enjoy their equal share, and this to be re-
pea;ed at stated periods, at least every
twenty -one years. 160 acres however &c
comprise q farm 10 all territories until theil
admission into the federal uni IN a. states
As settlers will be aware Of the conditions
at the outset they will have no cause, anG
canno. object to these subsequent divisions
And this freeing Of the public lands as spec
Oily as possible intend onlysas a prepara
tory step TO the freeing o. those which have
been usurped by individuals"

POISONING CHILDREN.-The giving of
paregoric or Godfrey's Cordial to children
for the purpose of making them sleep, is a
practice that should be stamped with the
condemnation of every we'll wlsher OF the
human family. We view it as but little
short Of murder, for the children to whom
it is given must sooner or later sink under
It's effect. 1t will undermine the best con-
sltution that nature has formed. 1t is the
great cause of fine nervous irritability that
torrents so many people when they arrive
at years Of maturity, and finally brings
them 10 premature grave. Itcreates in
children thirst for strong drink, which
-gSYAswih their growth and strengthens
with their strength, until they become beg
gars and outcasts, beca9 Sc .of their drum
ken habits. We were.-iofd short time

SALT FOR PoTATo FIELDs.-Salt is q
great preservative in the vegetable as well
as in. the animal kingdom. TIE soil need:
it. When on Cape Cod last Fall we no
ticed that no potatoes there were affected
with the rot. We suspected the reason
might be BECAUSE they were MANFRED
with sea weed, containing salt. A friend
of ours in this town sowed his garden with
salt last year, and his potatoes, which hae
not been good in i, for years were fair
and all free from rot. Let farmers ap
ply salt to their potato ds,-sown broad,
cast, or applied to the hills-it can do nc
harm, we hope it may be found to do good
