WASHINGTON, April Z, Is4s
Wholesale Appointment Of Cierks- Dissatisfac-
tion--Vh'gs in the Enjoyment Of Spoiis-I rou-
bic IN the Treasury Depa, tmsnt, &c.
Within the past week there have been about
fifty persons appointed to clerkships, principally
in the bureaus belonging to the Treasury De-
psrtment. There were hundred and fifty ap-
plicants for every vacant desk. A singular thirst
and appetite for public Office exists, which the
administration cannot satisfy. Congress, in
view of this should pass the ten regiment bill,
so that those who cannot obtain situations
to use the pen may WELD the sword But the
recent appointments have not been generally salts
factory, Among the stsuneh, progressive, con-
tnentai democrats. there is a sprinkI Of wings
One, Dung The campaign OF 1874, (Wm Laird
of Georgetown,) Is especially objectionable to
t1em Being an animated debaier or stump
speaker, he trlpped II 10 M ,rylaud, and there
electioneered for Gay and Frelinqhuyse sen. and,
as matter OF course, opposed Mr.. Polk, who, al
that time, was not known hardly entity,
and who was not suspected of having sufficient
strength to overturn the fabric of the constltu-
ton, involve the country in a war, and make
conquest, If he thought proper TO do so, of the
entire OF Mexico. II is said that Mr.. Laird oh
tanned his appointment through the influence OF
Judge Dunlop, a democrat, who operated on
Cave Johnson, democrat who used his lDffu.
ence with Peter Hagner. whig, the Third
Auditor, without whom, Mr.. Johnson thinks,
the government could not go on.
Mr. johnson and Mr. Hagner are warm per-
sonal friends; and why should the democracy
object TO a wing auditor with fat salary, being
retained, when poor whig messenger is pro-
scribed for mis- political opinions ITO the vic
tors belong the spolls," ID a very good motto ;
but 1t will not do when the influence of foreign
minister is exercised successfully with the Sc
cretary OF the Treasury, Tor the appointment of a
whlg relative to a good place. We know of
other instances In which wings have been ap-
pointed TO the exclusion of democrats. But if
an effort Is being made to reconcile both parties
In the bestowment of patronage, we should not
complain, as the motto at Washington, as at
Paris, is now, "berty, equality, and fraternity"
One OF the government Treasury officials,
holding high station, once on time, borrowed
hve dollars from clerk. The CLERK was SUISSE
quently dismissed because he was a whig and
the official refused to pay him. A suit before
mag strate was the consequence, and judgment
was rendered against him.
Two clerks OF the Treasury Department had a
street fight one day this week. The younger,
Tor real or imaginary insult, seized the older,
old enough 10 be his father, and tore his shirt
The old man went right up 10 the secretary to
complain with what success have not heard

CIT WORMS,


"To the remark that ''euf porms" may be
destroyed by continued tillage and an open
soil, fbee to say that the cut worm would net
be found in corn were it not planted in sward
or sod land. They are the progeny oil spe-
cies of beetle or other insect which could nev-
er propagate without the benefit Of dung,
which is found in grass fields that have been
fed bv horses or cattle, and in this they un-
close their egg or eggs, and sink them given
distance below the surface; hence an au-
t,,.nnal or winter plowing of such lands, des-
troys them by exposure to the rains and frosts
of that inclement season-a doctrine which
at last has met with the concurrence of every
practical man among u.s."
The beetle which produces this destruc-
tive insect, deposits its eggs in compost heaps
and animal excrement wherever it is found,
and when these substances are conveyed TO
the field of the farmer, and spread broadcast,
or deposited in the hills,' or furrows, no mat
ter whether on sward land or those which
have been under cultivation for series of
years, the progeny is developed as effectually
and surely, as when the eggs are deposited
in excrement dropped in the fields. The
worm which proves so destructive to the cab
bage, is identic with the brown 'cut or corn
worm,' and to suppose its ravages are confin-
ed exclusively to crops on sward or sod lands,'
is to controvert the whole tenor of practical
experience. Various causes contribute, nc
doubt, to render its attacks more frequent and
fatal on such soils, but it is nevertheless fact
well understood by most practical men,
presume, that corn an old lands, is frequently
injured by these insidious and troublesome
depredators, to on alarming extent.

We are sorry to record the fact, that the
farmers of Maine do not raise so many roots
of late as they used to-say ten years ago.
We will excuse them as it regards the poia-
to, because they are not able TO counteract
the insidious ret that cuts of that particular
CROP But they ought to pay more attention
to the other varieties. Ten years ago, when
the potato could be raised successfully, and
was raised easily and abundantly, thrice as
many fiat turnips, ruta baga, carrots and
sugar beets, were raised as are now. We
can not account for the almost total disuse of
the ruta baga among us. 1t certainly is valu-
able root-can be raised as easily as ever-is
as grateful to cattle and sheep as it ever was,
and since the failure of the potato crop, is
much more needed Why should it not be
as much cultivated as formcrly9 The ruta
baga and fiat turnip can be raised cheaper
than any other root, the potato excepted.
The carrot, however, so more valuable, be-
cause more nutritive-it is more expensive
to raise, but is nevertheless very profitable
crop, and should be cultivated on every farm.
Nothing mixes in so well with poor hay, or
hay of inferior quality, as a good supply of
roots, for cattle and sheep; and nothing pre-
pares animals so well in the spring for the
transition from hay to grass, as good supply
of roots. We hope that during the coming
season there will be general return to this
kind of culture, and that an abundant harvest
will make the farmers hearts and their cat
ties stomachs glad-Maine Farmer.
