CALIroRSIA.
Mr.. MARSHALL, of California, introduced a
BILL of which he had given previous notice, author
izing the repayment of certain moneys into the
trea ury Of that State which collected in her
ports on imports since the treaty of Guadalupe Hi
dalgo and prior 10 the admission OF California into
the Union The money. he said, was collected
during the military occupation of the country, at
time when the people had no benefit OF civil law
and no representation anywhere. The true prin-
ciplo of the American Revolution was, taxation
without representation. The money was here,
aud II was money which the young State now
wants. He moved that the bill be referred to the
Committee on Military Affairs, instead of TO the
Committee of Ways and Means, where it would bo
smothcred up--or words to that effect.

ISSUE Il may be that simultaneous outbreaks
in France, Italy, and Germany, may di-
vde-and in time possibly exhaust--thc
treasures Of despotism but the lowest
imaginable computation cannot, in reason, fix
the sum actually needed by KossUrn at any
thing like so small an estimate as that which
he has put forward The supposition that
England will give another million removes
only fraction of the difficulty. The noun
tain is still untouched.
In the present state of Europe, little or a
cheap revolution is as improbable as little
war. The struggle, come when it may, will be
Titanic in its cost, well as in its proportions
and its consequences. Wo appreciate the 81
gacity of KossuTH and his great Co o-worker,
MAzzINI, much too highly to think that they
have come TO any other conclusion. Our citi-
zens have right, then, to expect specific in
formation on the question Of means and expen-
iditure before being asked 10 contribute to any
further loan. A million Of dollars, furnished
out of the purses of private individuals. is com
paratiyely small matter but it will wear an
essentially different aspect if it turn out that
this private subscription is to aid, and not to
superSede, the exertions that are recommended
to force this Republic into an attitude of hos
tility towards Russia and absolutism in general.
The next Grafton will no doubt remove the
mystery that still overhangs this delicate point.
In the meantime, we expect another avalanche
of abuse, for presuming to call in question the
sufficiency of the development with which our
countrYmen have already been favored.

Keeping FOwls.-valuc of their Manure.

AT large agricultural discussion in Al
'bany, Mr.. Chester Moses of Skaneatles,
made some valuable remarks on poultry
keeping. He stated that for several wears
past he had kept 600 or 700 fowls, and
the last winter kept 900. His object is
eggs. of which his fowls average about 100
each, annually. They are not confined
but are allowed to range at will. Their
food Is principally wheat screenings, with
some corn, buck-whcat and animal oilal.
Tie IS also particular to allow them plenty
-ol oyster shells, pounded, which, especial
~ during spring, or any season when they
lay most. they eat large quantities of. The
tlmc OF the oystcr-shclIs doubtless con-
tubntes To the formation of the shell Of the
egg, and perhaps assists in the digestion of
the food.
Mr.. Moses considers the manure Of his
fowls of much importance, and takes care
that 1t IS all saved and applied to his crops.
Under the building in which the fowls
Foost Is cellar into which aIl the manure
IS put. In the spring, few weeks before
planting time, the manure is worked over
and mixed with plaster-sometimes with
plaster and ashes in equal proportions,
"SIng enough OF these articles to make the
manure so dry as TO puIyerize thoroughly.
lhc domestic guano Of which Mr.. NJ.
sometimes has the quantity of 300 bushels
IN a season, produces a powerful effect up-
on the growth oi Indian corn. His mode
OF applying 1t Is, to drop a handful in each
hlll, which Is covered half an inch more
with earth, IN order to prcven, the seed
from coming in immediate contact with
the manure, which experience has shown
would prevent lis termination. Mr.. NJ.
stated that he had tried this compost in
comparison with good hog manure. bv ap-
plying each 20 corn in the same field and
on similar soil. On one part half 4
shovel fun Of hog manure was put in 4
hIII and on the other part, q handful o.
hen manure compost. The crop was BET
ter where the latter was used, and the
succeeding crop. (which was oats showed
ihe same resultin favor of the hen manure.
On another occasion he MANFRED ten
acres with the hau manure. which produ-
eed sixty bushels Of corn to tie acre. On
