The Glover Seed Crop.

We have, on previous occasion.
stated that great anxiety existed in
reference To The fate of the growing
crop OF clover-seed in this State and
Indiana. We have made every ex
erlIon to ascertain what has been
the fate of the crop, aud are sorry 10
announce that It has proven almost
an entire failure.
We have letters from various
poiats in this Stale and Indiana I;
some Of them say there will be 1T
lie, but fully lwo-thIrds OF our cor
respondents say the crop in each of
their localities is an entire failure
The after growth was very luxuriant,
too much SO 10 yield well, but the
wet weather cast il down, and il
partially roitcd on the ground before
il was cut, the weather so injured
the remaining seed, that II could
not be saved, except IN comparative
" few instances. We feel perfectly
salliied in saying that the entire "a
mount secured IN this State can not
be more than one-fonrth The average
crop, aud tic came may hs said OF
Indiana.
The stock of old seed in this
market is exceedingly light, and is
IN few hands.
BY the last steamer from England
we are advised that the crop ia that
island is a total failure aud IN Lon
don, Barring says, an active demand
has arisen for old. We have no
authentic intelligence as regards the
crop IN the eastern States, but We
are disposed to believe, from what
little Information we have, that it is
better than il is in the western States.
The stock of old seed in New
York is said TO be a moderate one. -

Every one should plant trees. No
object is more beautiful than a spread

tive than the apple or the luscious
pear. Half the labor bestowed on a
single crop of potatoes, would origi-
nate an orchard, the product of which
in a few years would be equal in val

with but little labor beyond the bar

spring or autumn, in transplanting
choice fruit-uees TO the roadside, or
tas,cfully grouping them on the lawn,
will ultimately add more to the value
of the place than twice the time en-
ployed in building OF fencing. For

SAwDusT FOR DEMONSTRATING
a short sojourn in Ohio, we visited
most of the livery stables, and found
that the only bedding in use was
sawdust. The propr,e,ors Of each
stable all testified that it was far SUI
perlor TO straw or hay; and in these
times Of scarcity, it must, in certain
localities, be more economical -
Without doubt, sawdust absorbs
large amount Of urine, and also its
ammoniacal gases preventing the
one from saturatlng the stable floor,
and the latter from deteriorating the
stable atmosphere.
Sawdust occupies less bulk than
straw, and, at the same time, affords
as sof, bed; the filthy can readily
be separated from that which is still
useful, and with the admixture Of a
fair proportion of excremeDt, forms
a valuable fertilizer. Some persons.
however, may object to the use of
sawdust, on account Of its absorbent
properties, which acting on the
horses hools may tend to render
them dry and brittle, and utterly I'M
pair the function of the same.
Should this be the case, we have
only TO stuff the hoo(s with moist clay,
or even wash them a little oftener,
and the evil, if it exists, can be re-
NEEDED.
One half the stable keepers in N.
England and elsewhere, have during
the pas, year, been sorely puzzled to
provide sufficient bedding and I'M
less some better and cheaper material
turns up, we would advise The inter-
esled To dry sawdus'. Perhaps the
addition OF few shavings might be
advantageous but, try saUdust.-

HcrOdOtIaS Confirmed.

In the last annual report of the Royal Asiatic
Society. an interesting account OF the recent dis
coveries in Assyria, made Colonel Rawlinson,
was read. The most important discovery is that
OF an Obelisk, in the southeast corner Of the great
mound of Nimrod, and ereeed by Shamasphul
the son Of Shaambara- The date of the obelisk
is about the beginning OF the eigth century, B. c.
The chronology of Assyra has received valua-
BILE accession by the discovery OF record Of one
OF the early kings, whose name is read TigIah-
Plieser, like that Of the late King of Assyria,
known 10 the Hebrews. Tiglath. PIieser l. is
shown to have 'fourished 4l8 years before the
reign of StnnachCrib. From letters more recent
ly received we learn that Colonel Rawnson has
read the name of Semiramis the statue of the
god Nebo, dug up from the ruins Of the palace Of
Nimrod.
Scmirams appears in legend upon the statue
10 Fave been really the wife of Pal, King Of As.
SYRIA the same is mentioned in the Book Of
Kings, contemporary of Mrnahem, King OF Israel.
Thus would place SemIrams $50 years before
Northumberland, which will curiously confirm
the tradition recorded by Herodous, that ibis
Queen preceded Nocrs, The wife of Nebucad.
n"zzar, by five generations equal 10 $50 years.
further very curious discovery, made by Col.
RawlInson. is that the employment of the Baby
lonian crucilorm wiring was continued down so
late the time OF Macedonian dominion in Asia,
the commencement of the third century before
Christ.
