A VERMONT FARMER AND HIS FARN.-Many
years ago, Ezra MEAcH came into Vermont,
and began life here asa trapner and n raft smnn
Honest, Industrious shrewd. and of great
physical strength (without being fat. his

His farms lie in Charlotte and Shclhurnc
on the bank of Lake Champlnin, and the
whole extensive area shows we'll directed in
dustry and good taste. The capacious farm
house looks out upon the lake, and is sur
rounded by trees. hedges. and one Of the
finest fruit and flower gardens in New Eng
land. Although the owner of about 1000
acres Of land, he has brought the whole I'M
der superior cultivation. and has proved, on
large scale. that Vermont farms, ,ceN cuhi-
rated, will yield a fair profit.
On his broad acres there feed about 500
cattle. and about 1000 sheep, all Of the
choicest breeds, and yield their owner gen
erous recompense for his care and labor.
On this noble farm was raised the past
year, 80 acres Of wheat. 40 acres of rye, Q
acres Of Indian corn. 90 acres of potatoes, q
acres of beans, and 80 acres Of oats. About
$50 acres are used meadow.

SMALL POTATOES FOR SEED,-Mr. c. I. AL
word of Wilmington, VT, says Some
eight years since, at the time of planting my
potatoes, came short of seed to plant, Pre-
yious to this time, | had used large whole
potatoes, or the seed ends cut off for seed.
and supposed that no others would answer.
resolved to try the the experiment of plant
ing small potatoes, the largest being about
the size of common plums, but the most of
them being smaller. l carried several
bushels of these little things to the field and
commenced planting them, putting from two
to four in hill. The potatoes in the diffe-
rent parts of the Geld came up at the same
time, but the vines from the small potatoes
were not so large and thrifty as those from
the large ones. At the first hoeing there was
some difference in the tops, but after that the
tops from the small potatoes looked as we'll
as any of the field, and continued to throw
the season. When came to dig them,
found the potatoes where the small seed was
planted to be as good in every respect as
those where the large potatoes were planted.
/ There were as many in hill, and the pota.
| toes were as large and with as few small ones
as those from the large seed.-COuntry Gen

The BANKS OF THE UNITED SrArrs.-.

The BANKS OF THE UNITED SrATEs.-A re-
port in relation to the condition Of the banks
OF the United States at the close of the last
year, was submitted to Congress by the Sccre-
tary of the Treasury, of which the \. y. Post
gives the following summary
at il cludcs returns from l3 ,307 banks and
branches, with a reported capital Of $532,-
IL ,2oS, showing an increase during the year
Of mnety-nine in the number of banks and OF
$50, SOP ,207 in the amount of capital paid in,
But though there has been an Increase in the
number ot banks and in the capital paid in, it
appears that their specie has been reduced
between five and six millions, or from S5J,-
400, ,253 to Sj3 ,9i4 ,j4j, and th'ir circulation
nearly eighteen millions, or from S2oi $50
209, to SlS6, ,4j2 ,4423. II the banks had
made all their returns on The first day OF Jan
uary, 1874, and the first day Of January, lS5j,
the Secretary believes that the reduction of
circulation would have been found to be much
greater than is exhibited in general tIblcs.-
The time for making the returns from the
banks in some OF the States was that time oil
the year in which their issues were greatest.

REGARD FOR THE RED MANA letter to the
San Antonio Texan, dated Fredericksburg,
February I, after giving an account of late
Indian outrages in that neighborhood says
- Gen. Smith has been repeatedly advised of
the state of affairs as they exist among us,
and failed even to notice our petition for the
aid we SO much need. We are, therefore,
forced to resort to the only alternative left us,
viz, to undertake upon our own responsibility
war of extermination against the deprede-
tors, and we will very soon have completed
all the requisite arrangements to strike de-
fensIvo blow in our defence, by pushing the
war into the strongholds Of the enemy,
beard the lion in his den, and destroy
euery red devil, withom regard 10 age or sea,
that crosses our vision, Our government
may probably proclaim us tilibustiers and
all that, but duty demands this at our hands,
aud carry 1t out we WILL in defiance of pro-
clamations of every character
General Houston says the Indians, in these
border difficulties, are almost always "mort
sinned against than SHINING"

SLAVE REPRESENTATION. The Buffalo En-
press, in answer to correspondent, explains
the modus operandi of slave representation
thus:
The question supposos that the owners of
slaves in country cast, In person, an increas-
ed number of votes, on that account, at the
ballot-hox which is not the case. The mat
ter may be thus explained In establishing
representative district, there is added to
the number of free persons the number OF the
slaves in it, every five of whom are counted
the same three persons. Thus, five 81 yes
in South Carolina go as far towards establish
ing basis of representation, as three free
men Of the State of New York. Ii we sup
pose that given representative district
contains hut one slave owner, he having
thousand slaves, than such district will con-
tain IL less number of free persons by six
hundred than it would were there no slaves
IN it. Again, if we suppose the number
constituting district to he 10000, then II
dist let which should contain 100000 slaves
would be entitled to n representative, and one
free nan residing in such district might,
by hIs single ballot, cast the whole vote and
elect himself In that way it may yet hap
pen that some one slave owner will be
enabled to control as much political power
us II whole district of fr. emen at the North.

The AFRICAN SQUADRON AND THE SLAVE
Foote of the United
States Navy, has published pamphlet,
slowing what the African squadron has done
to break up the slave trade, and in condem-
nation of the policy which would withdraw
our national vessels from that coast Com
modore Foote thinks that if the Government
is in earnest in wishing to stop this trade, it
should increase the efficiency of the force by
the addition of several small steamers, as be-
ing better adapted for the suppression of the
slave traffic, and for the protection of our
valuable commerce, than the mere sailing
vessels now composing the squadron. The
United States have but one irigate and two
small sloops of war comprising the African
squadron. France, with commerce one
hundred per cent. less than the United States,
has twelve cruisers. Had the United States,
in place of her three sailing vessels, the num-
ber of steamers and sailing cruisers on the
coast, with treaty stipulations for co-opera-
ton, that France now has, and which, 1t is
believed, she intends to be continued there,
! (unless portion be temporarily withdrawn
on account of the Russian war; we soon
should hear no more Of the American flag be-
! ing engaged in the slave trade, than we now
do of the colors of England and France cover
ing that atrocious trafic.-N. o. Delta.

THE .EA SERpENT.-lt is reported by the
British brig Abeona, recently arrived at
Liverpool, that on the 4th of September last,
about p. NJ, in lat So S. long. Is f.,
while the ship was under light wind and
smooth water, sea monster of great size and
singular appearance was described. Attcn-
tion was first directed to it by the broken
action of the water, which otherwise was
smooth all around. The animal was dis
covered protruding it's head above water to
the length of about thirty feet at an angle of
sixty degrees to the horizon. His head was
about twelve feet long, and was marked by II
white stripe or streak down each side. At
about six feet from the termination of the
! streaks, which were presumed to be its jaws,
there was a protuherance ON its back like a
small water cask. The creature kept its eyes
shut, hut its eyes were plainly visible. At
/ the point Of contact with the water, the body
seemed about as large as the long boat. The
general color was black, but under the jaw
was quantity of loose skin like pouch,
of II lighter color than the rest of the animal.
While under observation he dipped under
water three times, remaining submerged
about a minute each time. From the broken
action Of the water at different points, il
seemed as if protuborauces similar to those on
the back existed on various parts of the body
From the best conjecture that could be made
its whole length WAS computed at $50 feet
