borne by the invitors. The bridegroom
is to be accompanied by 200 pairs of young

CAP YoUR HAY.-The Agricu,tmiSt,
(Gnnge Jud, Editor) advises farmers to
get ready caps. for their hay. 1t is timely /:
Most farmers are doubtless aware that
on an average, one fourth of the value OF
all hay gathered is lost by its exposure to
ia u and heavy lews. This loss may be
saved by simply being provided with a
supply OF hay caps. These can be made
by pieces Of cotton shcetings, say yard
and half sqrare, with the torn edges
hemmed, and loop Of tape or string sew
ed upon each corner. They would be rcn
dered more effectual ifslightly coated with
oil; OF by dipping in water made quite
milky with chalk, or whiting, and after
drying dipping them into alum water. i
prepared in the latter manner they will
shed water quite freely. When grass is
cut down and put up in small stack oftwt
to four hundred pounds each, it can b'
protected by one Of these cloth coverings
the corners of the cap being fastened dowr
by thrusting little wooden pins through
the loops into each side of the stacks. Pro
tected in this way, hay can stand in th'
the field unharmed through rain and dew
until it is thoroughly cured.

EyMr. John Harrison, writing from
the Red Fork of Arkansas, on the first OF
June, to the Arkansas True Democrat, rel
ative to the gold mines there recently dis
covered, says:
"Three others, besides myself, started
from Greene county, Missouri, on the 10th
day of April last, and reached the gold
diggings on the 4th OF May. Our first
business was to find if the gold was really
there, as had been represented. On the
first day after our arrival, we came to a
branch and found, OH examining the bed,
that it contained vast quantities Of the pre-
cio1s metal. We had brought nothing
with us but frying pans, but even with
these, on washing out the first painful, we
obtained 3d. ,05 worth Of gold dust. We
stopped here several days, averaging S15
20 $50 per day. We could have made
more than we did, but we had nothing tc
dig with. We then proceeded to the
spring, which is the first place where the
gold is said to have been first discovered
Here we found that the water, boiling W
out of the ground, contained some small
Jumps of gold, and large quantity o
dust.
"I went out to California in 1s4o, a
the time the gold was found in the great
est abundance, and this exceeds California
have no doubt that if man had th
right kind of gold rocker, he could ge
gold as fast as he could count it. We hav,
been here abont month, and have mad
some $500 each. There are about thre
thousand persons i'll the different mines
and more coming in every day. Ther
are so many here that provisions are high
beef Sto 10 cents per pound aud flour 81

To LETTER WRrrERs.-z'he editor of
Life Illustrated, Published in New York,
makes the following capital suggestion.
which should be carefully needed by every
business man, as an hsbitual thing, as well
as by those who write occasional letters
replies. He says: "every bust,
ness man-anl every body else who writes
letters-should have few packages of
self -sealing letter envelops, with his own
name and Post-office address conspietously
prinaedMereon. Then put on stamps with
which to prepay the postage, and they are
on hand ready for use. Then, when you
write person requesting an answer, just
inclose one of these printed prepaid enve-
lopes, directed TO yourself, and you will be
likely to get an answer by return mail"
The Post Master General having had
his attention called to the recent develop.
ments respecting the discovery of valuable
letters among the waste paper sold to pa.
per mills by postmasters in various part,
of the country, has issued an order direct
ing that henceforth all the sweepings of til,
offices shall be thoroughly ex ,mined, il
order to guard against the possibility o
