State to yield to my nomination for the Pre-
sidency. their active and Jealous support.
Standing as | do, as the known candidate
of another party, l yet receive this recon-
mendation with gratitude and p,ide. feel
that it Is made, not because the PRINCIPLES of
the two parties are identical: nor with a view
of merging them in each other-for such an
object is expressly disclaimed by the Conven
tion-but because the principles which nv

to those maintained by the Wings of Virginia
than those Of any other candidate; and be-
cause, as the Convention was pleased to saw,
Of their confidence in my late administration
Of the government.
Whatever may be orr differences on minor
subjects, | am sure there is one on which we
agree-and that one at this moment is para

oon of the Union of these States. and the re-
scuing the country from sectional strife. The

Barns.

Those who build now, are pretty generally
agreed upon one point that it is more econO-
mical to build one building for the various farm
purposes, rather than the great number which
are seen so common about old establishments.
Let us look at a few figures, which ,cont
lie. A building ten feet square contains one
thousand cubic feet. Not to speak of the
roof, the outside, presents surface to the
weather of four hundred feet. We have, then,
ten feet inside to four feet outside
Take another example. 4 building twenty
feet square contains eight thousand cubic feet;
the outside measures one thousand six hun
dred feet Here we have five feet inside to
one foot outside. We will now take build
ing forty feet square. The inside to the out
side is as ten TO one,
am aware that the larger structure re-
q1ires heavier frame. that is ALL The boards
and shingles are the same in either case /
know, too, that the wide roof is worn by rain
That objection, however, is not of great weight
| hold, Mr.. Brown, that one part of large
barn accommodates another part. tits saw
ing of steps to have your horse near the vehi-
Gle in which you wish to attach him. Why 60
several rods to ten-footer, and open another
set of doors in the wind to get out the chaise ?"
What comfort. in returning from market or
town-meeting on a stormy day, and driving in
to snug doorway, there to untackle and put
away horse and wagon, with ease and expedi-
ton. There is no difficulty in dispensing with
the carriage house F.; the barn is the place for
all the vehicles, the cellar takes in all the carts
and coarse wagcns-a room at the side of the
driveway the lighter vehicles
Then what need is there for a separate bull
ding for tools what place so central as an am
pie room by the side of the doorway? You
start from the barn, usually, to go TO different
parts of the farm, and you return thither after
the work is done
have thought, Mr.. Brown that portable
bins for corn might be put up in this large
tool room. In the busy season of the year,
corn-bins are apt to get pretty low, so they
would not be in the way much when the tools
were most used. l should prefer that the bins
be where they could be seen to often. One
might stand better chance then of keeping
