LEAyITT,s LATEST IMPROVED
CDRU And CDD MILL.
Y0mng America Excelsior.

VyHE attention of the Farmers of
IL Montgomery County, is asked to
this greatly improved MILL for Crushing and
Grinding Corn and Cob Meal-Iorse feed gen
erally-and Meal from Sheled Corn.
1t is now well known that all animals are
improved in every respect by the use of ground
food, because Of its more easy and complete
digestion.
II is now well known that working animals
for the same reason, are lseptin good condition
at less cost, by the use Of food so prepared
But while these principles Of true economy are
so generally understood, many have been I'M
willing toprocure suitable Mills, because oftheir
expensive neutrality-suspicious. showing
that the Corn and Cob Mills heretofore before
the public, with the grinding plates cast solid,
with the two main portions OF the Mill, in
grinding for the use Of an average sized farm
viii wear smooth and become useless ia about
two years among such is the e Little Giant,
Granger's Magic aIilln etc.
In buying the EXCELSIOR MILL this OBJ
lection is entirely obyiated, as it is Permanent
Mil. The Grinding Plates, 1.-THE only parts
that wear OUT being two detached rings, cast
| seperate from the main and expensive parts Of
1 the Mill, each bolted on with three small bolts
and when worn smooth readily replaced in ten
minutes at n cost Of only SO.
We name among the other advantages this
MIL possesses over the other Portable Iron Mills
in use, that the regulating OF the fineaess of
grinding is done by simply turning one central
set screw The meal instead Of being scattered
around as in other mills is brought out at one
spout and no weight is required on the rear end
of the sweep as balance.
Wherever the Young America Excelsior has
been introduced it has superseded all others Of
the kind
This mill will grind from 3 to 90 bushels per
hour according to fineness and the grinding
is light work for two horses.
PRICE $50 including an extra set of grind
! ing places making it equal to two ordinary
Mills. They will be promptly delivered at any
point on the Railroad or in the District Of
Columbia, freight from Baltimore added
Orders by mail promptly attended to.

KYow-NoTIsNGIsM IN CALIFORNIA. -
The San Francisco Herald draws the
following picture of the prospects of the
" order" in California:
+" The first two spring elections in this
State have resulted in the defeat Of the
Know-nothings. This was to be expected
from their worse than supinenoss in the
legislature. They have not redeemed
their trust; they have not answered the
expectations of the conservative citizens
who voted for them, and there viii be
few honest tears shed when they shall
be utterly routed and oyerthrown. The
party has really played most discredita-
Die and sorry part since its advent to
power. Not single measure of general
utility have its members passed; and
they have FILTERED away their time in
unworthy fouds, sectional chickering's, the
consideration of Sunday laws, and other
tomfoolery and rubbish Of like charac-
ter"

SALT FOR WHEAT.-Theodore Perry
says, in the Prairie Farmer, that he
sowed one and half bushels of salt per
acre upon one half of a ten acre field lust
after seeding it with Spring wheat, and
the result was that the sailed portion was
ready for the sickle Eve days earlier than
the unsalted portion, and not particle
Of rust, scab or smut could be found. and
the increase of crop he estimated at five
bushels per acre.

mHOE QUIZ YOUR ROW y


One lazy day farmers boy
Was hoeing out the corn,
And modify had listened long
To hear the dinner horn.
The welcome blast was heard at last,
And down he dropped his hoe;
But goodman shouted in his car,
Hoe out your row 10,
Hoe out your rowl
Altho' ''hard one' was the row,
TO use a powman's phrase,
And the lad, as the sailors have it,
Beginning well to haze -
=" can, :" said he, and maniully
He seized again his hoe;
And the goodman smiled to see the boy
Hoe out his row--O,
Hoe out his row.
The lad the text remembered,
And proved the moral well,
This perseverance to the end
Az last will nobly tell.
Take courage man resolve you can,
And strike vigorous blow,
In LIES great field Of varied toll
Hoe out your row-O,
Hoe out your row.

The Cincinnati correspondent of a
New York paper furnishes the following
description of the hall in which the
Democratic National Convention is to be
held:
1.-THE difficulty with the hall is, that
It viii not hold comfortably or uncom-
fcrtably more than sixteen hundred per-
aons. The main portion of the hall seats
about one thousand persons, and here
viii be Systematically and centrally ar
ranged seats for the delegates, leaving a
lobby capable of acc, nmodating a crowd
of three or fosy hundred outsiders. The
galley will hold, perhaps, six hundred.
This very handsomely overlooks the
stage, which, with Its little green and
blue rooms, will barely suffice to hold the
officers of the meeting and the reporters.
The arrangement for the benefit of the
newspapers viii be very complete"

A WHOLE FAMILY IN HEAvEN. The
following eloquent passage is from the
pen of Albert Barnes:
/" A whole family in Heavehl Who
can picture or describe the everlasting
Joy. No one is absent. Nor father,
nor mother, nor son, nor daughter, are
away. In the world below they were
united in faith, and love, and peace, and
JOY. In the mormng Of the resurrection
they ascend together. Before the throne
they bow together in united admiration.
On the banks of the River Of Life they
walk hand in hand, and as family they
have commenced career Of glory which
shall be everlasting There is hereafter
to be no separation in that family. No
one is to lie down on bed of pain. No
one to wander in temptation. No one
to sink into the arms of death. Never
in Heaven is that family to move along
in the slow procession, clad in the habil-
iments Of woe, to consign one of its
members to the tomb God grant that
in his infinite mercy every family may be
thus united"
