Corn Crop in New Madrid County.

Southeast Missouri is the great corn grow
ing region of the West. We learn from the
New Madrid Times that the crop this year
is most promising;
We have recently been in almost every
section of New Madrid county, and find the
corn crop usually very good. We suppose
it may be safely said that the corn crop is
better than it has been known for many
years. The wheat crop is also good. The
farmers of our county have great reasons to
be grateful, for never before was there any
better prospects ahead of them. Our coun-
try is blessed with natural resources of soil
and climate beyond, perhaps, any other Sec
ton in the Union for the production Of the
great staples Of life, as well as for many 9TH
er secondary commodities, besides being SIT
ualed on the greatest thofoughlare of navi-
CATION IN the world.

WrAS,rs CoLrs.-As the time for wean.

WEAVING CoLTs.-As the time for wean-
ing colts is at hand, some may be benefited
by word Of caution. The first thing is tc
see that the colt is in good health, and wcan
II by degrees, or as not 10 produce any great
uneasiness in either colt or dam. Ii the
mare grows poor and is ont of condition,
wean sooner, and give the colt a little cow
milk twice day, as the colt will also grow
poor il it sucks. If the mare is fat and full
Of milk when the colt is turned away, milk
her often, but not clean, A'little care at
this time may prevent her from being poor
in the spring. See the colt often. See that
it does not scour, or become costive. Give
il n raw egg twice week, and its coat will
continue smooth and soft. Keep in good
growing condition, without feeding dry grain,
as that Is apt 10 cause it to be wormy and in
bad condition in the spring.
See if your colt has lice on it when you
wean it,also at the commencement Of winter;
keep it clear Of them, or it will be poor
Colts that run out should be protected by a
shed, or have roomy stable; they should be
well halter broke, but not tied in the stable,
as they are more apt to become wind-suckers
by being tied and no feed before them. This
is the time TO break cots;let them know you
are master; this is the time they will form
an attachment for you. Let him know when
he performs right; his habits are now form
ing. Keep him pleasant as you would al
ways have him in your presence Ohio

The First Locomotive.

The Charleston Mercury gives an inter-
esting account of the first locomotive buill
in this country. 1t says that the South Car
olina Railroad was the first one commenced
in the United States, to be worked by steam
power, and when finished and ready for use,
which was on the I'd Of October, 1888, it
was the longest railroad in the world-be-
ing 1856 miles from Charleston 10 Hamburg.
1t was the first railroad in the United States
that carried the mails, and the first locomo-
tive built in this country was constructed
for and used on that road.
"This engine would be curiosity if
placed alongside one of Norris or Baldwn's
last improvements. 1t was named the Best
Friend and was built under the direction
of Mr.. E. l.. Miller, of WATERFORD at the
West Point Foundry OF Messrs. Kemble,
New York. The engine has no tender but
carried her own wood and water. The
wheels were OF wood, with spokes like a
wagon, land the wheels armed with wrought
iron tire. The engineer who run the first
locomotive that was used on this or any 9TH
err road in the United States, was N. K.
Darrell, an apprentice brought up in Dot
terer's machine shop.
CATER a few trips the wooden wheels of
the Best Friend gave way, and were re-
placed by cast iron ones, the pattern Tor
which was made, and the wheels cast, by
another Of Dotterer's apprentice boys,J d.
Petsch, then the foreman of that well known
establishment. These, it is believed, were
the first cast iron wheels used on railroads
in this country. The Best Friend blew
up after brief career, and from its wreck
another engine was built by Mr.. Petsch, at
the company's workshop OF which he was
then in charge. 1t was called the Phoenix.
Previously 10 this the crank axle had been
used; but in the reconstruction of this en-
CINE, Mr.. ]. D. Petsch introduced the
straight axle, with outside connections, and
also wrought iron ties on the cast iron dri-
wing wheels, neither ofwhich, il is believed,
had before been tried in this country.

THE BEAUTY OF BLUsH.--Goethe wa.
in company with mother and her daughter
when the latter, being reproved for some
lask, blushed and burst into tears. Ht
said: "How beautiful your reproach ha.
made your daughter. The crimson hue
and those silvery tears become her better
than any ornament of gold and pearls
These may hang on the neck of wanton,
but these are never seen disconnected with
moral purity. A full blown rose, besprink-
led with the purest dew, is not SO beautiful
as this child blushing beneath her parents
displeasure, and shedding tears Of sorrow
for her fault. A blush is the sign which
nature hangs out 10 sheY where chastity
md honor dwell"

BAPTIST AssocIATroN.--On Saturday last
the District Association OF United Babtists
convened in this place. This Association
is composed ofthirty-seven churches located
in the counties OF Randolph, Howard, Boone,
Monroe, Macon and Charlton. 1t numbers
5000 members, having increased about 500
within the last year. An unusually large
number of delegates from the various
churches were in attendance, and their pro-
ceedipgs were conducted in harmonious
and Christian-like manner. The college
chapel was also well crowded with specta
tors, and on Sunday the crowd was divided
into three congregations. Bethel Church, in
Charlton County, made application for ad-
mission into the Association, and was re-
fused upon the ground of having admitted
to its membership one who had been previ-
ously excluded from the Charlton Church,
and no reconciliation having been effected
between these two churches on the matter.
Mr.. Allen, the colporteur of the American
Tract Society, read letter he received
from an official Of that body, stating he felt
much rejoiced at "the prospect of Missouri
soon becoming free State" and desired
'hsh Ooohe ia 6Siy SiSu'osSa' 'hSiSupoh
the Association adopted a resolution declar-
ing they would not countenance the crcua-
ton Of books of this Society within their
limits. Their action in this matter will meet
with genaral approval. The proposed en-
dowment Of Mount Pleasant College was al
so taken into consideration, and decided
feeling evinced that this highly desirable
object should be consumated. We feel con-
fident from the number of Churches en-
braced in this Association, and the wealth,
liberality and enlightened benevolence Of
their members, that such will be the case.
Twenty five thousand dollars was agreed
upon as the Endowment Fund ten thousand
Of which is 10 be raised the present year.
Elder Noah Flood was appointed agent for
this purpose. The College Committee made
q most favorable report on its prospects,
which we will be pleased to publish as soon
as We receive copy Of the Minutes
There now remains only the sum Of 1852
due upon the College building.
On Monday evening the Association closed
its lobors amid general good feeling, 10 meet
next year with the church at New Hope,
in Charlton county Randolph Citizen,
