From New York letter in the Boston Traveller.
about Mrs. Cunningham
BurdeIps Friend, Spicer.

The Coroner was no doubt censurable,
when he refused to allow Spicer to testify
that DIR. Burdell had told him that he
was married to Ms. Cunningham on the
2Sth of October. But the Coroner was
guided by these considerations: He knew
Spicer; he knew that he was mere crea-
ture of Eckcl and Mrs. Cunningham; he
was as full Of rum as an egg is full of meat; I;
and it was on his affidavit that Mrs. Gun
ningham, three months after her reputed
marriage, relied to bring up the action
against Burdell for breach of promise of
marriage; and when Mr.. Thayer, her coun-
sci, proposed to renew the suit, Spicer had
his affidavit taken to revive the suit
Although the Coroner should not have
refused light from any quarter, and is so far
censurable, yet, the conclusion he reached
has been sustained by the Grand jury
Before the Grand Inquest Mr.. Spicer came
he told his story, and he went out from the
Grand Jury in the consciousness that the
Grand Jury did not believe one word he
said He contradicted himself several times
on vital matters, and was so confused at the
contradictions pointed out to him, that he
was completely silenced Take one instance
as an illustration; he was closely question
ed about the letter of DR.. Burdell to him,
which he says was lost or torn up-he does
not know which-he was able to give the
contents, some instances verbatim. One Of
the Grand Jury asked him how he was able
TO do this 2 he said that he had took copy
of some of the sentences, in case the lettel
should be lost or mislaid. He was asked
his motives in so doing9 He said he tool
a memorandum in order; to answer DIR
Burdell, as he had requested an answer
When reminded that he had sworn in hi
affidavit that he was forbidden by DIR. Bur
dell to reply at all, he crimsoned to his fore
head and could not answer; and his whole
examination was full of such glaring contra
dictions; and on this mans evidence Mrs
: Cunningham expects to come into an estat
, worth $4,000.
5 Snodgrass has made no confession an
t no revelation. He was not indicted, be
t cause there are revelations to come. HI
a is under bail as witness to the amount c
, $500, and when placed on the stand
, with assurance of the Government that h

Evergreen Shrubs.

While evergreen trees are planted in pro-
fusion, evergreen shrubs are sadly neglected.
Why is this' Groups of evergreen shrubs
add as much to the real beauty of garden,
as evergreen trees do to an extended land
scape. Does this neglect result from an i'm
preston that evergreen shrubs cannot be
grown successfully, or is it because few
know of the beauty of masses of evergreen
shrubs in gardens and lawns? We will
name few varieties of these evergreen
shrubs, that are perfectly hardy, and easily
grown All the Mahonias, or Rocky Noun
tain Berberry; the Kalmias or Sheep Lau-
rel, both narrow and broad leayed the trail
ing, or American Juniper; the Evergreen
Thorn; the Cotton casters; the American
Yew, and Canadian Holly. All these are
hardy, and will grow in any sharp, sandy
or gravelly soil, whore there has not been
either limo or animal manures applied
The roots should be mulched with rotter
wood or leaves, the first season; after that
they will take care of themselves.-O Ohic
| Farmer.

Small or Large potatoes for seed.

The comparative value of large or small
potatoes for planting, is n disputed point
Our beliefs, that well ripened seed is nee
essary whether it be large or small. Small
potatoes, as general thing, in good seasons
are the last settings; and when gathered,
are immature. If the season in which they
are used for seed, prove a wet one, they will
grow freely, and often produce as much as
better matured seed; but if the season
prove dry, the tops will be slender, and the
produce only "small potatoes, and few in q
hill"
In the Irish Farmers Gazette, Mr.
Dixon gives the result of his experience in
planting large and small seed potatoes, the
past season. The large potatoes selected
weighed about half pound each, planted
exactly yard apart, each way; product &
few pounds short of eight tons to the acre
The small seed either whole or cut in the
in the usual way, yielded seven tons pc
acre. The samples from the largo seed
were decidedly the BEST Ohio Farmer.

The GREAT Iron STEAMER.-The follow
lewing are some Of the main particulars Of
the enormous iron steamship now in course
of construction on the Thames. Her whole
length is es4 feet; breadth Of beam SO
feet; diameter of paddle wheels 121 feet;
depth of hole 20 feet; depth Of paddle
wheel SO feet; diameter of screw Al feet.
There will be five tunnels and seven masts,
two of the latter being square rugged. The
nominal horse power will be $500, but it
will work up from 5000 to 10000. Her
measurement will be 23,640 tons. 1t is ex-
pected that her crew will number from $50
TO 800 men, including twelve chief officers.
She will have Accommodations for 10000 per-
sons, including 1000 first class passengers
or, if used as transport she can carry
$4,000 troops and 5000 horses. She is
expected to run at the rate of sixteen miles
an hour. Surely this is one of the wonders
of mechanic power in the ninteenth century.

narrowing whca, in Tho spring.

EpiToR ONO FARMER--We learn much
by the experience Of others, rs we'll as our
own Six or seven years ago, / had two
pieces of wheat, sown in different felds.--
One peace, Of twenty acres, sown on corn
stubble. The other peice, of eight acres, on
oat-stuble, was in field, the balance Of
which had been sown in clover and other
grasses; and | wished to SOW this piece in
wheat and clover.
It was plowed up in September, and
about the first of June, October, probably, !
sown in Mediterranean wheat A few days
afterwards, the twenty acres of corn-stubble
was sown, in the same manner, and with
tho same kind of wheat on each one BUSH
el and half per acre.
In the following spring, about the lst Of
March, observed that the piece Of wheat
sown on oat stubble looked very thin and
badly, while that on the corn-stubblo looked
green and flourshing. After few days, l
was undetermined whether or not to plow
up the piece of wheat on the oat stubble.-
determined to sow clover seed on the
wheat, and harrow it in. Thinking the
wheat valueless, was not uneasy about in
juring it, with the harrow; and if did, my
other piece of wheat which was on better
land, promised to make enough for family
use. We never sold any wheat then, as it
was only worth forty or fifty cents per bushel
On the 9th of March, l finished sowing
my clover seed on the eight acre piece, and
on the tenth finished narrowing it both
ways. 1 used large harrow, with sharp
teeth, which pulverized the ground, and
sufficiently covered the clover seed, and tore
up much of the wheat by the roots. On
the night after 1 finished narrowing the
wheat there came fine rain.
did not see this peace of wheat again
until l went to examine if my clover seed
was coming up. found it up beautifully
and to my surprise none of the wheat was
killed by narrowing, and it looked thicker
greener, and more luxurient than the othe
piece. 1t continued to flourish, and yielded
twenty bushels per acre, while the piece
sown on corn stubble only produced fifteer
bushels per acre, which | also considered .
good crop.
Query. Was it the narrowing that caus
ed the difference of five bushels per acre, il
the two pieces; or was it because one piece
was sown on oat and the other on corn stub
bic or because one piece was sown fey
days earlier than the other? J. B. o.

About Cuttings

The earlier you get your cuttings planted
out, after the ground is well settled, the
more likely they will be to grow. Of fruits,
your Goosebery cuttings should be the first
to be planted; then the Black Currants; !;
then the Red or White Currants; then the
Ounce; and last, the Grape. Of shrub cut
tings, all the Spireas bud very early, there
fore they should be first set out; then the
Lilacs; then tho Golden Bell shurb, and
Weigilea; then the Tree Honeysuckles; and
last the Altheas.- Ohio Farmer.

Lent.

The word Lent signifies Spring, and thus
the 40 days fast observed by the PROTESTANT
Episcopal and Roman Catholic Churches
is called the Lenten season merely because
it occurs in the spring. Lent begins on
Ash-Wednesday, a day deriving its name
froll the ancient custom-still observed,
partially at least, in the Roman Catholic
churchcs-of putting ashes on the head, as
a symbol of humble repentance for sin. A
cross of ashes upon the forehead is the usual
method in this country of observing this
ceremony. The forty days are in imitation
of the fast of our Savior. The Carnival in
Rome, when the population is wholly given
up to all amusement, is succeed by lent, and
the close of Lent is celebrated with great
rejoicing, the ham, sausage, meat and egg
shops being Illuminated and ornameDted
SO as to attract buyers. Eggs arc heaped
up in endless quantities, and multiplied by
rejecting mirrors, and even butter statue.

A GREAT CRoP-It is stated that Col.
John Preston has realized 100000 for the
last crop Of his Louisiana sugar plantations,
the cane having been mostly converted into
molasses worth 80 cents a gallon. If sugar
planters realize such profits, why should
Congress appropriate $4,000 to send a
ship to the West Indies to buy seed-cane for
gratuitous distribution among theml Is it
simply because cane is grown by slave-labor,
and because the country is ruled by slave
ownersg

EVergreens.

Evergreens always succeed best, if plant
ed out from the goth of April to the lst of
June, according as tho season is early or
late. Just when the bud of the Evergreen
commences to swell is the time to trans
plant it. Take damp, wet, or cloudy day,
and do not expose to driving air or clear
sun one half hour of clear sun and sharp
wind, often destroys its vitality.-Ohio
Farmer.

Carrots.

Land for Carrots should be plowed early !;
plowed again, and again, and again, or, say
once in every two weeks, until the 15th of
May. 1t should be plowed very deep each
time, and left without narrowing. This
will kill several crops of weeds, will serve to
warm the soil, and your carrots, when sown
will grow in advance of the weeds, and thus
save labor in hocing- Ohio Farmer.
