SHOCKING TERMINATION OF A LOVE AFFAR.-On
Saturday last Robert Schmidt, of Theresa, in Dodge
county, Wisconsin, shot down. in the street of that
place, Harriet Sedler, young lady about twenty
years or age. The parties were engaged to be mar
ried about one year ago, and Schmidt had come over
from st. Paul, Van Buren county, Michigan, where
be has resided about year. to fulfill the engagement;
but the parents of the young lady objected to the
marriage, in consequence of which II was ar
ranged between the lovers that Schmidt should first
shoot the young lady and then shoot himself He ex-
ecuted his design, so far the young lady was con-
cerned but failed to shoot HIMSELF account of the
loss of the cap on his gun.
After failing in this, he ran and threw himself into
the river, with the intention to drown himself but
was rescued by persons who saw him. He Is now ar
rested and awaits trial. The charge (Which VIZ
ne shoD entered the left breast of the young lady,
and inflicted horrible wound of which she expired
on Sunday morning, about 2 o'clock. She had her
senses up to the last and charged her parents with
being responsible for the awful deed, and acquitted
her lover of all blame. The parties, their names
indicate, were Germans.

The Dead.

There is, perhaps, no feeling Of our ma
ture 90 vague, SO complicated, So mysterious
as that with which we look upon the cold
remains of our fellow mortals. The dignity
with which death invests the meanest OF
his victims inspires US with an awe that no
living thing can create. The monarch on
his throne sinks beneath the beggar in his
shroud. The marble features, the pow er.
less hand, the stiffened limb--oh who can
contemplate these with feelings that can
be defined! These are the mockery of all
our hopes and fears Our fondest love, our
fellest hate. Can it be that we now shrink
almost with horror from the touch of the
hand that but yesterday was fondly clasped
in our ownl Is that tongue, whose accents
even now dwell in our ears, forever chained
in the silence of deathl Those dark and
heavy eye-lids, are they forever to seal uE
in darkness :he eyes whose glance nc
earthly power could restrain! And the
spirit which animated that clay, where is i
row? Does it witness our grief! does i
share cur sorrows! Or is the mysteriou
tie that linked it to mortality broken forever
And remenbrances of earthly scenes. arr
they joys to the enfranchised spirit as tht
morning dream or the falling cloud? Alas
ssll we know is, nothing can be Known
until We ourselves shall have passed tn,
dread ordeal.

A Word about Sowing Wheat.

A Word about Sowing Wheat.
As our farmers are shout to begin seed
ing, have hint to drop upon the subject.
Belmont county sho uld be the best wheat
growing county in the State. Her soil is
as well adapted to the production OF this
e ain as any other in the country Yet by
the census of 1850 it appears that she falls
far behind many other less fertile sections.
Lancaster county, Pa. stands first, Genesee
county, New York, second, and Stark CO.,
Ohio third. Belmont county falls 5OO,OO
bushels below the last. Various causes
NAV combine to bring about this result, but
| think ii is owing very largely to bad cul-
tivstion. Having resided among the far
mers of Genesee and Stark counties, as
well as those of Belmont, can speak some
what confidently on the subject. In one
particular the Belmont farmers are especial
ly deficient: that is, the careless manner in
which the ground is prepared for the seed.
In Belmont county where the seed is
sown broadcast, The ground is often simply
plowed, sometimes narrowed once, rery sell
dom more than twice. When the wheat is
drilled, the ground is merely narrowed over
enough to make the drilling pracncable- "A
fp Of our farmers level their fields with
the roller, but this only pulyerizes the sur

u-uaily consists in narrowing the fields
W rh hesvy weights attached TO the harrows
untiI The soil near the surface is pretty well
pulvefized. Then corn cultivators are pul

isconsinued until the ground il reli puIycr

this is done. In Stark county, the farmers
if possible, are still more careful 10 prepare
the ground properly. They are now intro

With these the fallow ground is slirrel

as if shovel plow bad been used. This i

Then i, is narrowed again and the sec
put in with drill. The consequence q
this treatment is that tfe wheat grow
ecenly, and grows rank, and tie heads ar
well filled. F:e Ids put in as the Belmon
farmers do, produce about the same. Unles
the soil is ,cell pulyerized, the wheat wi
not get nourshment enough for the growt
of the stalk and filling of the heads
Espec ially is this true of poor soil. Let OF
farmers this fall try the plan describe

their work. JOHN r. HARPER.
