ship, three Of iron aud three of wood Those
in the neishboEhood of The tunnels will be Of

when It is remembered that the furnaces, burn.

Seed Wheat fIom the South--Inportan ut to
! Farmers.

Mr. Anthony kilgorc, Of Mason coun-
ty, Ky, communicates TO the Couht,y
Gentleman the result Of an experiment
commenced in 1856, and continued TO
the present time. His object was to pro,
cure a variety of wheat that would ripen
at the earliest possible period, in order to
avoid damage by rust, which 50 frequent
ly cuts short the wheat crop at the or,
dinary period Of ripening. With this
view, Mr. X. procured three bushels Of
Early May wheat at Nashville, Tenn,
which is in latitude SO deg. 10. min
NORTH deg. 80 min. South OF Mason
county, where it was sown. The expcr
iment is represented as IA decided sue
cess" as the crop ripened the l4th of
| June--just two weeks in advance of the
ordinary acclmatcd varieties, and was
free from all diseases-straw as bright As
gold--whlle the crops of other wheat in
the surrounding farms was nearly DESTROY
ed BY rust. The same difference is rep
resented as continuing to the presen
time. A large crop was grown the las
season perfectly free from rust, weishin:
62 lbs. per bushcl, while all the later va
rietics, which were more or less affecte,

We heartily commend to the attention
Of our readers the subjoined extract from
an address by Donald q. Mitchell, Esq, ,
ok Marvel at the Connecticu, State
Fair:
"But there is something worth livir 2
for, besides money. That is ,ery good,
but is not all. With the rest, let Us raise
a crop Of good IDEAS. While you are
farmer, remember that you are man,
with duties aud responsibilities. Live
down the old brutal notion that farmer
must be uncouth, uneducated and un-
thinking mere plodder.
You are brought into immediate con-
tact with the great heart Of civilization.
You cannot get out Of the buzz Of the
toiling world The trill of the wouder
working wires, and the rumble of the
locomotive, (the thunder-threat Of na-
tions, come to your once secluded hill
side
"Movc toward better life. Do not
keep your boys -sheling in the long
winter evenings. Make your farm a
place that your sons aud daughters can
not help loving. Cultivate the trees
they are Gods messengers. Don't say
that you r,re nothing for looks. You do
care else why did you build that two
story white house, with blinds and Gu
pola, into which you never 90? Or why
did you, years ago, carefully brush your
coat, and pull up your shirt collar, when
you were starting on Sunday evening
to visit the good woman who now shares
your homer
J "Carc much more for books and pic,
lures. Don't keep solemn parlor, into
which you go but once month with the
parson or sewing society. Hang around
your walls pictures, which shall tell sto-
rles Of mercy, hope, courage, faith, and
charity. Make your living room the
largest and most cheerful in the house. -
Let the place be such that when your
boy has gone to distant lands, or even
when, perhaps he ciings to single plank
in the lonely waters of the wild ocean ,th'
thought Of the still homestead shall com,
across the desolation, bringing always
light, hope, and love
nave no dungeon ABOUT your mousse
no room you never open-no blinds tha
are always shut.
" Don't teach your daughters French
before they can weed nower-bed or clinl
to side-saddlc. And, daughters, do no
be ashamed Of the pruning. knife. Brin,
to your door the richest flowers from tn
woods; cultivate the friendship Of birds

vile; Caleb Shroycr, much younger
man, was another. q. Shields, Of Pun.
tytOwn, is negro trader, and We infer
has the grace cot to pretend to have any
religion whatever. Rector was the own
er of very likely young slave named
Jack, and Shields wanted to buy said
slave to sell in one of the cotton growing
! States. Jack was also a member Of the
! Methodist Church in knottsville, which
is very strong there, nnd has never dis
solved its connection with the regular,
old.timc organization, now distinguished
as the Method Church North. Rector
and his slave Jack were members Of the
same class in Church. Shroyer's father
was its class leader. Shields, the negro
trader, hired Shroyer for some S25 to
help him buy jack Of his master, which
Shroyer hcsitatcd to do until he had con
suited and obtained the sanction of his
class leading father aforesaid. They then
laid siege to Rector, and persuaded him
to sell his chattel-according to the laws
