Value of Corn Fodder.

have been farmer for number Of
years, but never knew the value Of corn
fodder until the present season. On the
fodder of little less than one-half acre
of corn, kept horse and O COW from
the 18th Of 10th mo-, 1858, to the 18th
of lst mo-, 1859, g months) My horse
had no more grain than have usually
given him when feeding on good hay.
viz z:-one peck of oats per day. He
worked every day, or nearly so, hauling
sand upon a cranberry bog. chopped
the fodder in common hay cutter, and
the COW always eat up what the horse
left. Aside from the chopped corn fod-
der. the COW had but an occasional
''mess" of roots. Since the 18th of last
month, have chopped some oat straw
and mixed it with the corn fodder in
equal quantities, OF which mixture have
enough to last this month out. have
not fed so lbs. Of hay this winter. l
husked from the same ground about 100
bushels of ears of corn, besides consid-
cradle that was too green to save. l
also sold 4 tons of pumpkins, at $500
per ton, retaining several loads for my
own use. cut up my corn before the
frost, bound it in bundles and carefully
stacked it in the field. After husking.I
took care to have the stacks set erect
upon loose floors, to prevent them from
moulding.
l think farmers generally would do
we'll to take more pains in saving their
corn fodder, especially in seasons where
hay is short. l think, too, that there is
more advantage in cutting it, than in
cutting any other fodder, as cattle and
horses will uaavoidably leave the large
stalks, if uncut. which will pass into the
manure heap. where they are found far
more troublesome than useful.

HOOPS.

Hoops on barrels, kegs and pals,
Hoops on boxes, tubs and bales,
Are articles indispensable;
But hoops as they puff out woman's dress,
Making the woman seem so much less,
Are things most undefensible.
Hoops, when their sturdy clasp confines
In brown old casks the richest wines,
Are objects of admiration;
But hoops as part of woman's baggage,
Are like the whoops of painted savage
A vile abomination.
Hoops make useful, pretty toys
For active little girls and boys;
But hoops on woman gentle,
Are things to sneer at and to scoff,
And like tho whoop Of whooping Sough,
Neither useful nor Ornamental.
For while dear woman bones her skirts,
And with a skeleton 1aunts and firts,
She has so much to carry,
Man finds IL hard with her to talk,
And harder still to sit or walk,
But hardest of all to marry.
For when . smitten wretch has seen,
Among the lost in crinoline,
The one his heart holds dearer,
Oh what chill to ardent passion.
To feel that through this hollow fashion
He never can be nearer.
That instead of timidly drawing near,
And pouring into the thrilling ear
The flood of his souls devotion,
He must stand and below in thunder tones,
Across half acre of skirts and bones,
As if hailing ship on the ocean
And if by chance the maid of his choice,
Should family hear her lovor's voice
And smile her condescension;
Why he captures mass of hoops and rings,
Skeletons, bones, and other things
Too horrible to mention.
Thus lovely woman hopes too folly,
And drives poor man to melancholy
By her great frigid zones;
Then let her hear warning voice,
Between her hoops and hopes make choice,
And give the dogs her bones.

The New York Times closes an editorial
review of the present aspect of parties, as
follows
"If the Democrats are unwsc enough to
nominate Southern man, or any man stand
ing upon the new slavery
platform, Mr.. Sew ards nomination may be
considered certain, and his election highly
probable If they take Douglas, or any
man holding frankly and openly his position
on the slavery question, they may compel
the Republicans to make some other selec-
ton or to take large risks in the canvass"
