FARM WORK FOR JULY.


While attending to your harvest duties do
not neglect your Fall potatoes. Keep the
earth well stirred about them, and 4 they APP
pear to require assistance, give theln tup
dressing of ashes. salt, and plaster mixed TO-
Gather Remember here too, that ashes and
woods earth. and little lime combined to-
gethsr,S stimulate the growth of the potato
wonderfully.
A light soil. either naturally so or made as
light as possible by deep and frequent blowing
is one of which is best adapted for growing
the turnip rapidly and to perfection, If Ruta
Baeas are sown, as they ought to be, not later
than the beginning Of this month it would be
best to SOW them in drills three feet apart
the drills being previously MANFRED with well
rotted manure ridge up as if for potatoes
and tiatten down the ridge with light roller
or the back of a rake. Now run light fur
row on top and sow your seed. Keep the
ground clean subsequently with the hoe and
cultiyator, and if the season is a favorable
one YOU may count upon securing a good
crop. The White Norfolk and Purple Top
turnips should also be sown sometime in July
say two weeks later than the proper season
for putting in the Ruta Bagas, and they may
be treated in the same manner. If broad
oasted, for the purpose of seeding down the
same land to grass, a custom, however, OF
which we do not approve, as it prevents all
further cultivation of the turnip, see that the
land is in the finest of filth, and rich enough
to force the root crop rapidly.
BucKwHEAr,
This grain ought not to be sown later than
the second week in July. II the land is poor
give it Moderate dressing Of ashes and bone
dust-say ten bushels of the other or, bet
ter still, two hundred pounds to the acre of
mixed Peruvian and Phosphate guano.
MELONS, &c.
Keep your melon beds well earthed up, light
as an ash heap, free from weeds and water
frequently in dry weather. Do the same. by
your Canteloupes, Cymblins Cucumbers, &c.
Don't bruise the vines i'll working them, and
pinch off the terminal buds to throw them in.

nounced some days since In our special cores
pondence, an rushed IN.
When Pres cent qniza reachel C rrientes,
under his arrangement with Lopez, he found how
matters stood, and says in his report that he
could return the confidence of President Lopez
In Offering to come into the territory of the
Confederation by prose- ding at once to
Paraguay. So he followed the Commodore,
and his report tells the rest of the story.
This Ie:ult is exactly what we have predi Il,
in the columns Of the HERALD ever since we be-
gan to receive the braggadocio announc amcn,s
Of the Para uayan press. The louder the Spa
niards boast the greater is their fear THOSE
black republican journals taat 80 RAPIDLY abused
the President for sending out the expedition to
Paraguay will now be forced to confess that the
administration was perfectly right in adopting
the course it dit. Had the milk and water
morality which they advocate been allowed to
prevail, we might still have been soliciting Presi
dent Lopez to do justice, and receive only insults
in return for our moderation. Com nodore Shu.
brick and the big guns behind him were the real
paciicators in this case, and the result will be
that if the United States is only decently repre-
sented dplo uatically hereafter in those regions
American interests and American citizens Will
be respected for generation at least, by all the
riverine States of La Plata
We have but enc word more to say. The
Paraguay expedition is now, probably, on its
way home. Part of it is no doubt already
near OR shores Its shot and sh II are unex-
pended. Its sailors and marines are in fne
state of drill. Everything is ready for imme-
date action. We advise, we urge the President.
to assume The responsibility, and sent it at once
to the ports Of Mica aqua. lie, it exhibit lis
powers of moral snasion on President Martinez
just as ithas on President Lopez. Oar word Tor
it, not shot win be fred II it goes ready t, fire
shot American interests in Nicaragua will at
once assume respected character, and our citi-
zens may thee cross the Isthmus for twenty
years at least, with the most implicit confidence
IN the safety Of their lives and of their interests
Our Central Ameri an imbroglio requires only
the naval style of diplomacy to Re So tied as
easily as the Paraguay difficulty has been ar

TIE SICKLEs TRIAI.-HARD TO GET A jury
Again this case has been adjourned without q
jury being obtained. Though seventy. five tales
men were summoned only three were sworn, and
for this day seventy-tive more are summoned,
when it is probable the remaining four may be
sworn, and tomorrow the merits of the case be
gone into. Instead of seventy five talesmen sum-
moned each day, there ought to have been four
or five hundred jurors summoned on the first
day of the trial. The difficulty arises from the
fact of the case gaining so much notoriety, and
being so thoroughly discussed that almost every
person is biased; and then the difficulty is
further increased by the property qualification
of $500, which sounds harsh in democratic re-
public. Had Judge Crawford followed the course
of some of our New York Judges, who exclude
jurors because they form an opinion upon what
they read about case in the newspapers, he
would hardly obtain jury at all.
IT is significant fact, as showing the state Of
public opinion in Washington, that majority of
The talesmen who were rejected as jurors yestcr-
day-residents, as they are in city in which the
accused was comparative stranger, and the de-
ceased was not only well known but very po-
pular man-that these his townsmen, should
strongly declare in favor of Mr.. Sickles OF TWEEN
ty-three, says our despatch, who were rejected
before single juror was sworn, nearly all ad-
mitted their decided bias in favor of the prisoner
and several fully justified the act" On the pre-
vious day, G. E. Kirk said his relation to the 90
cused prevented his acting the part of an unpre-
JUDGED juror-this relation simply being that he,
too, was married, as well as Mr.. Sickles.

Settlement of the Paraguay Cinims-Hoxv Ii
Was Done-What Next for Cur Pacificat-
Ing Feet!

We give in another column the important in
telligence OF the final settlement of our claims on
Paraguay, without the firing of gun. Presi-
dent Lopez has agreed to pay an indemnity to
the family of the man killed on board the Water
Witch, and to the American company of which
Mr. Hopkins was agent
This peaceful settlement of this dsagreeable
affair was brought about in no small degree
through the friendly Offices Of President Urquiza,
Of the Argentine Confederation, and it is his re-
port thereof that has given us the first knowledge
Of the facts. Bat the chief inducement to a paci.
fc arrangement was, no.doubt, the determined
manner in which Mr. Buchanan set about making
the reclamation. We gather from the report of
President Urquiza, and from advices we have
heretofore published in regard to the matter, the
following facts
When President Lopez learned the formidable
character Of the expedition sent against him be
became alarmed and sent urgent solicitations to
all the neighboring Powers to intervene 10
bis behalf In consequence of this step on his
part, both Brazil and Montevideo determined to
offer their mediation. This was declined by the
Commissioner, under his instructions from the
President, and the result was that all the neigh
boring governments sent representatives to d.
plomatic congress that was to be held somewhere
on the banks Of the Paraguay. Brazil, Montevi-
dec and the Argentine Confederation were repre-
sented, and the French Minister TO the riverine
States also proceeded to the scene. Besides this,
Lopez made an arrangement with President Ur-
quiza to come down and meet him at Corrientes,
in the Argentine Confederation, and meet the
United States Commissioner there. But the
movements Of Commodore Shubrick were too
rapid for them, and be bad got beyond Corrientes
when be met the Paraguayan Commissioners,
who wished him to return and wait for ncgod-
