SARDINIA.-GE0GRAPHICAL

Perhaps, no portion of the earth posses
ses more of interest st the prsent time than
Southern Europe. And, when we remem-
Der that for ages, an almost constant strug-
gle has been going on there, between the
minions of oppression and the spirit of
liberty, it is natural that VIC, as Americans,
should seek to inform ourselves, as to the
relative strength and facilities of the con-
tending powers. as well as of the merit and
demerit Of their respective causes. To aid
the general reader, somewhat in the inves-
tigation of these topics, shall be the object
of this and the following papers.

projecting from the south of Europe. and

TIMOTHY GRASS, AND THE BEST
TIME FOR CUTTING IT.

This grass (P5leun l'ratease,) so uni
versally knOfsn and highly valued by Amer
lean agriculturists, was originally introduc-
ed into the country by Timothy Hanson, of
Maryland, from whom it derives It's name.
1t is known as catstail in England, and
herdsgrass in the New England States
1t is also favorite grass in Sweden, where
it is extensively cultivated. 1t is peren-
NAL. bulbous-rooted plant: the leaves are
broader than most other grasses, and rough,
with long sheaths. In the carly stages of
its growth, it resembles a diminutive plant
of Indian corn; stalk long and jointed, sur
mounted when mature by long, hairy
spikelet containing the seed.
The first year after sowing the seed, the
young plants consist of single bulbs, scat
tered over the surface of the ground at con-
siderable intervals, and blossoming. In
the spring Of the second year the plant
throws out number of new bulbs, in a
similar manner to the potato onion. These
blossom and produce seed, bat very une-
qually. Each succeeding plant throws ont
others again the following spring, TIL after
three or four years we find that the original
single bulb is surrounded by large stool
of plants, several inches in dianeter. We
counted seventy-six bulbs in one stool, sup
posed to be three years from the seed
The plants at this age are in their PRIME
and produce the heaviest crops of hay
Two years after the plant has thrown out
the new bulbs and given them fair start,
it shrinks up and dies, the bulb still re-
naming in the stool, but becoming hard
and hOry. If during the early stages of
its growth in the spring, while the new
bulls are forming, tie plant is cut, or eaten
c,Ose by animals, the bulb either dies, or
carries on struggling existence through
the summer; the young bulbs are not pro-
pcrly developed, and the vital power of the
whole stool of plants becomes so exhausted
that the dry weather of autumn or the frosts
of winter soon Kill them.
As a meadow grass to cut for hay, timo-
thy is unsurpassed by any other grass now
cultivated. 1t possesses large amount of
nutritious matter, in comparison with other
natural grasses 1t has been general
practice among farmers to grow timothy
along with clover: but the clover blossoms
two weeks earlier, and the practice is now
being discontinued, except where the large
or late variety of clover can be obtained
Considerable discussion has been going
on of late, among agrieulturists. as to the
proper time for cutting timothy for hay
Most farmers prefer to cut it when it is full
blown, and say that it is swecter, and con-
tains more nourishment at this time. 9th
ers, again, believe that.if moving is perform
med before the seed is fully developed, the
will run out, from failure toreseed the plant

1t is a question whether the consumption
of liquids is beneficial or injurious On the
one hand. it is certain that the introduction
of liquids into the system promotes perspi-
ration: but on the other, it seems equally
certain that those who pcrsrire the most
suffer least from the heat.
A few points may be laid down. The
man who, on a hot day. yields to the thirst
which heat creates, and drinks before noon,
will be troubled with thirst till evening;
while he who abstains from liquids till two
o'clock, will not need them at all. And it
is, in any case, fatal to drink spirituous liq-
uors 1t is known that habitual consumer
of ardent spirits viii be able to sit cOmfor
tably. in winter. in room where 4 temper
ate man would almost freeze. For the
same reason the habitual ''drinker" of az
dent spirits will suffer acutely from heat
when the abstcmious man will not feel any
inconvenience. In hot weather clarct and
water is the most intoxicating beverage
which a man should venture to tate. He
might as well spend an hour Or two in a
steamers fire room as taste brandy or whis-
Ky.
After all, the best preventive against suf-
fcring from excessive heat IS constant occu
patton of the mind. People have an idea
that heat is enervating. Yet almost all the
great exploits of which mankind boast have
been performed under scorching sun; all
the great battles have been fought in the
dog days; at no season has the human in
tellect bcen so vigorous as when the heat
was ferecst. There is nothing enervating
in heat to those who do not desire to be en-
ervated. And the best of all ways to defy
the suns power is TO devote ones mind with
renewed energy to some particular pursuit.
Ardent labor and unrcmitting attention to
one particular task, divert the mind from
the minor concern of the temperature. The
industrious man wonders, Of an evening
when he hears that the weather has been

the subject never occurred to him. It's the

those of the Alps, whilst the central portion
embraced within the valley of the Po. This
valley is more fertile than any other part
of Europe of equal extent, and is in very
fair state of cultivation. In the mountain
districts the rearing of cattle forms the CHIEF
branch Of.industry. The production of silk
is also carried on to considerable extent
The vine and various kinds of southern
fruits, are extensively cultivated.
The island of Sardinia, situated in the
Mediterranean south of Corsica, forms part
of the kingdom. The surface is rough and
uneven. but very fertile, such indeed, is its
reputed fertility, that We arc informed by
history that the Carthaginians, who early
become masters of it, derived therefrom a
large part of the provisions consumed by
their Armies
The Kingdom is divided into fourteen
administrative divisions. The government
is limited, hereditary monarchy. The
legislature consists of two branches, whilst
the Judiciary is vested in four superior
courts.
Much attention is given to the subject of
education. District and secondary schools
are established throughout the kingdom.
The latter alone, are regularly attended by
upwards of $1,000 youths. There are also
four Universities having an attendance of
over 5000. The University of Turin was
established in l405, and is the most re-
nowned in Italy. 1t has library of Il2,-
600 volums of books, and 1000 choice man.
