From Washington

WASHINGTON, June 2S.-Distngushed gentlemen
of both the United States and Mexico are anxious
for treaty arrangement by which the inhabitants
on both the frontiers of the two countries shall be
protected. Such proposition will doubtless soon
be submitted for Executive consideration.
1t is rumored that the treaties to be made BY
Minister Mclean will grant the right of way to the
United States the Isthmus of Tehuantepec
and from other points of Mexican territory to the
Pacific Ocean or Gulf of California the route to be
under the joint protection OF the two Governments
But it is not believed that any cession of Mexican
territories will be made or even asked.
A postal treaty with Mexico is now in the course
of arrangement in Washington. The Liberal gov
ernment had already contracted with Col. Butter
field for carrying the mails between New Orleans
or Mobile, and all the gulf ports, including that
of Sisal. Should our government acquiesce, which
is highly probable, a regular weekly steam COM
munication between the countries will be secured
Private letters have been received here from Gen
Vidaurr, dated June 22d, in which he SAYS that on
the 25th of May General Yuazua was at Leon, in
the vicinity of Guenajuato with more than six
thousand men. A skirmish had taken place at ST.
loa resulting in the defeat of the Reactionsts un
der General Meza. General Yuazua was waiting
for a brigade which had started from Morelia and
for two artillery batteries from Zacatecas in order
to attack General Noll who was from ten to twen-
ty miles distant The Liberals were confident that
they would route him, in which event they would
continue their march to the city of Mexico
The report that President Juarez has consented
to receive 5000 American troops to aid the Liberal
cause is untrue Ii is probable, however, the ser
vices of thirty or more American officers will be re-
ceiyed

and Steers farms adjoinel each other.
Sizcr had an unruly sheep, which was in
the habit Of getting into Bunce's field.
Bunce exposlulatcl with Sizcr several
times, and then told him if he did not
keep his sheep at home, he would fix
him so he wouldn't jump any more fen
ces. But Buncc soon found the sheep
back again; SO lIe caught him, and with
a knife severed the cnIicle or skin just
beyond the gambrcl joint, aud between
the main cord AMI bone. then thrust the
other hinl leg through the aperture, and
then put the sheep back over the fence,
which went of hobbling on three legs.
Sizer soon after discovered the sad
plight his sheep was in, and he knew very
well who was the cause Of it, but he con-
cluded to take things coolly, and await
some suitable opportunity TO revenge
himself.
Presently, Buncc's oil sow broke into
Steers field, when he caught her, and
with sharp knife cut her mouth almost
from car to ear, and turned her back.
When Bunce discovered this, he went
to Sizer in a great rage, AMI demanded
Of him what he did that for. Sizer SAID:
"Upon my word, neighbor Bunce, did
not do any such thing. Your old sou

Preparing Land for Wheat.

The very careless and slovenl y manner
in which land is frequently prepared for
wheat, and in which the wheat Is put In'
is one principal reason why we have so
many bad crops Of wheat, or why this
crop is not as good as it ought to be. la
order to produce good wheat crop, land
should be as well prepared as for any
other crop. In fact. every farmer in the
land should prepare his land nell for every
crop be puts in, and, even if he have to
cultivate less by it; and he will generally
find that he will make more with less la
Dor, If his subsequent cultivation is what
it ought to be, in crops where after-cul-
tivation is required But this kind Of
cultivation not being required in wheat,
the success of the crop must mainly dc
pend on the manner in which II IS put IN.
Hence the importance Of this.
Wheat we know, will generally come
much better after tobacco than any other
crop. The reason, by many, is thought
to be that the tobacco enriches the land,
or leaves in it some kind Of salts or prin-
cipie that renders it so congenial to the
production Of wheat, or any other gram
crop. Now, this may have its influence
to certain extent, but we expect that
the true reason lies not in this. That a
crop which, if continued, year after year,
in succession, will impoverish land I'M
less constantly manured, should enrich
land, is absurd. The true reason, VIC
judge, why tobacco land produces better
grain than any other soil, is owing to
two circumstances land must either be
good or made good, TO produce tobacco,
and the thorough cultivation which this
crop requires, prepares it for grain. And
this shows the importance Of manuring,
and a good preparation.
Before sowing wheat the ground should
be thoroughly broken up with the ''turn
plow," followed by the subsOil plow.-
Then SOW down the wheat and if nee
essary cross-plow with the JUH-tOngae
or cultivator; and harrow in well, so as to
sufficiently pulverize all the clods, and
cover the wheat. The practice of SOW
ing among standing corn, is miserably
bad one 1t is better to cut of the corn
first; or what is still better, to sow on
land not cultivated in corn. II sowcd
too early, or it becomes too luxuriant,
Craze with light stock, but not sufficiently
to iniure.
