Senator Douglas has written an article in Har.
2er's Monthly on THE Dividing Line between
. Federal and Local Acknowledgements Sow
ereignty in the Territories" 1t is an elaborate
defense Of his ideas upon the question of Slavery in
the Territories He contends, as he has always
done. that Congress has no authority over the sub
Ject; but that it belongs exclusively to the people
Of the Territories; and, as be has always DONE he
carefully avoids stating who constitute the people,
and by what means their respective rights to
be determined. The essay is about up to the average
of Dir. Douglass speeches; though its ideas are
not new, the manner of putting them is shrewd; but
we are prohibited by copyright from copying the
article, and are accordingly unable to give our
readers any specimens of its quality This mode of
legally limiting the circulation of political speeches
is at least novelty; whether it is the work of the
author or of the publishers is not stated.

Lieut. Ives, architect and engineer in charge Of the
Washington Monument, has made an official report to
the Society in which he says That when raised TO the
hight of 0ee the entire weight Of the shaft and found
son will be 90 600 tuns. The weight Of the structure
in its present condition. is 10000 tuus. He has been
unable TO detect any appearances Of settling or ntca-
fiOns of insecurity. BY scientific calculations he has
arrived at the conclusion that the weight alone of the
Monument at lis full hight, would offer resistance
nearly eight times greater than the overturniDg effort
of the heaviest tempest to which 1t would probably
ever be exposed.
1t was proposed to the Monument Society, many
years ago. to surround the foot Of the Obelsk with
base Of Pantheon form, aud an engraving was made
of the Monument as II would appear II completed IN
accordance with that plan. An impression has been
this way created throughout the country that the
engraved design has been adopted and os1no' now
already built But as II has not been the Intention OF
the Society TO accept the plan referred TO- ana as the
error which exists seems to have an luxurious effect
Lieut. Ives suggests the expediency OF notifying the
public officially that the obelisk the only portion OF
the Monument the form of which is decided upon, ana
fiat the determination of the design for the base s
still open for consideration. In this suggestion OF
Lieut. Ives the Society has cOncuned.

The Farmers Pest.

Weeds, it should be recollected, are always
more exhausting to the soil than either roots
or grain crops. They are Indigenous, conse-
quently gross feeders, and abstract from the
soil only those elements Of fertility which are
indispensably requisite to sustain the more
valuable and cultivated crops Itshould ever
be a rule with the farmer to allow no plant to
perfect its seed on his premises, that will, in
any way diminish the productivenesss of his
soil. There are many weeds which, If cut
close to the soil, while in infiorescence. inevi-
tably die, and Others if so treated, will not
start again till the following year. or, if they
do it will be very feebly, and with SO little Wig
or that they will effect but little injury, COM
paratively speaking, and without any posi-
bility Of producing seed. Mullen, thistles,
burdocks, and many other noxious productions
of a similar class. may be eradicated by placing
table spoonful of salt upon the stump Of
each plant after cutting it. When these
weeds are I'm force,' we have frequently found
it profitable to SOW salt freely after moving,
as the exuding fluids of the roots dissolve it
and of course take portion of it into their
vessels, where it acts as a most efficient des-
troyer If field infested with thistles be
moved down when the thistIes are in full
bloom, and salt, say two bushels to the acre,
be sown upon the stumps, and sheep permit
ted to Craze upon the enclosure, it is said that
the thistles will be at once destroyed. This is
perhaps more economical methed of eradica-
ton than removing the plants by the roots
which is tedious, expensive, and but seldom
effectual- Maine Farmer

2. If you have not yet procured young trees
for that orchard or fruit garden, do it imme-
diately; for in this case the maxim of First
come, first served, is good, and early appli-
cants have the choice of the nusery row. Do
not select large specimens-it is enough if
they are healthy, with good growth and fine
fibrous roots. All adopts prefer young speci-
mems, and leave the old one to the tyros.-
Apple trees should be from two to three years
from the buds, pears the same, and peaches
not more than one year. We would prefer
two year olds to threes they grow better
and are easier transplanted
3. Manure old orchards and even Younger
ones. Use bone-dust if you have it. If that
cannot be obtained, gather all the old bones
about the place, break them up or burn them,
and apply broadcast. Burning, however, re-
moves large amont of valuable matter, and
is only better than throwing away the bones.
Pears need this bone-dust more than any
other fruit tree. Lime and barn-yard manure
should also be applied, especially to orchards

many of our orchards are starved, lisa discred-
