SrSATE.-Mr. Hunter again novel to
take up the consular and Diplomatic Ap-
preparation bill.
MIR. Stuart demonstrated against this
crowding off the Homestead by an ap-
preparation bill, which was sure to pass.
Some time was occupied in arranging the
precedence of business.
Mr.. Seward urged vote on the Home
steal bill, as measure that would settle
definitely the policy with regard to the
public lands, and would reserve them from
being held by spectators and capitalists
to the dctriment of the interests oe labor
The vote on Mr. Hunters motion to
postpone the homestead bill and take up the
Consular and Diplomatic Appropriation
bill, was % to %, when the Vice Pres
i'lens gave the casting vote in favor of the
latter.
HousE.-Mr. English called up the bill
regulating the postage on newspapers and
periodicals. He said it had been report
ed extensively through the press that this
bill proposed to tax newspapers passing in
exchange; this was not the fact. The de-
sign was that periodical dealers shall re-
ccive their mail matter on the same terms
as regular subscribers. Another section
authorized maps and Autographs to be car
ried at one Gent per ounce or fraction of an
ounce. Heretofore such matter has been
excluded frnm the mails. The third sec
tion proposes to punish persons taking
letters ont Of the Office by mistake but will
fully or frauduently ncglecting to return
them. Also. persons who in like manner
failed to apply money handed them for the
pre- payment Of postage. etc. There is Mt
present no adequate law to pnnisk 3 such Of
fences. The bill proposes a fine Of 800
or one years Imprisonment, or both. The
bill was passed. ~
Mr.. English made an Intellectual effort
to consider the bill to abolish the frank
ing privilege.
Mr.. Colfax stated that by the phraseol-
ogy Of one section of the bill. every news
paper publisher would be compelled to pre-
pay the postage on his entire circulation

Hungarian Grass Seed having lately at
tracted considerable attention in our pro-
duco market, the following article. from
the February number OF he Valley Farmer,
will doubtless be interesting to MANY of our
readers:
The Hungarian Grass" very nearly
resembles the common millet, and re-
quires the same culture. 1t has gained
great notoriety upon the Western prairics,
where it appears mnch better adapted than
to the the ordinary farm lands OF kentucky
and other States. 1t resists drouth to
an extraordinary degree. and upon the
porous praric lands it threatens to almos:
entirely snperccde timothy. In other
States in the Union, and even in its native
country Panicuas Germaaicum or lIunga-
rian Grass. is not SO highly appreciated.
The usual practice in the West, with this

a crop of Hay at the same tiu,e, and the
consequence is both are inferior. When

sown to the acre. say eight quarts, either
broadcast, or what is, better, drilled in

I'm thinking on thy smile, Mary
Thy bright and trusting smile

And mine eyes looked into thine.

Was nesting close to mno.

On.young lips bcaming bright:
Aud many an eye Of light ami love

But the smile is not for my poor heart,
And the eye il strange to me,
+ And loneliness comes o or nv soul,
When its memory turns TO thee!
I'm thinking on the night, Mary,
The night of grief and shame,
When with drunken rawlings on my lips,

And thv bosom.wi,dly heaved,
Yet smile ofl was on thy check,
Though thy heart was sorcly gricred.
But the smile soon left thy lips, Mary,
And thine eve grew dim and sad,
For the tempter lurcd my steps from thee,
And the wine cup drove me mad;
From thy checks the roses quickly fled,
And thy ringing laugh was Sone,
Yet thy heart still ciung to me,
And still kept trusting on.
o, nv words were harsh to tbcc, M,ry,
For the winc-cuo m1ed mo wild;
And ] child thee when thine cycs were sad,
And cursed thee when they smiled:--
