ssAn AsoItkion Measure.

Senator Wigiall; Of Texas, made violent
speech in the Senate the other day In opposi
tior to tie Homestead bill. The Senator de-
clared that it was "UIc abolition measure
uhich ought NOT to PASS U1de1 eng considcra-
ton" he said that it would ill up our ter
ritores with class IF men who are tco lazy
to earn their own living, but, said our Sena-
tor, if in addition 10 giving "iandS for The
tandlcsS, ycu add niggers for the mtggeriess,

ure intended to beuetit the white laboriug men
of the country, eau pass the democratic Sen
ate of the United States, unless it coniers
equal benefits upon Southern slave holders and
their tiggers.
Now this Senator Wigfall represents a
State four times as large as Ohio, with a
population about equal to that Of Ham ilton
county. When Texas was admitted into the
Union, her debt was enormous, amounting TO
many millions but, in consequence of her at
tachment to slavery, democratic administra-
ZION stepped forward and assumed its payment
and, in addition gave to the young member OF
the eontederacy, all the unoccupied land with
in her borders, and tea millions of dollars be-
sides for pocket nioney--the Interest of which
pays the expenses o. the State Government
But let laboring men take courage. The
power of the Southern oligarehy is passing
away. The Honiestead bill may not be pass
ed by the present Congress, but it will be by

Important Decision on tbe Slave
Trade.


Judge Megrath has decided that the trial OF
Captain Corrie, in the yAcht WarAerer, can.
not be renewed in Georgia, the South Carolina
Courts having exclusive Jurisdiction in tue
case. A special dispatch TO the Boston Her
aid says tl,Gt the Judge ruled that il is not the
slave trade. /. E., the tlt ,spnrtation Of negroes
from Africa TO this country, but the stealing OF
negroes on foreign shores and landing them as
slaves in the United States, which is declared
pirac9 b. the act OF May 18TH 1870"
If We understand this language, it implies
that conviction cannot take place against any
persons engaged in the slave trade unless it can
can be proved that they joined in the kidnap-
ping of the negroes on the African coast,
transported them across the ocean, and actually
landed their in the United States, with Tie III
tention Of selling them into bondage. Ii is not
enough that the vessels be fitted up especially
for that description Of commerce ;" that hun
dreds OF WI; ;tched creatures be found on board,
perhaps i'll chains, with every appearance of
being landed for the slave market. The dis
covcry Of stolen goods in their possession can
no longer convict these traders, unles they shall
have been caught in the verf uct of stealing,
anu alteI" "dleN vi oiIESlAS IHCul iltO HldIFCI.
II such be thu decision rendered. it virtually
removes every obstacle to the re-opening of the
African slave trade in all its magnitude and
urbanity. Were a man-ofwar stationed at the
mouth Of every creek i'll tie entife African
coast, its presence would be utterly useless
Possibly the telegraph may have erred-for
the sake of humanity we trust it has ; bat after
the strides which slavery has made in our ma
tional courts during the last few years, the pub
lie must be prepared for decisions the Most alb
horrent to the spirit of our Iaws.-N. 7. Post

Watering Honse-ftanfs.

Water is often very injudiciously applied to
plants in rooms, and the evil arises from fall
ing into the opposite extremes of too much
and too little. Fear of spelling the carpet
forgetfuness. and sometimes fear of injuriDg
The plant, are the chief causes of an under
supply of water On the Utlier hand, many
have ii notion that such plants should be wa
tered every day, or at stated periods, without
inquiring whether it be necessary or not
Saucers or pans are often placed under flower
pots, to prevent the water Which escapes from
soiling the apartment but in these cases the
saucers should be partly filled with gravel, to
prevent the roots from being soaked with wa
ter, or else the water which lodges in the sau-
Get should be removed.

Raising Potatoes Under Straw.


Some of our correspondents. within year,
have spoken fayorably Of the practice of plan
ting potatoes and covering them with straw,
both as less laberious and more profitable
method of raising the crop. The idea is not
new one to US AS long ago as 1924, We
saw this methed practiced in Vermont and it
was reported highly successful, but for some
reason it has not come into general use. The
experiments we tried were by selecting short
pasture field, dropping the seed at suitabie dis
tances over the ground, and then covering the
whole with a coat Of straw TO the depth of a
foot or more. In the fall the straw was raked
off, and the potatoes picked up, all dry. In
wet seasons this plan was thought 10 be very
effective. The editor of the Pike county Ill.)
Free Press, has been presented with potatoes
raised the last season, by a Mr.. Shipman of
| that vicinity, and details as follows:
Mr.. Shipman informed Us that he planted
| them IN the usual manner, then covered them
to the depth of about six inches with straw ;
after this no further cultivation was required
the straw kept down the weeds and the po-
tatoes were not disturbed until they were dug.
Not only has this method produced him a very
superior potatoe, but has this year produeed
him an extraordinary yield-four bushels to
the square rod, or at the rate of $40 bushels to
the acre.
Early in april he planted Meshannocks in
both ways and pinkeyes under the straw all
were in the same kind of ea1und. The Me
shannocks cultivated yielded TWO bushels and
one peck to the square rod those covered
with straw, four bushels and ono peck, atd
the pinkeyes, covered four bushels. Pinkeyes
planted on the Z4th of May. covered with
straw yielded two and a half bushels and four
quarts to the square rod. They were the small
lest potatoes
Pinkeye5 planted abont the 1st of .tune,
covered with straw, brought two bushels and
one quart 10 the square rod. These although
the smallest yield were the largest pota' oes
and of the best quality.-Worcester Palladl-
