Soaking Seeds Before Sowing.

"This practice" SAYS the Country Gentle
man, sis not SO extensively adopted In this
country as it might be with advantage, both
for the farm and garden. In this respect vs
are far behind people whom We are apt to
regard with feelings nearly approaching to
contempt. There are few probably, in Eng
land or this country, who are disposed to
think themselves much inferior to the Chr
nese, and vet in one respect, at least, Ne
think they are much in advance Of most FAR
mers in either England or America. Liebig
states in his Letters on Modern Agricul-
ture," that no Chinese farmer sows seed
before it has been soaked in liquid manure,
diluted with water, and has begun to germi-
nate; and that experience has taught him
that this operation tends not onlyto promote
the more rap;o ard vigorous growth and de-
velopment of the plant, but also to protect
the seed from the ravages Of worms and in
sec,s. There would not only be some troub-
lie, but some iuconyeniencies also in the adop-
ton of this practice on an extensive scale
but we are pretty confident Notwithstanding,
that those who commence it on small scale
will find it productive Of advantage enough
to induce them to extend operations. We
may suggest that on more than one occasion
We have been informed by one of our sorres-
pondents that he makes much use Of hen
manure in water, as a soak for his seeds"

EF- The Independent sa, that South
ern trader came to his city to TO very rare
thing-:o pay cash for his entire purchases.
Determined not to buy Of any man who was
not true to the South, he vent to the store
of --, aud said Are YOU an a5oliiion-
list? If you are l will ro. buy Of YOU" The
reply was "Yes-i am an aboli,ionist. for al
though would like to trade with you, cam
not deny my principles. The Southerner
next went to the store Cf -, who was
an officer of an an'i-slavery society. The
same question was put to him, and the re-
ply was, why, aye, no. don't like all The
aboli,ionists do" Next he went TO the store
of -, a well known anti-slavery man,
and propounded the same question to him.
This merchant, with rare selfpossession ard
Attic wit, replied. Il should like to ask you
question or two in my turn-are you close
communion Baptist ?" The Southerner was
surprised. and said. What if am?' He
was answered, "Why, in that case, cannot
sell YOU any goods. not even for cash" At
ter pricing goods in the market. the South
erner returned to this store and made his
purchases. On settling his bill he was in
quisitive 10 know why Mr. -- would not
sell goods for cash even, to close communion
Baptists. Mr.. -- laughed and said, Il
have no prejudice against them or any other
sect. but YOU asked me foolish question,
and replied by asking YOU another-that's
all"

PREPARED FOR ACClDENTs.-A gentleman
in this city who takes an occasional drive
with his family, always goes provided with
powder and ball to shoot his horse in the e.
vent of a runaway. This is singular, but
certainly very wise precaution. He got
the idea from a gentleman residing a few
miles oct o: New York. who driving home
one summer night, with his wife and child
ren in The carriage, was placed in imminent
danger by an unmanageable horse which had
taken fright at lantern on the road side
In attempting to hold the atfrighted animal
the lines broke and the horse dashed on at a
hreakneck speed. Fortunately the gentle
man bcthought himself of revolver in his
side pocket, and drawing it shot the animal
tLroug gh the head. The animal staggered
and fell. The occupants of the carriage were
thrown out, but escaped serious ipjury.-La

perate peril in which his party was placed,
took single dog which had accompanied
the party, fastened to his collar note wri,
ten with pencil, informing the commander
at the for, Of his situation, took a tin cup in
which he put some pebbles, which were con-
fined with piece of cloth over the top, fas-

glsaE cs,waNG CONVENTION.

We have d few words of friendly counsel to give
to tbs sscoaperatopists, sssuhmissionists Unions
atanY- price, gentlemen, or those who prefer wait
ing for an overt act, from Lincoln to striking for
their honor and liberties at the present moment,
of this fair city Of New Orleans. They may heed
IT or not Just they please and as 1t is their right
and If they become offended we cannot prevent it
but shall have the satisfaction of knowing that We
hare performed our duty honestly and faithfully.
We warn these gentlemen against attempting to
place New Orleans in false position. We say at
tempt, for We are confident they cannot succeed,
but even The effort viii be fraught with injurious
consequences, while success would be disastrous
To tic city and At the same time be Of no earthly
use 10 them, 10 far as the carrying out Of their
ideas il concerned.
Ii the snhmissionists 81 Union men should carry
every Representative District in the city their sue
cess would not benefit their cause in the smallest
degree, and would only eyentuate in damage to
the metropolis, by arousing permanent and uncon-
trollable prejudices against u.s. The people of the
country are largely in the majority. They will
govern; and their determination to secede will be
found as irresistible as the current of the Mssis
sippi. They will dictate the mode and manner of
secession, and will compel implicit obedience to
their mandates. Consequently, should submission
influence prevail in New Orleans, it can accom-
plish no object save that Of stimulating lasting an
tipathiea. Cities are but the creatures Of the
country. They derive all their Importance and
wealth from the country The power that made
them can unmake them. Countries can be great,
prosperous and rich without cities, but cities can
not exist without countries. Cities have been
ruined irretrieyably by acting in such manner as
to prejudice the country from which they obtained
their sustensnce, against them Shall this be the
fate of New Orleans? There would be no New
Orleans without the patronage of the States that
are going to secede just so sure as the sun will
ever rise again. Shall the nickname of "a South
Boston, = which has been applied to New Orleans
in the country, for years, receive additional con
firmation on the 7th Of January next2 We hope
not. II so the results may be deplorable to Us in
every conceivable respect,
A submission vote will not help the submission
ists nor stop the progress Of the secession cause
hnt Il will prejudice the country bitterly against
the city.
For these reasons, not to speak of many others
which could easily be brought forward, we invoke
the Union or submission men of New Orleans not
to follow which. while it will be barren Of
results to themselves must work injury to the city
In our opinion, they have no chance of succeeding
here, while their prospects in the country are hope
less, but even the effort to succeed will prove
detrimental
