THE HARVEST OF 1860.

CnItnre az Ninea.

G. S. JUNIs in the Ohio CttiUatOr, makes some
very good suggestions with reference to the cutva-
ton Of melons, squashos, cucumbers, &c. Among
watermeIons he classes first the Mountain Sweet"
and among muskmelons .'Skillmans fine Melted nut
meg" Here the substance of his teachings after
long experience:
The time is now approaching when melons OF all
kinds should be planted for the main crop. Select
piece of good rich new or sod land, more particu-
Iarly for watermelOns. Skman's fine petted melons
do very well on older land, provided 1t Is black,
good, and rich. A little compost or well rotted
manure thrown or about the HILL will often double
or treble the crop.
On good land, watermelons should not be planted
at less than ten or twelve feet asunder, each way
between the rows.
1t is gust as cheap raising good as poor melons.
Them by all MEANS procure the best seed give them
a good distance apart tend WELL and you viii have
enough for yourself and family, besides some to give
to your less Industrious neighbOrs. Skillmans fine
netted is, among the nutmeg or muskmelon family
what the Mountain sweet is among the watermelOns
the king Of all the sorts.
Mark out the rows seven feet apart, and plant
five feet between the hills. Then as soon as I'll
danger from frosts and bugs is over, thin to
three stalks in each hill, don't leave more. Tend
often and well. Suffer not a weed to grow. Poor
tillage will not produce good melons Of any
kind, much less of the finer sorts. Don't neglect
pei your sons to sneak about and steal your
more industrious and thoughtful neIghbOrs the
sin will lie at your own door, for the boys will have
them. If they can't get them at home, they will
steal them.
Of Squashes we have found the Hubbard the
best. Plant the same distance apart as for water
meons-same kind of land. Tend the same, but be
careful not to plant them together or they
will mix or spoil both.
Cucumbers too, will soon need attention; they
should be treated in all respects Skillmans fine
melted melon, but not planted snear toeach other
The Early White Spine is much the best either for
table use or for picking.
The little striped bug is the pest Of all these
vines. We know no remedy. Sitting plaster
over them while wet with dew, IS the best
but sometimes that falls and the vines are all de-
stroyed.
The pumpkin too, is getting to be worthy of
more attention especially as i. fails among corn,
except on new or sod land. As our fruits are
growing less and yet less who would not like to
have nice lot of sugar pumpkins for pies! Plant
about ten or twelve feet apart each way, on good
rich land and tend well, without any other crop
on the same ground and you may expect to be well
repaid next autumn.
The old yellOw-heshed muskmelOn together with
all the coarseP kinds Of other melons, consider
unworthy of further cultivation,

HORRIBLE ACCIDENT-A LITTLE GIRL BURNED To
DErrH-A girl about three years of age, daugh-
ter of Mira MARTHA FRENCH of Cincinnati was so
severely burned on the 2lst inst that after suffer-
inr the most terrible agony for nearly twelve
hours. she died In company with her sister, she
was plaving on the floor with some matches-her
mother at the time being temporarily absent
when they caught fire. and the flames communicate
ed bv her clothing to her body, burned her So
badly that the charred flesh fell from her bones in
many places The shrieks of the children brought
the mother to her side, but before the fire was
extinguished. she was injured beyond the hope Of
recovery.

Rings On Vines.

Every one engaged IN the cultivation Of vines suf-
fers greatly from the ravages of bugs In view Of
this fact, we reproduce the following paragraph,
published in the Herlmer q. " Journal, year or
two ago. As specific we are satisfied it must be
received with many grains of allowance. But it is
a cheap remedy, and can be tried with no cost and
very little trouble:
THE FLDER BUSH A PREVENTATIVE OF lNsEUFs-It
is not known to many persons that the common ell
der bush of our country is great safeguard against
the devastations of insects. If any will notice,
it will be found that or insects never touch
the elder This fact the initial point Of expert
ments of an Englishman, in 1894, and he cOmmuni-
Gated the results of his experiments to q London
magazine. Accident exhumed his old work, and
Kentucky correspondent last year communicated to
the Dollar Newspaper copy Of the practical results
as asserted by the English experiment er: that the
leaves of the elder scattered over cabbage, Cucum
bers squashes, and other plants subject to the raw
ages of insects effectually shield them. The plumb
and other fruits subject to the rayages of insects,
may be saved by placing on the branches and
through tie tree punches Of the elder leaves"

The State of Europe.

The annex ,tion Of Savoy and Nice to the Empire
of France does not please the legitimates of the
Continent though they are obliged to keep quiet on
the subject The Lion Of England growls rather
fercev at the want of faith on the part of our il
Iustrious ally, and hints somewhat insignifcantly
that he is not TO be too implicitly trusted hereaf-
ter" The States Of Italy are cmphatically resting
upon a slumbering volcano. The constant espionage
and oppression of their tyrant masters are goading
them to desperation. and there is no knowing when
the line of forbearance win be crossed, and the OPP
messed masses rise to execute a terrible Tetribu-
ton upon their oppressors. 1t would indeed seem
impossible that the spirit Of man could much
longer endure the degrading bondage to which
the masses have been reduced by the tyran.s
tbat now lord il over most of the States of
EuroDe. One thing is certain: tins state Of
things cannot last forever. As the feudal age and
the age Of chivalry have passed away, SO will the
present age of tyranny pass. and man viii learn to
despise the weakness which 50 long kept them from
the assertion of their rights. We believe freedom
the normal and rightful condition Of the white man.
as we think slavery the rghtful condition Of the
black, for which he was originally intended, and
where the majority Of them will ever remain
maugre all lhe hypocrisy and sentimentElity OF
Abolition demogogues Believing this, we shall
ever look forward for the day when the white race
Of Europe shall throw Of their chains and take
that stand as the solicitors of their own rulers to
which they are justly entitled. Evidences of the
coming storm are neither few nor small and the pre-
narration for the great principle. is steadily going
forward We think that a few years at most viii
witness the commencement Of a conflict in Europe
which has never been equalled, and which will
hiring about results Of vast magnitude, IN which
humanity at large is deeply interested, and by which
we trust society will be greatly benefited.

alternates are also absent Our delegation have
organized by the appointment Of Mr.. EWING, Chair
man and J. K. HOWARD, Secretary. They have Sc

MOORE.
Thecrowd is not near so large as anticipated-the
Hotel keepers have very decidedly over-reached
themselves.
There is as yet no change in the general appear
ance Of things prospective. very exciting time Is
expected. The nomination Of DOUGLAS will be re-
sisted by the South, and his Northern supporters
seem disposed to stick to him to the last 1t IS
probable that there will be a warm struggle over
the platform However, Of all these things you
viii hear by telegraph before this letter reaches
you.
JOHNSON is evidently the strong man in the North
sitter DOUGLAS. still believe his chances decidedly
good for the nomination if our delegates will only
have faith and cling to him. do not think 1t posi-
bic for Judge DOUGLAS or Mr.. HUNTER to succeed
and they are now regarded as the most prominent
men on the list Of aspirants.
