"Harpers Weekly" publication whose sympa.
thies all with the opponents of the Democracy
says"
The above is remark of the Bellows
Falls Argus introducing a quotation from
Harper's Weekly, the purport OF which is
that "a large section of the people of this
country" the Southern section. of course
will hold ''the leading Republican politi-
clans and papers, responsible for the act of
John Brown and his associates, although
they say they know nothing of it, and re-
pudiate it, &c The Argus could not be con-
tent with mis-representing Harper's Weekly,
"a publication VIGOROUSLY democratic and
pro-slauery in its sympathies, but in It's zeal
for false accusation it re-vamps the stupid
Forbes lie about Senator Seward and adds to
it characteristic garnishng of its own, as
follows:
1.-THE statement of Forbes that he explain
ed fully the whole matter to Senator Seward,
who expressed regret that he had been told
of it, makes that gentleman morally respOn-
sible for the acts of these "madmen" whose
madness he has in no wise attempted to re-
strain, but, on the contrary, has urged on
by his incendary speeches.
The Argus is an open-mouthed advocate
of slavery in the United States-as much so
as the Charleston Mercury, the New York
Daybook, or any other prOslavery paper OF
the EXTREMIST sort. In proportion to its abb
lily, no paper that we see is more thorough
going in misstating facts to uphold its own
doctrines, and in misrepresenting the senti-
ments and actions of Northern men of more
humane and generous principles than ever
entered into the heart of its editor.
We suppose he must get his reward from
Washington. We should be sorry to believe
that there is a community in Vermont de-
generate enough to make such officiating
profitable

GRAINS OF CoRN.-T C. Peters of Darien,
n. Y, says that four times as much stock
can be wintered on an acre of corn and
stalks, cut, ground, and mixed, as upon an
acre of hay, and that it is bad economy to
raise hay for stock upon land that will pro-
duce corn. One our most successful dairy
men, who soils his cows largely on green
corn stalks, thinks corn the most profitable
crop he can grow. Corn that produced 80
bushels per acre, also yielded in a given case
two tons of stalks Fifty bushels of corn
and $50 bushels turnips have been grown,
in one year, on an acre of land, in Chicopee.
The corn rows were four feet apart, and the
turnips sown broadcast between. Eight
bushels of turnlps are equivalent to bashel
of corn. Corn stalks and straw often winter
stock well without hay. Corn stalks are
by some believed to increase the quantity and
color of butter and milk Corn fed to cattle
at night digests as though ground into meal

of birds in our market as on Saturday. There
were many varieties, robins, skylarks, par
tridges, WOODLANDS, woodcocks, killdees,
blackbirds, &c. 1t is stated as fact. that
the robins were sold by the bushel in our
market on Saturday-price 81. We have
never known this to be the case before, here
or elsewhere
And we should hope it would never be
the case again. Robins by the bushel But

THE MEDICAL STUDENTs.-The Phila lei
phia BulleIin says that between thirty and
forty of the Southern medical students who
left the medical school Tor the South have
returned, being satisfied on calm reflection
that they had made fools of themselves. In
this connection the Bulletin tells the follow
ing story
- certain Southern city (Richmond),
which boasts of young and not very deserv-
ING or profitable medical college, was anxious
to take advantage of the ebullition in the
Philadelphia colleges and secure 4 share of
the students that left them. 4 sGm Of five
thousand dollars was appropriated by the
City Council to detray the expenses OF those
that would 90 to the college in question.
This sum was placed in the hands of young
Southerner. who Immediately advertised in a
Philadelphia morning paper most enthusl-
astic bat not very well written appeal to the
Southern students, inviting them to call on
him. We understand that he received
good many calls from enthusiastic Southern
ers, some IF whom were students, and he
furnished some Of them with funds sufficient
to nav their bills here and their travelling
expenses. 70 one person, VINO represented
that he came on behalf of large number of
students that wanted to 90 South, he gave
nearly half of the five thousand dollar apPro-
priation. All the young men thus provided
were to meet hiu at the Baltimore Railroad
station ut certain hour on a certain day,
and they were to proceed together proudly
to their native sunny South, as he poetl-
cally and originally described 1t. The dis
burser of the five thousand went to the station
exulung, but not one of his friends join d
him. lie waited till the last moment, when
it flashed upon him that he had been cruelty
sold, and getting into a dark corner of a car,
he started for home, a wiser though much
poorer man."

WASHINGTON, Jan. IL.
The Southern party is becoming more and
more disorganized daily, if possible, and a
few more such speeches as were made yester-
dav bv Lceke, Wright, and Gartrell, would
necessarily drive from 1t all its Northern ad-
berents. Southern men no longer call them
selves Democrats. They deny that they are
in that organization. They are distlnctivey
Southern men first, and Democrats after
wards. if the Democratic party will suffer
itself TO be used to carry out the purposes of
the South. If not, why then they do not
care fg for Democracy. Mr.. Leake de-
clared to-day openly, boldly, and without
qualification. the belief OF the Virginia dele
cation (and that that deleg .ton represented

THE ORGANS OF THE PATRIOT.

The Vermont Patrlot draws it very mild on
the Presidents Message. Ten lines contain
it's entire comment. Here it is
1.-THE Message seems to be well written. o {
respectable length, and generally acceptable
to the party. With that portion Of the
document, however, which relates to Slavery
in the Territories, we suppose very few Nor
thern democrats will not feel Obliged to diff
fer, as not being in harmony with the Gin
cinnati Platform, or, indeed, with the letters
and professions Of the President himself, be-
fore his election
So much, Mr.. Buchanan, for turning the
editor of the Patriot away from the public
crib. Had you let him hold on YOU would
have been spared the charge Of turning your
back on the professions which gave you the
Northerr Democratic vote and you would
have no such lamentations over the decadence
of the Democratic party in Vermont, as we
find the last number of that paper.
The tone of the editors lament and the
way In which family secrets are blurted out
in the midst of it Is quite funny. His spe-
cial grief rests on the ugly fact that repu5-
,o0n newspapers are so rapidly driving the
democratic ones out Of TIE State. Formerly"
it says, "the leading democrats of the towns
used to see that some democratic paper
printed in the State was taken and paid for
by every democrat in town who was able to
do it-but now, who cares -? If any body
happens to take a democratic newspaper,
why, he does. Now if the democratic
party in Vermont are dead up to their waist
bands; if they are prepared to give up the
ghost and become extinct, they are all
right"
Dead dO,rn 10 their Wristbands would have
hit the case nearer.
