1mprOrement Of Pasture Lands

6 The first inquiry a skillful physician makes
of his patient, is: = W nat are your symptoms
Then, the peculiarities Of the constitution are
noled. and the treatment decided upon. A
quack cares little lor. symptoms. tfis puua-
cca covers every case. Buy my pills, is his
one prescription. Those who have but one
course to rccenluend lor treatment of failing
pastures, resemble the quack DOCTOR One
man insists that plUwing is the cure-all. lie
argues that the grasses run cut for want Of
seed, and he dIreeis 10 cultivate with hOe@
crops year or two, followed by winter grain
then re-secd, aud all will be right again
Rnt let him visit some sections Where natural
pastures abound, fields which have yielded lux
urient grass sioEs for scores of yedFs wit soct
the harsh surgery OF the plow, aud he will
fud his theory run out much sooner than the
grassgs. Auu,hcr authority urges the water
cure, Turn on the adjacenl stream, he says,
flood the lald rrpypclpy through the season.
and grass will grow while water runs All
very well, doubtless, in some places, on well
drained grOuDd but productive only OF coarse
rank growth uT undesirable sorts on other
soils: a few conditions sfe uecrssary FOR the
luxurieut growth Of grass; adjacent circum-
stances must determine how to secure these
conditions. THUS, the soil must be suited to
the kfnd'of grass, otherwise it viii soon run
out, and can on;y be kept by plowing and re-
seeding often. For instance, one writer says,
whoever has limestone laud, has blue grass
whoever has blue grass, has lie basis Of all
agricultural prosperity The estimate is un-
doubledly too high, but the fact of the suita'
bleness of'the lhnestone s6if't 10 blue grass, is
unquestioned and the thousands Of acres of
Kentucky and Ohio pastures pereDnialy pro.
dacIive OF this species, are evidence Of the
truth OF the statement. So then If a bloe
grass pdsture has tailed on soil qnsuited to
ils permauence, the remedy is to see with some
other variety which will be at home on that

pied by pair of barn swallows. One day last
week his servant-g girl left piece Of red ribbon
on the sill of window which was open, and
during her absence from the room few min.
uIes it mysteriously disappeared aud could not
be found. In the course Of the day it was
discovered waving from one OF the upper win
dsws of the blrd-houss, making quite a res
Pectabe looking flag for such an establish
menl and It's occupants. Not much was thought
the Of Circumstance. and when evening came
the flag or ribbon had disappeared. This could
be accounted for by supposing that il had
blown away; but on the flag re-appesrine
the next morning curiosity was excited. and {
watch established the iaet that the birds PulleC
the flag into the house every evening and pu
it out every morning. Several persons hav'
Witnessed the operation. How the birds hav'

WHAT 10 GENTLEMAN 1T appears from
Mr.. RUsselrs late letter in the London Times
that the traitors, with whom he eonVerGed at
the South, claimed for themselves and their
associates, exclusively, the spPellation Of gen.
tlsmen.
Nothing can vary more strangely than the
standard in different localities by which the
important question is decided, who 10 a gen.
tleman and who is not. Let US illustrate:
Very many years ago, brother of our, utter.
ly disgusted with the airs and arrogance Of his
English servant-.such a one punch desg.
mates by the non de guerre Of John ThOmGs--
resolved to make trial of native. He advsr-
tised-" one from the country Oonld be pre-
ferred" Shortly after, Elnathan DoIy pro.
'sed, and was accepted. One morning he
CINE into the parloT with "a feller's out to
the front door and wants you to come out"
"Whst sort of fellow is he T." Wall he's a
stoutish sort of fellow"
Our good brother, who had been expecting q
man to repair the pump, directed eInathan tc
ask the fellow to 60 round TO the back yard
Elnathan soon returned, and said-"the felIeI
larfed right out and says he'll see you hanged
irst." Our brother went instantly TO the door
and there found his friend, the late Col. T. II
Perkins. who. supposng the request to 60 tc
the back yard to be sent in jest, he replied to il
| in kind.
EInathsn was rsprimanded, Of course, and
directed to bring no more messages about JsH
ers. He was almost as literal and unpoetcal
Rs CowpeT's translation of Homer and, in les
| tuan a week, he came in, and announced thG
fact that two gentlemen had come TO sweeI
the kitchen chimney.

Diarrhea and Dysentery! a RsPulse and

of individuals similarly afflicted in the onset
Of battle. Indeed, medical writer's assure US
that it is sometimes a consequence of sudden

But we do not mean to indulge in a dsguo-
sis of this remarkable disease. 1t is certainly
unfortunate for US that General Pierce should
not have been permitted to fully recover from
it before he was entrusted with the command
of the Great Bethel expedition; and it was per-
hsps equally unfortunate for the poor rebels,
that General Price should have been attacked
with this official diarrhea jus. when they most
needed his services. We merely wish to sug.
