seed COrn--EEOyE 10 Produce Earsy
termination.
D. W. HAZELTINE,
liz ConRedUl Reporter

If you did not as you have often been ad-
vised to do, save your seed corn by selecting
the best ears in the field, do not lose an other
day, but go to your corn cribs and pick out
the handsomest ears that you can find, aud
store them up in some dry loft, no matter if
it is very smoky one, and as hot as a July
sun, it won't hurt the vitality of the seed.
1t is of the highest Importance that your
seed should ge-maate Immediately after you
plant it. That is of more importance than
early planting. termination can undoubt-
edly be hastened 10y artificial means DIR.
Chamberlain of Burea county H., has made
some important discoveries in this direction
The Republican says;
Last year DR.. Chamberlain Of this place,
made some practical experiments, aud demon
strted that nearly half the time may be saw.
cd in terminating the seed by the use of chic
ride of lime.
Not satisfied with the success of the last
year, he is again experimenting. In his Off
ce he has four boxes; N the first is corn plan
ted without soaking, and the seed not germi-
mated; in the second, the seed was soaked in
warm water, which had just commenced to
germinate, Ia he third !. vas soaked in q
solution of lime, and green blades are Just
peeping from the grOund in the fourth is seed
soaked Ia q solution of chloride OF lime and
coPPeras, in cqaal parts, and the blades arc
now nearly three inches above ground AL
the seed we're planted at the same time in the
same quality of soil. and all taken from the
same ear.-The boxes have ali hal an equal
share of heat and light, neither allowed the
advantage over the other.
This experiment should attract the attent-
ion of farmers We conclude that from four
to six weeks may be saved by the use of chlo
ride of lime and copperas, which is matter
Of no ordinary moment when we reflect tha
delay of termination of seed of two week
frequently places the crop within the reacl
of Jack Frost in the fall.
Another fact of some importance may ais
be mentioned; The copperas used in soaking
will prevent the birds, squirrels. worms, &c
from eating the seed.
DR.. Chamberlain assures as that one poun,
ofcopperas in water, will soak enough see,
for twenty acres.-The cost will not be owe
twenty cents Every farmer could afford t
make tie experiment, even if be should fai
to derive any benefit from it.-N Y TriJ

A SWindler-Stepped Out.

A man calling himself William Hoffman,
n matchmaker by trade, came to this place, a
few weeks ago, and opened a shop for the
repairing of clocks, watches, jewelry, &C.
With a modest mien he commenced his la
bors, and having won upon the confidence OF
the credulous, was about entering upon bu-
siness as lucrative as The present war-times
would warrant. Time, however, was sadly
out of joint, but as the province was his TO
remedy the evil, the early lark and the late
owl found him at his work bench-a pattern
Of industry, and of perseverance under diff
culties. But the particular time in which
he dealt furnished the filthy lucre too slowly
and the snares of the tempter, or the desire
to relieve our citizens of an onerous burden
in shape of watch-tax, prevailed with him,
and Monday morning found him and his stock
on hand non est, while our citizens were
seen TO smile over the sorrowful countenan-
ces of the bitten or sadly mourn the bite

inches high, slimly built, has light hair. and

a high black hat. The scamp took with him
about dozen watches belonging 10 our citi-
zens. Will our brethren of the press pass
his name around.
AS our citizens have suffered similarly on a
least two previous occasions, we hope this
third time will prove the charm, and open
their eyes to that lesson of wisdom which is
learned by experience.

three times as large as the whole cost Of

weighs over six hundred tons in pure

A large proportion of this costly suf
fering might be averted by attention to

THURSDAY, AUGUST /, 1861.
@Our readers will find on the first pa g,

TOur readers will find on the first ge,
couple of very interesting narratives of the
re-capture of the schooner Sarah J. Waring
and the brig Cuba, from Jeff Davis's pirates.
The narratives prove conclusve!y that where
there is a will there is a way; and that all
that is necessary for the protection OF North
ern commerce, in addition TO what the Navy
Department is doing, is for the owners of YES
sells to ship crews Of the Strout and Tlllman
stripe. A little care in that respect would
soon make old Ocean altogether too hot for
the comfort of those chiyalrous Southern
beauties who desire to grow rich by stealing
other peoples goods. Since our last there
has been another re-capture. While JEFF.
Davs's prize crew was endeavoring to sneak
into Charleston harbor with the captured brig
Enchantress, they were overhauled by a gov
ernment man-of.wars. man. and the brig Sc
cured for her owners, and the pirates for the
gallows. Jack Ketch will have a merry time
of il before this rebellion is quelled.
