~ Two thousand German women made a
very extraordinary gathering at St. Louis on
Wednesday evening. They met to concert ac-
lion and memorabilia government for the pay
of their husbands now in the Federal service.
The meeting was as quiet and orderly as could
have been expected under the circumstances,
and a monster petition, to be signed by all, was
prepared to be sent to Gen. HalIeck. The whole
matter is one that certainly deserves instant
attention. The Missouri Democrat, Of the Both
ult, says
The appearance of many Of the women left no
room for doubt as 20 the truth of what the above
petition sets forth, and unless relief is speedily
offered, there viii be great suffering during the
winter among the poorer families Of the German
volunteers.

CorruN SEED FOR HOGS-We aye informed
that an intelligent planter of this county has
tried the experiment of feeding his hogs on cot
tom seed. and has been successful. lie com
menced last December feeding thus, and so con-
tinued until after harvest, and then turned the
hoes into the f Ids. They fed the whole time,
except when in the fields, on the seed. His
method of preparing the food, was to boil the
seed uutilo of % soft natUrc-eaSIy MASKING when
pressed between the fingers. Let it stand @5
hours after boiling, and then 10 is ready to be
put in the trough for feeding He tried the ex-
p~erilnent this year for the first time, and, al
though an old plaute-. has now as good OF per
haps better, hogs than he ever raised before.
We would simply call attention to thus reit-
Grating the fact that this planter mas been
successful II hogs can be raised on cotton
seed. we do not see why the cotton States can
not make their own bacon, Tor there are thous-
auds of seed on every plantation that cannot be
worth to Inc planter more than fifteen 20 twenty
five cents per bushrl, but when turned into
Macon would be worth thrice that amount.
The pIspter to whom we have referred, used
mo- corn. except when he put up his hogs to
fafteu and Kill.
What do our planting friends think Of the
matter Is it not worth trying l-SJutssrH
