SELLING Girls AT Auction IN GERMANY.
= A foreign correspondent, writing from
Germany, says: 1.-The auction of dancers
at village is curious affair. The girls
are assembled on an open space, generally in
front Of the burgomaster's house of bust
uess, and an auctioneer having been chosen
among the young men, generally wag 10

Kirchin, and all the other chens Ian endear.
ing diminutive by which the lasses are
styled), are called out, and the auction for
the dancer proceeds, which gives the high
est bidder the sole right over her hand for
the year, ct all the fete dances and reioic-
ings, and they are not few. 1t is gener-
ally an understood thing that it is akin to
declaration, but still is not any way binding.
OF coursethere are struggles and conpeti-
ton for the prettiest, but she falls 10 the rich
est. The cash goes to pay musicians and o
spread or two, and if anything is over it is
given to the church."
To CLEAN PA1Xr-Smear piece of fan
mel in common whiting, mixed to the consis-
tehcy Of common paste, in warm water
Rub the surface to he cleaned quite briskly,
and wash of with pure cold water. Grease
spots in this way will be almost instantly
removed, as well as other filth, aud the
paint wilretain its brilliancy and beauty

RGrM Mr.. Bryant, Of the New York Post,
has been visiting the Winau's steamer at
Baltimore, and says as he looked on the
enormous. iron shuttle, the velocity Of
which can be scarcely more effected by
storms and head winds than that Of q fish,
and thought Of it darting through the sea
with the speed which is sclaimed for it, it oc.
CURED to him that if sailing vessel should
come in its way it must be pierced through
like pine shingle by bullet
p9 The most dangerousmoderen witches,
however, are young ladies Of sweet sixteen
and over, whose eyes have all that is most
brilliant of dark and light" in theil
glances, whose shining curls fall over Q
graceful neck, and who possess those match
less graces and namecss charms which en-
rapture the poets-aud some who are moi
poets. Gently but surely do they weave
their wicheries around those who CONF
within the magic circle, and no incantation
read backwards will dissolve the charm.

WADE's SPEEcH.2The following opinion
expressed BY The New York Timer Wash
ington correspondent clearly shows that
Republicans believe that said speech has
widened the breach between the North
and South, and rendered conciliation al
most hopeless The TSmeS correspondent
says, Of the effect Of the speech: aa p
Moore, Of Kentucky, who came here a
strong Union man. and ready for any sa-
crafce to secure harmony, now says the
whole South must act together. Woodsoni
Of Missouri, aud many others Of The most
conservative men from the border States,
say Wade's speech has produced a strong
and decided feeling among them TO remain
no longer in the Union. Pugh will take
the irst Opportunity to reply. He says il
the positions taken to day be approved By
the Republican party, civil war will follow
in sixty days. % 1ss93 l1 1col
The TTslsS correspondent says; asd0
1t is generally conceded that Wade's
speech reflects more fairly and fully the
position Of the Republican parry than any
other, and is fully endorsed BY them, al
though Southern men are bitter against him
and bis sentiments. These feelings have
greatly increased to-day, since its publi
cation. 8L

To the Public.

The undersigned wishes to call the nHen.
tion Of the farming public 10 q new kind Of
meadow or Sarjent grass, a variety that is
entirely new TO this country, and well
adapted to the climate, soil aud seasons.
Seven years ago | procured from the
States half thimble fall of seed, sent 10
me in letter, procured from the only patch
ever saw or heard Of. 1t was q strange
grass, there without name, and with no
known origin. Since then have expert
mented with the seed on different kinds OF
soil, until the present spring, when I now
have sufficient seed to SOW seFentyfVe
acres. l have raised it on the common
sandy and gravel prairie, and find it does
well on such land, forming a complete sod,
and keeping green both summer and winter.
have sOwed icalso on clay or lOamy soil,
and find it equally well adapted to the
same, producing OH either soil double the
quantity Of hay to the acre that eau DO
produced with timothy, orchard grass or
red top.
Horses and cattle will eat the hay Of it
as freely as of timothy. 1t appears to be
equally nutritious, and as we'll adopted to
feeding aud fatening stock as any other
tame grass known in this country, and when
firmly set, will form q pasturage equal to
blue grass 9f4a
The best time for sowing this grass seed
is in February, March or April, or any
time after the hard freezing is over. IL
seeds the second year after sowing, and
ripens about the last Of June
l will have q considerable quantity OF
the seed to dispose Of the ensuing fall. 4
therefore, in order that tho seed may be
equally diifused throughout our Territory,
present to each member Of the Legislative
Assembly with a small quantity Of II, that
they may try the same in their respective
localities, and prove il it is not what here
recommend it to be. ~ s.
Any person wishing to see it growing,
can cali at my farm on Grand Mound
Prairie, Thurston County, and examine for
themselves. 20 eslIE1d
l would respectfully request Of each
member who tries the seed, to inform me
next fall Of the result. ~ -
The seed should be sovn the same as
other small grain, on plowed land, lightly

D he Star OF the Aexi.D

The report that the Star of the Westn had

Major ANDERSON seemed. at the time, purely
Incredible. Not that The disposition of the
Government 10 forward such reinforcements
was for one moment 10 be doubted, hut that
the Commanded. in Chief OF the United States
Army should send i large body of men in a
merchant steamer to run the gauntlet OF land
batteries, was d reflection upon his military
experience and skill which few who know
Gen. SCOTT could for one moment admit. A
single we'll directed shot would disable such
a fragile fabric as the Star Of the West, aud
even stout vessels ot-war, as proved Dy the
Crimean ntest are no match for land bat
teries properly handled. 0ne OF the finest
steam frigates ia the British Navy, carrying
sc guns was knocked to pieces by u small Rus.
eian battery of four gurs, having materials
for healing shot OF course, every one sup
posed that instead OF going TO Charleston the
sagacious military chieftain OF tho United
States had permitted such a report to get
abroad 10 conceal the real destination of the
vessel, which might, in point Of fact, be Pensa-
cola, Key West, or Tortugas. Nevertheless, it
turns out that the "Star OF The West" was really
sent to Charleston, and, having received a
couple of shots got out of harms way as
speedily as possible. Since the day when
Bligaiier General WEBB came to Washing
ton for the purpose OF chastising DUFF
GREEN, and Catching sight of mahogany
stock, percussion lock" DC, went back quick
er than he came, we have never heard OF
more remarkable aud Improbable military
expedition
