Cotton Growing in Hnyti.

We understand from letters received
in this city, that the project of growing
cotton in Hayti has been commenced
and will be carried forward with great
vigor, and with good promise of sue
cessful result. In the province of St.
Mark, about twelve hundred colored
men have been collected, principally
emigrants from the United States and
Canada, and including a number of
"contrabands from the South, who
have commenced the work, having been
assured of the countenance and support
of the Government of the Island. In
answer to an order from St. Mark, a
merchant of this city will, in few
days, dispatch vessel loaded with
agricultural implements, furniture, and
other articles of necessity, for the la
borers in this new enterprise.-Boston

Raising Horses.

Raising Horses.
Among the products of the farmer,
there is perhaps no one class of stock
that at this time offers a more certain
return than the raising Of good horses.
The war is fast draining the country of
the surplus horsestock, as few of the
fifty thousand now in the army, will
live to be sold for any valuable use,
even if the war should end within a
year. The place of these horses must
again be filled, in any case, whether the
war ceatiaue, the supply for the army
must be renewed; and if the war closes,
then the return Of the thousands now
in the army to civil life, will cause a
demaud for horses that will render the
price Of really valuable animals far
above any figures they have ever yet
reached. At this time of the year, it
is not unusual to find mares little past
the prime for sale at low prices. The
farmer can purchase. give them winter
pasture, and in two years get from them
one hundred per cent. over the original
cost aud expenses of keeping.

Dir. Melrose writes, concerning this
vessel:

They have fitted up berths for seventy
two persons. think you will like the
manner in which this has been accom-
plishcd by the owners. The wood is all
properly seasoaed, and nicely planed,
and the workmanship all that could be
desired. In short, every ything seems to
have been done in the best manner pos
sible, and when you have been on board
yourself, l think you will agree with
ME in saying that it is emphatieally the
most comfortable and best fitted up
vessel that the Bureau has ever dis
patched to Hayti. am happy to add,
that, of Capt. McEwen and his chief
officer also, 1 can speak only in terms Of
great praise.
Since writing the above, an emigrant,
who was once sailor, has just called,
and is quite in raptures at the result of
his visit to the Wiiheilnins.
The Wilhelmina will be kept con-
stantly engaged in the Emigrant busi-
ness.

E.o,,, ths Teunessee River

From the Tennessee River.
While the boat was lying at Patriot,
a town about twenty miles below here,
many of the passengers went on shore
and strolled through the streets, as is
usual in such cases. Among these was
Lieut.. Tldrick, of Company G, Third
Iowa, who is something of an admirer
of the gentler sex. During his walk he
noticed the door of a house standing
open and beautiful young lady, the
daughter of man who owns seventy
negroes, in the doorway. The Lieu
tenant became suddenly weary and in.
yited himself in to rest awhile, to which
the young lady made no objection, but
appeared to be highly pleased with the
sttention shown her by the handsome
Lincolnite. Their conversation cna-
braced variety ef topics, the tetc-a-tete
was delightful TO both parties, and no
one knows what would have been the
result Of it had not the Iatan's bell just
then interrupted the lovers, for they had
already become such, and warned them
that they must part, for time at any
rate. AS the Lieutenant was taking a
sorrowful leave of his new friend, she
asked him sobbingly whittier the army
was going. "To New Orleans" re-
piled he. "I have friends there; won't
You have them spared for my sake?"-
"Most certainly, Miss -; there, don't
cryl but you must write your name on
this blank card (handing her one,) so
that 1 can show it to your friends and
let them know that l have seen you. -
"Yes," said she, II would do that, but
butt never went to school and
have never been taught to write. l
shouldn't wonder if l could spell it fsr
you!" Tidrick has been on the sick
list ever since.

Flowing In Grass Seed.

A correspondent of the Ne0 England
Farmer, farmer of much experience
in one of the New England States, says
he has tried the experiment of plowing
in his grass seed on fine qualities of
soil, and always with success. There
is no danger that the seed will not come
up, and it is more certain than when
slightly covered in the old way by the
drag. 1t escapes the drouth, the roots
take deeper hold, and the grass grows
stronger and better than when the roots
are on or near the surface. The exper-
iment is worth tryiRg, on sandy soil at
least.

Thomas III. Benton to his mothers in

"My mother asked me never tous to-

capacity for endurance have at present,
and whatever usefulness l may attain In

Important Discovery for Curing IL
Gapes ia Chickens.


!Hr. Etlitor:-This destructive diseas Sc
to poultry is caused by small worms in
side the windpipe.
THE REMEDY.-Tako one drop Of
spirits of turpentine, mix is with seven
drops of new milk, give this TO the
chicken with a spoon; it will soon kill
the worms, and they will be thrown out
of the windpipe. Keep the chicken in
a warm place, and when it begins to re-
vive, give it little Indian meal mixed
with milk to strengthen it. If one dose
does not cure it in FIVE hours, give it a
second dose of the same quantity.
One dose will generally cure. 1t is
a certain remedy, and is of great value
to the agricultural community. 1t was
discovered by r. H. Hubbel, farmer
in Lower Merton, Montgomery county,
Pa,

ag Orchard Caterpiilars may easily
be detected at this season of the year,
and their destruction now is cempara-
lively easy. Their nests resemble small
rings or knobs, near the extremities of
the branches. The readiest way Of de-
stroying them is to clip off the branch
on which the nest is found, and burn it.
