orders.
1t was reported by deserters that the
whole rebel force at Secessionville was
but two battallions, with six guns
mounted, and seven more ready for use.
A reconnaissance was made, and on the

layed an hour, and as our troops rushed
up in broad day they were met by q
murderous FIRE of grape and canister.
Two regiments only reached the front,
much cut up, viz: the 9th Michigan and
10Th New York. The 28th Massachu-
setts broke and scattered, and the 46th
New York did little better. The first
two drove the gunners from the guns,
and some even penetrated the work,

General Bramsn's troops, to the

MEMOIR.


Mrs. EMELNE BLAZER, wife of Mr.. Josepb
Blazer of Gallia county, Ohio, was daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. d. and D. Cowden. She
was born August 9Th, 1876, and died June
18th, 1862, in her 10Th year. Mrs. BLAZER
was long known in the community where she
resided, as being woman Of superior princi-
pies, and possessing more than an ordinary
mind. She was always ready to administer
to the needy, console the bereaved, and relieve
the destitute. Her community has lost one of
its best members. She was remarkably atten-
tive to the wants eff her family. Herhusband
found in her not only companion, but a safe
counsellor. His loss is great, such as s1rth
can never restore. Her children were the OBJ
iect of her motherly care and solicitude; to
them she was kind, affectionate and attentive:
she trained them up for God, and TO be bles-
sing to the world; their loss is irreparable;
she left them her example, her influence, and
her instructions-a legacy to them too valu-
able for earth's treasures to purchase. In her
early life she became member of the NJ. E.
church. Her life was beautiful example of
christian integrity, and her last days were
days of patient waiting for her Lord To the
church, friends and relatives, the loss is great,
but 1t is her eternal gain.

What Each Farmer Should Have.

A small spot of ground for corn fodder.
Almost every year there is more or less
drouth in July or August, when pasture suf-
fers. How grateful then are the juicy corn
stalks, fresh and tender and nutritious. 1t
is remarkable how much can be raised from
a small spotof ground. Where one or two
COWS are kept, corner of the garden is
sufficient. Sow in drills two to three feet
apart. Keep grass out the first few weeks;
the corn will keep it out after that. Sow
in June. or even the first of July. This
will meet the wants of the latter part of Au-
gust and first half of September, when pas
ture is usually shortest. 1t is little trouble
to cut it each day, but the qualification it af-
fords the farmer to see how eagerly his stock
Ibis suffering mich cows-devour it,
should be com pensation, to say nothing of
the benefit. It certainly is but little trouble
to prepare small spot of ground. It

FARMERS,I DEPARTMENT.
The season and. Che CHOPS.


A severe drouth has prevailed through
nost of the Eastern States, this season, and
crops are destined to be very light in some
sections. "The spell was broken" about the
Goth of last month, and considerable rain
fell. The hay crop is almost an entire fail
ure, and prices are expected to rule high
the coming year. Oats, barley, and other
spring crops have suffered greatly. Wheat
will be light. From Canada we have gloomy
reports. In addition to the drouth, they
have had quite chilly nights, and even frosts,
which have done immense injury to the fall
wheat. In nlinois-contrary to general
expectation a month ,since-prospects are
good for a fair crop of wheat. We shall
probably be able, In two or three weeks,
to give our readers definite information
concerning the wheat of the entire West.
The last steamer from England brings in
telligence that the season thus far has been
unfavorable, and not more than half crop
is expected. Immense quantities of bread
stuffs have been exported from this country
to Europe during the past year. and there
is now a likelihood of fully as great de-
mand for the year to conle.-In view of
these facts, the farmers of this portion of
Kansas may we'll be encouraged to expect
good price for the large amount of sur
plus wheat they will have to dispose of.

A Horse with the Heaves.


A correspondent says: Some told me to
give my horse ginger; and, strange to tell,
found that a teaspoonful given to the
General with his oats would cure him for
the day, in half an hour after he had eaten
it-but on giving it daily the effect soon
ceased. 1t is a Jockeys remedy, and will
last long enough to swap upon. Finally,
was advised to cut my horse's fodder, and
give it always wet. pursued this course
carefully, keeping the General tied with
so short halter that he could not eat bis
bedding, giving him chopped hay three
times day, and never more than bucket
of water at time.
He improved rapidly. I have kept him
five years. making him a. factotuna-c carriage
horse, saddle horse, pillow and cart horse
and he bids fair to remain useful for five
years to come. Kept in this way, his dis
ease does not lessen his value, for speed or
labor, a single dollar. When the boys
grow careless, and give him dry hay, he
informs me of it in few days by the pecu-
liar cough I have mentioned; but some
times, for six months together, no indica-
tons of disease are visible, and he would
pass for sound horse with the most know
ing in such matters.

to spur; the lower bud for the purpose of
making new cane, the middle bud to be
rubbed out, and the third cud for produ-
cling the fruit. The practice is to cut down
to single bud. The reason for leaving
three buds is the simple fact tina. the third
fourth, fifth or sixth bud will produce lar
ger and better fruit than the first or second
