Seed wheat is scarce in several States, and
few suggestions for saving seed By hand drilling
may not be smiss. A gallon of wheat carefully
planted by hand gives moro plants TO the acre
than one unscqusinted with the number Of seed

experimental wheat culture has received much
attention, large crops have been grown per acre
from only four quarts of seed. 10 rich ground
the yonng plAuts tiller remarkably, and spread
so as to cover the whole surface and the heads
of grain longer, and are better filed for having
more room sn6a sunshine. Most farmers know
that neither corn nor cotton will bear eTOwding
on the surface planted, if one wishes to bring
the crop to the greatest perfection Take extra
pains in blowing twice OF more the land to be
planted in wheat, scatter the seed by hand in
drills as you would cotton or corn, but put not
to exceed two gallons on the acre and one ana
half may do better. Cover with light plOw,
or boStd if the ground is smooth and mellow.
Take pains also to remove all impure seeds, such
as cookie, cheat and other weeds, and wash the
seed in a Icy made Of ashes to kill the germs of
smut, if you cannot get blue stone nor eopPeras
for that purpose. Indeed, it is best to save blue
stone, salt and copperss for other uses, and
wash seed wheat in strong ley to prevent smut.
Apply the ley precisely as you would solution

Of the Philadelphia Inquirl

a correspondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer
says;
Last Sunday Jackson attended the Dutch Re
formed church, and upon that occasion, it is re-
marked, looked very ssnctmonious.
In person jackson is described TO be about
five feet seven inches high, rather fun faced,
considerably bronzed, wearing q slosch hat
pulled low down over his forehead, and clad in
a suit Of gray cloth such as is worn By the rebel
soldiery.
Those who have seen him state that It would
be difficult matter to distinguish him nom a
soldier in the ranks His cOuntenance is hag-
gard and eaFeEorn, and he looks like man who
continually bears a heavy load upon his heart.
His officers but seldom wear any distinguish
ing badge, and field officers, line officers and
privstss, It would seem, so far as dress is con-
cerned, are plac ed upon common footing.

EVACUATION OF CUMBERLAND GAP-Tbs
Secretary Of War yesterday received 8 dispatch
from General MeCoWn, commanding In East
Tennessee, dated Knoxville, September 18th, in
which be states that the Federal forces evacu-
ated Cumberland Gap on Thursday night, and
that General Stevenson was pursuing than.
Previous statements with reference to the condi-
ton Of affairs had induced the belief that the
enemy we're hemmed in, and that an escape was
impossible, but this dispstch indicates that the
real position Of things has been little understood
IF the enemy has evacuated, il is fair to presume
that we bad no force 70 oppose him North Of the
Gap, and that his escape has been effected in
that direction. The announcement that General
Stevenson is pursuing hin amounts to little, for
Of course he does NOS mean to be oyertaken.-

The same paper says
A Rabbit in a BauIe-An Incident on the
Battle Eieid Of Malvern EEills,
Says an Eastern correspondent:


A full grown rabbit had hid itself away in the
copse Of q fence, which separated two felds
near the center, aud most exposed portion of
the battle ground. Rabbits sre Wont 10 spend
the day almost mOtiODless, and in seeming
dreamy meditstiOn. This one could have had
but little thought rabbits think - when
choosing its place OF retreat st esTly dawn, that
ere it was eventide there would be such an IN
W0nted and ruthless disturbance
During ell tie preparations lUr oattls made
around It's lair during the forenoon, It neFerths-
less remained quiet Early, however, in the
afternoon, when the rage Of battle had fairly
begun, and shot and shell were falling thick and
fast in all directions shell ebsnced to burst so
near Dir. Rabbits hiding place, that he evidently
considered it unsafe to isTry longer So, fright
ened almost to death, out he springs into the
open field, and ran hither and thither with the
vain hope Of finding safe rstreat. Whichever
way Il ran eanno1s were laundering out their
smoke and FIRE, regiments Of men were adVanc-
ing OF changing position, horses galloping here
and there, shells bursting, and solid shot tearing
up the ground. Sometimes It would squat dewn
| and lie perfectly still, when some new and sud
den danger would again start it into notion
Once more it would stop and raise itself as high
as possible on its hind legs and look all round
for some place Of possible retreat
At length part Of the field seemed open,
the battle ragged most fercely Thithsr It sc
eOrdingly ran with all It's remaining speed. I'm
observed by it, however, $ regiment was in that
direction, held in reserve, and, ike Welingt0n's
st Waterloo, wes lying fat on the ground, In
order to escape the flying bullets. Ere the rab-
bit seemed aware, it had jumped into the midst
Of the men. II could 90 no further, but pres
entity nestled down beside soldier and tried 10
hide itself under his arms As the man spread
the skirt Of his coat over the trembling fugitive;
in order to insure it ell the protection in his
power 20 besto1 he, no doubt, feeingly re
membeEed how much he himself Then needed
some higher proieeten, under the shadow OF
whose arm might Be hidden his own detencelsss
head from the fast multiplying missels Of death
scattered in all directions
Il was not long, however, before Lhe regi-
meni vas ordered up and forward. From the
protection and safety granted, the timid eTeaturs
bad evidently acquired confidence in man-as
the boys are wont to say, 50 had been famed
As the regiment moved forward TO the font Of
the battle, it hoped along, tame, seemingly, as
a kitten close a. the feet OF the soldier who had
bestowed the needed protection. Wherever the
regiment went, during the remaining part Of
that bloody day and terrible battle, tue rabbit
Kept close beside its new friend. When night
came on, and the rage Of battle had ceased i
finally, unmolssted and quietly, hoped away
in order to ind some of its old and familiar
haunts
