duties he must fulfill yet the country is flooded with

agement ofthese complaints should engross the whole
time Of those who would be competent and successful
In their treatment and cure The inexperienced gen
eral practitioner, having neither opportunity nor
time to make himself sufficiently acquainted with
their pathology, commonly pursues one system OF treat
ment in most cases making an indiscriminate use Of
that antiquated and dangerous weapon, mercury.
More caution. however should be used by the syph.

REBEL WoMEN.-A correspondent of the
Pittsburg Dispatch, writing from Wincbes-
ter, Virginia. says: The first day or two
after our arrival here it was seldom that a
lady could be seen in our streets, aud the
place seemed deserted, excepting by the
military. The past few days they have
ventured out, aud it is amusing to watch
them exhibiting their contempt towards the
Federal Government by walking off the
sidewalk into the street and around, wher-
ever the Union flag is suspended from above,
aud under which they would otherwise pass
/ wolld not have believed it, had | not
witne 'sed a frequent occurrence of the
same yesterday aud to day. In one locali
~ of the principal street of the place, a
Union flag was suspended over the sidewalk
from the second story. Almost every lady
would walk into the street and around it.
The occupant Of the house, thinking to es-
tabshed permanent blockade. if blockade
il was, added two more flags to the one al.
ready unfurled, and attached the same to
rope extending across the street aud side
walks, bnt the bunting did not quite reach,
and a space was left in the centre, over the
street From both sidewalks they would
file right and left, aud pass into the street
and through this gap, over which the flag
did not reach. They did it apparently not
to attract attention, but as though they
would commit an objectionable crime,
were they to walk under the flag of our
Union.

-The PrnrIe Lands of CalIfornIa.

For number of years after the settle
ment OF California by the whites, people
generally supposed that the only land in
the valleys of our rivers susceptible of pro-
ftable cultivation were the narrow, moist
and rich alluvial deposits Immediately
along the banks of the streams. These al.
luvial bottoms varied in width from few
hundred yards to a mile, and being lower
by few feet, than the immense prairies
adjoining, answered to what Is known in the
East as first bottoms. The broad savannabs
connecting these narrow belts of arabic
land were considered worthless except for
grazing purposes, and even worthless in
that respect, during the dry season. 1t was
thought that, in the lack of facilities for ir-
reQatOn, the want of rain for several
months and the intense heat of the summers
sun rendered these lands, comprising about
one-eigbth of the States domain, useless
for agricultural purposes. But the soil it.
self was known to be rich aud the influx of
immigration made it necessity to attempt
it's cultivation, the alluvial land being too
limited 10 quantity to furnish farms for all.
Until within the last four years, our farm.
ers had been in the habit OF sowing grain in
the latter part of the Winter aud early In
the Spring, Immediately after the first and
only blowing. OF course grain sowed in
this way on the plains, would have to en-.
counter the drought aud intense heat, be-
fore it had sufficiently matured to withstand
them, and hence the plains came to be
thought valueless for raising grains. Since
necessity compelled the cultivation of the
praries it has been found that not only fine
crops of cereals may be produced, but that
the quality of grain raised is very superior.
The difficulty lay n the style of fcutivatiOn.
1t was found necessary to adopt the eastern
custom Of fallowing the ground 10 theSpring
and repowilg aud sowing in the Fail. By
30 doing the grain takes strong root, and is
sufficiently advanced in the Spring to with
stand the short drought previous to har-
vesting. In fact, the heads are well filed
before the dry season sets in, and it has
only to ripen. We have seen as fine fields
of grain grown in this way, on this sup
posed useless plain land as we ever saw on
The rich aluvial bottoms. And now, that
The immediate bottom lands have been ru.
ined by the deposte OF sediment from the
mountains, more of the plain land will be
brought under cultivation. We observe in
the vicinity of the city number of fields of
grain, sown last Fall, on the plains and
they look hourshing and bid fair to yield
large and profitable crops.-[ Marysville
