The Uses of the Flax Crop.

The Uses of the Flax Crop.
There is hardly q crop grown that has
greater utility, or that can be turned to so
many uses as the fax crop. Every part of
it can be made use OF, not as ordinary crops,
used for common purposes for which other
crops may furnish substitute, but used
in the manufacture Of those indispensable
articles in general consumption for which
hut few substitutes are as yet known. 1t
furnishes fibre for the manufacture Of
fabrics, which. though not equal to cotton
for many purposes, is nevertheless superior
to it for most kinds of summer cloth:ng,
duck, table, linen bagging, 6rillings, &c
For the making Of clothes where wool forms
part, fax is more desirabl: than cotton,
Is the fLses mix more completely, and the
TAX takes and retains the dying mate, ial
more uniformly permanently. Though
grown chiefly for its fibre, yet the seed will
Of itself pay the cost of raising the crop,
and it can be consumed upon the farm. or
sold. In the former case it may be fed to
stock to advantage, bnt in order to be rem
dcred palatable it must be mixed with other
grain and ground, or boiled and mixed with
meal, and given with cut feed. In the lat
ter case, the oil is first expressed and the

ing stock. The refuse part Of the stalk
after the fibre has been separated, can be
used in the manufacture of coarse wrapping
paper, also in making paper for roofing
buildings, to which cement is applied, and
sheathing paper for covering the walls Of
buildings before the clapboards are put on.
The nicer qualities Of paper could be prof.
tably manufactured from that part of the
stalk used in making cloths If the material
could be produced in sufficient amount
Again faxwould form a good material for
small Irvine, such as fish lines and packing
Irvine, as well as larger cordage, such as
horse halters, clothes lines, bed cords, &C.,
Re. With suitable machinery for its manu-
facture fax can also be made use of for
other purposes and the present indications
are that it will again assume its former
honorable position in our staple products.

FEEDING THE CHlNcu BUG.-Mr r. F.
Roberts, of Racine Co., Wis, sends to the
Agricu'turalist, the experience of farmer
in that county:
1.-TWO years ago he seeded down piece
Of land sowed to oats. The grass took
we'll and the oats gave large yield Of ex-
cellent quality, while all the rest of his oats
and his wheat suffered greatly from the
ravages Of the chinch bug Last spring
he seeded down another piece sowed to
oats, which yielded a large crop Of heavy
grain, while plot Of wheat sowed beside
it was scarcely worth cutting His conclu,
sion is: that the chinch bug feeds on the
tender grass, and while they are doing that
the grain natures so that it is beyond their
power to iN ire. lie noticed that when he
cut the grain on tho plots seeded down, the
bugs appeared as thick as they were on the
other fields. This spring he is going to
SOW grass seed with all his grain crops,
using two thirds the quantity Of grass seed
commonly sown when seeding down mead
ows, and Of wheat and oats the same guam
tity Us il no grass seed was sown with them.
He prepares his seed wheat by soaking in
strong brine and drying with slack limo /"

The only remaining hope OF the rebels is tt
to stir up civil war in the loyal States. Are the
copperhesds prepared to go thus far in aiding

them to paw visit to that region where wal

Of copperhead denunciation of the war, and e.
pecialy OF the peace movement i. thus set forth

BURNsIDE's ORDER. We need not remind
friend of the present Administration. Ii has
been particularly bitter upon the Confscaton
and Emancipation measures, denouncing them
without stint Yet that paper takes occasion to
applaud the conduct Of Gen Burnside in the fol
lowing language:
" His order, No. IS, has worked like charm.
aud given peace, quiet and security 10 many
portions OF the State which have been infested
by rebel sympathzers and marsuders. Previous
TO its publication, many parts Of the State were
infested by Morgans men and other rebels,
whose presence brought fear and terror bur
since its enforcement there are none 10 be found
within our lines except a few desperate charac
Iers, who come and go secretly TO act the spy ,
and those are caught whenever found, and exc
cuted"
This order, No. 50, was the same against
which vaandigham directed the seditious and
incendiary speech which caused his military ar
rest, trial and punishment. He denounced it as
" a base usurpstion OF arbitrary authority" pro-
claimed that he for one would not regard it. -"
and did his utmost to madden the people against
it. If Vallandigham could have had his way,
the measure would have been resisted and multi
6ed before it was day old, and its author been
driven from the Department as a public enemy
The Louisville Journal, also in another article,
administers pretty thorough castigation upon
the peace democracy. Though an Intensely con
servative and pro slavery sheet, it thus rebukes
the eOpperheads:
1--WE read the speeches Of Peace factionists
and the resolutions of their meetings, and while
they have 70 word or commendatiOn or encOrr-
agement for those who are engaged in fighting
the battles of this war for the preservation of
she Union, find that they are equally and
most significantly silent in condemnation and ex
ecration of the Rebellion and Of those who are
endeavoring to overthrow the Government
When such men propose an armistice, we can
see but little difference between them and Reb-
els in arms; the former would destroy tse cOun-
try by cunning strategy, and the latter by open
assault The patriotic Democracy, to which We
turn with hope and encouragement in these ter
rible trials, is firmly in favor OF sustaining the
Government in all these measures which it deems
ndispensably necessary to secure a peace by
putting down the Rebellion, and the more stead
ly and resOlutey il adheres to this policy, the
more extended will be the scope OF its useful
ness, and the more brilliant the successes which
& must achieve before the people"
The Lansing state Republican. [volume] (Lansing, Mich.) 1855-1874, 1863-07-01

A BRIsHT IDEA. A eopperheai cotem
porary Of this State Cthe Charlotte Argu,
denOunees the issuing of the "New Army Reg
ulations" recently published by order of the
President, as "hagrant violation of the Con
stitution and gross usurpation of the legitimate
power Of Congress" This charge OF "usurpa
ton, is on par With those We noticed last week.
and shows the straits to which Northern rebels
are reduced in their efforts 10 bring railing accu-
cusations against the National Administration.
The publication of Army Regulations is a
part of the duties OF the Commander-in. Chief.
and has been performed from time TO time bv
different Presidents, without any one dreaming
of the "usurpation," Of which this modern
wiseacre complains. In the publication of Arnnv
Regulations it is necessary and proper for the
President to define the principles OF Military Law,
and to apply those principles to the Government
OF the army, and no one but a copperhead Is
contemplate enough to find fault with il.
