The Change Of Front.

The most encouraging aspect Of the re-
bellion, just now, is the change Of front, :
on the part Of some, of the leading psliti.
clans and newspapers Of the Butternut per.
suasion. The Ohio Statesman and the N.
Y. Express, and others Of the same
kidney are following in the wake Of
John Van Buren,; and now, as the soldiers
are likely to have vote, declare themselves
uncompromisinsly for the war--war all the
timo-and to tho ''bitter end, y rather than
submit to the dismemberrnent Of the Union
or accede to q dishouorable peace. o.-,
They are coming around beautifully--and
whether prompted by proper or improper
motives, We welcome them, ss co-laborers
in good cause. For
While The lamp holds out to burn,
The vilest sinner may return"
II would be well for those who are still in
the service Of the "wayward sisters still
conspiring against the Government, to bear
in mind, that this lamp" may not hold
out continually for the guilty to repent
And those who are wearyiug the patience
of the loyal people, and attempting to blast
the hopes Of the brave soldiers in the field,
may, as acotemporary expresses it, repent
when too late to save themselves from the in
dignant wrath Of the patriotic Democratic
masses Of the country, whom they have
tried to deceive-to influence to sell out to
a monster despotism the most villain
Gus aristocracy that ever cursed an enlight-
ened age
1t will be seen how these same editors
and politicians who have been giving laid
and comfort tothe enemy" will in time,
shout for an escape from their own records,
from the history they have already made.
The Richmond Dispatch, portrayed these
politicians graphically, when it uttered
these words:
" We rould not hare such mean spirited
Jetto,cs for slaves." Such fellows as are
trying to destroy the credit of their Gov
eminent Such fellows as can find no good
in our President. no harm in JEFF. Davis
no good in our Government, no harm in

CLEANING SEED

Is an item in raising flax that must have
more attention from our Western farmers
than it has hitherto received. Until lately
the makers Of tanning mills had little or no
experience with it, and SO furnished no
screens suitable; but now, several of them
furnish fax screen, with which large
amount of the foul seeds eau be removed /;
and there is certainly no excuse for trans.
porting prairie dirt, at high rate of freight,
to the damaging Of tho crop in the market
and the great annoyance Of the manufac.
turer, who has to separate every particle of
it before crushing the seed. The difference
in price between lots of seed belonging to
different parties is mainly determined by
the manner in which it has been cleaned by
the farmer. ....

YIELD PER ACRE.


The average yield of seed may be stated
at ten to twelve bushels per acre. Some
report fifteen-the lowest nine. The largest
yield Of which we have heard was twenty.
three bushels to the acre, but scores OF
farmers reported fifteen to twenty bushels
in 1861.
The average yield of straw is one and a
half to two tons-when cut yielding about
one ton OF rotted straw, for which there is
now an active demand, with every prospect
OF an increase, as machines for breaking out
the fibre are improved and multiplied
Messrs. Walworth, Hubbard Il Co., Of
this city, who have invented and construct.
ed powerful breaker, are now paying from
eight to twelve dollars per ton, according
to quality, delivered in Chicago, and will
contract with responsible parties for the de-
livery OF large amounts the ensuing autumn.
COST OF PRODUCTION.
In reply to our inquiry on this point the
answers were almost unanimous" About
the same as wheat" Some say that in
regard to preparation of ground and SOW
ing, just the same as wheat. Harvesting
less expensive, but cleaning a trife more. I"
SO that 1t may be safely put down as costing
less to raise FAX than wheat.
CERTAINTY OF THE CROP.
On this point there is perfect agreement
from all sections. One man says :"I have
raised It for over twenty years, and nine
years in succession upon Que piece of land,
and never knew it fail" Another reply
signed by several farmers says. ''If sown
IN season there is no crop pore certain. =
Another: ''If put in early think It sure
crop" and one in Southern Illinois where
Corn is King" writes. Taking the or
binary run Of seasons, flax is US certain as
any crop except corn" ~ u
We have thus given as much detailed in.
formation upon the subject as the limits Of
our article will allow, hoping it may lead
some farmers, who have hitherto stood aloof
from Its culture, to give il at least a fair
trial. Fully persuaded that at no distant
day the Northwest can and will produce
TAX fibre enough to clothe us all in linens
more or less fne, and at cost comparinS
favorably with cotton. 4 Ip =

MODE OF IHREsHTNG.

with fail, said few Germans, in
the vicinity of Chicago, who have raised
some Of the finest crops on resprd, but the
rest were divided almost equally between
threading out with horses" and "a ma
chine" In some sections, and those where
they have raised most, and for the longest
time, they report no difficulty in using ma
chimes with some slight alterations, TO suit
better the nature of the crop; but we are
Of opinion, in view Of all the answers re.
ceived, that, for the ordinary run of farm.
ers, aud the small amount raised by eacn
"treading out may be safely recommended
as the simplest and cheapest method. When
this is done, however, great care should be
used to prepare floor SO that the seed
shall bo kept from getting mixed with dirt,
which is great and serious fault with
large proportion Of that which is brought
to this market. Then, too, an ordinary
threshing machine, will give you only
tangled fax, which is always of less value
than straight, 30 that, If the straw is heavy,
it will pay better to bind in bundles and
tread out, thus keeping the straw in good
shape for spreading to rot and to sell as
straight fhfe& The good sense and peculiar
circulns6ahcessof each farmer will suggest
the best mode for him-although, for large
operations. the machine must Of course be
the method.

such seed year after year, requiring for il
the retsrn OF only an equal amount of mer-
chaptable quality, he cannot be exI ected to
stipulate price for the balance Of the crop,
beyond the ordinary average, taking a SO,
ries OF years into the account--and il il up-
on this basis that the business has been
conducted hitherto, and It Is still confined
to the acceptance Of a majority Of the farm
ers in the largest fax growing districts. In
this connection we would add, that with
good seed to SOW, there is nothing like fax
as preparatory crop for wheat. The ties
tmony Of Ohio farmers, where fax has
been extensively grown for over quarter OF
a century, is explicit on this point, and to
this fact we would call the especial atten-
lion of our Illinois and Wisconsin farmers,
whose wheat growing for some time has
been so discouraging.
TINE or CUTTING.
Flax should be cut as soon as the bolls
begin to turn brown, and while tho stalk
IL yet green. II left standing too long there
will be great loss Of seed in harvesting.
MODE OF CUTTING.
A few farmers answered our question on
this head, with CRADLE" but large ma
jority said, with machine" And from
the number OF reapers mentioned as work.
ing well we are persuaded that almost all our
standard machines can be used to advan-
tsge in cutting. When it is raised princi.
pally for the seed there is no necessity for
binding ii, Ia great saving in time and ex.
pense as compared with harvesting wheat,
when FIVE or six men are required to bind
after the reaper) but may be simply raked
off into gavels and lie until dry, when it is
ready for threshing or stacking. As, while
standing, it is less liable to damage from
heavy showers than wheat, so now when
cut, it will bear severe rain without detri-
ment, if turned over afterwards. so as to
prevent the bolls from getting into the dirt.
Should the weather continue wet. it can be
quickly dried in an interval of sunshine
(there being no leaves to retain moisture)
and then stacked, using hay to top off, in
which shape 1t may stand, if necessary, un.
til cold weather, before threshing though
it;is better to thresh early, so as to have
September and October for dew rotting the
straw.

Tie following definite information relative 10 the
Rebel cavalry force which crossed the Potomac
River at the Point Of Rocks, Saturday night, has
been received by The Ameyioan, In II letter from Ii
Methodist clergyman residing at Brookville, Md:
Very much to the asionshmeDt Of the citizens, the
Rebels came in there Oh Sunday evening about
o. Clock.
Gen Stuart was with the Rebel force and TOOK
possession Of the reverend gentlemans house.
The Retels had with them captured wagons
pri,ouers, cOn,rubands, and mules. beside other
plumber.
On Monday morning the Rebels lef,, going north
ward as is learned from another source
The reverend gentleman says he entertained five
Of the Union prisoners oiicers) ut breakfast among
them Major Doan and Capt. Mackiing Of the United
States Engineers.
This was doubtless the same Rebel force which
struck the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad yesterday
morning.
1t il equally certain that it il the same Rebel force
which parsed northwest Of this city last evening" in
the direction Of Westminster, doubtless aiming 10
reach their forces at York, or Gettysburg, which
gave rise TO the alarm here last night.
