steam Cultivation.

A General Steam Cultivation Com
psnyH has been started in London, with a
capital + over 100000, whose object is
announced to be to purchase, keep on hand,
lend, rent, or let to farmers, at reasonable
rates, every kind of steam agricultural
implement The prospectus suggests that
many farmers would gladly use steam in
plowing and otherwise working their
soil, but cannot afford to invest several
thousand dollars in the needful machinery.
To these this company proposes to be help
full. It is asserted that applications are
already received for renting machinery to
the value Of S25OOOO. Would not similar
companies do we'll in the West2 Not
many farmers, perhaps, can afford to grow
corn or wheat by steam now but on our
fat lands one set of machinery might be
made Of use to a considerable district at q
moderate charge to each renter. This
system has worked very well in regard tC

STRAEBERRTEs.-The strawberry season
is Just opening, though there are but few in
the market at this time, and they are held at
a very high price--twO shillings a plate.
They win soon be plentier, and strawberries
and cream will be the order of the day. Chi
eago has been luxuriating in strawberries for
a week or more. The Tribune says:
g Our citizens enjoy the luxury OF straw
berries, peaches, &C., several weeks longer
than at almost any other point in the cOun-
try, as our railroads give US direct and speedy
communication with nine degrees of latitude,
of which Chicago is the CENTER The fruit is
brought hither during the entire season, with
such promptness that the leaves are scarcely
Filted. If gathered in the evening. and ex-
pressed by night trains, it is presented at our
fruit stands fresh and crisp in the morning.
The strawberries now in market are from
Southern Illinois, fully ripe, of large size,
and as delicious as the most critical connis-
seur could desire. Our marts present the
singular spectacle of ornamental and fruit
trees, bulbs, plants, and garden seeds, fol
spring planting, while alongside are offered
for sale ripe strawberries and full-sized green
goOssberries.'

A Washington dispatch says that it\is
stated at the War Department that more
vigorous measures for calling out the full
military strength Of the negroes, viii be
made on General Thomas return from the
West. That officer, alike from interest and
familiarity with the subject, is considered
peculiarly qualified to assume entire
charge of the organization Of negro troops,
and his return is therefore awaited before
the rules and regulations therefor are pro-
mulgated.
The War Department has already re-
esived dispatches from him announcing the
complete organization of eleven negro reg
iments on the Mississippi. Meantime
prospects for negro volunteers continue
brighter in the city. The enlistments for
the first negro regiment are already COM
plete, and steps are being taken for the or
eaniEation of 8 second. Those interested
in the work promise also another regiment
from Yorktown, and one if not two more
from Alexandria. The district has thus
far furnished but two white regiments
