Harvesting Corn.

Corn, next to grass, is the most i'm
portant of American crops. In every
latitude and every longitude of the
American Union, including Richmond
and South Carolina, corn is staple ar,
ticle-it is at home north, south, east
aud west. Let genial Franco have her

and, among the rest, encouraged the
American people in loose, ,slovenly aud
watchful management of corn. In the
frst place, the fodder (stalks and husks),
if we'll saved, is worth as much per acre
as hay, and yet, as general rule, from
half to the whole of its substance is
wasted by improvident management.
The way to save corn fodder, aud the
corn, too, is to cut up the corn at the
roots before the 6rst frost hard enough
to iOjure the fodder. No matter wheth
er the corn is ripe or not, cut it before
a hard frost, for it will make no improve
ment after the leaves arc killed, but
grow rapidly worse; and in all cases Cut
it when three, ,fourths of the ears are
hard, and, if properly put up, the sof'
ears will harden. .,. ......r ...
If you prefer binding into bundles

"What to Do with Greenback,"
There is, just now, a way Of using
one of Uncle Sam uel's paper dollars, so
as to get back the worth ofmany gold
dollars In a single year. Everybody
has heard of Seth Boyden's wonderful
new straw berry. From oil accounts it
is marvellous thing--the berries near

they are large. Dealers were after it,
Offering as high as $4,000 for the plant
to speculate. upon; but we are glad to
know that the enterprising publisher
of the American Agriculturist got the
start Of them, and bought up all the
plants, and is multiplying them in or
der to give them away to his subscribers!
This is in effect free gift to the pub
lic-for the Agriculturist, costing
only dollar a year, lie of itself worth
many dollars to every one, as We can
testify, having ourselves been long o
reader Of it. To those unacquainted
with it, we would say, that the Agri-
culturist is a large Journal Of 80 pages
in every number, is beautifully got up,
and is illustrated with many pleasing
and instructive engravings, which are
alone worth the whole cost. The pages
are literally filled with good things
plain, practical, reliable information
upou everything connected with tie
work of the household, the garden and
the farm--including very pleasing and
instructive department for children and
youth that is hardly sur passed by any
of the professcdly Children's Magazines.
The thousands of useful hints and sug-
gestions in tho Agriculturist, all pre-
pared by practical working men and
women who know what they are talking
about-can not fail to be worth many
dollars to every reader, whether reSid.
ing in city, village, or country. There
are special reasons for subscribing now:
First. The rule for distributing the
Strawberry plants is, "frst come first
served" and second, every new subssri-
ber for the 23d annual Volume Chat is,
for all of 1861 will get two remaining
numbers of this year free. Take eur
advice then, and send a dollar at once
to the Publisher, (Orange Judd, Al
Park Row, N. Y. City) and secure the
paper and the extra numbers, and also
an early place in the great Strawberry
list. If the plants arc to come to you
by mail, as they can do, send an extra
FIVE cents to cover the mailing. Those

Compromise.

EX-GOVERNOR NOBLE, of Wisconsin,
in his speech at the Young Mems Con-
vention at Syracuse, referred as follows
to the proposition to 'compromise" with
the Rebels: ..........
If John Jones lives in house, and
owns il, and the property in and about
1t, and some day when he is out three
or four scoundrels nter the house, steal
all he has in It, and take it in the yard;
and if ohm should come in and catch
them at it. what do you think John
would don Compromise the matter2
OF course not. What then2 Sup
pose he finds the servants of his house
have been privy to the act and, to his
astOnishmeut, these servants who have
intrigued and got these thieves in there,
and after that had got the property,
say to Jones, ooh, settle this difficulty,
and not have any trouble" "Well, "
says Jones, "How will you settle it?"
The thieves say, "we propose to take all
the personal property we have; we pro.
pose, also, to take and hold the estate,
and live here, because the property be-
longs to this place; and lastly, as it
cost US something to get here, we want
you to pay the livery hire of this bug
gy and horse" [Great laughter Do
you suppose Jones would acquieSce?
My friends, that is almost idontically
the case with the Rebels and our
Northern Copperheads.

man

Eventful History of a Soldier Wo-
man.
Mrs. Frances Louisa Clayton called
at the Provost Mnrshals Office, in this
city, Thursday, with letters from officers
to procure pass to her home in Min
nesota. Mrs. Clayton enlisted as pri.
vate with her hus band in aMinncsota reg
iment, some two years since. She was in
Rosecrans' army, and did full duty as
soldier nearly year before her sex was
d iscovered While in the army, the better
to conceal her sex, she learned to drink,
chew, smoke aud swear with the best,
or worst, of the soldiers. She stood
guard, went on picket duty, in rain and
storm, and fought on the field with
the rest, and was considered a good
fighting man. ..r
At the battle of Stone River, while
making a charge, her husband was in.
stantly killed by a ball, just five PAGES
in front of her, in the front rank. She
charged over his body with the rear
line, driving the rebels with the bayo-
net, but was soon struck with ball in
tho hip, and conveyed to the hospital,
where her sex was, of course, discover
ed. On recovering sufficiently to trav-
ell she was discharged, on the Sd Of Jan
uary last, and sent North. On the way
between Nashville and Louisville a:guer-
rilla party attacked the train and rob
bed her of her papers, money, &c. AT
ter reaching home aud recovering from
her wound, Mrs. Clayton started for the
army again, to recover the papers be-
longing to her husband, but was turn
ed back at Louisville aud ordered home,
By mistake, her papers carried her to
Kalamazoo instead of Chicago, and she
was compelled to apply to the Provost
Marshal there, who sent her through
this way. ... I...
She is a very tall, masculine looking
woman, bronzed by exposure to the
weather, and attracted universal atten
tion by her masculine strides in walk
ing, erect and soldierly carriage, anC
generally oNtre appearance. Some sol
diers following her rather too familiar
ly, Thursday evening, she drew revol
vcr al nd promptly scattered the crowd
She was recognized as an old acquain
tauce by the keeper of an eating-hous'
on Monroe street, who knew her befor
her marriage, and knew of her disap
pearance when her husband enlisted
and who provided food and shelter TO
her Thursday night. ........

France and Texas.

The Richmond Whig of the 25th inst
makes use Of the following significau 1t
language:
"We want the aid of France. We
are able to pay for it. Let us do it,
We shall then have peace, or the pow
er to wreak rich revenge on our foes -
This is not the first instance in which
intimations have been thrown out re-.
specting possible alliance between the
Confederate States and France.
In discoursing upon Mexican affairs
few days ago, the Washington Chron-
icle remarked as follows:
"There is strong admixture of the
Mexican element in Texas, and it is
said that Mexico even already regards
the recovery of Texas as by no means
impossible. The United States flag does
not float in that State, and there has
been talk of its setting up as an indie
pendent sovereignty; possibly Mexican
intrigue, aided by French cunning and
sagacity, may complicate affairs there
before the Federal Government reas.
serts its authority on Texas soil.
ave are sure that these grave aspects
of the Mexican question have not escap.
ed the attention of our Government
and that it has risen to the height oi
the emergency. Whether what is call
ed the Monroe doctrine" is to be con
sidered only Y as the opinion of him whC
first gave it utterance, or as the policy
only Of party or an Administration
and not as a national policy, we do MOI
pretend to know. But we feel we'll as
sured that nothing will be left undon,
to check mate the plans of the ambition
and interme ddling ruler Of the French
We incline to think that the maxim
that possession is nine-tenths Of tn,
law" " will ere long be applied to Texas
and that a sufficient force will soon tax
possession of some important points il
that State"

The Government and the War,
The leading article Of the last New
York Independent SAYS:
"a journey to Washington has quick
ened our faith in the Government
Unlike a year ago, the atmosphere of
that city now braces hope and courage.
Men now going there can come away
bringing with them an augmented con-
fdence in the great resources of the
government, and in the fidelity with
which these are applied to the uses Of
war. All the blunders, all the tardi
ness, all the red tape, cannot queneh
the great fact that the government has
set its heart and soul upon putting down
the rebellion; and that the rebellion
will be put down. One cannot talk an
hour with the President without feeling
that whoever else may doubt the issue
of the war, Abraham Lincoln doubts
not at all. Not naturally a sanguine
man, he yet believes that he is shutting
bis hand upon the prize of victory
When sober-minded men feel enthusi-
asm, and slow going men feel that the
end is near, and over cautious men
like MIR. Lincoln feel confident OF only
of to-day but of tomorrow, let the

that the crown of triumph is within
