Mr.. C0WAN said if we were going

so in favor of going back in favor
Of the white men who were our
earliest volunteers, and had borne
the heaviest burden Of the day.
He was not in favor of overrid-
ing the statute to do justice to these

Justice had been done to tho veteran

should be restored to its wonted pros

It is exceedingly dangerous. &,

The Farmers Wood.Lot.

This being the season of the year when far
mere generally are cutting, or preparing to cut,
their years supply of irewood, u few suggest
ions will not be out of place.
Surprising hrmer requires ten cords of wood
year to supply his family fires, and depends
entirely upon his wood lot fOr IT, his wood lot
fhoud consist OF about fifteen ores. Taking
into consideration the amount OF fire wood he
will annually plct up from other sources, like
trimmings and old trees from the orchard, old
ienclng stun etc ETC., we think that fifteen
acr's will be found aml 10 for almost any far
mer, while less amount will supply large
PROPORTION Of them.
II. then, farmer has a wood lot OF size lust
about sufficient to furnish his fires, he should 90
about the work OF cutting his wood IN syste
matte manner, 80 AS to make the most OF his
supply. Let him commence on one side of the
lot-say on the southerly side, # convenient,
and cut clean as he goes The young shoots
will then receive the sun, and will grow rapidlv
and evenly. Surprising his lot to furnish thirly
oorus OF wood to the acre, it will take bin forty
five years to g. over the whole, and he NAV
then 90 back to the first one cut and again cut
thirty cords TO the acre. Tnis il. we Ihink n
very moderate statement, because upon ordinary
land wood will z ow thirty cords to the acre IN
about thirty years. We have in our mind n
piece OF fourteen acres which was cleared, SOW
Cd to rye, and then pastured year or two, aud
In twenty seven years from the first clearing, il
was again cut over, when it yielded at least
thirty cords to the acre. The growth was oak
chestnut, maple.
But few OF our farmers seem to be aware how
rapidly young wood will grow, under favorable
circumstances; and as there is an increasing
scarcity OF wood, in New England especially, we
have thought 1t best u call attention to the i'm
portance OF pursuing some we'll defined plan, 20
that the supply may be equal to the ordin ry
demand.
We hardly need add that wood.lot needs 70

TnS AMERICAN SHEFP lNTERKsr. The great
agricultural interest Of America at the present
time is that OF sheep and WOO. Everything
seems to tend to enhance their Importance and
increase their value in our markets. While the
supply Of American woods is by no means com.
mensurate to the demand, foreign woods are
greatly enhanced by the high price of gold which
must be had to pay Tor our imports mutton,
100, Is being sought or as an article OF food
moro than formerly, Notwithstanding its greatly
increased price. The high price of cotton Of
course has It's effect upon wool, and although ii
has reached the high rate of from 50 TO GO cents
per pound for good clean lots, We shall not be
surprised to see il grow still higher, before the
next clip.-N II. Journal Of Agrieuhrue,

Why Hoes EET AsuEs, &c.--Mr Mech, Of
Tip Tree Hall, England, has discovered that
pigs, when shut up to fatten, are very fond Of
clnders, and improve in condition by eating a
certain portion Of them every day. Some per
sons are unable to account for thisslngulur pro
pensity in swine. Poultry are very fond olegg
shells, lime, sand, &c, and it is known these
substances are necessary in order to form tho
ahells Of eggs, and to furnish materials for the
ZONES of fowls.
Now, it is reasonable to suppose that swine
cat ashes and cinders for the purpose Of supply
ing the material for their bones, and this singu
lar instinct in AMI ais SO low in the scale Of in
telligence is truly wonderful, for ashes contain
the Ingredients which are necessary to form
bones, viz, carbonate and suphate Of lime, and
magnesia, clay, silica, gelatinz9d and made so
lutable by tho fire.
When hogs are at large they take in clay and
silica with their food, and eat bones and roots
which contain the necessary ingredients; but
when they are peut M they deavor to sup.
ply the material necessary for keeping up their
frames by devourlng ushes aud cinders. Lot

How TO CATCH SnEEP Never seize them by

them, particularly in hot weather, when they

wool altogether. Accustom yourself to catch
them by their ind leg, or, what is still better
by the neck, placing Que hand under the Jaws,
