ernment to rend them assunder, and dis
solve those relations which had their rise
in spirit Of chivaric adventure, which
have been nursed amidst hOrdships and
perils, which have withstood every trial,
and ARE now cherished with the deepest
and fondest tenacity.
Tho inhabitants Of the region Of country
which we seek to have restored to us, werO
a part of that extended and fondly united
community, from which they have been
severed in violation Of the most sacred
affections of the human heart, From that
association, which had been oonsecrated
bygeneratiOns of harmonious fraterniza-
tion, they were dismcmbered without their
own consent, or even their knowledge
They had no opportunity ofraising even tho
voice of supplication before the deed was
done. Without consultation or warning
they wero severed from the parent stem,
and, ever since, tho voice OF lamontation
has been heard in their midst Thus sud-
dcnl y, without warning on the one hand,
or consent on the other, to sever II large
body of people from Ncommunity to which
they were bound by 80 many sacred ties,
and unite them with another, in many res
poets antagonistiC and incongcnial, would
seem to be against tho ordinary prompt
ings ol justice, and at variance with the
common impulses Of Humanity. 1t is nat
ural that they should ask to bo restored to
association, as it were, with their native
land, from which they have been SO rudely
torn. The Territory Of New Mexico, too,
asks the restoration Of her people who have
thus been severed from her, and the lands
of fertility and beauty that they occupy.
They arc part Of her treasure; and tho
great law of Justice that lies at tue founda-
tlon of this government gives her right TO
be heard in such cause. Tho region Of
country that she socks to retrieve has long
baen part of her soil, has been occupied
by her people, governed by her laws, and
sanctihod by her religion. 1t was not
wild, unsettled domain that was thus di-
yided. 1t was the laud Of a well organil-
ed christian community, extending by
cOncatenRtion Of settlements, over one
thousand miles from North to South, who
for generation after generation, hadmain-
tanned themselves against oavage foes, and
in the face Of every obstacle had made
gradual progress in tho path Of moral and
material advancement. Tho land thua
severed from Now Mexico, was fair and
fertile part Of her domain, and its inhabil
tants wore her own people, bound to her
by every tie Of ancestry, nativity and as
sociation. In her name, and in the name
Of the people wrOngOd by this act Of in
justice, humbly lay this subject before
the committee over which you have the
honor to preside, witlfa hope that they
may favor on early restoration 10 New
Mexico Of the land and people so unfairly
taken from her borders, and thus aid il
the reparation OF wrong which is felt, in
tho deepest sense, to bO oppressive and un.
just.
! have tho honor to bo, sir, most ras-
pectfully your obedient servant,

Am Ahout tho RIair Mis,ion.

NRw York, January l0.-Nearly all tho
papers to-day have editorials on the Blairs'
visit to Richmond. Tho Tribune has no
expectation Of peace, as the immediate
result Of tho mission. The Blairs do not
20 with the power to make peace, but are
authorized to ascertain If peace is attain
able. 1t hopes the efforts will produce
clear understanding at the South Of tho
grounds of difference Of the contcnding
parties. 1t thinks the end will be pertial-
ly gained il the rebels insist on terms in
admissible.
The World thinks therO is no prospect
that their mission will open the way to
responsible negotiations. 1t does notlook
for peace until the emancipation expert
ment in the South has boen tried, by ma
king foreign intervention the condition Of
freeing the slaves. 1t says, in Judging Of
tho probabilities Of peace, we abuse our
own crcduity and look at tho matter from
a Southern standpoint. Tho South has
more to gain by further resistance thanby
immediate submission.
The Times hopes that the report that
Blair has gone to Richmond is not true,
and says no good can possibly come ofthS
mission. The Government has, thus far,
dealt with the rebels only as individuals;
and, therefore, only their State authori-
ties can deal with tho General Govern
ment in a movement for peace.
It is useless to attempt to convince JEFF.
Davis of tho folly Of the rebellion, until ii
is understood by the Southern people.
The Post calls Blair's mission FOOLS
errand, and thinks peace quite near, and
that it will come from tho Southern States
and people. 1t says missions to Richmond
enable the rebel leaders to tell their poo-
pie that the United States are weary of
warand anxious for the cessation Of hos
tilitics. 1t considers Grant, Sherman,
Sheridan, Thomas and Fauagut, the best
and surest pcacc-maksrs.

mand arrived in the vicinity Of the Indians

tics, and perhaps have little fun at tho

at the same time, the most unsaleablc

the first among the desirable places

that it may come to be among the last?

PIANOS g. COTTAGE ORGANS

HAVING made arrangements with ESrEY
III & CO., Formerly Estcy a Grecn) the only
manufacturers in this country Of the Perfect
Molodeon and Cottage Organ, with Patent Base
Damper, Patent Harmonic Attachment, and Pa
tent Manual Sub-Base. am prepared to furnish
theirlMelodoons and Cottage Organs on the most
favorable terms.
These nimitablc Instruments have won their
way to public confidence purely on their merits,
and not by force of extensive advertising and
purchased recommendations.
Some of the points Of superiority claimed for
these Instruments, are these
lst Smooth, steady, and pipe-like quality of
tone
ID Great delicacy of touch and promptncss
Of action producing when desired a low, sweet,
lute-like tone, unequallcd by any other lnstru-
81. The Patent Bass Dampcr which enables
the performer TO swell the treble without ncreas-
ing the volume of bass; or, by drawing the Stop,
to swell all the notes by the action of the foot.
ith. The Patent Harmonic attachment An
ingenious octave coupler, which doubles the pow
or of the Instrument without increasing its size
or the number of reeds.
9Th. The Patent Manual Sub-Bass, which
brings into use an Independent set of base reeds
which are played with ordinary keys and con.
trollcd by stop. This new and valuable inven-
ton requires no extra room, and serves as a sub
stitute for tho Pedal Base, and can be used by al
ordinary performer.
9Th. The Knec-Stop in the Cottage Organ
which swells or dminishcs the tone by slight
movement of the left knee, without interfering
with the action of the fect-haviug this advant
age over the Automatic Swell that the volume o
tone may be readily increased without eXtraordi
nary effort, and diminished without waiting fol
! the change in the action Of the bellows.
The recently constructed Cottage Organ
without the attachment, il unsurpassed by an,
/ Reed Organ or Harmonum of the size; but, will
| the Harmonic Attachment and Manual Sub-}asc
it is pronounced by competent judges to be fa
superior to any other Instrument Of the class il
the world. Its power, sweetness, and variety o
tone, simplicity of construction and ease of man
agcmcnt, recommend il TO every one as being al
that is claimed for it, both for the parlor and the
| church.
The Harmonic Organ, for Churches anc
| Public Halls has fine, powerful Pedal Base
with independent reeds; and, with the Hermoni'
Attachment, is believed to be the most powerful
Reed Organ made, being nearly equal to q pip
organ of three times its cost.
All Of these Instruments are made in the mos
thorough manner, and warranted in every re
spect.

Garden Vegetables.


AT the late annual meeting of the
Mass. State Board of Agriculture at
Boston, Mr. Lathrop OF South Hadley,
presiding, a report was presented by
the DELEGATE from the Hampshire, Frank
lin and Hampton Society, which is
noticed rs follows by the Ploughman: -
On Friday Mr.. Huntington, of
Hadley, presented the report Of the
committee on Root Crops and Garden
Vegetables. This was an elaborate
and exceedingly well considered essay
devoted chiefly to that division of the
subject relating to Garden Vegetables.
Among the requisites to success in
this branch of industry, a warm, quick
soil was mentioned rs one of the most
important; abundant manuring, anoth-
or, well rotted barn yard manure being
the most desirable, then cultivation,
md or this turns often success or fail
ure. Experience here is an invaluable
guide.
The culture of onions was treated
of in detail, practical information on
this important crop is given in the
Essay. 1t may not be generally known
that the value of onions exported from
this State often exceeds that of apples,
which as every one knows, is very
large. ''The soil best suited to the
onion is dark sand, or one rather
inclining to sand than clay Manure
should be applied in great abundance
as there seems to be little danger of
over feeding the crop, and it is n point
of great importance to give the plants
vigorous start as well to secure a
healthy growth as to prevent the attack
of the maggot. As n main dependence
there is nothing better than manure
from the barn-yard or hog pen and
if well decomposed or composted so
much the better
The importance of good seed was
alluded to the red and yellow the
red being thought by some to be more
hardy and proligc; the yellow, first in
point Of quality, and keeping qualities.
The Danvers is sub-variety of the
yellow, equaling that in quality.
The cabbage was treated Of with
great ability. Speaking of the practi-
cal Importance of this vegetable as
forage crop, with which the writer
had abundant experience, he said
This very season COW that had been
running in n pasture and making but
four pounds of butter a week, wal
taken into the stable and fed Will
what hay she wanted, which was bu
little. Her flow Of milk increased 81
that it produced six or seven pounds
week" According to Prof Johnson
the cabbage is worth as much, pound
for pound, as carrots, and nearly twic,
as much as turnips. This is probabl,
much above the popular estimate, bu
is no doubt correct" Cases ar
known where the crop of entire field
has averaged the most extraordinar
produce of thirty pounds per head.
A strongsoil, not too cold and stiff,
thought to be as good as any, and til
preparation Of the ground should ne
be inferior to that for the tobacco crol
1t should include two ploughings, wit
narrowing enough to make the groun
light and fine. If it is at all stiff an
unyielding, fall ploughing will /
found very beneficial A point {
considerable moment is to have tn
last ploughing, if possible, immediate
ly before the plants are set Con
posted manures are better than fresl
