THE AMERICAN FARMER.

We have received with pleasure the
first No. of the sixth series, of this adj
mirable monthly magazine Of Agri
culture and Horticulture. For more
than forty years before the war, the
Farmer was a welcome and most useful
visitor in very large circle Of families
throughout the country. Although the
first agricultural publication issued in
America, and possessing in its early
history but few OF the advar ges for
enriching its columns with important
and varied information, which ;2f9 now
afforded, yet from its commencement,
it proved itself a most valuable auxiliary
in the great work of developing the
agricultural resources of our country,
and soon acquired an influence, whose
usefulness and extent have never been
surpassed by any similar publication in
the land. When the business relations
Of the country were so generally broken
up by the late war. the issue of the
Farmer was reluctantly suspended.
Fortunately for the farming interest
which is the great and controlling in
terest of the world, it is now resumed,
and it comes to us in Il most convenient
form, in beautiful type, and full of in
teresting and valuable reading. 1t will
everywhere receive ii cordial welcome

FARMERS AND CROPS.

It is exceedingly pleasant to see the
countenances of our farmers so much
more cheerful and smiling than they
were a few weeks ago. The distilling
rains and the bright sunshine, sent by a
bengnant Providence, have changed the
prospect of gloom, which was then before
them, into one of hope and gladness.
Their broad fields of wheat which then
gavebut faint promise ofaj joyous harvest
now wave in golden richness, ready for
the sickle of the grateful reaper. The
deep verdure OF the springing corn,
awakens rightanticipatitn MS of an ample
return for the labors of seed time. he
oat fields were never richer in promise,
and everywhere around US, in our
beautiful valley, we discern affecting
proofs of the truth and faithfulness OF
Him. who promised that ''Seed time
and Harvest. should ne ser fail.

From Mc.eic0.

An official report from General Car
vaJal, Governor of Tamauliyas, dated
the 18th instant, has been received by
Minister Romero. He states that he
had just been in possession of intelligence
from General Escabado, dated on the l6
giving him the details Of his important
victory over the imperiaiists at Conan
90, on the same day. The wagons cap
tured are over 30 in number, and the
value OF the merchandise nearly two
millions of dollars. The merchandise
belonged to French and Austrian hous-
es at Matamoras, and is, therefore, law
Iul prize. General Escabado captured
200 prisoners, OF whom 400 were Aus
trlans. Only part of the enemy's cav
airy escaped. All their artillery and
ammunition were captured. A conduta
with Two millions oidollars left Monte
ray Tor Mattamoras on the 10th, with
1000 French soldiers as Il guard, under
General .Ieaningros. General Eseabado
marched to attack him. General Car
vajal expressed his ability to capture
Matanoras without reinforcements from
Escabado.

firmed, Prussia having previously de-
clarcd war The entrance OF the Aus
TRANS into SaXony WAS hourly eNpec-
ted.
The Paris Presse publishes Il report
that he first engagement took place

The Federal Diet held an eNtiaordi-
nary meeting on the 10Th, to decide oil
motion by SaXony, that Austria and
Bavaria &c requested to adopt, ilnmedi-
atcly, SUCH measures rs We're rendered
necessary by the Prussian invasion.
Prussia mas issued declaration to the
great Powers, .justifying the invasion OF
SaXony, on the ground that the decis-
ION OF the Diet on.the 18th broke up the
Confederation, and that law of self pres
ervation compelled Prussia to secure
herself against the neighboring States
open or concealed hostility; that she had
previously offered Il conditional alliance
which WAS rejected.

JUDGE PARKER'S LAW SCHOOL IN
WINCHESTER, VA.

We take pleasure in directing attention
to the advertisement Of this Law School,
in another column of our paper. Judge
PARKER is so we'll known throughout
this part Of the country for his compre-
hensive juridical learning, as well as his
largeand varied attainmentsa as general
scholar, and his high toned character as
agentleman, that it would be supertiuous
for us to offer a word of inducement to
law students to avail themselves OF his
instructions, except simply to announce
his Willingness to teach. lis plan of
instruction seems to us emnently ju-
dicious, and adapted not only to make
the student acquainted with Law as a
science, but to familiarize him with its
practice as a profession. In his Circular,
the Judge says:
" 1t will be my effort to prepare the
student for its successful practice. bv
causing him to study and esteem the
law as a science, founded on the broadcast
and surest principles of natural Justice.
This Is sought to be attained bV the

they will be called on to do when en-
gagged in active practice. To:tssst them

THE NATIONAL UNION CONVENTION


We invite attention to the cali for
National Convention, published in our
present issue. It is made by Nessrs.
DooLrTTLE and RANDALL, OF Wis
consin, BROWNING, of Illinois, and
CowAN, of Pennsylvania-and endorsed
by Senators DIXON, OF Connecticut,
HENDRICKS, of Indiana, NORTON, of
Minnesota, and NEsMITH, Of Oregon,
and will excite deep interest in the po-
litical world. The great purpose of the
Convention will be to give support to
the administration of ANDREW JOHN
son, ia its efforts to maintain the Union
of the States under the Constitution, as
our fathers established it. We trust there
will be a cordial response to this call
from every Congressional District in the
land. We believe there will. The pc ople
are wearied and disguised with the low
partisan Juggling which has character
lied and disgraced the action of the
present Congress, and demand that
something efiieetual and statesmanlike
shall be done to relieve the country
from its present anomalous and suffering
condition. The work. of restoring the
Union remains to day just where the
President left it when Congress con-
Vened. Al that time the people with
great unanimity approved the Presi-
dents policy, and there is no evil snce
that their sentiments have changed.
But Congress through a protracted ses-
sion, has labored to defeat this policy,
and under counterfeit loyalty and
patriotism, instead of doing anything
towards the restoration of the Union,
have excluded the representatives OF
the Southern States from any partici-
patton in the affairs of the Government,
and have virtually declared that they
will not, on any terms that the Southern
States can honorably accept, admit them
again to the enjoyment Of their consti-
tutional rights.
Such being the condition Of the Govern
ment, Convention of sincere, honest,
capable men-seeking the true interests
of the MISUNDERSTANDING the tricks and
sans-representing all the States of the
Union, and planting itself on the Consti-
tuition as its platform, would receive the
beneditions Of the people, and do much
towards securing triumph toan admins
tration, which for lofty patriotism
high moral courage and far-seeing and
commanding craftsmanship has never
been surpassed in the history Of our
Government.
We ace happy tonotiee that the Demo
cratic members of Congress have held a
caucus and fully endorsed this call for a
Convention. 1t will, therefore, I'M
doubleday prove one of the largest and
most influential Conventions that will
have ever been held during the history
of our Republic.
