TIE PATRIARCH or THE HoUSE-MR. THOMAS
OF MARYLAND.

a Washington correspondent of the
Tribune writes as follows
On the extreme right of the Speaker,
separated by an empty desk only from the
Sergeant at Arms, rests a placid face,
crowned with snOW-white hair-the vete-
ran Of Congress in his past political assO-
ciations-EFancisT Thomas, of Maryland
He was the acquaintance aud compeer of
Webster, Hayne, Clay, Calhoun and ohm
Quincy Adams, a Governor of Maryland,
and a member of this House a score of
years ago. In the midst of his public la
bors, some sadness, or treachery, or false
hood. fell upon his domestic hearth, and
he withdrew, silently and sad, from the
notice of the world. For many and busy
years, the hand of man knew him not.
He made himself literal hermitage on
the mountains of Western Maryland, and
neither by visit nor correspondence did
new generation of people discover him.
At last the war burst upon the border,
and Maryland halted between two Opin-
ions, the Union or Slavery. Then as the
reg;cide, Goffe, is said to have mysterious
~ come to the rescue Of the Connecticut
people, when the savages surrounded
them Francis Thomas, who had departed
in the sable and stalwaTt meridian Of life,
appeared like an apparitlOn IN Baltimore.
His locks were bleached. His frame was
DGubs he EDOk6g 50 GGSuEESCCbG0 duA
changed, at the first Union meeting, with
splendid and eleetrifying eloqueDce. He
declared again for the Union of his youth,
and taught by the thoughtfulness of soil
tude and the Christening of his broken
household idols, his philanthrophy wash
ed of all prejudice, declared also for free
dom in Maryland. He sits In Congress
to-day, voting with the majority /; his
face is benignant, though he sits quietly
apart in the sanctity Of his private re-
membranes, yet full of holy enthusiasm,
and with the gentleness of his life there
is also that beautiful gentlemanliness Of
manner which we are accustomed to as
cribe to the 'old school of statesmen.
His district is the most loyal and progress
sive in Maryland With such statues of
a former time to work so earnestly IN the
great cause of the present, we feel that
the Fathers of the Constitution are with
us In perfeeting it.

AGRICULTURAL.
TIME 10 0UT TIMoTHY hay.


o. >. Paine, of W., writes to them. Y.
Farmers Club. "The question should
not be, at what stage viii It produce the
most weight, or bulk, or, perhaps, nutri-
ment, II that nutriment is turned 10 a
hard erusty she'll of wood, and cannot be
made available to the animal that CON
sumes it. Such hay may be best for a
city consumer, where be cuts. and perhaps
steams to make it tender. but think NOT
for the farmer. / have noticed that ami
mails are more fond of hay cut at least be-
fore all the heads are In blossom. I have
noticed that if after feeding such hav Won
change to timothy cut after the seed is
ripe, they will look at the feeder, as much
as to say, / want something better. And
then again you will find the mice will
buIrOW IN such hay, and you viii find it
full Of chaff and clankings. A man Of
my acquaintance cuts his timothy mostly
before IN blossom, and always finishes il
before it is out of blossom, and it is as
tonlshing to see how much stock the bulk
Of his hay will keep, the hay looks almost
like green grass, his sheep and cattle fat
on it, and so far from the sod deteriorat-
ing 1t Is Improving every year, and he
winters more stock on the same number
Of acres than any farmer l am acquainted
with
Alfred Young writes -" Ny father cut
when in full bloom, and I know
that he fatted cattle on that kind of hay,
without grain, or other feed Also one
Of the best daIrymen in this township
says that COWS will give much more milk
fed on early moWn hay than late. I have
always believed that ripe timothy was not
much better than straw. It is what /
call grass straw, being woody and fbrOus
with but little nutriment."
Delaware gazette. [volume] (Delaware, Ohio) 1855-1886, 1866-07-27
EooNOMY OF mOWma MAoHrrEs.

A gentleman Of experience gives as his
opinion that a good moving machine will
save farmer, upon an average, one
eighth Of his crcp of grass, aside from
the fact that ''haying is done" much soon
er, and thereby a great saving must be
made. He says the average height Of
grass is about sixteen inches, and that
machine mows an average, two inches
closer than the scythe, thus saving two
inches of grass over the whole surface.
If man cuts forty tons of hay with a
moving machine, he saves five tons of
hay, as he would not have got but thirty
FIVE tons with the scythe. Calling hay
worth, upon the average, So per ton, there
is a saving of $40 year in hay, to say
nothing of labor Thus the price of the
moving machine is saved in three years
no incOpsiderable item. But this IS small
when compared with the saving in
labor and the wear and tear Of the dis
position in swinging the Fscythe through
hot forenoon. Commend US to the
mower, as a labor saving machine over
all others invented for the use of the far
meP.

10 DRY SWEET CORN.

The question is asked, what is the best
way to cure sweet corn2 l usually pre-
pare good supply every year for winter,
and do it IN the following manner
l plant for a succession of crops every
two weeks from early spring to the 4th or
10th of July. That which ripens say near
the close of September, is dried. In good
weather, then, the atmosphere is usually
cold and dry, and if a good dayis chosen,
the drying process Is so speedy that it is
past danger before the fermentation can
take place Gather the corn while in
the best condition for eating, husk and
boil it in ten minutes orjust sufficient to
scald the starch it contains cut or sorape
the corn from the cobs Immediately, and
spread it upon the sheets placed on a toll
erably fat roof, iuclining south or west,
or upon a scaffOld. If thus elevated from
the ground it is not visited by flies. Ifput
out as it should be, early In the morn
ing, by nightit will be so dry as to be
past danger from fermentation. IF the
night promises fair, it is best to spread
a sheet over and it let remain, or it may
be taken In and the cloth spread on the
floor. Two days more of good sun will
complete the drying, when 1t may be put
into linen bag and hung up in a dry
airy place.
Some dry in stoves and ovens, but in
this way tits liable to be scorched-nor
is it as sweet and good dried in tn is way,
as when dried in the open air by the sun.
Before cooking, the corn should be pu4
to soak the night previous, and placed
where the temperature Is warm. Pre-
pared in this way it is hardly inferi or to
corn direct from the field Country Cen
tIenld1.
