No,e. for November.

Celery, having been "earthed up suf-
ficiently, should be covered TO secure it
from frost. Straw laid on two or three
inches deep is perhaps the best protec-
tion.
Cabbage will need TO be taken up and
secured also by covering. This may be
done either by burying in pits with the
heads down, or by laying in the ground
by the roots. and covering with straw.
We prefer the latter mode.
Beets may be preserved by putting
them in pit or cellar. Satisfy, par
snips and carrots will do better by
leaving them in the ground supply
may be dug up, however, and kept in
the cellar for use when the ground is
closed by frost. Asparagus beds should
be cleared off and manured ready for
next spring, and all stiff, heavy sods
should be manured and ploughed, thus
exposing them better to the frost, and
making them more friablc.
In the flower garden, layers and cut
tings should be potted OF, and these,
with all the tender plants, should be re-
moved tn the greenhouse. In the valley
and northern portions of the State,
roses and other semi-hardy plants that
are left in the flower garden should be
protected from the frost by manure,
straw, or cedar branches. Care must be
taken to fumigatc the greenhouses reg
ularly to destroy the green fly.
In the nursery, this is perhaps the
best month for setting out young trees,
and for filling up and making new
orchards. The young Seeding stocks
for nursery purposes are better planted
in the spring, but saleable trees, we
think, have more chance of succeeding
by being planted in the fall.-The

Grow q Variety Of iGrasses.

A farmer should not depend on sim
gle variety of grass alone to stock his
land. Neither clover, timothy, blue
grass, red top, or any other of the
grasses will yield as largely when
grown separate as will different kinds
mixed in the same field. In pastures
the difference in profit is greater than
in meadows. between stocking with one
or several varities. Where there is va
riety there is the best for each season,
one kind starts early; another grows
vigorously in the summer time, and
withstands dry weather; third may
supply an abundance of fall feed, ELI
during frOsts well. Then stock has u
choice and variety, and the land is
apt to have denser covering and more
pasture is thereby afforded.
For manurial purposes it is also bet
ter to grow a variety of grasses, and
plants on the same spot. Some draw
nutriment from the air, others more
from the soil; some send their roots
down deep into the subsoil, others
thrive near the surface. Perhaps, too,
the soil may be wanting in some ma
terials necessary to the proper growth
of one kind of grass, but it may be well
supplied with what will protect the sue;
sass of another Tboro is room and food
enough in the soil for many kinds to
use at once; give nature time enough
and she will put them there. The far
mer should anticipate and place them
in his soil i'll the bcginning.-RurGl NcC

The Democratic Party ard Negro
Suffrage.

The position of.the Democratic party
in relation to the question of negro
suffrage is, either willingly or ignorant
ly, misunderstood by the radicals. 1t
has always been the belief of Democrats
that, by the Constitution of the United
States, certain questions of domestic
policy, the question of suffrage among
the rest, are left to the disposition OF
the several States. The only check
upon the action of the States is found in
the Federal Constitution, and, subordi-
nate to this instrument, which is ''the
supreme law of the land" the people of
each State have right to regulate
their domestic affairs in accordance
with their own will. The Federal gov
ernment has no right to interfere, to
forbid or direct or compel the action of
the people OF any State in relation to
those subjects which, by the Constitu-
ton, are left within State control.
This principle has been thoroughly
established. 1t has been recognized by
the Federal government and by the
States from the time of the formation
of the Federal government down to
the evil hour in which the radical par
ty obtained control. While this princi-
pal was acted upon, the nation enjoyed
unexampled prosperity and peace;
when it was departed from, all our
national woes began. There is little
probability of our extrication from the
perils that now environ us, until this
distinction between the powers of the
general government and the powers of
therespectiveStates is sre-established ,and
made the basis of congressional legis-
lation.
In accordance with this principle, the
Democratic party contends that each
State has the right and the power to
regulate the question of suffrage for it
self. If any State chooses, like Massa-
chusetts or New York, to permit negroes
to vote, the Democratic party, in its
national organization, does not inter
fere to forbid. If any State chooses,
like Connecticut, (where the question
has been recently tested,) to refuse to
negroes the privilege of voting, the
Democratic party does not interfere to
compel. The question of suffrage is one
of purely State concern, and neither
the Federal government nor the people
of one State nor any number of States
have the right to control the action of
single State in this respect. So, if the
people of the southern States, of their
own free will and accord, give suffrage
to the negroes, no Democrat north of
Mason and DIXoN's line will raise his
voice in denial of their perfect right to
do so.
Individually and viewing the matter
merely as one of the State policy, we
would earnestly oppose granting suf-
frage to the negroes in West Virginia.
Upon that question, being citizens of
the State, we would have right to do
all that We legally could to prevent
what we believe would be an irremedi-
able calamity. And, for the same and
still stronger reasons, we join with the
Democratic party in the nation at large
in protesting against any action upon
tho part of the Federal government
