Manufactured ,DIidshIpmen.

The just printed Navy Register of the
United States for 1867 publishes a list of
the midshipmen at the National Naval
Academy III Annapolis. These appoint
ments are theoretically supposed to be !:
one midshipman from each Congressional
district, with the Presidents appointments,
which are made "at large" or, in special
cases, as ''sons of naval officers" The
same rule obtains in the appointments to
West Point cadetships and catalogue of
that institution would no doubt reveal the
fact, which is manifest in the midshipmen's
list in the Navy Register, that the Radi-
Gals, who now form large majority in
Congress, are filing these places with a
considerable number of constructive cadets
and manufactured midshipmen, who are
appointed from the unrepresented South
ern States, where the cadets or midship-
men never resided and do not belong. The
Navy Register prints the following among
other midshipmen

Those of our friends who innocently sup
pose that publishing newspaper is very
small matter, are respectfully referred to
the following brilliant array of genius and
talent expended on one single daily, the
New Orleans Crescent.
Col. J. o. Nixon, editor-in-chief and pro-
prietor; Judge VIM. M. Semple, first assis-
tant editor and manager; Durant Deponte,
principal writing editor; Gen. s. B. Buck
ner, D. G. Jenkins, writing and literary
editors, especially of Sunday edition; Z.
W. Halsey, writing editor; A. J. Wagner,
J. T. Hainses, news editors; G. J. Punch,
commercial editor; Daniel Scully, N. Bart

ters; V. Dentzel, river reporter; George
Duncan, marine reporter; j. d. Devils,
foreman; G.. G. Cooper, J. G. Murray, F.
Owens, and r. T. Hail. assistants.
Previous to the war two editors-in.c chief,
who were also proprietors, the senior of
whom was Col. Nixon, one news editor,
one local reporter, one commercial editor,
one river reporter. one marine reporter,
one foreman, and one assistant foreman,
constituted the editorial staff of the Ores
cent, and the paper was as large then rs it
is now.

From the " American Farmer
I
Improvement OF poor Lands.

NJ. Editor In your October number @
correspondent from Dinwiddie county,
asks for some advice i'll regard to making
"pe1m0nent improvement of poor lands. "
You have probably answered his inquiry
more fully and satisfactorily than | can do,
in subsequent numbers which ] have not
seen, Be this as it may, l am willing to
contribute my mite towards making two
blades Of grass grow where but one grew
before I might further premise, that
have had some acquaintance with the worn
out lands of tie South.
The first operation is to plow the ground
| eceH subsoil it if convenient if this can
not be done, plow deep, five or six inches
at least then put Oh about thirty-three
/ bushels of lime to the acre. Sow with oats.
not too thick, not over two bushels to the
acre, cover with spike harrow and SOW
clover seed Immediately after the drag, about
six quarts to the acre. Make drag o1
light brush, and brush in the clover seed
The sowing of clover seed should follow
that of the oats before there is any fall o1
rain to form crust. Pass a roller over the
ground if the soil be light. This is merely
the starting point, and very much depends
upon its being done we'll / have seen
blowing done in the South that [ could not
call blowing at all, it was only scratching
in fact, have not seen plOw in the South
that would cut and turn over furrow slice
as it ought to be done.
| When the crop of oats is taken off, let
the young clover grow on until fall, with
out any stock running on it, and it will
start nicely the next spring. Let it grow
on the next summer until about half the
bloom has turned brown, then turn it un-
der with a good plow. Give it another coat
of lime, and let it lie until the following
spring, then put it through the same course
again with oats and clover, and after this
crop OF clover is plowed in you may seed
it with wheat, or wait until next spring and
| plant it with corn.
! Be careful not to SOW the oats too thick
so as to smother the clover. The object
of sowing oats with the clover is merely tC
protect it from the scorching rays of the
sun, but it will nevertheless help to pay eX
penses. When the land is worn out or ma
turally poor, the farmer must grow a few
crops first for the good of the land, before
: he begins to grow any for profit to himself
and he will find no system SO cheap ano
effective for the purpose, in my opinion, al
the one here recommended.
| In regard to the lawn, permit me to ado
a few words, for | delight to look at well
kept lawn The soil must be enriched by
| tOpureSslng-nme,g guanO, phosphate, pou
drette, or any other kind of manure-i
must have plentiful supply, and that re
peated This is the first grand requisite
| The next is, NOV, NOW, NOW, from spring
until autumn, whenever the grass is sil
inches high, and you will soon have moth
ing growing on it but what ought to grow
there-grass of a lively green. A poo
lawn is an unsightly thing.

The career of Captain Charles G Moore,
with the firm of L. Fl. Moore g. Simpson,
Richmond, Va alias DR.. Jordan, aIiaS--
gay Lothario was cut suddenly short on
Monday evening by the arrival of some
gentlemen from the upper counties, who
recognized him as most consummate swim
dler. The said Moore represented himself
here as o captain of Kentucky Cavalry du-
ring the war, and for nearly year Las been
sojourning in this county, having succeed
ed in imposing on one or two generous fam
lies with story that he was forced by the
yankees to leave his native State.
He figured in Warren last year, as DIR.
Jordan, and we understand made quite o
reputation as physician. II was from
Warren that he Butlerized Watch, Saddle
and Horse, and other articles too numerous
to mention.
DR.. Jordan effected stampede on Mon
day night and the Captain is no Moore.

Como home, come to the land you lov'd
And fought so bravely for,
Her arms are open to enfOld,
Her glorious sons of war.
She needs you now no less than when
Her banner was unfurl'd,
And you look'd proudly Oh il a.
An ensign of the world.
What if it now no longer wave- ,
The hill and valleys where
Your noble daring carried Ii,
Are pleading for your care.
Her council chambers need Your minds
Her marts of trade, your will,
While learning, art and science-all
Demand Your practic'd skill.
And hearts and homes that long have been
Uuus'd to sounds of glce.
Ask lovingly for your return,
From o'er the distant sea.
We miss you, brothers, when we meet
Around the social hearth,
And half our Joy is lost, while you
Are wanderers on earth.
Then homeward turn your weary feet,
Step on her soil once more
Step proudly. none have better right,
On her historic shore.
