Every vote, both black and white, which
was given agaiuss the Conservative party
at the last election, was the assassin's
stab at the liberties of the great mass Of
whites throughout the State. Proserip-
ton of the most infamous character was
then intentionally and maliciously carried
out toward those who desire peace and
prosperity. And beside this, robbery of
the basest kind was also meant. The Con-
servatives desired equal rights among all
classes and a united effort so heal the dis
sensions between party. factions for the in
dividual good of the State. To accom-
plish this grand aim, concessions from the
supporters offEtheridge we're made, which
have never been equaled by any political
party in any State in the Union.

It.is fact worthy of notice that for

MEN OF Few WoBDs.-Some men use
words as rihemen do bullets. They say
but little. The few words go right to the
mark. They let you talk, and guide with
their. eye, on and on, till hat you say
can be answered in a word or two, and
then they lance out sentence. pierce the
matter to the quick. and are done. Your
Conversation fall into their mind as rivers
into deep ohasm, and is lost from sight
by its depth and darkness. They viii
sometimes surprise you with few words,
that go to tbe mark like a gunshot, and then
they are silent again, as if they were re-
l5ading. Such. men are safe counsellors,
and true friends, in every case where they
profess to be such. To them truth is more
valuable than gold, while pretensions is
too gauzy to deceive them. Words with
out point, to them, are like titles without
merit, only betraying the weakness of the
blinded dupes who are ever used as pro-
moters Of other men schemes.

Preparing Ground for What.

The Valley Farmer contends that ground
for wheat should be plowed very deep and
more than once. That paper maintains
that the soil should be stirred to the depth
of at least twelve inches, and plowed two
OF three times before the seed is sown.-
The Baltimore American Farmer, an
equally good authority, advances the op.
POsite opinion, declaring ;hat the wheat
plant is best provided for in shallow seed
beed. That paper says
Very deep ploWing is thought to be. not

fodder. Valuable as the fodder crop is
it is yet not so important as the corn crop,
and some of it had better be left to dry on
the stalk, than be prematurely gathered to
the injury Of the grain. We find in an old
number of the Farmers Register Mr.. Ruff
fn's) communication from a Maryland
farmer, on the subject of ''The loss caused
by stripping corn fodder" from which we
extract the following:
'In your number for August, you recon-

an early vigorous growth, in a propirious
season, that the injury done by stripping

by cool summer or dry season, 1 be-
lieve that more loss is sustained than would
pay the taxes in Maryland" Mr.. Rufin
says in one of his editorials that "the loss
Of corn in ears broken off in gathering fod-
der is very great, but cannot well be esti-
mated by itself. There is another expense,
however, which may well be estimated

ments and invited communications on this
subject. A writer on the same subject, in
the August (184o) number of the same
journal, said : "This season I have given
the plan often suggested of saving corn,
viz : by cutting down at certain stage of
ripeness and curing in small etocks, full
