How TO CIR Bio CRoPs-As a rule,
farmers are much more anxious to get big
prices than big crops. There are few farms
whose average production could not be doub-
led IN very short time by more capital and
labor. II is safer to use capital in farming
than IN almost any other business. The credit
OF the pillow Is quite as good as that of the
loom or anvil, and the capital will come if it is
called for. Use more manure, and get thirty
bushels Of wheat where you now get fifteen.
and eighty bushels of corn where YOU now
get forty. The quantity of grain per acre is
mainly question of manure and tillage. A
big compost heap makes full grain bin.
With high manuring, the soil needs deeper
stirring and gradual bringing up of the sub.
soil to the surface. With the present horse
harrows and eultiyators, nearly all the cult.
walton can be done by horse power, at great
saving of expense, and great increase of
the crops. Plan for big crops this season.

AND WHAT WILL
ARISE OUT OF 1T.

such a thing as the impeachment OF the Presi-
dent Of the United States has never been seri
ously contemplated In this country before, an d
we may expect, therefore, that many new ques.
tions, fnc-spun theories, astutc and hair.split-
ting arguments will be brought FORTH and the
cunning and ingenuity of able lawyers will be
taxed to the utmost to show what can't be done
and what can; and also we may expect the dis
play Of great skill In efforts to show how not to
do IT, Already II Is affirmed that the action OF
the House of Representatives, in regard to i'm.
parchment, cannot legally apply to Mr.. johnson
In the resolution Of the House he Is declared
impcAchcd as President of the United States. 1t
is said that Mr.. Johnson is Vice President, and
only discharges the duties OF President. He
cannot, therefore, it is said be called legally and
constitutlonally President. Here, then, is sup.
posed to be a chance for eminent lawyers to dis
play much learning and profound knowledge Of
constitutional law.
Then, again, there will be trouble in the event
that Mr.. Johnson is impeached, as Mr.. Wade
is not Vice President, but only President pro
icrtsorc to preside over the deliberations of the
Senate. He is only Senator from Ohio, for II
he is really Vice President, then there is a
vacancy in the United States Senate from the
state of Ohio.
Then there are many other questions equally
or even more perplexing, which, as men study
into this matter, will doubtless come up &c
plague those who would press the matter
through.
We do not propose to unrayel or elucidate any
of these knotty questions. We shall leave al
this TO other people, while we content ourselves
with giving due notice OF what is coming.

We were not surprised to lind Secretary STAN
ton at his post yesterday morning, and in his
room dispense the usual routine Of the business
of the Office. A large number OF persons called
during the day; in fact, the number visiting was
unusually numerous. There were Senators,
Representatives, army officers, civilians, ladies,
and gentlemen, all calling during Office hours
some on business and others from curiosity. 1t
is but fair to say the latter portion did not have
interviews. Marshal Goodlng entered the De.
partmcQt about lOl5 u, M, and served a sub
pGna on Mr.. Stanton, the notification of the
suit of AdJutNnt General Thomas laying claim
to damages. General Thomas, In proPrid persona,
called about o'clock, and procured his private
letters, and, after remaining short time, with
drew. The most interesting event ofsthe day,
at least to those most directly concerned was the
payment OF the monthly salaries to the en-
ployees OF the Department. General Thomas
received his commission from the President yes
