New Corn PLANTER. One of these re-
markable machines is now on exhibition at the
U. S. hotel. 1t was thoroughly explained to
us yesterday by the proprietor, Mr.. H. NJ.
Higgins. The machine is simple triangular
frame, mounted on three wheels, the leader or
centre wheel acting the planter BY means of
spoke attachment, which, with the help of
spring rod, opens the valves attached to the
hopperS, thereby allowing from two to twelve
grains to leave the hopper, and at any distance
apart frcm six inches to four feet. The hop
pers which are situated at each side OF the
macbi0e, are four feet apart, but the frame
being movable they can be adjusted to any
width required. The Implement can be drawn
by one or two horses as desired, but as the ma
chine is light, weighing only about l50 pounds,
one horse can work it with ease. A hollow
drilled tooth precedes coulter at each side Of
the machine; these remove Instructions Of
every description. The coulters are allowed to
sink In tie ground to the exact depth required,
while the corn having only about two inches to
drop from the measuring valve, situated under
the hOppers is deposited exactly whore it is
required, and Immediately covered by the con-
cave wheels, on which the ends oil the
machine rest. A seat is provided be-
tween the guide handles and in the
event Of going over very uneven ground the
hoppers can be made to deposit by hand. This
arrangement is one of great simplicity to look
at, and yet not easy to afford a satisfactory
description of. There are many other features
entirely new and highly valuable, introduced
into the construction of this planter, but the
main improvement is great simplicity and
strength and durability combined. A child or
small boy could work it with the greatest ease.
With one horse and boy, this machine will
plant with precision far excelliug work done
by hand, no less than twenty-fOur to thirty
acres per day. The planter will follow the
harrow without the usual way of marking out
the field, and making a perfect check row. The
accuracy Of the seed discharging valves is as
tonishing. During our examination Of the
machine the operator made a regular deposit
of three, tour, six or eight grains of corn, just
as he desired. No description we could give
of this machine would convey description
adequate to its merits. 1t must be seen by
those men who can, at lance, fully appreci-
ate its Importance. Mr.. Higgins has but re-
Gently discovered that this machine will plant
cotton seed with the same ease, facility and
COZ rectness as it does corn, thus rendering it
doubly useful to the agriculturist. The pro-
prietor visits Kentucky to dispose Of the right
to manufacture and sell the planter: r:-LoutS-

The CITY OF HAsH.-A facetiOus writer,
who has evidently been victimized by some of
the Brooklyn boarding houses, says that city is
fast earning the soubriquet of "Hashtown. F."
Bcecher long ago described the city as ''roost"
for the lame chickens from New York, and to-
day its application is far appropriate. But
says this writer, ''walk along the streets about
the breakfast hour in the morning, and the in
cenSe OF hash greets your nOStrils from every
open window. Go through them towards even
ing, and the aroma of hash Aavors every pass
ing breeze. Even when asleep, the omnipres
ent hash is with you, and keeps its vigil at
your bedside through the long night watches.
You have troubled dreams Of hash, and the
complexion of this nightmare changes rs often
as the landlady changes the cook. You toss
about your bed with fearful sensation of be-
ing Strangled, aud awake In the morning to
find it nothing but hair Hash is to the
Brooklynites what potatoes are to the dwellers
in Kerry. The very trees look as though they
had been fed upon it. Most of the houses are
painted hash color. The ladies wear hash
puddings as substitute tor chignons, In con-
sequence Of which they are more attractive to
young men. This explains the reputation OF
Brooklyn for fascinating women. Indeed
wherever you 60, and whatevery you see or taste,
in this city set upon hill hash, as visible
or invisible agent, eonfronts you with its horrl-
BILE presence, and seems to exert an influence,
which we fear nothing but al army OF French
cooks can ever wholly dispel.

A CURIOUS ACcIDENT.-On Sunday last a
gentleman visiting at the house of friend In
this city went into the yard of the latter to
look at some of his fancy poultry. Among the
latter was a game.cock which our visiting
friend provoked to a quarrel with his boot
He was cautioned against proceeding to eX-
tremes with the rooster" but persisted
rather enjoying the pluck of the bird. lie
teased too long, for the game cock becoming
terribly excited made wild dash at the lrrlta-
ting boot, striking one of his spurs clear
through it and inficting painful and ugly
wound on the instep of tie foot. A surgeon
had to be called in, and for time the Injured
man was threatened with lock jaw. At last
accounts he was out Of danger, although still
suffering from his wound.-Bq6al0 Courier.
