"~-- Will

over his seed wheat with ILL., utmost
care, and planting grain in place
at intervals Of foot each way, pro.
duced lG2 bushels of wheat to the
acre."
Such a yield, though enormous, and
perhaps never before realized, ought
not to be regarded as incredible. We
remember reading a we'll authentica.
ted statement, before tho war, 1876
bushels of corn to tho acre being
grown in Kentucky, a growth not the
less marvellous than the ono given Of
wheat.
Not the least wonderful part of tho
account is the small quantity of seed
used to produce the result. The num-
Der of plants, standing At foot each
way, was 1850. Supposing every
grain to have been sound when plan.
ted, the quantity required to plant an
acre would not have exceeded three
and half pounds, there being be-
tween twelve and thirteen thousand
grains to the pound.
At this rate every plant should haze
yielded about $500 grains-say Sc
venty stalks or ears, averaging 8arty
grains to the ear. Perhaps every far
mer hassseen bunches Of wheat, appa.
rently coming from q single grain,
standing in rich spot and having
room to spread, containing forty or
fifty stalks, and bearing large cars.
Now we have only to imagine IA
acre Of ground eOcapied 'by such
stalks, having plenty of manure to
feed on, to be convinced that it is pos
sible to obtain something like the crop
represented in the above extract.
But, perhaps, our readers will say it is
easier to figure this out than to reach
it by hard knocks, to which we ha1o
only to reply; let them try it on a

Jurisdiction Of the Supreme Court.

dietary Committee, has reported bill
:ls substitute for one offered bv Sum
ncr and referred to the Committee, in
relation to the appellate jurisdiction Of

and have passed laws imposing rcstric-
tons upon the Judicial Department
wholly at. variance with their consti-
tutional rights.
The Constitution wisely divided the
powers of Government. 1t confers
upon the Legislative department the
power Of making the laws upon the
Judiciary the power Of interpreting
the laws thus made, and upon tho FIX
ecative is dcvolved the duty of enforc-
ing them. This beautiful and wise
system Congress seems determined to
overthrow. The Radical majority
claim that they are tho Government ;
that they have the right, not only to
enact, but TO declare and enforce the
laws, over the whole of the immense
territory embraced in tho States Of the
Union. ...
We cannot believe that the Supreme
Court will submit to this unauthorized
and unconstitutional interference by
Congress with their plain and ac-
knowledgcd rights. If the Court
should determine to uphold their con-
stitutional prcrogativcs, it will be quito
impossible for, Congress to enforce
obedience, unless tho Executive should
join in the crusade against the Judi
ciaty. This, perhaps, Gen. Grant
would readily do, unless nc should be-
come alarmed at the rash action of
Congress and fear like absorption by
that body of the Executive power.
The real cause for alarm, however,
at last, Is in the fact that a statesman
ofthc position and ability of Mr.. Trum-
bull should even have seriously ron-
sidercd such.a bill. i'm tho better days
