Wheat Freezing Out.

That excellent agricultural paper, the
Dinie Farmer, has the following time
ly advice:
Up to the present writing, there has
been, this winter, no spell of weather
to make the farmer complain of wheat
freezing out. 1t is not to be expected,
however, that there will be no such
spell. The late fine open weather, now
going off with cold rains, is almost sure
to be followed, during the last of this
month and the first of next by one or
more cold snaps that will spew up the
ground, and throw out much of the
wheat that has been badly put in. In
the absence of any preventative, the
next best thingisa cure. We therefore
recommend each farmer to provide
himself with good, heavy roller, and
when the freeze comes, go at once over
his wheat fields with the roller, pres-
sing the ground closely and almost en-
tirely replacing the wheat. The pre-
scription is simple, and is certainly
worth trying. Fs ,..,.f.t

Price, Speaker of the House, editor of

threat to take from him the public

law may now be regarded as the fixed
and settled policy of the Republican
party in Arkansas, and any further op-
position on our part, or on the part of
those in the Republican ranks who have
opposed it, would justly be considered
tactious and disorganizing. 1t also says
that in carrying out plan for building

France.--Louis Napoleon.

M France must be u happy country, ac-
cording to the late speech of the Empe-
ror Napoleon to the Legislative body.
Public order having been preserved, he
says "the nation is now ready to meet
all the events of the future" Perhaps
so, and yet there is one little event which
the future has inevitably in store, which
it would be interesting TO know how the
nation is going to meet; and that is, the
removal of the Emperor himself by
death. Over-confidence rs to the future
was always a weak spot in the Napo-
leonic brain, and the spot seems to grow
bigger and bigger as he grows older.

A bill is before the Illinois Legisla-

forms, that, in the trial of all civil cases
wherein juries are impanneled, and
such jurics cannot agree upon ver-
dict, nine members of jury can make
up verdict, which shall have the same
effect as the unanimous verdict of the
jury. In Nevada, majority verdict In
all cases, civil and criminal, is received
as decisive. Common sense and COM
mon justice, pronounce this to be the
true system. The jury trial system re-
quires oyerhauling on all points to
meet the requirements of progress.

Farm Managers.

Mr.. Cliff, New York farmer, in a re-
cent address, made these correct re-
marks: #|r
One defect in our farming was lack of
capital. More money should be invest
ed i'm labor. Farm managers were also
needed. and one good result from the
agricultural colleges springing up would
be in providing class of farm mana
gers. There was a great many wealthy
men, men who were engaged in COM
merce or manufactures, who would be
glad to invest their surplus capital in
lands if they could employ good man
ayers, so, that the young men who had
been educated at these colleges, if poor,
would find remunerative employment
from this source, and thus benefit result
to both parties" 4F g-a ~
