HoT BEDs.-Make a pit of two feet,
deep, with side snd end boards the proper
size for glazed sash as you have or pro-
pose to get. Put in manure to the depth
Of two feet. Do not tramp it down, but
fatten it down little with the spade
IF the manure is rather dry water
should be sprinkled upon it. The sashes
of glass may now be placed upon the bed
frame, and the bed left for about twelve
hours, when air should be closed again.
In three or four days the soil may be
put on this bed of manure. Fine garden
mold should be used, and it should be
spread to the depth of six or eight inches
evenly over the bed. In one or two days
the seed may be sown. If sown as soon
as the soil is put on, the soil is said to
burn so as to destroy the germ OF the
seed. Therefore air should be giveu to
the bed once or twice before the seed IS
sown.
Sow the seeds when the temperature
is 65 to 20 degrees.

1S59-1S10. The candidate for
County Clerk of Linn county, Oh the
Albany platform ticket, is named A. c..
Jones. We find in the Salem Statesman
of July II, 1859, long letter, from A.
G. Jones, of Scio, Linn county, in which,
after having given at length his reasons
for having voted against the Hon.
Lansing Stout, the Democratic nominee
for Congress, in the just preceding june
election, he concludes thus:
cit was considered best to stand aloof
from every part of the arrangement [the
election of Stout, aud thereby cast
lasting rcbuke upon all such proceed
ings, and thereby show to all would be
political leaders that if they would have
the support of the Democracy they must
stand forth on a true basis-they must.
hold forth and sustain principles Of
Democracy"
| Is the A. G. Jones who wrote that
letter, and who voted against Mr.. Stout,
the same A. G. Jones who is now asking
Democrats to vote for him for Clerk of
Linn county? Will not our dear friend
of the Democrat furnish information on
the subject Portland Commercial.

Baltimore.

Baltimore makes good show OF business
for last year. The imports of coffee were the
largest ever before known, amounting in the
aggregate to three hundred and forty-siN
thousand three hundred and seventy bags,
nearly all from Brazil. The receipts OF flour
have been largely in excess of former years,
footing up one million one hundred and
twenty-three thousand nine hundred and
eight-oHe barrels. The same may he said OF
grain, except corn, the crop being short.
The receipts OF wheat over the previous year
were over million bushels. The trade in
guano has also largely increased, whilst the
importation Of foreign hides was greater
than for many years past. The sugar and
molasses trade is steadily on the increase,
and with the augmented facilities for rciin-
ing by the formation OF new companies and
the erection OF additional buildings, the
business the present year is expected to be
larger than ever before. The reputation OF
Baltimore as q tobacco market has been kept
up during the year, the inspections being
forty-four thousand five hundred and forty
eight hogsheads.

RobbinS the Dead.

a cable telegram, stating that lands be-
longing to the estate Of the late George Pea
body had been seized by the British Crown,
on the ground that no alien can hold real
property in England. has doubtless caused
some surprise. The English law is decisive,
but we doubt not that the necessary meas
ures will be taken at once to &elieve the
property from the penalty it incurred. Moth
ing less than this is due to the dead bene-
factor of all who speak the English tongue
And it may happen that the action OF the
officers of the government in this case will
arouse the public mind to the Importance OF
sweeping away one of the last remains OF
feulalism, and of making England free,
without restriction, to all who desire to be-
come the owners OF her soil. The doctrine
of perpetual allegiance is set aside, and if
the disabilities Of aliens, in the matter OF
holding land, are promptly abolished, George
Peabody will have one more claim upon our
grateful thanks.
