AL1vELY SENATOR. The Boston Adcer-

tiser's Washington dispatch of Friday says:
Senator Salisbury seems determined TO
make his last days in public life conspicuous
if not glorious. To-day Tor the third time this
week he came into the Senate in a condition
for which he has made something of a national
reputation already, and began personal at
tack on the author OF the resolutions which
were passed yesterday and which tender The
sympathies OF the American people 10 the
French in their present extremity. He said
that if he had servant in his employ who
could not write better English than these
resolutions were expressed in he would
discharge him as hopelessly incompetent.
A wagoish Senator here interrupted and
wanted to know what difference it
would make, after all, as they were 10 be
read by Germans and Frenchmen, who would
be just as well satisfied and would not under
stand them any way. Senator Salisbury
continued in this vain for several minutes,
and finally wound up by demanding a recon-
sideration of the vote by which the resou-
tions were passed. The Vice President hu-
mored him by ordering the vote to be taken,
when the only voice heard In the support OF
the motion came from the Delaware Senator,
who rose to his feet in order to give more VOL
ume to his utierance. After this little pre-
lude, Senator Salisbury subsided for the bal
ance of the day.

MARK TWAIN contributes the foIlow;no 4.

MARK TWAIN contributes the following TO
the stock of information upon agricultural
subjects:
Turnips should never be pulled; il iniures
them. 1t is much better to send bow up
and let him shake the tree.
The suano is fire bird, but greet care
is necessary in rearing it, 1t should not be
imported earlier than June, or later than Sep
tember. In the winter it should be kept in
warm place, where it can hatch out its
young.
1t Is evident that we are to have a back.
ward season for grain. Therefore it will be
well for the farmer to tegin setting ont his
cornstalks and planting hir buckwheat cakes
in July instead of August.
Concerning the pumpkin-tbis berry il a
favorite with the natives of the interior of
New Englond, who prefer it to the cooseberry
for making irult cake, and who likewise give
it the preference yver the raspberry for teed-
ing cows, us being mole filling and iully as
satisfying. The pumpkin is the only escuIcnt
of the orange family that will thrive in the
north, except the sourd and one or two vari-
eties of the squash. But the custom OF plant
ing it in the front yard with the shrubbery is
fast going out of vogue, for it is now generally
conceded that the pumpkin, as shade tree,
isa failure.
