DEEP PLowING-MR GREELEY SATISFIED
The distinguished author of What
Know about Farming" is great advocate
for deep blowing. His two great maxim'
arc "plow deep" and "go west" HI
was in Louisiana recently, and visited The
sugar plantations, especially that of Mr.
EFPlNsHAa LAWRENCE, called " Magnolia
fifty miles below New Orleans. There he
saw steam-plowing, and he saw the tena
cious clay plowed tUo feet deep. That
pleased him. He dilates upon it with great
delight. 1t was indeed !; remarkable
achievement. Mr.. LAWRENCE is great
man. He thinks that the deep blowing OF
his 30.horse engines has enhanced the value
of his land 800 per acre. He makes 2,00t
pounds of sugar per acre on land that,
titled with mule-power, would not make
more than 500 pounds. A great gain to Mr.
LAWRENCE is In autumn. When his mule
teams are hauling the cane to the mill, his
engines can fallow his land, turning under
the cane-stubble, and putting him ahead
for his next years crop.
What pity Mr.. GREELEY had not seen this
really very interesting process before his
book "What / Know about Farming," APP
peared. He must now put to press new edi-
ton, which he should style the 'Kuklux
Edition" His journey southwark will do
him great deal Of good. He will discover
thatth arc a great many thingsin the land
that he did not know when he published
his compend of universal farming. Won't
be rowel the farmers about deep blowing
when he gets home?

Editors Richmond Dispatch:
Well knowing the value of space in your
estimable paper, should hesitate to ask
any portion of it for any other purpose
than that of calling the attention of the
public, and more especially that of the
lakewood Memorial Association, to the
melancholy fact that hundreds Of Confedc.
rate soldiers who sacrificed their lives most
ly during the peninsular campaign and the
siege of Richmond during 1862 are buried
within a mile OF the spot which, within q
few days, will be the scene of Woman's de.
yotion to the memory Of the fallen heroes.
On my own farm are two spots in which
sixteen and twenty-four are buried; how
many more are scattered about am una
BILE to say. All traces of the graves are fast
disappearing, and even now no one except
myself would be able to point them out.
l wonder what the spirits of those brave
defenders Of Richmond will think of the
neglect OF their earthly resting place, with
in eunshot almost OF their more-tuyored
comradesp AS far as my information goes,
there has not even been an effort made 10
gather the remains of any of the soldiers
buried east OF the city by either association,
although several years ago called the at
tentson OF ap officer OF the lakewood Asso-

MARSHALL WARD REPUBLICANS IN CouN-
Gil What they Think Of the 1raacs,
Won't Vote for AC-
orocs.-A mass meeting OF the Republican
party CT Marshall Ward WAS held at Ch'm-
borazo last night to make NOMINATIONS for
the Council.
After the organization Of the meeting,
Mr.. Wilcox moved that the nominees of
the Mechanics Trade Union be adopted as
the nominees of the Republican party. The
speaker remark ed that cren1f they mere not
RepubhcanS. they could do them no harm
in the Council, and that it were better to
risk three on ticket almost sure To WIN,
than to run i've Oh ticket almost sure to
lose.
Mr.. Lemuel Bowdcn strongly opposed
the policy of putting on the tickets other
than known Republicans. The attitude in
which they would be placed i'll case these
men should decline, would be Illuminating
| in the extreme.
johnson (colored) was strongly opposed
| to accepting the nominees OF the Trade
l Union, for the reason, amongst Others, that
l the Trade Union would not admit colorcd
| men into their society. lie did not KNOW
| that there was 4 single Republican in the
Trade Union, tor they had not 4 reprcSen-
| tative here tonight 10 advocate their claim.
/ lie SDGihtI iiU lhtllI " LilN w lli VIC
| present City Council except that they were
! ConservativeS-they had done HIM no
harm, and if he could not get Republicans
he would as " lief' have them as any body
else.
Mr.. Wilcox remarked that the present
president of the Council would accept Il
domination at the hands of this meeting.
| Other speakers then had something 10
say on the Subject-one Of them rcmarking
that as these men had moi been concerted
he could not support them.
The question Was here dropped, and the
meeting, on motion, appointed Il committee
| of five to make nominations. The commit
tee soon returned and reported the follow
ing names: samuel IL. Jones, William j.
| Henniug, DR.. +. Fl. Lungslcadt, l.. q.
Bowden, and JAS. kcrse-;.ll white men.
| The vote was taken on the names of each
one separately, and they were each chosen.
| When the name Of DR.. LangsteaGt was
called Il colorcd man made the objection
| that there was not q man Of his race Oh the
ticket. The meeting Immediately made
outcry against this proposition, some say
ing that it was not cXpediCnt to nominate
