revolution in that island, it is suggested
that slave labor may be discontinued there,
that a serious diminution in that crop
would follow, at least for a time, land as
IN most tropical countries the cane
crop is dependent upon hired Coolie
labor, the supply of which is becoming
more costly and uncertain, the growing
increase Of beet sugar is a matter not only
OF great interest but Of great moment"
So says Mr.. Card, in a speech recently
delivered before al agricultural conven-
ton held IN London last month. In
Europe this subject of beet sugar culture
and manufacture has been increasing in
interest and practical development for
the last fifty years, and with the demand
for this article, SO necessary for domestic
use, the supply will call forth the requisite
investments of capital and labor to meet
that demand. Though the production of
sugar from the cant of the South and the
maple of the North is large, it would seem
that the sugar beet is taking a very prom
inent place, fully equal in all respects
with that of the two before mentioned.
And we have yet another article Of great
value and Importance, to which consider
able attention has been directed, as re-
CARDS the supply of syrups and sugar, to
meet the wants of commerce and popula-
ton. The sweet potato is destined ere
long to be added to the list of agricultural
products to supply the increasing de-

the Federal officers. We know both, native
Virginians and those born in other States,
who are noble representatives of the adj
ministratoa; who commend it in the puri-
ty of their lives, their patriotic devotion to
duty, and their hearty good will towards
the people of all parties. Who, without
neglecting official duty, LOSE no opportunity
to extend Republican principles, remove
unreasonable preiudiees, and eradicate the
false doctrines which led to rebellion,
and still stand in the way Of hearty recon-
citation. We know others, native as well
as Northern born, who seem valueless as
representatives Of a party, and even in nu-
merous cases hostile to us.
If the nation has anything important at
stake in Republican ascendency, the Adj
ministration is bound to use all means, not
detrimental TO the public service, to secure
it. We would make no distinction as to
birthplace, but we think it right that as a
rule the Government should be represented
here, by citizens of our own State; men
WHO nave interests III common Wlll1 us,
and who have therefore a powerful motive,
not only TO be good officers, but to aid the
growth of a healthy public sentiment,
and of institutions that will bless and
elevate the people through all time. The
State is well supplied with such men, and
little careful sitting will enable us to dis
cover them. No doubt the Republican
ship can be lightened of many Jonahs to
advantage, and a working crew enlisted who
will bring her, with all her precious freight,
safely into port. Every Republican office
holder should be missionary of loyalty
and progress, active, jealous, untiring to
commend the administration to the people,
as the representative Of the nation. With
such men as Federal officers, we should
hope to win permanent and substantial
victory next November. The late election,
closely studied, is full of encouragement for
US. Let US close up the ranks, dismiss all
jealousies and heart burnings, and organize
at once anew for the great contest.

LOOKOUT FOR NEXT YEARS GRASS
NOW.

There is no element of good farming so
important as the proper care Of grass in
soils adapted to its growth. A large por-
ton of Virginia is frst-class grass land,
naturally, but in too many cases has been
farmed with deliberate intent to destroy
every root Of grass. The fair carpet of
sod, with which nature seeks to cover every
inch Of arabic surface, when the forest has
fallen, was not favorable to crops of tobac-
co and corn, and so it was exterpated to
make room for these staples. When
they were abandoned, the fields
where they were grown, exhausted
and bleached of plant-food, would grow
only unsightly weeds or broom sedge.
Now the first step in the recuperation Of
these lands is to bring them back to grass
growing lands. 1t can be done by little
care and application of fertilizers. Once
subdued by blowing and deep cultivation,
with a liberal dressing of lime, mari, bone
dust or stable manure, SOW mixed grasses,
harrow and roll thoroughly, and a single
year will give well covered stand of grass.
We would sow timothy, blue grass, or
chard grass, red top, white and red clover.
These give good hay, and furnish, what is
still more important, a rich pasturage for
milk, butter and cheese. i Ml
Having obtained this growth, now is the
time to look out for its preservation.
Whatever you intend to do with it, it is
Of the utmost Importance to stimulate the
roots in fall and early winter with top
dressing of some kind. Let no hoof press
| it the first year, and afterwards never feed
it close. Build fences at any cost and
change pastures, or shut up the cattle and
feed, rather than allow them to mp the
grass too closely, or cut up the surface
when softened by long rains in the fall.
If you can scatter over it stable
manure, which is rotted, it will
pay you to buy it at the market rates, as
well DIS TO raise truck, nearly. Manures
drawn fresh from the stable and spread at
once, will be more profitably used in this
way than in any other on the farm. Such
manures shelter the roots from extremes
of heat and cold, and slowly dissolve to
feed the plants. The increase in the pro-
duct Of grass by generous top-dressing is
known only to few. Its results are quite
equal to any obtained by the stimulating OF
the cereals with manures.
This is the thing to DO, and noao is the
time. Try single acre-or a few square
rods even, and note the result.
The cultivation and care of grass is the
great need of our agriculture. The old
State wants to be turned out to pasture for
seven years, like old Nebuchadneszzar.

From the Cincinnati Commercial, Dec. l2.I
A scene consequent upon indiscretions
in the country and dissipation in the
city, and rather laughable in some Of
its features, occurred yesterday on
the esplanade. An irate old gentle
man, somewhat under the influence Of
liquor, who had come very near falling
into the basin OF the fountain, which
was quite dry, was observed TO rush off
suddenly in the direction OF a young man
and a girl Of fifteen or sixteen, who were
shooting across the Walnut street cross
ing, and who doubled their speed when
they heard him shouting, Stop, you
Hannah; whar ye gwine2" Hannah's
friend was not inclined TO stop, but fin
ally yielded, as the old gentleman in.
creased his speed and his noise, and the
girl commenced to hold back, with the
remark. We might as well stop, Jim.
So they halted, on Walnut, above Fifth,
until the girls father, for such was the re-
lationship, staggered up, very red in the
face, and decidedly blown. The out
siders, who listened to the conversation
that followed, cleaned that the young
man and his girl had ran away from the
latter's home, down in the bluegrass
region Of Kentucky, after indiscreet
conduct there, and had not improved in
a moral point of view, during their few
days stay here. The old gentleman
had followed them up, and after rather
careless search, interrupted by frequent
potations, stumbled on them quite acci-
IDENTIFY, as mentioned. The result Of
the interview was that the trio walked
off together toward the Crawford House,
the old gentleman demanding speedy
marriage, the young woman quite will

have nothing to say against such con-
clusinn

that his passenger had been swindled,
approached him and said 4 am afraid
