PAsTUmYd Apows.-There is strong Temp

grow scnnt and the winter fodder is rather
short, 10 turn the stock into the meadows
or the young clover. We believe this
practice to be, in II majority Of cases, de-
cldedly injnrioue. The size OF the crop next
seasnn depends uron the strength attained by
the plants this Fall. IN case Of drought, such
as often occurs after harvest, they hardly bold
their own in any case. IT, besides this they
are deprived Of the leaves by which they secure
moisture from the dews, only weak growth
viii be secured. and the early tJosls will nip

SHEEP.--Some farmers of our acquaintance

chief recommendation They can only bite
close where the pasture is short, and the pas
tire is short only on poor farm. poor
farm will necessarily be encountered with
briars, weeds aud brush, in the fence corners.
Under such conditions, we would shy TO far

he has o pay one per cent. II month for 1t,

them this summer in such field rs we have
described aud give them, ia addition 10 what
thew can pick up u pint of wheat bran and
oatmeal daily, with free Access TO water and
salt.
They will first Ego forn the briars and clean
them out; every portion Of that field will bc
troddeu over aud over agnin, and the weeds
will have no chance. Feed them on that field

THAT means if you give them proper attention
and feed regularly, you will raise more lambs
Than you have ewes. The money will he mole

pay for their feed and interest. In the spring
you may put that field 10 corn, With the cef-
lainty Of getting fifty per cont, increase OF

Agricultural Knowledge.

At the present time, when the producing
class and the fertility of the soil are dispropor-
Tomato 10 the consuming class. and prices Of
food are on the increase, the importance OF in
creased agricultural knowledge cannot be over
es imated.
There are over len hundred millions OF per-
sons constantly dependent upon the products
of the soil for their very sustenanee in life, and
while in most of the vocaions demanding nc
tive industry, there is a surplus-in that Of ag-
riculture there Is q great and growing de-
ficieucv.
While this lies at the foundation Of all other
arts, the investigation of the principles upon
which the successful practice of this art de-
pends, ought to command the attention Of tho
greatest minds.
In the history of every country period &C.
ours when the demand for food, Al an economi-
cal rate, becomes very urgent, andconsequent-
", like other important pursuits, call into re-
QUESTION those agencies which tend directly

THE ROW IN ROTrENBoRO,.

This infammable locality became, on SUM-
day evening, the scene of dsgra ceful riot,
In which several persons were beaten, but
fortunately none were killed. Quite a num-
Der of colored men had assembled In front Of
Arnau's grocery, which also boasts oflhe at
traction ofa cheap bar, and many being quar-
relsome and nearly drunk, they found no bet
ter amusement than in making two boys
fight. This not being conducted with any re-
gard for fair play, was interrupted by sober
colored man who was passing. The interfer-
ence with their Sunday sport was enough for
the drunken crowd, and the colored man was
soon knocked down. The row once begun
did not stop here, and soon the whole street
was filed with colored men and women shout
ing, screaming, throwing brickbats, and brand
ishing and striking with their clubs One of
those knocked down now drew a pistol and dis.
charged it In the crowd. The report only made
the fighting more fierce, but it attracted the at
tention of a policeman near by. He quickly ran
to the scene of action and attempted to arrest
two coiored men who were beathing another
with clubs. In q moment he was assailed,
and received several serious blows from the
budgeons OF the drunken ruffians. There
were now over one hundred negroes fighting
in the street, and the disturbance seemed on the
increase. messenger had been sent at once
to the Guardhouse by the neighbors; bnt be-
fore the arrival Of the police, the crowd began
to break up, and the fighting by degrees
ceased On the arrival of squad of police,
The ground was clear, and none of the com.
batanls recently engaged could be found. One
of them has been since captured, and the case
referred to trial justice. The others will be
arrested soon.

THE HEILTH DEPARTMENT.

We are informed that there are some grave
errore in the letter signed Retrenchment,
printed in The NEWS of yesterday. The facts,
as explained to Us, are these: There was q
contract between the faculty Of the Medical
College and the City Council, twenty-five years
ago, to furnish medical and surgical assist.
ance to the Marine and City Hospital. Under
this contract the faculty took charge of the
Poorhouse and Marine Hospital. AS soon,
however, as the Roper Hospital was organ
lied the faculty gave up their contract with
the city, and the board Of trustees elected a
surgeon and physician, whom they paid, for
ue-half the present work, double the salary
proposed 10 be paid the physicians specified in
the bills now before the City Council.
As regards the Marine Hospital, the faculty
did contract with the United States Govern
ment to furnish medical attendance to this
hospital, and complied with their contract
until the breaking out of the late war. At the
close of the war, the government sold the
Marine Hospital, and contracted with the city
that the physician of the City Hospital should
attend the patients who should be sent to the
hospital by the government or any foreign
power. In the case of the City Hospital, the
contract lapsed by time, presumably with the
consent of both parties, and in the latter the
government itself has repuiated the agree
ment.
The medical faculty have now every facility
in the City Hospital for clinical instruction,
and do not desire anything more. The bill
before Council is based upon motives of re-
trenchment, and drawn up with the express
view of saving the city all unnecessary ex-
pense. 1t desires to provide ready and
speedy attendance upon the sick Of the city
who are unable to pay physician. 1t is,
however, not yet passed, and if "Retrench-
ment" would explain to Its mover any way in
which al the advantages it proposes could be
secured at less expense, We are certain he
would be heard with attention, and see the
bill modified or changed at its second reading.
