Wheat culture u the most impor

sand, clay and loan. There must be
clay for succession Of good crops
Muck or vegetable deposit Is not adj

produces large wheat stalks, and but
little or no grain.
Understandings win do more to pro-
mote the growth Of wheat, on most
soils, than any one thing. Clay con-
tains the food for the wheat plant, but
II is also the most retentive Of water,
and an excess Of water Ia death to the
winter wheat. After drainage Of q
heavy clay soil a few hundred bushels
per acre OF sand completes the work
Of improvement, and such q soil can
be made always to yield remunerative
crops. A pure sand cannot be made

The November ELECTIONS.

There is nothing especially new to add
TO the November elections as repo ted
last eek, unless it be that the republic
can success is somewhat greater than first
reports. In New York the republican
majority has gone up to $4,000 on State
ticket, and the legislature stands, senate,
republicans "a, democrats s, House re-
publicans 9S. democrats 30, and even
these figures may be eventually changed
by the vigorous war now being made in
Brooklyn, where some 1900 fraudulent
votes were cast. This result is the glo-
rious work of the people, the reform re-
publicans andreiorm democrats, and limo
sense shows the exact strength of politi-
cal parties as formerly organized ON ma
tional issues, many democrats voting the
straight republican ticket as the best
means to rebuke the Tammany corrup
ton in New York city.
Mississippi is republican as announced
last week, including both branches of the
legislature. Wisconsin, Kansas and
Minnesota are all republican by in
creased majorities. In the former State,
Doolittie renegade republican of John
son times, was the democratic candidate
for governor, and is laid where he will
do little for the present. Detroit, for
merly democratic city, has now hand
somely wheeled into the republican ranks
by some 800 majority, while in Mary
land the republicans have made such
handsome gains that they feel almost as
well as if they had carried the State.

During the past few weeks, when so
much attention has been directed to the
fire calamities OF the West, very tho
rough and effective work has been going
on in South Carolina, for the suppression
of the Ku-klux. In several localities
the president suspended The writ of ha-
beas corpus and set the U. S. Marshals
and military at work with the most prom
Using results. Hundreds of the ku-klux
became alarmed aud surrendered them
selves and their arms, and large num-
Der have made confession of their mem
bership Of the Klan, much to the dismay
of those who have persistently denied
the existence of any such organization,
and many more have fled to other parts
of the country. The horrors and brutal
tiles revealed by the frightened penitents
in their confessions, is said to be as sur
prising, TO all sides, as have been the late
financial developmentsin New York city,
and the congressional committee will
probably have them printed soon after
the meeting of Congress.

A TRAIN OF CARS FALLS FoRrY FEET.
On the 9Th inst, the Burlington Iowa
express train, on the Indianapolis and
Cincinnati junction railway, ran foul of
COW near Liberty, Ind, and was thrown
from the track and down an embank-
ment forty feet high. There was two
passenger cars to the train, one Pull
man car, and both we filled with pas
sengers. Some of them were reading
papers, others were conversing, when sim
ultaneously with the shock came the cry
of "Rere we gol' and the train plunged
wildly through the empty air. Some
sprang to the left hand side of the cars,
the fall being on the right, and were
thus, IN measure spared the terrible
shock that followed when the cars touch

party received injuries of greater or less
severity in the descent, and few retained

every possible assistance to the sufferers.
The scene was complicated one. The

around; the baggage car was badly Jam

about $4,000, was an utter ruin, and

managed to jump from it in safety. A

Corn here is now worth about one dol
ar a bushel, and at present prices, the
fodder is worth S20,-making, say, $40,
as the value of the crop. No manure
was spread on the land, and the value of
that put in the hill, which would be diff
ferentIy estimated by different individu-
ais, should be added to the expense of
the crop, after proper allowance for its
benefit to other crops. This is only a
common yield, such as common farmers
may expect still many claim they can
buy corn cheaper than they can raise it.
Perhaps they can, but do not know of
any way by which could have earned
the value of this crop of corn easier than
by raising it.
Hard times with mechanics, manufac-
turers and traders have in the past often
followed hard times for the farmer,
sibly as natural result. At any rate,
| am not sure that all the young farmers,
or old ones either, who are now fleeing
to cities and villages to escape these hard
times will find themselves entirely safe
in their new avocations, or that all will
be able to live there as much more pleas
antly and make money as much more
rapidly as they expect to do.
