It is gratifying to learn that the mer-
camille community are taking such steps
as viii render the raising of the two mill
lions of dollars for the Shreveport rail-
road a certainty. The fact that the ap-
probation of property in the city, and
the largely allgme ented trade with Texas,
will return this sum IN greatlg increased
proportions in a single year, would be
argument enough to guarantee its sue
cess. But this is not the only practical
view to take Of it. The road will be per
manent, and the trade will be the con-
tinuing growth of years. The adyanta-
ges will be reaped by both the city and
country. When New Orleans shall be-
gin to experience the benefits of these
projected avenues of commerce, she will
only have begun the great commercial
career that is destined to make her the
foremost city in the Union.-fN n. %. Re

This writing by the yard-and saying
nothing-with the express view of say
ing time, filling up the paper, and get
ting to press in Il hurry. is wrong in
principle, unjust to both editor and
readers, and except in a feeble local
character. destructive to the reputation
of the paper either rs news sheet or
as possessing any particular literary
merit, depth, force or influence.
Two waste space and money in this
barren field and manner, is worse, if
anything. than the initiation. of the adj
vcrtising columns. And when it is all
rcsorted to for the questionable credit
Of flying "bedspread sheet" but which
unfortunately bears upon it the impress
ofnoihing either attractive or beneficial,
herein we find Il strong argument for
small pages, smaller type, more con

in all that time taking no sustcnancc

that surrounds him. This time he was

Small Seed.

We find this in an exchange: Small
grain such as oats, rye. barley. wheat,
etc. will soon be ready for the cradle
and the sickle. 1t should be carefully
cut, cured aud housed, when the grain
is in the doughy state, not allowing il
to become dead ripe" as at this stage
the loss by scattering Off is much
greater. This remark applies particu-
larly TO grain intended for .feed. II
YOU desire to save il tor seed, let it get
rs ripe as possible before cutting.

that nothing of the kind has been done

Mr.. Sumner, in conversation to-day,
openly declared that, if the campaign
only presented Greeley and Grant for
President, he should support Greeley.
The campaign, he thought. promised to
be a personal one; aud on that issue
alone, he should favor Greeley. The
latter was honest, generous, and unmcr-
ccnary; the former was dishonest, took
presents, and indulgcd in nepoti,m.
Mr.. Sumner also said good thing
about the treaty, The present situation
OF the same, he declared, looked to him
like this proposition: The Gladstone
minority said to Grant, "iIclp us in this
matter to keep in power, and we will
help YOU in your reelection" Grant
replied, Il accept your proposition by
