New Army Uniform.

The new uniform for United States
troops recommended by the Army
Board which sat recently ut New York.
has been sanctioned in general order
OF the War Department., issued under
date of July -, 1872. Descriptions and
diagrams for distribution are in course
of preparation, and the entire army, it
is believed, will be clothed in the new
dress before January |, 1873. Some of
the recently adopted changes are as
follows: The double breasted trock
coat is now to be worn by officers Of all
grades, but the skirts are to be shorter
than the present style, and the cuffs
are to be ornamented with gold stripes
on the upper side. The undress sack
coat introduced during the rebellion
is recognized, with some simple orDa.
mentatlon. The unsightly lrock coat
of the enlisted men is no longer to be
worn, and a neatly fitting basque. hand
somely ornamented on the breast and
skirts with the colors OF the different
arms Of the service, is to substituted.
The brass shoulder scale is displaced by
a cloth shoulder-strap, which is used for
keeping cross belts in place. For IA
tigue DRESS navy blue blouse, plated
on the breasts and gathered in at the
waist belt, is provided. The trowsers of
Generals and Of staff officers are TO be
dark blue, and reglmental officers are
to wear light blue trowsers with wide
welted stripes the color of the respect
i've arms of service. The antiquated
''stock'' is no longer to be worn, and
the felt hat is to be retained as an Op
tional fatigue head dress for officers.
Generals and staff officers are to wear
the French chapeau with an ostrich
plume on dress occasions; mounted
troops are to wear black felt helmet,
with gold trimmings and hair plumes,
and marching troops are to wear a
dress cap, with an upright plume of
cocks feathers-red for artillery and
white for infantry. Foot soldiers are to
wear pompons instead of plumes.
Mounted soldiers may wear troopers
high top boots, and sashes and epau-
lettes can only be worn by general Off
GERS. In actual service, soldiers over
coats, with appropriate emblems of
grade, may be worn by officers, AMI
ornaments likely to draw the fire OF
sharpshooters may be left off in the
field. General officers retain the "cloak
overcoats,' but other grades are to wear
double breasted coasts, with removable
capes. Among the minor changes are
the introduction of felt saddle,cloths,
and the use of fabrics for soldiers uni
forms adapted to the peculiar climates
and the VARYING seasons of the country.

John B. Monday, a sailor, was taken
to the hospital to-day. Both legs were
fractured, one of the fractures being
compound, and there were various cuts
and bruises in different parts of the
body. Monday said he shipped in the

back. On the return, about July 26, a
spell of heavy weather came on. Mon

mate was above him near the foretop,
oallant yard. The mate ordered him to
go alott and pass down the foreroyal
rigging. He started to obey, and ran
up the rigging to where the mate was.
Seeing that he could not pass the mate,
he told him he could not jump 10 the
royal yard from where he stood. The
mate shouted to him: "The captains
orders are for you to pass down the
royal yard. If you don't, I'll blow your
brains out" Monday replied: "You
can begin that as soon as you like. I'd
as soon have my brains blown out as

threats of the brutal mate, MondaJ

We again remind our readers of both
the importance and necessity, as in case
you are getting only two thirds
or one thirds of an average
hay-crop, as some report, of provid-
ing supplement to your forage crop.
You may sow the purple leafed round
turnip seed any time from the present
till the middle and last of August
Who're you have taken Off light hay
crop or rye crop, you may turn it over
and put on Il dressing OF manure, if you
have it; and if not, use Bradley Nj
Superphosphate instead, and you may,
if the season be favorable, raise fine
lot of turnips for cattle feed. John l..
Kelley, of Franklin, n. H., an excellent
farmer, ploughed an acre OF sandy land
last August, from which he had taken
a crop of rye, and applied manure at
the rate of p cords per acre in drills on
two-thirds of it, and on the remaining
one-third he used Bradley's Superphos-
phate, and the turnips were best where
the phosphate was used. Many other
farmers in the Granite and in the Bay
State have had like experience. Then
again, we add, fail not to provide for an
ample supply of turnips to make up the
deficiency in your hay crop, as cattle
like turnips for u change, and they are
good for milch cows.-Bostoa Cultvator.

Many narrowing facts have been given
of the late dreadful famine in Persia,
but one incident is now related so in
tensely horrible as almost to surpass all
belief, although seriously mentioned in
the Le0aat Times. In the Persian city
of Flamatan, two famishing women,
aided by seven others, stole three chill
dren and ate them. They were arrest
ed, and the bones of the dead children
found partially concealed in their
clothes. The Grand Vizier condemned
the two women to the gibbet, and their
companions in guilt to be starved to
death in prison. AT the end of week
five of these seven wretches were found
dead in the prison, after having de-
voured the other two.

Important Fact i'm Grape Culture.

We would mention q fact which has
come within our observation and expe-
rience, which, if generally true, is of
some importance. 1t is this That the
fruit bud from the base of the past
years cane throws out larger and better
developed grapes than either the first
or the second. The grapes from these
buds seem also better favored, and gen
orally superior to those on the first and
second. In accordance with this hint
we have adopted the plan Of cutting
the cane at such length as to leave the
third bud, generally, and sometimes the
fourth, when a good strong one, and
then rubbing off the first and second
buds, and leaving the third and fourth
for fruit Tne number of fruit buds
left on the vine must depend on the
age and strength of the vine. If the
vines are strong and vigorous at three
years, from two to three punches Of
grapes may be allowed to mature on
each without injury.-Pacitc Rr@

Lex Notwithstanding of Spanish
Officers in Cuba.

correspondent writes from Havana
under date of Aug. IL:
The murder OF the Mexican Gen. In.
clan and of his aide-de camp by the
Spaniards has been partially balanced
by Gen. Agramonte. He had captured
seven Spanish officers, among them Il
very distinguished colonel, and held
them prisoners in his camp. As soon
as the authorities in Puerto Principe
heard of this capture the Government
Secretary and another officer repaired,
under liag Of truce, to Agramonte's
camp. He received them hospitality,
listened to their petition, informed them
that he then held seven Spanish officers
prisonc that it was not his custom to
shoot prisoners, and that he was willing
t" parole them on condition that Gen.
lnclan and his aide-de,camp be liberat-
cd. Agramonte's astonish ment when
the Spanish commissioners regretted
that it was out of their power to COM
ply with that one condition, because the
patriot prisoners had already been shot,
can be imagined. Agran>ontc then in
vited the commissioners to break fast,
and gave orders to his chief of staff to
have all the prisoners shot at once.
When the firing was heard, Agramonte
turne to his guests, and regretted that
he could not comply with their wishes,
because the Spanish officers had al
ready been shot.
