ist Of delegates, but the proceedings dis
close the following names:
ON the Committee OF Credentials there is

T. u. Stokes, South Carolina. On the
Committee on Organization, G. w. Gas

South Carolina. Judge James Lyons, Of
Virginia, is President Of the Convention,
.sld d. l.. Faggner, (Fasg p Of Moth
Carolina, and Edward Stokes, Of South
guclina, are among the Vice Presidents.
We do not know a single one Of the North
Carolina representatives, nor heard Of any

No greater fraud was ever perpotrated
upon tie Democratic party Of these two

We are not disposed to laugh at or de-
ride such men as Judge Lyons, Chauncey

whom we have long regarded as able and

Mr.. O'Conor's eminent ability as a
lawyer, and his great purity Of character
as a man, have given him national rcpu-
latjon, but when lie stOops now to discuss
questions of tariff and finance, he demon

Withdrawal of the Louisiana delegates
therefor, and his subsequent denomination

A correspondent writes: If any one will
break his ground deeply and thoroughly
two or three times during the spring and
summer, the extra amount of wheat per
acre will pay for plowing and leave hand
some profit besides. l have tested this
practice several times with the most salts
factory results. In 1869 L had field OF
sixteen acres of like fertility. l expected
to plant half the field in corn, but for some
reason | did rot. In the half that had
been plowed for corn after the ground had
been broken the weeds grew more rapidly.
Consequently broke it again the goth of
June. On the first of September following
/ plowed the entire field and sowed in
wheat. The result was as follows The
half which had only received a single
blowing yielded per acre thirteen bushels
and eighteen pounds; the half that receiv-
ed three breakings yielded per acre twen-
ty-three bushels and forty pounds, which
made difference of more than ten BUSH
els per acre. At one dollar per bushel
this would pay for the extra blowing and
leave net profit Of six dollars per acre
besides.
