Lieut.. Wheeler's Exploration Party.

| WASHINGTON, May 20--Lieut.
Wheeler's exploration party will
leave in few days. The opera.
tiens contemplated in the explo-
rations and surveys west of the
10eth meridian during the field
season of 1873, include portions
of Utah, Colorado, Arizona and
New Mexico. The expedition is
to be divided into four main field
parties, one of which will be again
subdivided into four astronomical
parties. Field Party No. l will
operate in a portion of New Mex
leo and Arizona in two sections.
Party No. 2 in a southerly and
southeasterly direction, from Salt
Lake to Camp Wingate, and make
a detour through portions of New
Mexico and Arizona. Party No.
8 will move south and southwe
from Denver through Colorado to
Fort Wingate. Party Nc. 4 will
operate from Santa Fe, carrying
the system of triangulatiOn to the
meridian of Fort Wingate, thence
south to the Mexican border.
This expedition is in continual
ton of the long series of explora-
lions carried on under the direc-
ton of the War Department in
an economical and thoroughly
scientific manner, resulting in
opening new routes of travel, the
establishment of supply posts,and
the discovery of such portions of
vast western areas as shall prove
most desirable for settlers. The
parties this season will operate in
nearly parallel lines, from north
to south, cutting most of the old
routes of travel, and travelling the
area of the backbone of the CONT
nent, obtaining profile of the
same from Denver to New Mex
leo, and covering a part of the
of the Salt and ella
rivers upon the Pacific Slope, and
the Rio Grande upon the Allan
tic, a portion liable to unfold more
riches in its Typographical and it's |
other structural relations than
any other of equal dimensions in |
the still unsurveyed portions of |
the United States.

Had twinkled together in the busy maze
OF the waltz / had whirligiged around
Her airily in the Boston" and
Capered mly in front of her in the jig
OF square dances, until l was in love,
And, loving, logged to taste the ambrosial
Sweets of her liPs-yea, as humming-

To there manipulate honey without
The shadow of foul suspicion.
One eve,
In the dewy stiffness, spied her fair
Form leaning laDguidly on her fathers
Gate. / approached and timidly slipp'd
My arm lovingly about her waist. She
sighed
Not - sweet girl - but systematically
dropp'd her
Head. face upward, on my shoulder.
I went
For those lips, and touching with mine
she hUve
a sigh which blasted my love and knocked
the
KISS into non-forgetfulness. She HAD
BEEN EATING ONIONS.

could each be satiated with far better arti-
Gle of revenge if they would go to work and
sculp each other. Both are brunettes; but
Miss Lewis is very much brunetter than Miss
Ream. This, however, is not the cause of
the serious difference that exists between
them. The trouble arises from some rough
criticisms of Miss Ream's sculping on the
part of Miss Lewis.

EARLY FALL PLoUGHING.-Some of the
advantages of early ploughing are as fol-
lows:
l. The land can be ploughed cheaper then
than in the spring, because the teams are
kept cheaper, and you are not SO much lur-
ried with team work.
and turned over, which should always be
done, you get rid of all the worms which eat
up large share of the corn on such fields, ex-
cept the wire-worms.
3. The crop is much easier to take care of
by having the land at planting time as mel
low, light and lively as field is in Septem-
Der, that was ploughed in June, as farmers
frequently do, for rye.
A. You get as much better crop of corn by
preparing the land in thar way as you do by
preparing the land for rye by summer fallow-
ing.
5. You in this way are always sure that
the land is well cultivated for OATS and will
never need to plant field two seasons to get
the land subdued, and only get about one
large crop.
6. If you intend to spread manure over
those fields, it is much better to have the
land ploughed first and then let the manure
be left on the surface, or narrowed when you
harrow before planting
7. 1t is a wonderful sight easier and pleas
anter to let the land grow mellow itself, by
letting those old grass roots die and rot on
their own hook and at their own expense,
than it is for you to plough, harrow and Zoe
and hurry their decay in shorter length of
time.
8. T. is much easier to kill those grubs by
ploughiug the land, so that they never get
there, than it is to be digging them out of
the corn and replanting all the fore part of
season.
8. 1t makes farmer feel more cheerful to
see every kernel of corn he plants growing
vigorous and healthy, unmolested by those
grubs, than he can feel after they have eaten
| one-half, and are making vigorous charge
| for the rest.
10 1.-THE second and third planting gets ripe
there is no danger of soft corn among the
| first planted, and then the land is ready to
seed one year earlier.
Now, all the objections know Of are these,
1st. You lose little feed in both fall and
spring which you would get. I'd. If you
manure the field, it is harder work for the
team to haul it after the land is ploughed,
unless YOU leave roads for that purpose.
Now, if these two objections are a majority
over the other ten advantages, then let your
stiff old swarded lands lie till late the next
spring, and then lay corn and worms to-
gether, till one overpowers the other.

FRANcE.-M. L. Laboulaye's remarkable
letter respecting the position of French
affairs, has the following statement of the
division of parties in the National Assembly:
The Assembly is composed of seven hun
dred aid thirty-six members. There are
about three hundred Republicans. including
the Left Centre. and Moderate Left and the
Radical Left. There are about iour hundred
deputies of the Right and Right Centre, and
a number of uncertain and doubtful men,
bers. Those four hundred Legitimists, Ofle-
anists and Bonapartists are agreed on one
point, viz, that they will not have the repub-
lie; and they have the power in their hands
to overthrow it. What prevents them2 One
thing only, viz, the difficulty of constituting
monarchy. There are about two hundred
and nifty deputies who are not Legitimst, and
who demand a constitutional monarchy, ex
cepfing about twenty, who desire the return
of the empire. If the Comte de Chambord
decided to accept a constitution from the
Chamber, should consider the republic to be
in great danger-(bear in mind that am
speaking of the Chamber and not of the
country; for l believe the country is Repub-
liean, while the majority of the Assembly is
Monarchist.) So far the Comte de Cham
bord has shown himself little disposed to
become a constitutional king, after the man
ner of Louis Philippe or Leopold of Belgium.
