The Washington Star thus picks up The
Rockville Sentinel for recommending the
establishment Of the whipping-post for
negroes: 5tfs 4-@
We are afraid Rockville is not UP to the times
when it is gravely proposed by its organ of
opinion to return to the whipping-post.
Outside of Delaware we had supposed no voice
would be raised in defence of that relic of bar
barism. f Il.
The Star must add Virginia and North
Carolina to the reactionary crowd. Vir-
ginia still clings to the disgraceful and bar
barous practice of whipping petty crimis
mails. Under the malignant Influence Of
her effeminate and decayed Bourbonism
she holds on to this foolish practice against
every consideration Of reason, sense, and
sound policy.
The day hastens when the people will
come into power here and will wipe away
this shame with the whole brood of
kindred follies which now blot our statute
books. The old dynasty totters to its fall.

\ FARM GARDEN,-Rural Homc says: The
farmers fruit and vegetable garden should be
laid out so that the most of the cultivation can
be done with horse A good arrangement
would be to have a strip of grecnsward rod
wide at each end. This would answer for Il
walk and for the horse to turn on in blowing
and cultivating. Grape-yines might be
trained against the fence, or what would be
better, the fence itself should be hedge Of
Norway spruce. Make no beds and few walks
in the garden. Plant the vegetables in rows
extending from one side to the other. The
small fruits, dwarf pears and apples should
be planted on the same plan. There is then
no spading, and but little hand-hoeing and
wedding. 4 onehorse steel pillow is a fine
implement for the garden, Have a Toulouse
in one corner or in the center, and have it
we'll stocked The gardening will be pleasant,
easy and profitable.
