Communication for quarters rent at the Govern

Message.
This Recommendation is an old acouaint
ance, and worthy of the statesnfanlike
mid that originated the idea in the inter
est of the Washington Ring 1t is part
of the policy OF Grantism, which seeks To
create class distinctions, and to set up an
official aristocracy after the British pattern.
1t is not enough to increase the pay of
the Cabinet unreasonably, and to allow
them the use OF carriages, horses, and ser
wants at the public expense, as is now
done under various disguises, but the Pres
ident thinks the people ought to be taxed
also for suitable residences for their en-,
joyment He would extend this privilege
too to all person" who receive commu
tation for quarters, meaning the officers Of
| the army who by favoritism are stationed
at the capital
| This example he would commend to the
States, so that they "might erect building
for their Senators He has no word 0
encouragement now for members of tn,
House of Representatives, but being pro
gressive, he will probably say in the mex
message that their districts ought to pro
vide residences for these worthy persons
who must not be left out in the cold.
We are evidently getting on in the worl
when Chief Magistrate ventures to max
a proposition like this gravely in messag
to Congress. The simplicity that one
adorned public life and was .honorably i
Illustrated by the foremost statesmen ha
been contemptuously discarded by set {
political shoddyists whose best claim to di,
tinction is vulgar display
The mode of life which suited Clay, III,

ing He refers tc the entire Western and South

the assertion that no whatever will 1t fail

has been sufficient for a cure, and whole families
have been cured by a single bottle, with perfect
restoration OF the general health 1t is. however,
prudent, and every more certain of cure. II
Its use is continued in smaller doses for week OF

pecialy in difficult and long standing cases. Usu

MELON CuLTuRE.-Melons can be grown so
cheaply that every family should have at least
a small patch devoted to their culture, as they
will be found decided addition 10 their bill OF
fare in Summer and Autumn. There is moth
ing more inviting than cool, rich, ripe water
melon, or juicy. toolhsome, green-ileshed
muskmelon, when one comes from the harvest
field thirsty, tired, and exhausted with the
mornings labor. As soon as the soil is warm
enough the seed can be planted, and the soil for
each hill should, unless the ground is dark and
rich, be mixed with a iorkful of old decomposed
horse or COW manure. Then drop five or six
seeds into Ill., and cover them about an inch
with soil. Scatter handful OF wood ashes
plaster or bone dust upon the top Of the seeds,
to keep away the bugs. Wood-ashes are an ex.
cellent preventive against both grubs and
bugs, and for the first month of the growth OF
| the plants il Is well to Apply them once "a week
to each hill.
Lime or plaster is also good to scatter ovel
vines and if applied ea'ly in the morning, wlil'
| they are yet wet with dew, will be an effectua
remedy for melon bugs and the like. If on,
application does not drive oil the marauders, IT.,
| another, because the lime or plaster will be ben
eficial for the plants, even if it does not keep
away the bugs entirely.
Watermeons are usually planted in hills
about eight feet apart; muskmelons need only
six feet distance. Ii all the seeds come up,
when they have formed the second and third
leaves, ii is better TO thin them out leaving only
two or three in hill-yet when tho melon bugs
are around, ii is well to defer the thinning Of
the vines until they have fulfilled their mission
of destruction, and then take out those that are
the most eaten up.
All vines grow and fruit much more luxuri-
antly If they are frequently hoed, and il should
be continued until they commence TO bloom
well and cover the ground with their thrifty
shoots.

A strange wedding ID recorded as having taken
Mace I'm Pnttersyi,le, N. j., recently, the bride
being q miss of OF ly fifteen summers, while the
bridegroom is an old man 85 years tlt. The
girls name was Catherine Hegeman, and is the
daughter Of respectable farmer, who Is iepu-
ted to be well OF. Asbury Farley, the hero OF
the tale, Is described a strong, powerfully
built man, who was sent by his friends TO the
Stats Lunatic asylum some years ago, but was
subsequently released, being considered harm
less. Recently lie took it into his head that he
needed wife and he set about supplying the
want. He offered himself to several young
ladies' in Pottersvilc, but was rejected by all
of them, although lie possessed considerable
property and $1,000 In money. Al length he
became acquainted with the HegcInans, and
arrangements were made that Farley should
marry Catharine, on condition Of his settling
upon her $4,000 and pony phaeton. A pas
tor was engaged to perform the ceremony and
the marriage was consuinmated. No sooner
had the ceremony been performed than Cath
arine became frightened. She turned to the
minister and demanded that lie should unite
the marriage knot lie told her that the step
she had taken was rrevocable. Farley tried 10
console his wife, but she put him from her and
refused to look at him. She declared she would
never live with him aud the result was, Farley
went back to his farm and Catharne remained
with her father. The affair is yet mystery 10
the friends Of the young girls family, but it is
believed that the parents Of the girl deliberately
sold their child for money.
