As the hay season is fast approaching,
perhaps few words on this subject
would not come amiS>.
Many of our farmers do not pay sut-
ticiemt attention to the cutting of hay
early in the season, OF at the proper
time. To make good hay grass should
he cut about the time il is in bloom.
for if cut when in this state and prop
erly dried it is vastly superior to late
cut hay. | shall not attempt to explain
this fact as it has been explained 50
many times. but merely call attention
to it and think all who have had an
opportunity of observing will agree with
me in saying that there is great differ
ence between the sweet, green early
cut hay and the dry, wiery late cut
hay.
think some of our farmers ought t"
pay more regard to the use of proper
machines and tools. Every one who
has Il moderate sized farm should pos

BESIDES the saving of Labor there is
one other point that is of considerable
value: when grass il mowm with Il ma

Death of Lewis Tappan.

The death of Mr.. Tappan, which took
place Saturday at the ripe age OF %
Years. recalls the early days of the anti
slavery agitation in New York, when
Arthur (who died in lS5l) and Lewis
Tappan espouSed the cause of the OPP
messed and boldly advocated the rights
of the slave. Their action WAS not
without personal peril. for free speech
was not tolerated upon subject which
was 50 closely affiliated with the mer-
camille prosperity of the great metrop-
oils. The firm of Arthur Tappan y
Co.. of which Lewis was Il partner. oc-
cupied in IS26 a distinguished position
among the dry goods firms of New
York Their business was large and
prosperous. and they held ut that time
the uncnviable position of being ac-
knowledgcd ahOlitionists. In connec-
ton with David Hale, Gerald Halleck
and others they started the Journal of
Commerce. which instilled abolition
ideas among the merchants for many
wears. The brothers Tappan were lead
ing lights in the Chatham street Chapel,
where Phinney and Burchard. strong
abolitioniSts. preached the rights of
man without distinction of color. The
negro riots in New York i'll 1881 broke
out and the chapel was sacked, and the
mob then visited the residence of Lewis
Tappam in Rose street, who. being fore
warned. had removed his family, but
his furniture and books were thrown
into the street and burned. Other dep
relations were committed which the

WRECK OF THE AQUARIUM CAE.-
Government fitted up an aquarium car
tor the purpose of sending fish of differ
ent kinds across the continent to the
Pacific slope for the purpose of stocking
the rivers there. The ear was sent from
Charleston. y. H., and contained $50
900 worth of pr"pagating fish. The
train to which the aquarium ear was
attached met with AN accident about
thirty miles west of Omaha, by which
that car was wrecked and the fish
dumped into the Elkhon river. In
passing il treStle work over the Elkhorn
river, the bridge broke down with the
weight of the train and the fish ear and
the mail ear went over into the water.
The roadmaSter. who was Oh the engine.
was drowned. No other person was
injured, but the fish will find another
destination than the Pacific slope.

POSTAL CARDS AGAIN.-The postal
treaty with Canada has been amended
50 that "nr-cent stamp placed on a
postal card will carry it to any part of
the Dominion. This is slightly different
from the first and incorrect version of
the treaty, according to which the one
cent was to be collected on delivery.
Om department has also directed that
an undelivered postal card he returned
to the writer. In cases of importance.
therefore. it is well for the writer to
sign his address III full. The cards are

copies the following paragraph from a
Washington paper regarding Senator
Morrill,:
1t seems that he turned the amount
into the Treasury of the State. His
idea. as we learn. is that Vermont will
have to bear Il portion of the expense of
paving the salaries of those who accept
the back pay. and he thinks it Just. as
he does not want what was voted him,
to place the amount where it will do
the most good. in the way of justice to
his constituents. He does not seem to
doubt the right to receive the salary.

The Improvement of the Mississippi

The reader recullccts a Congressional
Convention held ut ST. Louis the middle
of MAY. at which not only members of
Congress. but Governors and other pub
lie functiomarirs were invited. The oh
i,ct of this meeting WAS the cndeavor,
on the part of the people of the Miss
i>>ippi valley. to create an interest
throughout the country i'll favor of i'm
proving the channel of the Father of
waters. Ia short the national Congress
i, I" hc asked to make appropriations
fnr this object. a. it now does for the
improvement of harborS on the coast.
The Convention referred to made Il
very plausible argument, taking for its
key note the text, Cheap transit bene-
/ fits all. and went on to show how the
/ produce of the grain fields of the nation
could he transported to the consumer
10y the way of the Mississippi river, for
rail. The y. Y. Times makes one point
in referring to this subject which the
west would do well to heed. for there is
no such arrogance agoing as that of Il
/ New England man who has moved west .
1t will hardly do to say that. as the
/ government furnishes light houses to
/ the coast of the East. and improves its
harborS. il must help To provide the
/ West with canals. The one Is IL duty of
government which it cannot evade. and
the performance of which confers no
benefit upon individual interests: the
other has been considered foreign to the
purpose of government, and. even If 1t
were not so, Is OF doubtful propriety.
And We object chiefly to the tone in
which these demands upon the national
treasury are made. Judging from the
language of some of the advocates OF
this movement. there is IL disposition tn
advance in behalf of the commercial
interests of Il section the Shareholders
plea that might makes right. There Is
always danger III sectional action upon
sectional interests: ont of that came the
gigantic war II ION which we have scarce
l. emerged.
