LATER DETAILS.

A London telegram Of the 10th inst. says:
The Empress Eugene and all the household
of Chiselhurst we're present at the bedside of
Napoleon when he died. The Emperor showed
slight signs OF consciousness toward his last
moments. and spoke to the Empress twice in
a very feeble tone Of voice. His last indica-
ton of life was a smile when the Empress
knelt aud kissed her dying husband. She was
completely overcome by her emotions and
tainted at the bedside. The Prince Imperial.
who had been summoned by telegraph from
Woolwicll, arrived ct Chiselhurst fifteen min
utes after the death Of the Emperor. He was
greatly affected, and kissed the face of his
dead father several times. The Emperor died
peacefully. He passed away without the
slightest sign Of pain. His death is attributed
to syncope or embolsm.
Eugene knelt at his bedside several hours
after the death Of the Emperor, engaged in
prayer.
Teegraphic dispatches are being received
from distinguished persons in all quarters.
expressing the deepest sympathy for the
Empress.
Empress Eugene will soon issue proclama-
ton to the French people, announcing that
she assumes the regency during her sons
minority.
A London dispatch Of the 18th says
The post mortem examination of the En-
peror's remains shows that the immediate
cause Of death was failure Of the action of
the heart.
The report Of the post mortem examination
at Chselhurst says the failure of circulation
was due to the Emperor's general constitu-
tional condition. The bladder was found to
be diseased and the kidneys were affected.
The other organs were sound and healthy, but
death was simply question Of time.
The Empress last night was calmer, and re-
ceived several visitors from France. She went
several times to the room in which the body
lies.

WEIR or MEMORY.

DIR. johnson, it is said, never forgot
anything he had seen, heard or read.
Burke, Clarendon, Gibbon, Locke and
Tillotson were all distinguished for
strength of memory. When alluding
to this subject, Sir William Hamilton
observes "For intellectual power OF
the highest order none were distinguish
ed above the Grotius and Pascal, ana
Grotius and Pascal forgot nothing they
ever read or thought. Leibnitz and
Euler were not less celebrated for their
memory; and both could repeat the
whole Of the Eneid.' Donnellus knew
the Corpus Juris' by heart and yet ne
was one of the profoundest and most
original spectators in jurisprudence.
Ben Jonson tells us that he could repeat
all that he had ever written, and whole
books that he had read. Themistocles
could call by their names the twenty
thousand citizens Of Athens. Cyrus IS
reported to have known the name OF
every soldier in his army. Hortensl'is'
after Cicero the greatest orator OF Rome
after sitting whole day at "a public sale,
correctly enunciated from memory al
the things sold, their prices, and the
names of their purchasers. Neibuhr,
the historian, was not less distinguished
for his memory than for his acuteness.
In his youth he was employed in one OF
the public offices Of Denmark. Part OF
a book of accounts having been DESTROYED
he restored it by an effort Of memory.

q SOWING CEREALS TOGETHER.


Oflate. years the attention of several
experimental English agriculturalsts Gas
well as some Canadians) has been turn
ed toward the possibility of increasing the
yield per acre of various cereals when
sown together in the same field. There
seems little doubt that a much larger yield
can thus be obtained.
Instances are quoted where peas, oats
and wheat, all sown together, have pro-
duced very large yield. This plan has
been especially successful where various
sorts Of wheat alone have been sown to-
gether, or as we should term it. = mixed
sample of seed.
One man mentions a yield Of seventy
bushels of this mixed seed (wheaD per
acre, and this great crop was composed Of
four different sorts of wheat.
A most intelligent farmer in Pickering
told me he had succeeded in raising up
wards of sixty bushels an acre of mixed
wheat and barley
Another farmer, from Lower Canada
states eighty bushels of mixed barley
oats and peas, and also states that in hi:
section it is quite q common thing to thu
mix seed.

MORGAN HORSES.

So much has been said for and against the
MOrgans, that an impartial person unacquaint-
ed with them would hardly know what to
think. Linsley, in his pleasant work upon
the Morgans, tells all their good qualities to
advantage, but he does not tell, as he should
have done, that the dam Of Woodbury., the
most noted Of Justin Morgan's sons, had ring
bone, or that Woodbury. had bad feet. He
says nothing about Clifford, the best OF Wood
bury's sons, being ringboned or that Clifford
and his best son, old Green Mountain, had
bad feet.
Now with these facts known, can any one
doubt that the Woodbury. branch of the
Morgans would be liable to ringbones and
bad feet, without being told that this is the
case
Linsley tells us that Justin Morgan was
sound, that his son Bulrush was also sound,
and that this branch of the family is noted
for soundness, and for excellent feet. The
dam Of Bulrush being French mare, it is
fair to presume she had good feet, as the
French horses are uniformly good in this
particular; and thus can be seen the effect
of soundness and unsoundness in the dams,
when these two branches of the Morgan
family are compared. am satisfied that il
is always safer to breed sound mares to un'
sound horses, than unsound mares to sound
horses.
Justin Morgan is now generally admitted
to have been nearly thoroughbred. Color

name and tail pony built fourteen hands
high, and weighing about $50 lbs. Linsley
says that his head was straight but Nor
gan men now say that his skull has beer

is one of the strong characteristics Of tn,
Morgan family, it is fair to believe that tn,

MR.. HILLS CoTSWoLDS.

Thanking you for your intimation in your
remarks upon Mr.. Hills letter in your issue
of June 6, in answer to "Citizen," will
notice few of his statements, which l would
not do were it not that silence may be con-
strued into an acknowledgment Of them.
Mr.. II. processes to be very indignant at
having his little by-play ventilated, and di-
crosses very much from the subject, Uid. the
award Of first premiums at all the New
England fairs, as stated by j. w. b., but
which Mr.. IL. now qualities by adding cat
which he has exhibited" Probably j. w.
B. wrote just what he intended, and nothing
else.
1t seems little singular that j. w. b.,
residing in town with one who has devoted
so much time and energy to speciality for
fifteen years, just begins to discover mer-
its requiring the use of his pen. am not
aware that have tried to build myself up
as alleged by Mr.. Hill; certainly not at his
expense. When one attempts to steal they
usually go where there is something to steal
Neither have attempted to fost myself up
on the public as the receiver Of premiums
awarded to other people.
Mr.. II. carries the impression in his letter,
as he did to the committee, that he purchas-
ed the lambs of G. K. j., aud he repeatedly
stated while returning to Montpelier that he
should take tie lambs home, which is not in
accordance with the facts as stated by @. x
j.. when exhibiting the same sheep at the
Washington County Fair.
MIR. Hill proceeds to give facts from the
organ Of the New England Society, which
for 1870 are correct,-a double award Of
premiums being given. For 1871 he claims
an award of the first premium, but fails to
state that it was on the class known as grade
sheep.
Mr.. Editor, you will find in the article ol
Citizen referred exclusively to the award
of first premiums to the class of cotsioolds
or, as designated By The Society, the class o.
| lonq1oooLS. Then here Mr. ii. has failed Il
establish his own qualification of j. W. b.
statement, or even what accorded to hin
from memory, viz. one first premium il
1871. But to proceed He says he took ii
1872 five first premiums, but fails to say
that two of them were on grade and ia
sheep, without competition other than hi
own. This leaves his list precisely where
represented.
think Mr.. II. ought to feel grateful tha
he resides in u community which appreciate
good mutton, and which can indulge in choice
bits at prices which his sales would suggest
instead Of being dependent upon the marke
and the middle-men.

1t is among the old maxims Of business
men to keep silence when fool is speaking.
Thus in this wild presumption Of mine to
attempt to discuss the subject Of farm build
ings before the wise and prudent men of our
State, trust you will bear with me in my
folly, and settle down on this one fact that
whatever l may say does not debar any
man from that right which God has endowed
him with, of becoming wise or foolish, as a
matter of choice, thus exercising his free
agency in the adoption of any plan or
scheme that his indulgent nature may sug-
gest. And while l could wish that men in
this enlightened age might become more
wise, yet can but contrast the vast differ
snce between men of our times, whose
systematic, energetic, and industrious habits
have won for them great credit, and the men
whose habits and customs, are but the imita'
tions of their forelathers, whose aspirations
wero elevated but triAe above the lowest
level of their kind. And while We cast
serious reflections upon tho days of our fore
fathers, yet it is not without large degree
of allowance for the circumstances by which
they were surrounded. Notwithstanding
10 their day as in ours, we doubt not much
improvement might have been made that
was not made, aud far greater advance il
