Winter and spriES Wheat.

The distinction between winter and
spring wheat is a difference in the time
OF sowing and not III the variety. Any
spring wheat can be changed into win
ter OF winter into spring, merely by
gradually changing the time in which
either - s3Ea By gradually sowing
spring wheat elUlIer every season, in q
few years 1t can be soWn in the fall
and become winter wheat Or Just be
fore the close of winter, sow winter
wheat and lei it terminate slightly,
then let 1t freeze up till spring, and
next year it can be successfully sown in
the spring. And it is universally con-
ccded that winter is better than spring
wheat, It l. q natural conclusion that
The sooner wheat can be safely sown in
the spIing the nearer Will it attain to
the quality OF winter wheat. The diff

IS not IN variety, but IS owing chiefly
TO the variety Of soil on which It is
grown.
IL Is said that the hard wheats are
nil natives Of warmer climates, such as
Italy, Sicily aud Barbary The soft
Whcats are from more northern eli
mates, such as England, Russia, Bel

IS, however, one exception to this gem

wheat is hard, and for this reason it
has been contended that it was not
native Of Poland, bUt was introduced
there from Il miider climate. The
English atmosphere is so humid that it
is impossible % ripen any wheat hard,
but in many eases It requires artificial
heat 10 harden 1t before 1t can be

climates materially change the nature

TELEGRAMS TO THE STAR,
The Beecher.Tiiton Scandal.


NEW YORK, June 25.-TheodOre Tiltou has
written long letter TO Rev. Leonard Bacon,
moderator of the congressional council recently
held In Brooklyn, in reply 20 certain misrepre-
sentations, which be saws were Intentionally
made by that gentleman on his character m
his address at New Haven on the BROOKLYN
council. Tilton goes back TO the time of the
severance from the congregation OF Plymouth
church, in January, ISL. when the step, he
says was determined on by him in consequences
OF knowledge that the pastor had committed
against him an otfense, which he forbears TO
name or characterize. Referring 10 the state
ments OF Dr. Bacon on the matter of his (TIl-
tons retirement from Plymouth church. he
gives an extract from letter Of Sherman, clerk
OF the church, in which that gentleman states
that Tilton had informed himself and several
others that he Lad " ithdrswn and that his name
ought TO be struck from the roll. The next
point touched on is the assertion of DIR. Bacon
that Triton had either had a malicious heart or
crazy brain, which is stated by Tilton aud en-
dorsed by the affidavit OF a newspaper reporter
TO have been uttered. as well as the assertion
that Mrs. Tilton had occaSioued the whole
trouble while in a half crszed condition. in a
mediumlstic trance, by Shearman, clerk of the
church. A full written apology for the calumny
this circulated was demanded from Shearmap
and promptly presented by that gentleman TO
Tllton in the presence of Beecher. Among the
correspondence included IN the letter % Mr.
Bacon is the following under tue date OF Nav
