Lawn Sowing,


In reply TO an inquiry rs 70 abea lawns
ought 70 be made aud the seed s0wn, we can
say that, ia a general sense, perhaps spring,
OF rather April OF Msy, is The best time but
they cau be sown AZ almost any time, even up
% the last Of wheat-sowiDg. We made
iTst-cIass lawn by sowing 10 August, prob
ably the most trying month Of the season. A
great deal depends upon The preparation Of
the ground which should be hauowed-in
deeply. Sow plenty Of seed-we should say
the following quaatity and varities per acre,
as recommended By william Saunders. Esq,
Of the Government Gardens a. Washington.
though the mixture differs bat little from
what we have used ourselves and offered 10
others 10 our columns One busbel Of Red
Top two bushels June Grass one quart
Timothy; and two pound White Clover.
This will not fail in agording beautiful aud
permanent lawn, if top-dre5sed with good
barn-yard manure every other year. II sown
in June, July or August, szaaH spriHkliagof
oats may be added to protect The young shoots
from the severe suns.
We would not adgise tie hauowins-in of
the seed, unless the implement be very light
Drawing over it a many branched Jnsl with
out leaves and not too heavy, viii answer very
well, though We prefer to SOW jus, before q
rain, letting iiat DO lie cOyerios or setting of

John Collins McCabe, D. D.

The Norfolk, Va, Landmark pays the fol-
owing tribute to the memory Of this distiu
guishcd gentleman, whose death we las: week

DR.. McCabe holds a hig rank among those
who know his works, not only as a poet but
an antiquary. His verses possess many mer-
its. such as elevation, sentiment and copions-
ness Of melody aud had be been born north
of our literary Tweed, his genius might hay
been permanently devoted to the attractive
pursuits Of literature. As prose writer his
sketches OF "0id Churches Of Virginia" ongi-
nally published u the Church Review, we
think, were admirable papers, and were large
ly used by Bishop Meade in his work, with
which. 10 doubt, our readers are more familiar
than McCabe's, though the latter WAS iucom-

those e>sentlnl qualities of style aud method
which achieve success. Bot the aspect IN
which the friends of the eloquent divine, for
eloquent and successful be was in his profcs

is too personal and too toll of tender recollect

The genial hum0r, and impetul generosity
the brilliant tax, the love of letters which
made him so charming rs a friend and com
panion, are things rather to be thought ol as

paragraphs for public inspection. For us, al
least, this task would prove too much, for IS
the Rector Of the happy parish 10 which We
lived years ago, DIR McCabe 81 eude red him
self to US and ours that We can hardly speak Of
his death with composure, or estimate his
character and worth in the dispassionate man
