UNwARRANTED TREssPAss.

When the report of the grand jury was read
in court, last week, the Judge, commenting
upon its various recommendations, was graft
fed to learn that the roads of the county are
represented to be in good condition and
he was further pleased at the announcement
that the county commissioners had promised
to continue improving their ways" His
Honor hoped, however, that they would not
commit similar blunder to the one recently
made by the commissioners of Lancaster
county. The public roads of Lancaster, said
the Judge, are considered to be in worse
condition than any roads in the State, it being
the generally received opinion that they have
not been repaired since Gen. Gates marched
over them during the Revolutionary war, and
that their bad condition then contributed to
the defeat of that officer at Camden-it being
impossible for him to get up his supplies in
time. But, continued his Honor, the commits
sioners of Lancaster, with commendable pub
lie spirit, determined to commence the task Of
working their roads, and one section of high
way was at once put in 6rst.rate order, at
which the commissioners and the public were
equally congratulatory, until the discovery
was made that the entire section of road that
had been so thoroughly repaired, was situated
in the adjoining State of North Carolina
This was an unwarranted trespass, the like of
which his Honor hoped the commissioners of
York would not commit.

Civil Rights in North Carolina.
At the opening of the Federal Court,
now in session in Greensboro, Judge Dick, on
charging the grand jury, fully expounded the
civil rights bill. The following is the sub
stance of his remarks upon this topic, as re-
ported by the Patriot:
ale declined expressing an opinion as to
the constitutonality Of the act, deemiDg such
expression premature. He gave about the
same construction to the operation Of the law
as is set forth by the Judges in Ohio and else.
where, holding that the act gives the colored
man no rights in this State that he did not
possess before under the old statute laws, with
the exception of trial in the Federal Courts,
if he so elect. He was positive as to the right
of the State to regulate the marriage ques-
ton and held that the law applied to rail
roads, steamboats,, hotels and theatres, and
did not necessarily place negroes and whites
together in these, but only entitled the color
ed man to the same accommodation us the
white man if he can afford it. Separate
apartments and coaches could be designated
for each race, and neither could infringe upon
the rights Of the other"
Spelling Matches.
"A new source Of amusement, known as
spelling bees or matches, has sprung up within
the past few weeks, and the mania for such
intellectual tournaments is becoming general.
While the diversion is entirely innocent it
also affords an entertaining means Of improve
ment. Tor the first time, we find the rules
of the game printed. The reader may feel an
interest in knowing them:
l. After the presiding officer and referees
shall have been presented, the schoolmaster
will at once take charge, and the sides for the
first contest shall be called off by the leaders
who have been selected.
2. The standard authority for spelling shall
be according to either Webster or Worcester.
3. The speller shall have the right to ask
the definition of word before spelling, and
also to except to the pronunciation ofa word
if he or she deems it lacking in authority.
4. When word is mis.spelled, it shall not
be again put in the same class, but the school
master shall give the correct spelling to the
audience.
5. The referees shall decide all questions
raised. In case of disagreement, the presiding
officer shall decide. All appeals shall be
made and decided on the spot before the spell
ing of word by contestant shall be hnal.
But this rule shall not preclude the correction
of an error by speller, if discovered and cor
rected before the final syllable is spelled.
The words selected for the contests shall
exclude, so far as possible, all words Of
technical, medical or purely scientific charac-
ter also, geographical and proper Names
and shall be confined to words in use In gen.
eral reading, writing and spelling.

A Word on Flowers,

Flower culture is the poetry of hort.
culture. AL poets are fond of flowers,
and the fair sex take to them as naturally
IS to sentiment. But, however fond one
may be of beautiful blossoms, the admi-
ration Uf them and their actual cultiva-
ton are two different things. Those
who have educated themselves to the
culture of flowers know the difficulty
they have often experienced in getting
them to terminate; yet florists have no
trouble, ever with the most delicate.
They know, from education and expert
ence, just the conditions necessary to
termination and growth. However we'll
read the amateur may be, it is only
practice and experience that can perfect
one in this work. A rule especially
applicable to seeds is that they should
not be sown deeper than four times their
diameter. Thus it will be seer that such
minute seeds rs c~alceolaris, cineraria,
poppy, etc., should be only just covered.
But then, If so, the sun is so hot at such
time as it will not do to Sow the seeds of
tender plants, that it is difficult to get
the requisite moisture. To insure this,
SOW, and sift the least possible soil over
them, water from a fine rose water. pot,
and then cover with moss, or even a
board, until they terminate. Afterwards
shade them until they get some strength.

June, and make fair crops. They viii
not, perhaps, be large; but they viii be
tender, and that is what is wanted.
Ruta bagas are usually sown sbou, the
25th Of June; bur we have always had
the best success with them sown early in
June, or evcn ia May. The German
sweet turnip is the best II this class for
table use.
The summer climate If the West il
usually too hot and dry for fla. turnips
but excellent crops may be often raised
by breaking q piece of sod deeply in
June, and then giving it repeated har-
rOwinRs until about he lst of August;
then sowing the seed thinly broadcast.
and covering by going over the land
once with the harrow inverted. Still, no
person ever made money in the West by
raising either fiat or Russia turnips,
except for table use. We have not a
suitable climate.
Turnips have been called the founda.
ton of English agriculture, and so they
are. The climate is cool and moist,
and with them, turnips mean fat stock,
just as great and small o fields should
mean fat stocNwith us. Corn must
always be u great fallow crop in the
West, just as roots are IN England.

Late Potatoes.

II, from any reason, the farmer has not
planted a sufficient quantity of potatoes,
Early Rose may be planted from June
20 to 25. They will, thus planted, avail
themselves of the cool weather in the
fall for ripening, and generally give good
crops, and be fit for table use up to the
LIST of the succeeding March, while the
early crop, that ripens off in August, arc
usually not fit for table use after the LIST
of January. If, however. the earlier
varieties are planted from the LIST to the
10th Of June, they come forward so as to
blossom and set the tubers during the
heat and drought of summer, and seldom
pay for the trouble and expense of cult
walton. These facts should always be
borne in mind, thus saving loss. With
the Peachblows, the case is different.
They require the whole season to grow
in, and are never ripe until the tops are
killed by frost. Therefore, always plant
PeachblGw potatoes early.

tres (seven and a half miles,, and even
beyond, attitudes hitherto unattainable
ard there to continue the curious OBJ
servations so unfortunately interrupted
by the death of the on board
the Zenith. His system is worth de
scribing, for it appears to possess the
double merit of averting asphyxia, and
the still more fatal danger of a sudden

voir of compressed air sufficient to main.

fort for several hours. Its capacity will
be a cubic meter, and the air will be
compressed into it to the extent of five
atmospheres. Now, since a cubic meter
of the air weighs nearly thirteen kilo.

will alone weigh about sixty five kilo-
grammes; however, the whole apparatus
with its contents and accessories is not
to exceed n hundred kilogrsmmes. As
SCOT as the balloon attains a height at
which breathing becomes difficult, the
aerondut will put on q sort of india
rubber divers dress, provided with an
alright mask for the face. This mask
has two tubes, which he inserts between
his teeth; one of them has a valve open
ing inward for the supply of pure air
from the reservoir; the other has a valve
opening outward for the expulsion of
the vitiated air. This constitutes the
breathing apparatus. To avoid undue
pressure, air from the reservoir is intro.
duced into the divers dress, which is
composed of double india-ru5ber stuff.

Successful Literary People.

during that time has become rich enough

Mrs. Stowe has made more than apy

HarrOWlng Corn.

There are many farmers who do not
harrow their corn: Why nOta II is the
best cultivation it ever gets. II the
weeds start before the corn gets through
the soil, harrow the ground all over,
without fear. unless it be trashy; in that
case, care must be taken that the teeth
do not get clogged; in fact, this al
must be taken in any event, that the corn
be not scooped out. If the teeth do not
clog with trash, harrow fearlessly. If
the corn up, we prefer a double drag,
with the forward tooth raised SO that it
will moi enter the soil to the full depth.
If the rows are equi-distant, and accn-
rately marked, this may be made to
cover two rows; and then, by going once
to each rOw. you work the soil twice,
and thus prepare it admirably for the
c~ultivator, which should follow almost
Immediately.
