1T has been generally supposed that
the boundless ssage lands" of the fai
West were necessarily to be given over
TO incorrigible barrenness. But those
vast regions, after many experiments
aud failures, are now being rapidly do
mesticated to agricultural uses. Where
formerly all was barren and desolate
waste of worthless sage brush, upon:
which a mountain goat would starye.
now the Chilli clover is found to grow,
and il being proftably raised to the ex-
tent Of Two and a half tons to the acre.
This will utilize for stock and grazing
purposes millions OF acres that had been
deemed absolutely worthless. These
"sage lands" are usually elevated
plateaux, beautifully undulating, and oil
the prairie character except in the mat
ter Of its sole indigenous product. At
the present rate Of development in those
piedmontane regions, We shall soon find
that "Great American Desert" which
figured SO eonspicuously in our school
Biographies a few years ago, blotted
out of the maps CT this continent.

Hon. Geo. E. Pagh.

The death of Hon. GEORGE i. PUGH,
as announced this morning, takes one
more eminent lawyer from the Bar of
Ohio. Reared in our midst from his in
fancy, Mr.. PUGH has always been well
known to all The people of Cincinnati; !;
and his genial nature made him favor
ite wherever he was known.
In political life Mr.. .PUGH had few su-
periors In boldness, sagacity, or power
OF impressing his ideas upon the public
mind. 1t twasin extemporaneous debate
that he greatly excelleG. Ardent and
tmpulsIve in his feelings, he came to the
contest reused to the very depth OF his
paiure; but, instead Of beclouding his
conceptions, this depth of excitement
merely Guickened his mental powers,
and at the same Time gave him utterance
In "burst of winged words" such as
were seldom accorded to public men.
Mr.. PUGH's mind was. eminently ana
ytic. He consequently never skir-
mished around great questions, whether
political or judicial. He attacked them
directly and in front, and drove
hrs analysis always to the very
senter of the proposition. On
this account he never discussed a
legal or political question without she'd
ding new light upon it. Hence it was
true OF him that, even when discussing
the dryest propositions Of law tnat
could be raised by demurrer, there new
or iailed to cluster around him throng
ofeager listeners Of members of the bar.
Anotherremarkable faculty, possessed
by Mr.. PUGH in most eminent degree,
was in his most exact and wonderful;
precision In the use of appropriate
words, either in advocacy or exposition.
1T was not enough that he employed
merely suitable language; he seizedupon
exact words themselves, and made them
incisiye In demonstrating his idea. They
came to him like inspiration. 1t was the
inspiration of genius. In this particu-
lar we never met the man who was the
equal OF GEORGE e. PUGH.
The possession of remarkable talents,
The high public stations he had filled,
the public spirited sentiments he al
ways entertained, the genial glow of his
ardent. nature when in the circle OF
his friends, all commended him
to 1.-The love and admiration Of the whole
community; and his departure will
leave vacancy in both professional,
and private circles that will be felt as
most mournful bereavement.
