Mr.. H. R. STEVENS:
Dear Sw-In the year 1860; while residing at Port

For a period of six years it continued to increase

lime and CrODS

The bulk of all fertile soils consists
of three earths, to w.t. silica, alumina,
and lime. Unmixed with clay, sand or
other organic and inorganic substances,
lime consists Of the oxide of the me-
tahc element calcium, and as it enters
into the composition of all plants, it
necessarily occupies a large place in
Natures laboratory. Chemistry tells
us that it has an affinity for water and
carbonic acid; when applied to the
land it absorbs water, forming hydrate
Of lime; this hydrate then absorbs car
bonic acid, so that lime, although ap-
piled to the land in the caustic state,
really exists, shortly aftersits appica-
ton, in the form Of carbonate, along
with little sulphate s.nd phosphate as
previously mentioned. Lime has far
long time been used as a fertilizer;
when land previously unworked is
brought into cultivation, or when. worn
out pasture land is broken up, lime is
generally applied, 1t effects chiefly
the vegetable matter contained in the
soil, promoting its decomposition, and
thus rendering it available as plant food.

Alfalfa.

This mparatively new clover,
known as alfalfa, is lucerne slightly
modified by the climate Of Chill and
California. It is a perennial plant
that is, it continues more than two
years-and in the state of New York
fields Of it can be seen where the seed
was sown over fifty years ago. The
common red clover is biennial, shorter
lived, and therefore better suited for 8

equally as hardy as red clover, and is
peculiarly adapted to rough hillside
lands, rocky, etc., that cannot be cult.

winding amongst the rocks until it finds
moisture, and, once established, it I'M
proves every year.
Sow the seed broadcast on very clean
land as soon as possible, from ten tc
twelve pounds of seed to the acre. Al
all events, fit Immediately half acre
or an acre of clean land near the barn
and give it a fair test as green food fol
both horses and cattle. There is no risk
however, IN sowing hundred or more
acres.
Never pasture it or cut it closely the
first year, but let it grow enough in the
fall to make a good winter protection
for the roots. Do not pasture it the
first year when the soil is wet o.
muddy.
The seed of alfalfa when fresh ane

One Variety Of Poultry.

Our experience is now decidedly in
favor of one variety of poultry, after
breeding from four to six varieties.
We disposed of all this season but one
breed Partridge Cochins-and the re-
suit is astonishing. We have more and
better chickens from this one breed
than from all the breeds combined,
when we had the greatest variety, for
with more than one variety they must
be kept up, with only limited run Or
an occasional airing outside, and poul-
try cannot bear confinement in the
summer. IF they do not die, they do
not lay so well, nor do their eggs hatch
SO well, and the young chickens are not
so healthy. But where only one breed
is kept and allowed to have a free
range outside, they are healthier, and
if well provided with good feed, pure
water, lime, gravel, and clean, comfort
able quarters, they ley great abund-
ance of eggs, and all these eggs will
hatch. Our hens this season all came
off with not less than one dozen chicks,
each strong and healthy, and being al
lowed free range, have grown up
healthy and large, and make the finest
large flock of poultry We ever saw.
Just here we will say that they are
not for sale, as we use tlfem all, and
more, too, for club premiums.) We
give this illustration of our experience
with variety of breeds, and would adj
wise our readers all to raise some one
of the improved breeds, but only one
breed, if they desire the greatest sue

OUR SCHOOLS.
VI sectional contentious, and in
respect to our common schools. [
have only this to say That in my
Judgment, tho man or party that
would involve our schools in politi-
cal or sectarian controversy is an
enemy to the schools. Tie common
schools are safer under the protecting
care OF all the people than under the
control OF any party or sect. They
must be neither scctarian nor parti-
san, and there must be neither divis1
ION nor misrepresentation of the funds
Tor their support. Likewise regard
the man who would arouse or foster
sectional animositics and antagon-
ISms among his countrymen as q
dangerous enemy to his country. All
the people must be made to feel and
know that once more there is estab-
llshed purpose and policy under
which al citizens of every condition,
race and color, will be secure in the
enjoyment Of whatever rights the
Constitution and laws declare or re-
cogniz2; and that in controversies
that may arise, the government is
not partisan, 6ut, within its consti-
'utIonal authority, the just and pow,
eriul guardian of the rights and
safety of all. The strife between the
sections and between races will cease
as soon as the power for evil is taken
away from a party that makes poll
ncal gain out Of scenes of violence
and bloodahcd, and the constitutional
authority is placed in the hands OF
men whose political welfare requires
that peace and good order SHALL b.
preserved everywhere.

am in entire accord with the plat
form of the Convention by which [
have been nominated as candidate
for the office Of Vice President of
the United Safes. Permit me, in
conclusion, to express my satisfaction
at being associated with candidate
Tor the Presidency who is first among
his equals as a representative of tic
spirit and Of the achievements of re-
form. In his official career as the
Executive of the great State of New
York, he has, in comparatively
short period, rctormed the public
SCI vice and reduced the public bur.
dens, 80 as to have earned ut once
the gratitude of his State and the ad-
mi:a!!on OF the country. The people
know him to be thorougly in earnest;
he has shown himself to be possessed
OF powers and qualities which fit
hIm, III an eminent degree, for the
great work OF reformation which
this country now needs; and if he
shall be chose by the people to the
high Office of President Of the United
States, | believe that the day of his
inauguration will be the beginning OF
new era Of peace, purity and pros

lmpunity. The financial policy of
the Government, if, indeed, it de-
serves the name of policy at all, has
beon in disregard of those laws, and
therefore has disturbed commercial
and business confidence, as we'll as
mnderod a return to specie payments.
Ono feature of that policy was the
resumption clause of the Act of 1875.
which has embarrassed the country
by the anticipation of compulsory
resumption for which no prcpara ion
has been made, aad without any as
surancc that it would be practicablc
The repeal of that clause is necessary
that the natural operation of financi-
al laws may be restored, that the
business OF tho country may be re-
lIeYed from its disturbing and de-
pressing influence, and thai return
to spoclo payments may be iacilitat,
cd by the substitution of wiser and
more prudent Legislation, which shall
mainly rely on a judicous systom OF
pubic economies and official rctrench
menls, and above all on the promo.
ton Of prosperity i'll all the industries
of the people.
l do not understand the repeal of
the resumption clause Of the Act OF
1875 to bo a backward step in our
return to spccic aymcnts, but the
recovery OF false step; and although
the repeal may, for q time, be pre-
vented, yet the determination of the
Democratic party on this subject has
now been distinctly declared. Therc
should be no hind.anccs put in the
way of return to specie payments.
"As SUCH hiudrancc," SAYS the
platform of the st. Louis Conven-
ton, "wo denounco tho RESUMPTION
clause OF the Act Of 1875, and Dc
maud its repeal"
l thoroughly believe that by pub.
lie economy, by official retrench-
mcnt6, and by Wise finance enabling
us to accumulate the precious met
ais, resumption ct an early period is
possible, without producing an ''ara
Iliiclal scarcity Of currency" or dis
tnrblng public or numerical credit;

there have been frequent inter fer
enccs. Our platform truly says that
many industries have been impov-

commerce has been degraded TO an
inferior position on the high seas;
have been diminished;
agrcul urc has been embarrassed
and tho dstress Of the industrial
classes demands that these thing
shall be reformed.
The burdens OF the people must
also be lightened by great change
in our system Of public expenses
The protligate expenditures which
increased taxation from five dollars
per capita in 1860 to eighteen dollars
in 1870 tells its own story of our
need of fiscal reform.
