Waushakum Farm.

1t was my privilege, in company with
about hundred farmers and others, to
visit the above-named farm, at South
birmingham, Mass, on the afternoon
of July 20. The owners, the Sturtevant
Brothers, had issued card in their
journal, the Scientific Farmer, several
days previous, inviting the public to an
informal field meeting on the said after
noon, to see the corn fields of the farm,
the tools used in cultivating II, and the
stock, and to hear what DIR. Sturtevant
had to say about his experiments. The
day was pleasant for such meeting
warm and cloudy, with fresh south
west wind, threatening showers, but
there was no rain of consequence to in
terfere with the comfort of the company
Tho drive from my home was over
fourteen miles of rather billy road,
known as the Worcester turnpike,
through the thriving villages Of Grant,
Vile and Natick, and through very
poor, rocky tract of land, mostly occu-
pied by forest in various stages OF
growth.
Having arrived at the farm, The hos
pitable hosts invited us all to q cool
drink of lemonade, and then to proceed,
without farther ceremony, to the corn
fields. We were first shown some seed

But eraser waited not the scythe,
But yielded to the winsome Sower!

THE DEATH OF THEIRS.

a dispatch dated Paris Sept. 4, gives the
following particulars of the death of e1-Presi-
dent Theirs
ExPresident Theirs arose early on Mon
day and worked until z 80, when he went for
an hours walk on the terrace He afterward
wrote until noon. At noon he took luncheon
with good appetite, but toward the end of the
repast he stammered out few words, his
mouth contracted, his eyes became covered
with film and he was carried to his bed.
His physicians ordered mustard plasters and
leeches. nj. Theirs did not appear entirely
aware OF his danger. His prostration was
complete after twenty minutes had elapsed.
To-day number of well known politicians
went to st. Germaine to condole with Ma
dame Theirs and kilograms of coincidence
were received from all parts. President Mac
Mahon, who is at Mount Brison, upon being
informed of the death of M. Theirs immedi-
ately telegraphed to Paris to summon cabi-
net council to arrange for solemnizing the
funeral with the greatest pomp. President
MacMahon thinks that in the presence of such
loss to the country all divisions should for
the time disappear in order, by great dem
onstration, to pay honor to one who has rem
dercd such great services to France. Presi-
dent MacMahon has sent telegram of con-
dolence to Madame Theirs, and the Official
Journal will tomorrow publish decree an
nouncing that the expenses of the funeral will
be borne by the state. 1t is believed that the
corpse will be inferred in the 1nyalides. The
whole Republican press expresses profound
and sincere sorrow. Private kilograms from
the provinces show that NJ. Theirs death is
regarded throughout the country as national
calamity. Most of the evening papers appear
with black borders, and even journals opposed
to NJ. Theirs generally render homage to the
illustrious patriot, although they mingle with
their praises disapproval of his most recently
expressed opinions

RUSSIAN FEELING TOWARDS ENGLAND AMI
| THE UNITED STATES. is a great deal OF
bitter feeling among the Russians against
England for the part she has taken in the
present quarrel. When We tell the people
here that we are Americans they are pleased
to find we are not English. The people in
Russia like everything that is American. One
cannot help noticing this popular feeling
American goods are favorably received every
where within the Cars dominions Over
two thousand American sewing machines are
sold annually in Karkoff, a city of 10000 in
habitants. Owing to the manner in which
England has shown her sympathy with the
Turks, it will be almost impossible henceforth
to sell English goods or machinery in Russia
Quite large trade had been built up in agri-
cultural machinery but this war viii kill it.
American manufactures will doubtless replace
the English, and American merchants should
take advantage of this favorable opportunity
to send their goods to Russian markets The
merchants express the opinion that English
business hor, es will not be able to collect
their bills in Russia for many years, if at all.

AN OLD TIME OUTFIT.

Under this head the Eureka Sentinel tells
the following
We saw a regular old time outfit going
down Main street yesterday-one that OBJ
tanned before railroads spanning the continent
were thought of, and the long and weary
journey from the Missouri river to the Pacific
coast was a serious and precarious undertak-
ing. We interviewed the proprietor of the can
vas covered wagon, and learned that he was
Kansas emigrant, who had become tired of a
constant struggle with grasshoppers and was
seeking a refuge from that pest on this coast.
He started from his old home last May, and
had diverged from the route at Salt Lake,
with the intention of debouching Arizona
wards, but meeting with discouraglng reports
of the agricultural resources of that country,
had retraced his steps, and was now on his
way to Northern Idaho. He seemed to en-
terrain very poor opinion of this part of the
country, and was anxious to find section
where the grass was not quite so short-an
anxiety and hope that his team evidently
shared in. All the leading features pertain
ing to an emigrant outfit was part of this
travellers equipment. The old lady, freckled
and sharp visaged, her face enclosed in the
time honored ''yaller' sun-bonnet, occupied
front seat; while in the background the
tow headed brood of half dozen children,
ranging from ten years old down to the in
FAINT, filled up the body of the wagon and
tumbled around over miscellaneous collec-
ton of flour, bacon, etc
A camp stove was tied on the tail board
and bucket swinging underneath. A poor
old COW was hitched to the rear, and looked
as if she was totally Indifferent to surround
ing circumstances and tired of a rowing exist
ance. The old man, dressed in butternut
jeans, halted his team in the neighborhood of
the Consolidated and spent an idle hour in
viewing the smelling operations His aston
ishmeat was unbounded when it was ex-
planned to him that those rocks in the dump
contained bright gold and silver, and that
this was the process by which it was obtained.
He made particular inquiries as to the
abundance of ore in the vicinity, and was
rather disappointed when he learned that it
was taken out of hole 900 feet deep. 'He'd
just be DANCED if he'd go down to airy such
place for all the stamps in the country and |
was giving vigorous vent to his views, when |
he was recalled to the wagon by his better
half who wanted to know eff he was going |
to stay there all day and let his family be
poisoned by the nasty stink of them thar
smoke pipes. He "allowed that it was
right powerful smell, wus than regiment of
skunks," and mounting the seat proceeded
down the canyon, in search of an eligible
camp for the night. He will squat on a quar-
Ter section of Government land up in Idaho
md grow up with the country, unless Chief
Joseph GRASSES his har."
