MRS. BRYAN, the Independence lady
who, under the influence of a mild sort
of insanity, travelled off to Washington
alone, and, seeking an interview with
the President, preferred a petition that
he issue a proclamation emancipating
the women of the land from slavery, and
was sent to the Insane Hospital of the
District of Columbia, arrived home on
Tuesday, in charge of one of the attend
ants of that institution. Mrs. Bryan
has been an inmate of the Hospital here
and was discharged as incurable and
harmless. There are people who would
fail to see any indications of insanity in
her mission to the Capital.

FLAX SEED.
It's Advantages as a Crop.

l. 1t is the best preparation for a
wheat crop, insuring from three to six
bushels more per acre following fax
than when sown in succession. The
same is true of oats, barley or corn. No
cash outlay for seed, three pecks per
acre, costing less than half as much as
with wheat.
2. 1t affords a good relief from the
one crop" system. 1t pays ordinarily
as we'll as other crops and some seasons
much better; have never known a fail
ure in Flax.
3. Nothing is better than Flax with
which to seeddown to timothy or clover.
4. Flax comes off from ten days to
two weeks before wheat is ready to cut.
No fear from chintz bugs.
5. If cut at the right time, can be
harvested as cheap as a crop of hay, and
secured from rain. The straw and chaf
are eagerly eaten by stock, and are fully
worth an equal weight Of good hay.
