A PROSPEROUS CAREER
New York Herald.


From an early age Mr. c. X. Garrison,
the happy bridegroom who recently mar
ried Mise Wilctt, devoted himself cloeely
to business, but it was not until California
loomed up as an El Dorado that he became
a conspicuous fgure-frst ia the Central
American. next in the Pacific trade. The
year 1853 found him at the head of an
important banking house in Panama.
Commodore Vanderbilt then desired him
to assume the San Francisco agency Of the
Nicaragua line of steamers with the
princely salary of 100000 per annum. He
received an additional salary of $25 600 as
the agent of several New York Insurance
companies, and st once settled down in
San Francsco. Under his able manage
ment the Nicaragua route became exceed
ingly popular and fresh tone was given to
every department of business on the Pa
ciic coast. Within six months after his
arrival in California Mr.. Garrison was
elected Mayor of San Francisco. Within
a month after his Inauguration he opened
war upon the public gambling hells then
abounding in the Golden City, and finally
succeeded in abOlishing them entirely.
Municipal ordinances were for the first
time enforced under his administration,
hack farce were regulated, Industrial
schools were established, foreign capital
was made to rear its share of the public
burdens, and the negroes of the Pacific
coast remember to day that Mayor Garri-
con fret iustituted measures for their edu-

avenue reads Virgil and Homer or not, or
even whether he can talk about the inte-

There are also favored girls schools in
the city which consume a great deal of
money in teaching fancy branches, while
the children in the ordinary grammar
schools gasp for breath and tread on each
others heels. They are pretty show
establishments, but the people do not pay
for snow. They wish their boys and girls
to learn to read and write and cipher, and
for that the schools were established.

Fund to it's proper and legitimate purposes,

for the exploration of a route for the Pacific
Railroad, and was the first to urge the con-
struction of telegraph line over the
Sierras. At the close of his official term
he drew a check for the entire amount of
his salary as Mayor and divided it equally
between the Catholic and Protestant or
phan asylums. On his return to New
York he became at once known as a bold
and successful fnancier, and to day be is
one of the leading steamship proprietors of
the United States. During the war Com

Fall PIowlnu for Oats.

Fall blowing for oats is most essential.
There is no grain, probably, so much
affected by being aown on land turned
in the fall, and left exposed to the action
of frost, as this. They require early
sowing, and by plowing in the fall this
can be accomplished much sooner in the
spring, than when left unplowed until
seeding time. Our heavy, hill lands dry
out much quicker, If this plan is follow
ed A few years ago we began plowing
for that fall when we had only about
one-third OF the piece done. In the
spring we commenced where we had
left off, and finished the piece. The
whole was narrowed once, with sharp
toothed harrow, before sowing and
twice after sowing. Mark the result
The crop OH the whole field was very
abundant, yet that in the center, or ON
just so much as we had turned In the
spring, lacted nearly as well filled. We
believe that we would lose nothing by
blowing in fall, and crossing in spring.
At least a shovel-toothed cultivatOr
should be applied before seeding. The
seed-bed must be light and mellow, if
we expect full remuneration for our
labor. What grain we raise, we must
study the peculiarities of that particular
grain, in order to be successful in its
production. A neighbor has always
calculated, every spring, to sowa certain
number of acres, at all events, as con-
sequence, his farm is completely worn
out.-Rupg NetO Yorker.

Old Wagons.

As u general thing, new wagon Is
very much preferred to an old one. A
very old one lis sometimes during
the first year after its purchase n
great deal more expensive than q
new one. Better pay $85 for a new
one which will run five or ten years,
without costing a cent for repairs, than
to pay $40 for an old one which it will
take ten dollars year, and cause a
great amount of inconvenience, and the
loss of much valuable time to keep in
order; and which by the time the new
one would need its first and inexpensive
repairs, will be utterly worn out and
useless. Better run in debt little for
a new one than to buy such an old one
as that. Indeed, very old wagons are
generally expensive property. No reli-
ance can be placed upon them. They
break down when mostly needed for
use, and it is an almost constant ex-
pense to keep them going at all. 1
lived in the house with man who re-
pairs farm wagons, and must say, that
tits astonishing how often they break
down. When one part is mended so as
to be strong and durable, something
else is sure TO give way. L have some
times thought that before L would pay
out as much as some men do in the
fruitless effort to keep old wagons in re
pair, would make them into tire-wood,
and either hire or buy something which
would prove more substantial.
