W. J. Clark, of College City, writes to Colusa (Cal) paper the result of very valuable experiment made by him. He says: Enclosed please find two grains of wheat that I have been experimenting with for the last six weeks. The present sprouts that you will find on them are the fifth that have been by me sprouted. They were each time dried off until there was nothing of the sprouts left, and then placed in water again. One time they lay in a saucer in a win dow ten days to dry, and the grain turned black and seemed entirely parched by the heat of the sun through the glass, but, to my astonishment, af terplacing them in water, they again sprouted. I am therefore thoroughly convinced that wheat Batter sprouting and becoming dry, will sprout again" This experiment has cost Mir Clark nothing, but it has given & world Of information to the farmer.

Sheep Breeders Association it was resolved to be the expression of the convention that the operation of washing sheep before shearing is one that can be profitably dispensed with, and that sheep if properly cared tor so that their fleeces are kept free from all extraneous matters will be better and their wool will be in better con dition for the buyer and seller if un- washed; and that washing the heavy wooded Merinos is not considered profitable to the wool grower, and that it should be discarded generally Prdtrie Fdrmer.

drove of contraband cattle. After
cautious march, the valiant soldiers came
upon the smugglers camp, and then dis
covered. to their pretended surprise, that
the many absent members of their CON-
pany made up the gang of smugglers.
It is not recorded that the patriots
spilled any blood on this occasion. In
Lowell 'fort" was erected near where
the Congregational church now stands.
and committee was appointed to look
after the safety of the town. The fort
was never used, but it served to brace up
the courage of the timid.
When peace was declared, the valley
was in almost as bad condition as
though it had been invaded by an enemy.
The inhabitants to large extent had
fed, many lots which had been consider
bly, improved had been abandoned
farming and other legitimate occupations
had been neglected, while many of the
citizens had become "speculators and
smugglers. They suffered all the de-
moralizatlon incident to war. Some of
the former settlers returned from time
to time, but many did not wish to again
encounter the hardships before endured.
Of some Of the Inconvenience and mis-
fortunes of the few years succeeding the
war, our next paper will tell.

brought to light at Woodsville, N. H.,
opposite Wells River, by the discovery
of the remains of an abortionist's victim
buried in a sand bank. Capt. Getchell,
in excavating for cellar near the
Amoonosuc river Saturday, came upon
some bones which on examination by
physician proved to be those of a girl
Is years old. They were buried in clean
sand only l IL feet below the surface,
and so situated as to show that the body
had been doubled up and the head
twisted under. The victim was a pre-
possessing girl, good scholar, and of
excellent family, but was seduced, and
on the flight of her betrayer visited an
abortionist, whose operation killed her.
The family gave out that the girl had
followed her betrayer. and suspicion
never rested on them.
