sides, the laud was put in spleno'o
condition for other crops. What our
farmers need to learn, and to teach
lhem was the great object of Offering
special premiums, is that good farm
ing pays better than poor and that
the net profit Of one acre may oe
greater than that of several, the al
ference depending alone upon 'he
method of cultivation.
When only forty bushels OF corn is
raised upon an acre of plo"ed lan''
the cost per bushel is probably NOV
far from seventy five cents, WHILE
when the yield is eighty bushels
the cost of production will not eS-
coed sixty cents per buahel, some
say Fifty. AT eighty,fvo cents per
buslel, a fair price for home-ralsed
corn, the net profit on forty bushels
to the acre would be about 81, while
on eighty bushels to tie acre II
would to $40, or, as some say, wy.
These figures are intended to he only
approximately correct, but they are
near enough to show that good hus.

This material is the refuse thread

in England in the poorer class OF

A Memornhle rrIn no Mound vernon.

Yesterday tho delightful and interesting
excursion to Mount Vernon from this city was
enjoyed by many tourists. The day was q
model one, and with tho inspiring scenery
along the banks of the world.renowned Poto-
mac, the soothing influences of the sweet
strains of music from the Italian band, tho
smiling, joyous faces on every side seemed
special agents to prepare one for the rare
pleasures before them. Embarked on the cle-
CANT steamer w. w. Corcoran, Captain L. L.
Blako in command, there was nothing want
Ing. After the usual stops at Alexandria
Fort Washington, etc, the party reached their
destination, where they were taken in charge
by Superintendent j. McH. Holinsworth,
who, in his kind and courteous way, escorted
them through the grounds ard building and
pointed out and explained tho numerous
objects and places of peculiar interest to
everyone, because they were once familiar to
the great Washington. After partaking of
lunch in the old family dining-room, or
kitchen, all were much interested in the
christening Of q bright and beautiful little
babe from the Centennial State, Colorado.
The name given was Hiram Vernon Stevens,
Vernon being in honor of the place and occa-
sion. The services were performed in tho old
State dining-roOm by the Rev. Robert NJ.
Baker, from Georgetown, ID. g., surrounded
by the parents, Mr. and Mrs. w. Il. Stevens,
the great uncle, Hon. Ii. S. Stevens, from Ar-
zona, and many others. The little hero of the
future (hopes), whose face was radiant with
smiles aud blooming with health, scarcely four
months old, has travelled over five thousand
miles, to be thus, as IL were, brought in com
parison and in contrast with all that can be
seen of the immortal hero of tho past. whose
history is rs familiar as household words to all.
Surrounded by the same beauties of nature in
which Washington always took such deep in
terest ana profound enjoyment in this grand
old room in which so many historic personages
had figured, such circumstances could not fail
to awaken an interest not often experienced
OH such occasions. 1t is to be hoped that this
little babe may prove to be public benctactor
after the example which was the subject of all
conversation OH this occasion and the figure
head in American history. After this the ex
curtionists repaired to the boat, which was
waiting, and soon found themselves again NJ

The argument in the motion for a new trial
in the case of Letha Matthews, convicted of
parjury, was resumed yesterday by General
HinlSle before Justice Hagner, in the Criminal
court. 1t will be remembered that on tLe trial
of Louisa Wallace, for the murder of her in.
FAINT child, this defendant gave certain testi-
mony, which, IL it had been true, would have
established the fact that it was impossible for
Louisa Wallace to have become u mother at
the time charged in the indictment. She was
Indicted for perjury and subsequently con-
vctcd. At the conclusion of the argument
the motion was overrued and the woman sen.
fenced to tho Albany penitentary for five
years. His Honor commented upon the ter
rble and rapid growth of perjury in this iuris-
dicton, and said when detected It ought to
meet with severe punishment, as it was one of
the means of checking crime and deterring
others from committing it,
