An Indian on Indian Corn.

Some years ago Peol Susup. an educated
Indian Of the Penobscot tribe (Maine)
wrote the following account Of maize or
Indian weachin, and is believed bv them to
have originated in Mexico. When white
men discovered America they found Il In
cultivation over the the two continents,
from latitude 40 degrees south to the island
OF Orleans in the st Lawrence river.
That was probably its extreme limit In the
Northwest. How it could have been prop
agated and rirened SO far north OF Its ma
tive tropical home has been q subject OF
curious speculation. Every cultivator has
doubtless noticed how difficult 1t is to per.
feet the plant from seed obtained at any
considerable distance south Of the region
in which he endeavors to raise 1t. Seed
procured from New York will seldom or
never perfect itself in Maine. and 1t is
deemed unsafe to plant that brought from
Massachusetts. How then did the Indian,
without other agricultural education than
that derived from his own unrecorded and
imperfect observations, push its produc.
ton from the Gulf OF Mexico to the St.
lawrence: lie certainly accomplished
this result ages before the white man visit
cd him, and It was to the natives the early
settlers of New England were indebted tor
their seed corn OF the varieties now In use.
An annua, plant may extend itself east or
west along the isothermal line by acciden.
tai causes, but It could not have moved In.
to a colder climate, requiring cultivation
and care, without great attention and appf'
cation OF more than ordinary skill. 1t
must have required ayes to have been ac'
climated in that country now constituting
Canada and the New England States.
The Indian has his tradition regarding the
method by which the northern varieties ut
corn were obtained and perfected. Like
all the grasses and many other annual
plants, corn grows upwards by joints or
section, The Indians observed that the
time to produce and perfect joint was
one change Of the moon, and Us the ear OF
corn starts only from joint, there was
necessarily about seven days between the
forming Of the ears and successive joints.
Now II an car could bc made to start at the
second joint, it would mature some five
weeks in advance of that which should be
formed on the seventh joint. BY constant
" selecting the lowest ears, he finally FRO
duced varieties that produced from joints
lower than the original plant. and very
much earlier. Thus IN time corn was pro-
duced, small in stock and ear and adapted
to the short summers OF the North. Slow.
" but permanently it passed into the eight
rowed ear, producing constantly on the
lower joints, and ,ipening in three months
from the day ot planting.

English and American Homes.

wooden house OF the country districts ot
America is poor substitute for the Eng

Even in large cities it is a most rare and
unaccustoncd thing to see Il family dining

England than in America and the home

Diamonds in Oconee.

It is often said we go from home to hear
the news. This is exemplied this week in
the statement made by Seneca City corres-
pondcnt of the Charleston Ne,os end Courier,
that diamonds have been discovered in Oco-
nee. The correspondent says:
SENECA CRY, S. G.. May 28.-There has
been much excitement in our community for
the past few days caused by the discovery of
diamonds in an old gold mine. For years
gold mining has bceu carried on 70 greater
or less extent in this vicinity. Some two or
three years since Col. John Cochran mined
quite extensively, with what success was not
generally known.
Some two weeks since MIR. Joseph Blanny,
hailing from England. came to Seneca on his
way from Western North Carolina, prospect
ing for mica. aud was induced to 20 down
and look around where Col. Cochran had
been mining for gold. lilo went to pannpg
on farm adjoining tho Cochran mine, and
was rewarded by washing out several dia-
monds. He sent some of them to Tiffany &
Co., Of New York, and one of their experts
came out and pronounced them genuine
straw colored diamonds, equal to the African
diamonds. MIR. Blanny has purchased eight
hundred feet square from the owners of tho
land for $4,000, and proposes to go regularly
into the business, not as stock company,
but on his own account. S.
