ton cases in the House of Representa-
tives, mostly from the southern states.
Violations of law and fraudulent
practises were the alledged causes for
contesting; large mass of testimony
was taken in these cases, which reveal
ed the fact that, in many instances,
hundreds of voters were repulsed from
the polls, and in other ways denied the
right to vote. Only five or six of these
cases were reached during the session !;
the fraudulently elected members were
rejected, and the rightfully chosen
ones were seated. The same spirit
of violence and fraud which prevented
fair elections in many states of the
South, two years ago, has already given
evidence of being repeated in the COM
ing fall elections. There are honest
Republicans who counsel us not to stir
these matters, but to let them pass for
the sake of peace and harmony be-
tween the northern and southern Sec
tions of the Union. Such advice is re-
spectfully declined. The country has
not yet fallen On such evil times as to
require the sacrifice of the rights of a
portion of the American people in CT
der to preserve peace and harmony.

WINTER WHEAT IN KEN9SHA
COUNTY.

To THE EDITOR It is generally
known that quite a few tanners. in
different parts of the county, made the
experiment of sowing a smallpiece of
winter wheat last fall. It void be in
teresting to know how theseexperi-
ments resulted, and what are tie sup
posed causes of the successes antof the
failures; for some succeeded and,thers
failed. / will relate an instsne of
success that may be Of interest o your
readers. Mr.. n. d. EdwardssoWed
last fall a piece of land measurag ~
acres to winter wheat. The lad is
closely protected on three sideswith
timber, and, though on the NORA the
timber is at a greater distane, the
piece is well sheltered from theWind i.
The grain was threshed art the
yield was A bushels, or at the nte of
25 bushels per acre. The wheats fine
in quality, being very plum and
bright. This wheat will doubtless be
in demand for seed at an extra good
price.
I have been credibly informed that
one of our most intelligent and inter-
prising farmers, Mr.. Chas. PHILIPS, of
Salem, succeeds every year in railing a
piece of winter wheat, and usually of
very good quality. / believe he atrib-
utes his success to top dressing TIN seed
bed after the wheat is sown. l NOW
of other cases where success hasbeen
secured by this practice; the invaluable
rule being to SOW no more land than
can be thoroughly top dressed, with
we'll rotted manure on hand.
After threshing is done it is to be
hoped that the correspondents Of the
TELEGRAPH in their several localities
will give further reports of expert
ments in sowing winter wheat.
