Sowing in the Shade.

Thomas Meehan, in bis seed cata-
logue, just published, says that most
failures with seed arise from not sowing
in partial shade. II the hot sun bursts
upon the seed beds while the seeds are
swelling, and cold follows, many may
rot before the plants reach the surface.
For large quantities, artificial arborS,
tall enough TO work under, are employ
ed. For smaller quantities, brushwood,
or the thin shade of cornstalks, or OF a
skeleton frame, answers well. Lattice
frames may be employed to exclude
birds. Many kinds Of seeds. with ex-
perienced persons, do not require shade
but for others shade is always recon-
mended. Very early sowing is import

the second season, the ground should
be kept clean and shaded the summer
through. These hints will do to re-

CAIRO'S CONDITION..

As might have been expected, the people
round about this city have a muchly exag-
geratcd idea Of the damage 50 far done
Cairo by the present Goods. The truth in
nutshell il, that Cairo property has not
been touched by either of the great rivers,
and, thanks to the energetic action of our
representative citizens and the hard work of
nearly all our people, is not likely to be.
Neither has there been here any unsettled
state Of society as might
naturally have been expected; with the
exception perhaps Of few hours, during
which false reports were being circulated,
the best Of order and complete quiet and
confidence prevailed throughout the city.
The few acts of lawlessness which were
committed, with the exception Of the fraud
committed against the city, were not
brought about by, nor had any connection
with, the prevailing cause Of excitement;
all Of which is probably more than can he
said for some Of the other cities along the
FLYERS banks which were in equal or great
er danger.
Yesterdays reports Of the rivers were
very encouraging. During the night pre-
vious the Ohio fell two inches at this
point and the Mississippi, two and
half inches. The fall continued here in
both rivers during yesterday. In the
morning the Ohio marked fifry-one feet on
the guagc; at one o'clock it had fallen Ia
fifty feet and eleven inches, at six o'clock
it stood fraction below fifty and eight.
ten,hs on the guage.
AT nine o'clock last night everything
was in an excellent condition on the Missis
sippi levee From four o'clock yesterday
afternoon until that hour, the river there
fell one inch. About forty men were on
duty all last night, and four barges, two
Of them loaded with sand bags ready fol
use in case of an emergency, we're also
kept there all day, and will remain there u,
long as there is any danger at all. Tit
levce was in excellent condition at thu
