The judiciary committee of the

congress, gave consldt ration, and after
due delibciation and proper examine
lion, ON the 3rd of August declared,
with but one dissenting vote, the land
grant Of the Texas Pacific forfeited
and directed II resolution TO that
effect reported to the house. Upon the
principle that the major includes the
minor, this was also declaration of
forfeiture as TO the lands granted to the
New Orleans, Baton Rouge and Nicks.
Only because Of the important cues

Naw Rarinh ars

Beginners in stock-rearing should haye
enthusiasm and be confident they are
going to succeed. He who commences
with "no faith in business" will rarely
do we'll but it is as unfortunate as it is
common for beginners to have their eX-
pectations entirely too high. 1t is safe
to count only seGuring9aYerage results" !"
Exceptionally good results ought to be
confidently expected. We have not
found it easy to get herd of cows that
will give even 40 lbs. of milk day
each, or average 10 lbs. of butter week
ly, we do not find 1t easy our calves to
everage 500 lbs. at six months; nor 900
at twelve months. Steers which weigh
800 lbs. at twenty-four months are
often found, but we can not expect o
get such weights always; nor can we be
sure of getting our ten-mOnths pigs to
a weight ef 800 lbs. Some interesting
instances of rapid increase of cattle
have been recently given in the Gazette,
Many more might be given, but it
would be very unwise to base calcula-
tions of profit on like increase. Ami
mails fail to breed /; the young die or do
not thrive; disease comes; crops are
poor; pric es fall-any one of host OF
unfaVorable circumstances may come
to us, and there may be loss instead OF
profit. All this is not to discourage !;
nor need it. The men most apt to get
discouraged and abandon stOck-raising,
or any other business, are those who
engage in it without fully counting the
cost; with expectations of eXtravagant
profits. A slight reverse will often
dishearten slch men; while those VIII o
have carefully considered the whole
matter go steadily forward, and, in "a
series OF years, make a good profit.

Advice to a Young Farmer.

A young man just married and with
small means wants to know how to
start right in farming, This is impos-
ing upon us rather a serious task. We
OF course know nothing of his habits of
industry, his love of labor of his quail
fications for the business he seeks.
Above all we do rot know what kind
Of wife he has selected, and very
much depends upon this, for if he has
chosen unwisely he has made an al
most irreparable misstep. We will,
however, lay down some general prin-
eiples which may do others, If not him,
some good:
First-Buy none but the best land.
Ten acres of the best is better than
whole section of poor land.
Second--Keep it clear of weeds.
Third--Do nothing slipshod. Plow
well and cultivate thoroughly.
Fourth-Do everything in the right
season.
Fifth--Procure good implements and
take good care of them.
SiXth--Raise none but good animals.
Seventh-Keep strict account of in
come and expenses.
Eighth--Keep out of debt and clear
of security notes.
N Niutu--ISieC anu QOAb mOIh
early in the evening, SO that you may
have the chores done before the shades
OF night.
Tenth--H Have nothing to do with
travelling agents and strolling fiddlers
Deal with those who have local hab-
itation and a name.
EIeventh-Live peaceably with your
wife. If you can not, coax her to
go to Kamschatka and you go to Aus
tralia until you ventilate your affec-
tions.
Twelfth--Live at peace with all yonr
neigh bors, even il you have to make
the concessions and submit to all the
wrong,
Thirteenth-Take good papers and
keep yourself posted as to markets, news,
literature and politics.
Fourteenth-Study to know your
whole duty to yourself, your family,
your country and your God.
Follow these things and they will
naturally lead you into all the duties

prosperous and happy man,--San Fran

Clover and its Use.

Allow me to make some suggestions
as to The uses of clover. | will premise
by saying that clover is not hay or
forage plant; that whilst it may be
used for that purpose its greatest use,
in the economy of nature, is to restore
the fertility OF cultivated lands, and to
maintain that nice adjustment of the
atmosphere which adapts it to the
wants of all living things.
In early spring, wheat fields, and all
fields of small grain, should be sown
with the growing grain, and be de-
cided advantage to it, because clover
draws its food from the atmosphere,
taking nothing from the soil required
by the growing grain, but absorbing
the noXious gases and fluids which
cause rust, mildew and ,light. Alter
the grain is harvested the clover will
fully occupy the ground, and if OF
strong growth may be pastured in au-
tumn, but u,rhe following spring should
be allowed to grow undisturbed until
in full bloom. Then the most econom-
ical use it can be put to is to turn it
under with the plOw and plant the
ground with corn, which viii produce
full crop with but little labor in cul
tivation- But when last cultivated
>ay in the month OF Juiy--the ground
should be sown with clover seed, which
will grow with advantage to the corn,
will fully occupy the ground and fer
tilize it and take the place ofweeds and
wild grass, which will impoverish the
soil.
When the clover is wanted for hay
and seed--for, by a wise provision OF
nature, clover makes two crops, the

Top.Dressinr Meadows.

Meadows that have been cut close
should have frequent top-dressings of
some stimulating manure. Grass cut
short cannot assimilate as mucn say as
when lett long, hence the roots, as well
as the leaves, are restricted in growth.
and cannot penetrate as deep or spread
as far through the soil In search OF nu-
triment. In every case where it is prsc-
ticable, meadows should, after haying,
receive a top-dressing of bone-dust,
ashes or some well decomposed barn
yard manure, compost, or standard
commercial fertilizer. Coarse manure
is not suitable, as it is likely to smother
young plantscoming from seed especial
ly for 1t takes but very slight covering
to smother young clover plants during
hot weather. When stable manure is
used 1t should be old and very fine and
applied by some good manure spreader.
The more common practice of most OF
our farmers is to turn the cattle and
stock on their meadows after haying,
and let them eat down the stubble still
closer and take away every blade of
the new growth as fast as it appears,
which is mistake much to be regret
ted. In wet seasons blue grass and
red top may Withstand such treatment
for a season or two, but 1t is death to
timothy, orchard grass, and similar
coarse growing species. Meadows
should not be fall pastured, at least not
until vigorous second growth OF grass
has appeared, and then not enough to
lay the crowns of the plants bare by
the approach of cold weather. If
meadows are pastured late it should be
follow ed with liberal top dressing of
stable manure to act not only as a fer
tilizer, but as a protection to the
crow ms of the plants in winter. Hay
and pasture are the fcpdation OF our
agricultural wealth, but 1t is only in
the thIckly settled dairy regions that
the meadows and pastures are given
anything like fair treatment, and ev,n
in these no expense is incurred beyond
what is thought actually necessary to
produce good crop OF hay and fair
growth of grass for pasturing stock =

The Debt to Mothers.

Mothers live for their children, make
seli-sacrificeS Tor them, and manifest
their tenderness and love so freely that
tile name mothcr-is the sweetest in
the human lang age. And yet sons,
yOuthfully aged, know but little OF
the anxiety, the nights of sleepless and
painful solitude which their mothers
have spent over their thoughtless way
wardness. Those loving hearts go down
to their graves with those hours of
secret agony untold. AS the mother
watches by light, or pravs i'm the priv
acy OF her closet, she weighs well the
words she will address to her son in or
der TO lead him to a manhood of honor
and usefulness. She will not tell him
all the griefs and deadly fears which
beset her soul. She warps him with
trembling lest she say overmuch. She
tries to charm him with CHEEKY love
while her heart is bleeding. No worthy
and successful man ever yet knew the
breadth and depth of obligation which
he is under to the mother who guided
his steps at the time when his character
for virture and purity was so narrowly
balanced against a course of vice and
ignominy. Let the dutiful son do his
utmost to smooth his mothers pathway,
let him obey as Implicitly as he can
her wishes and advice; let him omit
nothing that will contribute to her
peace, rest and happiness, and yet he
will part from h er at the tomb with the
debt to her not half-discharged.

country would be improved if the wild
grasses and weeds were forced to give
place to clover, for we know that nox-
ious gases and vapors are continually
arising from The earth. Some of them
are from deeaying vegetable and ami
NAL matter, and some OF them are mi

and injurious to the health of man
Clover, by means of its chemical pow
ers, not only absorhs these gases and
feeds upon them, bnt freely gives out
oxygen, which nnites with them, anu

There are countries where the al
most exclusive diet OF the masses is

The best and cheapest food for the
dense POPULATIONS OF Asiatic countries,
therefore, is rice; and since, from the
general poverty ei the people, varieties

Gus nature has given them most freely
that kind which is among the most nu-

We venture to affirm that when the
cost, the percentage OF nutriment and
the wholesomeness of beans are consid-
cred, there is not in the world single
article of food that can compare with
them. There is no vegetable food that
answers so well as substitute for
meats While they have so much to
recommend them in other respects,
they have no rival in point OF economy.
