Chemistry of Corn During Growth.

NJ Leplay Gin Complies Rendus) has given
the conclusions he has drawn from the analy-
sis of the different organs of maze at three
different periods of its vegetation. He has
found that at the end of the first period of
vegetation (lst of July) potash and lime are
present in all parts of growing maize; in the
soluble state in combination with vegetable
acids in the juices, and also in the insoluble
state in the tissues. From this time, howev-
er, no more potash appears to be taken up
from the soil; but that already present in the
plant in soluble organic combination under
goes an extraordinary migration from one part
of the plant to another. During the second pc
riod the growing ear is supplied with potash
entirely at the expense of the stalks
which lose as much as 80 per cent of the
quantity present in them at the end of the
frs: period but in the third period the pro-
portion of this base in the stalks is restored
to the extent of about 25 per cent, the reserve
drawn upon now having previously been
stored up in the leaves. The quantity of
potash in the roots is not affected, or only
very slightly diminished, during these move
ments. On the other hand, whilst the total
quantity of potash in the plant remains
stationary, the amount of lime in organic
combination in the different parts of it is in
creased during the second and third periods
(July lst to September lsD by about 140
per cent, the first augmentation taking
place in the stalks, from whence, as the
plant approaches maturity, it passes in
considerable quantity into the ear, and
especially into the seeds. During the
formation of the reproductive organs the
potash in organic combination with the tis-
sues is gradually diminished and disappears
entirely from the stalks. being replaced by
lime. The vegetable acids combined with
the potash and lime are considered to have
their origin in the carbonic acid taken up by
the plant from the soil in the form Of carbon
ate or dissolved in water. According to NJ.
Leplay. this transformation is effected by %
reduction Of carbonic acid or elimination of
oxygen; (2) condensation or assimilation of
carbon; (3) assimilation of the elements of
water in the same proportions as they exist in
water. Equations representing the manner
in which these changes are supposed to take
place given in the paper.

Food for Swine.

1t is common remark that almost any
thing is good enough for hog. and to
this senseless proposition is traced the
disease among swine owned by breeders
who indorse it. Since time immemorial
the hog has been called the farm scaven-
ger, but nevertheless. the successful breed
er is he who relies the least upon this
over-estimatedc characteristic ofthe animal.
Bad water. worse treatment in handling
and superabundanee of filth, are the
foundation OF all diseases to which hogs
are subject. and it is. consequently. easy
to believe that the health of the animal
and the quality of the meat must increase
in proportion to the cleanliness of the food
and surroundings.

SLIPPED HIS WIND.
The telegraph announces as follows:

The telegraph announces as follows;
WASHINGTON, March Isl.
John N. Irwin, of Iowa, is confirm
ed Governor of idaho Territory
On Saturday last we wire advised
from Dayton that Neil had been sup
erceded by a gentleman from Iowa.
and on receipt of the Oregonian, Of
March I'd, on Monday, We find the
above dispatch. We don't suppose that
we are to have tso Governors at the
same time. unless one is for North Ida
no and one for South idaho, and hence
we infer that Gov. Neil has slipped his
political wind. Since the news reached
here we have failed to see the first per
son who regrets his decapitatiop. VIVA,
causes brought abou, this change no
one here seems to know. But little over
half his four years term had expired
and hence he doe, not go out by reason
Of the lapse OF his term Of office, bu,
either by Resignation or removal for
cause. We had not been advised that
charges had been preferred against
him at Washington, except such charg
es as had appeared in several newspa
pers, the most serious Of which was
his bad faith towards the people Of the
North on the annexation question. In
that matter his double dealing aid du
plicity have been loo apparent to be un.
noticed by all those who have taken
interest in the question. Again hi
bitter opposition to the M"rmons Of
outheastern Idaho has led him to sac
rifice, as is claimed, much truth about
the true state of things, respecting
them, and his Misrepresentation must
have recoiled on him, and shown him
to be an unwise and unjus, Governor
of any people. Farewell Bro. Wat,
