ro.aceo.pIant BEDS Under Canvas.

We are again indebted to Major Ragland'
Of Halifax county, for timely advice In con-
nection with the present unfavorable plant
situation. We commend the following to
the planters as well as to our brethren OF
the press i'm the tobacco region:
Canvas covering for tobacco-plant BEDS
IL no longer an experiment, and its use Is
greatly extending every year rs its utility
becomes known. Used originally to pro-
feet the plants from depreciation by tne
plant-flea, it was found admirable ana ell
fectual for that purpose-better than all
other remedies or appliances. Besides pro-
tecting from the fleas, the canvas was found
greatly to promote the growth OF the plants
by keeping the bed warm, moist, and Sc
curer from freezing.
Canvasing pIant-beds is extensively
practiced in the West, and by its Use plants
are raised with a minimum OF risk and
earlier than by any other mode yet tried.
Planters In Western North Carolina use
the canvas covering with great success and
satisfaction.
Virginia planters move slower and take
hold of the new mode slowly. But, never
theless, in some sections here planters have
found out its good effects, aud would not
willingly dispense with it after trial.
A sleazy, cheap white cotton domestic is
the material used generally, which costs at
retail about four cents per yard. The
plant-bed is first surrounded with boards,
set I'D vertically all around, in box form,
10 the height OF twelve to eighteen inches
higher would not be obiectionable-mad
close, so as to keepeout the tleas; and the
canvas, after being sewn together into q
cover the size OF the bed, Is stretched over
it. II the bed is large, il will he necessary
to construct ridge.pole or stretch cords
across the bed to hold up the covering
above the plants.
There are planters In Halifax county, as
in many other places, who have ceased to
burn the land for plants since using the
canvas covering. They fertilize the beds
heavily, however, and their success has
been such that they could not be induced
to dispense with the canvas covering and
return to the old mode. BY the use of cam
vas plants are brought forward from ten
to fifteen days earlier than in open beds;
and in view OF the late preparation and
sowing this year, and the decidedly unfa-
vorable prospect for plants, planters will
do well 10 canvas a small bed or two, or a
part Of the beds already prepared and
sOWn.
| have used for several years yard-wide
domestic, costing about seven cents per
yard by the bolt, oiled with linseed oil, and
can recommend it on the score Of ecOnO-
my, durability, and safety. The oil pro-
notes durability, and so changes the char
acter Of the domestic as to place it outside
OF the cupidity OF thieyIng tramps.

Freaks of the Tariff.

| The Democratic party for some years
past has been like a cow that gives big
pail OF milk and then kicks it over. Up
to the assembling OF Congress the pros
poets for Democratic success in the preSi-
Dental election were exceedingly bright 4;
various state and municipal elections
showed that the people were disguised
with the extravaganza and general cOrrup-
ton Of the present Republican regime, and
were looking with anxious and eXpectant
eyes towards the Democratic party but
alas, the plain and simple issues Of honesty
and reform, upon which the skirmishes in
these States ha1 been fought and won,
didn't suit the ambitious notions OF some
OF our so-called national leaders; the
simplicity Of these od-fashioned issues
caused them to be rejected by these
gentlemen, and in their search for
some more abstruse and difficult problems
with which to confuse and harass the
minds OF the people. they unfortunately
stumbled upon the tariff, and at one time
almost sought to make belief in free
trade notions the test OF true Democracy,
TO the evident delight OF their Republican
opponents. The first step, or rather mis-
step, OF these gentlemen with the free-trade
speakership Of the House Of Representa-
tlyes Samuel j. Randall, whose long, faith
full, and able service to the party was un-
questioned; a jealous champion OF the
South when she most needed such
championship; man who had been
tried as Speaker and found not want
ing in single particular, and, above all
else, a man who, In the eyes OF the peO-
pie, strikingly represented the ideas OF hon.
esty, economy, and reform in the affairs Of
the Government, questions nearest the
hearts, and best understood by the masses
Of the people; in short, as well as we are
able to judge, Democrat whose only sin,
In the eyes Of these gentlemen. lay in the
fact that he was supposed to favor a pro-
tective tariff. We are not disposed to I'M
derrate the Importance OF the tariff ques-
ton, though we confess that. in common
with many others, we don't understand ii.
In the hands OF the politicians, both the
theories OF free trade and protection have
each so many and such varied shades OF
meaning that the whole subject, 50 far as
the public mind is concerned, is as much
"mixed up" as the colors in kaleido-
scope.
The free-trdder from Kentucky wants
his tohiShey protected, whilst the rich IRON
mine protectioniSt from Pennsylvania
wouldn't mind having his whlskey free;
and the large majority Of protectionists
and free-traders Of both parties in the ma
tional and State legislatures want unIimit-
ed free passes over railroads-a species OF
free trade abuse opposed by all honest men
OF both parties-a subject OF as much inn
portance In the latter's eyes, II not in that
OF their representatives, as the much-dis-
cussed and little-understood theory Of the
tariff.
Let us "agree to disagree" upon this
subject, and go in for honesty. economy,
and reform, and the best and strongest
men. whether they be free-trade Democrats
or protection Democrats. Hampton Mont

What supreme folly would il be for the
Democratic party to split on the tariff or
any other questions when the prospect for
succession to the presidency in the next
contest is so encouraging. The notorious
corruption, official prodigality. dishonesty,
and sectionalism OF the Republican party
seem to us are OF sufficient magnitude to
engage the attention OF the Democratic
party. and the prompting OF willingness
to subordinate all other questions to the
sole purpose OF hurting from power the
corrupt Radical party.-FrederickSbwg
