A New Way to Make a Lawn.

Cor. Ladies' Floral Cabinet.
Everyone admires piece of we'll
kept grass, whether it be plot of
few yards or an extensive lawn. AL
though it crowns nearly everywhere
without any concern of ours, many
persons have met with difficulty in
getting it to grow where it is want
ed.
The following method originated
with myself about fifteen years ago,
and it has some advantages possessed
by no other; it needs no skilled labor,
it costs but little, and it never fails.
After the ground is prepared as it
should be for sowing the seed or for
sodding, find the number of yards to
be coverd then provide one-sixteenth
as many yards of sod, cut it in pieces
three inches square and place them a
foot apart all over the ground. If in
rows both ways, SO much the better,
Pound each one into the ground with
the back of the spade. In a short
time each piece will send up bunch
of green spears, and, later in the sea.
son, they will all run together. Every
gardener knows how soon grass viii
encroach on a path or fiower-bed
If the pieces are in rows thespaces be
tween may be kept clear of weeds
with wheel-hoe, or the whole may
be cut with lawn mower.

"There are premature reports floating around To

on one Of the southern railway lines to Nav
Orleans and beyond. Negotiations are in
progress in the west for such an extension into
the south, but they have not reached a stage
where the matter can be definitely announced.
Tho Baltimore aud Ohio Is doing n satisfactory
business in New York, and Its Philadelphia
traffic Is large beyond expectations" It Is
said that this southern express connection will
be made In the next few days, but the route by
which II will go can be only a matter Of con-
lecture now, The statement that 1t will be
made In the west would seem to indicate that
the Illinois Central or some other road out of
Chicago is preparing to nut the Baltimore and
Ohio Express Company on its lines TO the
south.

time showed an advance Of oyer 9 per
cent. and New England nearly 4. Both
suffered considerably in the afternoon de-
cline. Richmond and West Point again
attracted considerable attention for It's ac-
tivity and strength, and shows material adj
vance this evening.
There was considerable gossip anoat
about Lake Shore, and, next to New Eng
land, the stock showed the largest trans
actions of the day, being firm throughout.
The coal stocks and Vanderbits were more

1MponrANr TAX DECISION
which Debars the District from Col
lecting Considerable Money.


An important opinion to the property
holders and tax payers, and especially those
purchasing property at tax sale, was given
In the court in general term yesterday in
the case Of John H. Brewer against the Dis
trict Of Columbia, W. j. Laughlln, and w.
II. Thumbert. The question involved was
whether a tax sale and deed thereon by the
District in pursuance Of the act OF the leg
isative assembly OF June %, 1873, an
amendment thereto Of the next day, upon
the demand Of holder OF certificate is
sued under such act, gave to the purchaser,
at such SALE a title free and clear from all
taxes assessed prior TO such sale. IL was
claimed by the District that although as
general rule tax deed would convey title
free from all such prior taxes, yet that,
under the peculiar terms OF these acts, the
sale was to be regarded as subject TO taxes
assessed prior thereto. The court held
otherwise, and that the District had no
power to collect taxes assessed prior to
such sale. BY this decision the property
purchased by Brewer was relieved OF foot
way tax assessed by the corporation Of
Washington in the year 1871, which now
amounts TO about $1,000, and annual taxes
for three years prior to such sale. II Is
said that the effect OF this decision will be
to deprive the District Of the power TO col
lect large amounts Of taxes in cases where
sales Of taxes have been made without
reference to prior taxes assessed upon the
property. Messrs. w. Willoughby and A.
/. Merriman argued the case for Brewer,
and ii. j.. Davis for the District.
