President Harrison sends u Message "a
Congress Upon the Subject.

Congress pom the SutJect.
WASHINGTON, July 2a.-Presiden: Har-
rison to-day sent the following message
to congress-:
To the Senate and House Of Representa-
tires: The recent attempt To secure "a
charter from North Dakota for a lottery
company. the pending effort To obtain
from the state Of Louisiana IA renewal of
the charter of the Louisiana lottery and
the establishment of one or more lottery
companies at Mexican towns near our
border, have served the good purpose of
calling public attention To this evil of vast
proportions. III the baneful effects of
lotteries were confined to the states that
gave the companies corporate powers and
license 10 conduct the business, the
citizens of other states, being power
less to apply legal remedies, might
clear themselves of the responsibility by
those of such moral agencies as were
within their reach; but the ease is not so.
The people of all the states are debauched
aud defrauded. Vast sums of money Of
fercd to the states for charters are drawn
from the people OF the United States aud
the general government, through the mail
system. Is made the effective and prof
table medium of intercourses between the
lottery company and its victims. The use
OF the mails is quite essential to the
companies as a state license. ltwould bc
practically impossible for the companies
to exist 10 the public mails were once ef-
fectually closed against these companies
and the prostitution of an agency
only intended 10 serve the pur-
poses of legitimate trade and decent
social intercourse. IL is not necessary
am sure for me to attempt to
portray the robbery of the poor and the
widespread corruption of public and pri-
u,h IA inc Al ant
OF these lottery schemes.
The national capital has become sub
headquarters for the Louisiana lottery
company and its numerous agents and at
torney are conducting here IA business in
volving probably larger use of the mails
than that of any legitimate business en-
terprise in the District of Columbia. There
seems to be good reason 10 believe the
corrupting touch of these agents had been
felt by clerks i'm the Boston service and
by some OF the police officers of this dis
trict.
Severe and effective legislation
should be promptly enacted to enable the
postofiice departments 10 purge the mails
of all letters, newspapers and circulars
relating to the business. The letter of
the postmaster general which l transmit
herewith points out the inadequacy of the
existing statute and suggests legislation
that would he effective:
IL may .also he necessary to SO regu-

companies as to prevent the use of those

WAsHf GToN, July 29.-This was the
fourth day Of consideration OF the con-
ference report on the sundry civil bill IN
the house and Il was not until late that
the paragraphs in relation to the arid
lands were reached. Carter was prepared
to talk for the senate amendment upset
ting Powell's withdrawal of the public

Producing an entire desert-land bill, and
the discussion promises to be long enough
to try the temper of Cannon, none too
good at best just now.
Power does not attempt to pair any

when vote was taken on an order of

Power was absent and not paired, so
Dolph transferred his pair with Brown OF

Brown ought to protest.

Silver Bow. He reads the democratic pa

Tobacco Culture.

Writing about tobacco culture in the
Florence Is c. Times F. NJ. Rogers, Jr.,
says: Select spot with southern or east
ern exposure, neither very sandy nor TOO
stiff and cold. Locate near a stream Of
water, and, if this cannot be conviently
done, dig well near by SO that an ample
supply of water can be had when the time
arrives to force the growth of the young
plants. The place being chosen, if original
growth, proceed to cut off even with the
ground all bushes and weeds. After re-
moving all heavy rubbish. take wedding
hoes and clean away wash, taking care to
scrape off mould wells without disturbing
tine upper surface too much. Lay poles the
size of mans arm three feet apart across
the entire surface The idea of the poles is
to keep the burning material off the
ground and give it good ventilation.
Place larger part of wood (which should
be cut about eight feet across the poles,
the entire length of the bed about
three feet wide and two high. Then set
fire to this, the whole way, getting it to
burn uniformly as soon as possible. When
the ground is burned sufficiently (which
generally requires an hour or hour and
quarter), with hoes fastened on long poles
pull the burning mass about three feet, but
be sure not to move beyond edge of land
already burned; put on more wood to start
the fire to burning afresh. Keep the fire
uniform the entire length so that the ground
will not be burned too little in some places
and not too much in others. At the end of
an hour, more or less, as necessary, move as
before, again placing on fresh wood, and SO
continue till the entire surface is burned
over Rake off the Goals and ashes, and
with grubbing hoes dig it up, first across
one way and then the other. Being careful
not to turn up the under soil too much,
take and pail up with the hands all roots,
ETC. Dig it up once more, this time remov-
ing all coarse matter. Spread on a liberal
supply of fowl house manure, very fine
stable manure free from grass seed-or
well-rotted cotton seed, the latter at the
rate of $50 pounds per acre. Chop this in
well. and make surface perfectly smooth
and fine by repeated rakings. Dig trenches
across the bed five or six feet apart, and
fonr inches deep to take off ali surface
water. The ground is now ready to receive
the seed. For every hundred square yards
of plant lands take two tablespoonfuls of
seed and mix thoroughly with four quarts
d,.v ashes or fertilizers. Divide this quau-
tity in equal parts, placing aside one por-
tion. Mark the bed off with hoe handle
in beds about three feet wide, then take one
MART OF seed and sow over the entire bed;
mark the opposite way and sow as before
with balance of seed. The idea of sowing
in onposite directions is to promote regu-
larity. Make surface firm by treading with
tba feet or by the use of heavy roller.
This completes all work to the plant bed for
tna present. The seed in this latitude COM
r,ence to come up the first Of March. Upon
tbe;r first appearance 1t is letter to cover
