Y.. was read before the Farmers' Club as follows: " I mowetl a piece of clover and timothy the Ist of July, plowed an acre and thirty one nxls the Ist of August, turned the sod all even and nicely, the soil Wing a gravt Uy loam on table land, or on what we term the upper flats, on th * Delaware river, seven miles above 1 Delhi, tlie comity seat. After it had been piw wed a week, I w*mt over the piece with a harrow unae a week till the Ist of HeptcmWr. I th.-n put on tlie cultivator ouce, even when I considered the surface sufficiently pulverized for a graxi wed bed. I then sowed on the piece two bushels, less four quarts, of white wheat, then put on the cultivator once over, , thu went one** over with the harrow. I j then slacked a barrel of lime anil mixed ' with three barrel* of ashes, and sowed . evenly over the piece and put the harrow once over again. The w.-atber prove* 1 j favorable for a fall growth. It showed a very fine top. wintered well, grew finely in the spiring, stood remarkably even on tlie ground, and ripened the Ist of July. I cut it Wfore it was dead ripe, got it in in good order, thrashed it' the Ist of SeptemWr, and measured! forty-five bushels from the machine, j and reo> ivod at the Delaware County i Winter Fair the first premium for the j largest quantity raised from an acre, aud the firat premium for the best quality of wheat. Having seen an aceotuit in the ! proceeding* of the Farmers' Onb recom j mending the same process, last fall, for cultivatim? and preparing ground for wheat, I feel willing to give rnv experi ence hi raising an acre and thirty-one ro*U, hoping it will be a benefit aud en couragement to other* to make a trial. I intend to try the name plan or process in preparing and raising a larger piece next season, feeling well satisfied that tli re. i-s a large area of land along the Delaware well adapted to the raising of winter wheat, and that a large amount of j mouey, which is now paid out for West- [ ern flour, might lie Ha veil aud appropri ated to other necessary purposes." Mr. 8. E. Todd said tliat Mr. Becker ha 1 produced a fair yield of wheat, but th it fanners in the northern port of New York State frequently raise forty-flve bushels to the acre without extraordinary i preparation of the soil.

A Sad Warning. A terrible suicide occurred in Fishkill village, X. Y. John Erwin, a lad eighteen years of age, a clerk in Hoyt's store, was detected stealing five dollars' worth of dry goods. His parents reside in Xewburgh, and were sent for, when Mr.'Hoyt settled the matter with the father for fifty dullars, and then search was made for the boy. He was found in an ont-bonse, dead, having taken cither morphine or arsenic. Letters found on him and in his trunk revealed the feet that/or some time he had been the vic tim of a blackmailer in Lowell, Mass:, who kept demanding money and goods from huu at intervals, as a price for hushing up something young Erwin had done, but what it was does not transpire. The blackmailer seemed to have been ready to take either dry goods or money. Bret Harte once worked for his board up in one "f the Sierra valleys, but the old hiiow he lived with thinks he hardlv paid hi* war.

In the depressed mood which followe.l two ilaya later, Mr. Ikwlwr wrote this long letter, which he described "as an cxluhit of what he had done during the pant year for Theodore."

I undertook to clear him from every im putation that affected his character, ex cept those which belonged to his later associations with socialistic ideas and with the W oodliulLs. It was a common ground between us that Elizabeth ami the domestic troubles were to lie shielded in silence. 1 could not undertake to do some tluugs without bringing up the whole mutter in such away that that would be disclosed. 1 could not under take to dear his character in regard to bis sentiments ou socialistic questions; that I could not do. But if, in ,regard to the other, if in regard to lus houses hold, in regard to Klizulieth and the children—if he wished that, on my jart. to he dragged out and to be made a subject of investigation, my opinion then was, and was through the whole of the years, that that could never come into the church without 'destroying that church, and I would "step down ami out" before anything should ever de stroy Plymouth Church. 1 had an ex aggerated idi-a, but it was a real idea that anything of that kind—l would sutler anything, but that church should stand. Ami then, as for him and her and the children—tiiis is not exactly the language of a lit**nil and logical state ment, bat it is language, as w hen Paul said : " I could wish myself accursed from Christ for my brother's sake!"— as David fur Absalom: " Would to God I had died for thee !"

The New York ('ommcrcial liull' Hn wivs that one 01 the greatest trochlea trade unions have to contend igaiort is Hie jwrasites that'gain influence ail position in them, iiud then use the in fluence in tlieir own favor and against the beat intereata of tlie workingnien. It cites an instance where the president of a union wan also an official in the Grangers, which position he had obtained upon thedirect or implied understanding that he should use his other positiou to enable the farmers to get an good prices | as josnible for their produce from its members, while his duties to the union required bun to use all his efforts to ob tain this produce at the lowest possible rates. It is by no means an exceptional case, the pajwr says. It is usually those who have nothing to losu who get up or ganizations of this kind in the lirst place and control them afterwards, nnd the only wonder is that workingmen gener ally have not opened their eyes to the fact long ere this. A Voted Lion. The lion "Jim," which has just ex pired at an eastern menagerie, had a his tory of its own.

A Marvelous Snake Fight. The Santa llona (California) /knux:m' tells this story; laist August, as Mr. Woodhridge, who lives just above Clovenlale, formerly of lVtaluma, was going to his work in the early morning, he -aw a strange sight, something which he could not at llrst d fine—whirling, writliiugaud turning on the ground. Oua n**arer approach what was liia astonishment to discover two immense rattlesnake* engagisl in a dead ly strife. They wen* wrapped around each otlier from the tail to withii six or eight inches uf the head, aud never for a moment did tin y take their eye* off each other. Now and then tliev would slowly unwind to within one or two coils of the tail, when, with an instantaneous movement, tliey would again become in - vulvod to the neck, and with jaws dis tended and fangs excised, one jtonhl strike at the other, his antagonist in variably dmlging ut the Wow, when in turu be would Is* foiled. After repeat ing their maneuvers for a time they would lie panting in inch other's coils, and then slowly and cautiously unwind, only to repeat the involvement and strik ing again. So fiercely dil tli*v embrace each other that one would think surely the life would Ih> crushed out. Strike after strike was made on both aides, but never once was an adversary * far caught off his guard as t*i receive a blow. They luul b*i>n fighting over a space of fifteen or twenty f<*t, as evince*! by their tnu*ks in the dust.

Those Wicked Itats. Having rend that coal tar would ilriv* away rats from a dwelling, 1 would like to give a chapter from my experience witli it. Some years since, after nil epidemic which kified all our cats, our house lx>- came inf*ste*l withanarniy of rats. They gnawed holes in nearly every room, made ha via* generally, and seaaijierod about day and night, till we were near lv rciulv to " burn up tin* liou-e and run away by the light of it." J list then we l end an article oil the many virtues of coal tar, in which the writer, a noted college professor, told the same story. " I'ut tar in tin* holes; they would Is* disgusted and leave osed it must be true, ho wo sent twenty miles for coal tar. Foolishly I had B]M*ut the day it came in giving my pantry an extra clean ing. At night my hnslmnd made a swab und applied the tnr to all the holes. We retired, thinking wliat a blessing that Homelssly was wise enough t< tell uh just what to do to get rid of such a nuisance. ltut in the morning—oh, horrors, surh a pantry ! I should have supposed every rat in the neighborhood had waded through the filthy stuff and danced a jig on my cleau shelve* and floor. In every rismi t< which tliey hud access were their black tracks visi ble. From the back kitchen tothe front door the house was filled with the abominable odor. It t**ik weeks to clean the last of those tracks and a month to rid the house of the detestable perfume. Words fail to describe tlie horrors of that extremity—l can think of only one thing worse -a visitation of smnltnox. And, to cap the climax, tot a rat left the house ! They seemed to stick tin* closer. Depend ujhiu it, the only sure cure for nits is a good cat with a family of smart kittens. The Emperor of Brazil.
