2. drain. Let every coin pi i i lor lor it
grain premium be required to hand into
the .Secretory nnd have attached to his
grain bag n ltiliel giving the exact name
of such grain, so that the different varie
ties of wheat, rye, corn .v.:., may become
j clearly known, imtl the kinds hest suited
to our several soils may "ic-ily lie selected.

to the Society to be distributed in s mall

tint the niticle, whatever it may be,
may become plentier for tho common
good. And if there is anything peculiar
in the titno or mode of preparing the
ground, or the seed, or in the after
culture of the crop, let such premium
drawers be required to hand the Secrota
ry a written statement of such mode. Ac.

7. Binh. Let every County Agricultu
al Society see to it that an acting Uird
Commute is appointed in every township
and borough in the county to look after

ciety, every one. who causelessly kills or
destroys or robs the nest ur riesto''''s of

H"d to but one or two subjects. And let'
thoso bo thorougly discussed so as not to
only give us a brief and lucid view of what
is already knoivn to bo sound philosophy
in regard to mem, nut also to pio-ent to us
all the now light or information touching
tho same. Such an address will not only
enlarge tho views of our farmers, but wiil
sot them lo thinking anil experimenting,
while nu address thai touches nlmost ev-
cubing and describes nothing fully, will;
bo scarcely worth listening to. It is very !
true that it will require considerable rea- j
ding and labor to prepare such an ad-'
dreas tn I reccommend, but he who has
not the capacity to do it.or is unwilling !
to undergo the labor ofdoinuit. should.
oo niiuto to stand on ono sido nut give

Important Leccision.
The Secretary of tho Interior hns recen
tly made n decision upon a proposition of
tho lejTid representatives of John C.
Symes (by their al'.orney, Henry S. (Joxcj

ry ot the Ur ited Slates, under tho ;!d sec
tit n of tho ct of Congress ol 3d of March

The decision is to the effect that no fur

By the patent to Symrrea of dale 30tl
of September, 17'.4, the litlo to 311, 08
acres of land was conveyed to hitu, with
reseivations and trust. Among the latter
was one that six miles square in tho cen
tre of said land, shouid be reserved for er
ecting nm academy under the direction of
the then Governor of the. Territory north
west of the Ohio, withinjtive yours fiuin
date of patent. This fact explains the
trtiot encumbrance for t h use of schools
mentioned in this paragraph.
Tho proposition of Synimcs representa
tives was to obtain possession of tho reser
ved six miles square, which, it seems, was
never used for the purpose indicated in
the patent, 'i'he lands are no. very valu-.
able, being situated near the city of Cin
cinnati. in the State ot Ohio. V.'.ii-.

boy, tho son of a gentleman in on adjoin

during the past winter, ho failed to rise
in the morning as early as usual. At
length his father went "into tlio rooim

not get up ? He .,id it seeded dark yet
nnd ho was waiting fur daylight, His"fa

don't you get up?" Father is it daylight i'
"Yes' long ago." "Then Father tho lit.

his sight was gone.
In a short time his father took him to
Nashville, to get the benefit of tho medi
cal profession there, but none of the pliy..
si. lians could do anything tor him, and
hapily made no experiments on his eves.
Soffie ladies in the family of bis father's

one night proposed to take him to thoop

the course of tho performance, all at
once he leaped up, thre v his nrmsnround

lacy, " Oh ! Kathor, I can soe ! I can see!"
His sight, had instantly ieturue.d. And
since then he has retained ititi full vigor,
