WEDNESDAY MORNING, 1113Y:.:6.:1869 di „,„ es zao, truthful is the following desoription of "How they Farm in these pup,' drawn by M. E: C. in the Ohio Far mer. Walleye not for sometime seen a do. seriptbn that will apply so well to almost all other parts of the country as well as to the locale of the Ohio writer. We frequently pass a meadow with quite a flock of sheep roaming !'about peeking' something to devour, but, judging from appearances,not finding much,as thewhole field now, May 4th, looks precisely as it did in February; yet this field will no doubt be mown for hay, and if the season should be a little dry, what complaints will be made against the season; and such is human nature: How Tura' EARL IS Tutor Pears.—Gentle men farmers, if you will listen tome, I will tell you something about how farmers manage things around here where I live. The first point I shall notice is the way they serve their mead ows. As soon as thegrass gets a little start, after:. being mown the stock are turned on, and run all winter, to trample the sod in the ground, and crop the grass off so short that there is noth ing left to protect the roots against the frost; and the constant freezing and thawing kills about half of the . grass, and the remainder is fed off in the spring, till within four or five weeks of the time for mowing. Then such farmers grumble because they do not get a good crop, and say "grass will not grow in this country, for the winters are so cold that it gets killed out." Half of our farmers, in this neighborhood, serve their meadows in this very way. One of my neighbors, not more than half a mile from here, pastured his mead ow last year all winter, and did not turn his stock off till within three or four weeks of the he mowed the grass; and what kind of a crop do you suppose lie got? The meadow is creek bottom land, and capable of producing two and a half tons of good hay to the acre. Well, he got just about half a ton to the acre —hardly enough to pay for cutting it. Now which do you think pays the best, pas turing your meadows all the, fall and spring and getting one-fifth of a crop, or keeping the stock off and getting a whole crop? In the second place I shall notice the pro -coss by which such farmers pretend to keep their ground in a growing condition, or, as they call it, "giving the land rest." Yes, and I they "rest" it with a vengeance. The pro cess is something after this fashion : They keep their ground plowed up, and raise crops four or five years; the last crop generally takenoff is wheat: and the ground is left without any grass seed being sown upon it. As soon as the wheat is removed, the stock are turned in tho field to eat what is left; so that in the tipringthe ground is bare. In this condition it is used for a pasture two or three years, pro clueing about one-tenth as much grass, and that of an inferior quality, as it would do if it were seeded with timothy or clover; and dur ing all this time the laud produces nothing. and is in fact becoming poorer every day, when it might just as well produce pasture enough for ten head of cattle as for one, while the land would be better off in the end. Every sensi ble farmer known that land had better bo cov ered with weeds than to be bare for the sun to burn and bake it - as hard as a brick. U. E. C. TEE negotiations between the Erie and Cen tral roads await the action of the Erie mana gers. Tho discussion, we believe, is closed. The proposition before the Erie includes an advance of freight rates to a remunerative point; cattle freight t 0.576 per car from Buffalo to New-York, and $7O to Albany, and passenger fares to $8 or $9. The hitch appears to be that the Cen tral Company are unwilling to pay the Erie a subsidy of $200,000 or $_6),000 per annum for keeping passenger fares up. Meanwhile, we hear.that the Michigan Central, Michigan South ern And• Fort- 'Wayne and Chicago roads have made an arrangement for Eastern-hound freight which goes into operation next Monday, by which rates will be materially advanced. The rate for cattle .from Chicago to New York by . either route to. be 70 cents per owt.—N. Y. Tra. ME HARVEST OP 1839 IN DIINNESOTA,—As near a total failure on was the crop of 1858 in Minnesota, it is estimated that her surplus pro ducts were exported to the value of from $200,- 000 to $250,000. Bat last year's harvest, or even the exuberant one of 1857, are scarce an item compared with what the harvest of this year will be, if nothing untoward occurs to blast the hopes of the farmers. All our country ex changes speak enoonragiogly of the aspect of the crop!, and mention that double the area of last year is being prepared and planted. With ft - favorable season, next fall will see the earth groan with a harvest that will gladden our hearts, make fat the hungry, and pour wealth into our State. This boo weather is urging it forward favorably.—dlinnevatian 17th. How TIM RAIEROADE MAKE MONET oar OF Foonar.—The following brief statement, from the Cincinnati Graeae is a significant commenja ry upon the policy which railway managers hlve just now some inscrutable reason for pursuing : "The arrangements lately made in this city between railroad agents regarding freights is being disregarded, we understand. Shipments were made to Boston yesterday at 350. fur fourth class. Fourth-olass freight was taken front Louisville last week for New-York at 16. The Penneytrails Central bid 170 , but the New York Central did 2u. better, sad secured the contract." {hats the memory of old people still living, Scottish Presbyterian ministers were iu the habit of praying, in the public services of the sanctuary, for the '•downfall of the bloody Some of Hapsburg," along with the "destruction of Mehemet" and the "Mao of. Sin." A writer in a New Orleans paper estimates the loss to the corning cotton crop, by the over flow of tho Mississippi, at not less than half a million of bales, many others at a still higher figure. AT Milan, the Italian ladiis send a little toy to every able bodied young man still to be seen in the streets. Upon this is ioscribed the words : "Your country will remember the services you have rendered it." stramisbipo, tiREAT REDUCTION.—THE VANDER ,L.R BELT LINE of United Ewes bill die-km.l4w IfsNIIBIIISILT, r..E.Y.sgsore. locr..Cl QUEEN.
