The greater part of my constitu ents are agriculturists, and I thiuk that if there is any class of tbe people of the United States that has not been protected by this Government, it is that class. Commerce, manufactures, and all other interests are protected, and have been from year to year protected ; but nothing has been dono for the farming interest, to which we are all so much indebted. " Sir, I know, of my own personal knowledge, that seeds which have been ob tained from tbe Patent Office have been of very great use in the country that I come from. I suppose that it is known to eve- be allowed to take a lower premium in rank 75 ! than has previously been taken by the same.
