<?hc favmrv's fjcpartmcnt. Cultivation of Beans. MESSRS. EDITORS:—I have noticed in your paper during the past season, some articles in relation to raising beans, and having had some experi ence in experimenting upon the best method to raise and secure the crop. I offer a few words for publication. From actual trial I am convinced that the most profitable wav to raise beans is to plant by themselves. When planted with corn, every far mer knows that they ripen very un even, and that they damage the corn crop. I have abundant proof, fur nished by several season's trial, by planting a portion of my corn field with them, and the remainder unplan ted, producing the same result inva riably, the yield of corn being from twenty to twenty-five per cent, more where the beans were not planted. I was led to make these trials by hearing a wealthy Sandy river far mer say some years ago, that he wasn't able to raise beans with his corn, as he knew his corn crop was damaged moro than his beanfe pro fited when planted together. My method is this: about the sth of June I spread broadcast, common barn yard manure on ground well plowed the fall previous; then with a cultivator or horse plow, thoroughly pulverize the soil ta the depth of four inches, the plow being prefera ble, as it will more completely cover j the manure; a common brush, or light harrow will then smooth the | surface. I then draw a chain across j for the rows, having them about one ■ and a half feet apart, then with a corn planter, the piece is quickly and easily planted. When of suffi cient size, the ground is lightly gone j over with a hoe, no hilling being re-' quired, and being of rapid growth, the ground is soon covered by a healthy foliage, and indue time the "crop will be very sure to ripen with uniform ness, and produce a yield 'arger than j can be obtained in any other way.— 1 Maine Fanner. CORN MARKER. —There are various modes of marking corn for the straight rows described in the prece ding article. One of the best mar kers consist of three runners, about three feet long six inches wide, and three inches thick, placed three and a half feet apart, and well braced. A common wagon tongue may be at tached to it. The driver walks be hind the central runner, and ranges between the horses with his eye. The rows, being three and a half feet apart, he employs stakes ten and a half feet long to range by, and re moves them as lie passes, measuring accurately their length each time; or a second person may remove the poles. The marker steadied by the tongue will form very straight grooves in the soil. For cross marking,'em ploy the chain marker. It consists of a light pole, with trace chains sus pended from it, at distances for each row, of three or three and a half feet apart, as may be desired. Two men take the pole near each end, and one of them acting as guide and ranging accurately, they walk for ward, dragging the chains iti the soil, making a fine smooth line for each chain. Six or seven c hains may be employed. Without inconvenience, and the field marked off with great rapidity. By the first of these im plements, a man and a tram will mark more than an acre, and by the use of the second, two men, or a man and a boy, will mark two and a half acres, in walking a mile. — Tucker s Annual Reghtcr. THICK SEEDING OF OATS.—The Jionton Cultivator says that, as a gen eral thing, in sowing oats, wo do not sow seed enough to produce the best crop. '• Having occasion some years since, to look into the statements accompanying premium crops of this grain, in different parts of the coun try, we found that nearly all the great yields had been produced by heavier seeding than farmers in this section usually give. Instead of two to two and a half bushels to the acre, these large crops were grown from three to four bushels of seed per acre. We should prefer not less than three bush els to the acre for- soils of medium rich ness, though on those very rich, some what less, say three bushels—on ac count of the greater tendency of.the plants to tiller, or spread on such soil —might answer.'" SAVE VOIR SOAP-SUI>?. —There is scarcely a plant that is not benefited by watering with soap-suds. It fur nishes nutritive matter as well as moisture; keeps off insects, and pro motes a rapid growth. The Garden er * Chronicle states that while there has been a great failure in cabbage . and cauliflower gardens generally, tho& watered with • soap-suds have j produced plants of the finest quali-1 ty, and entirely escaped the injuries I inflicted by insects upon others. CURE FOR SPAVIN.—Add two ta ble-spoonfuls of melted lard, one of cantlmrides, made fine or pulverized, 1 and a lump of corrosive sublimate as large .is a pea—all melted up togeth er, and applied once a day till used up, confining, it to the callous. This quantity is for one leg, and may be relied on as a cure. It will make a sore, and the joint will be much wea ken* d while applying the medicine. Ko need of alarm ; it will all be right when healed up.— Far. <j- Mechanic. (£ durational Teachers' Trials. There is, perhaps, uo man who gets as ' little credit for his labors and exertions as the School Teacher. We frequently hear j persons s.iy, " the teacher lias nothing to j do; he has only to work six hours a day, at nice light work, in a dry shady place," and various other expressions that show undoubtedly, that the persons who say so are unacquainted with the trials And troub les of a teacher's life. To all such we beg to present a brief sketch of the trials that daily fall to the lot of the teacher. True, he has to work but six hours with the pu pils under his immediate care;.but how many other hours has he to pass in hard and patient study, that he ma}' be able to present new ideas to the minds of his scholars, whoa theyasscmble for their dai ly instruction ? How many hours of the time for sweet invigorating slumber are taken up iu forming plans to present the oft-explained but poorly understood prob lem, in a manner that it maybe as clear as the light from the noon-day sun, to the most obtuse student? Counting the hours in which he is engaged with his pupils as nothing, he still does work sufficient for his poorly paid services.. But is his direct instruction to his scholars nothing, when for six long hours he is obliged to breathe the heated and impure air of the school room, while his voice is constantly keptin i use, and his mental faculties on a constant t strain? The minister who preaches his | weekly sermon has but a poor excuse for j weakness of voice when compared with the teacher; and only those who have ex perienced a constant strain upon the men- j tal faculties, can know the wearing, tear- ! ing and tiring effect upon the hVunan sys- j tem. Then, 0 ye parents, who have j three or four children continually trans- j grossing your commands and tormenting j you with simple senseless questions, 1 o.v | often do you lose command of your temper, j and declare you arc worried almost to j death with their petulant manners, and j how often are they sent to school to be out j of the way ? Do vou ever think the teach- j cr has nothing to do, who has sixty , seven- j ty, or eighty children, of almost as many j different disposiflbns, under his control ? j how he has to coax the timid to exertion, j force the indolent to industry, crush the bad habits of the immoral,and demand; obedience from the rebellious; and at the ; same time, instill into the young listless minds that knowledge that istomake them j what they will be in this life, and have j much to do with their fate in the next? j And then, after a day so spent, when ; he sits himself down to rest his weary body and to soothe his aching browj an , indignant parent rushes in upon his appa rent leisure, and with flashing eyes and i angry voice, ' wants to know whyhispoor 1 boy must be beaten nearly to death, for | missing a lesson, when detaining after school would have done far better." lie barely gets started with an explanation, .when another voice, tuned to the highest pitch, interrupts him bv demanding ''the reason that his child must be penn'd up after j school hours, when it is the teacher's priv- j Urge, to use the rod." By the time tjiey j are pacifieA another parent enters "to In- j form him that be is too severe, and re- j quires too much from such young minds;" | and another- •to inquire if he could not ! be a little more strict, and have the ad- ; vanecmcnta little more rapid;"and anotli-1 er, who is haunted with" that terribly aw ful idea of partiality-, " would like to know if he don't think more of one scholar than another," and goes away doubly certain of it and its enormities, when he plainly tells her, that of course a good scholar is more thought of than a wicked, evil-disposed So Ihe day passes on, and lie lays him self down, that iu sleep he may rest his overtasked nature, and be free from his thankless toil. Some way think this pic- j ture overdrawn; but a fair and candid mind will discover there is''more truth than poetry" in it.and that it should be remedied at once. But howsonic may ask. Not by the pareuts taking the part of the children in every supposed wrong; but simply by the parents taking more in terest in the schools to which their chil dren belong, by visitiug them frequently, and becoming acquainted with the plans of the teacher; by assisting him to carry them out, and by instilling into the .minds of their children respect for the teacher and his rules. Until this is done, educa tion cannot prosper, and it would be well if parents would act in the matter imme diately. J. R. S. Huntingdon Globe. A HIT OF ADVICE TO BOYS. —You are made to be kind," says Horace Mann, generous and magnanimous. If there is a boy in the school who has a club foot, don't let him know that you ever saw it. If there is a poor boy with ragged clothes, don't talk about rags iu his hearing. If there is a lame boy, .assign him some part of the game which does not require run ning. If there is a hungry one give him part of your dinner. If there isa dull one, help him to get bis lessons. If there is a bright one, be not envious of him, for if one is proud of his talents, and auother is envious of them, there are two groat wrongs, and no more talents than before. If a larger and stronger boy has injured you, and is sorry for.it, forgive him, and request the teacher not to punish him. i All the school will show by their counte ; nances how much better it is than to have | a great fuss. The Soldier and His Mother. At a grand meeting of the Christian ! Commission held recently at Washington, j in the Ilall of the House of Representa ! tives, one of the speakers related the fol ■ lowing touching incident, one among the : thousands that could be told illustrating { the patriotism of the loyal women of the North : I saw, in the city of Easton. a compa iny of men drawn up in line. I saw an j old woman who was pulling a thin shawl ' around her. Ah, she is one of the poor of the earth. She hurried on, eagerly. ■ anxiously scanning the faecs of the men as she came. At last she stood before a great, tall, rawboned fellow who was jo king with his companions. " Well boys," he said, "we're a goin' off, arn't we ?" And they said, " Yes, we aro." He had a little bundle, tied up in a red handkerchief, on his arm. " When we get down there, maybe we won't give them fits, eh 112" They said, we won't." They seemed to be making the same mistake with a great many of us just about that time, for none of us had an idea that such a terrible, desolating shad ow was rising up in our midst.' Just then the old woman pushed her way through the crowd, and stood before j this man. His eyes dropped in a moment | and his face was covered with a flush, and ; as he turned his head, he lifted his fin- j ger to his eyes and shook it with a twirl— j "Now, mother, mother! You promised | me that you wouldn't come out, didn't ! ye? Now you promised me. When I said 'good by' to you, mother, I told ye ! that I didn't want ye to come out here an' unman me, and here you've done it! j Now I wish you hadn't!" The old woman lifted her hands up. and putting them on the great high shoul- j ders of her son, as the tears streamed j down her furrowed cheeks, she said : I " Oh, Jack, don't scold me don't scold j your poor old mother, .lack; you know that you are all I have, Jack, an' I didn't come out to unuian ye —I have come out to say, 'God bless ye, Jack; Cod bless ye !' " And drawing the thin shawl over her bosom, she went away.. The big fellow drew a sleeve over his face, and bringing down his arm with a | sort of vexed emphasis, as if to defy the ! the emotion he could not control, turning ! to the men he said : " Hang it boys, she's my mother, you know!" There I felt, will be a brave man in'tlic | field, lie's a noble, a true fellow. Men who have a right and true appreciation of their country's cause,-are lovers of their home of their mothers. Ages of our Generals. The following list' goes to prove that the best of our military leaders are by nomeans young men, but mostly men in middle life, or beyond it: "Gen. RosScransis 44, andGcn. Grant 42. Stonewall Jackson died at 37. Gen. Banks is 48, Gen. Hooker 45, Gen. Beau regard 40, Gen. Bragg 40, Gen. Burn side 40. Gen. Gilmore 39, Gen. Franklin 41, Gen. Magruder 53, Gen. Meade 48, Gen. Schuyler Hamilton 42, Gen. Clias. S. Hamilton 40, and General Foster 40. General Lander, a man of great promise, died in his 40th year. General Kearney was killed at 47. and Stevens at 45. Gen. Sickles was in his 41st year when he was wounded at Gettysburg, and Gen. Reno was 4X when he died so bravely-at South Mountain. Gen. Pembcrton lost Yicks burgat 45. Gen. "T. W. Sherman is 40, and Gen. W. T. Sherman 44. Gen. M'- Clcllan was in his 35th year when lie as sumed command at Washington in 1801. Gen. Lyon had not completed the first month in his 43d year when he fell at Wilson's Creek. Gen. McDowell was in his 43d year when he failed at Bull Run, in consequence of the e#ming up of Gen. Joe Johnson, who was 01. Gen. Keys is 53. Gen. Kelly 57, Gen. King 40, and Gen. Pope 41. Gen. A. S. Johnson was 49 when he was killed at Shiloli. Gen. Halleck is 48. Gen. Longstreet is 40. The best of the Southern cavalry leaders was Gen. Asliby. who was killed at 38. Gen. Stuart is 29. On our side, General Stanley is 30, Ocn. Pleasanton 40, and Gen. Phelps is 51, Gen. Polk 58, Gen. S. Cooper 67, Gen. J. Cooper 54, and Gen. Blunt 38." J-JY" In a speech in London, Mr. Chas. Dickens spoke of the schools he Meed, and of those he did not like. Of the school which he once attended, "the re spected proprietor of which was by far the most ignotaut man he ever had the pleas ure to know,"he said :"I do not like that sort of school, beeause I never yet lost my ancient suspicion touching that curious coincidence that the hoy with jive broth ers to come altcayt got the prizes." Of the schools which he did like, he said: " It is a place of education where, while the beautiful history of the Christian re ligion is daily taught, and. while the life of that Divine Teacher who himself took little children on his knees is daily stud ied, no sectarian ill-will or narrow human dogma is permitted to darken the face of the clear heaven which they disclose."

Tiik New York Tribune, first issued April 10, 1841, has today a larger aggregate circulation than any other newspaper published in America, or (we believe) in the world. Compelled a year since to increase the price of its several issues, or submit to the pecuniary ruin of its proprietors from the very magnitude of its circulation, It has probably since parted with some patrons to whom its remarkable cheapness was a controlling recommend tion; but others have taken their place, and it has now more than Two Hundred Thousand subscribers and regu lar purchasers—an excess of at least Fifty Thousand over those of any rival. And this unprecedented currency it has achieved by very liberal expenditures in procuring early and authentic intelligence, by the fearless expres sion of convictions, by the free employment of ability and industry wherever it might contribute to excellence in any department of our enterprise, and by unshrinking fidelity to the dictate* of Justice, Humanity, aud Free dom. By very large outlays for early and authentic advices by telegraph and otherwise from its own correspondents with the various armies of the Union, and by special ef forts to furnish such information respecting Markets, Crops, new discoveries or improvements in Agriculture, Ac,, as must specially interest farmers,we have assidlously labored to make a journal calculated lo meet the wants and subserve the interests of the Producing Classes.— TINT t end we have at least measurably attained; for no other newspaper exists in America or Europe which is habitually read by nearly so many farmers and their fam ilies as is Tiie Triiil'NK io-day. We shall labor to increa e both the number and the satisfaction of this by far the most numerous class of its patrons, i During the existence of the Whig party, this paper supported that party, though always sympathising with the more liberal, progressive, Anti-Slavery 'wing" there- ! of. When new issues dissolved or transf >rmcd old organ! j /.ations through the t-nontancouti uprist' g of the people of the Free States against the repudiation of the Mi sou* i » Restriction, Th* Tribune hcaiiiiy participated in tint : movement, and was kn-iwu Republican. When tbe long smoldering conspiracy t » divide and destroy m - country or reduce it entiie l • complete abasement t-> the ' Slave power culminated in v•> t t;e:is n and rebellion, , it naturally, necessarily regarded resistance t-- this c n , spiracy as paramount to all the. usi.leritli-ns. and de- 1 voted all its energies mid ell the in dnteliance t Union. In every great cont v which Im* •Jivi.l* ' , «>ur country. it has been found • n that side which *Mtu rally commands the sympat',. .in.l. supp-.t 112 the It-.- majority of school-houses . ..t the decided minority grog-sho' s. and so doubth • will be to to the last. Ardently desiring and strivin for the early and endu ring adjustment of our National distractions. The Tribune leaves the time, the nature and the conditions ol that a*d justmeut implicitly to those l.ijvtully in authority, C"ii fiding in their wisdom and patriotism, nnxi-.U" to aid them to the utmost hi their luduou* <esp nsibillties and | not to embarrass them even by possibility. FirinU be lieving in the Apost< lie rule—"First pure then peacea ble"—holding the total and final extirpation of Sla very is the true and only absolute cure for our National ills—that any expedient that stops short of this can have but a transient and illusory success—we yet pro pound no theory of "reconstruction" and indorse none that has been propoundad by another—neither Sum ner s. nor Whiting's, nor any of the various devices for achieving "Peace" by surrounding the Re public into the power of its traitorous foes—but, exhor ting, the American People to have faith in their Govern ment, to re-enforce their armies and replenish their treas ury, we believe that, if they but do their duty, a benign Providence will indue time bring this fearful struggle to such a close as will best subserve the true jjreatnws nf our country and the permanent well-being of mankind. We respectfuly solicit the subscriptions and active exertions of our friends, and of all whose views and con- j victions substantiallv with ours. TERMS OF DAILY TRIBUNE. Single Copy 3 cents.
