, have had light- j er crops than with ordinary broad-1 cast sowing, and have hasti'y denoun- j ced all machines of the kind. Seed wheat that is infected with j smut may be purified by washing in t brine, and then sprinkling and stir ring in powdered and slaked lime. SEED CORN. —lmproved varieties always tend to run backwards ; the farmer should therefore constantly j select the best cars for seed. This should be a regular yearly business, and if faithfully carried out will give an increase of several bushels per acre, in the long run. SWINE. —The falling apples in or- 1 chards may now be fed to swine, and in connection with richer and drier ; food will cause them to fatten rapidly, j Winter apples are often allowed to j over-bear, and the removal of a por tion of the crop for feeding these an imals will improve the remainder, j No tree should ever bear heavy j enough to need propping. The yards | and apartments in which swine are 1 kept should be scrupulously clean, and rendered comfortable by dry litter. I Experiments have shown that they j fatten faster under these circumstan-1 ces. Great pains should be taken to | feed them with clock-work regulari ty, and not to give so much at a time j that some would be left, and a dis- ; taste for food produced; neither j should they ever be allowed to squeal ! off their flesh by waiting impatient-1 ly. BUTTER. —This is usually the best month for the manufacture of butter —the great leading requisites for success in which, are first and most important, good, sweet rich, abund- ! ant pasture; secondly, good cows ; j thirdly, perfect cleanliness in the ; dairy house, iti all the vessels used in it, and in the a'r which surrounds it; fourthly, general skillful management throughout. Under the latter head may be mentioned, shallow pans or shallow milk in the pans, proper tem perature of the cream, and working out all the buttermilk. TOP-DRESSING MEADOWS. —The best mode of manuring meadows is thoroughly enriching the soil by ma nure, applied to crops which precedes But scarcely inferior, and perhaps equal to this treatment, on clayey soils, is autumn topdressing. The manure for this purpose should be broken fine, and very evenly spread. Harrowing, some weeks after the ap plication of the manure, will often be useful where the grass is short. The manure, thus applied, causes a strong autumn growth, enriches the surface soil by the washing in of autumn rains, and both the manure and in crease of grass protects the roots du ring winter, and give an early growth in spring. MANURE. —The hog-pens and com post heaps should receive everything that will .decay. The fermentation in compost heaps may need quicken ing by a few pailsful of manure liq uor. Use plaster to prevent the loss ammonia, sprinkling it over the ma nure while it is in active fermentation and upon stable floors, kc. All lands on which clover or grasses are grown, must either have lime in them naturally, or that miner al must be artificially supplied in the form of lime stone, oyster shells, or marl. . All permanent improvement of land must look to lime as its basis. tOgf Less laud, more pains bestow ed in cultivating it, and a variety of good stock, will be foundJiighly profi table. The C'liieiiKO Convention. The Platform of the Chicago Conven tion will satisfy every foreign and domes tic enemy of American Union and Liber ty. Tt declares that the Government Of the United States is guilty of resistiug rebellion, and that the American people can not maintain the authority of their laws. It has no Word of righteous wrath against the recreant citizens who have plunged the country in the blood of civil war. but lavishes its fury upon the consti tuted authorities which have steadily de fended the Union. It has 110 censure for anj' act of rebellion, but the war measures taken by the Administration, under the authority of the Constitution, are branded as tyrannical and despotic. There is not a word in it that can cheer any soldier or sailor fighting for bis country; not asyla ble that stirs the blood of a patriot. It jis craven, abject, humiliatirg. It confess es the defeat of the Union cause, and cov ertly implores the mercy of Jefferson Da i vis and his crew. I Ami this at a moment when stout old Farragut is thunderiug at Mobile; when | the inexorable Grant clutches at the Wel don lload. which, as an officer in his army writes, it " like touching the cubs of a ti gress;" when Karly's Shenandoah inva | sion is too late for success; when Sherman | is closing around Atlanta; when State af ter State is i applying its quota of fresh j soldiers; when gold steadily declines; I when a universal public confidence awak i cuing; and when the rebels are plainly, palpably struggling to hold out only long j enough to see ft the election, by the ele | vation of the Chicago candidate, will not | turn to their advantage. Never again will this nation have afair ! er chance of maintaining its cuistitution !al authority than it has now. For three | years it has, at every disadvantage, bat j tied against this formidable conspiracy, and never was the conspiracy in so des ! perate a strait. The country has it by the throat. A little more force, a closer \ pressure, and the monster falls strangled, ! dead forever. A little less force, a relax i ed hold, a wavering purpose, and the sca ly folds of rebellion thrill with hope to the extremity; it renews its strength, it ! recruits its venom, and darts a deadlier j blow at the life of the country. As the Chicago Platform declares the j war hopeless, its friends will of course 1 wish to see its position confirmed. Every victory of Grant, of Farragut, and of I Sherman will therefore be unwelcome, j Every brave man who enlists will be | grudged. The rise of juices will be hailed with delight; while universal dis asters to our armies and navies, and the victories of the rebel armies will be hail ed with exultation as conclusive proof of the •' failure to restore the Union by the | experiment of war." There is not an English lord or European aristocrat, not a sncerer at popular government and friend of despotism in the world, who will not applaud the Chicago Platform and hope j for the success of its candidate. | 'flic political campaign is opened. It will be short, sharp, and decisive, and the most momentous the country has ever ; known. If Mr. Lincoln is re-elected the l.'nion, the authority oi the Government, and the national honor will Ie iimi»taili ed unconditionally; the rebellion, straiu ■ ed and baffled on every side, will be sup { pressed ; and the peace and prosperity of | the country be permanently re-established. If ticucral McClcllan is elected there will | he an attempt to negoitate, to compromise, !to bargain with the rebels. In the effort I it is not the disputed point, it is the'dig- nity and character of the Government i which w ill be compromised. A trcacher- I ous truce will be patched up and labeled I peace, and after staggering under its dis honor and disgrace lor a miserable while j the country will plunge forward again in | to the flaming gulf of war. | The issue is simple and sublime. It is I the life or the degradation of the nation j It is to *hoxv that a Government of the ! people is equal to every exigency—ready 1 tor taxation, ready for military service, | ready for endurance, ready tor forbearance 1 —that it is as strong as any Government j in the world, and stronger—that in war it j is as powerful and resolute and orderly as ' in peace it is industrious and prosperous, i There seems to us but one way in which this can be shown, but one way in which ! utter national humiliation can be avoided, and that it is by the steady and strong hand of war until the rebels confess the ; authority of the Government. That is the policy which is personified in Abra ! ham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson, and which we shall most strenuously support, for it is the cause of the peace and happi ness of the American people.— Harpers' Wecl-ty. tksf T(ic Fairmont National (West ; Virginia)says that I lyases N. Arnett, j delegate from that district to the Chicago | Convention, reached home last Saturday, i and j "Was immediately surrounded by all the I dilapidated chivalry of Fairmont to learn j his ideas respecting the prospects of their | second choice (Jeff Davis is their first \ choice) for the Presidency. We learn that he gave them the comfortable assu ranee that McClcllan would be elected, and that the war against hit two sons, their sons, and all their friends fighting for their -rights' would be instantly stop ped ; the greatest freedom of speech will then prevail, and the martyrs now confin ed in - Liucolns liastiles' will be released. Arnett it seems, was not allowed »n speak or vote in the Convention, but his prcs there was no doubt very congenial to him self and gratifying to the 'Democracy' generally." BOT A Wisconsin paper says, on the faith of a private letter, that times are awful hard in Canada. No busi ness done, wages not sufficient to pay board, and almost impossible to get . work at any thing. The country is overrun with skedaddles from the United States and the Confederacy, while thousands of the Canadians are \ leaving for the States to procure work. Among the curious French advertisements is the following :—"A man desires to find a wife who has ' i suffered much." We would like to j see a wife who has not " suffered I according to her own story.

Compelled a year since to increase the price of its several Issues, or submit t<> the pecuniary ruin of it* proprietors from the very magnitude of its circulation, it has probably since parted with some natrons to whom its remarkable cheapness wan a controlling recommenda tion; but others have taken their place, anl*ed or transformed old organi zation* through the spontaneous uprising »-f the people of the Free States against the repud|ath>n of the Missouri llest/ietion. The Tribune heartiiy participated in that movement, and was known as Republican. When the long smoldering conspiracy to divide and destroy our country or reduce it entire to complete abasement to the Slave Power culminated in overt trees-n and rebellion, it naturally, necessarily regarded resistance to this con spiracy a« paramount to all other considerations, and de v.ited all it«j energie- ami eflbtts to the i Qhitciiance of our Union. In every great controversy v.. h bus divided our country. it has been found on that side which natu rally commands the sympathy and support of the large majority of school-house* and the decided minority of grog-shops, mid so doubtless will be to to the last. Ard«*ntly desiring and striving for the early and endu ring adjustment of our National distraction*,The Tribune leaves the time, the nature and the conditions of that ad justment implicitly to those lawfully in authority, con fiding in their wisdom and patriotism, anxious to aid them to the utmost in their arduous responsibilities and not to embarrass them even by possibility.
