Wheat Sprouting.
Even admitting that a larvae portion of the
wheat crop has been subjected to the lateheavy
rains, and sprouted in consequence, it by no
means follows that the farmer is 'ruined' and
a 'famine' inevitable in consequence. An
able article in the New Verb Tribune—a pa
per which is always thormOdy posted sp in all
important facts—completely knocks the wind
out of these 'sprouting' paniegnarkers. The
writer shows that when wheat is sprouted a
good winnowing machine will remove most of
the injured kernels which metre cycellent feed
fur animals. If there be a predominance of
sprouted grains in the print that goes to mill
it is not spoiled for food ; it is only spoiled for
light broad. Tie dough rising by the ordinary
process has a tendency to spread out and form
a sticking mass that will not be breaded into
loaves. It oaken good unleavened bread, and
is quite nutricious, with a sweetish taste.—
By many persons bread made or sprouted
wheat in pretered; but in market the least ap
pearance of grown kernals will injure the sale.
Some millers even contend that one per cent
of such kernels will injure the quidity of the
whole. It is therefore imp:staid to the larintr
that he should be very craefal to beep the
sprouted sheaves seperme fume 11: sound, and
should also seperate the sound s h e me
scund grain in uhtnowing, Ho her possible.
Henry Clay's Late Mansion.
A Sharp and spicy CMlL.Veniy II:t5 been go.
log on tweiat dot r elev. editor Prentice, of
Chu sville Journal and Mr. J. 1% Clay, a
son of Henry Clay, for the wanton tearing
Clown of the house in which tho great Stales•
man lived. In concludinz his reply to Prea•
tico, young Clay says :
"Except what havirbeen sold of these boxes
and woes deposited with Mr. John Wilson for
din purpose stated, the loan who says I have
sold one particle of the old tiltioce of my father's
is it liar and a villain, and 1, before Cod, pro•
nu nee him to be so." _ . .
" Prentice rejoins ut grand style, flooring his
antagonist at every blow'. We have rosin on
ly for the following extract :
..31r. J. r, . Clay says : -Was not the 111a1181011
tore down my mansion ? 1 did not inherit it
front my father Ind purchased it when oll'srod
by his executors at toddle auction to the high
est biller." Yes, BO doubt it not his man
sion ; and he was under no direct pecuniary ob
ligation to his father for it inasmuch as he
it from his flutter's executors and paid
,iur it. And Min is his excuse for its destruc
tion. It Ives his properly ; lie ountcd ;
had ri g ht to do what he pleased with it ;ho
had by lag as much control over it as over any
of his negro Inds ; and no, without a' thought,
of the immortal father whose presence had con
'SCUM,: every bison and rafter and plank and
stick and shingle to the hearts of hundreds of
thousands of American freemen he tore it down.
Ay he bethought hint Self that his legal title
mos good, that the law of the land could take
no hold out bits, that no one could prosecute
hint for damages, and so he demolished the sa
cred edifice witlmm remorse or emotion. Ile
says hittisclf thot he has been denounced 'both
in public and iu private for the deed, and we
can tell hint that the heart 0C the country revol
led at it evmi as that mighty heart would have
at t h e demolition of the Venerable mansion at
Mt. Version by the young seism of Washington
into whose hands it has fallen, and who, uo
doubt, hus as valid a title to it as Mr. J. B.
Clay had to the old 111.8 . 10111 or Ashland.
