~.,. Arresting Hemorrhage. . . A. large number of deaths from wounds,'_ might be prevented,if the means werd'im mediately at hand to stop the flow of blood from some interY. 'ln any ease the loss of blood is a diaaster from which it takes a long time to recover. The means to be ta ken to save life must be adopted _ instantly, before a surgeon cau be called, and 'there fore ought to be very commonly understood. Bleeding from 'a' vein is of little compara tive consequence . ; that from an artery is in dicated at .once by coming ont in jets at each beat of the heart, and being of a scar let color instead of a purple. lithe wound be of such a character that the end of The artery can be Oven, it can be readily taken up with hook or 'sharp pciinted fork by anyone vho keeps his wits about him Ai -spite oft 9 sullen alarm, and tied with a strong thkead„i i Otherwise; tie, the limb be tween the ism rid and the heart, the simplest device being to bind the handkerchief around and running a stick beneath the knot, Mist ing it tip until - the requisite pressure be at tained to stop the bleeding. Every intelli gent per Son should make it his bUsiness to learn practically from some medical friend the best method of extemporizing, a tourni quet, and the places where the compress is best applied. : A little knowledge of this kind sill not unfrequently go a great ivay in saving the life of a friend. Ordinary bleeding front small cuts or in jUries may be stopped by cold water or by ' pressure until a clot has had time to form. The wisdom. of our Maker has made this R ontlerlui provislon, that as soon as the blood ceases to circulate in its proper chan mlB, or conies in coot:let with the air, it will coagulate. - Bji this means a plug is for ;lied at the mouth of un open reset to stop thi. fi.:w of blood. Cold water and other sty p th 8, likesulphate of iron, tannin, alum, and niatico, would hasten this result. , Curing Hay. With their carefully prepared, roots. and herbs, many of our mothers, or grandmoth ers, could Its well alleviate the ills , Of hu manity as can many of our college-bred M. ll's ; but note with what care those roots and herbs were gathered anti ,prepared,— That they might retain all their virtues, they were invariably cured in the shade. -L-- Now, we as farmers, may learn from this a lesson of wisdom and practical Utility, as ap plied to the hay field. Cure in the shade versus -make hay while the sun shines.— Now the question arises, which of these two antagonistic principles of maxims shall we follow ? Certainly, after due reflection, We will admit that bay made in the shade is su perior to that cured in the sun, whereas the forme v method requires more labor than the latter. in answer to the above interroga tions, both the price of hay and the price of labor must ho taken into consideration ; therefore, in general, we reply, that if labor is plenty and hay commanding large prices —cure to the shade ; hid if labor is high and hay k at low figures—cure in the sun.— There are also other matters to betaken into account. Thus a large crop of clo\Ler should invar iably be cut, and partially Iwiltcd, gathered Up in haycocks of suitablefize and allowed to sweatia day or two ; thvii open the salmi and after an hour's expolare to the sun it will be jil a 111( . / St excellent condition to store lawny for winter's use. i Therefore cure clover in the shade, or cock, not simply be cause the sweating process is so highly ben eficial to this particular grass, but because, if the crop be large, it will regnire, to cure it sufficiently, at least one or two days' ex posure to the sun, and as a matter of ne cessity, exposing it to the night dew, and possibly to an unexpected rain bto.llll. Now, as at hot sun is particularly injurious to clo ver, and moisture, Its dew or rain, far more so, then clover, at least, .should be treated in the manner above described, or cured in Ihe . shade. Avoid the ,ve6- common and Injurious practice of (*crewing the hay.— If the grass is matured when cut, and does not get wet, it will be sufficiently dried or cured in from Iwo to four hours in favora ble weather,' clover, early cut, mid lodged grasses being:of course, exception.q!—jou r ote qf the Farm, Setting Out Fruit Trees friend of mine, experienced in the cul ture of fruit and flowers, has furnishedlne with the following hints in reference to set ting out fruit trees. The success of his plan is demonstrated by the fact that the trees he set out in the fall bore fruit the following summer. On the lira of September, t`;67, having sonic [fees lie wished to transplant, lie dug holes two and a half feet, in diame ter, and two feet in depth, carefully laying the top soil on one side, and the clayey soil on the other. Some virgin soil, or wood's earth, was then hauled in, and, all things being in 'earliness, during the hist - of Sep t et ober , I he holes having been half-filled with the wood's earth, he had his trees, (peach, apples and plums) taken up, beirk very particular to prevent any injury to the small roots , the larger troots were cut oft with a spade, and afterward trimmed smoothly with a knife. The trees. ere top dressed very closely. • They were then set in the holes to thc.deptli at which they originally grew, and die top soil placed in among the roots, the balance of the wood's earth ,being driwr, in until the holes were filled. The time of ransplaming was about ten days before frost, thi' leaves not having fallen from the trees. Four of them had been bearing an!d, when summer came, they yield ed their' fruit. The second summer they did not look quite so thriving as before, but they h4c since then recovered, and are now dolhg very well. The following February lie had occasion to remove one of the peach l trees, and found that the larger roots he hall previously trimmed wore full of small, ten der roots at the end, an abundance of fi lm., haying grown out also on the other „iii,. This tiro also bo e fruit the follow -‘lfiumer. fluxing the season they had rnado.ti top growth of nearly four feet.— ( oIiED 01; C1331131+1113. —"lt does not seem to he very generally known," says an ex change, "that the cucumber is one of the nioNt useful vegetables we have, and can be dressed hi a greater variety of .palatable ways than any other except the tomato. • It is better than squash and more delicate than the egg-plant, prepared in the same murmur; 'eau be stewed, fried or, stuffed, ;and, above all, can be par-boiled, mashed uP in batter and fried us fritters, more pleastint and ens ily prepared than any other vegetable or fruit. When a cucumber becomes just too old to be used raw or for pickling, it is then at its 116 st for cooking, and may be used for that pbrpose even until the seeds become hard. A raw cucumber is, for most per sons, an indigestible abomination, however much they may admire its Over and od4 FILLING LAMPB.—Scarcely a week passes hut we read recounts of frightful accidents from kerohetta lamps eKploding and killing or :,i•ariing for life, men, women and ehil drip. A simple linowirdge of the inflam able nature of the liquiq may put a stop to nearly all the accidents. As the oil burns dm% II in the lamp intlamaide gas gathers over the surfaei. When the oil is nearly consumed, a slight jar will inflame the gas, and an explosion follows. the lamp is not allowed to Intra over h a lf way down, aechle»ta arc ahm,A. impossible. Ilow allux Pi.ow is EMMA:in.—Various Opinions still . exist tiasre as to the required dt pt ha. Tins operation must be regulated according to the nature of the soil and the kind of crop intended to be grown. For instanCe, for the wheat crop the depth varies f rom live to six ineheg ; barley and oats font to live inehea ; beans and peas, :ix to eight ; and formangold wur-zel, turnips, kohl rabbi, carrots, parsnips, and cabbages the soil should be. plowed from ten . to four- teen inches. To EXPEL Pmts.—Dr. Ilewson, of Phil adelphia, says hanging branches of May weed or wild chamomile in flower, about a roan, will expel flies, or even strewing the dried dowers about will answer. Also, par tially born black pepper by putting it on a hot shovel. Throwing - a netting over the bed will keep them out, no matter hew large the meshes, so there is not a window or door behind the bed, so that the light will shine directly on it. CREAM PUFFI3.--On pint of water, one .half pound of butter, three-quarters of a pound of dour, ten eggs. Boil the water and butter together, and stir in it the - flour while boiling. Take it 'Ahem the stove to cool, and when cold break in the eggs and stir then► thoroughly, but not beat them. Then add a teaspoonful of water.. ,Drop into a pan with a spoon, and bake in a quick oven twenty minutes. SWEET PICKLEB (Pnactre.s.)—Boil a pick le made of one pint and a half of cider vin legar, three pounds of sugar, with mace, cloves and cinnamon • pour this boiling hot over six pounds of fruit. Plums requirefive pounds of sugar to six pounds of fruit. ;I DIRGE FOR H. D. Close the polls, his work II ilOue t- - Wlist to law Is friend or foetuan. ltiKe of wheat, or fall of cont. 'Woodhull.

A brother Teuton describes -Mr. Schutz as "a shent,leman dot is very elastic mit his brains.'' The Trenton Gazette sgys : Thousands of New Jersey Democrats will not vote - at all; and a large number will - vote for Grant:" . A San Francisco party Ilia 3 sold 114 tons of barley, for which he 'is :to, receive two vents a pound if Grant is elected, find noth ing if he is not. . • " Of all the prominent Melt in. the Coun try," says shrewd old Jerry Alec-1i "Horace re Geley is the only one wholack; every sin _gle qualification for the Presidene.y." A let ter from Morgantown, W.' Va., days: "There is not a Greeley Republican in our county. The Dettmerats are, generally for Greeley, but some; of them say they - will vote for Grunt, and a large number will•abstain from voting for any one. . One member of the Delaware Demberatie State Convention, loudly asserted that .he would be a Democrat as long as he had a tongue to wag, an arm to lift, or a 'dollar to spend, but that if Greeley was nominated at Baltimore, his head should be taken from his body before ho would vote for him. The New York Herald wants. Greeley to array himself in his old white ha and lqng brown coat and go South. It says: ' A. rear view of him in this costume bears a close .11:semblance to a• respectable planta tion negro of old Virginia, and we believe he Would Make a hit among • the 'colored brethren." Here is another ping for which Grant and his administration must be promptly and repeatedly arraigned. The services of fifteen out of twenty-live Supervisors of In ternal Revenue have just been diipensed with, a saving of about one hundred thous ands dollars per annum. Go on- with the arraignment. Speaking of Greeley, the Portland (Me.) Press gays that there is no escaping the con viction that no good cause has anything to hope from a character so weakly constitut ed ; and that it has been often shown that his mental and moral defects develop. in ex act proportion to the responsibilities he as 811111C3. • The fact that twenty-three thousand Re publicans have been scourged, banished, or murdered in the South by Democratic Ku- Max since the war, is considered highly en couraging by Mr. Greeley's friends. If the Radical vote has been reduced by that num ber, it is thought the Democrats ought how to be able to carry some of the States which have been nearly equally divided. The Prairie du Uhien (Wis.) Couri l er, a Democratic jourfial, is to be added to the list of those which refuse to advocate the election of Greeley. The editor says that he knows there arc over five hundred of his readers in the county of Crawford, Wiscon sin, alone who do not wish to vote for Gree ley. "They are true Democrats," he says ; "have stood by us many years, and now we intend to stand by them:" The Camden (Ala.) Roes and Pacaftwor, a Democratic". journal, refuses' to support' Greeley. It says: "Mr. Greeley-has forced the Democratic patty, or a large majority of it, into his jupport. He has intimated that unless hewr nominated at Baltimore he would with( raw, and give his support to the man whom we desired to defeat. • He has effected his purpose, though at a serious cost to the South. We opposed. him from principle. We arc conscientious in our op position to him." The Evans Ring to a man are against liartrauft and for Buckalew. — rites is for Buckalew because he knoxiillartranft will 'never pardon him out of the penitentiary. Evans, who stands in dread of the peniten= tiary, - is for Buckalew for a similar reason. Forney is opposed to liartranft and for Buckalew, because Hartranst exposed• his complicity with Evans ,and. broke up the swindling arrangement whereby his "two papers, both daily," were to'receive $20,000 of the outcome in consideration of Forney's influence in securing Evans's appointment as State Agent. Hon. Graham N. Fitch, ex-United States Senator from Indiana, a representative man in the Democratic party, with which he has affiliated from the time of his youth until now, has publicly repudiated the Baltimore nomination and announced his- purpose of supporting President Grant.: 'What With' the peremptory declination of the Demo cratic nominee for Lieutenant, Governor Of the State, the defection of ex-Senator Fitch, 'and the disgust of other prominent and in fluential men of the party, the Indiana De mocracy are in a sorry plight. It is evident that the prairies are not in danger of being set on fire by " Greeley enthusiasm," MEMBER HE ' 'l 4 1; . 11' 1 . J'.; PE J. R.
