.farmer's IRRIGATING MEADOWS. There are few subjects which merit the attention or American farmers mere than that of irrigation. In many parts of New England, and in the grazing and dairy districts of Hiis-State and Pennsylvania, there are thousands of acres of land that might be irrigated in the simplest, easiest and most economical manne r possible. We have often been surprised to see small streams of water running to waste while the parched and poverty stricken meadows in the neighborhood, which might easily have been iirigated by this wa ter, produced not more than a ton of hap per acre, and often much less. In irrigating, as in underdraining, it is frequently necessary for a few neighbors to combine in the work. And this is not always an ea=y matter io accomplish. Tn fact, this is one of the greatest difficulties iu the way of any plan for the introduction of irrigation.— We have no remedy to propose which will overcome this hindrance. All that we can do is to call atten tion to the great advantages which irrigation would afford in some sections, and endeavor to show that such combinations as we have alluded to would be mutually beneficial. That irrigation is a great means of increasing the produce of grass lands, will not be disputed. In Eng land we have known many instances where at least three times the amount of hay has been obtained simply by irrigation, with ordinary water, from a small stream that was dammed up and the water con ducted in furrows and allowed to flow over the laud. Ih the last number of the " Journal of the Royal Agricultural Society of England," it is stated that the spring feed alone on the irrigated meadows on the Avon is sometimes let for S4O or SSO per acre, and even S6O. Levi Bartlett, in describing the farm of Mr. San born of New Hampshire, in a recent number of the Albany Cultivator, says Mr. S. commenced irrigating his old mowing fields about twelve years ago. At that time many of them yielded very scanty crops of grass, not over ten to fifteen cwt. per acre. Now, by the application of water alone, these fields yield two tons of first-rate hay per acre, and those which have Deen irrigated longest yielded the heaviest crops. Boussingult, the well known French chemist and farmer, considers a good meadow the cheapest means of enriching the farm; and this is undoubtedly true The extra produce obtained by irrigating grass lands, when fed out to animals, furnishes an extra quantity of manure for the use of the arable upland portions of tho farm.—^Farmer. IMPROVING ODD PASTURES. At a recent agricultural meeting in Cheshire, Eng, Richard Dutton read a paper on the " Agriculture of Cheshire," in which he remarked: An old pasture-field, rich-in good herbage, should never be brought under the plow, on a dairy or graz ing farm, without an urgent necessity. On our best dry soils, old pastures are apt to become rough, and, in some cases, covered with moss. This may be pre vented, to a great extent, by a top-dressing of salt during the winter at the rate of 10 cwt. per acre; or in some cases, a good dressing of lime, at the same time freely harrowing the surface, or what is less ex pensive, stocking them with sheep during the winter months, at the same time feeding them with com or turnips. In a very productive summer, or when a farmer has been unfortunate with his stock, he may, with advantage, mow such parts of his pastures as can be spared for the purpose. It is superfluous for me to.say that on a very large proportion of our grass lands draining and bone dusting are the great means ©f improvement. A question of some importance may be asked : Are all our clay goils improved by drain ihg for mowing and pasture purposes ? I think not. When there i 3 nothing in the herbage produced which indicates the presence of too much water, I think draining will add nothing to the fertility of such soils so long as they are in grass. PURE WATER FOR STOCK. A good draught of good water is, probably, as re freshing to beasts as it is to people. But in the month of August, nearly all domestic animals sufferfar more than we imagine, for want of good water. Sheep will thrive far better. Teams will endure the heat far better if they can have a plenty of clean pure water and if milch cows must drink stagnant water wherev- j er tfcey can find it, how is it possible for them to give their usual flow of good milk? It is impracticable for them to do-it. Some people allow water to stand in troughs day after day, many times, and compel their animals to drink it-ali up.- Did such people ever drin-t water from an old dirty slop-pail, after it hadbeen allowed to stand in the sunshine for two or three days ? Let them try the experiment of drinking such water, and wait the result; uud they will be prepared to express a correct opinion, whether or not such water is as good for stock, in the sultry days of August, as pure oold water would be. Water troughs and water tanks should be cleaned frequently during the hot days of August, and fresh water pumped into them several times a day. Milk cows require a vast quantity of pure water in hot weather, in order to produce their usuul flow of good milk. THE GRAIN DEMAND. The demands for grain and breadstuffs is likely to be unusually large. Not to speak of the foreign mar ket, there will be a great demand at home. The op erations of the war must have diminished the product of grains somewhat in the North, and still more m the South. With all the efforts of the Confederate Government to secure an increased supply of bread stuffs at homo, it is not likely that the South will pro duce as much grain as usual. Every plantation has telt the excitement of the times, and it is impossible, under such circumstances, to get the usual amount of lkbor from slaves. Our advancing army has found destitution in many places, and there is, doubtless, much more than has been heard of There cannot fail to be a great demand for provisions in the South ern States as soon as they are again thrown open to cominerce. It- becomes us, then, to make most of the season that is left us, in. raising all the turnips we can The hay crop is short in many parts of the North,and turnips will save hay. They will also save grain in feeding pigs, sheep, horses and cattle. They will make mutton and wool, beef and pork. - , RECEIPT FOR EIGHT DUMPLINGS* After making up your bread the second time, take off a sufficient quantity for dumplings,and set it away until about on hour before dinner ; then nuke them up in rolls as you would-biacuit; sprinkle a little flour ovwr your pie -board, and put them on it, far euough apart to allow for raising. Have ready a boiler,with sufficient boiling water to steam them; place the steamer over it, and put in some of the dumplings, so us not to touch each other, (see that the lid is placed on tightly,) and let them remain ten inftiutes; then remove them and put in others. Send them to the taMe hot, to be eaten with cream and sugar, or butter and molasses. pise attii pteittise. HOW HE GOT THE COUNTERSIGN. One night after the countersign was on, the qiuar* termaster of owe of the Pennsylvania regiments, en deavoring-to en 9er the lines was-challenged by a* Irish sentinel'. " Holt!

This has been prepared to meet that demand, and an exten sive trial of its virtues has conclusively shown with what ?'*coess it accomplishes the purpose designed. It is easy to make n physical pill, but not easy to make the best of all pill* — one which should have none of the objections, but all the advantages, of I every other. This hai been attempted here, and with what success we would respectfully submit to the public decis'tn. It has been unfortunate for the patient nitherio that almost every purgative medicine is acrimonious and irritating to the bow els. This is not. Many of them produce so much griping pi in and revulsion in the system as to more than counterbalance the good to be derived front them. Thtse pill* produce no faritation or painy unless it arise from a previously existing obstruc tion or derangement in the bowels. Being purely vegetable, no harm can arise from their use m any | quantity ; but it is better that any medicine should be taken judiciously. Minute directions for their use in the several diseases to which they art ap plicable are given on the box. Among the com plaints which have been speedily cured by them, we mav mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms of Jaundice, Indigestion, Languor and Loss of Ap petite, I.istlessness, Irritability, Bilious Headache,- j Bilious Fiver. Fever and Ague, Pain in the Sid# and Loins ; for, in truth, all these are but the tU- I sequence of diseased action in the liver. As an aperient thev afford prompt and sure relief in Cos tiveness, Piles, Colic, Dysentery, Humors, Scrofula and Scurvy, Colds with soreness of the body, Ulcer# and impurity of the blood, Irregularities; "in short, any ana every case where a purgative is required. They have also produced some singularly sue (v-Hsful cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, GraveL F.rysipelas, Palpitation of the Heart, Pains in the Back. Stomach, and Side. They should bo freely j taken in the spring of the year, to purify the blood ( and prepare the system for the change of seasons. An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and bowels into healthy action, and restores the appe tite and vigor. They purify the blood, and, by their stimulant action on the circulatory system, reno vate the strength of the body, and restore the wasted or diseased energies of the whole organism. Hence an occasional dose is advantageous, even though no serious derangement exisflr; but un necessary dosing should never be carried too far, 1 as every purgative medicine reduces the strength, when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which a physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but they suggest themselves to the reason of every body ; and it is confidently believed this pill will answer a better purpose tlian any thing which ha* hitherto been available to mankind. When their virtues are once known, the public will no longer doubt what remedy to employ when in need of at cathartic medicine. Bemg sugar-wrapped, they are pleasant to take, and being purely vegetable, no harm can arise from their use in any quantity. For minute directions, see wrapper on the B"V PREPARED BY i DR. JAMES C.
