Now the work must be pushed. It will soon be too late for Beets, Turnips, Carrots, Irish Potatoes, Peas-that is, to secure good crops. If good seasons are opportune in May and June, success may be gained. Take good care of every thing that is under way from pre vious sowings. Thin out to a stand .s soon as possible. CABBAGE, LETTUCE AND CELERY plants put out. Bed your smooth est, largest sweet potatoes in cold frame or hot bed if you choose, and so have plenty of fine plants by the middle and latter part of April. Put in seeds of Tomato, Egg-plant, Pepper, in frame -or warm border. Get ready seeds of Cucumber, Squash, Melon, Water melon, so as to be ready by the latter part of the month.- Of Cu cumbers, the old approved sorts, "Early Frame," "Early Cluster," "Long Green" are good enough. The Green Prolific is bigIy praised. .No better summer Squash than the golden Crookneck. In ordering squash seed put down a i pound or more of "Hubbard" or "Marblehead" to plant in June for winte1t use. Hills 10 x S and 2 or 3 vines to the hill. Of melons, Sill's Hybrid and Cassaba are ex cellent. Set apart a hill or two to provide seed for the next year, letting the fruit of all mature thor: oughly. Okra; sow and put in seed thickly. The Southern Smooth pod decidedly better than the ribbed sorts. BEANS - Commence to plant about the 20-25th,. The China Red Eye of the bush sorts has al ways given satisfaction. Some prefer the running sort s, but we think a good bush bean is to be preferred, planting in 2 or 21 feet drills, 4 or 5 seed every 12 inches; plant every 2 or 3 weeks for a suc cession. Sow radishes from time to time if desired. A poor vege table, but relished by many. CoRs-Commence planting at once. Of the numerous varieties of Early Corn, Adams' Extra Early is the earliept perhaps, and being very dwarf; allows of thick plant ing-say 21 feet rows and one foot apart in the row on good land. "Triumph," "Stowell'sEvergreen," "Early Minnesota," "Penn. Flint," "Tuscarora," are all good varieties. Put most of the manure around the plants to be hoed in. CAULIFLoWER-If you will, try a few plants and nurse them well. If successful, you may feel proud of it. Extra Early Dwarf Erfurth (selected) and" "Early Snow ball" the best and surest, it is stated, by those who growv them. . * The field crops will now claim * the attention of the farmer, and unless he is careful, he may neg lect the garden to his disad vantage. By giving the odd hours faithfully to the garden however, much may be done towards se curing a host of delightful vege tables. Wc do not mean to say that the garden should have only the odd hours, but throw them in gratis. LIQUID MANURING. In a convenient spot have a hogshead or barrel, for the pur-' pose of keeping a supply of liquid -manure, which may be made either of Peruvian guano, poultry manure, or in the absence of these, from manure from corn fed horses. About 4 quarts of the first to a barrel, i bushel of the second, and~ 'one bushel of the latter. The bar rel may be refilled, and a smalier quantity of the materials added. Apply to plants in seed beds or in the open ground. Apply -about the roots and not on the leaves. A tablespoonful of sul phate of ammonia to every 2 gal lon~ of wnter is arefreshin r an We would urge ton ail the planting largely of both Irish and sweet Dotatoe. The future is very dark, and we must endeavor to raise an abundlnce of something to eat. Have a fe v pigs on band to feed all refuse to. Look ahead and have plats mar'ed out for a second crop of Irish p,tatoes, Beets. Turnips, especia'ly Ruta bagas, Winter Squages, C. bbages and Collars. The tms d,mand an usual displav oi energy, and woe be unto him who rises ate and toils unsteadily. S. A. . Milledgeville, Ga. CoRx.-We trust that our fxr mers see and feel the great ne cessity of planting and raising a good crop of corn. One requisite is to see that a largre area of your farm is plante d in cron : and another requisite is, to see to it that the ground is prop erly prepared, the seed care fully selected, and the crop when growingjudiciously and prudently worked. There is a great deal of idle talk about the condition of the moon upon crops, and silly talk about men's 'luck.' If a far mer will prepare his ground thor ougbly, mfnure it judiciously, have a good many rows, and long ones, of corn and cotton ; will watch them and work them well, and the seasons are good, the moon will do her duty, and 'luck' is apt to be on the farmer's side. To make a start to have luck break your corn land thoroughly, seeing that a suffi ciency c- fertilizers is on it. Get an early stand as soon as possible. Do not plow your land when it is too wet, but see to it that the plowing is thoroughly done. Work your corn at the right time. Do not stop a mule to ride off to the postoffice to see if Senator Hill is paired off on the silver bill, or to talk politics. Your great interest, your silver mine, is not in Wash ington city, but on your farm, and it is a silver mine, so far as corn is concerned, which must not be neglected. As good a plan as any to have luck and the moon on your side in regard to corn, is to use fertilizers. Do not run your corn rows too close, break out the middles deep, subsoil and plant in the water furrow, cultivate shal low and work faithfully, and you will come out all right. (Constitution. SEEDS IN A PoUND.-Th6 follow ing is given as about the average: T1he number of seeds of wheat in one pound is 10,000.. The number of seeds in one pound of barley is 15,400. The number of seeds in one pound of oats is 30,000. The number of seeds in one pound of buckwheat is 25,000. ' The number of seeds in one pound of red hover is 249,600. The number of seeds in one pound of white clover is 688,400. A bushel of clover seed, 60 pounds, will contain 20,976,000 seeds, which, equally distributed over an acre, will give about 3 seeds to the square inch of ground. A writer in the Practical Far mer says that he kept his young orchard well cultivated with hoed crops for several years. They grew eighteen inches to two feet in a season. Only one tree died. A neighbor set out an orchard at the same time and seeded it to grass. In three years one-third of the trees were dead, and those which lived grew only from two to six inches in a year. This is about the usual experience. Harness should never be kept in the stable where manure is constantly generating large quan tities of ammonia. Thbe ammonia is rapidly absorbed by the leather, and the effect upon the leather is about the same as would re,sult from saturating it with strong lye. In a word, ammonia rots leather, and hence keeping harness in the stable is sure to result in its damage, more or less. What shall I give ? To the hungry, give food ; to the naked, clothes; to the sick, some com fort ; to the sad, a word ofconsol ation ; to all you meet, a smile and a cheery greeting. Give forgive nss to your enemies; give pa tience to the fretful ; give love to your households; and, above all, give your hearts to God.

The Commissioner of Agriculture, in his report for the year 18753, speaks as follows: "There can be no doubt of the general adulteration of all malt liquors. In England and other countries, where heavy penalties are imposed, and an increasing vigilance practiced to detect and punish such frauds, by a system of inspectionl of all malt liquors manufactured before exposed to sate, the practic is very common. How mach more inl tis country, where there are no laws on the subject, and no officer to carefully ana lyze the produc:s of the brewery? Some years ago, Professor Mapes, of New York, ialyzed the beer from a dlozen (different breweries, and all were f.und adulterated with noxious substances. It is said that th~e sa!e of drugs to brewers is a profitable part of the trade. This is perfietly infamous. CocculIus indlicus, (tisb-berry,) nux vomica, (dog--hutton, from which strychnine is ob tained,) are somneof the delectabe substances found in beer! These are potent poisons, and the brewer found using thern should lbe ro;,ued at once in one of his own vats. The British Parliament passed a law to pre ent this nefarious business. The following is an extract: 'No druggist, vender of or ealer in drugs, or chemist, or any other person, shall sell or deliver to any licensed. rewer, dealer in or retailer of beer, knowing them to be such, or shall sell or deliver to any person on account of, or in trust for, any su 'beer, dealer or retailer, any liquor alled by the name of or sold for coloring, from whatever material the same may be ade; or any material or preparation other han unground brown malt, for the darken ng the color of worts beer, or any molasses, itriol, honey, quassia, cogcolus indicus, rains of paradise, Guinea pepper, or opium, r any extract or preparation of molasses, or any article or preparation to be used in worts eer for or as a substitute for malt or hops; and if any druggist shall offend in any of these articulars, such preparation,. &c., shall be forfeited, and may be seized by any officer of xcise, and the person so offending shall for feit five hundred pounds.' I"Under this law, very many druggists and rewers were brought to grief, and yet the ractice continues. Unless the American ublic are ready to admit the immaculate urity and innocence of American brewers, hey must be content, while drinking their eer, to cherish the belief that they are at the same time guzzling some narcotic poison or amaging medicine. In view of ,the unpre edented growth of the barley crop; of the great increase of the number of malsters and rewers; of the vast unknown quantities of eer that are drunk in every city and almost very town on the continent, it is the dictate f sound wisdom that the attention of legis ators should be called to the subject of the adulteration of our malt liquors, and severe enalties should be inflicted as a preventive." JOHN C. SEEGERS' BEER is pure and eliable. -Feb. 28, 9-tf.

Ayer's HairYVigor, For restoring Gray Hair to its natural Vitality and Color. A dressing which is at once agree Sable, healthy, and effectual for preserv in g the hair. Faded or gray hair is soon~ restoted to its original color, with the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and baldness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can re store the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied and decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sedimient, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from turning gray or falling' off, and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious sub stances which make some prepara tions dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a. HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desir able. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cam bric, and yet lasts long on the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume. PREPARED BY Dr. i. C.
