* I' For the Times. About Oroh&rd Grass. #have been sowing Orchard Grass Tor some rs and think it the best gross for upland ^Matures wo know auything of. It will stand * -%iore grazing and hot sun than any grass 1 have fver tried. 1 have sown thoTall Meadow Oat, Italian Rye, Perennial Rye and Orchard Grass, all together. The latter took possession of the ground, in n -+ rich piece of very open Timber land. ?"~ Break tip the ground at least twice with a long scooter plow, harrow, aud then sow trco himliplii of plnan ?a ll?? ??? -?-1 * - * This seems like heavy seeding, but it will pay in getting a good stand. It will do to sow from now until the 1st of November. The books will say something like this : "It is very nutritious and very palatable to all kinds of stock. It gives a bite earlier than almost any other gross ; is permanent; will bear close and constant croppiug; stands severe drought, and when cut will, in a week, give another good bite to stock. It is, therefore, admirable as a permanent pasture grnss. It blossoms with clover, gives a very large proportion J of hay, grows a speedy and luxuriant aftermath, and, with clover, makes a permanent meadow." If your friend wishes any clovor "in his," one and a half bushels - of Orchard Grass and 'two gallons of olover need, mixed, is the quantities I would advise. By the way, Mr. Editor, suggest to your friend to help you establish an Agricultural column or twa, in your paper, aed advise him to take tlie ' Culttvactfr and >1 AfrifHuritt. * . Death or Rkv. Jas. A. Duncan, D. D.? Wherever a true man, faithful and heroic overy inch to his exalted mission ; broadly liberal in ail his views ; bringing to his labors a mind originally brilliant and enriched with all the aoquioitions and adornmeuts of long years of arduous study ; wherever such a man is appreciated, and the good of his life and his labor felt, there will the death of Dr. Duncan be deplored and there will his memory bo fondly cherished. it sumces mat we join in the expression of sorrow and sympathy which will flow in ono volume from North and South when the sad news is flashed abroad that this Prince in Israel has prematurely gone from his place of labor. Doctor Duneen had the privilege of preaching the first sermon heard by Presideut Hayes after hie accessionvto the Executive office. Its bur^ den was pesos and good will, the song of the angels ; and we may be sure that the President, receiving yesterday the respects of a Virginia oity. did not fail to recall those earnest words which fin*Impressed his duty upon him, from a religion standpoint, as uttered by the gifted and elorpeut. Virginian whom he heard in the Foundry chureh. Thus the lament for his death will begin with the first sttlsen of the Republic; it will reach through thousands of the humblest, who were no less Ids admirers and friends.?Fetertbiirg Index, 26tA.
