The object is to raise funds necessary

to be present and give something
towards making our City of the Dead

Mil. Editor: I run bore, sir. worthing
ami waiting events. When tlie campaign
fires are kimlletl ami the political
horizon begins to warm tip?cxeu-e me.
[sir. I a ingoing beyond my means. What
[ Iin ean to say is, that I am (). K. on
political matters. I belong to tliat
school of politicians who support measures,
ratlmr than men always. ]>ut
' the political fever is not very high in me
now Of late, my head has been turned
in the direction of pretty actresses
and . Ily the way, Mr.
Editor, I am proud to say that Flat
Kock is gcttiug to be a place of no mean
importance. On the 28th ult.. (as
stated in your last issue.) the T<. II. S.
{}. favored us with otio of its delightful
entertainment4, and delightful if was,
too. I would like very much to say
something nice ah >ut the different characters,
but confess my inability to du
a i
them justice. The acting of Miss W.
j in the character nf Mrs Maloprop in
j the play of the Rival?, was certainly fatabove
the average amateur acting, and
tijen the peculiar language jf tliat
1 chnractor was so wry wel
i any way it was head and shouldcis in
advance of Mrs. I'urtinjtou in style,
| and reminded nte somewhat of the old
j woman $. rr in "'Arkansaw.' who said
that her child was very sick with nwjrstic
chill*, and she feared that it was {join;*
into mi fhtJiouxjccer. If this should
I chance to fall under the eye of the beautiful
and accomplished Mrs. Maloprop
I trust that she will be generous enough
to forgive and forget the comparisons,
the first, opportunity.
Then again, there being no prospect
1 whatever of a war inside of the next
generation, we Flat Rockers, are becoming
very how provoking to be in
want of high style ianguagc to express
our idea. Well, in plain English, wc
have organized a military company, and
in military parlance it numbers seventy

j indisposition just before the fight Then
' agaio we have a Planter's Hotel, the
i furniture of which consists of two chairs,
a stool with ar. odd number of legs, two
tin plates, a cup and one iron spoon.
: Other luxuries in like proportion.
to table comforts, they are about ditto
with the furniture. I shall expect a
free lunch (more likely a sore head) at
, an early day.
I think so much of the good old
i Camdkn Journal that I would be
| most happy indeed to give you something
nice and interesting for its columns
but the fact is, we Fiat Rockers arc
! such a law abiding, quiet, peaceable.
; temperate, (best reasons in the world
i for being temperate,) good natured,
aud good for 1 was going to
say good for nothing sort of people,
! but as that might not be exactly the
, truth I will omit it; any way there is so
much of a sameness ever present with
us, that mulling ever o?curs worth a
cent as a news item. l?uc few births,
I no deaths, can't afford to d;c, an I to
poor to get married* I fa marriage should
take place, it is so quiet and sly that we
, may never hear of it until there is a call
i for remnants of edico.

I P. S. Farming arrangements about as
usual at this season of the \ear. Am
anxious to leave out nothing in the way

The American Farmer,
For.March is full of seasonable instruction,
nil of it it evidently from j radical
and nblc hands. In the agricultural department
much space is given to manures,
and the work incidental to the season is
abundantly treated. The live stock and
poultry departments embrace many appropriate
articles, and an interesting account
is given of the successful preservation, on a
large scale, of green corn-fodder, after the
French fashion, an iinprovcm-u. which
promises to be so great a boou to dairy
farmers.
The horticultural pages are unusually
attractive. Fruit culture, the cultivation
of flowers in the garden and the house, and
as especially suited to the time of the year,
the management of vegetable and "truck"
crops receives special attention. One of
the attractive features is the home department
for ladies of the farm hsusehoM, and
another is the grange news, addresses, &c.
The sub.acription price of this old journal
with whibh our farmers ought to be weil
acquainted, is $1.50 a year, or $1 to clubs
of five or more. Samtial Sands & Son,
