FARM AND GARDEN.
Mat, to the majority of our readers, is
the corn-planting month. No other crop
•o demands that “we make haste slowly,’’
as this. Com being a tropical, or at least
a subtropical, plant, it requires a higher
temperature for its germination and
growth than do natives of temperate re¬
gions. The Indian’s rule for planting,
when the young oak leaves are as large
ss a squirrel’s ear,” and the rule of the
New England farmers, to plant when the
ehad-flower bush is in bloom, are only
d.fferent ways of saying, “wait until the
ground is warm.” By whatever natural
sign the time may be fixed, it will be
found that the season is so far advanced
that the thermometer averages sixty de¬
grees ia the shade. Com is a rapid
grower, and demands a large amount of
plant food, and some quick-acting fertili¬
zer may be profitably sown with the seed,
to give the young plants a good start.
The manure from the poultry house may
Oe best disposed of here. Whether to
plant in hills or drills, should be de
Vmiined by the condition of the soil.
Planting in drills gives more plants, and
consequently a greater yield to the acre,
and is best on clean land; hill-planting
allows the crop to be worked both ways,
and is preferable on weedy soils. The
chief enemies to sprouting corn are vari
(us cut-wurms and grabs below grouud,
and crows aud blackbird ■ after it ia up.
Tarrin. tho seeds will keep off insects,
h pint of warm t„r is stirred with a peck
of reed, until every kernel is evenly
’Gated, then roll in plaster. Birds are
kept off by scarecrows of some kind; clat
tering wind mills being among the most
effective.
Grass lands shon’d be put in order for
the mower by rolling; pick up fallen
’ranches and whatever rubbish that will
obstruct the machine. No sensible far¬
mer will pasture his meadows in spring.
1 hundred pounds of nitrate of soda to
the acre will be a profitable application,
as will a bushel or two of plaster to clover.
As soon as the soil is ready, plant po¬
tatoes. Early planting of early varieties
is advisable where the beetle is trouble¬
some If “the bug” attacks the crops, do
not delay the use of paris green.
If root-crops are not grown on the
farm, try a f w mangels this year; next
year there will be a field of them. Mark
off rich, well-mel owed soil in fifteen
inch rows, and drop a few seeds at every
foot; cover an inch deep, and make the
soil firm over them. When well up, re¬
move all but the strongest plants. Some
of the globe varieties are to be preferred
to the long kinds.
Fodder crops to follow the rye must
be provided. As soon as a strip of rye is
cut off, plow, ai.d sow early sweet corn
or oats, for a succession of fodder.
About Strawberries, Ve^r.'ables, Etc.
Give strawhr.’ry beds a mulch of straw,
coarse 2iay, or even corn stalks, to keep
ttTe fruit from being soiled. Sawdust and
tan should not be used, as they adhere to
the fruit. In southern localises, fruit
for northern markets must not be picked
t o ripe; if to be over twenty-four hours
in transit, no berries should be full col¬
ored when packed.
New shoots of blackberries and rasp¬
berries will start from the roots; select
three or four from each stoo for next
year’s fruiting, and hoe up the others.
Currants and gooseberries should lie
mulched. Upon the first appearance of
holes in the eaves, kill the worm with
white hellebore, using a tablespoonful of
the powder to a pai ful of water; apply
with a syringe or garden-pump.
Newly planted grape vines should bear
bnt a single shoot the first year; rub off
all others, i nd keep that tied up to a
i ake. i he leaf-rolling caterpillar, found
mong the leaves of a growing shoot, is
i ’est destroyed by hand-picking. If rose
bugs appear at flowering time, shake off
early in the morning, and catch in a pin
containing water with a little kerosene.
Beets, carrots and other root crops
should be thinned freely, and the weeds
in the rows removed.
C abbages nd cauliflowers are for¬
warded by frequent and deep hoeing.
Sow seeds of these in the open ground for
late crops. If the Savoy cabbages are
not grown, try them.
Sow celery teed in rows eight or ten
inches apart; roll, or pat with the back
of a spade, to bring the soil in close con¬
tact with the seeds.
Cucumbers, melons, etc., the seeds of
which were sown on sods, or in pots, may
go out. They will grow all the better if
covered nights and cold days with frames
made by tacking cotton cloth over bot¬
tomless boxes. Sow seeds in the open
ground.
Seeds of “sweet herbs,” such as thyme,
sage, etc., shou d be sown in beds in the
••pen ground, for plants to be trans¬
planted later.
Early kinds of sweet corn should be
planted as soon as the weather will allow,
and followed by we kly plantings.

John McCullough, Henderson Co.,
Ky.—The only certain remedy for the
Culorado Beetle, commonly called the
Potato Bug, is arsenic in the form of
Paris green or London purple—a table¬
spoonful stirred in a pail of water, and
applied in any convenient manner, either
by use of syringe, the watering pot, or
even sprinkling with a whisk-broom.
These poisons are not soluble, and the
mixture must be kept stirred up from the
bottom. Care should be taken to keep
these violent poisons where no accident
can happen to animals or persons.

OCEAN PRIVATEERS.
WIUTHTHE SEW YORK HERALD
HAS TO NAY ABOUT THEM,
The Laws on the Subject as They Exist Be*
tween !>atlens.
A privateer is a vessel owned, armed
and sailed by one or mora individuals
and commissioned by the government to
commit hostile acts on sea against an
enemy during war. It is neither a pri¬
vate vessel nor a public war ship, bnt
holds a position between the two. The
commission is called letters of marque.
The purpose of privateering is to prey
upon the commerce of the enemy. It is
a strong weapon in the hands of a nation
like Russia, with little shipping, against
a Power like Great Britain, with a vast
mercantile marine. The merchant ves¬
sel captnred by the privateer is taken
into port as a prize. It is there decided
by the courts whether the capture was
1( gal and whether either the captnred
vessel or its cargo or both were subject
to seizure. If the decision is in favor of
the captor the condemned property, or
a share of it, goes to the owners of the
privateer. Whether they get the whole
or a part of it, and, if the latter, how
large a part, depends upon the terms of
their letters of marque.
In former times privateering was
eommoD. Every nation at war has an
acknowledged right to resort to it nnless
it has expressly bound itself by treaty or
otherwise not to do so. There has,
however, been a strong, growing inter¬
national sentiment against tbe exercise
of the right. The practice is now gen¬
erally condemned by nations as well as
v .’iters on international law “as liable,”
in the words of Wheaton, “to gross
Abuses, as tending to encourage a spirit
of lawless depredation, and as being in
glaring contradiction to the more miti¬
gated modes of warfare practised by
land.”
By the declaration of Paris made in
1856 privateering is now abolished, on
paper at least, so far ns Europe is con¬
cerned. This declaration has been signed
by about all the European Powers ex¬
cept Spain. It is binding on all the
parties to it. The United States has
never acceded to it, and hence it does
not restrict the right of this country to
commission privateers when we are at
war. Nor does it prevent any Power
which is a party to it from sending out
privateers against onr commerce in case
of war with us.
During the rebellion Congress author¬
ized tbe President to issue letters of
marqne, bnt Mr. Lincoln did not use the
power. Privateers were, however, com
missioned by the Confederacy. The
Revised Statutes make it a crime for any
oitizen of the United States within onr
territory or jurisdiction to accept a pri¬
vateering commission from any finvYgn
Power with which we <s r : at peace.
Both .England and Russia are parties
Ai the Declaration of Paris. Neither,
therefore, can send forth privateers to
prey upon the oonimerce of the other
without violating that agreement. But
solemn compacts made in peace are often
strained, evaded or broken in war.
Russia, for example, has been charged
with repudiating in 1870 the Black Sea
neutrality stipulations of the Paris
Treaty of 1856, made just after the Cri¬
mean war and just before the Declara¬
tion of Paris. Should Russia be tempt¬
ed to resort to privateering in the im¬
pending war there would doubtless be a
strong disposition on the part of England
to treat the privateers as pirates.
The Father in Law of Barrios.
When General Barrios oonoeived the
idea of marrying he marebtd at the head
of his soldiers to a convent in Guatemala
where there was a young and beau¬
tiful girl who hail taken his fancy, and
demanded of the Sisters to give her np.
This was speeitly done, as it was feared
that otherwise he would take her by
force aud destroy the convent This
young girl bad the reputation of befflg
the most beautiful woman in all Guate¬
mala. Barrios carried of his prize and
married her. The father of the cap¬
tured damsel is Don Juan Appartoio,
who is now in this cifv, and who is one
of the wealthiest men of Guatemala,
having untold acres of coffee plantations.
The father at first was extremely angry
at Barrios, but afterward becoming re¬
conciled and generous gave the dictator
a portion of his estate. Tbe father-inr
law of Barrios was called upon lately
by a Chronicle reporter, but no
amount persuasion oonld induce him
of talk on the Central American t-itua
ested tion. He said he had retired from
politics and was only commercially inter¬
in Guatemala. In regard to hi sson-in
law’s plans and his own position on the
question of consolidating the Central
American repnblios, he preferred to re¬
main silent. Don Juan Apparicio is a
tall, handsome man, extremely cour¬
teous in manners and affable in speech,
and the father of fourteen children. He
states that he prefers domestic happi¬
ness to political tnrmoil. His business
in this city is to see to the education of
several of his younger children, his con¬
fidence in the security of Guatemalau
institutions having been, in the case of
Mrs. Barrios, rudely dispelled .—San
Francisco Chronicle.
General Grant’s Cadetship.
Secretary McCrary said that in look¬
ing over the reoord of the West Point
cadets he found that Cadet Ulysses
Simpson Grant had a very narrow chance
for remaining at the academy. “Why,”
said Mr. McCrary, “you would hardly
believe it, but there was a time in his
cadet career when had he onoe more
failed to polish his shoes his number of
demerits would have expelled him from
the academy.” I thought of this, said
General Ingalls, when I heard that,
after welcoming death, he was now gain¬
ing new life, and that after a long career,
marked by most extraordinary events,
his life-long characteristics should be
most conspicuous, even in what was
supposed to be a fatal illness.
By Rail Instead of TraiL
HOW TEXAS IS GOING TO GET ITS CATTLE
NORTH DESPITE QUARANTINE.
The quarantine regulations of Kansas
against the cattle from Texas have brok¬
en up the northern drives into that State,
and to meet the pressing demand for an
outlet for the stock cattle of the Texas
ranches the Fort Worth and Denver
City Railroad is being extended at the
rate of a mile a day beyond Wichita
Falls. This will give transportation for
southern and southwestern Texas cattle
to Harrold,'which is a newly established
town. The cattle designed for the North
will then be driven across the Indian
Territory to the terminus of the St.
Louis, Fort Scott and Wichita Railroad,
where they will be reshipped in cars.
The cattle that are to go to the fattening
ranges in Colorado, Wyoming and Mon¬
tana will be driven along the old Griffin
and Dodge trail, through the neutral
strip just north of the Panhandle coun¬
try and thus they will reach Colorado.
The Texas cattle interests for a time
seemed seriously threatened by the
cattle quarantine, but the railroad has
taken the place of the trail. It is be¬
lieved that this will prove to be a solu¬
tion of a serious difficulty. The North¬
ern cattlemen, who have been influential
enough to secure quarantine legislation,
claim that the Texas herds bring death
and disease to their cattle although pass¬
ing by themielves in excellent condition.
There has been no doubt of this infec¬
tion and its origin, but its cause is a
mystery. The southern Texas cattle
appear to spread the fever worse than
those from the northern ranges. There
is no plague that the Kansas cowmen
dread more than the TexaB fever, and in
crossing a trail on their drives they will
put their cattle on a rnn, despite ail con¬
sequent loss of flesh, until the herd is
beyond the limits of the path of the
Texas herds. It is claimed that when
northern cattle are permitted to graze or
drink where Texas cattle have passed
the fever is certain to appearand to cause
serious losses. This war of interests,
which threatened to become most bitter,
is likely to end with the rail in place of
the trail.
A New Use for Bed-Springs.
A few days ago, after a fire which
partly consumed a dwelling house on
Third street, the owner permitted a
gang of Polacks to carry off a lot of the
damaged furniture. A spring-bed fell
to the lot of an old man. The cover
had been destroyed and several of the coils
were missing, but he accepted the pres¬
ent with every expression of gratitude,
and as he carted it away his fellow
conntry men cast manv aa envious
glauce in his direction
That same afternoon the doner had
ousiness in Poletown, and as he rode
along the Pole to whom he had given
the bed ran out and made motions for
him to come in.
“Bless his old soul! bnt he’s got
lliooa lip UUQ WfllltS tut? to
see what a nice bed he has,” said the
citizen to himself, and he followed the
man around the house.
There was the spring-bed. The man
had built a pig pen and the gift just
made a front for it. The wire coils
were placed on the inside and the occu¬
pant of the pen was matching against
them and squealing with delight.
“Good!” said the Polack, as he
pointed to the pen.
“Y-e-s.”
“Got more?”
“No, my friend, I haven’t. I’ve run
clear out of bed springs, bnt if you’ll
call around to-morrow I’ll hnnt you np
a rocking chair and looking-glass for
your hogpen. Hang a man who’ll sleep
on a pair of $12 bed springs when they
tickle a pig in this fashion !”—Detroit
Free Press.
Ax Ex-Slave's Rank.
Mr. William H. Oliver, of North Car¬
olina, dropped into the White House, at
Washington, with a number of others
simply to pay his respects. As he passed
by Colonel Lamont’sdoor he ri cognized
Arthnr Simmons, the colored messenger
who has stood there for twenty years,
and who is one of the moat popular
attaches of the mansion, as oue of his
former slaves. The recognition between
tbe ex-slave aud ex-master was mutual,
and they had a pleasant chat of old
times. Arthnr is very proud of his
position, aud he mentioned to Mr.
Oliver that he was now the third man in
official rank in the country, which was
something for a North Carolina ex-slave
to be proud of.
“First comes the President,” said
Arthur; “then comes Colonel Lamont
and then Arthnr Simmons.” Arthnr
took special pains to have his former
master presented to both the President
and Colonel Lamont.
As Mr. Oliver was going Arthnr asked
him if ho was after an office; that possi¬
bly he could help him, and that he
would be glad to do so. Mr. Oliver re¬
plied that he did not want anything.
“If there is anything I can do for
yon,” said Arthnr, “order and your
command is law.”
“I’ll take that up,” replied Mr. Oliver
“I want a bouquet from the White
House conservatory to take down to
North Carolina to the lady folks.”
Inside of fifteen minntes he had the
bouquet, with a card “to Mrs. Oliver,
with the compliments of Arthnr Sim¬
mons.”

A few days ago Governor Hughes is¬
sued a pardon for Benjamin F. Taylor,
a young man under sentence for several
years on account of a crime committed
when he was a boy of sixteen, The ex
ercise of the pardoning power is eome
thing which requires the utmost caution
and the most careful consideration. It
is a well known fact that innocent men are
often convioted and sentenced, and it is
also beyond denial that men guilty in the
eyes of the law may yet be deserving of
clemency. This is why the power has
been left in the hands of the Governor,
and it remains with him to discriminate
as to the merits of the scores and hun¬
dreds of prayers for pardon which pour
in upon him. The case of young Taylor
is one which has attracted considerable
attention, and has been watched with no
small degree of interest. His story reads
like a romance. He was led away by
evil associates, and in his seventeenth
year found himself within the walls of
the State Penitentiary with a long term
of imprisonment staring him in the face.
He was a daring little fellow, and before
he had been long in the stripes he made
a bold dash for liberty, evaded the
guards and, taking to the woods, suc¬
ceeded in baffling all pursuit. His in¬
sight into prison life seems to have had
a most salutary effect upon him, for he
made his way into Texas, and under an
assumed name soon became identified
with one of the smaller towns, living an
honest and industrious life. He was
respected by the community, and when
he married one of the belles of the town
every one looked upon it as a most happy
match. He lived thus in peace and se¬
curity several years, but one bright
evening as ho sat by bis fireside with his
children at his knee the officers of the
law came in upon him. His sin had
found him out, and he was torn from his
happy home and carried back in chains
to the Little Rock Penitentiary. Heart¬
broken, his loving wife followed him.
Petitions from leading citizens of his
new home poured in. It was an unusual
ise, and the Governor gave i bis closest
attention. The young man s record at
ihe penitentiary, both before and after
his escape, was commended by the
authorities. At last the decision was
reached, the paper was signed, and the
patient wife received her happy husband,
once more a free man. The Governor
was hiyLiv m mended for the action
on his part, and it was predicted that he
bad been instrumental in restoring to the
world a man wh-p would be an honor to
himself aud his friends, and a living
monument to justice and humanity. The
following letter from the poor fellow
shows his feelings when onee more at
home:—
“I am happy—very happy this morn¬
ing. I am onco more’ at home and a free
man for evermore. How sad I have
been, shut up in your prison there,
away from my family and those whom
I loved so dearly. Once more I am
with that dear loving wife who left her
Tex is home and followed me to the
prison door, never reproaching me, but
striving all the time that 1 might be
freed. A kind Governor was he who
treated her so courteously and viewed
my case so fairly. Never shall he regret
bis clemency and never shall the justice
of his act be doubted. We shall never
forget him, and oar little ones shall learn
to breathe his name in nightly prayer.
Who can doubt that he had most just
ground for bis action ? The offence was
committed years ago by a mere boy,
and most bitterly have the faults of the
youth been repented by the man. Kind
words of advice and admonition he gave
me, and most carefully have I cherished
i hem. Received in my Texas home with
warm-hearted friendship and freely for¬
given; with the memory of the kind sym¬
pathy I received in Little Rock, how
much the more will I strive to live a life
which shall repay it all.

Bricks laid in Blood.
It would seer 1 Uc if there ought to be
some means c\ prevention as well as
punishment for people who persist in
building blocks with bricks laid in a
thin mixture of mud and water and
really in humau blood.
In that lately printed, much talked of
and much overestimated sensational
story, “The Money-Makers,” Million¬
aire Grimstone owns an Academy of
Music in which three hundred men
came suddenly to death. The enter¬
prising Eagle newspaper of the town
“pointed out plainly that the disaster
was due to the defective construction of
the building and that the blame must
be put either on the ignorance of the
architect or the parsimony of the
owner.”
Yet long before, as afterward ap¬
peared in a letter to the Grand Jury,
this architect had protested against the
flimsy materials forced upon him and
had predicted this very disaster. With
this letter before them the Grand Jury
decided that the three hundred mur¬
dered men “lost their lives through the
use of imperfect material and inade¬
quate supports to the flooring, but¬
tresses and walls, and that the respon¬
sible cause of this defective building
was Aaron Grimstone.”
While the boys were shouting the
substance of this verdict under his
window the architect shot himself. Be¬
fore justice could overtake the Million¬
aire Grimstone he, too, disposed of him
self, and the author was so anxious to
make his suicide intensely sensational
that he made Grimstone kill himself in
two totally different ways in two editions
of the same story.
But this is only romance. In real
life the criminals who lay bricks in
blood are sure never to kill themselves,
and it is very seldom that they are
troubled by other people .—New York

On the First of the Month.
The Springfield Republican is the
first paper to commend the change In
the date of issue of the Century. It
says: “The Century Magazine indulges
in a noble luxury—that of restoring
truth to the date of a monthly periodi
cal. The Company announces that the
enormous editions they are now print¬
ing compel them either to go to press at
an earlier date or postpone the day of
issue. They have chosen the latter,
and consequently the May number of
the Century will be issued in May in¬
stead of April, and on the 1st day of
May, as it ought to be. The June num¬
ber will likewise be published June 1,
and every number henceforward will be¬
long to the month whose name it bears.
The magazines entered upon an absurd
chase, some years ago, to see which
should get out earliest, and the result
was that the day of publication got back
as far as the 7th or 8lh day of the month
before that whose name the number was
called by. Of late years they have been
creeping back, until the Century has
been for a long while stayed at the 20th,
and last month got as near as the 25tb
to telling the truth. The edition of
April numbered 225,000 copies; that of
the May number will be 8250,000 copies.
This unprecedented circulation is with¬
out doubt owing to the series of war
articles—by all odds the most fortunate
notion that has ever occurred to an ed
