FARMERS COLUMN. Blue Gi'a>. A correspondent of the lowa Live Stock Gazette saj's, that it is a fact that many varieties of seed loose their vitality but a short time in a dry state. By cutting and sowiug as soon as . cut, it will generally prove successful where it is sown on land that has been well tramped by cattle, and the vegetation mostly I killed out. Sawingon old pastures j where the cultivated grasses have been partially killed out, is a very good plan for starting blue grass. Sowing on the ground with no cov ering is the most natural as weli as most successful plau with all kinds of grass seed. Space in Pluming Corn. There is more or less disagree ment as to the distance corn should be planted apart, and the number of stalks in a hill. Good crops are real- j ized from three and a half feet plan ting, three to lour stalks in a hill. Better have been grown, as I have! witnessed, with the rows four feet j apart, including the hills(w!neh' makes the space between the hills about three and a half ieet,)wilh three to four stalks in the hill, the difference in this case being mainly in the greater number of ears grown, usually two to a stalk, atul j large at that, the larger space be tween the hills giving chance for the sun and air to circulate. I have ] also witnessed a growth of corn where the space between them was but half that last mentioned. It was on soil which for several years had grown large crops of carrots, and was specially favorable to corn, being black, highly manured and deeply rich, a well-drained alluvial deposit. There resulted an im mense growth of stalks, but no coin, although it was the intention of the owner, coufulcutly expressed, to raise an unusually superior crop. It was a failure, save in the amount of fodder it made. In that it. paid, so great was the growth. We want the sun and fresh air in our corn as in our fruit trees. That re sult being secured, we can plant as closo as we please.—Country Gentle man., ~ A Breeding Mule. The greatest curiosity at the fa mous acclimatizing garden in the Bois de Boulone, near Paris, is a mule that drops a foal every year. The Chasse Illustrce publishes an t excellent likeness of the mule, her two colts and their sire, an African i barb. The mother is an arabian ' mule, admirably formed and gray in color. The sire of her colts is a light bay, with a star.—The first colt, a filly, now nineteen months old, was foaled at Orlcansville, Al geria, on the 23d of April, IST3. ' The period of gestation was ten j months and twenty-three days. Her next, also a filly, was foaled at Par is, April 23, 1874. The period of gestation was eleven months and nineteen days. The same mule is now in foal to the handsome white jack so much admired at the Gar den of Plants. The two fillies, both iron-gray, with stars, are much more like the sire than the dame. A fertile breed of mules may be ! developed like the fertile hybird be tween the American buffalo of the plains and our common European cattle. This cross is valueless; hut if all female mules would raise colts the advantage would be worth mill, ions to the farming interest.—Ex. - T , THE WAUXAHATCHIE MUR DERERS. A SegroDclCi'livc Works *sp the Case. [From th Romo Commercial.] The terrible mishap at the Waux ahatchie bridge on the Selma road is still fresh in the minds of our read ers. It was the giving way of the | bridge, some months ago, with a j train of passenger cars upon it, and the sudden,horrible hurling into eter nity of many who were On board, and the terrible mangling of those who were not killed outright iu the crash. As our readers recall all the harrowing, sickening circumstan ces of that shocking calamity, they will be extremely glad to know that the authors of all the fatal wreck ing of the train that night at the Wauxahatchie bridge have been de tected and captured. Suspicion was first fixed upon one of them who resided at Colum biana, near the bridge, by ld.s being . present at the scene cf the calamity j almost simultaneously with its oc currence; atul also by his having previously manifested dissatisfac tion with the small damages paid him for the killing, by the train, of a mare and colt which belonged to him. This was all the circum stantial evidence there was. so far as we beard, upon which to found any suspicion. A negro detective, whose name we did not learn, from Montgomery, worked up the case. It was done in the following irsan urr: This negro detective, by a prear- j rangement, got on the Sclam train and traveled so far as Columbiana. | Here the conductor put him off the! train, professedly because he could not pay his fare any further. The j negro now affected to be very in dig-1 limit with the road aed all the j officials, asserting that the funner j ought to be torn up and the latter j all killed—taking p ans to act this i character cut- very strongly in the j presence of the suspiciontd parties, ] with whom lie throw him; If as I much as possible. All this lime he was peddling <4l“ goods which, be ccr.ficutially told these suspected; persons with whom he had now grown intimate, he had stolen from a err- j tain place where they might replen ish their stock, as it should bocor-.c necessary. They entered fully into i all of his plans. All this time our j colored detective never let an op.-1 portunity slip for abusing the Salma i road. Finally one of these suspicion- j ed parties i 1 reciprocation of all this confidential abuse, unburdened I his soul and confided to the colored j detective the terrible secret of hav-; ing thrown the train from off the Wauxahatchie l ridge. Thus hav ing them in the nci-, the strings were drawn and three of the railroad ; murderers were arrested a few days ago. There is a fourth one who is ! still at large. Of tho three arrested, one is a j negro. This negro has shown the j place where the bolts have been hid, which were drawn from the bridge j on the fatal night on which it gave way in the terrible wreck. He has i also fully confessed as to the au thors of the diabolical Work. !.TiTE*SE’.V,i. —Thomson is feasting on cutfi h. i —Pneumonia is prevalent iu Alba j uy —Albany claims twelve bun- ! dred Isrealitcs. —A horse-thief named Rawlings was arrested in Fort Valley tin, | other day.
