Agricultural and Domestic.

(From Ammu< i n ] Hot ibuf bet likmed" to vegetable growth, ami “each particular hair” to a plant, the skiiiabeihg the soil from which it ilenvea its mi! stance. A linir is a hollow tube containing hftWQlavit; Y an oil which gives it color. The only comlitiohs flSfelWry fin* its perfect and Iqx-uriant groivt h, is that t he aoi 1 lie good ami the growth of the crop be kept, unmolested by untoward (ircyinstances. If tlie evil is bad or lias boon deteriouted by disease, it must lie renovated before good crops can reasonbly be c.xj>ected; but you might as well e.\j>ect to improve the quality of faiid by „ J cartiiig stones upon it, as to renorate the scalp by the use of ’oils and pomatums. These compounds contain nothing to uourUh the bair while they obstruct the action of the skin, upon the henlthy condition of which, more thau anything else, a full luxurieiit growth of hair dejieuds. The loirst harmfjtl of oils, if any mast be resorted, to,.its fCfhtov ail diluted—wilk two parts alcohol and scented to suit.the taste: but even this fthould be sparingly used. A good healthy head of hair should supply its own oil. A preparation of alcohol ouc pint, pure glyceriu two ounces, and water one half pint, scented with rose geranium, lemon grass, or any other essential oil suitable for the purpose, is an adn ir able dressing forjthe hair, and one that exerts a healthful.. influence upon the skin. A solution of borax is better for cleansing the hair than the bicarbonate of potash in common use by hair dressers for the purpose. The latter may be used to advantage, however, in warm weather, when acidity "s apt to be generated by perspiretain. Either of these will be i * rarely required if the hair and scal|> ora Washed every morning in pili’e water, which is not only a great benefit to the hair, but the very best preventive of eoids id the liend. After such ablution the hair should be wiped nearly dry and then 1»,«* Mwitnrp. «G^d winds before the hair is well not advisable. JUtfother excellent detergefit forthg scalp is the white of egg. Two eggs will be sufficient for a cleansing of the hair, as ordinarily worn by men, but women who wear their hair as long as it will grow, will need four or more. The yolks should dse«*refdlly~removed, and the albuminous portion rubbed into the - roots of the hair very thoroughly for some time, when a thorough rinsing with water and drying with towels will leave the hair a beautiful luster and silky softness. Fine tooth; ecbppmbs are only to be toleratefl'tmder conditions which are happily rare in this country, and therefore unnecessary to mention. Brushing is good if not carried so far as to irritate the skin. * {trafting thk Cherry .-Few persons succeed in grafting the cherry, simply because they defer the operation until too late in the season. The scions should Ik> cut early in winter, but the present time will do; pack them in damp moss or pulverized charcoal, and then place them in a cool cellar until wanted for use. Select the strong, well-ripened one year old shoots for scions, as weak small wood is of little value. The cherry should be the first tree grafted in the spriug. Do ijot ,wa>t for the buds to swell l»ut insert the scions as soon as the frost is out of the ground, and if 4 «°ld snap should come after the trees are grafted, there will he little danger of injury. Excellent Horse Lina went.— -The American Stock Journal gives the following recipe: Take one pipt of alcohol, ||mM6 of caetolenoap, iounce ■fjgfe.mpWJ onnee of mlammoniac. Whep. these are of hrodaUOl^olnauaceoriganum, jounce of sassafras, and 2 ounces spiritiof h#rtshom., Bathe freely.

A v vnimK ,Ymartur IyptAy Corn.— Nrnv Jersey lends off with an average of 43 bushels [per acre; mo follows close with an average of 38; Kansas, 34; Massachusetts, 34; Maine, j&V, Michigan, 3i£ Illinois, 31. j In the Souther States the average declines rapidly—Louisij aua giving 17’per acre; Alaj Hama. 9; Georgia and South | Catalina, 0. We take this t*sitmate from a Western authority, for whose accuracy wc cannot vouch. The average for [ the whole country is 25. We plant three times too much surface, for, with proper ploughing and manuring, anv acre fit to l>e broken with a plough should be made to yield 75 bushels.

The Wheat Export.— Calij fornia now stands at the head j as a source of our wheat supply, 1 Minnesota second, and Wisconsin third. Ten years ago, Ohio gave a surplus of ten million bushels; now she requires several million bushels from Illinois, Wisconsin, and Michigan, ti> supply her home demand. Illinois will soon be importing wheat. Pennsylvania keeps up her wheat producing power as well as an)- State; her acreage has declined very little for twenty years. The farmers there use lime for clover, and sow wheat on the clover-sod. iTiik Profits on Si oak. —Few ! are aware of the marvelous i profits that have been made and 1 can be realized from sugar in | Louisiana and Florida. In St. j Landry Parish last year, twelve hands cose a planter about $3,500 in waiioH and meat. On 90 aci’es they made nearly 200 jliogsheads of sugar, and 275 barrels of molasses, which to--1 gether sold for over $30,000. j After deducting all expense*, 1 the planter’s net profit must | have been very large. —The ramie is of the thistle family, is propagated easily bv cuttings; requires comparatively little carq, is perennial, yields three or four crops a year at the rate of 3,000 pounds per acre, and is worth .£55 sterling per tun. The threads are longer and more silky than cotton, and mixed with cotton or woolen produces a beautiful fabric, and, alone, e enables the silks of Lyons. - -It is only within the last few years that man has’succeeded in niakiugpaperoutof wood, and even now the process is not practically a successful one. Yet the hornets—-those “natural paper makers from the be- | gining of time,” as Harris feI licitously called them—have I been making a kind of tough, 1 gray waterproof paper out of j wood every summer from the most remote nutiquity. i —A French chemist has invented a new w ay of preparing glass for mirrors. It is coated w ith an exceedingly thin coat of platinum, and becomes misteriously, not only a perfect mirror, but also remains so transparent that it may still be used'for windows. —The Xeic-England Fanner says that in the bauds of careful and patient persons, experi- ! ments the past year have satis- ! fied many that benes are an j j exceedingly valuable stimulent | of vegetable life and ought to lie preserved and prepared for use on the soil.

—To prevent lamp chimneys from breaking by sudden contact with the heat, the best way js to cut or scratch the base of glass with a glazier’s diamond, j Another method is to put the ■ glasses in water and boil them. —The Jonesboro (Illinois) ! Gazette says: The prospects in ! this, the largest, peach growing j county in the State, were never! better. — — —By putting borax info the cold water in which flannels are to be washed, shrinkage may be effectually prevented. —More than 12,000 elephants are slaughtered anuual-]

Tho democratic part)', though beaten in the late contest, came out of tho trial with greater numerical strength than it had ever contained, and with a spirit not less dauntless than would have animated it had it beon successful. It proved, again, in this event; us it had proved in tho event of many past reverses, that it bus vitality which no reverse c»n impair, and which, indeed, grows greater as the work it has to do increases in magnitude. Looking at its vitality, and at the nuture of its work, and at the discordant ar.d destructible elements of the party opposing it, nothing is more certain in tho future than its early roturu to power. It will bcthisrosult that shall reward every democrat who has watched, and waited, and prayod, and romuiued faithful, in all the dark days of the past. Tub CmcAOo Times will aid in the attainment of this result with all the power it possesses, iu the belief that tt is absolutely essential to the recovery of those rights and liberties of - which tho states have beon despoiled, and to the arrest of that drifting toward centralization, which, if not stayed, will redueo state’ lines to tho same consequence as tho lines of counties and towns, and establish a despotism at Wa,sb-, ington all-pervading and mote hateful than any oligarchy of Europe. Tho states must again manage their domestic affairs in their own way, subject only to the constitution of the United Statos. Those whictr

wtUiL nogro suffrage must have it, and those which do not want it must not have it imposed on them by any oxterna! power. Anti so of every other domestic concern. Nor will there be return to an honest administration of the government, nor will tbe public debt bo put in the way of just and equitable payment, the public credit be re-estabiished. and taxation be reduced to tolerable proportions, until democratic whidttm and integrity shall once more prevail. The WEEKLY EDITION OF THE TIMES, in all respects a democratic journal, faithful to democratic principles, and earnest in the advocacy of democratic measures, commends itself to tho patronage of earnest democrats and to circulation as a perpetual campaign paper. In its -other features, Tra domestic, foreign, hnd commercial intelligence, literature, gossip, &e., Ac., it is not surpassed in excellence by any weekly publication. Its whole character is comprehensively stated in saying that it is a great democratic and familyjnewspaper. To every farmer, its market intelligence alone is worth many times tho price of stibBcriptiaa j -

There is ss much taleut, enterprise std in dustry now employed on Western Newspaper ns in any part of the United Slates. The Tele graphio News from all l-arte of the WorW 4spulilished simultaneously in Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Chicago, and the Eastern Cities, and la laid before the readorsof the Joubnal from 03ETO TWO DAYS EARLIER than it can i each them by papers published in other ritics. j-eceivea are worth having, and ihe same ia published* in the Weekly in a condensed form. It can not- be necessary, at this day, to particularize lire merits upon which tho Jocrnal rests its claims to a continuance and extension of the abundant patronage it has so long enjoyed. The patronage ia itself the best evidence or its merits. A newspaper must be worth to a reader what he pays for it, or he will not have it. It la in no respect different from any other article. It Buppllos a want, and ia worth more or leas as it supplies the want mote or less completely. If it Is good, it needs little other solicitation of patronage than do good groceries or diy goods. The Journal has Kept steadily in view the purpose of making itself indispensable to its readers, by furnishing them the Dews in the rapst convenient form, and of the most authentic character, and of the greatest variety. It has maintained a stats of Editors of Acknowledged AMI II) and Experience, It baa systematically dispatched reporters to describe for its columns all occur re teas, political and otherwise, of general inUrest. It aaa incurred very great expense In, securing apecial' telegraphic dispatches. It bw labored without counting cost or time to make ltseli as nearly us possible a Complete Daily and Weeßly Record of the Affairs of the Country. By these moans it Las given its rcadors the full worth ot their money. Its proprietors ask Bupport for it beoaus* they ask no mere than they are side to give a full and satisfactory equivalent for. They ask nothing on account of party preferences, or looul advantages. A paper that begs the help of its party because of its partisan character is apt to nave, little else to recommend it. The Jo v real aims to secure patronage by being WORTH ITS PRICE TO ANY MAN of any party. It is Republican in its Poliical Views, and its conductors see no reason to think that it will ever be anything elae, but it* columns will contain all of th* Departments ustt-lly in- , eluded in first : clasi newspapers, inoludlng ■ POLITICAL, FINANCIAL, | (;OM MERCIA I, AGRICULTURAL, !

Tho circulatlon.it has attained, fir in advance ol any paper ever publiabed in the State, and surpassed by very few in the Northwest, ia proof that its efforts bave neither been misdirected nor unappreciated. What it has been it will continue to be Improving by experience, by a more enlarged acquaintance with tho needs _of tba public. BDd by increased means of carrying out its designs.
