These run
other, from a
several times
the length of the grain. Another dis-
tinction ia into red and white wheats.
This aeema to depend in aome mea-
sure on the soil; white wheat gra-
dually becomes red on aome stiff, wet
soils; and red wheats become gra-
dually white by continued cultiva-
tion on rich, dry, mellow soils.
Another sad an important division of
the varieties 'M wheats, is into hard
and soft wheats. The, aoft wheats
are chiefly grown in tho cooler cli-
mates, as in England, Belgium, and
the countries bordering the Baltic;
the hard wheats are chiefly the pro-
of the Mediterranean coun-
tries, as Italy, Sicily, Barbery, etc.
Both kinds seem to tie cultivated
with equal somcm in different sec
tiona of the United States.
It would seem, however, from the
practice of the old continent, that the
hard wheats should be best adapted
to the southern and western districts of
Texas. But experience .auat decide.
Whether aeed should be changed, or
the produce of the same land ahonld
continue to be aown, ia atill a moot
point; good sgrienlturiats differ in
their practice in this respect. Though
new lands of great fertility will pro-
duce several crope in unbroken auc-
ceaaion, after the general had fashion of
Southern planting; yet to insure a
permanent good yield there must be
on the same field a rotation of crops,
or manuring, or both. We remem-
ber to have heard a well informed
gentleman atate that the famous
Genesee wheat lands were reduced
several yean ago by straight out
wheat culture, to on average of eight
buahela per acre.
It would be oet of place in thia ar-
ticle to enter Into any minntenem of
dotaD la Nflsoi to the preparation of
yet a few eetahliahed roles, every-
where appBcahie,aaayaoteoeM unim
of our rsndsM who live In
whsat culture ie yet
dally in heavy soils, than excess of
moisture. The wheat field must be
well drained, if not naturally then
artificially. It is not tbe amount of
water in the atmosphere, or that falls
en the Und in the shape of rain, bat
the water that remains stagnant in
the aoil or on its surface, which dam-
ages, and often destructively, the
wheat crop. All our stiff, diluvial
lands, and especially those which
approach to level, require open drains
at least, and would be bettered by
under-draining. If you would make
wheat, keep, your fields dry. Deep
stirring of the aoil and its thorough
pulverisation, are also indispensable
to enable the land to d<> its beat in
wheat. Deep atirring of the aoil is a
security againat both drought and
exeeM of moiature. Wheat on light
mellow soils is advantaged decidedly
by being fed down with sheep. The
sticky, tenacious soils should not be
trodden, especially by heavy stock,
when wet, or so moist as to leave the
indentation of the hoof. There are
several rnles applicable to all good
tillage, which being known to prac-
tical agriculturists need not be
mentioned.
Attorneys' interest in pardons—
what doM it mean t — Gal. Civilian.
Ask Lorenzo Sherwood. Wm. Alex*
ander, and every so-called loyal at-
torney that basked in Hamilton's
smiles while he was Provisional Gov-
ernor, in violation, as Congress says,
of the latiful authority of the na-
tion. A?k every man, "excepting
six," in Houston ami Galveston who
received special amnesty through
Hamilton's indorsement. Ask a dis-
tinguished citizen of 'Galveston, pro-
scribed openly by Himilton, to whom
his indorsement was promised for
$10,000. What doe* it mean ? Simp-
ly and solely that since the break-up
there has been in every go-called
civil department of tbe Federal
Government in Texas an amonnt of
corruption—of open and barefaced
blackmailing, swindling and villainy
that was never before equalled, and
prebably never will be surpassed in
the biatocrof mankind. Thaf a what
it means, and that is why the people
of Texas feel ao aero aboat matters
and thinga in their midst. Many of
these things are on record, and will
be ventilated one of these days. ^
We had tbe pleasure of meeting
our old friend. Capt. P. I. Barziza, of
Fort Bend county, yesterday. The
Captain inform! us that, considering
all the circa instances, tbe crops in his
section of the State look well. If the
freefKnfcn*cnntinde to work asNrell as
they have done so far, a fair crop will
be produced.
As peace becomes more assured in
Europe. 4btton begins to rise, abd the
beneficial effeeta upon trade are be-
ginning to be felt.
