July 1, SOO-tf FAVETTEVILLE, N. C. The Cultivation of the Cabbage. We have frequently heard persons say that they did not believe that as good cabbages could be raised in North Carolina as are raised in the States north of it, but this is a great mistake, and we speak from experience. Some say that though thejT may grow as . well, yet they will not head so well. Thiserror is caused like most others into which our farmers and gardeners in this State have fallen. It proceeds from inat tention to proper preparation of aud manuring of the land which is designed for their growth. W-ediarc'fouBd'it to be the case that the gardens as well as the fields of the Old "North State have generally only been skinned over instead of being broken deep. The cabbage requires a deeply disintegrated soil for its luxuriant growth and the plants should not be nearer each other than three feet if it is desired that a well-formed head should be had. The cabbage, like most other broad leaved plants, derives from the atmosphere most of the organic matter requisite for its growth, and it obtains from the subsoil many of the mineral elements which are easily obtained when the ground is broken deep. A most excellent manure for the cabbage is a mixture of wood ashes, lime, the dropings from the chicken house, and plaster, in equal proportions, with the exception of the plaster onlj-, a small quantity of which is required. Another excellent manure for this, as well as all vegetables, is the compost made near the kitchen, which is generally composed of mould, the refuse vegetables, the fragments, and washings of meat, aud the soap suds ued in washing clothes. It should no longer be the case that the towns of North Carolina, are supplied with cabbages from the gardens of other States, when we can with proper attention, make as good here at home as we can Journal. from other markets. Farmer's A novel case was decided at Cincinnati last week, which claims the attention of banking institutions and money dealers. Elis aud Mor ton, baukers at Cincinnati, paid a forged cheek on themselves for $7000, presented through ai.d iu the first instance paid by the Ohio Life and Trust Co. who had cashed it at the request of a stranger. On discovering the fraud, after the lapse of a few days, E. and M. Claimed of the Trust Co. repayment ofthe amount paid to that Co. which was refused. On trial before the Superior Court at Cincinnati last week, the facts in the case were admitted, and tire Court (Storer, presiding) decided that they did not entitle the plaintill's (E. andM.) to a recovery. A nonsuit was accordingly granted.- Ihc ground mainly taken was that the plaintiffs (E. and M.) did not use due caution in the payment of the cliecK ; buniaving paltlTt," tliey thereby" certiUert its validity, and thus secured the forger from arrest. The reporter of the. San Francisco News furnishes that paper with the following report of a speech made by a California Auctioneer: "Ladies and gentlemen, 1 now have the hon or of putting up a line pocket handkerchief; a yard wide, a yard long, and almost a yard thick; one half cotton, and t other halt cotton, too; beautifully printed with stars and stripes on one side, aud the stripes and stars on t'other; it will wipe dust from the eyes so completely as to be death to demagogues, aud make politics as bad a business as printing papers; its great length, breadth and thickness, together with its dark color will enable it to hide dirt, and never need washing; going at one dollar? seventy live cents? fifty cents? twenty-five cents? one bit? Nobody wants it? Oh! thank you, sir? "Next, ladies and gentlemen, I offer three pair socks, hose, stockings or half hose, just as I you've a jnind to call them. Jvnit by a machine made on purpose, out of cotton wool ; the man that buys these will be enabled to walk till he gets tired; and, provided his boots are high enough, need'ut have any corns; the legs are as long as bills against the corporation, and as thick as the heads of the members of the Legis lature; who wants 'em at one half dollar? thank-ee, madam, dollar? Next, I offer you a pair of boots; made es pecially for San Francisco; with heels long enough to raise a man up to the lloadley grades, and nails to insure against being carried over by a land slide; legs wide enough to carry two revolvers and a bowie knife, and the uppers of the very best horse leather. A man in these boots can move about as easy as the State Capi tal; who says twenty dollars? All the tax payers ought to buy a pair, to ki k the council with; everybody ought to have a pair to kick the Legislature with and they will be found of assistance in kicking the bucket; especially if somebody should kick at beintr kicked ten dollars for legs, uppers and soles! while souls, and miserable souls, at that, are bringing twenty thousand dollars in Sacramento! ten dollars! ten dollars! gone at ten dollars! "Next is something that you ought to have, gentlemen; a lot of good gallowses, sometimes called suspenders. I know that some of you will after awhile be furnished at the State's ex pense, but you can't tell which one, so buy where they're cheap; all that deserve hanging are not supplied with a gallows, if so there would be nobody to make laws, condemn crim inals, or hang culprits, until a new election; made of pure gum elastic stretch like a jndge's conscience, and last as long as a California office-holder will steal ; buckles of pure iron, and warranted to hold so .tight that no man's wife can rob him of the breecljes; are, in short, as strong, as good, as perfect, as effectual, and as bona fide as the ordinance against t hin Comfortable Incomes.
