t gorning ;t?r. AGRICULTURAL. : millet. . " I bave been growing millet -with success for a number of yearsj and as I think very highly of it. and believe if. would De more generally cultivated if its good qualities were better known, t hm induced to tea wnat 1 Know about it, hoping thereby4 to ' benefit some other-farmer.- What-1 Bay lsd jLbout the common iimiet; l nave as vet had no experience with the Gey- mail variety". Millet is an anual grass, having a soft stalk with numerous long blades, and a fine, large head tilled with nutritious seeds a little i.irirer than clover seed. It is of rapid .rrowth, and matures in eight or ten weeks from time of seeding.; vhenu cut at tne properume ana well cured, it makes excellent hay-, as nutritious' as timothy or any otner grass, I think, which is eaten greedily by , ,, cattle, ' horses and sheeto. - Is. ; " ... -iux The soil best suited to this grass is ; a ricii, sanay ioain. , in win ao wen on anv rich land not wet or very . stiff, hue it mustbe in good heart or well manured. It should be thoroughly broken with n. two-horse plow, and h.-irrowed fine, and the seed sown and narrowed in. It is best to roll ft, too. but it is not necessary. un good high land, sow half bushel of , seed to the' acre, but on rich bottoms I find three pecks enough. Millet is easily killed by frost,- and should not ba sown until April, af ter frosts have tjeased, and may be sdwn from that time until the 1st of August. By sowing before the middle of May, 1 have frequently made two crops the same year on the same land. For hay it should be cut as soon as it has at tained its full height, while the heads are yet green, when it begins to turn yellow, and ripen,4 it is less valuable, and cattle do not relish it. V: j . On good, light highlands it will yield one or more tons of hay per acre, and on rich low grounds two tons at least. It yields from thirtyitQ, sixty bushels of seed per acre. ; By letting a few acres ripen a supply may be kept up. Millet is preferable to spring oats be cause it does not rust, makes a better growth, and can be sown later,' (even after a crop of winter oats or wheat has been taken off the land). It is better than sowing corn for fodder, because incomes quicker and is much easier to cure. . f I know of no objection to millet, but have heard that some say it is - injuri ous to horses. Too large a feed of the ripe seed might do the same harm that too much of any other very, rich food would do. I think no such ob jection can be raised if it is cut at the .. .proper time. I have been feeding it " 10 horses and mules for several years past, and have never observed any Jjad effects from its use. On the con trary, horses and stock of all kinds, eat it greedily and thrive on it. i' Guy, (Riverside Farm, "Chesterfield county, Va. in fAe Southern Planter vc Farmer. i! , v -s"s The Old JTIau foiie The Lancaster (S. C.) Ledger says that Mr. James Belk, a native and up to the time of his death a resident of Union county, in that State, died at his residence on the 8th inst., at the vrv advanced age of 111 years 5 months and 1 day. The deceased, it 1 will be remembered, .was at tne cen tennial celebration of the Mecklen burg: Declaration of Independence in Charlotte, oh the 20th of May last, and attracted a great deal of attention. The deceased was a relative of Cant. S3. E. Belk, our county treasurer, and it has been stated that 'his descen dants numbered 554. We re-echo the sentiments of : the Lancaster Ledger when it says: "The pilgrimage of the old man was certainly a prolonged one in this 'vale of tears,' and we trust - that his spirit has been wafted to a better country; for surely "during? his long life he had experienced an excess of the sorrows and troubles incident to a journey, through this unfeeling i . . ... .....

The First Volume of St. Nicholas wan a surprise even to the public that had heartily welcomed it, number by number- Newspaper critiea expressed enthusiastic approval; children and 'pa rents were alike de.lghted, and congratulatory let ters from distinguished men and women poured in upon 1 he publishers and editor. Charles Dudley Warner wrote: 1 do not see how it can be made any better, and if children don't like it, it is time to change the kind of children in this country." W hittier, our great poet, wrote : It la little to say of this magazine that it is the best child's periodical in the world;" and words of hearty com mendation came across the ocean from such earnest workeis and popular laverites of the young as Oeo. Macdonald, Christina Uossetti, and Canon Kingsley. Beautifully bound, superbly illustrated, and filled with rood things from the beet writers (including three long serial ttories), the first volume of bt. Nicholas, complete in itself, is a liner Christmas gift for girls and boys to day than any single book iu the market, excepting v - St. Afcliolas for 1875, Which, with its magnificent pictures, its two com plete serials, and its innumerable shorter stories, sketches, poems, fairy tales, rhymes and jingles, bits of wisdom, its French, Uerman and Latin stories its fnn and its puzzles, Jack-in-the-pulpit, the Letter-box, Ac, is even more superbly attrac tive. St. Nicholas for 1874 and 1875, 1 Volumes. . For the convenience or libraries, and because many children find the two large volumes for '71 and '75 rather bulky to handle, we have had theee twenty-four numbers bound in Four Elegant Volumes, and inclosed m a neat box under the general title of ST. NICHOLAS LIBSAEY. These four volumes are fold for fcS being only twodoilais a volume a beautiful and valuable Christmas present for an eutiie fainiiv ot young folks. The New York Tribune says: "In the avalanche of immoral literature that tnreatens the children, some siroug, vitally wholesome, and really attrac tive magazine is required for them, and St. Nicholas reached a h goer platform, and commands for this service wider remiurces in art and letters, than any or its predecessors or contemporaries." The Sunday-School lltnes says: "A. tleaner, purer, more trustworthy periodical for children can not be named. The magazine does not claim tone religions, but it is oa the side of all that is true and good, from beginning to end." The religiou j press all over the country heartily commends Sr. Nicholas, and virtually echoes the opinion of the New York Christian Union, that it is A DELIGHTFUL MAGAZINE FOB ALL UUILDUKX BE TWEEN KIVE AND EIGHTY-SEVEN. St. Nicholas for 1876 PromMcs even greater attractions than the previous volumes A strong leatuxe or the new volume is an Americas Serial Mory, " The Boy Emigrants," by Noah Brooks, Giving the adventures ot a party of boys on their long journey acrobS the plaius, with a vivid por traiture m mar Life in California BimiXQ TUE DAYS OF TUE O OLD-EE FEB. Mr. Brooks brings to this work, in addition to his well-known literary girts, a thorough familiarity with the featnres of that wild country and the peo ple then flocking toward it. What he baa to say of them is pervaded with a subtle and intense savor of reality that enables the reader to follow the charac ters in their adventures with a positive ' sense of. companionship. 3 he contagion of the- "gold fever;" the great diniculties and ierils which be leaguered their-journey across the plains and moun tains, and finally the adventurous, half -civilized. and yet, in a certain rode way, poetic life in the mines cr California, are all aescniea witn wonaer- f ul truthfulness and skill.

'. ..- -.E IQHTH YE AS T II E ALDINE, THE AET J0TJENAL OF AMEEIOA, . Issued Monthly. ' A Magnificent Conception, wonder fully carried out: - s , The necessity of a popular medium for the repre aentation cf tne productions of onr great artists, has always been recognized, and many attempts have been made to meet the want. The successive failures which bo invariably followed each attempt in this country to establish an art journal, did not prove the indifference of the people of America to the claims of high art. So soon as a- proper 1 ap preciation of the want and an ability to meet it were shown, the public at once rallied with enthusiasm to its support, and the result was a great artistic and commercial tiiumph-r-THJfi ALD1NE. THE ALDINE, while issued with all the regu larity, has none of the temporary or Umely interest characteristic of ordinary periodicals. It is an ele gant miscellany of pure, light,, and graceful litera ture; and a collection of pictures, the rarest speci mens of artistic skill,' in black and- white. Al though each succeeding number ' affords a - fresh pleasure to its fru'nds, the real value and beauty ef THE ALDINE will be most appreciated after it is bound up at the close of the year. While other publications may claim superior cheapness, as com pared with rivals of a similar class, THE ALDINE is a a unique and original conception alone and anapproached absolnteiy without competition in price or character. The possessor of a complete volume can not oh plicate the quantity of fine paper and engravings in engravings in any otner snape or numser or volumes for ten times Us cost; and, there is the chrome, besides ' ; - The national feature of THE ALDINE must be taken in no narrow sense. True art is cosmopoli tan. While THE ALDINE is a strictly American institution, it dots not confine itself entirely to the reproduction of native art. Its mission is to culti- jy vate a bread and appreciative art taste, one that win aiscruninate only on grounds of intrinsic; ,5 merit. Thus, while placing before the patrons otj Ttm ALDINE, as a leading characteristic, the pr ductions of the most noted American artists, atteai tion will always be given to specimens from foreign masters, giving subscribers all the pleasure and fa atruction obtainable from home or foreign sources. The artistic illustration of American ' scenery, original with THE ALDINE, is an importanVtea-. tme, and its magnificent plates are ef a size more appropriate to the satisfactory treatment of details than can be afforded by any inferior page. The Judicious interapersion oil landscape, marine, figure, and animal subjects, sustain an unabated interest, impossible where the scope of the work confines the artist too closely to a single style of Subject The literature of THE ALDINE is a light and grace ful accompaniment, worthy of the artisticJeatures with only such technical disquisitions asflo not in tcrf ere with the popular interest of the work.
