This salt was obtained at §: per ton, in Alexandria. The colts, cattle, bay, and grain received complimentary mention. GENERAL B. B. Law. Col. Curtiss spoke of the iety of peti- tioning the legisiature in of & general railroad law, as a protection against the insuf- ferable extortious of monop com which the farmer is the chief sufferer. Se¥eral mem- bers complained of the Baltimore and Potom| railroad and the Orange, Alexandria and Ma- asses railroad demandi tortionate fares. and the charge of 50 cents between Washington and Alexandria was agreed to be particularly obnoxious, and would, if not discontinued, bo made the grounds of a test case. KEW STRAMDOAT. Dr. Howland said that the question had been sgitated of putting @ new light-draught steam boat upon the river that could touch at ar landing, and accommodate the whole river country from Occoquan to Washington. Sach @ steamboat, drawing bat 20 inches, stern Wheel, and capable of speed of 1: to 29 mites au hour, could be built at Alexandria, and finished for $20,000, including @ reserve Taud He said that if ‘the members of the clab would move in the matter, the sum could easily be raised. $5,000 has been promised siready by the movers of the project. It was determined to give the matter a favorable consideration. FARM IMPLEMENTS came next under discusion. E. E. Mason thought the farmers were badly used by the manufacturers. | Things were poorly made. vagon poles askew, wheels loose, reapers de- fective, and tool handies of siant-grained wood He thought the makers should be held respon sible. One of the members thought a good deal lar inthe user. Tools were neglected; left in sun and rain, and soon for want of paiat and care they dropt to pieces. He recommended the use of petroleum and coal tar. Dr. Howland said that gum shellac, dissolved in alcohol, was good to mix with coal tar to make a good dry- ing, glossy, and serviceable paint. Some one here suggested Woodiawn school house would be improved with a coat of whitewash. The idea was well received, and called forth « discussion as to whether a school house was « farm implement. A sub-soil plow was recom- mended ss the best road-breal It acts asa pick pulled by horse-power. The report of the committee on plows was postponed for another trial. ish GUANO—INTBRESTING LEOTU Some time since Dr. Howland purcha-od the North some 4) tons of pressed fish for the club, at $20 per ton, delivered at Alex: Dr. Howiand said that perha) best w: use it was to reduce it to a su; hate by the perhosp! use of sulphuric acid.
