FARM WORK FOR JUNE. ‘From the Meryland Farmer. This is the busy month for farmers—grass and weeds grow faster than crops and require exter- mination. The small grain crops are to be har- vested, clover hay to be made, corn and tobacco and cotton erops are demanding attention, be- sides a inultiplicity of smaller matters that can- not be neglected. Some of these many duties We shall now recall by way of suggestion to you. | cons.

In a word, heavy manuring and pertect cultivation before being planted. TOBACCO. The bulk of tobacco planting should be done this month. We ask your serious consideration of what the Maryland Farmer has said hereto- | fore about this valuable erop and especially to Teflect upon its long advocacy of planting less area and trying to make one acre produce more | weizht and of higher value than three acres have produced under the old system. HARVESTING AND HARVEST IMPLEMENTS. Harvest depends on the season and locality. It usualiy begins in this section about the last | Week of this month. Whenever it does begin j the first consideration should be-that the field | force is commensurate with the work to be done. | A few days lost may entail many additional days of labor. This force has been greatly reduced of | late years by the ingenuity of mechanics who have introduced those iminersely saving of labor machines, such as the reaper and binder com- bined, reapin: and binding easily 12 aeres per day. But whether the old eradie, the simple Feaper. or the reaper and binder be used, it Is ecouomy to have all harvest tools and machines Of the very best quality and kind in use. It has lon been settled that the best time for cutting Wheat is when the straw below the ear begins to turn yellow, and when the kernel is in the dough | State. tix Is Just about ten or fourteen days be- fore the wheac is fully ripe and the kernels hard and dry.» If the wheat is ripe. much is lost by the grain shattering, and a dead loss of 15 or lore per cent. on the flour of an equal measure @f grain. CLOVER FoR HAY. Cut clover for hay, when about half the blos- foms are commencing to turn browa LATE POTATOES.

Dip the roots in this mixture which will preserve the plants from wilting, and also from the ravages of the cut worm and the fly. Peas.—Continue to sow peas, but at this season choose a shady. part of the , Saw @ few drills at intervals of two wi , for succession ; water the drills when planting. Melons and Cantaloupes—Keep these clean and well watered throughout ‘Cauliflower and Broccoli.—Treat these, In setting out, in the manner prescribed for transplanting . The bed where they are to stand to mature, should be enriched by a heavy dressing of cow and horse manure, well Fotted and dug in almost half, a spade deep, and thoroughly incorporated with the soil. Frequent waterings after sunset of an evening are abso- Intely necessary in dry weather. Sowing the Seed of Cauliflower and Broccoli.— Sow seeds of these in warm, open borders, any time during this month for a fall supply. Beans.—Plant bunch beans at intervals of two weeks for succession. Choose for this purpose a ool, shady border, and water occasionally. Lettuce.—Transplant lettuce for lesser BH Small Salading.—Every week, sow a of small salacing to keep up a constant supply. Radishes.—Thin out the young radishes to 3 inches apart, and sow fresh seeds of the summer kinds, at intervals ot ten days. The white turnip radish is to be vreferred. Spinach.—Drill in a few rows of epinach every ten days. The ground cannot be made too rich for this healthy and desirable vegetable. Carrots and Parsnips.—These should have been seeded a month ago, but if @ farther supply is needed, or seeding has been delayed, they may be drilled in at any time previous to the 10th of the month. Sowing Cabbage Seed.—Prepare a bed for cab- bage seed, chiefly Flat Dutch and Savoy, to be transplanted hereafter for winter use. Cymlings and Cucumbers.—Hoe them well and | keep them free from weeds. ;, Lima and Carolina Beans,—See that these are | kept clean and poled, and draw occasionally a | fresh supply of earth about their roots. Beets, Parsnips and Carrots.—All these roots new require attention; keep the earth loose weather do not spare the water, but do not ap- ply it until after sunset. Fary Turnips.—Sow a bed of turnips late in the month for early use. | Salsify or Vegetable Oyster.—Keep this excel- | lent root free of weeds, and stir the soil about it freely and often. And do not let its growth be checked for want of water. Onions.—Work these occasionally, keeping the soil loose about the bulbs but not covering them. | Okra or Gumbo.—Thin ont the plants where they stand too closely together, to eight inches | apart. and earth up. Tomatoes, Egg Plants.—Transplant these, if | not set out before during the early part of this | month. Red Peppers.—Set them out from the seed bed, work the young plants occasionally and give them a good supply of water in dry weather. Endives.—Set out plants for the seed bed and sow additional seed for a late crop. Late Roasting Ears,—Plant a few ears of corn for late roasting ears. Pot and Medicinal Herbs.—Prick out from the seed bed such plants as are large enough to re- move during nioist or cloudy weather, and shade for a few days until the young plants have taken root. Peach Trees.—Examine the roots of peach trees a few inches below the surtace of the ground. If gum exudes, the worm is nly t work under the bark—take a pen-knife an cut it out by following its course, or follow it cp with a piece of wire or coarse knitting needle. Do not desist until it is found and destroyed. Throw wood ashes around the roots and cover all up again. ——— ‘The Fearful Crime of the Malleys. ‘From the Chicago Inter-Ocean. If the Malley boys could be hang on “general principles” without violating the rules of law, it would be a wholesome thing todo. There area multitude of “fast” young men that dress in good clothes, and ogle and smirk and smile and sneer at virtue, who should take a lesson and turn aside from imitating the Malleys, whether they hang or not. The most despicable charac- ter who walks the earth to-day is the young man who dishonors his mother and deties his Creator in his efforts to debauch and degrade women, The man who d led and ruined Jennie Cramer was as much a murderer as he who administered the fatal arsenic. | Meine Zeit, Mein Leben—Pulazky.

The generous concep- tion could thus be made to include peoples and districts which for centuries had been politically severed from the empire. But the test was still German, for not even the poet ventured to claim the entire Teutonic group of tongues and peo- ples—England, America, Holland, Denmark, Sweden—and the statesmanship of the age was far less audacious than its poetry. Pan-slavism | is therefore a more ambitious idea than Arndt’s fatherland. Instead of being only the dream of & poet. it is the aim of serious practical states- nen, or at least an impulse which they are willing to farther and utilize. Instead of halt- ing at the froutiers of the Russian language it reaches out into Prussia and Austria and Tur- | key, and embraces all men, whatever thelr po- | litical relations, whose idiom identifies them with | the great Slavonie race. The Servians, the Bul- garians, the Bosnians, the Montesrins, the Dal- | matians, the Croats, the Poles of Warsaw, of | Posen, ot Galicia, the Czechs of Bohemia—these all form part of the future Slav commonwealth. | All are brothers, and owe one another the kindly offices of the fraternal! relation. In this novel domestic scheme the czar him- self has the part of Great, or rather, as the Slavs say, “‘Little Father.” Yet lavism | stops apparently short of the idea of a close | political union under asingle scepter, or even ) of a conf mn, a8 Germans, or Swiss, or | Americans understand the term, and aims only at a species of alliance with Russia as patron and protector. But in this qualified form the idea hag a powerful hold on the imagination of the Russian peoples. Russians may be nihilists or loyalists, radicals, liberals or conservatives, editors or lawyers, plebeians or aristocrats, may ; bave any opinion in \ Seas or any status in | society: if they can only read and think and dream, they are nearly certain to be pan-Slavists, and to defend the cause with ingenuous fervor to every patient listener. At the clubs noisy patriots will declaim on the subject by the hour. In the salons fair ladies insinuate it | upon you, with all the art of the sex, as they | hand you your glass of tea. The stranger whom one meets in the train, or at the table d’hote, or at the picture galley, is likely not only to be a champion of pan-Slavism, it to discuss its virtues with an enthusiasm and a naivete which take no account of one’s foreign birth and pos- sible lack of interest in the cause. Gen. Skobe- lef was therefore perfectly justified in | ing, as he did on his return from Paris, that he | had only announced sentiments which in Russia | every one holds and avows. No one can, indeed, be more surprised than the gallant General himself at the political im- | {pipe into which he has suddenly sprang. | Like every educated man or woman in Russia, | he is something of a politician. His opinions are well known, and he has often expressed them { with a frankness which, even in this country, | pubite opinion and the ‘etiquette of thelr Bro. ot the army. there was no special reason why Gen.

WLS Washington, May Bth. A PRAIRIE ANTI-MONOPOLIST. How Patrick Shannahan Defended His Demesne Against a Railroad. The encroachment of a huge monopoly was recently valiantly resisted, not by political strat- egy, but by a Winchester rifie and a “‘navy six” at Vinita, Indian Territory. ‘‘Vinita” (named for Vinnie Ream, the artist) isa town of a dozen store-houses or so, at the junction of the St. Louis and San Francisco and the Missouri, Kan“ sas and Texas railroads, in the Indian Territory’ and the late terminus of the latter. The broad gently undulating prairie stretches around at this season like a green sea, flecked with the light and shade of the cloud shadows and softly reflected sunlight, and dotted with herds of bright-colored cattle, with here and there a cowboy riding slowly around the feeding circles. The horizon is almost as wide as that of the sea, and the whole landscape wears a softly radiant glow. The small blue and yellow prairie-flowers | aredn bloom, much finer and more delicate than about them, weed them thoronghly, and in dry the later growth, and choruses of bobolinks balancing on the taller stems, and a thousand other birds, make vocal this emeral sea. North and south and due east stretch the double lines of the railroads until they come to converging points In the far distance. To the west extends the dark earth of the newly-formed railroad bed, and it is with this that my heroic tale is to be told. Four miles west of Vinita the constructing engineers of the St. Louis and San Francisco railroad came up to the stake-and-rider fence inclosing the corn-fleld of Patrick Shannahan. a native of Ireland. but a putative citizen by marriage of the Cherokee nation. The en- gineers were about to have the obstruction torn down, when the owner appeared upon the scene with his Winchester at the full cock and a couple of navy sixes in his well-girdled It. With his short- brimmed caubeen well settled down upon his shock of red Wat, spark of fire in his blue eye and a voice of command tinctured with a pure Kerry brogue, he bade them “Lave that fence alone,” for the man that so much as stirred the top rail would ‘get hurt!” Patrick Shannahan, like many heroes, is not of com- manding presence. His build might be de- scribed as ‘‘stuinpy;” his cheeks are broad and well freckled, burned red rather than black by the prairie sun. He is fifty te old and more, and in attire decidedly of the class that is de- scribed in the free western parlance as the “one-gallus crowd.” But there was that in his eye and manner that betokened that he meant business, and the free flow of his voluble vitu- peration of all railroads, and the seed and breed of them did not conceal the fact that’ it came from a determined, as well as indignant, spirit. The engineers, vainly protesting and persuad- ing, withdrew, leaving Pat triumphantly enfilad- ing his enclosure from a fence corner. The next morning the constructing gang sppeared at this point in numbers that they supposed would over- awe the Irish obstructioniat, even if a night's reflection had not brought a conviction of the fatility of his opposition. But Mr. Shannahan wasof the same stuff as Mr. Parnell, and, in- stead of faltering, he had gone forward. In pace ofthe mere skirmish line of defence af- forded by the fence there was aregular fort built of rails and earth, with several port-holes, from which appeared the muzzles of rifles. Over it floated a banner in color not of green, as might have been supposed, but of red, and which on closer observation appeared to be an intimate undergarment of a different sexuality than that under which Master Jack Easy and Gascoigne fought the felucca. The countenance of the re- dot le General Shannahan appeared over the wall, and he repeated his warning of the pre- ces day with even more emphasis and yolu- bi fe na catetance his remarks were that might the devil fly away with him from there to West Car- berry if he would allow himself to be overriden by any railroad without payment for his rights, that payment to be upon delivery and not con- tingent promise, and in hard cash and not dubi- ous vouchers. It may be mentioned that he wanted $1,000, money down, for the right of way, in place of the $300 which the railroad had offered him in the form of a voucher, and with all due respect for Mr. Shannahan’s assertion of a right to a voice in the bargain, it must be ad- mitted that his ideas of remuneration were rather liberal, in view of the fact that the lands of the nation are held in common, and the prac- tical injury would be chiefly confined to that ot his fence and his feelings. However, it was apparent that General Shan- nahan had raised a strong “‘back” among the faction of his dusky bride, including his broth- er-in-law,who sympathized with his indignation and determined to assist him in maintaining his right. Half adozen ready shots, armed with two or three Winchester rifles apiece and a cor- responding number of revolvers, formed the gar- rison of Fort Shannahan, and it was not to be encountered with impunity by a force of peace- ful railroad hands,and it did not seem to occurto them to undertake regular siege operations, in which their use of the spade might have given them the advantage. This party, too, acknowl- edged a balk and retreated. Complaint was made to tne authorities at Vinita, who consist of deputy United States marshals Irom Fort Smith, whose existence and characters are not such as to make them easily subject to bluffor to scare. A party of these, headed by the redoubtable You ix-killer, a half-breed Cherokee, whose formidable name is an index to his family record and his own temper, rode out expecting to clear Shannahan and party easily out of their path. They met witha similar reception and had the shrewd understanding not to desire the job of storming thefort. In short, when Shannahan, waxing indignant, bade them be off outof that for a k ot “‘moroguing raj .” they wheeled eir horses and rode coming Vinita with a decidedly crest-fallen air, and even the valiant Six-killer with a subdued countenance. For ten days Shannahan was master of the situation. The railroad paused at that point, and although it flanked the Shannahan demesne by commencing work on the next section, its direct transcontinental march was stayed. Day and night, if the garrison did not maintain its post, it kept out pickets and was ready to man its port-holes at the first alarm. And its final surrender was not to any force of the railroad or the United States. Chief Bushyhead, of the Cherokee nation, was notified of this resistance to the decrees of the council by a putative sub- ject, and when he rode up to the scene Shanna- han, true to his adopted allegiance, came out and surrendered. Fort Shannahan was disman- tled and the railroad over itsruined heap. Not even a telegraph pole now marks its loca- tion ; but if there is any gratitude in the human Tace and the fabric of our liberties survives the contest with the giant tyranny of monopoly, it should be as sacred as Runnymede and the éabin of Patrick Shannahan attract as many Riignme ss the manor house of Richard Hamp- It grieves me to be obliged to state like Horatio Nelson and some others ok heroic temper, Mr. Shannahan’s domestic relations were not altogether orthodox.
