The United States papers generally ex- press their gratiliciition at the intelligence that Mr Dallas would not be dismissed by the British Government. The al'l'airs of Kaiiziis seein, just now, to engross the at- tention of Congretd. A move made in the Lower brancli for the organization of Kan- zus as It Free State, had failed of success. A bill has been introduced into the Senate providing that a census ofthat Territory be taken by commissioners of various shades of p--litics to be appointed by the President; and if, or so soon as the population has reached the num"er required by Law, the Constitution of Karizas shall be settled by its citizens themselves, all Squiitters being recognized as citizens, and it shall be ad- miﬂed into the Union as a State. It is be- lieved that this Bill will be passed by both Houses. ln Kanzas itself there is being carried on what they a rail Civil \Var, in the United States. Large bodies of insur- gent troops, ofpnlitical parties, keep march- ing about and coming into frequent contact with each other and with troops of United States’ driigoons ; but when they do come to an engagement, they never get beyond the first volley—that always produces what may be called a mutual retreat. The only blood spilled is when an occasional assass-

ination takes place.

There is not much news of importance from Central America. The Costa. Rica army had almost disappeared under the effects of cholera and desertion in consequence.

agricultural papers, and many experienced writers and fai-mers have called attention to the facts that they are more valuable from their nutritive qualities, than is generally supposed. The following remarks on car- rots, from an exchange, will be found worth perussl:— “ Every farmer should cultivate these valuable roots ; they make excellent food for horses in winter, as the circus com- panies know, who pay high prices for car- rots to keep their hores in good condition. For milch cows they are invaluable ; for

poultry they are excellent. Prepare your ground well, if not already done, and ma- nure with compost or guano in the row ; plant two or two and a half feet apart. An acre should produce at least five hundred bushels of carrots, worthy thirty cents per bushel, which would make $I50. The cost of ground rent and cultivation would not be over $50, so that there is a clear gain of $100. This calculation is moderate ; we have known a thousand bushels raised per acre, and sold at forty cents per bushel. By all means plant an aera.and your horses,

when the snows of winter cover the ground, and no green thing can be found for their cod."

How to Muucs Fitni-r Taass.—A cul- tivator of fruit, whose good example is re- ferred to in the New England Farmer, keeps a circle of several feet around the roots of every tree clear of grass. and enriches it with chip manure, and several other kinds of fertilizing substances. He has very large crops of most excellent fruit, which he states bring him more money than any of the neighbouring farmers obtain from all their crops.
