George Rodgers, of Dorset- , in the, south of England, ac- panied by a nember of intelli- gent Engl.'s* tenant -farmers, has re- cently completed a tour of inspection through the Northwest, made for eel purpdae of selecting a location for a colony of some two thousand English people. After an extend- ed trip, the delegation selected eight • townships tabout 180,000 acres) sin say County, Minnesota, on the line of the Northern Pacific Railroad-- half the area being Government de, and hence subject to free • homestead entry by the colonists, ani the other haif belonging to the • road, Company. A. railroad town, to be named 'Yeovil at the re- , quest of the colonists, has ben set ut apart to the cony, near the centre • of the tracme t. Sotwo hundred families, embracing a thousand Peo- ple, intend to leave. England for the colony leads in, April nexts and the remainder will follow during the m season. The colonists aremainly weIl-teado tenant -farmers and farm- ers' sons, who will bring with, them ea the United States from $.1,000 to $10,000 of capital each,. and a de-' gree of agricultural skill and thoroughness which, when expend- ed upon the fertile lands they have chosen, can hardly fail to result in thrift and success. The full title to the lands bought front the Northern ?eau Railroad Company,will cost these English farmers less than half as muck per acre as they have hith- erto paid for the annual. rental of Dorsetshire lands. , Mr. Rodgers and his practical as- sociates unite in saying that the facts regarding the quality of the Com- pany's lands and the genstral ad- vantages of the Northwestern coun- try have been considerably under- stated by the Company's publications and. representatives in Great Britain. They also concur in the belief that Minnesota. and the country further 'west, in the same latitude,, are' • per-, • 'hotly adapted to English settlement, land that the present colony move- ment is only the forerunner of scores of thousands of Englishmen who will speedly follow and make their homes ip. the great grain belt and stock range of the Northwest, • Mr. Rodgers consulted many of his own countrymen settled in Minnesota, and, without an exceplidn, they • claimed to be prosperous and greatly pleased with the. State as a home for English people who wish to emi- grate te America.—Pisdadeleshia The Blue Laws. The vitality of lies is, something astounding. There is a current -fic- tion known as the Connecticut Blue laws.' These so-called laws are purely fictitious. They were written. and published as a satire on, the people_ of Donee were absolutely without any other found- atim than the brain of the practical joker who drew them up. The fact that they never were enacted, and never were meant to be,. has. been proved scores and scores of times, and yet a week seldom passes with- out some allusion to them by men who either believe, or affect to be- lieve, them genuine. No longer ago than Sunday last, a Catholic elergy- men of this city preached sermon -in which he quoted from these Blue laws to prove th€K intolerance of the early settlers of Connecticut DOLI bt les he believes them to be a part of the Connecticut statute book. He might better have quoted -Knicker- bocker's Yew -Yorker as a veracious history, since the latter does con- tain a little truth, while the blue laws' are- fictitious from beginning to. end.—K.Y. Times. Imraense Wheat Farms in There are three wheat 'farms in the San Joaquin Valley, with areas respectively of 36,000 acres, 23,000 acres, and 17,000 acres. On the largest of these farms tne wheat, crop this year is reputed to be equal to au average of 'forty bushels to the acre, the yield running up on some parts of the farm to sixty bushels. The product of this, fartpsfor the present year is 1440,000 liushels. The boundary on one side of this farm is about seventeen miles long. At the. season of plowing ten four -horse teams were attached to tea gang - plows, each gang having four plows —or forty horses with as many plows were started at the same time,. the teams following in close succes- sion. Lunch or dinner was served at a midway station, and .supper at the terminus of the field, seventeen miles distant from the starting point. The teams returned on the following day. The wheat in this im [Dense field was cut with twenty of the largest reapers, and we believe has now all 'been threshed and put in sacks. It would require over forty ships of medium size to transport the wheat raised on this farm to a foreign market. Even the sacks required • would make a large bele in the sate plus money of most farmers. We have not the figures touching the product of the other two farma ; • much below that efsthe first. There are thousands of tons' of avheat which cannot 'be taken out of the valley this Reason, and Must remain over as dead capital, or, what iwnearly as undesitubIe, will only e -command ad- vances at heavy rates of interest -- San Promise° Bullekin. • • Plants for Sunny Window. Vines foe the. wiedow, ',whether, inSummer or ;n Winter, are now . the fashion of all fond of .window gardening. A pleasant idea of what plants to place in the window is gained from the following. sugges- tions of it. Boston exchange. If your window is sunny, there is no limit to the flowers you may have from Christmas until the wild ones come again. Witls -two nyau- randias, one white, the other purple, with a high colored dwarf nastur- tium (or tropreoleum; as it is called), an English ivy, and 4 vigoroui plant of German ivy .4ur senecio scandens), you can make a screen or your window more beautiful than any Raphael or De Vinci ever designed; for yours is the perfect, original of their defective representation. The vines should be at the ends, of ',the box, so as to lse trained on the sides and Over the top of the window frame. Then, close to the • glass -- for true to its name, it loves the sun —put a heliotrope or two, a trailing Winter blossoming ftielisia, a scarlet geranium, and, for the sake of Con- trast, a. white one, whose flowers have a bright eye in the centre. do not be afraid of crowding the plants ; bat sow mignionette- and a sweet alyssum seed, ae well as the tiny ones of linarise cymbalaria or 'coliseum ivy. If not _intendiugto have but one box; do not forget plant or two of the neat, handsome- ly, marked petunias l for they _will give you 'a mass of flowers from the fast week of blooming untilptit out in the garden in the pring. 'Yel- low myrtle and the plant commonly called wandering Jew and ice -plant, as well, es a variety of saxifrage, known as beefsteak igeraninns, may be made to droop oyer the front of your box; Sind their ,gracefal sprays will reach even to the floor, if you wish. • How Ile Knew Him. A distinguished professor in an American theological seminary re- lates the folloWinges—sBeing in Get - many, with a red-esivere book inhis • hand, a German, suppos. the book to be Murray,' asked itt English, if he was not an Englishman ? The pro- fessor replied in German that . he was not. The conversation pres- ently turned Upon an 'object of architectural beauty near at hand, in the course of which the professor incidentally raised the question of its costs. Sir,' exclaimed the Ger- man instantly, you are an Anted - an!' 'Bow do you know that?' rejoined the professor.

WM. -MALCOM. Saaforth, March 25, 1872. • 225 CAUTION To the Public of -the British Provinces of North • America. T BEG- most respectfully to acquaint the public of the British North American Provinces that in May, 1371, I caused the business at 80 Maiden - Lane, New York, for the sale of Holloway's Pills and Ointmeut, which were np to that time pre- pared by William Brown, now deceased, to be dosed. I regret to say that I have reason to know that the management of the late business had for some years, in many ways, been most cor- rupt, and it nifty be that the Pills and Ointment were not prepared with the care I have elways de- sired. Those who 40 not wish to be deceived by buying spurious medicines, which are now,likelY to emanate from the States or elsewhere, to possess themselves of the genuine Holloway's Pills and Ointment, manufactured by me in London, Eng- land, will do well, tO !see that each pot and box bears the British Government stamp, on which is engraved the words, 'T Holloway's Pills and Oint- ment, and that the address on the label is 588, Oxford -street, London, where oat, they aro manu- factured, and in no other part of the vosid. The retail prices are on the labels in British currency, and not in dollars and cents. No representative of mine will ever 'travel through any part of the British Provinces or the United States, either to sell or to take orders for my Pills and- (hutment, and as I have reason to believe that attempts will probably be made to deceive the public in this -wily by persons calling upon medicine veudera, falsely representing that they are acting for me and with my knowledge andnonsent,7 deem it advisable to put the public on their guard against any such de- ceptions. I most eernestly entreat ell those who may read this advertisement that they be pleased, in the public interest, to coximunitsate the purport of the same to their friends that they may not be defrauded of their money by pnrchasing, perhaps, -worthless imitations of the genuine Holloway'e Pills and Ointment. I would ask, as a great laver, that, should it come to the knowledge 01 any per - sun that spurious medicines are being made or sold in my pone, he be pleased to send me all the -par- tieulars he can collect respecting the same, that is to say, the name and address of the vendor who is selling the spurious medicines, and likewise the name and address of the /louse in the United States or elsewhere,which may have supplied them so as to enable me An- the protection of the pub- lic, to institute eiroceediuge against such evil- doers, and I engage to remunerate very handeozne- ly any person who xtuty give me such inforniation, the informant's name never being diiiilged. Should any person have reason to believe that he has been deceived by buying spurious imitations of these medicines, he 'will do well to send me, in a letter, to the address at foot (which he can do at a cost of six centsin postage), one *of the books of instruction which are affixed to tbe same. I prem- ise to examine it lindsend a reply, stating -whether the medicines are genuine or not, so that, if spu- rious he may apply to the person from whom he purchased them to have his money returned. Chemists and Druggists wlao desire So obtain the medicines can be supplied at the lowest wholesale prices, in quantities of not less than $20 worth— viz., 8s. tick, 22s. and 84s.per dozen boxes of Pills or pots of Ointment, net, without die" comt, for which remittance must be sent in advance.
