THE EVENING STAR. I'tilt of rnrti and Hfd|«. Ani Illinois correspoadent of the Country tirmtltinan writes: ..The enormous coat of fencing -with posts and boards has driven he farmers of Oentral Illinois largely lato planting hedges, ud one ran scarcely ride a miM la Champaign county but be sees more or leas rods of hedge trans¬ planted on:, the current year. 1 havs figured npr be cos: of a three-board fence per rod for eighty rods.that ia a quartar of a mile, or the fence necessary on one aid* of a forty acre tract Tbc cost in Central Illinois of the material delivered on the ground will be pretty nearly as follows: l.®H)fa«t fenclnr. at .*» per l,f«Ob. m...S59 4P lf>5 oak posts, at 15c. each 24 45 44 lbs. 8d. fence nails at 9c 3 Building H> rods, at »c. per rod 00 $103 P3 "The dimenaiona of the boards used in the a be\e estimate are sixteen feet long, six inshes wide and one inch thick. I put the estimate at tbe lowest, and the fence is the least pos¬ sible fence that will turn stock. The coat tnen is ?l .«& per Tod, or *4lfl ii P*r °* ( than «1(» an a«re on a forty-acre tract, ttui such a fence will require renewing as often as once in ten years, so tbat the coat of h®*P* mg np the fencing on a forty-acre tract would be equal to paying off a mortgage of $10 par fecrf f'Ypry t^D yptirB. . It is thl-t enormous outlay and drain which has driven our farmers to hedging, and almost exclusively wirb the Osage orange. Hedge plants are extensively gTown by nurserymen and others engaged in the business, and the plants sell from Stf to #5 per thousand. There are parties who contract to make hedges, but the better and surer practice seems to be tor the farmer to grow his own plants, and raise and trim his own hedges. The cost of the for¬ mer per rod 1 have heard estimated at from Ot) cents to*l, at fonr years old.I should put at the highest figures The Osage orange does well here everywhere, except in standing water. In the old, unprnned hedges herea¬ bouts the female trees, which are few In pro¬ portion to the male trees and a more vigorous hab.t, bear good crops of Osage orange annu¬ ally. and t>e seed ripens and vegetates as well as tbat brought from Arkansas, the home of the Bois d'Arc. In five or ten years the fsce of the country will be a good deal chanced by the hedges, and I suppose at tbe end ol that time we shall have experienced eome change. Hedges are great protectors, if not breeders, of all kinds of vermin, destruc¬ tive alike to grain and fruits, and if they are found in some measure to ameliorate and modify onr climate, 1 fear these advantagea will t>e more than compensated for by the protection they afford to rabbit?, rats, mice, birds and insects." Fatal Accidenta from Mewing Machines. The great number of serious and fatal ac¬ cidents wnich are reported every year as arising from carelessness in handling mowing machines, or from drivers being thrown off from their seats in fron* of them, has led to much thought, both on the part of conscien¬ tious manufacturers and others, to prevent ench occurrences. Some mowing machines are pecnliary liable to tbrow the driver off on going over rough gronnd, or when the cutter bar strikes a fixed obstacle. They should be avoided by purchasers, as one would any treacherous, dangerous thing. When acci¬ dents occur and are reported in tbe papers, ibe nsme of the machine should be given. M e should like to publish a list showing the number of each machine in use, the number of accidents to those using them, could a lair one be made out. Some years ago a lady of Burlington, N. J., invented an arrangement far throwing tbe knives out of the gear the instant th® driver s weight was taken from the aeat. We never knew of its being put to use There bave been several other guards contTived, generally, however, not applicable to all ma- chines. We received a suggestion in a letter from Mr. J. S. Hammond, of Scarsdale, which we regard as eminently practical and sensible, and believe it will be the m egns ol saving many lives and limbs. Hesays: ..As the mewing seaaen Is rapidly approach¬ ing I disiretomafce known a simple device, which 1 have employed dnring two seasons, to prevent being thrown from my mowing machine. It Is well known that serious acci¬ dents have been thus produced. It is this: 1 take a strong leather strap, about thirty incbet long, and pissing one end between the bars on the left aide of the seat, (generally of open iron-work,) buckle, so as to make a loop. Put the left arm through this loop. Let the loop be long enough to allow free use of the arm in driving, and at the same time to steady tbe body The right arm must be free to work the machine. Should the machine atriks a hidden obstacle, the atrap will prevent the riCer lrom bsing thrown to the right aide, or forward, upon the knives, and will inmost cases enable him to keep hla seat. Properly adjusted, it will not interiere with the man¬ agement of the team or the machine.".Amer- jean Agriculturist. - fgr The New York police have been paying attention to the lottery swindlers, and on Wednesday crushed two of them.one a pre¬ tended Masonic affair, and the other a grand gilt scheme.

These facts are only intended to show that these Bonds are strictly one of the safest, as well as one of the most profitable, securities, and are fully entitled to the confidence of the public. The Company make no appeal to the public to purekaee its Bonds, as the daily subscriptions are large, and fully equal to their wants.

THE EVENING STAR.I'tilt of rnrti and Hfd|«.

Ani Illinois correspoadent of the Countrytirmtltinan writes:..The enormous coat of fencing -with postsand boards has driven he farmers of OentralIllinois largely la to planting hedges, ud one

ran scarcely ride a miM la Champaign countybut be sees more or leas rods of hedge trans¬planted on:, the current year. 1 havs figurednpr be cos: of a three-board fence per rod foreighty rods.that ia a quartar of a mile, or thefence necessary on one aid* of a forty acretract Tbc cost in Central Illinois of thematerial delivered on the ground will bepretty nearly as follows:l.®H)fa«t fenclnr. at .*» per l,f«Ob. m...S59 4Plf>5 oak posts, at 15c. each 24 4544 lbs. 8d. fence nails at 9c 3 s®Building H> rods, at »c. per rod 00

$103 P3"The dimenaiona of the boards used in the

abe\e estimate are sixteen feet long, six insheswide and one inch thick. I put the estimateat tbe lowest, and the fence is the least pos¬sible fence that will turn stock. The coat tnenis ?l .«& per Tod, or *4lfl ii P*r °*

(than «1(» an a«re on a forty-acre tract, ttuisuch a fence will require renewing as oftenas once in ten years, so tbat the coat of h®*P*mg np the fencing on a forty-acre tract wouldbe equal to paying off a mortgage of $10 parfecrf f'Ypry t^D yptirB.

. It is thl-t enormous outlay and drain whichhas driven our farmers to hedging, and almostexclusively wirb the Osage orange. Hedgeplants are extensively gTown by nurserymenand others engaged in the business, and theplants sell from Stf to #5 per thousand. Thereare parties who contract to make hedges, butthe better and surer practice seems to be torthe farmer to grow his own plants, and raiseand trim his own hedges. The cost of the for¬mer per rod 1 have heard estimated at fromOt) cents to*l, at fonr years old.I should putat the highest figures The Osage orangedoes well here everywhere, except in standingwater. In the old, unprnned hedges herea¬bouts the female trees, which are few In pro¬portion to the male trees and a more vigoroushab.t, bear good crops of Osage orange annu¬ally. and t>e seed ripens and vegetates aswell as tbat brought from Arkansas, the homeof the Bois d'Arc. In five or ten years thefsce of the country will be a good dealchanced by the hedges, and I suppose attbe end ol that time we shall have experiencedeome change. Hedges are great protectors, ifnot breeders, of all kinds of vermin, destruc¬tive alike to grain and fruits, and if they arefound in some measure to ameliorate andmodify onr climate, 1 fear these advantageawill t>e more than compensated for by theprotection they afford to rabbit?, rats, mice,birds and insects."

Fatal Accidenta from Mewing Machines.The great number of serious and fatal ac¬

cidents wnich are reported every year asarising from carelessness in handling mowingmachines, or from drivers being thrown offfrom their seats in fron* of them, has led tomuch thought, both on the part of conscien¬tious manufacturers and others, to preventench occurrences. Some mowing machinesare pecnliary liable to tbrow the driver off ongoing over rough gronnd, or when the cutterbar strikes a fixed obstacle. They should beavoided by purchasers, as one would anytreacherous, dangerous thing. When acci¬dents occur and are reported in tbe papers,ibe nsme of the machine should be given.M e should like to publish a list showing thenumber of each machine in use, the number ofaccidents to those using them, could a lair onebe made out.Some years ago a lady of Burlington, N. J.,

invented an arrangement far throwingtbe knives out of the gear the instant th®driver s weight was taken from the aeat.We never knew of its being put to use Therebave been several other guards contTived,generally, however, not applicable to all ma-chines.We received a suggestion in a letter from

Mr. J. S. Hammond, of Scarsdale, which weregard as eminently practical and sensible,and believe it will be the m egns ol savingmany lives and limbs. Hesays:

..As the mewing seaaen Is rapidly approach¬ing I disiretomafce known a simple device,which 1 have employed dnring two seasons,to prevent being thrown from my mowingmachine. It Is well known that serious acci¬dents have been thus produced. It is this:1 take a strong leather strap, about thirtyincbet long, and pissing one end between thebars on the left aide of the seat, (generally ofopen iron-work,) buckle, so as to make a loop.Put the left arm through this loop. Let theloop be long enough to allow free use of the armin driving, and at the same time to steady tbebody The right arm must be free to workthe machine. Should the machine atriks ahidden obstacle, the atrap will prevent theriCer lrom bsing thrown to the right aide, orforward, upon the knives, and will inmostcases enable him to keep hla seat. Properlyadjusted, it will not interiere with the man¬agement of the team or the machine.".Amer-jean Agriculturist.- fgr The New York police have been payingattention to the lottery swindlers, and onWednesday crushed two of them.one a pre¬tended Masonic affair, and the other a grandgilt scheme.

The editor of an Iowa paper says thatthe heavens were black, one day last week,with wild geese flying South, and conse¬quently presages that winter will be here inSeptember.V A young German girl, named Louisa

Miller, attempted to shoot her former lover onThursday night at St. Louis, falling in whichthe shot and killed hersell.¦y The Davenport brothers are performing

The Company would state that their work con¬tinues to be pushed forward with great rapidity,and

436 MILES WEST FROM OMAHAARE NOW IN OPERATION,

and stocked with locomotives, cars, aud all the ap*pnrtenances of a first class road.The amount already paid in by stockholders of

the Company is 85j(M).OUO.The aid received from the H. 8. Government in

constructing this portion of 425 miles is.1. A Donation ofl2,800 acresof adjacent

lands to the mile (nearly all very val¬uable,) amounting to 5,400,000 acres

2. U. S. Six per cent. Currency InterestBonds, which are a second lien, at therate of $16,000 to the mile amounting,for 425 miles, to 86Jft',000

The amount of the Company's own FirstMortgage Bonds on 425 miles is 86,30:',(W0

It will be seen that, trelusive of the landgrant, the First Mortgage Bonds represent onlyabout ome third of the value of the property onwhich they are secured. The Company is also re¬strained by its charter from issuing its bonds ex¬cept as the work progresses, and to the sameamount on the various sections as are issued bythe Government The mortgage which se¬cures the bondholders is made to Hon. E. D. Mor¬gan, U. S. Senator from New York, and Hon. OakeBAmes, Member of the U. 8.

It should be rememberedthatthe«e earnings are only upon a tray businessin anew and undeveloped country, and are no indexof the vast traffic that must follow the completionof the whole line to the Pacific in 1870. These factsare only intended to show that these Bonds arestrictly one of the safest, as well as one of the mostprofitable, securities, and are fully entitled to theconfidence of the public. The Company make noappeal to the public to purekaee its Bonds, as thedaily subscriptions are large, and fully equal totheir wants.Many parties are taking adrantage of the present

high price of Government stocks to exchange forthese bonds, which are over 15 per cent, cheaper,and, at the current rate of premium on gold,pay
