Lor.Ifdami and Texas.
Prejudice blinds people to every object
save that which they most desire to see.
We do not doubt that the time will speed
ily come when the action of President
Grant toward Louisiana and the other
Southern States will be regarded as the
most fair aud impartial exercise of execu
tive power. Even now, the very men
who make it the business of their lives to
condemn the President are unwittingly
vindicating him by continued indorse
ments ofa course which he has pursued,
but which thvy seem to think ha3 never
been adopted. The case of Louisiana is
an example of this. Laying aside all
prejudice, what could the President do
that he has not done? An. election was
held, and each party accused the other of
gross frauds. The question as to which
ef the candidates was elected went to the
courts. The latter decided in favor of
Kellogg, and, in accordance with this de
cision, the latter was installed and be
came the head of the de facto government
of the State. The President could
not go behind this decision. He is
an executive officer simply. He
is there to enforce the laws, not
to make them, or to promulgate the de
crees of a court. If any power can inter
fere and go back of the record thus made
np.it certainly is not the Executive. He
therefore simply does his' dut' in the
premises. He maintains order, ami re
gards the de facto the prima facie govern
ment as the only one until the highest
legislative power can pass upon the mat
ter. There is not an unprejudiced per
son in the world who would not commend
this action. He M as forced to recognize
one of the parties. Now, which should
it be? The one which had possession,
had the certificates, and had the support
of the judicial tribunals, or the one w hich
had none of these claims to recognition?
Why, to have recognized the other party
in tiiis contest no matter what its equi
table claims were would have been such
a wanton disregard of every principle of
law, and such a tyrannical assumption of
power by the President, as would have
righteously merited his impeachment.
Accused of partisanship and selfish
seeking after power, the President has
the firmness and good sense to go straight
ahead doing his duty fearlessly-, regard
less of praise or blame.
Take the Texas difficulty a3 another
example. Here the parties were changed.
It was the Republican ox which had been
gored. And it must be said that there
were many legal grounds for doubt as to
the right of the Democratic candidates
to take control of the State; but the Pres
ident took the plain, common Bense view
of it, and decided as seemed to him fair
and honorable. He said to Governor
Davis: "If the election was illegal, you
ought not to have taken part in it. Hav
ing tlone so, and having been defeated by
30,000 majority, you are estopped from de
nying its legality." And upon this de
cision of the President the Democratic
candidates entered upon the various offices
to which they had been elected, and a dis
turbance was avoided. Is it not wonderful
that the Democratic Senators in Con
gress who so highly commended this
non-interference ofthe President or Con
gress in the affairs of Texas should
gravely propose to pass a law setting aside
the election in .Louisiana? let this is
the miraculous change that partisanship
can ellect in the principles ot a State
rights Democrat.
It is time that this reckless and silly de
nunciation of the President should cease.
Senator Carpenter has been widely com
mended by the Democratic press lor hia
course in the Louisiana matter, but he
had the wisdom to perceive, and the good
sense to assert, that the President could
not have safely done otherwise than he
did. I he country will yet appreciate
most lully the inestimable service ren
dered by General Grant in civil as well as
military life, and, conscious of his vindi
cation, he can afford to wait. Chicaao

The Lunatics' Ball.
At the recent annual ball at the Lunatic
Asylum in New Haven, Conn., twenty
couples entered the hall, ranged in two
lines facing each other, and stood in
profound silence, waiting the music. In
this party the strangeness of the perform
ers was most apparent. The men wore a
look upon their faces of such resolution
as one would expect on that of a brave
man brought face to face with some terri
ble danger. The women were more wan
dering in their glances, but nearly all
were serious, too. The music burst forth
and a simultaneous movement followed;
all sorts of movements, some cultivated
steps, but for the most part a mere violent
shuinin? exercise. Directly they all
seemed to have forgotten that they had
partners, and settled down into dancing.
There M as some peculiarity about every
individual, but in every one was observa
ble a sort of ecstacy. Some of them kept
their gaze fixed on the ceiling, turning
neither to the right nor the left; others
kept a watch upon their feet, which, to
their bewildered minds, were perhaps go
ing sadly astray. New Ytnk Time.
-Making Wax Flowers.
Our lady readers wfll find the imitating
of natural llowers in wax a very agreeable
amrsenent for long winter afternoons
and evenings. The work is not difficult,
and with a little practice ornaments of
great taste and beauty can be made. The
materials can be obtained for a small sum
from any dealer in artist's materials.
Some knowledge of the general form of
llowers is of course necessary to begin
with, nor should a little artistic skill be
entirely lacking. Forms of various leaves,
of tin, to be used as patterns, may easily
be obtained, but the best imitations of
nature we have ever seen Mere made di
rectly from the natural flower. A hand
ful of blossoms may be purchased from
any florist, and carefully dissected; then
by tracing the shape of leaves, etc., on pa
per, quite a collection of patterns may be
gained. The British Trade Journal says
that the best white wax is required for the
artpure, and free from granulation. The
consistency may need to be modified, ac-
rnS toPVe 8!.ale of the weather, and
the part of the flower to be imitated; it
may be made firmer and more translucent
l&nJ wlUon f a ,Ut,e Pmaceti,
while Ac-nice turpentine will eire it
ductility. In preparing the wax Jr use
it is melted with Canada balsam, or some
kind of f.ne turpentine, and poured into
flat tiii molds; these give ittlie form of
quadrangular b ocks or slabs about an
inch thick. These blocks are cut into
thin sheets or films, in one or other of
several different ways bv fiTin .
flat, with sere w and I andXingoff
layers with a kind of fipokj
holding a block in the hand, and passing
it along a carpenter's plane, having the
tace uppermost; or causing the block to
rise gradually over the edge ofthe mold,
and cutting off successive slices with a
smooth edged knife.
The coloring of the wax is an impor
tant matter, seeing that in some instances
the tint must penetrate the whole sub-
Btance: whereas in others it is better
when laid on the surface, as a kind of
paint. 1 he choice of colors is nearly the
same as for other kinds of artificial flowers,
but not in all instances. The white colors
are produced by white lead, silver white,
and one or two other kinds; for red, ver
milion, minium, lake and carmine; for
rose color, carmine, following an appli
cation of dead white (to avert yellowish
tints); for blue, ultramarine, cobalt, indigo
and Prussian blue; for yellow, chrome
yellow, massicot, Naples yellow, orpi
ment, 3'ellow ocher anil gamboge; for
green, verdigris, Schweinfurth green,
arsenic green (the less of this the better),
and various mixtures of blue and yellow.
For violet, salmon, flesh, copper, lilac,
and numerous intermediate tints, various
mixtures of some or other of the colors
already named. Most of these coloring
substances are employed in the form of
powder, worked upon a muller and stone
with essential oil of citron or lavender,
and mixed with wax in a melted state;
the mixture is strained through muslin,
and then cast in the flat molds already
mentioned; or else a muslin bag filled
with color is steeped for a time in the
melted wax. The material dealers sell
these slabs of wax ready dyed, to save
the flower-maker from a kind of work
which is chemical rather than manipula
tive. Some flowers reouire that the wax
shall be used in a purely white bleached
state, color being afterwards applied to
the surface of selected spots.
The wax is, of course, the chief material
employed in wax-flower makinff; but it is
by no means the only one. VV ire bound
round with preen silk.tintinc brushes and
pencils, shapes or stencil patterns, molds
and stampers, flock or ground up w oolen
rag, and many other implements and
materials, are needed.
j he patterns of leaves and petals are
made from paper or thin sheet tin, copied
from the natural objects; and the wax
sheets are cut out in conformity with
tuem. un.'y. the smaller and lighter
leaves are, however, made in this M-ny;
those of firmer texture and fixity of shape
are made in plaster molds. The patterns
are laid on a flat, smooth service of damp
sand ; a ring is built up round them, and
liquid plaster is poured into the cell thus
formed. Generally two such molds are
necessary, one for "the upper and one for
the lower surface of the leaf. Sometimes
wooden molds are employed, into which
(when moistened to prevent adhesion) the
M ax is poured in a melted but not very
hot state. Occasionally the entire mold
is dipped into molten wax, to produce
petals and leaves of peculiar size and
shape. The stems are made by working
Max eiexterously around Mires, with or
without an intervening layer of silken
thread. 15y the use of flock, down, var
nishes, etc., the'leaves are made to pre
sent a glossy surface on one side and a
velvety surface on the other. A singular
niode of preparing films of usual thin
ness is bv the aid ofa small wooden cyl
inder, like a cotton reel, or rather a rib
bon reel ; this is dipped and rotated in
melted wax until it takes up a thin layer,
which layer, when cold, is cut and un
coiled; the difference of smoothness
which the two surfaces presents fit them
to represent the upper and loM-er surfaces
of a leaf or petal. The combination of
all these materials into a built up flower
is a kind of work not differing much from
that exercised in regard to textile llow
ers. Scientific American.
Working Cattle Yokes and Dows.
Wim working cattle, one of the most
important requisites is that they be as
well housed and fed as you M ould horses.
It is true they need not be blanketed,
neither need they be fed so much concen
trated food as horses, but good care and
feeding pays as well with work oxen as
horses.
Another point for consideration is the
desirability of yokes as compared with
harness. While mc concede the value of
harness for the wagon, the yoke has so
many advantages ia other directions, as
in logging, plowing, etc., that we think it
will not be soon superseded.
The proper shape, length and construc
tion, therefore, of the yoke is of impor
tance. For medium-sized oxen, the whole
length of the yoke should be three
and one-half feet; the distance be
tween the bow-holes inside should
be twenty inches; tha distance be-tM-een
the outside and inside bow-holes
six and one-half inches. This M ould give
as the distance from outside to outside of
the bow-holes thirty-three inches, leaving
four and one half inches on each side of
the yoke beyond. The bows, as to length,
must be proportioned to the neck of the
oxen, being somewhat oval in form, the
swell about one-half of the May between
the bottom of the yoke and the bottom of
the bows, or where the ox's shoulder's
come; the bows when formed to be not
less than one and a half inches thick.
The staple and ring should be placed in
a direct line M ith the holes for the boM-s
and equi-distant bet ween the inside holes,
unless one ofthe oxen is much the strong
er, when it must be varied so that the
weaker animal may have the longer end
ofthe yoite.
The proper form for a yoke cannot be
tlescribed in words. The workman must
get a good model to work from. Yellow
birch, beech or maple make good heavy
yokes; for ordinary M'ork, bassM'ood (lin
den) is both easily worked and makes a
good light yoke. If thoroughly oiled
after being made, and this be repeatetl
occasionally, it will last indefinitely.
With basswood, six inches should be al
lowed from outside holes to end of yoke.
When a yoke is to be made for particular
animals, a good rule is to stand them
squarely together and so that their bellies
are six incnes apart. Then the distance
from outside to outside of the necks
is the distance between the outside holes;
the inside holes to be at sucn a distance
inside as to give free play to the neck
M'ithout allowing it to twist under the
yoke.
ihe bows are made by first working
out strips of hickory or elm to the proper
size, leaving a strip of bark on the outer
edge; then steaming the M'ood thoroughly
in a box made lor the purpose, and then
bending, while hot, round a form cut for
the purpose, in a block of wood, say the
stump of a tree, and properly securing
them there until set. We should never
advise the farmer to make his own yokes
or bows where it is possible to buy them,
since they are far more perfectly' made
than can be done with the tools usually
at liantl to the larmer or village black
smith. Roth yokes and bows are now
easily procured at the agricultural stores in
our large towns and cities. There are many
places, however, where yokes and bows
cannot bo procured, and in this case it is
well to know how to make them. This
can be done by any one handy with tools,
having a pattern to work from.
It will not be out ot place in conclusion
to say that in training! steers they must
be taught to submit quietly to be yoked
and unyoked. It may take some time and
require some patience, and a judicious
feeding as a reward, but the driver will
be well satisfied in the end, when either
steer will come at the word to be yoked
or harnessed. Another point is to make
them work equally well on either side,
and in tins there is no trouble. A yoke
of one-half or tnree-quarters bred Devons,
that are well matched for activity, will do
fully as much work at plowing, dragging
and other like work as an ordinary team
of horses, and are worth fully as much
money: nay, more, for when unfit for
work they may be fattened for the butcher
and will bring fully three-quarters of
their original working value. Western

Ron ax for Colds. A write; in the
Hfedical Record cites a number 01 2Jrscs in
M'hich borax has proved a most effective
remedy in certain forms of colds. He
states that in sudden hoarseness or loss ot
voice in speakers and singers, from colds,
relief for an hour or so, as by magic, may
be often obtained by slowly dissolving
and partially swallowing a lump of borax
the 6ize of a garden pea, or about three or
tour grains, neld in me mouth ten min
utes before speaking or singing. This
produces a profuse secretion of the saliva,
or "waterinar" of the mouth and throat
probably restoring the voice or tone to
the dried vocal cords, just as "wetting"
brings back the missing notes to a flute
when it is loo dry.
Skillful French cooks have discov
ered, it is said, oCi methods of cooking
eggs. Surely American ingenuity should
be able to elevise something near an equal
number of different ways of cooking
apples a kind of fruit which is healthful,
appetizing and nourishing. There are
scores of recipes for making apples into
puddings, pies, tarts, cake and preserves;
for mingling them M-ith flour, butter, eggs,
etc., and forming thus very agreeable
compounds; but perhaps there is 110 more
palaiable way of serving apples on the
table than by baking them, anil adding
sugar and cream when they are eaten.
Each family can easily choose its favorite
method of cooking apples; but in some
form they will be lound a most desirable
substitute for preserves, sweetmeats aud
other condiments.
The first office of food is to supply the
wear and tear of life, and to build up the
body of animals when they are growing.
Growing animals naturally appropriate
a larger portion of the nutriment given to
them than other animals whose growth
has ceased. A full grown animal requires
about the same amount of elaily food to
maintain it in store order as would have
served to keep it growing up to about the
period of full growth, which suggests the
inexpediency of delay when that stage has
been reached. "While the work of build
ing up the body is going on the material
employed is rigidly economized and
devoted to the object of enlargement, and
when all the parts of the body have
gained growth one source of profit to the
feeder is at once closed. It is always de
sirable that young animals which are ex
pected to get through the business of their
lives in less than two years, and to keep
in good health so as to make the best use
of tlieir time, should be kept in spacious
apartments. JV. Y. Herald.
How To Make Grafting Wax.
Thomas Matteson, McKean County, Penn
sylvania, M-rites: "Take two parts mutton
tallow, three parts beeswax; melt the tal
low first, aud put the beesM-ax and resin
into it. When it is all melted, stir it all
up and pour it into cold water and M'ork
it over. If there are lumps in it, mash
them M-ith your thumb and finger. The
longer you M'ork it the more sticky it
groMS. When it begins to stick to your
hands put some tallow on them. Work it
till it is all sticky as you want it. Put in
a tin pan with a cover to it, and it will
keep for a number of years. I think it is
as good as sticking salve to put on any
sores. Some people put in more tallow
than they put in resin or beeswax, to make
it softer to work in cold weather; but if
there is too much tallow in it, it will melt
and run out in warm weather. I have

Book Publishers, Chicago, have in press an
exhaustive History of the Fakmeks' Move
ment, by Hon. J.'Periam, Editor Western
Rural, one of our ablest and best known
agricultural writers. Its title is The
Grocndswell. It Mill be the standard
work on Granges, Clubs, etc., aud is cer

Farmers especially, should read' the pub
lishers' advertisement. It is bound to sell.
As sexN as any soreness is felt in the
ear, let three or four drops of the tincture
of arnica be poured in, and the orifice be
filled with a little cotton to exclude the
air, and in a short time the uneasiness is
forgotten. If the arnica is not resorted to
until there is actual pain, then the cure
may not be as speedy, but just as certain,
although it may be necessary to repeat the
operation. It is a sure preventive against
gathering in the ear, which is the usuul
cause of earache. Exchange.
Don't Tamper m ith a Coi.o. Perhaps in
the whole eutegory of diseases to which hu
manity is susceptible, the cough is most neg
lected in its early 6tage. A simple cough is
generally regarded as a temporary afT.ietion
unpleasant and nothing more; but to those
who have paid dearly for experience, it is the
signal for attack for the most fearful of all
diseases Consumption. A cough will lead to
consumption if not cheeked to eure as the
rivulet leads to the river, yet it is an easy ene
my to thwart, if met by the proper remedy.

Medical ADVEr.TisiNa. -The medical
profession are outspoken in their elenun
ciation of the system of medical advertis
ing, and ueci-ire that any medicine that
is advertised is a fraud. How thoroughly
inconsistent and unfair is such an argu
ment. 1 he men who are so loud in their
Criticisms, are those who advertise t
selves as medical savana by ostenta
display; splentlid residences M'ith ma.
door-plates; last norses and costly
riages. Dit. J. Walker, of Californ
old practitioner, respected alike f
skill and conscientious indenend
dares to differ; and having discovert!
his Vinegar Bitters a purely herba
medicine, free from all spirituous po
a wonderful specific for numerous
orders, advertises tne same lor the r
of his fellow man, and is borne out ir
elcclarations of its many virtues
thousands of invalids.M hoare being c
of disease by its use.
Scientific iil Safe Treatment.
When applied Mith Dr. Tierce's Nasal
Douche aul accompanied with Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery as constitutional
treatment. Dr. Sage's Catarrh Kemedy pro
duces perfect cures of the worst cates of Ca
tarrh and Oz;rua of many years' standing.
This thorough course of medication consti
tutes the only scientific, rational, safe and
successful manner of treating this odious dis
ease that has ever beep offered to the afflicted.
So successful has it proven that the pro
prietor has long offered a standing reward of
f 500 for a case of Catarrh which he caimot
cure.
IXPIsrUTAnLE EVIDENCE.
Tnos. J. Bishop, of South Urooklyn, N'. Y.,
writes that hisM'ife. had suffered siuee a child
with Catarrh until it laid resulted ia what em
inent physicians pronounced Consumption;
that ehe has used I)r. Sage's Catarrh Remedy
with Dr. Pierce's Goldeu Medical Discovery,
and they have worked wonders with her case.
STEALING OUR TnCNPEU.
People should beware of those impostors
who not only try to imitate Dr. Pierce's
Family Medicines but aIo copy his
original style of advertising, by offer
ing various sized rewards tor cases of
Catarrh and other diseases wLich they
cannot cure. Those who do not possess suf
ficient intelligence to enable them to write an
original advertisement are not likely to have
made great and valuable discoveries in medi
cine. "Look out for them.
We understand that the whooping-cough is
quite prevalent in the towns around us; but
that no eases have prov; d fatal. Some fami
lies use nothing but in.s.n' AKxfrte Lini
