    Senator Morton In Ohio.
The speech of Senator Morton at Ur
bana, in Ohio, reminds us of w hat should
not be forgotten. Important as the finan
cial question necessarily ia to the country,
and closely as it is brought home to every
man's interest, it in not the only vital na
tional question. It is naturally represent
cd to be bo by those who wish to obscure
other and most serious issues. But those
who assert that there is no Southern ques
tion, because "the South" is at peace,
carefully conceal the fact that it is at
peace chiefly because the National Gov
ernment is in Republican hands, and that
it would cease to be so if the object for
which the assertion is mads should be ac
complished and the Democratic party re
turn to power. And this for the simple
reason tiiat all those who are dissatistied
with the peace that exists in that quarter
look to Democratic success as the sole
ground o! hope for disturbance. If it
were well understood that the National
Government would continue under lie
publican control, all the discontented
spirits in the Southern States would adjust
themselves to the order established by re
construction. But so long as they have a
liope of overthrowing the Republicans
they will Ik; the source of apprehension
and disorder. 3Ir. Morton very truly says
that reconciliation and harmony cannot
be accomplished by Northern celebrations
and junketings. Every man from the
Southern section, whether ex-relel or not,
ii sure of courtesy and justice in the
Northern States. All that is wanted is
that every man, native or stranger, shall
te sure of the same in the Southern States.
When that is the situation, restoration
will be complete. And that situation de
pends wholly upon the citizens of those
States. The Senator wisely deprecates the
confusion of right and wrong which is
implied in the etiual honoring of the sol
diers upon both sides in the conflict. The
pushing eagerness to shake hands over the
bloody chasm is very likely to lead us to
forget the eternal gulf that separates "the
lost cause" of slavery trom the sacred
cause of liberty and justice. AVe are by
nil means to forgive, but by all our love oi
man and of country we are not to forget.
The continuance of Republican ascend
ancy will be the final and conclusive proof
that there is that universal acquiescence in
the new order which is w armly asserted to
exist by the Democrals. As the principles
of reconstruction have been steadily de
nounced by them, as they have constantly
described the Southern situation as a usur
pation, a tyranny, a despotism, a satrapy,
an anarchy, and as the first Democratic
utterance after the Republican defeats of
last autumn was a demand for the repeal
of legislation under the amendments, it is
evident that Democratic success must nec
essarily lead to attempts to withstand those
principles, to overthrow that tyranny, and
to repeal those laws. Mr. Lamar, of Mis
sissippi, has recently made a speech in
which he describes the woes of "the
South" as worse than those of Rome, and
attributes them to Republican ascendency,
lie says that the sudden enfranchisement
of the negroes was a great catastrophe.
But he agrees that the rights of the blacks
are the duties of the whites, and argues
earnestly against the color line in politics,
llis speech is very suggestive. For if he
feels so strongly what he calls the in
justice of the Republican party, how
much more strongly must the party
and the people in whose name ho
speaks feel it! And how eager must
they be to remedy that injustice by
obviating the consequences of the catastro
phe! llis earnest appeal for respect of the
rights of the colored citzens is the strong
est evidence of a recognized contempt ot
them among his hearers, and that hostility,
as we all know, counts upon Democratic
success. "We agree with Mr. Lamar that a
national policy of distrust and suspicion
toward Mississippi and other Southern
States is ungenerous and unwise. But
such a policy, as he saw in Congress last
winter, is not demanded by the Republi
can party. No sensible man, however,
will accept a profusion of acquiescence or
a gushing hurra for the flag as a reason for
forgetting experience and despising knowl
edge of human nature. We sjtoke recently
of Gen. T. M. Logan's speech to the Hamp
ton Legion in South Carolina, in which he
said that the ex-rebel soldiers had accepted
the Union as their own. But in the same
breath he declared that he was not willing
to assert that the principles for which they
fought had been settled or destroyed.
Such talk may be dismissed as bravado.
But it shows a spirit w hich sensible states
men carefully observe, and patriotic men
do not hasten to put the Government into
the hands of men who make such speeches,
nor of those for whom they speak.
These arc, considerations that must not
be overlooked, however urgent the fin an
rial question may be. Obviously the
Democratic policy is to insist that the
only question of the election next year is
administrative reform. But the Southern
Democracy cares very little for reform of
any kind. And in other parts of the
country what sign of Democratic interest
in reform has been shown except Gov.
Tilden's war upon the canal ring in New
York ? In Ohio, in Connecticut, in New
Hampshire, in Missouri, Maryland and
Keutucky, where the Democratic party is
in the ascendant, what evidence of a de
sire or capacity of reform has it given?
Gov. Tilden has pursued the canal frauds
in New York. If that proves the Demo
cratic party of the country to be a reform
party, how much more do Mr. Bristow's
and Mr. Jewell's dealings with corruption
and irregularity prove the National Re
publican party to be one of reform? Re
form is the Democratic cry, but Demo
cratic action in the Democratic States doe3
not justify it. In Ohio, where Uie Cin
cinnati Commercial says there is not a con
siderable town that has not been for some
time in the possession ot the Democracy,
the same paper adds that it has not been
able, even from a commanding position
on the fence, to see any reform. 44 On the
contrary, things that were bad under Re
publican rule have grown worse uuder
Democratic rule."
. . . Mr. Morton's speech is valuable
for reminding the country that the reunion
of a people rent for so long a time and by
so fundamental differences is not to be
effected by shutting our eyes and " talking
pleasantly." Harper's Weekly.
tW The Liberal Republicans of Ohi
those who went into the Cincinnati Con
vention for the purposes of reform and
were sold out there by the Gratz Brown
and Greeley combination are now work
ing cordially and heartily !' defeat the
Democracy in that Suite. Not a reformer
among them is so lcwildered ns to sup-
pose that political reform has anything to
hope for, even negatively, from that
source. Mr. F. W. Bird did not agree
with them nt Cincinnati, and he dics not
agree with them now. What be does ex
pect from the triumph of such a crowd as
Gov. Allen and Sam Cary have after
them it would be hard to tell; but in a
letter to the Tribune, bewailing the wick
edness of the party in power and despair
ing of a new one, he "welcomes the
omens of Democratic success !" Such is
life. Boston Advertiser.
Punishment of Fraud.
Ilere is the answer the President sends
to those who impudently assert that he
shields the perpetrators of fraud in office:
To the Secretary of the Trewnry:
iscr. nn tf'iury man e'caps tj it ran be onoxaed.
lit specially vigilant, ami instruct thane engaged in
(he prosecution of fraud to be against all uho in
sinuate that they have high influence to protect
them, Ao perianal consideration should stand in
the way of performing public duty.
V. 9. Grant.
This is not only a direction to one of the
members of the Cabinet to prosecute those
guilty of whisky frauds and customs frauds
to the last verge of the power of the law,
but it is a solemn declaration that "no per
sonal consideration should stand in the way
of performing public duty." It is a sufli
cicnt answer to the impertinence of Mr.
Welsh, of Philadelphia, who makes
charges against a Cabinet officer, and
therefore, without proving or attempting
flk prove them and without their having
lcen proven, assumes because the Presi
dent docs not remove such officer that he
in conniving at fraud in the public service.
It is a sufficient answer to the so-called in
dependent press, which publishes the un
supported charges of irresponsible persons
against public officials, assumes them to
be true, and thereupon demands the in
stant removal of such officials. President
Grant says: "Let no guilty man escape
if it can be avoided." All the dissatisfied
newspapers have to do is to point out the
"guilty man" and prove hint "guilty."
The detractors of Secretary Delano assert
that the President shields him from the
effects of his alleged irregularities in office.
But the President says to every officer
charged with the enforcement of the laws:
" Be specially vigilant, and instruct Uiose
engaged in the prosecution of fraud to be
against all who insinuate that they have hirh
influence to protect them."
Here is the warrant to those who believe
Secretary Delano guilty of misfeasance or
malfeasance in office for producing every
particle of evidence they hold or can pro
cure bearing upon the fact. Prove your
charges," says the President, " and no
power in high places shall stand between
you and the reformation of the public
service." But the Chief Executive who
proposes to punish to the uttermost every
delinquent official can only strike after
proof. It would be rank injustice to allow
reputations to be shattered by the breath
of mere rumor. The public official would
seem to be entitled to as much considera
tion as the prisoner in the dock, entitled
to confront his accusers and to demand
the proof of their charges. The brief let
ter of the President is a very conclusive
reply to hundreds of newspaper articles
bascl upon the false assumption that he is
disposed to shield corrupt and inefficient
officials from the effects of their misdeeds.
There is no evidence that he has done so,
and now we have his solemn declaration
that no "high influence," be it Cabinet or
Congressional, shall protect corrupt offi
cials from swift and adequate punishment

The Georgia Scare.
A Washington special of Aug. 21 to the
Chicago Tribune says:
The best information here concerning
the alleged negro insurrection in Georgia
i3 that it is a scare for political effect.
The dispatches received here furnish no
proof of any intention to massacre. The
Department of Justice has not yet received
information from the United States Mar
shal, w ho is reported to be near the scene
of the alleged insurrection. The following
dispatch has been received here from a re
sponsible Republican source :
Atlanta, Oa., Ang. 20.
The alleged insurrection thus fur has
amounted to nothing. On the other hand,
the White-Leaguers and Ku-Klux have made
it an occasion to persecute the colored pop
ulation of Washington and Jefferson Coun
ties, nnd are continually arresting and
throwing Into prison innocent and harmless
persons who are without weapons and in a
completely defenseless utnte.
It is reported that Harris has been ar
rested, and that hi9 confession implicates
many prominent colored politicians in the
so-called conspiracy. It is well known here
that these reports come directly from the
White-Leaguers, who are using every effort
within their power to arouse the indigna
tion of the white population of the dis
turbed sections, and tmis consummate a
petty war of the races. The negroes have
been denied their rights for some time
past particularly the right of holding pub
lic meetings and they have simply at
tempted to secure this right by going to
their meetings in strong squads, and in some
instances bearing nnns for self-protection.
At present everything is said to be quiet on
the field of insurrection, save now and then
an arrest of some supposed dangerous party,
and the thrusting of the same, under pro
test and without hearing, into the county
dungeons, to wait there for trial and pun
ishment or release.
Latest and most reliable figures
from the North Carolina election show
that the Republicans carried the State by a
majority of over 15,000 on the popular
vote, giving a Republican gain of about
30,000 over the vote of last year. In the
Constitutional Convention the numbers
stand: Democrats, 5'J; Republicans, 58;
Independents, 3, of whom two will vote
with the liepublicans, and, with the aid
of others whose contests for seats will
probably be successful as against their
Democratic opponents, it is regarded as
certain that the Republicans will have a
clear majority in the convention. Chicago
Tribune, Aug. 23.
137" If Gov. Tilden has not basely slan
dered the party to which he owes his own
political preferment, that party is made up
and led by men totally unworthy of the
confidence of the people they have be
trayed and robbed. If Gov. Tilden is
mistaken in all this if these charges are
merely prompted by a desire to make po
litical capital at the expense of the other
leaders of the Democracy then that party
has elevated to the highest place in its
gift in this State an arrant old humbug,
who is trying to elevate himself by false
pretenses. Let Gov. Tilden and his Dem
ocratic friends settle it between themselves.

Soaring' and Sailing of Birds.
Mr. Belt, describing the movement of a
pair of black vultures sailingon the wind,
says : " Like all birds that soar, both over
sea and land, when it is calm the vultures
are obliged to flap their wings when they
fly; but when a breeze is blowing they are
able to use their specific gravity as a ful
crum, by means of which they present
their Inxlies and outstretched wings and
tails at various angles to the wind and lit
erally sail. How often when becalmed
on southern seas, when not a breath of air
was stirring, have I seen the albatross, the
petrel and the cape-pigeon resting on the
water, or rising with difficulty, and only
by the constant action of their long wings
able to fly at all! But when a breeze
sprang up'they were all life and motion,
wheeling in graceful circles, now present
ing one side, now the other, to view, de
scending rapidly with the wind, and so
gaining velocity to turn and rise up again
against it. Then, as the breeze freshened
to a gale, the petrels darted about, . . .
poising themselves upon the wind with as
little effort as a man balances himself
upon his feet."
ZW It has a very familiar sound, that
report of the discovery of a negro con
spiracy in Georgia to kill all the whites
in three or four counties with " axes, hoes
and pitchforks" formidable weapons,
truly, against the seven-shooters, one or
two of which the average Georgian regards
as indispensable as his pantaloons. Of
course this report is followed by the intel
ligence that a number of negroes have
been captured, and that " it is feared that
the whites will not await the process of
law, but will lynch the prisoners." In
due season we may expect the information
that the negroes have leen killed. It is
the same old story. When a lot of ex
rebels feel that they can't get along any
longer without the excitement of killing a
few negroes, we always hear first of a dark
plot on the part of the negroes to massacre
whites. Then, of course, the whites only
slaughter the-negroes in self-defense. But
there is a singular law of periodicity about
this negro-killing propensity. It always
seizes the gallant Southern just before
elections, and it has the effect of impress
ing upon the surviving negroes in the
neighborhood that it will be wholesome
for them to keep away from the ballot-box.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Gazette has taken the pains to cast up the
accounts ot defalcations and rascalities of
State and county officials in Ohio since
1850. If he has been accurate in his cal
culations the people have lost$;,280,0o1.21
through the dishonesty of Democrats, and
only $30,000 by Republican malfeasance.
The comparison is suggestive.

Ther hez bin a heeD uv trouble crowdid
Into the seventy yeera that 1 hev lived onto
this earth probably more than hez fallen to
the lot uv any one man now livin. Them ez
hez seen as much trouble ez I hev all died
under it. I live becoz uv a mind that laffs at
ruis forenoon and defies fate. And, besides, I
hev suthin to live for. So long ez thcr's a
barl uv whisky attainable and a Dimekratic
Farty I pcrpose to exist. When they go out
shel probably succum.
I am hevin my regler amount uv trouble
now. Jest ez soon ez the day come for the
Dimekratic State Convenshun at Columbus,
I went over to Pcttuses Corners, in Ohio, to
assist in rganizen that county for the en
sooin eleckshun, for I realized the fact thet
ez Ohio goes this fall so the next Prcsi
denshal cleekshun goes, and that the party
calls upon every Dimckrat to do his whole
duty. For me success next yeer iz a neces
sity. That postoffis at the Corners must be
mine then, if ever. Failyoor would break
mv heart.
Pcttuses Corners Is the most Dimckratic
uv all the villages in Southern Ohio. It hez
a populashen uv say 500, wich supports six
prosprons groserics, two good bars at tav
erns and a small skool house, wich hez never
bin finished, and in wich the Methodists
hold their mectins. It is a very small tkool
bouse, but it is large cnufl" for the mectins
on Sunday. The inhabitants mostly devote
theirsclves to politics and the groseries. The
county oflishls pay for the likker uv the rest
uv the citizens, wich makes it a soft thing
all around.
Uv course every Dimekrat in the county is
born with the expectashen uv, some day,
holdin a county otlis. To be Infirmary Di
rector is glory to be County Tresrer is the
summit uv earthly grandyer. Them ez is
successful start in cz Infirmary Director,
then they git to be County Commishner,
then theLegislachcr, then Sheriff. At this
pint most uv em goes hence with delirium
tremens. Occasionally one whose stumiek
is glass-lined and backt up with fire-brick
goes on to be Auditor and Tresrer, but them
is exceptions. To go the w hole string a tre
menjus constitushun is nessary.
Ther ain't no money in holdin oflls ther,
for it costs the entire salary the first year to
sekoor the cleekshun, and the entire salary
and a mortgage on yoor farm every yeer
thereafter to keep it; but then an oflishl
can't treat a voter without drinkin likewise,
so he hez a good time ef he does rooin his
elf. Natcrally, however, some uv them make
theirsclves good by an occcasional defalca
shen and by spckclatin in county improve
ments; but oppertoonities is limited in the
county, and it wont do ez a reliance.
I arrived at Pcttuses the nite uv the day
uv the convenshun and wuz welcomed with
open arms. I got the Dimocrisy together to
ratify the nominashens that we mite go into
the campaue with that enthoosiasm which
is necessary to success. We waited for the
nominashens impatiently, and finally they
came:
for Governor William Allen
For Lieutenant - Governor Samyooel F.
Cary.
"Three cheers," I sung out, "for Allen
and Cary!"
The cheers wuz given with a will. The
Dimokrisy uv l'ettus' Corners are excellent
at cheerin.
The platform adopted by the convention
hadn't come to hand, but I didn't care. I
Fereeeded to draft a resolooshen or two, for
knowd the candidates so well I wuz so
well posted cz to their antecedents and ut
terances that I felt perfectly certain wat the
Flatforin wuz on wich they wuz placed, and
wrote the rcsolooshcns accordin. The fol
lcrin wuz the first:
Eesolred, That it is the yoonanimons expresbnn
bt tlie Dimocrisy ot Pet fuses Corners that in noin
inntin for Uovernor Willyum Allen, the elokcnt
champion uv hard-money, the Diniocratic State
Oonvensbnn merit" the ratitood not only nv the
Dimocrisy uv the Yoonited States, but uv every
honest man. That his rinijin denunshinshen uv
dirty ratr-money. and his niitiuldin uv the old Dimo
cr.itic idea uv hard money, will, in the turner ez in
the past, be potent for the pcrteckj-hun uv a loug
sullerin and oppreest people.
"My friends," sed 1, drawin myself up so
ez to resemble Dan'I Webster ez much cz
possible, " before yoo take a vote on this
resolooshen I hev u word to say. Willyum
Allen, Olc Hill Allen, honest Ole Bill Allen,
is cmfatikally the peoples friend. He is the
nateral enemy uv monopolists, uv banks and
bankers, and the most inveterate, vindictive,
deadly enemy uv this fiood uv rotten paper
money wich hez so long afflicted the kentry
and blited its prosperity. Honest Ole Bill
Allen hez from his infancy denounst paper
money ez the insidious foe uv the workin
man, the destroyer uv the farmer and the op-
FTcssive weapon uv the bloated aristocrat,
n the Senit and on the stump, by voice and
pen, Honest True Ole Bill Allen hez de
mandid that gold, hard, honest gold, only,
shood be considered money, and that the
dirty, filthy rag-money is hood by a Black
Kepublican CongrU be stampt out. That
demand he renoos to-day that demand a
Dimckratic btate Convenshun hez made by
nominatin him, and let us, the Dimocrisy of
Pcttuses Corners, nnilin our kulors, 4 Ilard
money forever, to the mast, pass this reso
looshen." The speech fecht 'em, and the resolooshen
wuz passed with sieh empliusis ez I never
seed. Then three rousin' cheers wuz given
for Honest Ole Bill Allen, the friend uv the
people nnd the hope uv the country the uu
daunted, unpurchisable friend uv hard
money, and the denouneer uv rag-money in
watever shape it come.
So far so good. They passed this resoloo
shen easily, for ez none uv 'em ever had any
money they never wuz pertikeler cz to wat
pcrtikcler kind they endorsed, but the next
step wuz reely adelikit one. I lied knowd
Sam Cary for yeers, and knowd him ez the
very hed and front uv the temperance party
uv the State. I knowed he w uz a Son uv
Temperance and the most intolerable prohi
bishinist the State tied ever bin cust with. I
hed myself lieerd him denounce the likker
seller cz only fit to be hung, and it hed bin
my pleasin dooty to help rotten-egg him on
several occashens when he wuz in a kin rabid
temperance speeches. Hence I coodent
quite understand why he wuz put upon the
tikkit. But I persoomed that our leaders
had determined on a bold stroke to ketch
the temprance vote, relyin on the known
caracter uv the party to hold the whisky
vote. So to give Samyool a send-off I inter
doost this resolooshen:
Resolved, That the Dimocrisy nv Pettnsseg
Corners endorse the noniinashnn nv Samyooel
Cnry heartily, and likewise the principle he hez
so long and ably advokatcd. Thut the likker
traffic is a evil wich shood be mitigated and tluelly
eradicntid.
There wuz sum murmurin at this, but I
told em it wuz no yoose to murmur; that
we hed to carry the State, and that the end
justified the means. Anil they passed it with
three cheers for Cary and prohibishen.
Then we adjourned to the various groser
ies and the candidates worked up a great
deal uv Dimckratic enthoosiasm.
The next mornin we assembled at Splid
den's grosery to get the Cinsinnati papers
with the full pcrceedins uv the couvenshun,
wich wen they arrived I read.
44 Why this patents uv face and this ghast
ly bloonis uv nose?" demanded the Sheriff.
44 Kun!" I exclaimed, 44 run for your lives.
Stop the Battle Ax uv Freedom (wich wuz
the Dimekratic paper uv Pettus' Corners)
from gittin out the pcrceedins uv last nite's
ratification ineetin."
It wuz too late; the editor hed showd en
terprise for just wunst in his life, and hed
the paper out with the pcrceedins in full,
and a stunnin editorial eudor.-in the resoloo
shens. 44 Wat is the matter?" exclaimed the entire
crowd, seein that suthin uncommon moved
me.
44 Gentlemen, we hev made a mistake," I
rcmarkt, with as much camnis ez I eood
command. 44 The Dimckratic State Conven
shun hez gone and put ole Bill Allen on a
rag-money platform, and Samyooel Cary on
a whisky platform. I will never trust a Dim
ekrat's record agin."
There wuz only one thing to do. The Dim
ekratic mind is flexible and vcrsateel. We
merely met agin that nite and passed the rite
rcsolooshcns "endorsin' Allen and Cary and
the platform on wich the Convenshun put
'em; and we passed 'em with jist ez much
enthoosiasm ez we did them uv the perceed
in' evenin', and everything is serene and har
monious agin.
I shel stay in this county and organize the
party thoroughly before goin' to my old Ken

A sew order, requiring the conductors
on the Pennsylvania Railroad to wear
sachels in which all the company's prop
erty in possession of the conductor is to
be carried about while he is on duty, went
into effect the other day. The sachel is
suspended on the right hip, over the cloth
ing, by a broad band passing over the left
shoulder. As might be supposed, this
new arrangement meets with great disfa
vor among the conductors, who consider
that it implies dishonesty on their part.
The sachels will, no doubt, be very un
comfortable things to carry in hot weath
er. Accompanying the sachels are very
explicit orders, one of which is that at
the tickets taken up are to be dropped
through an aperture just large enough to
admit them into a compartment which is
locked, and the key kept at each end
of the road to unlock it. It is understood
also that the conductors will be required
to wear a uniform in w hich there are not
any pockets whatever
The Recent Accident at Niagara Falls, j
Ose of the most deplorable of the many
accidents of which the Falls of Niagara
have been the scene took place a few days
ago. The particulars of the catastrophe
arc given as follows in the Niagara Falls
llegistcri
A party consisting of Mr. Ethcllert Par
sons and Miss Lottie C.Philpott, Mr.Wm.
A. Philpott, Jr., and wife, Miss Ilattie
Fields, of Buffalo, and Mr. Charles II.
Philpott started for the Cave of Uie Winds
about five o'clock. They chose this time
because at no other hour of the day can
the rainbow be seen in such perfection.
As they were all thoroughly familiar with
the place, and had made repeated trips
through the cave in former years, they de
clined a guide and started down the Bid
die Stairway. They followed the usual
pathway until they reached the extreme
eastern end of the railing, when they
clambered out upon the ncks immediately
in front of the cave. William Philpott
and bis wife seated themselves on the
rocks, while the other four ventured out
still further and descended to a stream
which llows down over the rocks
in front and a little to the right
of the cave. Here they remained for
some time amusing themselves in the
water, which brawls over the rocks
and rushes through the crevices with
great force. Finally Miss Lottie went
still further down the river and entered an
eddy, which, however, was partially pro
tected by encircling bowlders. Here she
played in the water, which at this place
affords an excellent current bath, ana was
soon rejoined by her three other friends.
Mr Parsons entered the water with her,
and while he was getting a foothold, that
he might guard against any possible acci
dent, she slipped. He had hold of her
hand, and, as she fell, he caught her and
together they were swept into the current,
which lorc them down about thirty feet
toward the river. Those on the rocks rc
jKjrt that M iss Lottie was next seen stand
ing up in the water and leaning against a
large rock. They were now in a powerful
current and seemed to be making en
deavors to save one another. Her posi
tion was the more precarious, since the
slightest movement either way would ex
pose her to the full fury of the water, and
once fairly in the power of the current all
hope of escape would be ended. Mr.
Parsons, from his position, could have
easily saved himself, but, thinking
that he could rescue her, he seized
her and tried to reach the rock above
them. Though he battled with the cur
rent with the strength despair alone can
give, they loth were swept from their
vantage ground on the rock and whirled
into tlie maddening flood below. Twice
they disappeared below the surface. By
this time they had been carried well out
into the river, and to their agonized
friends on shore they appeared to be
standing on rocks about eight rods or so
from the edge of the river. To one un
acquainted with the great depth of the
river and the tremendous force of the
under-current it seemed that they had at
last found a place of safety, and might
yet be rescued. But the treacherous cur
rent was bearing them rapidly down the
river to the death which was now inevita
ble. All his efforts were of no avail; the
fatal current separated them, and Miss
Lottie, deprived of the strong protecting
arm that before upheld her. disappeared
with hands raised despairingly above her
head. Mr. Parsons must have seen her
go under the w ater, but he still made
brave efforts to preserve his own life.
From the shore he was seen struggling
in an aimless way to keep his
bead alxrvc water. A thick cloud
of spray intervened for a moment lietwecn
the drowning man and the friends who
were powerless to lend him aid, and when
it disappeared Parsons was gone, and the
cruel river swept on as though this tragedy
had not been. A spectator perched alove
on Luna Island stated that not more than
five minutes elapsed from the time they
were swept into the river and the mo
ment when they finally disappeared be
neath the waters. The spot where they
were last seen is about one-third the way
across, and directly in front of the Ameri

years of age, and the only daughter of Mr.
Wm. Philpott, an old and highly respect
able resident of the Falls. She was re
spected by all who knew her for her many
estimable qualities. Her terribly sad and
sudden death has cast a deep gloom over
the community in which she lived. Ethel
bert Parsons was twenty-nine years of
age, and the son of Horatio A. Parsons,
Esq., of La Salic. He possessed a char

not been recovered.
English Justice.
A kecent English case of extreme cru
elty, passing under the guise of justice, has
lieen much commented on in the papers
on both sides of the Atlantic. There
seemed to be something peculiarly revolt.
ing in the circumstance that a little girl of
thirteen, who had plucked a geranium
bud in an alms-house garden, should be
sentenced to imprisonment for a fortnight
in jail, and for four years longer in a penal
institution all too mildly termed 44 reforma
tory." But, as a matter of fact, severe sen
tences such as this arc by no means rarely
pronounced from the benches occupied
by the 44 unpaid magistracy" of England.
Justice, in the hands of the gentleman
w ho are called upon to administer punish
ment to petty offcaders in the English ru
ral districts, is especially stern with those
who in any way invade the sacred rights
of 44 property." Theft or trespass, in their
eyes, is too apt to be regarded ns worse
than wife-beating or slander, than perjury
or murderous assault. Such sentences as
that accorded to poor little Sarah Chandler
are far from being as uncommon as the
conspicuousncss of her case would imply.
The very same clergyman who sought, in
his capacity as a magistrate, to brand her
for life as a "jail-bird" becausesheplucked
a flower, sentenced, not long ago, a
small lny scarcely out of his pin
afores to prison for a month localise
he scraped the leavings of a discard
ed tobacco-cask and sold his scraps for a
half-penny; and condemned a young servant-girl
to six weeks in jail for putting
some photographs, which she found in a
waste-paper basket in the house where
she served, into her pocket to show
to some friends. Not long ago sixteen
fishermen and women, living on the
Northumbrian coast, were cast into jail
for a month for picking up mussels on the
shore with which to bait their hooks. It
was an audacious assault upon the property-rights
of the 'Squire whose estates
ran to the water's edge; and the clergymen
and 'Squires who administer the law in
that region without pay could not let
the flagrant defiance of the rights of
property pass. In Essex three very repu
table and not disorderly lads, aged about
sixteen, sallied out for an afternoon walk.
In crossing the fields they came to a
brook; a grassy knoll on its banks
tempted them, and they threw themselves
upon it and began to read some books
they had brought with them. Suddenly
up" rode the owner of the field on horse
back, and roughly demanded their names.
Soon after they had returned home they
were taken in charge by a policeman,
brought before the magistrate, ac
cused of trespass and heavily fined.
A little girl of thirteen was recently
condemned at Dorchester to twenty-one
da3s' imprisonment at 44 hard labor," and
five years in a reformatory, for stealing an
earthen milk-jug. It turned out that the
jug, which was cracked, had been given
to the girl without authority by a servant.
The supposed thief, too, was ascertained to
have the best character for honesty. Ap

I. G. S., in the New YorkTVt&tfiAfftvcs
these directions for taking leaf and flower
prints : Oil a piece of white paper on one
side and smoke that side over a lamp till
quite black. Place the under side of the
leaf on the black surface, and press it
down evenly with the lingers. Then take
up the leaf and put the black, oiled side on
the page of a book made punosely and
press it for a few minutes, not forgetting
to put a piece of paper over it to keep the
opposite page from being smutted. Then
remove the green leaf and you will have an
impression left as beautiful as an engrav

to the Scientific American, says, in reply
to the question of a correspondent wheth
er there is any use for bed-bugs, that he Is
reminded of an accidental experiment he
made of putting a numtier of nice fat bed
bugs in a saturated solution of nitrate of
potash in water, with this result: Exposed
to the air for several days, in an open ves
sel, there was no apparent change in the
bugs ; but there was in the odor, for now
it was as delicate and delicious as before
it was rank and disgusting. 1 fo doubt the
odorous principle could be easily sepa
rated, perhaps by digesting with alcohol
or ether, ami, if neatly bottled and labeled,
would yield a large profit to practical per
fumers. The odor is unlike that of any
other perfume I have ever smelt, and no
one would suspect its low origin. This is
one use for tlie cimcx; there may be others.
The Food of Swine.
If there is any one thing in rural prac
tice which needs reforming more than an
other it is the manner of raising and feed
ing swine. From the time they are large
enough to eat they are offered all manner
of refuse about the place, such as rank
weeds, filthy slops, spoiled vegetables and
meats, dead fowls, etc. They are allowed
to rummage the dungyard and glean the
refuse of food in the fa?ces of cattle and
horses, on tlie ground of economy. But
we imagine that the quantity of food saved
in this w ay is very insignificant not to
exceed the value of a bushel of shelled
corn a year among the whole stock on an
ordinary-sized farm. The objections to
the practice of keeping swine in this way
arc so serious, however, that the reasons
in favor of it have no force at all. The
origin of trichinosis in swine may Ik; al
ways traced to the consumption of vile
stuffs in their fofnl or to being housed and
yarded amidst filth and foul air. Everr
few months the press announces a cac of
trichina? in an individual or a whole fam
ily, with all the horrible details and suf
ferings which attend the parasitic attack.
Only lately some new cases are reported
here in the West which are alarming.
We are quite sure that every farmer, and
every one who feeds and fattens a pig,
will only need to have their attention
called to so important and serious a mat
ter to secure a complete reform in the
practice of feeding an animal which will
take whatever is offered to it and will live
in the most filthy holes and yards. On the
farm the swine should have clover past
ure, and for swill only milk and corn
meal, no dish-water or" meat scraps from
the table, as these are sure to putrify and
poison the mass in the barrel or tank.
Pure water with a little meal added is
preferable. The dishwater may go to the
compost heap and the scraps from the
table to the poultry while they arc fresh.
Spoiled meats should be buried or mixed
with composted materials; they should
never be given to any domestic animal.
Large numbers ot swine arc frequently
confined in small quarters, with very little
regard to cleanliness or pure air. Of
course, some of them will lose appetite
the first sign of derangement ot the organs
of nutrition and assimilation. They do
not thrive, but they arc kept along till
slaughtering-time and arc dressed and
packed among the lot. Such animals are
extremely liable to be infested with trichi
na? and other parasites, and those who con
sume them as food expose themselves to
sickness, diseases of a lingering nature
and to death in a most horrible form.
Interests, therefore, as dear as health and
life require a thorough reform in keeping
and feeding swine. Let their food be as
Eure as that which other animals consume,
ct them be kept in clean quarters and
have pure air. Let diseased or unthrifty
animals be separated from those in health,
and we may have no fear of trichinosis
among either swino or human beings.
Detroit Tribune.
The Culture of encumbers.
The common method among farmers in
planting cucumber, melon and squash
seeds is to dig a deep hole, partially fill
with barn-yard manure, pile tlie dirt on
this, forming a hill four to six inches
alyove the surface, and plant on that. All
this is misdirected and worse than useless
lalor. Cucumbers and melons enjoy rich
soil, but they do not want the richness
buried so deeply in the ground that their
roots cannot reach it until afler midsum
mer. They do not do so w ell on an ele
vated seedbed as on level ground, and if
good drainage were afforded we should pre
fer to plant the seeds rather below than
above the level of the surrounding sur
face, that rains might run toward the
plarjjt rather than from it. The large
amount of heating manure licncath the
hill makes the surface dry all the more
rapidly, and this is especially true when
it is rounded up several inches higher
than the adjoining ground. Seeds thus
planted may do well very early in the
spring, but will wither and dry out by mid
summer. Our own experience has
been that manure should be well
composted, thoroughly mixed with
the soil to the depth of four or
five inches, and the seed-bed kept as
near the level of the ground as possible.
For late cucumbers and melons we have
often planted w ithout using any manure,
relying on applications of liquid manure
after the plants came p. Solid manure
even in contact with the roots cannot help
the plant unless there is water enough to
make some parts soluble, and sometimes
we shall have two or three weeks in mid
summer without any rain. In such cases
vines quickly dry up and become an easy
prey to insect enemies. Tlie best way to
manure melons or other vines is by ma
nure water, made strong and placed in di
rect contact with the roots. We have never
known it to be strong enough to injure the
plants, and it always gave a luxuriance of
growth that would do any one good to be
hold. It can be thrown directly over the
vines, drenching them and soaking down
to the roots ; but a much better w ay is to
carefully remove the surface soil from
around the roots, pour in tlie manure
w ater, and after it has soaked in the ground
replace the surface soil, which thus acts
as a mulch. This plan secures the bene
fit of hoeing and manuring at the same
time. Or deep holes can be punched
into the soil with a hoe-handle and
manure water turned into these until they
are filled. The water and manure will
spread in every direction and the roots
wUl speedily reach their food. This is an
excellent plan where unrotted stable ma
nure ha been buried under a hill early in
the season and is now probably suffering
from lack of moisture. The manure water
will set the mass to heating and at the
same time i'ufnisli sufficient moisture for
the roots, causing a most vigorous growth.
In all cases water for plants should be as
warm as the air at the time, and considera
bly warmer would le still better. On no
account should tender plants le drenched
at any time with water newly-drawn from
deep wells or cold cisterns and springs.
If you use such water let it stand in the
sun at least one day to become warm as
possible before applying. Many people
drench their melon vines with cold water
from the well ; the ground is packed hard
by the water poured on it, the plants are
chilled, turn sickly and die, and then the
wonder is that they do not do well. Bet
ter let your vines go with no watering than
give them such treatment as this. Rural

A Successful Farmer.
We have a German farmer in this ncigh
ltorhood who sets us all a good example.
He commenced life as a hired man. He
has now one of the best farms in the tow n,
and is adding acre to acre. Whatever he
dx's is done well. He never seems to be
in a huny. But he commences to plow in
the spring before some of us begin to think
alxmt getting the plows ready, and he has
ten or twenty acres of barley sown before
some of us have plowed a lurrow. He is
always ahead. Everything is in its place;
everything in good repair and ready for
use at a moment's notice. His land is
getting cleaner every year and I was go
ing to say richer, but! am not so sure on
this latter point. I have sometimes
thought be was running his land rather
hard. But there is certainly no diminu
tion in the crops. His farm would sell for
50 per cent more than he paid for it, while
other farms have not increased in value.
The secret of success, in his case, is first
in the man himself in his industry,
sobriety and good judgment. And in the
next place I think it is due principally to
the fact that he plows early, and plows
late, and plows well, and plows often ; and
he uses the harrow and the roller until his
soil is mellow and in good order for the
seed. Then he cultivates his corn and po
tatoes and beans the moment he can see
the rows, and he sutlers not a weed to
grow and go to seed. I ought to add that
he has five energetic sons to help him, and
while he hires little or no labor there is a
large amount of work done on the farm.
In fact, say w hat you will, there is, never
has been, and never will be, good fanning
without the expenditure of considerable
labor. "I have always employed a good
many men," said John Johnston, and all
really successful farmers, I think, would
Ik; obliged to say the same thing. " Walks

Top-Dressinar Meadows with
yard Manure.
Barn-
Late autumn is always the better period
to top-dress meadows, for the reason that
near the close of the growing seasonal!
fertilizing material that comes from de
caying vegetation is then tending down
ward into the earth. Hence manure
spread on the surface late in the fall will
not be lost by evaporation to half the ex
tent that the fertilizing elements will dis
appear if spread in the spring or in the
summer. But this manure should be
rotten thoroughly decomposed. Then
there will be no heat to throw oil the
strength. Fermentation, which is well in
the ground, is bad outside of it. But even
in a raw state, drawn from the stable, ma
nure, when closely applied to the surface,
has its benefit not so immediate. Fer
mentation must be gone through with be
fore the manure is plant food; and the
acrid nature of some manures will hurt
grass and grain and impart a raw influ
ence to the soil. To tojulrcss meadows
successfully a very important thing is re
quired a thing that is too much neglect
ed. It is to pulverize the manure ami get
it down on the ground. To leave the ma
nure in heaps is of but little use. There
is sonic strength the ground gets, but the
lumps are an obstruction. This is a bad
way, and should be discountenanced se
verely. Close to the ground, hugging it,
becoming part of it this is what is
wanted. Then the soil, by its at
traction, will get the strength. The
rains will carry the fertilizing ele
ments down at once. Nothing can be
better than to bike good harv ard manure,
composted with muck or clay, and, when
thoroughly mixed and decomposed, apply
to the soil close to the ground, finely and
evimly distributed. This gives our mead
ows what scarce any other treatment can
reach a thick, excellent coat of grass.
Repeated, this coat can be continued; and
by and by, when it is wished to turn it
down, there is nothing Intter. Corn will
grow here if anywhere. We have known
it to reach, in large lots, over eighty bush
els to the acre, when otherwise it would
yield but half that amount. A generous
top-dressing with barnyard manure has a
tendency to keep tue ground moist. But
the main points tho reliable, the inior-
tant are its effects upon meadows, upon
grain and upon seeding. The e fleet of all
this cannot be questioned. It is only said
that some of the strength of the manure
will escape. This looks reasonable. There
is little doubt but that some of the strength
is lost. There is also little doubt had this
manure been covered the strength would
have been saved. This is all a plausible
theory; nay, it is fact.
When barnyard manure is scarce it will
pay to sow bone dust on almost any
meadow. We have lost all faith in most
other commercial fertilizers. But swin
dlers cannot adulterate lonc dust so read
ily as tlie phosphates. N. Y. Herald.
A method of coating iron with copper
so as to protect the former from the action
of sea water and the. like is described in
the Deutsche Illnst.Zeitung. The iron, it ap
pears, is first cleaned and rendered r
fectly blight by means of acid and then
immersed in a bath of melted copper,
w hich is maintained at a very high tem
perature, so that it not only covers the
iron but lK'cnmes incorporated with it.
Iron coppered in this way can, it is said,
be hammered and rolled w ithout the t op
per tearing or peeling off, and specimens
left in contact w ith sea water for a period
of nine months have been found unat
tacked and capable f being hammered
and rolled out like new metal. Iron
plates covered with copper in this way
are claimed to possess two important ad
vantages over pure copper plates, namely:
they cost less and are harder and stronger.
There is also a great advantage in using
coppered iron wire for telegraph lines in
stead of galvanized iron.
