Initiation
The editor of a western paper
entered the Grange while under the
influence of "corn juice," and pub
lishes the following account of his
initiation, after he had gotten over
his comatose condition :
On being brought into the
ante-room of the lodge (Green
grocer Temnle,Xo. 101) r was told
thfft I had been balloted for and ac
cepted. Mv informant, who was
fcecurclv masked by what I after
ward learned was a large burdock
leaf, jierfomted with holes for the
eyes, told me that if I valued my
life ft would be neces-arv for me to
strip. As I did consider that of
con-ddrable worth to me, and as he
italicized his wishes by carelessly
playing with a seven-shooter, I with
drew from my garments with eager
ness. My masked friend then fur
nished me with the regalia of the
first degree called "The Festive
Plowboy" which consisted merel3
of one large cabbage leaf attached
to a waistband of potato vines. In
this airy costume I was conducted
to the door, where my companion
gave three distinct raps. (I was
securely blindfolded by binding a
slice of rutabaga over each eye.)
A sepulchral voice from within
asked : "Who comes ?"
My guide answered, "A youthful
agrieulturit, who desires to become
a Granger."
Sepulchral voice. Have you look
ed him carefully over?
Guide. I have, noble gatekeeper.
Sepulchral voice. Do you find
any agricultural marks about his
person ?
Guide. I do.
Sepulchral voice. "What are
they?
Guide. The candidate has caroty
hair, reddish whiskers, and a turn
up nose.
Sepulchral voice. 'Tis well. "Why
do you dc-ire to become a Granger?
Guide, (answering for candidate).
That I may be thereby the better
enabled to harrow up the feelings of
the rascally politicians.
Sepulchral voice. You will bring
in the candidate. My worthy strip
ling, as you cannot see, I will cause
you to feel that you are received at
the door on the three paints of a
pitchfork, piercing the region of the
-stomach, which is to teach you the
three great virtues faith, hope, and
charity faith in yourself, hope for
cheaper farm machinery, and char
ity for the lightning-rod peddler.
You will now be harnessed, and in
representation of the hore, Pegasus,
will be tested as to endurance and
wind.
The candidate is here attached to
a small imitation plow by means of
a hemper harness. A dried pump
kin vine is put in his mouth for a
bit and a bridle ; he is made to get
down on all fours ; the guide seizes
the bridle, and, urged on by a
Granger armed with a Canada
thi-tle, whfch ho vigorously applies
at the terminus of the spine, the
candidate is galloped three times
around the room. "While making
the circuit the members arise and
miik:
Get up andilus. you bully boy
Who wouldn't be a Grsnjei?
If the tliiitle's p-ick don't cause you jor,
To feeling you must be estranged, uli!
Aftor this violent exercise he is
rubbed dry with carn-eorb?, bees
waxed where thistled, and brought
upstanding before the Great Chief
the Mostyorshipful Pumpkin
Head, "
-"Most "Worshipful Pumpkin Head.
Why do you desire to become Gran
ger? Candidate, (answering for hira
self.J That I may learn to extin
guish sewing-machine agents.
Most orshipful Pumpkin Head,
nave your hands been hardenod
with toil?
Candidate. "Not extensively; but
then lam not running for ofifce.
Most Worshipful Pumpkin Head.
'Tis well, for our lodges contain sev
eral who are supposed to be ready to
sacrlfico themselves for the good of
their constituents. Do you foel
pretty smart this evening?
Candidate. Yes; where the bus
tle goes on.
Most Worshipful Pumpkin Head,
(savagely). Give mo a chaw of to
backer! Caudidate, searching himself
thoroughly, but as there is no place
about him to stick a pocket, tries to
explain, but the Most Worshipful
Pumpkin Head interrupts him
with
"Never mind, my dear voung
friend I am well aware tliat in
your present condition you can no
more furnish your friends with the
weed than Adam could be comfor
table in a plug hat and tight boots.
It is merely to teach you tho great
lesson of economy doing to others
as you'd like to have them do to
you. You will now bo conducted to
the Most Eminent Squash Producer,
who will teach you the grand hail
ing sign of distress. This sign, my
worthy brother, will insure you
against many of the ills of the agri
culturistamong others, against
drought, and being bit by the fero
cious grasshopper.
The candidate is now conducted to
the Most Eminent Squash Pro
ducer, who thus Bays: "My wor
thy brother, I will now invest you
with the order of The Festive Plow
boy, which you have well won by
y iur heroic achievement while har
nessed may you ever wear ifwith
pleasure to yourself, and may it be
a means of terror to your enemies."
(The Most Eminent Squash Pro
ducer then proceeds to invest tho
candidate with the reealia

spot where the old-time teacher
hunted for brains with the ferule.
The second letter is C, and is applied, j
as I said before, to the stomach. It ,
has a double meaning: First, the j
application is an agricultural one,
'Corn Crib.' and has reference to
the stomach as being the great re- j
ceptacle for Bourbon whisky. But, t
orotner, do not oe diligent in mul
ing a home market for your corn.
The second application of the letter
C, my distracted infant, is got hold
of as follows: When one Granger
desires to ascertain 'for sure' if there
is another order in the room he
raises himself gently by the slack
of the of his unmentionables
scratches his off thigh with his near
hoof, and remarks in a voice of
thunder, 'Are there anv Bmnwrs
about ?' The answer is. ' Joess w.i v.
The inquirer then says, 'Let us see,'
(letter (J,) and the other party must
immediately pull out his stomach
and disclose tho brand.
"These brands are applied in such
a manner that I am enabled to
assure you that they will wash.
I was here interrupted, Mr.
Editor, by a volley fired into the
open window, evidently intended
ior me. fortunately I escaped
without a scratch, and, which is of
more consequence, succeeded in
bringing off my precious manu
script. This is about all there is
in the ceremony of any importance.
I must leave the country at once;
armed men arc at my heels; they
know I am writing to expose them.
lou may near irom me again by
mail, if I should deem it best to
expose the other degrees. Until
then, adieu. From your sacred
Wend, B. Pole.
Notice. This ceremony of in
itiation is used during the absence
of the lady members. Their in
itiatory ceremonies are entirelv dif
ferent, being much simplified, as
they should be.
The Congressional Stomach.
I had a curiosity to sound the ag
gregate Congressional stomach.
Downing, aged and respected semi
African, has managed a wholesome
restaurant under the Representative
hall for years. He says that ten
bushels of oysters are sometimes
swallowed in a day. To tho?e who
look not upon tho oyster in its placid
shell there are other dainties. From
twelve to twenty roast turkeys, an
average of ten roasts of beef, mut
ton, and ham ; about a hundred
pies; a peck or so of salads, and ap
ples and orange3 by the dozen, find
their way down honorable throats.
Some assistance, of course, comes
irom correspomients, clerks, and
vHtors, but most of the deglutition
is by Congressmen. The solids are
washed down by several gallons of
tea and coffee, and a daily mini
mum of one cask of ale. The tem
perance element in the Capitol al
lows the use of beer; straining at
th distilled and fermented gnat,
but gulping the malt camel. Down
ing was an intimate friend of Sum
ner; has enjoyed the personal es
teem of many other men in history,
and is a sort of patriarch among the
Washington colored tilbes. To
bask in in his friendship N the acme
of their mortal life ; to serve in his
restaurant, with the privilege of
grazing freely through the bill of
fare.is their ideal of Aideen. Wash
ington Letter.
The various rumors concerning
Senator Schurz which have been
flying about the country recently
are thus nut to rest bv the Xnrin,,-
ficld Jicjiublican, which evidently
speaks with authority: "Carl
Schurz is not going to leave Mksouri
or public life to edit a German pa
per in Boston or New York. On
the contrary, he expects to go before
the people of Missouri, next Fall,
on his merits as a man and his ca
pacity as a Senator, and ask and se
cure a triumphant re-election. So
far, there is no prospect of any se
rious opposition from either the
Democratic or the Republican
party."

May 4, 1874. f
There is still little or no change in
monetary affairs in this city. Chi
cago and Xew York papers report
increased transactions in the local
business at their respective banks,
and tho impression seems to be
gaining that business ventures may
bo made with reasonablo certainty
during the closing of spring and in
the early summer.
The New York money-market is
very easy for fair and good borrow
ers. Call loans are easily negotiated
at 34 per cent., and good commer
cial paper is readily discounted by
the banks at o"-
The usual first of the month col
lections have caused considerable
increase in the amount of currency
held by the banks of this city,
though there is no appreciable
change in the local loan market.
The weather to-day has been de
lightful, and trade at the wholesale
houses very fair.
Wo note no changes in prices.
