some harrier must of necessity be main.
tained against snow drifts, The fences
that have been relied upon have to be 8
feet high and cost about $800 a mile, and
need constant attention and repair. Fur
thermore, the farmers carry off the
boards, and the stoutest oak posts snap
like pipe stems in a Shoraaghgoing prai-
rie gale. Trees answer all the require
ments much better. The white willow,
which grows to a highth of twelve feet in
four years, has been found to be the
cheapest and best, though the box elder
cottonwood, and green ash will serve.
The soil;must be prepared by harrowing,
however, and prairie soil ix often so poor
as to require two or three years’ work.
even then it is said it is cheaper to use
live fences than dead ones. These free
fences are constructed by planting two

tracks exposed to the strongest winds

Gov, Dutler knows how {o write fast

and addresses, In his call for a “fast” on
the 5th of April, he recommends that the
people meet in their usual places of wor-
shipand implore the forgiveness and
blessings of God, and that unpecessary
'abor and recreation be suspended, and
the Governor especially exhorts that

“feed their flocks with the divine Word,

other secular topics which may divert

— Down along the Ohio river, where
the late floods have washed ibousands
out of house and home and left men,
women and children destitute of every
thing, hunger is adding to the misery of
all. This makes us think how fortunate
it would be for those people were they
within easy reach of a few such provi-
sutset it was evident that the spirit of
fun was supreme. Chairman Page, «
the commerce commitiee, became em-
broiled with Sunset Cox, whom hestyled

sntiemen to desist from giving advice
to the motions of their associales,
After his encounter with Sunset Cox it
was thought that Mr. Page had enough
for the evening, but he soon engaged an-
ther New Yorker, Mr, Van Vorhis. The
hairman of the commerce committee
made a grievous error when be backed
as
me hour debate and consented to a mod
ication. The opponents of the bill were
ick to take advantage of his apparent
weakness, and among the latter was Jr.
Van Vorhis was speaking against

ho was standing in the centre aisie, de-
lared with emphasis that he did not
propose to be ball-dozed by a mmnle-
whacker or a stage driver from Califor
ia,
Considerable excitement prevailed dur-
ing the delivery of these remarks, and
this was heightened when Messrs. Page
and Van Yorhis were selected an tellers
on the point of no qnoram. Mr. Page
stuck histhumbs in the arm-holes of his
vest and strutted down to the space in
front of the Speaker, where Mr.
Vorhis, with a scowl on his face and his
hands in his pockets, awsited him.
Neither gentlemen attempted to shake
bands, as it is eustom, bat after the count
was complete Mr. Yan Vorhis was seen
to shake his right band vigorously nnder
Mr. Page's nose, at the same time caress
ing his muscle with his leit. The opposs
ing chiefs, however, failed to come to
blows, as hundreds hoped they would,
and Page, who had scored a victory by
a presence of a quorum, walked slowly
away.
House did not care to ta'k business, but
adjourned without fixing any time for

ponshoss organ sent out to a friend to
come in and advise him to stop; we
have a say about that. He next wads

fight be had against the Democrats, and
called in an Ohio rad to help him--that
left him in a worse stew still, He then
for three weoks fought the defunct Aa

laughing stock of his neighbors, by come
ing ont at the little end. Exhausted, he
takes to dreams,

also came over from the republican par-
ty.
which we now point out :
down a first class appointment from a
party in power which would give bim
anv office, and went over to a party thst
had no offices or power. This was disin-
terested patriotism. Now how did the
pon-hoss editor do? why he left the
democratic party for spite because it de-
feated him for ’squire ; then after going
over to the enemy he also deserte
them for spite because there he was de-
feated for Treasurer. Now he plays the
part of the toad in the fable of the toad
and ox—blowing himself np to appear
like Cartin—oh my!
The pon-hoss man started out com-
plaining the Reromrrer never complis
mented him. For this neglect we com-
plimented him strongly upon the im-
provement it was to have his paper
talk about the Rerorter, and let out
his sausage and pos-hoss literature, and
descriptions of his tours to Coburn Bta-
tion, Lock Haven and other villages.
Now he complains the ReroeTER never
visited his shanty, Well, how could we
be expected to know there was a paper
in his town when the court itself decided
his was no paper? besides we ui not

but gathering from others we would ask

as a respectable and industrious fixture
of the establishment. My excellent
