has already forced tho toiling millions
into pauperism and aorvitude to a
monied oligarchy more exacting in its
demands and cruelly oppressive in its

despotic government recorded on the

posed liuitleiistimo taxes on the people
without their consent ; abolished our
most vnlnablo laws and radically
changed tho fundamental powers of
our own free government. J iiey nave
destroyed our cominerreand prostrated
tho industries of tho people ny en
couraging tho exportation of our
precious metuls to foreign countries,
thereby preventlnrr, even if desirable,

the premium on gold to such sn extent
as to greatly enhance the price of tho
necessaries oi 1110, winlo at the same
time reducing the price of labor below

ain. Theso and many other charges
nt high crimes and misdemeanors
which might bo onumorutod havo been
perpetuated upon a fruo people until
ornearance nas oeasea to ue a vinuo.
1. That this government is a com
pact between its citiions, not a corpo
ration as designing monopolists and
politicians would make us believe ;
that all have equal interests in the
compact and equal rights under it,and
should enjoy equal rights In Its man'
ngomcnt.
2. J list the only safety to tho la
boring classes is in restoring this gov
eminent to tho solid principles bo
quoathod to us by our fathers, the So
nior cons ot u, and to tho ond ol pre-
pi., nig tue Tiny iu tuia, we tun
dorse the pro.xjsed conference at Cin
cinnatl, September, 1875, as brlgtfiajly
pinnnoq Dy iioraee u. nay, ot Jow
York, and modified mid adopted by
tho Anti-Monopoly Convention held at
Harrisbiirg, i'a., March 2. a and 4,
1875, and we advise all workinir men
and womon in this country to givo it
tneir eorutai support.
3. That wo consider the present fi
nancial system as the potent cause of
the present industrial derangement
and depression of trade and commerce,
as well as tho causa of the serfdom ol
labor to capital, and that wo consider
us on tiro abolition und the substitution
of an unlightonod system of financiul
management in harmony with the in
terests of tho producing massos. of ub
soluto importance and us tho only
means of averting coming disaster to
mo industrial and commercial interests.
That in the name. of Almighty (iod,
lor ine sane ol common humanity, lib
erty and decaying independence, wo
appeal io our brother working men
throughout this land in all avocations,
to arouse and unite und act tor our
common safety against tho power of
monopolies, tlio growing power of ag
gregated capital, and tlio threatened
further enslavement of labor, by using
their ballot to placo in otllco men from
our own ranks, imbued with our idois,
tiuigni in our principles, schooled in
our youth, and through them and our
own ett'orU, backed by intelligence and
honesty of purposo, wo muy eventual
ly curb tbo power that is now crush

rights hulonging Ui a free people. That

cipal clusses of property, as to the de
scent ot which tho "Intestine Laws
make a broad distinction, and this dis
tinction must bo kept in mind. There
is "real estate," which means (broadly)
nouses and iitnus: und "personal
tato," which means money, bonds,
stock, goods, merchandise, furniture,
jewelry, ond, gonorally, nil valuables

erly dies, the first claim against tho
property is the payment of tho just
duuis ol the deceased and tho legal
charges against the cstulo. If there
ho no will und no marriage settlement
tho romaidcr, after tho debts are paid
is disposed of by tho law as follows :
vi here tho deceased person has left
a widow and a child or children, the
widow is onltlled to one-third part of

is, to dispose of in any wny she thinks

deceased. The remaining one-third of
the real estate, in which tlio widow bus
a life estate, also descends at her de

dosceuduudu of any doceased child or
children or to their heirs.
Where tho deceased person has made
no will, and has left a widow but no
child, and no descendant ot any do
ceased child, but has left what tho law
calls "collateral heirs," father, mother,
sister, nephew, niece, or other kindred
tho law makes the following disposal
of tho property : One-half part of tho
personal property goes absolutely to

If both litthor and mother he dead,
then tbe remaining half of the pnntruml

tho willow's one-bulf life interest, go to
the brothers and sisters, or brother or
sistor of tho "whole blood," or tho de
scendants of any deceased brother or

TWER CATVJ1INQ.
Somo of tho perils nnd difficulties
thatbeset tho professional tiger-catchor
are inns aut forth by I bnrles Jamrach,
a London dealer in wild animals :
r nil grown tigers nro very seldom

in jsurope do not hko them. Large

catch tigers from four to six months
old. When a pair of tigers have
made a lair, tho shicknrees observe
that tho mnlo goes out alone. Ho then
lies in wnit tor him, and before the
father has come to say irood niorninrr
to his young ones, he is treuonillv
killed, his head severed from Lis body,
and taken to the kutcberee, where a
government official pays the shickaroe
fifty rnpoes for it. Tho female and
her cubs are then watched. When tho
shickaroe knows that tho young ones
can do without their mother, which he
discovers by hor indifference, sho is
generally killed, aud tho young ones

period with tigers, as with all the
leline species, so that I generally koep

MORMON WORSHIP.
A letter from a visitor to Salt Lako
to tho Troy Thnm gives a brief sketch
of tho Mormon style of worship. Tho 18 '
writor says : Tho principal object to rcl
and such rhetorical finish, a very little
of it usually as they possess, lie then
commits them to niomory, and recites
them. Ho is not an orator, in any
truo sense, but depends for bit tuccess
upon his capacity as an actor second
rnto at best ana ho novcr could suc
ceed upon tho stage Think of an
orator, a Patrick Henry, or a John
Adams, or a Tom Marshall, Tom Ew
ing, H. 8. Prentice, Clay, Webster or
Sumner, Phillips, or any other true
orator, koeping account of the number
of speeches or orations he bos deliv
ered, and the number of miles be has
traveled to deliver them ! Just 108
times in Philadelphia, 304- in Hew
York, Ac. has Googh opened his mouth I
Why most likely Webster or Sumner
or Bishop Simpson, Ac, of our eminent
speakers and preachers, dead or living,
could never estimate with any degree
of certainty how many times tboy had
addressed public bodies. But Gough
has made his notes, and figured every,
thing down to a unit for advertising
purposes. 1 here s something serious
uikhi tho vory face of all this. And
Gough is not the only man of little
merit who hot been passed upon by
iuo people os nrsi-cioss. Jl is this tort
of "mado up" orators and lecturers
who have vitiated tho public taste.
Whoever heard one of tiough'i lectures
which roso above tho dignity of a
string ol disconnected storios, pretty
wen toiu i Alio lecture coniniittous
owe it to the public to select for their
courses a higher class of talent than
thoy are wont to. These business
orators who keep absolute accounts of
tho numborot their "talks" nre hardly
up to the propor standard. There are
other popular ranters but wo reserve
them ami their illiteracy for another
occasion. How they "mako up" thoir
lectures, and deliver "impromptu"
speeches which are months old, and
pass for orators, is a funny ttory which
should bo told by itself. Washington

TABLE MANNERS.
Tho tublo is the place whore tho
family meet, and there should bo tho
freest nnd most unrestrained inter
course. We eat to live ; but the more
animal necessity is lifted up and glori
fied when tho charms of pleasant con
versation nnd of mutual courtesy sur
rounded tho custom. So far at tho
sustaining of lifo is concerned, that ob
ject may bo reached if each took his
bread and retired to n closet to eat it
alone. Hut there is a spiritual life that
is to be fed and sustained, and it is
starved whero there it no craco. not
only before, but during a meal.
1 ho great trouble with our A moncati
lifo ia that it is too gloomy. Wo take
no timo to entertain and amuse each
other. Not seldom docs it happen in
somo houses that a meal progresses in
dead silonce, oxcept whan it is neces
sary to speak about tho dishes, or to
help somo ono to potatoes or pio. Th is
is almost ns had as rudeness or quar-
mg. Thoro ought to bo briirht.
see there is the tabernacle, or house of! 8parKiing milt in which the children
Bhould be allowed to join. There is no
sense, whatever, in compelling an intel
ligent child to sit like a deaf mute at
the tablo ; though, on tho othor hand,
children should not monopolize the
conversation, nor be allowed to ask
strings of irrevelent questions. Each
ono should prepare for it by some
simplo process of dressing. The hair
should be smooth, the hands washed,
tho general appearance of oach should
try to be ns agreeable as possible to
each othor. It is quits wonderful how
a littlo refreshing ot tho toilet freshens
up the soul as well as tho face. So far
wo all ought to bo luxurious. If the
mothor Bees to it, thnt her school-boy
sons always cotno to dinner with clean
hands and nails, and that hor daugh
ters never dwadlo into tawdry finory
or soiled wrappers, sho will do more
than sho dreams of in tho work of
making them grow into real trentlemeu
and ladies.
The table itself ought to hare a fes-
tivo look. Flowers have a special
grace on tho breakfast board. A dish
of fruit niculy arranged, pleases the
eyo as well as tho palate at dinner.
Clean linen, even though coarse, and
wholo plates and cups, with bright
glass and sjlvor, help the appetite along.
A few woll cooked dishes, nicely
served, will promote health and happi
ness better than a great variety ruined
in tho preparation.
Some honsckcepors, with an eye to
saving trouble on washing day, havo
adopted tho murblo oil cloth, instead
of the white damask for ordinary uso.
For our part wo would prefer economy
in almost any other wny. A fine white
table cloth, or a buff or crimson ono
occasionally for breakfast or tea, will
furnish tho family feast much more
beautifully.

FA TTENINd HOG.SON GRAPES.
A California paper suggests a rathor
novel way of disposing ot the surplus
fruit of tho Calfornia vineyaads: still
It may bo a good ono and worthy of
attention elsewhere:
A practical former a man of over
twenty years' experience in tho corn
regions of tho West, and about tho
same in California gave ut tho other
day bis candid opinion that good, swoct,
well ripened mission grapes fed to hogs
would make as much pork, pound for
fionnd, as corn. Doubting on onr part
ed to investigation into the theory of
fat and flesh production, and though
still unwilling to behove that a hundred
poundt of grapes will make twonty
jiounds of pork about what corn will
do when properly led wo cannot bnt
admit that they may prove vory profit
able for feeding, and as this gentleman
informs us that hia hoga will leave bar
ley or wheat to eat grapes, wo would
recommend thoso parties who, because
wine making has not been a success
with them, and their common grapes
are not tho things for raisins, have
meditated rooting out their vines, to
try tkit motlo of disposing of their
crop. An acre of vines, when they
ase five years old, will bear, say ton thou

in tho audienco I Tho service is simi
Inr to ours, or about tho sumo. It is
opened by a hymn, then a prayer is
mudo by ono of tho ciders, then a
hymn, then a sermon. Tho sermon is
an extemporized lecture ; no text is
taken, although tho bible (a largo cony)
rests npon tho desk ; tho Book of Mor
mon is also upon the desk. Tho min
ister neither reads from tho Bible nor
tho Book of Mormon. During tho
sermon or nt the commencement of tho
sormon, eight deacons prepare the
bread that Is, break it and put it into
silver baskets ; when it is ready tho
minister pauses a moment, and ono of
the ciders descends from Ids seat nnd
blesses it. After the bread has been
taken around, which requires somo
timo, then tho deacons pour tho water
from tho silver pitchers ialo largo sil
ver cups. When this is ready there is
another pause in tbo sermon, uuother
older comes down and blesses the water,
and that i served. The ceremony oc
cupies nearly nil tho timo the sormon
is going on. There are two barrels of
wutor, from which the deacons replen
ish their pitchers from timo to timo.
Tho communicants seem to tuko a
good drink of water, instead of a sip
only ; indeed, 1 saw no one tuko less
than several swallows. J hut accounts
for tho necessity of two barrels. Oh,
