Potato Culture.
At the Into meeting of the Bucks
County fPn.) Agricultural Society,
Thomas Rhallcross renl nn essay on
Totnto Culture," in which he detailed
his success with vnrious varieties last
venr. The Teprless he placed ntthe
head out of eight sorts, it yielding near
,ly 300 bushels per acre of mnrketable
tubers. The Climax stood next, yield
not so good, qunlity better, and almost
equal to the Early Hose in enrliness.
Monitor third in yield and. profit, but
liable to rot, and large ones often hol
low. Early Rose poor in quality and
small, large enough in yield season
unfavorable. Early Goodrich yielded
well, quality poor. The Trolific (new)
about as good in quality and yield as
the Climax, but inclined to set too thick
on the vines, and kept green till late.
Jackson White, good quality, popular,
but yielded poorly, llinman did not
do well. Feuehblow, though good, can
not compete with the . Peerless where
profit is the object ; Teei-less will pay
better at 50 cents than Peachblow at $1.
Cuzco, prolific, but poor generally dis
carded. Four things he thought neces
sary to first-class crops, viz., a light,
loamy soil, plenty of good manure,
(stable manure the main dependence)
fifteen to eighteen tons per acre, good
seed (such as has not been planted
more than two or three times) and
thorough culture. Put on the manure
whenever you have it no matter if
the ground is frozen or covered with
snow, provided it is not a sidchill.
Land full of vegetable matter is excel
lent for this crop. In following corn it
is a good plan to plough in the fall, and
then begin manuring ; weeds will be
less troublesome in this way. Plant
when dry and warm. One or two eyes
are enough to a piece of seed ; plant in
every other furrow, and ten or twelve
inches apart ; where certain vnrieties
incline to grow too large, like the Peer
less or Monitor, plant closer. Cover
about two or three inches ; use the
roller only on dry ground. A substitute
for the roller would be a large door
drawn over the ground, which will level
without packing. Harrow before the
potatoes come nn. Hill nn inst hnf
the vines fall with a potato plough. Dig
as soon as the vines die ; store in a dark,
cool cellar. Mr. S., thinks potatoes the
most profitable crop of his section. In
1871 he sold 1,055 bushels for $909, the
product of eight acres. The manure
cost S38 per nere, besides hnuling.
Feeds his small potatoes, and did not
include them or his seed in the figures
and estimotes given above.
Obstruction in a Cow'i I'dtlrr.
Is there any remedy for a cow that
has a chunk in the bag, " at the root of
the tent," so that the milk runs down
vory slow. S., "West Clarksville, X. Y.
Reply by L. B. Arnold, .Secretary
American Dairymen's Association'.
The bunch is occsaioned by a thick
ening of the valve iu the milk tube,
near the junction of the teat and udder.
Such enRes are seldom perfectly reme
died. They can be improved by taking
a large steel knitting-needle and flatten
ing a spot an inch or so from one end
and making the edges sharp. Insert a
tube or quill in the teat just large
enongh to admit the flattened spot, and
let the upper end of the tube reach
nearly to the bunch. Pass the needle
through the tube and cut the hard lump
one way going up, turning it to make
a cross cut coming down. The tube re
maining in the teat, pass a small swab
or sponge, wet with iodine, up through
the tube, and brush the wound. This
will deaden the surfaces nnd tend to
prevent growing together while healing.
This will niford temporary relief and
sometimes permanent. Occasionally
the thickening of the valve will contin
ue and spoil the teat in spite of treat
ment. I have seen a statement of sim
ilar treatment, when the cow was dry,
a silver tube remaining iu the teat till
healing was well along, that was said to
work well. The plan looks feasible,
but I have never experimented at that
season.
BR lor Orchard!.
If a man wants fine fruit he should
keep a dog under the tree cut up in
pieces 'and buried among the roots.
The carcass of even the average cur is
declared to contain about one pound of
phosphorus an important element of
fertility. In view of the curtailed con
dition of the sheep trade and the im
paired health of orchards, there ought
to be more shipwrecks on the sea of
canine life ; more barks gone down for
ever. Women as Students.
A lady writer in the Boston Traveler
pays: ua nn average my girls at twelve
were as advnnced ns my boys at fifteen ;
and who shall dare say, if an equal
number of those girls with the boys had
been told at that age, or custom had
rendered it common, that they were to
seek professions for life and support
themselves by their intellectual efforts,
that they would have lagged behind
any of those boys ?
It is all noiiseuse, this talk about
women naturally possessing inferior
mental capacity. A ho does not know
that the mind of man grows and
(strengthens by use, nnd so would the
mind of woman, but just nt the age
when a few boys and youncr men becin
m earnest to study for a livelihood or
to make themselves fnitfous, young
women are taken from school with their
" education Jin inhcd," so called! Just
give them an equal chance in colleges
of their own, separate from Hnrvaid's
proua sons, and banish sickening novels
and odious fashions from the domains,
teach them that they ought never to
marry for a support, but nre self-sustaining
themselves, and if Harvard boys
are not compelled to be " fast " in or
der to win and not to be left lagging
behind in the race for literary honors,
then my-woman's prevision is as false
as the assumption that women desire
knowledge because men are learned,
wish to fill their places, or -take " all
the privileges of men."
Drnnkards by the Thousand.
It is asserted on the best authority
that only a few evenings since a scheme
for starting 100 saloons in the poor dis
tricts of the city of New York was seri
ously considered by two capitalists as
they sat over their dinner in one of the
most fashionable up town clubs. The
projector of the enterprise had the ex
pense calculated to such a nicety that
he could warrant a remunerative in
come to any one who would engage
with him in the traffic The speculator
did not calculate the number of mur
derers or wife beaters which these 100
gin mills would annually produce ; but
he did ascertain to a dead certainty
that $250,000 clear profit could be mnde
each year. And this, too, in a city
wl ose gin mills now ruMning, if placed
in two lines, would fill both sidea of
Broadway from th Battery to Central
A Infernal Machine Sent by A Husband
to his Wife.
In stories of Italian running and
malevolence one often reads of death
dealing boxos being sent ostensibly as
appreciative presents to princes and
others in authority whose extinction is
deemed desirable. To-day fortunately
there is not rmtch risk of one's being
the recipient of so fatal a gift; yet nn in
stance of this romantic way of attempt
ing assassination has but recently oc
curred near Edinburgh.
A Mr. David Macrea. a contractor.
Jiot long since sent a box to his wife,
wno lives at saugnton iiall, near Edin
burgh, at the snme timo writing to her
in the name of hrr mother thot a box of
wearing apparel had been forwarded,
and could be found at the railway sta
tion. Mrs. Macrea suspected that her
husband was the one who had sent the
box, and was apprehensive as to its
contents. She therefore had it opened
with great cure by the employees of the
railway company. A loaded nistol at
full cock, with a cap on the nipple, four
nnu a nan pounds of blasting powder,
and broken glass made up the contents
of the box. A string was fnstened to
the trigger of the pistol in such a way
that on an attempt being made to open
the lid the string would be pulled, the
pistol fired, nnd the powder thus
exploded.
Mrs. Macrea preferred a charge of at
tempted murder atrainst her htishnnd.
but when the cose was called before the
High Court of Edinburgh, on the 2nd
of June, he failed to appear, his bail
bond was forfeited, and sentence of
outlawry pronounced ncraiust him.
This treacherous method of assassina
tion is even worse than poisoning, for
while in the rearrangement of the de
stroying ngeucy there is shown the long
deliberation which is an element in all
cases of poisoning; there is shown, too.
in a case of this kind, where an infernal
machine is used, a terrible disregard fur
the lives of many others besides that of
the hated individual.
For the Cholera,
More than fortv rears nco. suvs tho
New lork Sun, when it was fouud that
prevention for the Asiatic cholera was
easier than cure, the learned doctors of
both hemispheres drew up a prescrip
tion, which was puousneu (lor working
peopie; in tne iew xorL bun, and took
me name oi tne "bun cholera mixture.'
We have seen it in constant use for
nearly two score years, and found it to
ne tne best remedy for looseness of the
bowels ever yet devised. It is to be
commended for several reasons. It is
not to be mixed with liquor, nnd there
fore will not be used as an oleoholic
beverage; its ingredients are well known
among all the common people, and it
will have no prejudice to combat; each
of the materials is in equal proportion
to the others, and it may therefore be
compounded without professional skill:
and, as the dose is so very small, it may
be carried in a tiny phial' in the waist
coat pocket, and be always at hand. It

Mix the above in equnl parts; dose,

take equal parts tincture of opium, red

of diarrhoea, take a dose of ten to twen

of water. No one who has this by him,
and takes it in time, will ever have the
cholera.
The National Cemeteries.
The War Department has issued gen
eral orders in which it is said: "The
national cemeteries are to be venerated
as the resting-places of the noble dead
of the nation, whose memory the people
desire to honor by making their graves
beautiful, and by preserving them from
injury or desecration." Particular in
structions are given for this purpose.
While Superintendents are required to
be men of intelligence, and zealous nnd
faithful in the discharge of their public
duties, they are also expected to be tem
perateand moral in their habits, and
upright and honora-ble in their private
transactions. The Secretary of war has
decided that the United 'States will
transfer the remains of such Union sol
diers ns nre now buried iu the Ever
green Cemetnry, nt Gettysburg. Penn

the same place, upon application of
friends of the deceased, who have the
right to make the request.

gleum of Irish mirth or humor, the
countenance being sorrowful." The

A Divorce iu the "Good Old Times."
isefore the war, in the gold mining
regions of Burke County, North Caro
lina, lived an industrious,' well-to-do
colored woman, named Nancy Boyce.
She was engaged to marry Jack, a slave.
and in order to have everything pleasant,
she put her hand in her pocket, and
bought him of his master. But she was
shrewd enough to take a bill of sale of
him, fortunately as it happened, for
Jack turned out to he utterly worthless,
and a perfect sot. But little need was
there for Nancy to go to the Courts for
relief by divorce; she knew a better way
than that. She owned her man, and
she simply sold him to a slave dealer
who carried him off to the far South
west, so that sharp Nancy was not both
ered by him again. Husbands have
been badly sold before, though not in
this particular way.

Tbe Conquest of Khiva,
What I lCipeateri In ft mult from It A
Sketch of the Country.
The conquest of Khiva, says Thomas
Knox, is a certainty, and from my
knowledge of the policy and prowess of
liussia, and the extent of her prepara
tion, I shall be disappointed if the
Russian ting does not wave over Khiva
by the time this article comes from the
hands of tho printer. The emperor
will extend his dominions as rapidly as
possible, and after Khiva has fallen
there is fair ground for expecting the
conquest of Afghanistan. Tlenty of
time will be taken, though something
may occur to induce haste. In such
case Russia will not be found wanting.
The conquest of Central Asia up to the
frontiers of British India is likely to be
made within the next ten or twenty
years, nnd possibly it wm be accom
plished m the present year.
That the Russians will attempt to
push into India I do not believe ; they
have no wish to provoke a war with
Great Britain by any aggressive move
ment. What the latter power holds she
may keep ; Afghanistan may possibly
become a bone oi contention, and pos
sibly Russian and English troops may
meet in her territory, but they are not
likely to fight it out there. The dispute
that arises is more likely to be settled
by diplomacy than by war, unless Eng
land takes the aggressive. Besides the
onquest of Central Asia, Russia seeks
to establish a port on the Indian Ocean;
she already hos a project for a railway
to India, and the Bubject of navigating
the Oxus and Jaxartes has long been
under consideration. The chief diffi
culty iu the way of running boats on the
Oxus is the absence of water for several
mouths of the year in some parts of the
river, and the daily shifting of the sandy
channel iu other parts. Water is gen
erally regarded as a nine qua non in
steam navigation, and for most practi
cal purposes the Oxus is useless. The
Jaxartes is somewhat, though not much,
better, but it has not yet been deter
mined to what extent it is available.
The railway is the only certain means
of rapid communication, but the dis
tances are so great and the local re
sources so few that it can not be looked
for at present.
The khanate of Khiva is defined by
the geographers ns lying between lati
tude 30" and 45 north, and longitude
52 and 64 east, bounded north by the
Kirghiz Steppe and the Aral Sea, east
by Bokhara and the Kizikum Desert,
south by Khorassan, and west by the
Caspian Sea. It has an area of 150,000
square miles, and a population esti
mated at 2,000,000. Most of the land
is an arid desert, and the fertile portion
of Khiva is mainly along the Oxus,
where there is considerable agriculture.
Cotton is extensively cultivated, and
great numbers of sheep, goats, horses,
and dromedaries are raised. Silk, cot
ton, and woolen fabrics are made, and
large quantities of the raw materials are
exported to Russia by caravans. Most
of the work is performed by slaves.
and the capital of Khiva is a great slave
mnrt.
The Russian conquest will doubtless
break up this traffic, and it is for this
reason that .Persia favors instead of op
posing the Muscovite ambition. More
than twenty thousand Persians nre
held in bonuage in Khiva ; occasionally
these slaves escape to Hussia, and are
nrotected. and it, is this protection of
fugitives which has cnused much ot the
' ... . -t ; - ..
ill feeling between Russia and Khiva,
In Barnaul, Western Siberia, I saw sev
eral persons who had thus escaped, nnd
from the lips of one of them, nn officer
of the l'ersinn army, I heard the terri
ble story of his sufferings during a
seven years' captivity, and of the cruel
treatment visited upon him and his fel
low-prisoners.
Khiva, the capital, is situated on a
plain near the Oxus, has a population
of a little over 12,000, and is surround
ed by mud walls, easily broken by the
modern opplionces of war. iho lurco-
man slave-hunters bring their captives
to the city, where they are sold in the
public square in the same way that
sluvea are sold at the barracoons oh the
African coast. Sometimes when tribes
iu various parts of the khanate are in
revolt, the troops of the emir are sent
to chastise them. lhe heads of the
slain are brought in by the victors, and
paid for at stipulated prices, lhe pris-
oners, such as nre under forty years of
age, are sold into slavery ; the old men
are beheaded or tortured, according to
the will of the khan. Vanibery thus
describes the treatment of a party of
rebel prisoners brought into Khiva at
the time of his visit: " The young men
were chained together by their iron col
lars in numbers of ten to fifteen, and
led away ; the old men awaited submis
sively the punishment awarded to them
While several were led to the gallows or
block, I saw how, at a sign from theexe
cutioner, eight aged men placed them
selves down on their backs upon the
earth. They were then bound hand
and foot, and the executioner gouged
out their eyes in turn, kneeling to do so
on the breast of each poor wretch ; and
after every operation ho wiped his
knife, dripping with blood, upon the
white beard ot the hoary unfortunate,
The Khivaus have all the appliances
of torture known to ancient or modern
times. The bare enumeration of them.
with the briefest description, would
cause the most stoical of readers to
shiver with horror.
Humanity will be greatly benefited by
Russia's absorption of Khiva. The
Crescent must give way to the Cross
and the mercy and love taught by the
Nazarene must be substituted for the
cruelty enjoined by him who preached
death to unbelievers, and spread his re
ligion with nre and sword.

Mentnl Depression.
Mental depression is a disease of tho nervous
system, and, of all tho ills flesh is heir to, it Is the
one that excites the least sympathy. It is a subject
of frequent jests, and is called by various deiisivo
terms; but although it is often laughed at, it is
not etisy to laugh the patient out ti ii u.InX .ii-.'.
his ills are all real, for it is a real disorder the
general features of which are constaut fear,anxicty
and gloom. Tho external senses, as well as the
mental faculties, often manifest symptoms of de
rangement. Noise, sa of falling water, and ring
ing in the ears are complained of, while blai-k
specks and fiery sparks frequently flit before the
vision. Admonitions like these should not be dis
regarded, as they may, if neglected, terminate in
insanity. The scat of the Ciscase is tn the brain
and nervous system, and to control the malady it
is necessary to use a poweiful tonic and alterative,
which will correct and tone those organs without
inflaming the brain. This is the secrc of the suc
cess of Ilostetter's Stomach Bitters in cases of this
kind, for which it is the safest as well as the best
of restoratives. In fact it is the only pure and
reliable tonic stimulant known. Many nostrums,
purporting to be tonics, are puffed up from time to
time la the newspapers, but the sufferer had better
let them alone, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters has
proven itself, by many years' trial, to be iu every
respect what it is re resented to be.

Dr. .1. Walker's CnliTornia Vin
egar Hitters nro n purely VcRctabln
preparation, made- chiefly from tho na
tive herbs found on tho lower rantjes of
tho Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor
nia, the medicinal properties of which
are extracted therefrom without the nso
of Alcohol. Tho question Is almost
daily asked, "What is tho causo of tho
unparalleled success of Vinegar Rit
tkrs?'' Our answer Is, that they reruovo
tho causo of disease, and tho pationta-'
covers bis health. They are thorttt
blood purifier and a life-giving principle,
a perfect lienovator and Invigorator
of tho system. Never before in tho
history of' tho world has a medicine lieen
compounded possessing tho reninrkalilc
qualities of Vini;!ar UrnrKRs in hi'iilinjr tho
sick of every dir ciiso man is heir to. They
are a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic,
relieving Congestion or Inflammation of
the Liver nnd Visceral Orgnns, iu Bilious
Diseases.
The properties of Jn. Walker's
Vinegar Hittkhs me Aperient, Diaphoretic,
Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic,
Sedative, Counter-Irritant, Sudorific, Altera-
tive, and Anu-Jtilious.

vigorant that ever sustained the sinking

Autumn, and remarkably so during sea
sons of unusual heat and dryness, aro
invariably accompanied by extensive do-
rangCTicnts of the btmnaeli and liver,
and other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow
erful influence upon these various or
gans, is essentially necessary. Thero
is no cathartic for the purpose equal to
Dr. J. Walker's Vinegar Bitters,
as they will speedily remove the dark-
colored viscid matter with wlncli tno
bowels are loaded, at the same tune
stimulating the secretions of tho liver,
and cenerally restoring the healtliy
functions of tho digestive organs.

;n these, as m an otner consiuuiiouiu i-
lases, "Walker's vikeoar Hitters navo
shown tneir great curative powers m "
most obstinate and intractable cases.
For Inflammatory and Chronic
Rheumatism, Gout, Ililious, Remit

lhe Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder,
these Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases

caged in Paints and Minerals, such as

liners, as they advance in life, are subjuet

against this, take a dose of Walker's Vin
egar Bitters occasionally.
For Skill Diseases, Eruptions, Tet
ter, Salt-Khenm, Blotches, Spots, Pimplos,
Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, Ring-worms,
Seald-bead, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch,
Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Ilumors
and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name
or nature, are literally dug up and carried
out of tbe system hi a short time by the use
of these Bitters.
Tin, Tape, and other Worms,
lurking in the system of so many thousands,
are ettoctually destroyed and removed. No
system of medicine, no vermifuges, no an
thelminitlcs will free the system liotu worms
like these Bitters.
For Female Complaints, In young
or old, married or single, at the dawn of wo
manhood, or the turn of life, these Tonio
Bitters display so decided an influence that
improvement is soon perceptible.
Cleanse tho Vitiated Wood when
ever you find its impurities bursting through
the Bkhi in Pimples,- Eruptions, or Sores;
cleanse it wheu you find it obstructed ami
sluggish in tho veins; cleanse it when it is
foul ; your feelings will tell you when. Keep
the blood p'.'.re, and the health of the systoia
will follow.
