A ES Farm, Garden and Household. Sensonnhle Hints. A warm bran mash is a good thing to give a horse when ho is brought home hot and exhausted from a long journey. Blanket him at onco, and rnb his ears and legs, and then rub his belly and flnuks and such oilier parts of the body as can be got nt without wholly remov ing the blanket. If your man thinks this too much trouble, and will not do the work willingly, discharge him. Bot ter part with the man than lose a good horse. Cows that are expected to calve in March or April should, as a rule, be dried ofl this month. New milch-cows, or eows that chived last fall, should be fed liberally with food favorable to the production of milk, such as roots, bran, corn-stalks, clover hay, and three or four quarts of cornmeal per day. Warm slops or cooked food will increase the flow of milt. Warm and well venti lated stables are also essential. If the cows are turned out to water be careful not to let them stay out long enough to got chilled. . Farrow cows that are giv ing milk should have an abundant sup ply of rich food. They may have as much as four or five quarts of corn meal a day. If they get fat instead of giving milk you can dispose of them to the butcher. Beef is likely to be higher. Sheep should have dry quarters. Dry cold is better for them than warm, wet weather. Avoid close, damp, ill-ventilated basements ; also be careful not to use so much straw for bedding in the sheds and yards that the manure will ferment under the sheep. Nothing can be worse. Swine that are fat must either be sold or put into the pork barrel on the farm. The packers have matters in their own hands this year. Next year we shall get better prices. Last spring or sum mer pigs that are in thrifty condition will pny to winter over. Their summer feed when clover is abundant will cost but little, and they will make good and cheap pork early next fall. Poultry should have fresh meat of some kind during the winter. Keep the hen-house clean, light, warm, and well ventilated. Select oat all the hens and roosters you do not wish to keep. Shut them up by themselves and fatten them. A fat hen or rooster, oven though some what advanced in age, is not bad eat ing. Look out for a change of roosters, On a farm where a good many hens are kept of no special breed it is well to select at least one or two roosters of a breed distinguished for early maturity and fattening qualities rather than of those species valuable as egg layers. Cooking Apple. The great English physician, Syden ham, says the liural Home, allowed no other aliments to his patients in the febrile stages of quinsy, erysipelas and small-pox, than could be found in boiled npples. There are a great many ways of using apples for food, and doubtless some novel way is yet to be discovered. The French, who excel in culinary mat ters, are said to have 365 ways of cook ing an egg. Why should not a similar enterprise be shown in regard to the apple ? An estimable lady of my ac quaintance makes some very palatable dishes and desserts in this way : Apples of uniform size are selected, and. sim ply wiped and cored. This last opera tion is quickly performed by punching them through the middle with an apple corer, thus removing the stem, seeds and tougher part, and making an open , ing for the introduction of sugar in the cooking operation which follows. Af ter dipping them in water, they are placed in any creep pan or baking disli, and sprinkled with sugar, about a tea spoonful to each apple, and a teacupf jl of water turned on around them. They are then baked with a slow, steady fire until sott, wnen tney should be re moved from the baking pans for cool ing and the table. When served with cream, this is a dish fit for the Queen. Every part of the apple can be eaten, the sugar having neutralized the acidi ties in the fruit, and the cooking making tender the skin. It is a capital substitute for strawberries. There is another very good way of treating sweet apples, btew tliem in a porcelain ket tle, with just enough molasses and water to prevent their burning on, till cooked through, and thentransfer them to the oven with all the liquid residuum, to dry and brown. This gives a baked apple, half jellied, delicious in flavor and moisture, that any one can love. Sweet pickles, by some considered su perior to the old-fashioned apple sauce, are made by partly baking sweet npples and then saturating them in a pickle of vinegar, sugar and spices. This is easier to make than apple sauce, which must be smothered in boiled cider. Indian Corn for Horses. In the course of the evidence given before the select Parliamentary Com mittee on horses, lately published, we observe that Mr. Church, general man ager and secretary of the London Gen eral Omnibus Companv, spoke very highly of the value of Indian corn for feeding horses. He stated that the com pany which he superintends have alto gether discarded oats as forage for horses. ' ' These animals are fed entire ly on maize and chaiF, each horse receiv ing as its daily ration about seventeen pounds of the former and ten pounds of the latter. The maize is just broken sufficiently to enable the horses to eat it without difficulty, and they thrive bet ter on this fodder than they ever did upon oats. On the ground of economy, also maize is preferable to oats as for age, its price being much lower, and the saving effected being about 3s. or 4s. a quarter. These facts, Mr. Church went on to observe, have long been known to many owners of horses, but gentlemen with private stables find great difficulty in substituting bruised maize and chaff for the old-fashioned forage of oats and trusses of hay, Coachmen and grain dealers resolutely oppose the innovation, lor the reason that it enables the owners of horses to exercise a control over supplies for their stables, and prevent waste and fraud. Clean Teeth. If you will only keep your teeth clean they won't decay. The wonderful den tifrices which are sold at fabulous prices are greatly inferior to a simple mixture of soap and prepared chalk, with a little something like orris root ; but the essential articles are soap and chalk. The druggif t will prepare you enough for a quarter of a dollar to last a long time, When you go to bed, with a broad, soft tooth-brush, go through the mouth thoroughly. If disposed to a bad mouth, you may repeat the dose in the morning. But the principal ar ticle for keeping the teeth clean is a toothpick a soft goose quill, which ?ou must use after eating, no matter hough it is a piece of apple, and if convenient, after the pick use a mouth ful of water to rinse from between the teeth what the toothpick may have left. Dio Lewis in To-Day. A Deserted City. A Walk ThronRh the Silent Streets of a Once Tlnatlliifr California Town. A correspondent furnishes an Inter esting story of one of the atrangest towns on the oontinent Meadow Lake, Cal, It is, says the writer, the Cali fornia Pompeii, the years of whose an tiquity one can reokon on the fingers of his hands; whose entombing lava is the summit snow storms which sometimes bury it twenty-five feet doep on the level, and whose annual exhumation is brought about by the summer sun. Until 1858 nothing had been done in the way of proteotiug this region. In that year the South Yuba Canal Com pany constructed a dam 1,150 feet long and 4.2 feet high, and at the apex 15 feet wide, across a creek a tributary to the Yuba River. The immense structure is built entirely of solid granite, with out a particle of cement or wood enter ing into its composition. Thus was created an artificial lake or reservoir two miles long north and south, from 300 yards to three quarters of a mile wido, and from 10 to 80 fathoms deep. This is Meadow Lake, from which this strange city derives its appellation. It was not until the summer of 18(35 that the new adventurous spirits suc ceeded in attracting public attention to the new Dorado. The first impulse pro ceeded from Virginia City, Nev. From June until Autumn they came; by hun dreds and hundreds they came, throng ing over the arid, alkaline roads from Washoe to Meadow Lake. In Jnly, 18G5, a publio meeting was called the first ever held the mining laws of Nevada County, California, adopted by acclamation, and the name Meadow Lake formally given to the town pre viously culled Excelsior and Summit City. Soon after began the location of claims. Meadow Lake was surveyed and laid out as a town, covering a plat of 100 acres. It contained spacious streets eighty feet wide, with the blocks divided into lots of sixty ftet frontage and eighty feet in depth; and midway through the blocks ran broad, healthy alleyways sixteen feet wide. With the close of the fall of 1805, the new city contained about one hundred and fifty houses completed, and a num ber of others in courso of construction. Then came a time during which the question, ' What's going to be done next ?" was uppermost in the minds of 1 the adventurers. Finally, one by one, they departed, until only about two hundred persons remained to suffer through the long and dreary winter which ensued. Early the next spring. however, the returning tide set in, four th ousand persons arriving during the faontus oi May and J une. Uorner lots I os to exorbitant rates ; buildings went up rapidly, and, to cap the climax a stock board was organized. But even this farce in time came to an end, and the unfortunate adventurers soon awoke to the sad reality that though there wob plenty of gold there, it was so combined with some sub stance, unknown to the metallurgists, that it was effectually locked up from the hands of man. And so all the dreams and the black art, the science, the metallurgy, and the blow-pipe, were set at naught. One after another, as they abandoned hope, the disappointed gold-seekers turned their backs on Meadow Lake, and went down the mountain. More than $2,000,000 had been poured into that bottomless abyss of California known as " dead work," to pay for mills, roads, buildings, mining, etc., not including the im mense amount of work otherwise em ployedsay 83,000,000. Besides this town of over 000 houses, which was more handsome and sub stantial than most mountain mining towns, and the eight quartz mills, with their ponderous machinery and heavy expense, there were built the neighbor ing villages of Ossaville, Carlyle, Paris and Mendoza, all of which together contained probably a hundred houses. About forty miles of good stage roads were constructed ; stations and stables built along at regular intervals ; forests leveled widely around ; lines of stages established ; caravans of huge moun tain freight wagons set in motion, and all the thousand-and-one appliances of civilized life provided. All this, and ten thousand other things, done in one brief summit summer, gives us an idea of the prodigious energy of the gold seeker, which goes far to cover up his follies and his crimes. Last year a resident of Grass Valley had the curiosity to visit the place m the dead of winter, a feat which he could accomplish only with snow-shoes. On these greut runners, twelve or fifteen feet long, he scaled the Arctic summits of the Sierra Nevada, descending into the valley where lies Meadow Lake, gliding through its empty streets on a level with the second story windows, and have to before one of the com modious hotels. Peering in through the chamber windows, he beheld sleep ing apartments comfortably furnished, chairs, wash-stands, mirrors, and beds smoothed down with' clean linen and heavy comforters, pillows nicely tucked and puffed by the chambermaid's hands all inviting to luxurious repose. He was tempted to go in and take a cold sleep alter his hard climb over the mountains, but the sepulchral solitude chilled his heart and blood. It was like the things beheld by divers who go down into the waters of the sea, and leok through portholes of sunken ar gosies into luxuriously upholstered rooms, where the green waters flow un disturbed. Not a living soul did he behold. Here, just across the street from the room of the stock board above men tioned, is the office, handsomely fur nished, of a stock broker. If his vaults were plethorio with gold and it Is ex tremely doubtful if they ever were they could scarce be safer in the whole world, for Old Boreas has locked .them fast and sure with snow. No burglars need be dreaded here. How strange and 6ad it seems, as we walk along these silent streets, to see ; the signs swing and mournfully creak in the breeze. But all the busy trades-people are gone ; the customers 'are gone ; all, all are gone. And here is the office of The Meadow Lake Sun book and job printing establishment. On the bulle tin board facing the street we read, in display type, "Briefs and transcripts executed neatly, promptly, and hand somely, in accordance with the new rules of the Supreme Court, at the most reasonable rates. Stock books fur nished to order." A melancholy sarcasm in that last clause melancholy because the writers of it were in good earnest, whatever others were. The Meadow Lake Sun shines no more ; it has long since col lapsed in the snow. And here oh C street (number not shown) was the resi dence of G. A. Brier, reporter, a place with the dilapidated aud seedy appear ance traditional to Bohemians. Here was the wholesale liquor store of M. Flood & Co. on B street, between First and Second. A great many of the Aim ay roofs of great superfices are utterly broken down to the ground by the enor mous masses of snow, which falls in this region the aggregate depth of forty or fifty feet in a year. The one solitary inhabitant, Hartley, in his long winter sojourn can move about only on snow shoes, or Norwegian skates. With his guiding pole in his hand, striking on this side and then en that, he attains a speed of locomotion incredible to dwellers in the valleys. Two miles away to the south the Old Man lifts its granite face, and looks down with sad and solomn mien on the swift mutations of human fortune. The grayish coloring of the Sierra summits imparts to the scenery an aspect of hoary and ancient desolation, and thus redeems these mushroom wrecks with an appaarance of being the remains of some by-gone age. XLIIld CONGRESS. SENATE. The Judiciary Cnmmittoo of Hie Bonnte, re ported back the House Bankruptcy bill, with amendments. Sir. )ngy addressed tlie Senate on the finan cial question, favoring an inflation of the cur rency. He thought there had been an unequal distribution of the currency. The six New England Htatos had received 110,000,000, when they were entitlod to bnt 39.U00.00 ; the Middle Htatos bad rocoived an excexs of Jfl.OOO.WlO, while the Hontliem Mates were doticient in their portion 51.000,000, aud the Western States $21,000,000. He advocated the reissue of the 44,000.000 legal tender reserve, an additional issue of '$50,000,000 in legal tend ers, and an issue of 625.000,000 in national bunk notes to Western banks. A petition of citizens of Pennsylvania was presented asking for the appointment of a commission to regulate the sale of alcoholic liquor. I)urinor the salary bill debate. Mr. Flanagan, tf Texas, eaid if there was guilt pertaining to any Senator who advocated the passage of the bill increasing salaries lie was guilty. He favored the passage and voted font out of the purest motives, as he believed Congress bad a right to enact said law. He thonght $7,500 not an excessive salary, and had remarked when the bill passed that it should have been $10,000. Hince then he has not changed his opinion. He had drawn the money (producing the greenbacks from his pocket); " Here they are, sir; this is my pay; I am going to fight for it till the last." (Laughter.) "I have not stolen that pay ; I have done nothing that preys upon my conscience ; I have endeavored to earn it." (Uenowed laughter.) Carpenter, of Wisconsin, said he had spent the back pay drawn last session faithfully and thoroughly, aud he knew of no power under the Constitu tion to get it back. It would be a question be tween the Government and his creditors, and he would leave them to fight it out." (Laugh ter. ) Mr. Sumner presented a petition of 35.179 fersons of Ohio agaiiiBt the proposed theo ogical amendment to the Constitution of the I luted states, lie sum the total lengru or Uio petition was 053 feet. Hoferred to the Com mittee on juuieiary. Mr. Cameron, of Pennsylvania, in discussing the Salary bill, thonght the whole system of mileage wrong. It cost him bnt 55 to come from Harris burg here, yot be rocoived 48 mileage. Members might go around every which way to get to the capital, and think themselves Justified in drawing mileage for the whole distance traveled. The Government of the United States thinks it is right in Bend ing the mail for Elmira from here to Baltimore, men to nuladelpnia ana new lorlc, and tnen to Elmira, though Elmira is noarer to Wash ington than it is to New York. Mr. Sargent, of Cal., presented a petition of Susan B. Anthony aud others asking that women be allowed to voto, or that the same right be extended to them as to colored mcD. Mr. Cameron, of Fa., presented the memorial of the Russian Meunouitcs. setting forth that they desired to become citizens of the United States, and awking that they be allowed to occupy publio lauds. Objected to. Mr." Conkling offered a substitute for the House Salary bill and all the amendments, re pealing the act of March 8, except that portion relating to the salaries of the President and Supreme Judges, and providing that all back pay returned be declared the money of the United States: the bill was passed after dis cussion in which the leading members took part by a vote of 50 Yeas to 8 Nays. The' House resolutiou to fill the vacancies in the Board of liegcnts of the Smithsonian In stitution was taken up and passed. The Chair appointed Mr. Sargent, of California, a member of the Board of 1 logouts of the Smithsonian Institution on the part of the Senate, Eulogies were pronounced on the late James Brooks and W. D. Foster, and resolutions of respect adopted. Mr. Ferry, of Michigan, said as he shared in the public anxiety that the Senate should act ou the question of finance immediately, he proposed to modify his substitute for the reso lution of the committee, so as to narrow the subject down to a moderate increase of the currency. He, therefore, withdrew the sub stitute formerly presented by him, aud sub mitted the following ; '' That the Committee ou Finance bo directed to report to the Senate, at as early a day as practicable, such measures as will restore com mercial confidence, and give stability and elasticity to the circulating medium through a moderate increase of the currency." Mr. Erelinghuyson presented a "bill to secure resumption of specie payments without con tracting the currency, and it was referred to the Committee on Fiiiauce. It authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to issue 9225,000,000 of six per cent, ten-forty bonds, to be disposed of from time to time, for the purpose of pur chasing 2(10,000,000 of gold coin, with which to redeem lecal-tender notes of thn United Kr.ar.nH: aud it shall be in the discretion of the Secretary of the Treasury, so soon as he shall deem it ex pedient, with such amount of cold as for the t ime being ho may have procured, to commence and continue the redemption of legal tenders. When redeemed they are not to be reissued. exoept in exchange for gold coin at par, and whtu so reissued they shall be redeemable in gold coin, but the total amount of legal tenders outstanding and redeemed shall at no time ex ceed $350,000,000. The bill further provides that if. after commencing said redemption, the Government shall be unable to redeem a part of said legal tenders in gold, the Secretary may redeem them by exchanging the aforesaid bonds at par ior mem. HOUSE. Over 100 bills were preseutcd ou the open in" day of the House. Mr. Dawes offered a resolution directing the 8urgeou General of the army to detail one or more medical officers of the "army to visit the towns at which cholera prevailed durmg 1873, or sucu oi tuem as the Kurcreon General mav deem necessary, and confer with the health authorities and the resident physicians of such towns aud collect all facts of importance with reference to such epidemic, and to make a do tailed report on or before January, 1H75. He stated that his attention and that of the Rur goon General had been called to the great Inv portance of the subject by letters from Mr. J. Proctor Knott, formerly a Representative from Kentucky, The resolutiou was adopted. Mr. Wheeler from the Committee on Appro- pnations.reported the Army Appropriation bill. appropriating 24,4iU,'Jlu, wiucn was made special order. The original estimate called for 134,841. 018. I he Secretary of War. on the re vision ordered by the House, reduced them to soz.ibs.Yib. ine uommittee on Appronn. ation has further reduced them by the sum of fi 318.YJ. Mr. Stephens made a long speech on the civil service bill, in which he admitted that his opposition sprung from no prejudice ou ac count or color. The House Committee on Railroads and Canals agreed to a bill regulating charges by railroads for transporting passengers and freight. The Military Committee is about equally divided as to the course to be pursued in the case or ueu. Howard. Ihe Civil Service Committee nave begun an investigation to determine whether the busi ness of the Government cannot be managed wort euuuuuiicaiiy. Mr. Bypher, of La., asked leave to introduce a joint resolution, which he said had the ap proval of the President. It recited that well authenticated reports specifically brought to the capital by Bishop llmer. of Louisiana. show that in certain localities of the South the people are destitute aud in a condition of starvation owing to the failure of the crops. and it directs the Secretary of War to issue army rations in such quantities as may be re quired to alleviate the immediate suffering of tne inuabitauuj of those destitute communi ties. Mr. Butler of Massachusetts spoke in favor of the supplementary Civil Rights bill, closing Mr. Pratt's amendment to the Salary bill which provides that the pay for the balance of tins Congress shall be such amount as to make tne total, with that already received (vio.ooo), 9,5,000 for each year, was rejected by 15 nays to 14 yeas. Mr. Starkweather, of Connecticut, from the Committee on Appropriations, reperted the Fortification bill, which appropriates 994,000 for the improvement of forts, and defenses of the United States coast. The death of Mr. James Brooke was an nounced by his successor, Mr. Cox, and eulogies of the deceased were prouonnoed by Slessrs. Cox and Wood, of New York ; Dawes, of Has- sachnetts, and Kelley, of Pennsylvania. , The death of Mr. . D. Poster, of Michigan, was announced, and two of his colleagues, MeBsrs. Waldren and Williams, delivered eulogies on his character. the debate; the bill was recommitted, with loave to report at any time. The resolution for the relief of destitution In tho South was reported upon adversely. A bill appointing Asa Gray, J. D. Dana, Henry Cop)ee, John McLean, aiid Peter Parker, regents of the Smithsonian Institution wan passed. In discussing the House appropriation bill, Mr. Archer, of Maryland, said the difficulties with Spain had not passed by. There had been a probability that the relations with Spain might remain peaceful while Castelar was at the head of the Spanish Government, for Cas telar was known to be a friend of the American republic. But that very friendship had caused his deposition, and in his place is now the bloody Serrano, who had nothing but hatred and dislike to the United States, and yet the proposition was that the navy should stand, not on the usual peace basis, but one-fourth below the usual peace basis. No greater mis take can lie made than in cutting down the navy in tho cry of economy. The true econo my was to keep up a strong navy in order that, war may bo avorted, not to be economical until war comes, and then launch ont into wild expenditure. The bill for the relief of aged or infirm pre emption settlors ou public lauds was passed. The motion made by Mr Kolley, of Fonn., before the holidays to suspend the rules aud adopt a resolution declaring it to be the sense of the House that the taxes shall not bo in creased, but that the extraordinary means, if any bo required for tho support of the Govern ment, shall he obtained by a temporary loan or loans, bearing a low rate of interest in currency and redeemable in United States notes, came np for action. After discussion the vote was taken and the House refused to suspend the rules. Yeas, 155; Nays, 82 less than two thirds in the alurmative, so the resolution was not received. Mr. Hurlbut, of 111., introduced a bill char tering a double track railway from tide-water on the Atlantic to tho Missouri River, and to limit the freight thereon. Referred to the Committee on Railways and Canals. Mr. Holman, Iud ," moved to suspend the rules and adopt a resolution declaring that in the judgment of the House, there is no neces sity' to increase taxation or to increase the public debt by a further loan, if there shall be economy in the public expenditures, and that in view of tho condition of tho national finances, the House will reduce the appropria tions aud public expenditures to the lowest point consistent with the proper administration of public affairs. The rules were suspended and tho resolution adopted. Yeas. 221; Nays 3. Mr. Hawley, Conn., moved to suspend the rules and adopt a resolution declaring it to be tho sense of the House that tho expenditures of the nation can be aud should bo so reduced and regulated that they can be met by existing taxes, and that in no event should there be an increase of either interest-bearing or non-intcrest-bearing obligations of the Government. The motion was agreed to without the veas aud nays, and amid some laughter and applause. The Education bill was discussed and post poned till March. The Senate substitute for the House Salary bill was passed by 22G Yeas to 25 Nays. A new rule, reqniring that all bills making appropriation shall be hi nt considered in Com mittee of tho Wholo, was adopted. Supervising Architect Mullett has recom mended to the Post-Office Committee tho forfeiture by the racific 3tail Compauv of tho additional subsidy of 500.000. Woman Suffrage In Wyoming. The following is a verbatim copy of the Act which passed by an almost unanimous vote: Be it enacted by the Council andJIouse of Representatives of the I'erritory of Wyoming : "Section 1. That every woman of the age of twenty-one years residing in tho territory may, at every election to be holden under the laws thereof, cast her vte, nnd her right to the elective fran chise and to hold oftice shall be the same, under the election laws of the territory, as those of electors. " Section z. lhis act shall take ellect and be in force from and after its pas sage. "Approved December 10. 18G9." It will be seen by this that they were exceedingly liberal with the fair sex. The male portion of the community have several restrictions put on them, such as ninety days' residence, full United States citizenship, or an oath to become such, eta., before they can vote; but nothing of this kind is asked from a female, her presence being in all cases amply sumcient to prove that she is a resident. Singing to Cows. Cows are sociable, and understand more than we suppose. The way came in possession of this choice bit of knowledge, Tim and I used to sing to our cows. They Know very quick when we changed irom one tune to anotuer. We have tried them repeatedly. When we sang sober church hymns, they would lop their ears down, look serious, and chew their cud very slowly, re minding me no irreverence meditated of nice old ladies in church, listening to tho words of the preacher, yet all the time munching cloves. Then we d change to some quick air, " Yankee Doodle" or the like, and they would shake their heads, open their eyes, and blink at us, as if io say, " Stop, don't von know wo nra tho deacon's cows ?' But when we would stop entirely, every cow would tnrn lier ear, as if asking us to go on with our singing, it it was pleasant, we generally sung together through the entire milking. I love the dear animals that add so much to our comfort. Coys, will ypu not be kind to the cows ? Will Wonders Never Cease J .

A Very Tal liable Work. History of the Grange Movement, or 'the Farmers' Waf against Monopolies." Being a full and authentio account of the strug gles of the American farmers against the extortions of tho Railroad Companies. With a History of the llise and Progress of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry. Pub lished by tho National Ptjumshiko Co., . Philadelphia. The most remarkable and powerful movement of the present day is, un questionably, the War which the Farm era are waging against the Monopo lies of all kinds that have for so long been robbing the people and oppressing the toiling portion of our community. The work: beeins witn tne causes which have Moused the American peo ple against the monopolists, and treats of the railroad system of the country, its growth, actual condition ana pros pects. It then shows how this noble svstem has been 'perverted to further the ends of selfish capitalists and rail road directors, who seek to gain at tne expense of the community ; and we are erven a terrible and thrilling account of the crimes and frauds of the railroad corporations of to-day. Tho author wields a fearless ana vigorous pen, ana points out the evils which this selfish greed has entailed upon us. He show how the great corporations have been ablo to control the whole country j how they have robbed the nation, and cor rupted our Congress, State Legisla tures, and Courts of Justice. rassing from the Monopolists and their outrages, the author takes up the cause of the wronged and oppressed farmers, and gives us a detailed state ment of these evils from which the farm ing class is suffering. He analyzes skillfully the causes of the evils, and Bhows how and by whom the farmers are robbed. A considerable portion of the work is devoted t a history of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry. A complete ac count of the organization and objects of the order is given; its laws and mode of procedure are stated; nnd each feature is explained at length. It is decidedly the most interesting and useful volume of the day, and as it comes at a time when the whole country is suffering intensely from the effects of the evils it denounces, cannot fail to have a tremendous sale. It is an ably written book, and a bold and vigorous plea in behalf of the larmers and all who are oppressed and robbed by the grasping Monopolies which are causing so much trouble. The book is sold by subscription only, and tho publishers wautagents in every county. See advertisement in another column. Com. Cures all Kinds of Catarrh, So successful has Dr. Tierce's Golden Medi cal Discovery proven, as a constitutional treat ment for Catarrh, when coupled with tho use of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, applied locally by the uso of Dr. Pierce's Nasal Douche (the only method of reaching the npper and back cavities of tho head.) that tho proprietor of these medicines lias long offered a standing reward of ?500 for a case of Catarrh which he can not cure.

It is with ploasuro I make this statement to you that after taking medicine for twenty vcars Tor the catarrh, 1 tried your Catarrh Remedy and effected a cure, bo that it has not troubled me for two years. S. Wheeler, Stealing orn Thunder, Toople should bewaro of those impostors who copy Dr. Tierce's original stylo of adver tising, by offering various sized rewards for cases of Catarrh and other diseases which they can not cure. Those who do not possess suf ficient intelligence to write an original adver tisemeut are not likely to have made great and valuable discoveries in jieuicine. L.om.
