Queries for William M'Candless.
General William M'Candless, yoa were
a member cf the Senate in 18G0, when
the Fifteenth Amendment to the Federal
Constitution was before that body for rati
fication. - On that amendment you made
a speech, and that speech is published in
the Legislative Record, page 9G4 ; and
in that speech, speaking of the friends
of that measure, you said: "They are
sapping the very foundation of our liber
ties by the theory contained in the so-called
Fifteenth Amendment to the Federal
Constitution." . . . -
Speaking to General Fisher, one of the
Senators from Lancaster, you said : .''The
shade of Thaddeus will rh'j to your sup
port, and give jou some reason for sur
rendering to Federal power the very cit
adel of the liberties of the people of your
State." 1
Further on you said : '
; 'The patriots of the revolution battled
for years on many a doubtful and bloody
field to establish, which they did success
fully, the right of local self government
on this continent, and now, in. the space
of three hours, the majority in this cham
ber will set aside, as far as in them lies,
the handiwork of the fathers of the re
public." 4,The solar system acts by the immuta
ble laws of nature : our system by the
mutability of the political necessities of
an unscrupulous party. If their action
to a centralization of power in the Fed
eral government (as the passage of this
joint resolution will -assure) your State
rights and ; personal liberties will melt
away as would the planets were they in
like manner drawn by the sun, their cen
tral power, from their respective orbits."
"if you succeed in doing this, you not
only overthrow our form of government,
but tear up it3 very foundations."
"Can wc approve ihe preseut proposi
tion, and hope, in the future, to control
any domestic relation of the State if the
centralized power at Washington says
nay 7 Assuredly not."
' "Can you preserve youT from of govern
ment if you permit a power existing out
side of. the State to regulate and control
the vote of the people within it? To ask
the question t is to answer it. Common
sense must teach you that the vital power
of the States, in their separate capacity is
gone, and 'you are governed by a cen
tralized depotism."
"What more fatal measure can be adopt
ed than the one now proposed."
. "A human being might as well be de
clared to live after the breath had left
the body, as a State to exist when it shall
have parted with this vital principle."
Now,-General, we take it for granted
that in usiug this language you were
speaking your true sentiments ; that you
verily believed that the Fifteenth Amend
ment "saps the very foundation of our
liberties," surrenders "the very citadel"
of those liberties, and "sets aside the
handiwork of the fathers of the republic;"
that under it our "State rights and per
sonal liberties will melt away," that it
"overthrows our form of government"
and "tears up its very foundation," that
it is a "faint measure," and that it leaves
the State dead devoid all "vital princi
ple' .
Very good. If you thought so, then,
you were right in saying so. Rut, do
you think so etill ? If not, why do you
not take back the many hard things you
said then, and acknowledge, like a man,
that .you were all . wrong, and that all
these mutterings were but the sickly va
pors of a diseased brain ?
, Rut, General William M'Candless, if
you oo- think so still (and wo take it
for granted you do), how, as a good citi
zen, much less as a good Democrat, can
you now "acquiesce" in an amendment
so revolutionary, so fraught with direful
consequences, and confess your willing
ness to treat it as an integral part of the
Constitution 1 Either you were vapor
ing, then, or you cannot be honest, now.
No honest man, no good citizen, can ac
quiesce in an amendment which he char
acterizes as "surrendering the very cit
adel of our liberties," sapping the very
foundations" of our government, a -'fatal
measure" which destroys the very life of
the State. If he ' believes this, he is a
a recreant to his State and a traitor to his
principles if he now "acqniesccs" in it all
simply because it is an accomplished fact.
Wc leave to the accomplished William
the task of wriggling out ol thi9 dilem
ma. If o is either a false prophet or a
traitor knave. If what he said in 1S00
was mere buncombe or blarney for effect,
he is an unfit man for any public trust.
And if that speech was the honest utter
anco of what lie really thought and be
lieved, he is of all men the most danger
ous, because he now expresses a willing
ness to submit to what he believes to be
a fundamental wrong, and thus confesses
that, no matter bow wrong . a thing may
be he will submit to without resistance.
In 1S69 he regarded the Fifteenth.
Amendmeut as a usurpation and revolu
tionary. In 1871, the usurpation and re
volution being accomplished, he submits
without further cavil ; and then he gives
the world notice that be, William M'Cand
less, docs not resist, but acquiesces in
usurpations and revolutions when they
are successful, no matter how destructive
they may be to civil liberty. What he
wants an ofijee; and it is all one to him
if it is under a government which, accord
ing to his own fchowing, has been over
turned. Over a thousand ex-Confederates met

A Grave Affair. A manufacturer
of tombstones lately received a call from
a countryman who wanted a stone to place
over the grave of his mother. After look
ing around for some time, and making
sundry remarks about the the taste of his
deceased mother, he finally pitched upon
one which the stone cutter had prepared

Kfllll llfi. "Kilt" om.i ihn
said he. "Rut," said the manufacturer,
"that belongs to another man, and has
Mrs. Perry's name cut on it ; it wouldn't
do for your mother." "Oh, ye3, it would,"
said the countayman ; "she couldu't read !
And, besides," he continued, as he
observed the wonderment of the stone
cutter, "Perry was always a favorite name
of hers, any how "
Rattlesnake stories have been a great
diversion with the Western press lately.
It i3 thrillingly related that near Lans
boro, Minn., a stout Norwegian girl was
walking along the road, when an immense
snake suddenly struck at her from the
grass beside the path. She had no weapon
and no time to run, as the snake's head
wa3 high in air, already to strike j so turn
ing upon her enemy, she resolutely kept
her eyes directed on those of the monster,
and swung her foot back and forth, to
prevent the reptile from fastening its
fangs thereon. In a few miuutes, which
seemed like ages to the heroine, her
chance came, and she planted her heel
firmly oa the snake's head, and with a
stone cut o3f nineteen rattles.
How Much There Is. An English
writer has been engaged in estimating the
amount of gold in the world in bulk.
He says it could melted iuto a lump
be contained in a cellar twentv-four feet
square by sixteen feet in depth. Says,
too, that all the boasted wealth taken from
the gold mines of California and Austria
could be melted and put into an iron safe
nine feet high and nine feet square. A
small lump indeed to cause as much labor
aud sacrifice as it has to obtain it.
About Milk. There were 1,700 sam
ples of milk inspected in Boston last
year, of which C10 were more or less
adulterated. The whole number of
complaints made fur the year were 206.
The number of gallons daily supplied the
city of Roston for the year ending on the
1st of April, 1871, was 28.310: daily
cost to consumers, 7,027.44; yearly
cost to consumers, SUj.olft.GO.

Corn Husking;
Machine,
The following is the account of a
machine lately invented by a clergyman,
for husking corn and gathering the fod
der. It should attract th
farmers . The machine j3 on two wheels
and drawn by two horses. It operates on
tne outsiue row of corn, passing con-
tinuously around the field. The stalks in
each hill are all cut off at once by two
circular cutters, revolving toward each
other, at the front of the machine. The
stalks are carried thence, buts first, by
revolving arms and an endless apron to a
pair of fluted rollers, which grasp the
stalks and carry fhem rar.idly thronh.
The ears, however, being too large to pass
between the rollers, are pushed out of tha
husks in the neatest and most effective
manner. This is because the joint of tho
ear with the stalk is the weakest poin;
and easily broken by contact with the
roller. The cars fall into a hnnrrr nnrl
are taken np by an elevator to a trough,
whence they slide iDto a wagon that ac
companies the machine, and carries thn
corn to the granary. The stalks with tho
huks entire are passed between the rollera
to a platform, and when snfiieipnt. fnr
bundle is accumulated, it opens and drops
them on the ground ready for binding
and stacking. The machine is provided
with an arrangement by which tho corn,
when it has fallen can be lifted off tho
ground and brought in eontact with tho
saws. Provision is also made for cutting
corn while crcen. and niacins it in
j f r - -
bundles without husking; that process to
bo tho subject of another operation nf
passing between the rollers when the enrn
(has become perfectly ripe. It is worthy
or note that tne nusking is accomplished
without shelling a grain of corn. One
man and four boys with thrco horses have
run a working model of the machine, and
cut and husked corn at the rate of ten
acres per day, saving the stalks and husks,

With an eye to the interests of our
agricultural readers, wo give below a
variety of hints, maxims and suggestions
from what we know about farming.
He prudent in planting ; one corn is of
ten enough for an acher, and if you must
leave anything out, why, drop your pota
toes.
Keep your rakes in cood order Re
formed rakes make good husband men.
Farmers are not expected to be men of
letters, but it is generally understood that
you will make A while the sun shines.
Your field may be "furrowed with
care," but it canuot "be harrowed by the,
recollection."
Even your jrrief mav bo of a mnvin
character, for if there are no horses, the
rarmcr s sjtcers will move the plow.
No matter how much work von h
on foot keep your tow out of flax.
loumust remecibor which arn tha
most noisy vegetables the potato balls ;
and you cau make a pumpkin holler.
Jvecp in mtnil the active ones ; beans
will run : you can see the cornstako in
the fiSld and one vino that you plant may
uuu nop wncn it comes up.
Ion t let your cattle stray : thev often
wander off to the most mystorious places ;
wo once saw a cowhide in a shoemaker's
shop.
Rest locks for vour barn in winter
Bullocks.
