Being one of those farmer's sons
who would have an education if I
could, I want to bay a word on the
education of farmer's Sons generally.
It is quite common for them to be
tijwkcn of as verdant, frlovenifh, etc.
adjectives which conic doubly cut
ting whn those to whom they are
applied feel them to be true to a cer
tain degree, yet are ignorant of the
way in which they might improve.
The feeling that this is the inevitable
result of life on the farm, has done
much to mate the profession unpopu
lar, and has had no email influence
in nending those who were born there,
and were well fitted to conduct its
business successfully, away to the
village or city, to engage in some
thing that would at least free them
from this fault ,
Why nH'd a farmer's son, any more
than any other, be an ignoramus or a
clown, even though he cannot get
more than a common school educa
tion? Nearly all can get this; and
Then the same amount of application
that would )e necessary to make it
complete under the most favorable
circumstances, would do very much
towards it, even iu their homes, in
the spare hour they luifrht find, which
arc so generally wasted. Hooks and
pajK-rs can be obtained at a rate that
is, to some extent, within the reach
of all. Vet it is not enough to rvad,
siniplj ; it must be with eonie dcCnite
purpose. There are cords of books
and papers that leave one worse than
they found him, and farmers arc the
very ones who encourage their pro
duction by buying them, these pa-.
jxts, from the character of their sto
ries, do more harm among farmers'
children than anywhere lc, because
they do not have enough society
most of the time to counteract their
influence. The tendency toward
light reading is so strong as to produce
permanent injury. The country is
flooded with stories. They come in
books, magazines, and papers, end
are read by farmers' families general
ly, with far too little discrimination.
The effect is to destroy all taste for
more solid reading that requires a
Rtronger effort of the mind, and im
parts more valuable information. Vet
this solid reading that makes think
ing necessity, should 1m? the ground
work upon which to build an educa
tion, and the lighter kinds should on
ly be used as a recreation. There is
much of it that should not be read
at alL
Most of th farmers with whom I
am acquainted arc comparatively un
educated, and from not having its ad
vantages themselves, fail to appreci
ate its valu to their children, who are
growing up to Ell the places of their
parents with very few ideas beyond
the business of the farm. It is this
willful blindness to their own true in
terests that makes so large number of
fanners incapable of taking a higher
position in society. You mutt talk to
them of farmine or ther arc not in
terested. Their minds narrow down
to their own-petty interests, and they
wear themselves out to accomplish
what an educated mind would do with
case. Many of them are not consci
ous of their own defects, and are the
most difficult to get along with in the
town or church, because their minds
work perpetually in the same old rut.
Farmers do not think enough.
They use their muscles more freely
than they do their intellects, which
are weak for want of exercise. If
they cannot get this at the right time
ana in me usual pmcc unucr inMruc- ;
tors, inev ougui to uave a, cour- oi
reading that would produce a similar
effect unon the mind, and fit them not I
only to form, but alao to express opin-
4 ,
ions upon those questions
sns that concern
them in common with others.
This 1
would give a new rest to life, and
would tit them to do their own work
better and easier, while as citizens
they would far excel their present
reputation. A kos.
The Value of I'uMrKixs. Last
year I raised twenty ox-cart loads of
pumpkins with corn from an acre.
The cart would hold forty bushels of
potatoes. I consider them a valuable
food for stock, taking into considera
tion how cheaply they can b raised.
I undertook to dry in my apple dry
house some for market, and was of
fered five cents per pound. I found
that a green pumpkin weighing from
fifteen to twenty pounds would make
about one pound of wall-dressed dry
pumpkin, and that it would pay bet
ter to dry them for my hogs (as it
could bo dona very cheap) than it
would to sell.
I soaked the dry pumpkin in milk
and fad the same to the hogs they
gained fast I also dried quite an
amount and barreled it to feed them
with this summer. I fd my sherp
upon the green ones two months, and
it did very much toward fattening
forty, which I 6old for mutton, and
the "forty which I wintered never did
better. I commenced to feed my
cattle in September, end fed some
every day until February. It saved
a vast amount of feed. I aim plant
ing but a small piece of corn, and
wish to raise a large amount of pump
kins, so I plant them with my Early
Rose potatoes ; their tops die early,
which will let in the sun and give
pumpkins a chance to grow. Cor.

Sakdspocts ix Nevada. For sev
eral hours there were visible from
Tirrinia Citv. Nevada, on Twentv-
one milt Pesart, five or six tall col
umns of eand, sucked up by as many
whirlwinds. At sea, these would
have been waterspouts, but upon the
desert they were onlv what we call
sandspouts. The columns ajteared
to be ten feet in diameter and one
thousand feet iu height Although
they waltzed about over the plain for
two or three Lours, they never came
together or never lost their cylindrical
from, and when they did go down
they went down at once, all falling to
eether. These sandspouts, says a local
paper, are well known to all old pros
pectors and seem to indicate a change
of weather. We have frequently seen
in the Forty mile Desert, east of the
lower Sink of tho Carson, not less
than ten or fifteen of these tall sand
columns moving about over the plains
at the same time. It is seldom that
they come together, but when they
do they dart forward like two flashes
of lightning, and an explosion like a
heavy blast ends all, and the two
columns of sand at once fall to the
ground. Those who have not been
upon our great deserts and who have
never witnessed these grand sand
spouts or the wonderful mirages,
have but little idea of the romantic
grandeur of these apparently unin
teresting wastes of sand.

IIb Fhtlllps for !. Wfcy he
Aheald be Mappvrted racralni;
4iroeleT ernel Hmur.
..Wendell Fhillips has written a long
letter to certain colored citizens of
Boston, in which he gives his reasons
for supporting General Grant and op
posinn Mr. Greeley. We offer th fol
lowing extracts:
Of course, the first thought that oc
curs to you and me just now is, that
one of your best, ablest, and moet
watchful friends. Mr. Senator Sum
ner, advises you to. vote for Horace
Greeley, and believes that your rights
will be safe in his keeping. I touch
with reverent hand everything from
Mr. Sumner.. I can never forget his
measureless services to the anti-slavery
cause and to your race. When
ever I read his words, I read them
overshadowed by the memory of his
early and entire consecration to the
services of impartial liberty of that
real that has never flagged that
watchfulness which has seldom been
deceived of that devotion which has
so rarely shrunk from any sacrifice
which no opposition could tire and no
danger appal. From such a counsel
lor i venture to differ with great reluc
tance, and only after mature delibera
tion. I should hesitate to publish my
dissent if I were not sure that I was
right, and that he was wrong that
the occasion was very important
and his mistake one which leads to
fatal results.
You remember that in 186S I em
phatically denied General Grant's fit
ness for the Iresidcncv. Derided by
the Republican press, I went from city
to city protesting against his election.
Iu private with Mr. Sumner and oth
ers, I argued long and earnestly
against the risk of putting such a man
into such an office. At the same time
they saw only his great merit, and
supported him heartily. The defects
of his administration are no surprise
to me. I may say, without boasting,
that I prophesied those defects. I do
not wish to hide them to-day. I en
tirely agree with Mr. Sumner as to
the grave fault and intolerable inso
lence of the administration in the
Santo Domingo matter. I think the
frequent putting of relatives into office
highly objectionable, and the sad ca
reer of Webster is warning enough
against any man in public life ventur
ing to accept gifts from public men.
1 hose and other defects are no sur
prise to me.
The South has often announced
in the last instance by the lips of Jef
ferson Davis that the cause was not
lost, and must be won by getting
possession of the Government and
leaving us in the opposition. Such is
the present plot. That Mr. Greeley
sees it would never prevent his aid
ing it That Mr. Sumner does sec it
is no matter of profound astonishment
At such a moment the regular Repub
lican party becomes again the accept
ed and onlv iastance of resistance.
and Grant represents loyalty as Lin
cola did in 1861. I do not care for
his defects, wcra they ten times great
er. Chatham and Junius rightfully
forgot even the infamy of Wilkins
when he stood the representative and
symbol of the rights of a British sub
ject Kven if I accepted Air. Sum
ner s portrait or 1 resident Grant
which in some senses is true, but in
no sense is the whole truth I should
still vote for him against a rebellion at
the ballot-box, to which disloyalty
rives all the strength, and childish

exception of Mr. Sumner, no lead-
rag KepuWican docs really put any
faith in those pretensions. Theirs is
not a case of delusion. They arc,
hypocrites, not dupes. They know
wvll the plot, and lor the sake of of
fice are willing to help it and risk the
consequences. They know that Mr.
Greeley s election means the negro
surrender to the hate of the Southern
States, with no interference from the
nation in his behalf; that it means
the constitutional amendments neu
tralised by a Copperhead Congress,
our debt tampered with, and our
bond falling 30 per cent in every
market. The Democratic millionaire
who is willing to risk this has al
ready '"hedged." He holds millions
of Confederate bonds, and is plotting
to make o them more than enough
to pay four times over all that he
lotcs on the national securities, and
then safely laugh at the small bond
holders he has duped.
If General Grant is set aside, who
is offered us in his place? Horace
Greeley. I need not tell you, my
friends, what Horace Greeley is. We
abolitionists know him too well in
the weary years of our struggle. He
had enough of dear moral vision to
see the justice of our cause. But he
never had emirago enough to confess
his faith. If events had given him
the courage he never would have had
principle enough to risk anj-thing for
an idea. A trimmer by nature and
purpose, he has abused even an Amer
ican politician's privelege of trading
piiaciples for kuccchs. But for lack of
ability he would have been the chief
time server of his age. I never knew
till now any of his ulogists so heed
less and undiseriminating as evjen to
claim that he was a sincere man. As
for his honesty, for twenty years it
has been the by word with us that it
would be safe to leave your open
purse in the same room with him ;
but as for any other honesty, n.o one
was ever witless enough to connect
the idea with his name.
Mr. Sumner trusts him as a '"life
time abolitionist" This is certainly
news to you and me. You and I
know well, when abolitionist was a
term of reproach, how timidly he
held up his skirts about him, careful
to put a wide distance between him
self and us. You will find few work
ing abolitionists, who stood in the
trenches from 1840 to I860, willing to
trust the negro race to Horace Gree
ley. I can remember the day when
he and his fellow-Republicans quot
ed our criticisms upon them as cer
tificates that they were no abolition
ists. We can give him just such a
certificate now with a clear consci
ence. Judged by the files of the
Tribune itself, there never was an
hour when Horace Greeley could
have been trusted with the care of
the black man's rights.. No man has
known better than he how to manu
facture political and pecuniary suc
cess ont of the convictions of other
men. For himself he never had a
conviction. Men contrast his former
praise of General Grant with his
fault-finding now; and neither his
praise nor his blame ia of any ac
count ; neither comes from the heart ;
both are measured and weighed out
with shrewd calculation for effect
Examine the files of the Tribune
You will 6ee that whenever men's
convictions on any subject have got a
keen edge, Mr. Greeley was always
ready to blunt them with a compro
mise. He is only acting now the
text he has always played. Men
augh when some stirring and loyal
sentence is quoted from the Tribune
of 1863 and 1864, nnd Horace Gree
ley immediately proves that he did
not write it, but you and I know that
three-quarters of tho loyalty of the
Tribune was smuggled into it in his
absence, or in spito of him. If his
letter to Mr. Lincoln, during the
dark years of 1862 and 1863, arc ever
published, the world will see, what
vou and I have always known, that
he could hardly have aided the Con
federacy more unless he had enlisted
in its Cabinet
If as Mr. Sumner says, Mr. Greeley
is a "lifetime abolitionist" how comes
it till within three years Mr. Sumner
hardlyever got a kind word and never
had any hearty support from the
Tribune t How often have Mr. Sum
ner's friends heard him expatiate at
length on this point ? On the floor
of Congress he has stood for many a
year tho incarnation of the anti-
slavcry movement But he has again
and again complained that instead of
giving him any support tho Tribune
has constantly belittled his efforts and
Iiut obstacles in his way, cheering
lis opponents and carpi ug at his
measures, or at best damning them
with faint praise. My recollection
of these well-grounded complaints is so
fresh that I look at Mr. Sumner's
picture of Mr. Greeley with unfeigned
astonishment. Even the supiKised
conversion of the Southern Rebels is
not so wonderful as that of the Trib
une into a supporter of Charles Sum
ner. We put aside with scorn it deserves
the insult it implied in preaching to
us forgivness and conciliation. An
dersonvillo and Libby prison are
still living horrors. Besides the
thousands who were starved there,
hundreds still drag out dreary lives
in our streets, poisoned all through
bv that dread cruelty. The graves
of seven white native Georgia loyal
white men, ruthlessly shot down in
the streets, arc hardly yet covered.
The first-born of a hundred thousand
households are still freshly mourned.
Meanwhile thanks to the unparal
lellcd mercy ,thc unutterable generosi
ty of the nation ninetv-nine out of
every hundred . Confederate soldiers
enjoy to-day all the rights they had
before the war. I dare not fix the
epithet I think fitting to that mood of
mind which deems it necessary ana
becominir to preach to such a commu
nity the duty of forgiveness ! I wish
my voice could be heard by every
colored man down to the Gulf; not
because they need my advice. No;
they understand and see their danger
But I should like to rally them to
help us a second time to save the na
tion. I should say to them "Vote,
every one of you, for Grant, as you
value property, life, wife, or child. If
Greeley is elected, arm, concentrate,
conceal your property but organize
for defense. You will need it soon
and sadly."
JF.Kl SALEM.
Of all the cities of the globe, Jeru
salem has been the most memorable
for its divine honors, in prophetic
distinctions, and its misfortunes. Its
original name was Salem ; its first
king said to be Melchizedec; and the
proposed offering of Isaac .was said
to have been on Mount Moriah, one
of its three hills, afterward the site of
the Temple. Jerusalem was conquer
ed in the time of Joshua. Its history I
was thenceforth a succession of sieges.
It was recovered by the Canaanites,
and re-taken and burned by Joshua;
then captured by the Jebusites, and
finally captured by David, in his res
toration of the fallen glories of Isra
acl. Its lofty position and evident
strength determined the conqueror to
make it his capital ; and leaving He
bron, and rejecting the opulent fertil
ity and natural loveliness of Samaria,
he fixed bis throne in the citidel of
the Jebusites, and named it the "City
of David."
Jerusalem stands nearly central
between the Mediterranean and the
Jordan thirty-seven miles east of
the former, and twenty-three west of
the latter. David brought the ark
within its gates with great pomp, and
fixed the site of the temple on Mount
Moriah; but the erection of the
Temple was appointed to his still
greater son. The reign of Solomon
was the summit of Jewish grandeur,
and the building of the Temple was
the summit of the grandeur of Solo
mon. It was the most magnificent
edifice ever raised by man ; not mere
ly for its position on the pinnacle of
the sacred mountain, or for us noble
architecture, but for its splendor.
Wherever gold, cedar or marble could
be shown,- it was all gold, cedar, or
marble.
When Solomon, in advanced years,
fell into idolatry, evil was declared
against Israel. The kingdom of Da
vid was shorn of its strength by the
loss of the ten tribes, and the eivi ,
war terminated only in their captiv
ity. Judah still retained its royalty
for 130 years longer, until the Assyr
ian invasion, when the city was
stormed and the Temple was burned
by Nebuchadnezzer, and lost its inde
pendence as a kingdom forever. Re
stored, after a captivity of seventy
years in Babylon, it returned only to
an enfeebled vassalage and a ruined
Temple even saw its commonwealth
recovered only to fall again ; and af
ter suffering the repeated suprema
cies of Syrian Egyptian and Roman,
finally perished as a nation by the
Roman sword.
Yet the city was not wholly de
serted. But an attempt of the em
peror, in the year 141 of the Chris
tian era, to make it a Roman fortress
rased an insurrection which was ex
tinguished in national blood, and con
cluded the national ruin.
For nearly two centuries more Jer
usalem was forgotten by the world.
At length, on the accession of Con
stantine to the imperial throne, the
Empress Helena is presumed to have
made a pilgrimage to the wreck of
the city to discover the sites made
memorable by the history of our
Lord (a. d. 326). Constantine re
pealed the edict excluding the Jews
from entering Jerusalem, but he al
lowed their entrance only once in the
year to weep over the destruction of
the city. The ages of monachism
followed; and in the reign of Justin
ian a man of whom history has
scarcely yet decided whether he was
a philosopher or a dupe, a warrior or
a dastard, a restorer or destroyer of
empire the site of Jerusalem was
adorned once more, according to the
custom of the time, by building a su
perb church on Mount Moriah to the
Virgin (JL D. 527). He also built a
succession of convents in the neigh
borhood of Jerusalem and Jericho,
and hospitals for the pilgrims of both
these cities.
But evil days were at hand. A
Persian invasion of the Greek empire
rushed on Syria (a. d. 614), broke the
emperor's army, and stormed Jerusa
lem with desperate slaughter. AH
now was rapine ; but the Persians at
length retreated and. the Emperor
Heraclius entered the city, bearing
the Cross on his shoulder. A still
more formidable trial awaited this
"City of misfortune." Mohammed
ravaged Arabia, Egypt and Syria.
The torrent of fire and steel rolled on
Palestine. Jerusalem was besieged
(a. d. 637), and, after a desperate de
fense, was taken. Omar, the con
queror, then built the mosquo which
still stands on the spot once hallowed
by the Temple.
Jerusalem now rested, powerless
and enslaved, for two centuries and a
half: but the tenth century raised a
1 new spirit in Europe formidable to
Mohammedan supremacy. A roman-
' a.! v -1 r it.i ai. i i . ?
lie uenei turn me worm was coining
to its end in the year 1,000 urged a
multitude of pilgrims to the Holy
Land. Its masters laid a tribute on
the pilgrims. The insults and injur
ies inflicted by tho Arabs on those
European strangers became the uni
versal rumor, and roused the universal
wrath of Europe. In the tenth nnd
eleventh centuries Jerusalem had
passed from the Saracens to tho
Egyptian Khalifs, from these to the
Turcomans, and from them to the
Egyptians again. In this period of
doubt and distraction the army or the
Crusaders under Godfrey of Bouillon
appeared before Jerusalem, (a. p.
I09i); the city was stormed; after a
siege of forty days the Moslems were
exterminated, the Mosque of Omar
was consecrated as a Christian
church, and the successful command
er was proclaimed King of Jerusalem.
The Christians preserved their con
quest eighty-eight years.
Iu the twelfth century the Sultan
Saladin, an Arab hero, captured the
city, threw down the Cross, and puri
fied the holy places with rose-water.
The prince a man of great bravery,
sagacity and success restored the
fortifications of Jerusalem on the ap
proach of Richard Ceeur do Lion (a.
p. 1102.)After the death of Saladin
it fell successively into tho hanuls of
every invader of Syria Mamaluke,
Christian and Turk" In the sixteenth
century its walls were rebuilt by the
Turkish Sultan, Soliman the Magnifi
cent (a. d. 1642), whose inscription
remains over the Jaffa gate. Even
in the present century this "City of
lassitudes'' has changed masters,
falling into the possession of Mchcm
et Ali, the Pasha of Egypt, in his
Syrian invasion (a. d. 1832). From
him, however, it was wrested, with
all his Syrian conquests (a. p. 1841,
and restored to the Ottoman govern
ment, under which it now rests.
The Jewish nation, exiled from
their Temple, city and country, have
lccn dispersed all over-the world,
harassed by plunder and persecution
during the vast period, the seventeen
centuries, which have passed since
their national ruin. But a change
has already begun. The Jew in all
nations is sharing the protection of
the law and the jossession of proper
ty. It is to the honor of America
that this change was begun by her,
and that as she has long taken the
lead in liberty, morals, and religion,
she set the example of acknowledg
ing the claims of the Jews to the fellow-feeling
of mankind.
Then and Xw Crl Hrkurz ia ltttS

Some of the German papers are
amusing their readers with an illus
tration of Senator Schurz'a versatil
ity. In 1SC8 Senator Doolittle, of
Wisconsin, in a speech, denounced
the Republican Government of the
South as a " military despotism more
horrible than any ever endured bv
the Poles, Hungarians, or Irishmen."
Mr. Schurn, speaking in Chicago
shortlv afterwards, referred to Mr.
Doolittle as that " paltry statesman of
Wisconsin who delights the public
with his undertaker's wit and comic
al earnestness." As to the charge of
oppression in the South, Sehurz said
that " If made by a sensation news
paper, a pothouse politician at a ward
meeting, or by Andrew Johnson, it
might be allowed to pass, but when a
Senator of the United States comes
before the people and compares the
acts of the military government in
the South to the cruelties practiced in
Poland and Hungary, he deserves
chastisement Ho must either le
more ignorant than an average school
boy or have a love for deliberate mis
representation incompatible with the
character of an honorable man. I
understand that Senator Doolittle has
travelled in Europe. I think it would
have been a useful employment of his
time had he taken from a German
school boy some elementary instruc
tion in European history."
And then Mr. Sehurz went on to
give gome details to show what mili
tary despotism in Europe really
means. The comparison of the two
speeches is amusing, in which the
Sehurz of 1868 and 1872 express
themselves on the 6amc subject. True,
fairness properly suggests that what
was not a fact four years ago may be
a fact now. But the explanation
suggested is not satisfactory, as the
impression is irresistible that the
speaker in both cases is one of those
highly-gifted rhetoricians who can
descant with equal emotion and equal
effect on either side of the same shield,
fully persuaded that he is quite in
earnest all the time. The simple
truth is that whatever mistakes may
have been made in the reconstruction
and general treatment of tho South,
there has been no military despotism
there, and when Senator Sehurz, in
1 872repeats and applies Uie words with
which he so severely rebuked Sena
tor Doolittle in 18C8, he lays himself
open to the charge, not of ignorance,
but of misrepresentation.
