preparing fire wood for winter and
in drawing out and spreading manure.
Make the weeds trrow and then kill
them next spring. To do this plow
nnd harrow as much as possible.
Prilling is better than sowing
wheat broadcast. It deposits the
seed more evenly, and deposits it in
the moist earth.
Salt on rich land often proves a
good fertilizer for wlieat. Sow two
to five bushels per acre before putting
in wheat.
The depth of sowing is regulated
by the character of the soil. It would
le well Dot to cover the seed more
than an inch deep.
A VfacraHe Bridal Part-.
The city jf Mansfield, Ohio, will
wear the brass collar this fall, for send
ing the sensational wedding party to
the Cincinnati Exposition, and doing
the thing up handsomely, too. On
Friday they arrived in Cincinnati
from the place named a gentleman,
seveuty one years of age, with a bran
splinter new bride, who doesn't blush
much at the thought that sixtv sweet
summers have passed over her devo
ted head. A bridal tour, of course,
was the prime caue of these venera
ble people leaving Lome, and a view
of the Exposition, which occupied all
the first day after their arrival, the
secondary (they were married in
the morning) and in the evening
they remained at their hotel, too
much fatigued to venture out in the
city by gas-light. During the night
the happy groom, who is a practicing
physician of fortv-five vcars' stand
ing, was taken quite ill, and has been i
confined to his room ever since. The !
attending physician says it is a slight
touch of billious fever, but the patient
says his illness was ' brought on by
too much excitement in the crowd at
the Exposition." He is now doing
as well as could Iks expected under
the circumstances.
Typhoid rever and lailei-lpd MilU.
Frequent mention Las
within the past week or
cable dispatches of the
typhoid fever in certain
London. The cause of

iwcn made
two in the
ravapes of
districts of
the disease
to infected
milk. The question of the depend
ence ol typhoid fever upon th upe of
impure and contaminated milk is now
deeply agitating the citizens of Lon
don, and in fact all the cities of Great
Britain. I a support of this assertion,
a writer ia the Philadelphia Bulletin
says:
"I may mention the lact that two
recent puccessive numbers of the Brit
ish Medical Journal, which is the or
gan of the Pritish Medical Associa
tion, contained one, six, and the other
nine, articles on this fcingle subject.
The ease with which milk absorbs
noxious effluvia of any kind is only
too well known to housekeepers.
The presence of a wooden shelf in a
refrigerator will often in;part so dis
agreeable oder and flavor to milk
which has Wen kept in it over night
that children, to whom it is offered
without the disguise of tea or coffee,
will reject it at once. Its capacity
for taking up pernicious and infectious
material floating in the atmosphere,
and so introducing a deadly poison,
is not less well established."'
How KssokiMs; Tosseea la Prepared.
The tobacco as it comes from the
plantation is dried to the utmost, and
passed through a mill in which a re
volting cylinder armed with small
projections, grates it into tiny parti
cles. It is then by the same machine
sifted through a series of reives simi
lar to those of a wheat fan, that which
is left upon the upper nd coarser
sieves being pasted and repassed (
through the mill until nifficiently Cne
for use. For this it is unnecessary j

The postoffico principle has always
been that the government was not re
sponsible for the loss of letters sent
through the mails. While the law
absolutely prohibited the citizen from
; choosing his own method for the con
j veyance t.f letters other than by his
with i own servants or special agents, and
: forbade the setting up of the business
j of carrying letters by citizens who
would be responsible for their safe
delivery, it has always compelled tlie
people to' ti?e the government mails
and run the risk. The injustice rc-
suits from lie character of the gov -
crnment monopoly, and it has l.aea
useless to protest against it. ton -
scions, hcv. cver, of the disgraceful
i scious, ucv.cver, oi lue tiir-tjiutxiui
impropriety ol the compulsory provi -
sions of the law, the United States
I authorities many years aj,-o establish -
j cd a regulation which it was snppos -
I cd might ojicrate as a check upon the
; loss of valuable letters. 1 he regis -
, tration of letters was introduced in
the postoflicrs. It was claimed that
;' a missing letter might be traced more !
certainly if registered. i
The advantage the government'
offered the citizen, if he t hose to take
the risk of registry, but it did not!
guarantee him a safe delivery or ae-;
countabilitv in case of loss. The re-;
suit of the registration of letters has
not been yery satis sactory. Many
persons lielieve that the precaution
is worse than if none had been taken,
and the opinion has been expressed
that registering a letter is nothing
more than giving notice that it is
worth stealing. The regulations for
the transmission of registered letters
have never been as complete as they
should be. Such letters were gener
ally placed in packages and transpor
ted in the ordinary mail bags, otter
ing great temptation to thieves in
postofliccs, with facilities of taking
awav the letters.
It is proof of the slowness with
which government officials take hold
of unaccustomed ideas that just about
this time the Postofliee Department
lias discovered that a better plan may
be adopted for transmitting register
ed letters than had been formerly in
use. The Philadelphia Inquirrr says
(that special pouches are to le prepar
jed for these letters, with Fpecial locks
which cannot be opened but by the
postmaster and distributing ofliecrs.
I'y this arrangement the danger of
tbft loss of letters will be diminished.
Under the present system a thief may
make wav with a few letters without

The i:ieuiet of m Home.
The following wholesome advice
uttered by Theodore Parker is well
worthy of perusal by many of our
readers :
"I never saw a garment too fine for
man or maid; there was never a
chair too good for a cobbler, or cooj
er, or king to sit in ; never a house
to fine to f-helter the human head.
These elements about us, the gor
geous f-ky, tlie imperial sun, are
not too good for the human race.
Elegance fits man. But do we not
Value these tools of housekeeping a
little more than they are worth, and
sometimes mortgage a home for the
mahogany we would bring into it ?
I had rather eat my dinner off the
head of a flour barrel, or dress after
the fashion of Joba the Baptist in the
wilderness, or sit on a block all my
lite, than consume all myself before J
get to a home and take so much pains
with the outside that the inside was
as hollow ns an empty nut. Beauty
is a great thing, but beauty of gar
ments, house and furniture is a very
tawdry ornament compared with do
mestic love. All the elegance in the
world will not make a home, and I
would rive more for a spoonful of
real
hearty love than for a whole
ship load of furniture, and all the
gorgeousness that all the upholstrrers
of the world could gather together.
The Gainesville Gazette says:
Nancy Hill, the notorious female
horse-thief and ranger, was hanged
about six miles from Montague, on
Denver creek, several davs since.
Her bodr has just been discovered
suspended from a post-oak. Her
sauuie ana untile were Jvinjr near
upon a rock, and her pony was found
a mile or eo away. It is supposed
tnai uave l'orter, tier consort, was
killed at the same time, but his body
has not yet been found. The wo
man Hill and Porter were together
only a short disiancc ahead of their
pursuers when last seen, which was
at Victoria Peak, on Thursday even

; j nav:3 Presidiii!r. this difficulty
presented itself. The trial impend
ing was for murder, and the largo
panel summoned for the purpose was
nearly exhausted. The name of an
intelligent Hebrew gentleman was
called, who took the stand, and was
a-kcd the usual questions as to wheth
er he had read the papers and fjrm-
ed ah opinion as to the guiitorin-j
noeeuce of the prisoner. He answer-j
ed that he had not. He w as next m
terogated as to whether he haJ con
scientous scruples as to hanging in
case of con v iction of murder, He an
swered that he had. The District
Attorney promptly objected to his be
ing accepted, and the gentleman was
ubout to retire, doubtless gratified at
not being compelled to endure the fa
tigue and anxiety of a long trial, when
the counsel for the prisoner said :
"Wait a moment if you please. !
l ou say you have scrupels in refer
ence to hanging for the crime of murder?-'
"I Lave," -v'as the reply.
"What is the nature of vour scru
ples ?'
"Well, sir, I am strongly and con
scientiously in favor of hanging peo
ple for murder!"
The prompt, blunt, altogether un
expected as well as unprecedented an

out the court-room, and took judge,

Nulled into
A few days ago a most ridiculous
affair happened in the harbor. An
ice ship from Boston entered the bay,
commanded by a Captain Green, in
the South. American trade. Fort
Santa Cruz, not recognizing his house
flag, hailed him, and ordered him to
"heave to." But the worthy skipper
didn't speak Portuguese, and the sim
ple statement of the name of his ves
sal, which he hurled at the fort, was
not at all satisfactory; so a blank shot
was fired as a mild suggestion for him
to stop. But he called for his revolv
er, and pointing it skyward, Bred six
successive shots.
Then a solid shot from the tort skip
ped across his Iww, and another, bet
ter aimed, passed through bis fore
sail. The fort and two shore batter
ies opened Ere upon him, and several
of his light spars were cut away.
But he held on his course rejoicing,
loading and firing his revolver. Fi
nally he reached quarantine and came
to anchor just as his flying jib boon
went by the board. He was then so
near the other shipping that they
dared fire on him no longer, and the
police boat, the custom house boat
and the health boat all boarded him,
together with the Captain of the port
who, with more vigor than politeness,
wanted to know "Why in he didn't
heave!" "Heave to !" ejaculated tbe
astounded skipper, "was that what
you wanted? Good lord ! I thought
you was salutin' the American flag!"
"Diablo !" shouted the officers in cho
rus, and set the case down as addi
tional evidence of the lunacy which
they regarded as a necessary ingredi
ent of the American character.
Modoc Kite Over (be Dead.
The San Francisco Bulletin of
September 24th says: The project
of preserving and exhibiting tbe re
mains of Captain Jack, the Modoc
chieftain, now under sentence of
death, Las been abandoned by Mr.
Sherwood, the cmbalmcr, on account
of General SchoCeld's recent order
that tho bodies of the Modocs must
not be mutilated after death. If the
Modocs arc allowed to follow the tra
ditions of their tribe, they will burn
tho bodies of the executed warriors,
and hold various savage ceremonies.
When Curly-Headed Jack committed
suicide at Lost River Bridge, several
squaws of the Cottonwood faction
attempted self-mutilation, and bad
not the officers relieved them of a
case-knife the results would undoubt
edly have been very serious. Should
the sentence of death be carried out
in the case of Jack and L13 confeder-
offQ
the mourning Modocs, especial
ly the females, will be watched with
extreme vigilance to prevent the
plucking of hair and slashing of flesh.
Tbe rumor that tbe Elamaths are nnj
gry at tbe course of the government
is an absurd one. The Klamaths, at
a lri!e, have a strong dislike to Jack's
Modocs, on general principles, tbe
old hatred never having died out,
and will witness the execution with
as ritifti cnli.r.nlifn no fitir Biw!iir.
