Lie ?"
I'robably there are aot two men in
eiUtenee ho would agr on all
points pertaining to building and
arranging a barn. I will, however,
give mr riews on these question,
without (Tiring any particular dimen
sions. When a barn is to be Lnilt
without any 6ide building f-r stabling
ciiile and borees, I know of no bet
ter way than to arrange it with
floor (a the centre to receire bay and
rrain oa the load, and with cattle
malls on one eide and eulls fr horses
oa the other. The bar and grain is
to be Btored above. This i'b the old
etyle, but I can see no way to im
prove it ia a single building. Let it
ie ample in size for the amount of
bay, grain, Ac , that it will be requir
ed to cover, and have the height cor
respond with the grouad dimensions,
but let the ports be as bigu as possi
ble, and have the barn ia good pro
portion, because the more room you
tave over the stalls the better, as few
or no faruMra ever found their biros
loo large. Give the roof the u-ual
pitch, and use pine t ingles of the
beat quality. Such thiuglfs may
con: from to $2. more tbaa a
eecond quality, but they will be the
cheapest in the end. Crude etrjl
emu applied to tLeiu after being laid
two ur three coat preserve
them from the weather, but why
thouid one eseud anything oa shin
pies tia-t will last twenty years un
protected ! It is doubtful whether i'
will pay to paint me ursi quamy oi
pine tbingles, or put oil on tbem.
The arraDgewenu of the btables
may be who, or without floors. It is
wtainly better for horses to atand
upoa the ground ; and although it is
the custom generally to floor cattle
and borsc stMe, yet I bave kept
tok in unflwred stalls for the rea
son that they are mora comfortable
ben cjws are Ijing dowa, tod their
urine is mostly saved, which U an
important consideration, being auou
Ily worth per cow. or horse, if all
we're Mired, not lees than $2" each
per annum. Some agricultural chem
ists estimate it to be worth annually
$50 per bead ; or that it contains by
analysis fertilizing qualities that
would cost '0 to purchase. Xow,
if a bed of clay, or heavy clayey soil,
be placed upoa the ground floor of the
stables, about six inches thick, then
met and packed bard, m ho a slight
depression in the centre just eaougb
to prevent the urine from running
war. it will be saved in the bedding,
which should b liberally supplied ;
and if the dung be properly managed,
this crine may be secured with
Acarcely any loea. Tight floors are
ometimes made, with a urine con
ductor in the rear to carry it to the
dung in a cellar under the stalls, but
when no such cellar exists, I think
the urine ran not be Raved in any
better manocr than I bave blued
aiove.
IS A CELLAR ADY ASTAIjEiiV S.
Ves, particularly a root cellar.
Let it be ender the barn floor, with
stairs leading to it ia A corner of the
floor and so enclosed as to keep out
frost. In this cellar there should be
large bins for different root crops to-
bo fed to stock curing the fall, winter
and spring. It can be lighted by a
Ljoople of two-pane windows ; and if
the Itarn foundation is not high
enough to admit such windows above
ground, an excavation may be made
Uii toe ground, and walled op, so as
Ito admit light through them. There
K ootbiDg about a barn so valuable
land important as such a cellar; but
hi must have a drain, if ubject to
water coming ia, or be covered. If
the barn if on a side bill, with the
rattle yard on tbe lower aide, the
mtrance to this cellar may be oa tbe
outside in the yard; and it might be
iere, perhaps, if tbe bara (s ob level
rround, by excavating and waiting
;p a side passage to tbe door. My
kdviee is, never build a bara without
x root cellar, as it will not cost much,
md it will pay for itself every winter,
f fi ilcd witu beets, carrots and tur-
bipa.
lb regard to a manure cellar cirect
y under tbe stalls, which are to be
Lrell floored ia this case, it is a good

po that manure can be hauled oat

bugle has made itself beard in tbe

It is unnecessary to allude to tbe
countless number of limes in which

Black hair indicates personal courage,

It appears that a young man nam
ed Jubal Shine arrived in Detroit
two day ago on one of the up river!
boats. It also appears that in due!
course of time he was found drank in
an Alley And takt n to the station
bouse, aod from thence sent to tbe
House of Correction for thirty days.
He left behind him a memorandum
book. ' It wou'd seem from the en
tries that Mr. Shine is a jouog rcsn
who desires to keep Limself posted,
and that aloo be is a close observer
of things, and a warm friend of bis
mother. The Eret entry . was made
as socn as he arrived. It reads:
"Beau anything I ever saw 1 Saw
four locomotives just now ia one
yard! Saw more'n a hundred barrels
of flour in one pile ! Saw over forty
horses soon as I got off the boat!
Saw a'luost three policemen the first
thing! Wish ma was here !"
After an interval of half an boar
be wrote a&iu : -
4 Counted 347 people on tbe streets
in ten minutes, and 'tisn't Fourth of
July either ! Saw over 300 grind
stones pi.ed up before one place
Counted eighteen teiegrapa wires on

He probably waited awhile again
before making bis third entry, which
re aa :
"I've counted more a uity etoros
)reedy ! Never saw such a place for
stores in uli my life I lielieve I've
seen over two hundred women! Just
went by a store where over
thirty pairs of breeches were baogiog
out: W ish ma was here.".
Some hours must bave elapsed
before be wrote agaio, as be began :
"I've seen more'n a million things !
Believe I've seen over six hundred
people! I've walked over a mile, aud
haven't come to tbe end of tbe city
yet! Boys aud girls walk right along
tbe same is anybody else, and I

S JOie time during the eveuiog he
wrote j
"Begiu to fvel as If I had always

His last entry was perhaps made
by starlight, after getting into the
alley. Tbe hand was unsteady, and
some of ia? words ran clear across
the page. It reads:

X'ew Yokk, Xovember 3. 1877.
TnE CIGAR MAKERS.
The cigar makers bave shown
more business capacity than is com
mon among laboring people wbo
strike for what they considder tbeir
rights. Tbey have completed their
organization, hare raised a very large
fund, and bave organized a "provis
ion kitchen," frop which the needy
strikers will be fed. Tbe provisions
are bought at the lowest wboles&le
price, and are distributed ia such
quantities as will keep tbe strikers in
good condition. Tbey have also se
cured tbe services ot physicians to
attend the members of the strikers'
families, and, in short have gone into
the business in a thoroughly system
atic way.
AS OLD SWINDLE REVIVED.
A sharper under tbe name of Ev
ans is flooding tbe country with ibis
letter:
Xew York City.
G. W. Green, Eq :
Your ticket, 9,450, has drawn a
bouse and lot in Jamacia, Q ieens
Co., X. Y, valued by commission
ers of taxes at $2,500. Mr. Taylor,
who had charge of the matter, died
at Savannah with yellow fever. I
will upou tbe receipt of $10 addition
al bave tbe property conveyed to
you by the County Clerk. The
amount is to par tbe clerk fo- hi
services.
C. L. Evans.
A great many greenies, who know
they have no right to the pronarty
mentioned, but are willing to take
Advantage of what they consider
tbe mistake of ihe careless Mr. Ev
ans, send $10, which is tie last of it.
It is curious that people will
themselves to betaken in by
alljw
devi-
ces eo transparent.
TIIK TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT.
The temperance movement is still
progressing, though it has not made
tbe headway that its projectors hop
ed. It is very hard to keep the at
tention of Xew Yorkers to anything
bat their business for any leugth ot
lime, and then think what au euor
raous tbin the rum bisiaass is to
fight. Yet the league are working
away as earnestly as though ibey
were iaypossession of the enemy's
outworks. Tbey bave collected
some interesting fiures to show
what tippling nouses cost toe city.
Tbey charge four fifths of tbe ex pea
ses for police, charities, for criminal,
paupers, or 81,000,000, to them; to
this must be added $1,000,000 for sal
aries to extra employes ia judical aud
other departments; donations to char
itable institutions, $3000,000, or a to
tal of $2.4000,000. To offset this
there i9 $300,000 collected foin li
cense fees. These figures are siiroif-
pant. Mrs. Iiittle J'avereaus Buke
made a temperance speech, in ibp
course of which she said that be
tween 1 8J0 and 187,5 forty-two wo
men wpre killed in tblscliy by drun
ken njeo npst of then kif'ked to
dea'.l)
POLITICAL
Tbe contest, this fall, iu the city,
will be between Tammany 00 the
one band, and tbe combined Repub
licans And Aoti-Tammaoy Democrats
on the other. Contrary 10 the usu
al practice, the Democratic business
men bave taken bold of ibe nutter,
and if they make a fiht ia dead
earnest, tbey m.ay qcpomptisb. some
thing. Tbe" respectable element of
tbe American Democracy, aided by
the Gernian vote, which is a,lwa.ya
uncomfortable in any orgauinion
which includes the Irish, and the en
tire Republican party, ought to car
ry this city, and relieve it from tbt
dead weight of John Kelly Tamma
ny ism. Rut I am not very sanguine,
the leaders of Tammany know tLeir
power. They bave tbe revenues ol
a vast city at their control, aod tbey
know that a great many meq have
tbeir price. When the forces are all
ready for action, aud it is known wbo
tbe workers are, Kelly will swoop
down witb bis money and bis places,
And then whether it is a success or
not, will depend entirely' on bow
many of tbem be cao buy. To suc
ceed, tbe respectable Democrats, and
tbe Independent Germans must draw
out of the Democratic ranks quite
thirty tljoosand votes, and with,
Tammany charging through their
lines, it is very doubtful. And tbea
tbe Rochester CJQvention so divided
tbe Republican party that it is doubt
ful whether action can be taken
which will insure a full Republican
vote. I bave no faith whatever ia
tbe movement, bnt I do most ardent
ly bopa J may be disappointed.
THE COST or STRIKES
Tbe cost of the service of tbe State
Militia during tbe strikes of last sum
mer time, say ooe week foot up
nearly $255,000. D is rather an ex
pensive way of obtaining increase of
pay. Probably Ibe cost of the strikes!
in tbe State, counting destruction
and detention, loss of time and every
thing else, will fool up $S00, ((00,000.
Aod it all amoaotea to nothing ex
cept to give a lot of demagogues like
Schwab and Swintoa notoriety. Tbey
are tryiog tbe same thing over again
aod may possibly succeed.
THE GRAIN TRADE
Tte papers are exercised over the
fact that Xew York bas not had a
very large increa.-e of rectipts of
grain, while Philadelphia, Boston
and Baltimore bave. It is easy to
understand wby this Is so. Xew
York has laid down opon ber natu
ral advantages, and bas failed to con
ciliate tbe outside world. Tbe rail
roads running into Xew York are
manged in thei Merest of oue family.
Those running into other cities are
managed in the interest of cities.
The point of the Xew York magnate
is to see how much be can skin out
or a bushel of grain tbe other cities
strive to see at how little tbey cun
do the business and live. We

Tne Eastera War.
The pitiful stories of the conui.ion
of the Christian population south of
the Balkans are beginning 10 create
uneasiness and indignation in Europe.
The despatch of Ahmed Yefix to
Adriaopole, at the instauce of Minis
ter Layard, bas oot the effect of
putting a stop to .he executions.
Tbe Italian Consuls are Beading fear
ful accounts of tbe doings of Ottoman
officials. They say that executions
and transportations are depopulating
Roumelia. Tbe Italian Consul at
Tripoli states that two thousand Bul
garians bave landed at Tripoli from a
Turkish transport, and bave been
sent to the borders of the detert in
the interio. A correspondent of the
Timet, engaged on one of tho relief
agencies at work among the Bulga
rians, sends a hideous account of the
stale of ibe Province. He ia at pres
ent statiuued at Carlova, ou tbe
southern slope of the Balkans, twenty
milts west of Kanzantik. In tbia
place, the population of which be es
timates must bave been nearly twenty
tiousaud, there is not a ern mai
1. -ft alive. Fornix weeks tbe place
ba been at the mercy cf irregulars
of tbe Turkish army. There now
r.-uiaij among tbe rains of what was:
ouce a beautiful and thriving town
but fire or six thousand women aod
childrei. These poor creatures hide
themselves as beat tbey may, dread
ing the outrages cf which nightly
some of them are victims. They
caa hardly bo said to bave shelter,
clothing, or food, aud hive satisfied
life by luriivi-ly gathering roots aa4
vegetables left in tkoir ruined gar
dens. Jabber ojr.
We have steadfastly maintained
that by bis record Amo-i C. Xoyes
was exclusively sboii to be a fiieud
and cbampi'iu cf capitalists aud mo
oopjlists. But with rab ardor bis
friends, in seeking to removn this
stigma, having unconsciously (we
trus') fastened till deeper the charge.
A late iustance of beadstroo deni
al on tbe part of bis Democratic apol
ogists is their explanation of his sup
port ot tbe infamous Milfurd ana iu
tauioras railroad scheme. Ou
readers w ill recollect that ia 1870 a
bill was "Hoaked" through the Legis
lature that Kim ply robbed the Suite
Trtasury of ten thousand dollars per
year uaid by the Erie railroad of
New York, far right uf way through
Pike pmuty, aod banded over tor
niocty-ninp years to the Milford and
Matauiuras railruad this nica little
nest egg. By special message Gov
oroor Ueary denounced the job and
recjtieted its appeal. Amos C.
Xoyes workaJ and voteJ u defiat
the repeal. And for what reason?
His friends publicly assert, to save
a friend of hi, a wealthy ootractor
wbo built tbe road, from pecuniary
1 ;ss. la other words, tbe interests
of the taxpayers must be subordina
ted simply because a friend, of Mr'.
Xoyes was the ontrnotor.
As ihe pliant tool ot corporations
XJr. Xoyes, fur services rendered, bas
been again aot again rewarded wjjj
Ut contracts. He is fully posted re
specting the hidden arcana of spec
ial legislation, nod iu no more prom
inent cbauael did be ever illustrate
this knowledge tbaa by earnestly la
boring to defraud tbe taxpayers of

fer to.

Hublerraaaaa Fire.
Scbaxtox, October 22. An alarm
ing fire is raging at tbe depth of near
ly four hundred feet below the sur
face of the earth around the chambers
ot tbe Jermjn Colliery, situated in
tbe Thirteeuth ward, of thu fcity. It
originated oa Vedacsday last, when
a miner, with a lighted lamp, entered
a portion of the workings that bad
been filled with gas. The fire com
municated with several strong jets of
gas, or "blowero" that came rushing
through the deep, subterranean 64
sures, and in a sbort t'tye huge mass
es of coal wero in tUmes. Several
ofthofity Gre companies bare been
working constantly during the past
two days ia half hour relays, but the
obstructions are such as to render the
fighting of the fire a elow and hazard
ous work. Tbe Leal is intense ; tbe
smoke is unbearable, and a poisonous,
sulphurous gas is generated almost
as rapidly as it can be removed bv
the immense fan which is onniantly
at work, tbe stoppage of which would
be fallowed by fatal results. The Ore
continues to gain headway and the
work of extinguiohing it is constantly
growing ni-jre dangerous, arisinar
from tbo fall of huge oiasses of roof,
toe release ol new volumes of gas
and the accumulation of sulphur. It
is feared ihat the process of fljodiog
will bave to ba resorted to in order
to bave tbe colliery, aud if so at least
four mouths will oc required to get
11 in proper wonting order again.
Tbe colliery bus ben but receutly
constructed aod Is a rtrr valuable
one.
