The Law About Thistles.
Wo have a law upon our statute
booka that seems to be overlooked.
Indeed we suppose many farmers are
ignorant of its existence. Yet it is
of no little importance, and we give
it below as particulaaly appropriate
at this season. The State Agriculs
tural Society is interesting itself on
this subject, and parties allowing
themselves to become amenable to
the penalties decreed in the law, may
expect to be prosecuted under its
provisions. We remark further that
a notion prevails among many (an t
it has some support from experience)
that the most effectual time to de
stroy thistles, or indeed, any weed,
is early in August 41 when tho sign
ia in tho heart." Plants cut at this
time, it is said, will surely die, ef
fectually. The following ia tho law
referred to:
It shall be the duty of every person or
persons, and of every corporation holding
finds in this Commonwealth, either by
lease or otherwise, on which any Canada
thistle, may be growing, to cut the same
so as to prevent such weeds or thistles
from going to seed, and the seed of the
same from ripening : and any person or
persons, or corporation as aforesaid, who
shall or may have land as aforesaid in
tho said tounties, and who shall neglect
or refase to comply with the provisions
of this aot, shall forfeit and pay a fine of
fifteen dollars, one.half to tho County
Treasurer, and the other half to the use
of the person suing for the same, who
shall be a competent witness to prove
the facts, to be recovered as other debts
oftheliko amount, before any Justice
of the l'eaco or iu any Court of record
in said county.
If amy person or persons, or corpora*
tion, holding land as aforesaid, on which
Canada thistles, or the weeds commonly
known as such, shall be growing and
.likely to ripen seed thereon, shall neg
lect or refuse to cut and destroy the
same, so as to prevent the seed thereof
from ripening, it shall and may be law
ful for any person or persons, who may
consider themselves aggrieved, or about
to be injured by such neglect or refusal,
to give fire days notice in writing to
such person or persons or corporation, to
cat and destroy such weed* of thistles;
and on their "refusal to cut and destroy
the same at the end of five days, it shall
and may fcs lawful for any person or
persons, so aggrieved, or believing them
selves about to be injured thereby, to
enter upon, or hire other persons to en
ter upon such promisee, and cut down
and destroy such Canada thistles; and
the person or persons so employed shall
be entitled to recover from such la»d,
compensation at the rate of two dolla s
per day, to be sued for and recovered as
debts of like amount, before any justice
or court in said counties. Approved

Hints to Farmers.
Tho Trenton (N. J.) Sentinel
having been requested by somo rural
subscribers to add an "Agricultural
Departmnet to its columns, falls ill
with the idea, and as a commence
ment, furnishes the following " ad
vice to farmers
1. In breaking up tho ground in
the spring always use a plow. A
hammer will not answer. See that
your horses are hitched at the right
end of the plow, or it will '• go
back" on you.
2. In sowing oats be careful that
vour boys do not use the "wild" va>«
riety. The wild will " como to a
head" the soonest, but it is not
prpfitable. We never knew a crop
Of this kind to pay expenses.
3. Flat land will never answer for
corn. It ghould always be planted
in hills. The farmer who neglects
this caution will have a hard row to
hoe. Four grains (avoirdupois
weight) to the hill is the rule for
planting. Corn in the ear is better
than corn on toe. AVe have tried
both.
4. Plant your potatoes with tho
eyes downward. The caution is par
ticularly necessary when " women's
rights" are employed to hoe the
earth over them.
5. To prevent the pigs from get
ting at the planted corn, ring their
noses. To prevent the chickens
-from doing the samo wring their
necks.
6. For getting wheat properly in
the grouud a sewing machine is ins
dispensable.
7. Rye should be putin early ;
say the first thing on gettting up
in the morning. But few farmers
require instructions therein.
CHILDREN'S FfißT.—Lifelong dis<.
comfort diseaso and sudden death often
coma to children through the inattens
tion or carelessness of tho parents. A
child should never be allowed to go to
sleep with cold feet; the thing to be
last attended to, see that the feet are dry
and warm ; neglect of this has often re
suited in a dangerous attack of croup,
diptheria or a fatal sore throat.
Always on coming from school, on en
tering the house from a visit or errand,
in rainy, muddy, or thawing weather,
the child's Bhoes should be removed 1 , and
tho mother should herself asoertain if
the stockings are the least damp, and if
so they should bo taken off, the feet held
before the fire and rubbed with the hand
till perectly dry, and another pair of
... shoes be put on, aud the other shoes and
stockings should be placed where they
? can bo dried, so as to be ready for fu
ture use at a moment's notice.
A Black Man's I'artjr iti lUc
South.
It is tbe destiny of the Republican par
ty to abolish ia our laws all distinctions
on account of color. It is tho first great
political party in this country that has
maintained the truth that manhood is ab
solute, and that the rights of a man are
not to be measured by race or complex
ion. As a party cannot be created by
tbe mere resolutions of a Convention, but
must grow out as tho convictions of the
people, it has formed its creed slowly, ar
ticle by article. It abolished Slavery ;
that was not enough. It made I.uion
soldiers of the slaves it had liberated ;
that was not enough. It gave the ballot
to tbe negroes of the South ; that was
not enough. It clothed them with full
citizenship, the right to sit on juries, to
hold office; and yet this is not enough. It
remains for the Republican party to place
the colored men of the North upon the
same level,in that in every election,in ev
ery Court in tho United States, there
shall be no question of black or white,
no rule for the one race that is not also
the rule for the other. Either by the
action of States or of Congress it will
certainly effect this ; in a year or ttfo at
the most all discrimination on account of
color will be banished from our laws.
ThofC men in the South who are work
ing to establish a black man's party are
the eocuiiesof this priuciple of equality,
and if they carry out their plans they
will strike Republicanism a Dlow far heav
ier than the lJemocracy can deal. They
will go far to undo the graud reform of
which the war was the instrument. In
Virginia it is feared that the State Re
publican Convention, August 1, will bs
the occasion of a division in the liepub
iiean ranks, and the creation of rival par*
ties, black and white. In Missouri, also,
there are adventurers who urge the coK
ored men to demand representation on the
Presidential ticket, and in ease it is re
fused, to form a separate organization.—
We do not believe those efforts will be
sustained by the c.olored men, for they
surely know the fatal results of Buch an
unprincipled policy.
It is unprincipled because in denies
every moral principle of the great move*
ment which gave the colored race their
rights. Tho Republican party abolished
tho distinction of color in politics and
law ; these agitators would restore it.—
Republicanism broke down the barriers
that separated tho races ; these men
would rebuild them. Republicanism
seeks to reconcile on the broad plains of
the continent the discordant peoples of
Africa and Europe ; here it would solve
tho problem of races, and prove how
much greater and deeper are the unities
of humanity than its divisions, and that
under • equal laws all races may oxist in
one peaceful confederation. The far
reaching results of this experiment, the
tremendous effect of its success, we need
not intimate, though few men may ha- e
reflected that American Republicanism is
the leading reform of the world, and that
God has given it a continent to work out
the enigma ot human happiness. With
what disgust, then, must all true reform
ers look upon this ignorant or malignant
attempt to ruin aii experiment so noble.
The lucu who would establish a Hlack
party in the South would create for us a
new Africa. They would place a gulf
between race and race. Nothing can bo
more anti-American than a party which
denies tho unity of American citizen
ship ; such a party could not long exist.
Who has forgotten when, in 1864, a Ger>
man party was foolishly projected, the
indignation which that suggestion caus
ed 1 America desired to reconcile all na
tionalities in her own, and would inevit
ably havo crushed any attempt to set up
France or Germany or Italy as an.alien
and independent power upon American
ground. Equally certain will be the
overthrow of an effort to gather tho mil
lions of colored men in thd United States
into a distinct political organization.
We desire the time to come speedily
when it shnll no longer be matter of sur
prise to see colered men at the polis, on
juries, or in office; but wo know that
this will only come by the absorption of
the race in the American nationality. It
is said that this is impossible; that the
d fferences of tho races are not to be rec
onciled. This we do not believe ; but
the shortest way to prove it would be to
organize a Black men's party. That
would be conclusive. If after four years'
fighting, the greatest results of which
are the lrcedom and the citizenship of
the colered men, their first act should be
to affirm that color is the true basis of
political distinction, there would be no
more to say. Republicanism would bo
answered and silenced, and those who
had put it to shame might boast if they
could that ; while we had sought to
make the colored citizen an American,
they had left him, as we found him, an
African.— N. Y. Tribune.
THE SECRET OF SPCRQEUN'S EFFICIENT.—
Spurgeon'9 efficiency is said to lie in his ad
ministrative ability. He not only works
himself, bnt inspires others to work with all
their might. It is said that a commercial
firm in London were so impressed with hie
administrative ability that they offered him
$15,000 a year to embark his influence in
their enterprise. He manages a church of
3,800 members, n theological seminary of
100 students, publishes a monthly magazine
and a weekly sermon, has just issued a hymn
book, and is about tj establish an orphan
asylum. lie has infused this spirit of work
into his church. Six hundred young men
go out every Sunday to preach wherever they
can get a hearing. Prayer meetings are
held iu liftyor more places every evening.
A Bible-class of 300 young men is condue'»
cd by one of the elders. Mrs. Bartlett, a
member of this church, has a class of 900,
the average attendance being seven hund
red, which at its inception, numbered only
three- Success, in religious as well as sec
ular enterprises, is generally proportionate
to theamountof well-directed effort. If we
would reap, we must sow. The most shin
ing abilities cannot dispense with active la
bors.
—Since the published announcement of
the intention of the Treasury Department to
issue « fractional currency note of the de
nomination of fifteen cents, a large number
of letters have been receivhd requesting
samples, and farther information in regard
to the proposed new issue. Some parties
have inclosed amounts of money with their
letter for sample notes; but tbese will net
be ready for some weeks; as the water-mark
fur the paper is not completed.

AN INVALUABLE MEDICINE
—FOR—
The Purifying of the Blood.
DR. J. W. POLAND'S
HUMOR DOCTOR,
A Positive Remedy tor all Kindt oi llamort,
PAKTICCLABLT
ERYSIPELAS, NETTLE RABH. 9ALT RHEUM,
SCROFULA, CARBUNCLES, BOILS AND PILES
It is vary gratifying to say of this. or of any other
medicine,' It in the very best remedy known." It is
not always so easy to prove it. It Is. however, exceed
irmly gratifying to the Proprietor of this medicine, that
while he declares to the public that this is a most won
derful and effective specific for Humors, as stated ab«>ve,
ho has abundant proof a' hand 10 sustain his statement
For sixteen years the Humor Doctor has been manu
factured and sold, and every year has increased the
value of its reputation, and the amount of its sales.—
In New Hampshire, where It originated, no remedy for
humors Is so highly prixed. An eminent physician
(now an army surgeon) when practising in New Hamp
shire. puicliased between fifty and sixty gallons of it
during some seven or eight years, and used it in his
practice. He has since then ordered it for the Hospi
tal where he was stationed. Other physicians have
ordered it, and have used it in practice with greet suc
cess When the jroprietor lived in New Hampshire, at
Goffstown Center, fl»r the space of thirty or forty miles
around, und in Manchester particularly, the Humor
l)i>ctor was well known and highly valued for the nu
merous and wonderful cures which it effected. Though
manufactured in large quantities the supply WHS fre
quently exhausted, and purchasers bad to wait for more
to be made. In that region sumo very severe cases of
Krysipelas were treated with—and they weie cured.—
Erysipelas sores, or carbuncfes, those ugly, painful til
ceis. were entirely removed wherever this medicine was
faithfully used. So it was with Scrofula and Salt Rheum.
The Hnmor Doctor cured them.
For the sake of showing what is thought of It, a few
testimonials are here inserted:
Milton Gale, Esq., Boston, Man.
I hereby certify that I was sorely afflicted with bolls
for two years, developing themselves on my limbs and
other parts of my btdy. The sufferings which I en
dared from them are indescribable. Suffice it to say
that I faithfully tried several of the most popular hu
mor remedies, but without removing the affliction. At
b-ngth, by the eat nest request of an intimate friend, I
wa» induced to try Dr. J . W. Poland's Hnmor Doctor,
and am very happy to attest that all my boils were re
moved, and my health was restored by using Dr, Po
land's aforesaid medicine.
Boston, Jan. 14, 1860. MILTON GALE.
A. C. IF. Esq., Manchester, JV. H.
DR. J. W. POLAXD—Dear Bir: I very cheerfully give
my testimony in favor of your Humor Doctor as an ex
cellent remedy for humors. My numerous acquaint
ance in Manchester know how severely I was afflicted
with ltoils, and they know how perfectly good my health
is at present. Your Hunier Doctor cured me. Please
refer to me for particulars in my case.
Manchester, N. ll.,June 11, r 6S. A. C. WLLACE-
Mrs. Wheeler, Sttmeham , Mass.
I very confidently and earnestly recommend Dr. J.
W. Poland's Humor Doctor as an excellent lemedyfor
humors, having been wonderfully remedied by it myself.
My own case was a very severe and obstinate one. For
more than two years the ikin upon the Inside of both
my hands,and even down to my wrist, was constantly
cracked and broken up, so that 1 Mas unable to use
my hands -in any kinds of wet work, and was
obliged to wear gloves in sewing to avoid getting blood
upon my work. The humor which ao afflicted me was
probably a combination of Erysipelas and Salt Rheum.
My general health was quite poor. Soon after I began
to Utte the Humor Doctor I could perceive signs of heal
ing. I continued to use the medicine till 1 was finally
cured My hands are now perfectly free from humors,
and to all appearances my whole system is clear of it,
and has been for several months. I used eight bottles
befere I felt safe to give it up entiiely, but they cured
me. IIARIHET WUEKLER.
Stoneman, Mass., Julv 5,1860.
Mr*, rorttr, Dover, N. H,
DOVER, N. 11, July 22, 1855.
DR. POLAND, I received your letter enquiring as to
the effects of your medicine on sea-sickness. lam hap
py to say that I think it is " the medicine" for that
dreadful sickness. 1 tried various prescriptions, but
found none that settled the stomach and cleared the
head like the Humor Doctor. I felt as though I could
hardly wait togetashore, to entreat jou to intrduce it
into ship chandlery stores, that it may find its way to
those who suffer upon the mighty deep from sea-sick
ness. If captains who take their families with them,
or carry passengers, should try it for once, they would
never be willing to voyage without It.
1 have used it for my family since its Introduction to
the public for bilious habits, headache and humors
about my children, and have always found it a sure
I am not fond of having my name appear in public,
and would not consent to it on any other account lint to
relieve the suffering : but if the foregoing will be of any
service to you or the public, you can make use of it.
Yonrs, HARRIET M. PORTE It.
Much mors might be said in relation to this medicine,
as contained in testimonials, but it is needless. Ask
Manchester drnggests about it, especially E W. Blake,
at Barr's. Inquire of Mr. Henry Plumer,of Bedford,
whose wife was cured by it of Salt Rheum. A«k almost
any person iu (Joffstow.n, and they will declare its value
asa remedy, as used iu their own cases or by their
friends.
The Humor Doctor was formerly sold at fifty cents
per bottle; but the cost of every Ingredient composing
it lias gone up so enormously, that the price has been
raised to fifty cents only, and that by compulsion.
The Humor Doctor is prepared at the New Eugiand
Botanic Depot, for the proprietor, J. C. French.
Sold by Medicine Dealers everywhere.
