MISCELLANEOUS.
Dyspepsia, anions Farmer.
It is a notorious fact, that indigestion pre
vails more exteDsively amoDg the farming
population of the West ;han a
among any other i
class. Why is this? They certainly take
any reasonable amount of exercise, and that
too in the open air, and in the broad sunlight.
Their houses are well ventilated, and by their
isolated situation free from the many unheal
thy influences of a pent up city.
We think if our farmers will pause for a
momeDt and look this matter gravely in the
face, they will discern the cause of the preva
lence of this. mother of most maladies among
them to be: "t -
- 1. The constant use of salt" meat, particu
larly salt pork. It is well known that this
abominable swine's flesh, fried in its own fil
thy grease, constitutes the "staff of life" in
nearly every farmhouse in the Mississippi
valley. Hog and hominy are household gods
aDd according to the iloorier's creed, indis
pensrble to man's existence.
2 The use of coffee. The faithful western
housewife serves it up "strong and good"
morning, LO n and night. Reader just think
of it, the vilest of flesh washed into the
stomach three times a oay by a decoction of
narcotic poisou!
3 Kapii eating. We should remember
that swallowing oue's food is not tho first pro
cess necessary to healthy digestion. If we
had gizzards we might then swallow our food
whole as ducks do, but instead of gizzards we
have teeth (sonie of us), and are commanded
to use them in grinding food for the stomach,
but if we compel the stomach to do both its
own work and that of the teeth, it will soon
give sigus of debility and d.sease, in the
shape of acidity, headaches, sense of weight
over the whole man, irritable temper, despon
dency, &c.
Our farmers seldom spend more than ten or
fifteen minutes at a meal, and then go imme
diately to the field and engage in the most
laborious work. At least one hour should be
spent after each meal in repose of both body
and niiud. This will allow the stomach to
collect to itself, so to speak, a due quantity of
blood, out of which to elaborate the gastric
juice. Violent exercise calls the blood to
other parts of the body, and thus robs the
stomach.
INTERESTING TO HOUSEKEEPERS.
Of the West Iudia sugar and molasses the
Santa Cruz and Porto llico are considered
the best. The Havana is seldom clean.
White sugar from Brazil is sometimes very
good.
IlefiLei sugar usually contains most of the
saccharine substance; there U probable more
economy in using loaf, crushed and granula
ted sugars, than we should first suppose.
Rutter that is made in September and Oc
tober id the best for winter usj. Lard should
be hard and white; and that which is taken
from a hog not over a year old is best.
Rich cheese feels softer uuder the pressure
of the finger. That which i.s very strong is
neither very good nor healthy. To keep one
that is cut, tie it up in a bag that will nut ad
mit flies, and hang it in a cool dry place. If
mould appers on it, wipe it off with a dry
cloth.
Flour and meal of all kinds should be kept
iu a cool dry place.
The best rice is large and has a clear fresh
look. Old rice sometimes has little black in
sects inside the kernels
To seltct nutmegs, pick them with a pin.
If they are good, the oil will instantly spread
around the puueture.
Keep coffee by itself, as the odor affects
other articles. Keep tea in a close chest or
cannister.
Oraoges and lemons keep best wrapped
close m sott paper ana laid in a drawer of
linen.
The cracked cocoa is best; but that which
is put up in pound papers is often very good.
Soft soap bhould be kept ia a dry place in
the cellar, and not be used until three months
old.
To thaw frozen potatoes, put them in hot
water.
To thaw frozen apples, put them in cold
water. Neither will keep alter beiDg frozen.

A JJiograpliy.
Prentice, of the Louisville Journal, has
lately turned his attention to writing the bi
ogaaphics of some of his old political associ
ates. The following graphic extract is from
that of Horace Greeley.
Horace Greeley was born in Oregon, near
the conflux of the Astoria. During his in
fancy he subsisted entirely upon roots and
herbs, and was remarkable for wearing a cop
per stock about his neck. lie sailed to this
country in the Galway steamer. He got em
ployment as a gardener, but in attempting to
root out a large Weed, tore his linen. His
employer, one Seward, forgetting to pay him
bis wages, he left the weed and invented
"Greeley Corn Salve.' He discovered the
SUevegammon fund; was elected a member of
Coogress, and immediately after requested
his friends not to call him honorahle. Reti
ring on his mileage, was presented with the
title 'Galvanized Squash' by Japanese G.
Bennett, Professor of Heraldry. He has
siuce gone into the fencerail business upon a
limited capital.
A bevy of children were tellinar their father
wht they got at school. The eldest reading,
spelling, and defiuition.
"And what do you get my little one? said
the father to a rosy cheeked little fellow, who
was at the time slily driving a tenpenny nail
into the door panel.
"Me! Oh, I gets readin, pel!in and
spanking.
The most intensa mode of expressing
contempt in Milwaukee, ia to exclaim, 'Go,

Letterto Andrew G. Curtin.
Mr. Ccrtix: As you are nowapiominrnt
candidate b-fr the pev-r-le of this Common
wealth for the highest office the people of a
sovereign State alone can confer, aud as you
doubtless desire rvery man in the State to
vote tor you for Governor. I take this season
able occasion to give jou, as well as the peo
ple, my reasons why I cannot. and will not
vote for you. When you were Secretary of
this Commonwealth, a circumstance occurred
in Bellefonte. the place where you reside,
showing satisfactorily to my mind that you
possess too malicious a spirit to fill, with any
creditable degree of dignity., the honorable
position of Governor, over a free; civil-zed
aud enlightened" people;"" The circumstance
was one of too serious a nature to be lost;
and as I told you then, that I would on some
future occasion remirjd you of it, I shall now
proceed to do-so without the fear of your re
volver in my mind.
I wil here first state that I am only a poor
man. and by profession am a huckster. At
the time above referred to, I came to Belle
fonte on busineness. I had an excellent dog
with me to guard my wagon, A number of
boys began teasing the dog by running at him;
and some went so tar as to throw stones at
him. Soon as the dog would defend himself
against theso unjust attacks, tne ungodly boys
ran into the houses, but no soouer had the
dog again returned to his wagon, than the
boys would also return and repeat the insult
Among these boys was the sou of A. G. Cur
tin, who being a little tardy in reaching the
houso, was caught by the dog at the leg of
his pantaloons. The dog was at once recal
led aud tied in the stable belonging to the
lint( ! cn j In nrivint tlif Kfirn frnm tostin
" t - o
him. Soon after that you came to me aud
asked me whether it was my deg that had
caught your boy. I told you that you should
keep a "little cool, and
matter; but you would not
otl greatly excited, and returned with a re
volver in your Laod and a crowd following
you You walked up to me aud drew your
revolver aud said: tlYoud-n son rf a h h,
if you say one tcord, Til shout your G d
d f 1 hitch Son-of a b lis brains out!"
That. Mr. Curtin, was my introduction to
our Secretary of btate. It was a loua ana a
strong introduction to any official gentle

These, then. Mr. Curtin are some of the !
reasons why I really and honestly thiuk you !
are ucGt to be at the Lead of a free. Dutch j
and sovereign people like that cf I'ennsylva- i
uia. You seem to have a very contemptible j
opinion of Dutchmen; but allow me. Sir, to i

They will shoot you, not with revolvers, but

Republicanism
and Xegro
fjquaiity.
In Massachusetts the Republicans have
enfranchised negroes and disfranchised all
foreign born citizens that is, they extend to
the negro the right to vote after a residence
of six months in the State, whereas they cotn-
pell a foreign white man to remain there two
years after he has been naturalized before they
allow him to vote.
In New York the Republicans have given
Negroes the right of suffrage under a proper
ty qualification. If a negro is worth JOU or
over, he is equal to a white Republican; if Le
i3 worth ouly $'2 19.09 he isn't.
Iu Ohio a mulatto is allowed to vote, and
is accouuted "a white citizen," under a deci
sion of the Republican Supreme Court of that
State. . ,
The Democrats in the Ohio Legislature
proposed an amendment- to their Constitution,
last winter, which would effectually prohibit
negro suffrage, but the Republicans defeated
the measure.
In Cleveland the Republican Roard of Ed
ucation compel white children to sit with ne
groes in the public schools one of the mem
bers of the Board declared that "he would
rather his child should sit beside a negro than
beside a frizzle-headed Irish or a bare-headed
Dutch one."
Sixty Ilepublican members of Congress
"cordially endorsed," the following sentiment
in Helper's book: "Not to be au abolitionist
i to be a wilful aud diabolical instrument of
the devil." . ,n
The Freeport Journal (Rep.) says: "He
believe that the negro is human that he has
a soul aud so far as his rights are concerned
he should enjoy all the social and political
ri-hts of the white man "
CWhen John Browc was convicted of mur
der and hung for his crimes, the Republi
can's held sympathy meetings in all their
strongholds, and tolled bells, and passed res
olutions that. John Brown was a christian
martyr, and the gallows upon woicn ne was
hung more glorious than the crosa of Christ.
Quaker in business in Boston, disli
king "the 'Eq to his name, advised a south
ern correspondent to direct his letters to
Amos Smith, -without any tail, and received a
reply. p(rscnbcd, 'Amos Smith, without
any tail, lf-itou.
Col. W. is a fine leoking man, isn 1 1

Yes," replied another, "I was taken for

"You! why you re as ugly as fcin.

As a weary traveler was wending his
way through the mud io a far west region of
the country, he discovered a young maiden
seated in the tront door of a small log house.
He rode up in front of the cabin, and asked
the girl for a drink of water. He drank it,
and she being the first woman be had seen
for several days, offered her a dime for a kiss.
The youug maiden accepted tbe offer, and
received both the kiss and the dime. The
traveler was about to resume his journey, but
the girl, never before having seen a dime,
asked: "What am I to do wish the dime?"
"You may use it any way you with," he re
plied. "It is yours." "If that's the case,"
said she, "I'll give you back the dime and

triumph or defeat of the R'

publican party in
iLe November contest. Deeply impressed
with this truth, the Democratic State Execu
tive Committee desires britfiy to address you.
It nteds no lengthy argument at this time to
call you to a seDse of duty. In the crisis
now impending, every tru patriot can aee at
, a tingle glance the pathway Le should tread
t with unfauermg footeps.
! Ever since the sercrarion of the National
Democracy at Baltimore, the State Commit
tee Las earnestly labored to promote the uioo
of the Democratic r arfv iu Pennsylvania, it
! has sought no other object, it Las ttrutrgled
i to produce no other result. hen thecbasm

bcu able to contend tucctssfully with the
foes of the Cootitution and the cotemnt rs cf
the equali'3r of the States, the great heart of
the American people was filled with dread,
and the Democratic masses were ovcrwhclmei
with consternation. The Republican party
viewed our internecine warfare with ill-di-guis:;d
delight Its leaders, confident of suc
cess, boldly enuncia'cd their dangerous and
treasonable stnlimeiitv Tb.2 advocates cf

t:ge of
success which had crooned the labois of the
I Heading Cotveiition was irrevocably broken.
; and they promptly ma'e the Keystone State
, and with our people the victory or defeat must
be accomplished.
In thi emergency, the Stvc Committee,
actuated by feelings of patriotism, and premp
ted otily by a wish to secure the triumph of
the "goo-i eld cause." endeavored to agree
upon a course of action that would etiahle tL?
Democratic masses to unite upn one EJecto-
i ral Ticket, and thus permit thm to male a
common effort against the candiiatcs of the
! Republican party. After much dcli?eration.

: a plan of union was agreed upon, which, if
; fa-.'-hSuily executed, will unquestionable pro-
duce this patriotic result, in such
a crisis it
i .
requires no words to prcva tue wisdom gi any
f-Pirt that will firmly consolidate the orposi
tion to our ccBincn politi-.-al cn-rniy. It is
simply a question between Republicanism and
i Democracy; and, as such, it is ccmit'td
j with conSdeLco to the ca'ra g"oJ sense' .of the
people of Pencylvauia.
j It cant.ot be denied that the union of the
Democratic party will result iu a Ltiiliant tri
1 umph iu October. On that initial batt'e all
i oar energies muss be ecnccntra'ed. Wc have
j a k-aJcr worthy of our caue With an en
; thusiasm never before equalled in any politi
i cal assemblage, Henry D. Foster, o! West
i moreland, was selected as our standard bearer
; in that important contest. He did ort peek
; the nouiinatiou. lie repeatedly dfcltntd be
1 ing a candidate for the offic?. When ftrag-
gling artisans met -.t Reading to advance
; the interests of their peculiar fvorite-f. he r3
i luaiued iu the quiei rctiiemrtit of Lis own
i home, with no thought of personal advanec-
men:, aua anxious on.y i.r it e success ci
Democratic principles. The presentation of
his name to the Convection wa met by a
prompt withdrawal, at his urgent solicitation.
But when the voice of the people unanimous
ly preclaimed him tbe leader of the party iu
his native Commonwealth, Le'did t.ct refuse
to obey the call to duty, yet seeking no pre
ferment by any word or act of his own. The
record of his life is the record of a PcnDejlvn
nia patriot. In every position Le Las ice-u-picd,
he has obeyed the instiucts cf Lis na
ture in laboring for the good of those who
gave him place and power. The parity of
his private character: the ability which marks
every act of Lis public life; the devotion ho
has shown to the industrial interests of Penn
sylvania in the halls cf cur National Corgrers
aud Mate Legislature: the seal he hss ever
I brought to bear upon all que stions involving
j the true policy of our State Government; and
the conservatism which has always character
ized his views upon National issues, nike
eminently worthy of the support and confi
dence of all who have at heart the abiding
welfare of Pennsylvania frceimcn. In asking
you to battle for such champion, the State
Committee feels that it is only cilitLg upon
you to guard and protect your vital interest.
You will Dot be thus appealed to in vain.
The people are with the Democratic party,
and will follow its fiag, because it is the party
of the Uuion and the Constitution. It has
made this country great and powerfail. It
has never ceased to struggle f-r the elevation
of tbe masses, and for the csiaUi-hmect cf
the true policy of government. Its power it
exhibited in the rapid growth of our extended
boundaries, iu the general prosperity ad
happiness cf cur people, and in the free and
liberal character that has been given to our
political institutions. Ia invekicg thorough
and complete organization throughout the
State in behalf cf this party, a simple duly is
required cf the Democratic masse. Th.
State Committee is now actively engaged in
endeavoring to secure this sure and certa u
rreursor of victory. We must be united it
