MURDER.-We learn that a man named
Myric was murdered in his own house, near
Belton's DEPOT, in Hieds county, by his son,
on the night of the 25th inst. We know
nothing of the character of the parties, nor
of the particulars of the murder, further than
that both sons and father were intoxicated and
had been quarrelling some time when a
younger son became Cisgusted and left the
house. In short time afterwards he was
called back by the negroes, and found his ia
ther mortally stabbed, and the elder son stand
ing near holding the knife with which the
deed had been committed.

Democrats ana the Irisb.

Democracy always loves the Irish Just be-
fore an election. In fact, Democracy then,
loves all mankind. 1t takes the German by
sweet words into the ears of mechanics, adores
the farmer, and raphsodizes the bone and
sinew of the land" wherever found. But
when there is no further immediate use re uu-
red for votes, Democracy no longer knows
those who before were gods in its sight AT
the first period they always show singular
fondness for the Irish, peculiar love for the
Emerald Isle, even an extraordinary appetite
for potatoes-but when the votes have been
given, their former predictions seem to turn
to contempt. For instance, red-mouthed
Democratic sheet. short distance down the
river, loved the Irish prodigiously before the
Presidential election, but it has exhibited late
ly of what its hypocritical love was composed.
Gen. Shields was elected to the Senate; the
principal offence in the eyes of this paper
seemed to be that Shields was an Irishman
1t might have forgiven him if he had been
horse thief or if he had been chased from
community for committing a rape, as was the
Editor himself-but to be an Irishman, ''ly-
ing I:ishman,n as the Editor called him, was
an objectionable sin. And yet this Irshman
had been one of the most gallant men in the
American ranks, in the battles Of Mexico, and
had come home with honorable scars to re-
ceive the gratitude of his adopted county,
Even such Irishmen cannot escape the black
guardism of this knave now, while before the
election the same man would have taken by
the hand the vilest bearing the name of Irish
man.
But as we have given an instance from the
the most contemplate source, let US show how
in the higher quarters, these Democrats show
their scorn of the Irish and Ireland A mo-
ton was lately made in the U. S. Senate, that
Father Matthew be allowed the privilege ot
a seat in the bar of the Senate, during his
soiourn at Washington. The good and pi.
Gus old man is admired by all classes-ever
those who sell ardent spirits paying thei
homage 20 genius and goodness as found il
him. But the most bitter opposition wa,
made by certain Democrats. They could no
even pay compliment demanded by decen

might have received compliment 1t wa:

WHITE LEAD AND PAINT FAcToRY.-By
reference to advertisement, it will be seen
that Messrs. Conkling, Wood & Co., are ex-
tensively engaged at Cincinnati in the man
utacture of White Lead and Paints. Their
White Lead Factory iswell known, and their
article is equal to any manufactured in the
country. We especially invite the attention
Of Jarmtrs to the fact, that this establishment
is always ready to pay So per bushel cash
for Castor Beans. This species of Beans is
easily cultivated, and the climate and soil Of
Indiana is well adapted to the object. They
do not require much care, and always meet
with good market at Cincinnati, and the
very best prices at the factory above referred
to. Try the experiment of raising Castor
Beans.

The Proper Mode Of Feeding Cattle.

An English writer observes that two great
points in feeding cattle, is regularity and par
ticular care of the weaker individuals. On this
last account there ought to be plenty of rack
room, that too many may not feed together; in
which very common case, the weaker are not on
~ trampled down blythe stronger, but they are
worried and become cowed and spiritless; than
which there cannot be a more unfavorable state
for thrift, besides; they are ever compelled to
shift with the worst Of the fodder; This domi-
neering spirit is SO remarkably prevalent among
horned cattle, that the writer has hundred times
observed the master beasts running from crib to
crib, and absolutely neglecting their own prov
ender for the sake of driving the inferior from
theirs. This is much oftener than is suspected,
the chief reason of that difference in a lot Of
beasts after winters keep. 1t is likewise, he
says, very common and very shameful sight,
in dairy ofcows, to see several of them gored
and wounded in a dozen places, merely from the
inattention Of the owner, and the neglect of cup
ping the horns of those that butt. The weaker
animals should be kept apart and in Grip feed
ing in the yard, it is good method to tie up the
master beasts at their meals DR.. Dean says
there should be more yards than one to the barn,
where divers sorts Of cattle are kept. The sheep
should have yard by themselves At least; and
the young stock another, that they may be Who'll
" confined TO such fodder as the farmer can af.
