WHERE ARE THEYl-The Editor OF tie
Hindoo organ complains quite bitterly of
the prevalence of intemperance in our viii
lage; and all this after the great sacrifices
Of time and money made by the "carson"
League" proscriptionists! He is quite anx-
ious to know what has become of the .'vig-
liant temperance men," Sure enough what
has become Of them! From the manner in
which they began the work of persecution
and the immense fund they had raised 10
carry it on, we little dreamed that at this
late day, there would be left any work 10
their line dndone. But we think it is not at
all difficult to tell what has become of the
"rtgilant temperance men," There lis just a.
bout these days, warm political contest
coming oh, and these "tigilant friends oi
temperance" are very anxious to beat the
"wicked Locofoco Nebraskates," and are
around the country bowling about the infa.
nous violation of plighted filth, and all that
twadle, trying to "rope in" those whom they
have beforetime denounced as miserable
"rummieb" and "rot" gut suckers" They
have got bigger business on hand just now
than attending to temperance matters!

Hints 10 Farmers.

Our attention has been called to the fol-
lowing from the Summit Beacon and we
would commend Il to the consideration Of
our farmers. The suggestions are worthy
Of note. The hate rainy weather has no doubt
damaged some wheat, and alIihat has receive
ed injury should certainly be put away by
itself. -Mingling it with good wheat would
depreciate the value of the whole lot:
A HrNr TO FGRMRRs.-It has been sug-
gested 10 us, as hint worthy Of the atten-
ton Of Farmers, that in all cases where a
portion only of their wheat has sprouted
they take pains to separate it from that
which is not sProutsd before it Is thrash
ed; as otherwise tie Whole Of it will
suffer depreciation as sprouted wheat
Our millers are compelled to make a
distinction between a perfect and impet-
feet article, in order to sustain the reputation
Of their Flour. Sprouted wheat may be
used, but as it is liable to run in baking, it
will deteriorate the value Of that with which
it is mixed. Where there is mixture, the
millers will regard it all as damaged The
separation may be readily made before
thrashing.

Assault AND BATTERY.-Mr. EPHRAIM
NORTON Of Edinburg, was arrested last week,
for assault and battery upon the person of
little girl six or seven years Of age. An
examination was had before Justice CoNANT,
Of Rayenna, on Monday, which resulted in
binding defendant over to the Probate Court
The name of the chi ID was ALICE ALEX
ANDER. She is an orphan, and at the time
OF the alleged cruelty was living with the
defendant. II would be iitprbPer for us to
offer IN opinion in regard to the merits of
the case. We will state however, that the
evidence on both sides, clearly proves that
the child was severely if not numerically y
whipped without any just cause. Il Mr..
NoRroH is excusable for the act, we sincere
" hope that the same may be fully shown;
If guilty, he deserves to suffer the penalty oi
the law. Cruelty towards the innocent and
helpless, ought never to 60 unpunished and
men should be taught 70 feel that the law
protects not alone ihe,r rights, but the rights
>of the poor, and the orphan.
