FILLMORE Twice ENDORSED BY GRoRdIA.-The
Central Georgian asks Will SOME of the wise prog
nosticators give us reason why Mr.. Fillmore can
not get the vote of Georgia. She has twice en-
dorsed him. Once when he. was comparatively
unknown, and when there may have been some
ground to mistrust him on the slavery question
At another she endorsed his administration in her
approval of its leading measures, by the largest
majority ever polled in the State. And now that
he is placed before her for her suffrages again,
having done nothing to forfeit the confidence here
tofore placed in him, but everything that can con-
firm him as an eminently conservative and national
man, honest, capable and faithful to the consti.u-
ton, and to the whole country, North and South !;
will Georgia reject him Never In doing so she
would be untrue to herself and forfeit her charac-
ter for consistency, and for those virtues and acts
which she has admired and sustained in him.

SARArosA IN l7s7.-We are indebted TO Messrs.
Fetridge 4 Company for advance sheets OF the best
American novel that has been published for years.
We must, in fact, 20 back to the tins Of Cooper's
"a Leather Stocking Tales TO find its equal. The
scene is laid in the vicinity Of Saratoga, at time
when the remains of the Indian tribes still fingered
about what is now the resort Of the gay and fash
ionable world. We must not forestall the interest,"
Of our readers by giving any detailed account OF
the plot; but cannot avoid saying that the
character of " Crazy Jake "a maniac OF superhu-
man strength, who delights in carrying people OF
by main strength, hanging them up on trees, and
such like amusement-the sagacious Indian Cat
foot, the sulleD, revengeful half-breed Joe, the
stout backwoodsman Sandy Brigham, and the
courty old soldier Colonel Belden, are admirably
drawn and the various adventures through which
they pass are full of the most thrilling interest
The night-chase through the forest In pursuit of
the maniac and his beautiful prisoner--Lucille-is
equal to the best descriptions Of Cooper. II this

How to Judge a Horse.

A spondent Of the Prairie Farmer
contrary to old maxims, undertakes to
judge the character Of horse by outward
appearances, and offers the following sng-
gestions, the result Of his close observa-
ton and close experience:
1.-THE color Delight sOrrel, or chestnut.
his feet, legs, and face white, these are
marks of kindness.
Ifhe IS broad and full between the ewes.
he may be depended on as horse Of
good sense, and capable of being trained
to any thing.
As respects uchhorses, the more kindly
you treat them the better you will be
treated in return. Nor viii a horse of
this description stand a whip, If well fed.
If you want safe horse, avoid one
that is dish-faced. He may be 50 far gen.
tie as not to scare but he will have TOO
much go-ahead in him to be safe with
every body.
If you want fool, but a horse of great
bottom, getaa deep bay, with not a white
hair about him. IF his face Is a little
dished, so much the worse. Let no man
ride such a horse that is not adept in
riding-they are always tricky and un-
safe.
LII you want one that win never give
out, never buy large, overgrown one.
A black horse can never stand heat
nor a white one cold.
If you want gentle horse, get one
with more or less white about the head /:
the more the better. Many suppose that
the particular-eolored horses BELONGING
TO the circuses, shows. ETC., are selected
for the oddity. But the selections thus
made are on account Of their great doe;I-
ity and gentleness.

agricultural Rraoiila.
From The New England Farmer
Application of Barn Manures.


Ny general practice has been to keep
manure as dry as possible until is to be
used, and for this purpose have built
leantos to my stables.
My moving and tillage land (iteen
acres) is E mixed medley of dry, sandy
gravel loan, heavy loan and swamp
muck. When first occupied the farm
eighteen years since, 1t was what was
usually called run out" having been
rented for several years, and the crops
sold or carried of; now I knew of no
land more productive in this picturesque
valley of the Deerfeid river. Thecourse
pursued has been the following, beginning
with the uplands.
In the spring pillow as much greensward
as | can manure thoroughly. Ihave uni
fornlly plowed little deeper than any
OF my neighbors, and take more pains to
plow well, but detest a fat furrow. The
manure is spread on the surface as evenly
as possible, in lis raw state; from twenty
to forty eart-loads to the acre, and thor
oughly narrowed, planted and thoroughly
hoed three times. The corn is cut up
and taken of early in October, and the
ground sowed with rye, and seeded in the
spring to ten quarts timothy and two of
northern clover. I usually NOV three
years, then pillow again as before.
Last spring 1 adopted the method gen
ierally recommended by scientific farmers
of ploaViRg IN the manure on the whole
Of my planting ground, in three separate
patches, composed of four different kinds
Of soil, and all in good heart. The result
was that had smaller growth Of corn
than I have had for several previous
years. shall pillow in no more manure
lat present.
The swamplands after being thorough
I u drained, one part was plowed and plant
/ ed with corn, MANFRED with green horse
manure, and afterwards seeded; another
part was covered with about one hundred
bushels Of loomy sand to the square rod,
manfred and seeded with grass and oats /;
and another part plowed and seeded in
the sod in August. This last method |
consider the best.
( occasionally spread green manure on
moist mowlands, and after buzhiug and
rolling, sow a bushel Of gypsum to the
acre; the same on ny corn lands also as
soon as the manure is spread. The ma
nure that Is made during the summer by
blowing occasionally the droppipgs Of the
barn-yard with what had been carried in
The previous fall, is spread on such part
/ Of the mowland as IS not 10 be disturbed
/ by the plOz, as soon as Is convenient az
ter Laying, the-sooner the better; when
the yard IS 10 be filed again with either
sandy loan or muck, the achicA to be de,
cided By the quality Of theland for which
It is intended. P. Field.

Messrs. EDrToRs ii win be remem-
Bsred by many of the readers Of your pa
per. though the facts were not published
sEthe time, that last September the store
6fgym. 3. Burton, in Windham was bro
ken into, and the sum Of $500 IN money
t4ken. An attempt was made to detect
the burglars, but all efforts failed. Mr..
Burton received the money of the presi-
dent Of the West River Bank, to ex-
change for foreign money. a suit was
brought by the Directors of the Bank,
and the whole affair created much talk
and feeling. This week the thieves were
detected and most Of the money reeov-
cred, only about $50 now missing. The
Circumstances which led 10 the detection
we're singular and as follows: On Tues
day last Dennis Chase and William Bug
bee, both Of Jamaica, but the near the
place where the money was taken, went
10 Windham Centre and one Of them,
Bugbee, believe, went to DR.. Dutton's,
The liquor Agent, to purchase pint of
alcohol, pretending II was wanted for
sickness. Dr.. D. was absent, and while
Mrs. D. went down cellar for the alcohol.

which laid there when hrs. D. LEFT the
room When Bugbee left, she went in
mediately 10 The store Of Mr.. Harris, and
gave notice Of the fact. j warrant vas
made and Bugbee and Chase who was
in company with him, were arrested.
The money have been given 10 Chase,
and vas found eoucealedin 4 plug Of to
haeeo.
They were dismissed after settling cost
&c- and left for home, but they had not
gone far before Chase pretended TO ind
a FIVE dollar bill on West River Bank ;
this and some cher circumstances led 10
their arrest On suspicion that they had Ia
ken ths stolen money last fall. They
we're arrested Wednesday morning and

The Peace.

The war which for nearly three years
has eonyulsed the Eastern hemisphere
and effected the interests of every civil
lied community On the globe, has been
eonciuded by treaty Of peace, signed in
Paris On the 29th OF last month. The
books gan now be posted. Il Is stated
that the loss Of men killed, wounded and
from sickness. has been from sir to eiqht
hnndrsd thousand, and the cost Of the
wartO all parties engaged in it 81, 500,-
O00O00-mOney enough 10 build church
and support minister for every one
thousand inhabitants on the globe who
are, as YET, unsupplied. Great as the
destruction Of human life has been. it has
cost full $1,000 10 kill each man. At such
"a saerifee is life taken in war. The war
has e0st Great Britain alone about $780,
ooo,0oo, and probably the extraordinary
ezPense Of France have been not far
iron the same amount. The national
debtof Great Britain al the close Of The
long war with France in 1915. had in
creased 10 s4o60,000,OOO. During 20
years Of peace 10 Jan. Isl, 1914. il had
been decreased only about $500. O00. 900

debt where it was in 1915, two years of
war Fiping out the surplus of twenty
nineyears of peace. The increase Of tax
