BATHING.

Once week is often enough b for decent
white man to wash himself all over, and
whether in summer or winter, that ought 10
be done with, soap, warm water, and . hogs
hairbrush, in room showing at least seven
ty degrees Fahrenheit. 49,. ..,. 81
Baths should be taken early in the msrn.
ing, for it is then that the system possesses
the power of reaction 10 the highest degree.
Any kind Of bath is dangerous soon after
fatiguing exercise. No man, or woman,
should take bath at the close OF the. day,
unless by the advice ofthe family physician.
Many man, in attempting to cheat his doc
tor out of fee, has cheated himself ont Of
his life ay, tits done every day. ....
The best, cheapest, and most universally
accessible mode of,keeping thesurface Of the
body cleant besides the once a week wash-
ing; with soap, warm water, and hogs hair
brush, is as follows: ~ ~. - u
Soon as you get out Of bed in the morning,
wash your face, hands, neck, and breast ;
then, into the same basin Of water, put both
feet at once, for about minute, rubbing
them briskly all the time; then, with the
towel, which has been dampened by wiping
the face, feet, &c., wipe the whole body we'll,
fast and hard, mouth shut, breast projecting.
Let the whole thing be. done within FIVE
minutes. ~ 49,. ...-.t..t
At-night, when you 60 to bed, and when.
ever you get out of'bed during the night, or
when You find yourself wakeful or restless,
spend from two to FIVE minutes in rubbing
your whole body with your hands, as far as
you can reach, in every direction. Fhis has
a tendency to preserve that softuess and mo-
biity of skin;. which is essential to health,
and which too frequent washings will always
destroy. -

ASSUMING AIRS oFMAsTERs.

Under the head of "Black Republicanisu
vs.. State Rights, " the Columbia (Ga. Times
and Sentinel of the 18th ult., quotes the fol
lowing as having appeared inthe New York
Courier and Enquirer of the goth of las'
February:
elf any State should attempt to secede,
she will be whipped into subjectiou. Should
they continue refractory, the United States
would be compelled, ultimately, to hold such
refractory States as colonies, just as Spain
and other European powers hold their slaue
colonies-until such time as it might be safe
to rely upon their obedience.
elf southern State should attempt te
resist, she will be made to submit and beat
herself with Difference and respect thereaf
ter to those who are morally and socially hel
equals, and politically and physically he'
superiors, and when provoked to demonstrate
it, if needs be, her masters"
Unmistakable language, that: but tho more
unmistakable than the language used in more
important quarters. Other Freesoil journals
have said the same thing; and Freesoil Sen.
ators and Representatives on the floor Of Con.
gress, during the present session, have made
declarations which amounted to the same
thing. Senator Hamlin, of Maine, said the
south should not 60 out Of the Union under
any circumstances-th the north would
compel her to remain if she tried to CO.
Senator Seward stated that the battle had
been fought and won by the Freesoilers, and
intimated that the Union should last, and
that he expected to live untilthe footstep Of
a-slave. should not pollute the soil of the
North American continent. And all the
important leaders and organs Of Freesoilism
have made declarations equivalent to the a.
bove, although couched in different language.
All appear imbued with the idea that the tri-
umph of fanaticism is near at hand, and ex-
press savage exultation over the prospect that
their long prosecuted, hated and pursued
enemy, will soon be in their power, helpless,
bound hand and foot. Their jubilations
partake more of the brutal characteristics of
wild Indians, than civilized white men.
There's "many slip between the cup and
lip" according to the quaint old saying, and
the fanatics may yet fail in their uuhallowed
schemes of oppression, plunder and spOlia-
ton. That rich and glorious prize, the south,
may yet escape their internal clutches
Nothing but union, harmony and determine.

some ten or twelve Divisions, the increase is very

take great pleasure in recording, officially, the
organization of two new Divisions since our last
meetine-both located in the banner District OF
York The first was organized on the 18th Feby by
D, G. p, brother John G. ,Enloe, under the
name of "Olivet Division, No. l5, and the second
on the 18th of March, by D. G.. W. p, brother
VIM. G. Beatty, under the name Of benevolent
Division, No. TO-"
The following Divisions on our register have
made no returns yet for ths past quarter, VIZ: VIZ

So; Greenwood, No. 80; Beaverdam, No AZ ;
Fort Mill, No. At; Pacolett, No. 81; Hanging
Rock, No. 81. All Of these were notified about
the middle Of April, and urged to make returns
without delay.
Kings Mountain Division, No. Is, has formally
surrendered its Charter to me, but its 'other prop
erty" has not yet been turned over that an a.
ware Of; and there was balance against 1t on the
books of this Office of SIS %, when it disbanded:
have also received information from Fort Mill
Division, No. Al, which leads me to conclude that
it is either dead or dying. The following other
Divisions are believed to be dead from the lapse OF
time since any of them have communicated with

II; Fidelity, No. 10; New Hope, No. 2l Snow

therefore propose, that the Gand Division de.
clare the Charter of all these delinquent Divisions
forfeited, and Deputies in whose jurisdic-
tions they may be located, to demand their
"Charters and other property" in behalf of this
body, if no good reason can be shown to render

Important to Farmers.
HUNGARIAN GRASS SEED

TNHE first of this grass known in the Uni ed
i States was brought to MOI roe county, Iowa,
by a company of hungarian em gra nts, in the year
1853, and given ly them to a farmer in the vicn
ty of Alba, tc sow trial, which proved SO salts
factory, that the seed eagerly sought after by
all who had opportunity OF seeing it while grow
ing: A sber of farm ers procured seed the next
year the yield of which was so astonishingly large
that the next season it spread through tho adjon-
ing ties, and has become standard production
of that portion of tho State.
Thi, grass differs widely from the milct, and
.ainly is distinct grass. The yield is much great
r per ave, and the grass and hay is of q superior
quality to either mi!let, timothy or clover. 1t
stands very firm upon tie ground when properly
sown, and an ordinary yield is from to Z and 8
tons per acrs.
VIM. Dixon, resident Of Monroe county, Iowa,
raised eight and one-half tons of this grass upon
one acre, which took the premiums a the county
fair. common yield Of the seed is from 80 to 40
bushels per acre.
1t is emph,tically the grass for Iowa, Illinois
and Missouri, and for all SO Is of vegetable forma-
ton The time for sowing it may vary fro the
LIST of May to the LIST of July, and can sown as
late as August, and yield a better crop than tim
othy. The manner of preparing the ground is the
same as for what and oats: it should Re narrowed
before being svwed. and then narrowed 10 and roll
ed. This amount Of seed may vary-if for hay enc
third busheI if for seed, one fourth bushel.
Cattle and sheep will cat this hay in prcfe'cnc to
timothy or clover, and will fatten on il without
grain. Horses pref it to threshed cate, and will
do better en- il alone than timothy, clover, oats
and corn, willie performing labor every day.
One great advantage to the farmer is, that he
may sow the seed in lots ut different tmas DUNG
the Spring, and consequently viii It be hurr.ed
in harvest-in fact, he let the grass stand or
10 days after it is ripe and it will not injure. An
other great inducement to the farmer is, that he
can SOW it upon his stubble ground afte he has bar
vested his wheat or oats, and raise sos d crop.
