LzlUeS sharp" The manufacturer had, pre-
sume, learned TO know that very mary Of the
failures on the part of farmers to make Their
moving machn.s work satisfactorily, proceed
ed from want of attention to the injunction
contained in the four words SO conspcu0uSiy
painted upon the machine. 1t seems strange
any such admonition should be necessary but
facts are stubborn things" and it canuot be
denied that 90 little attention is given to door
out in plCments, vi en- in use, or when not in use.
No nation eXpends SO much money for imple
mentS as the American, and none so careless
of them. In fact 4 e purchase of improved
implements is one of the heaviest taxes ImpOS-
ed upon Us but it is equally clear that we
double our taxation in this particular by our
abuse of them The leisure season Of the far
uer is at h n, and this the proper time, there
fore, to direct their attention to this matter
Where shall they begin With the first tool
or implement they meet after reading this
1t they have done with plowing aud narrowing
fer the season, let every pillow, harrow, and cul-
tiyator be taken to the implement house, pre-
suming of course, that every we'll conducted
farm is provided with one of these indispensa-
bles Every shovel, hoe, spade, or rake should
be similarly cared for, and the first lGsnre
hour, or rainy day, appropriated to putting
them in proper order for the use at any me-
ment BY this ! mean that every part Of
every tool should be cariuIly examined every
nut and bolt should be seen to The adhering
dirt should be washed from both iron and wood
work and this should be done before the
bright or polished parts us moldboards &c,
begin to rust. Apply little tallow or oil to
these parts procure some good oil paint, the
best is the cheapest,) and give coat of it to
every part Of the woodwork One coat OF
paint is worth half dozen Of varnish, at least
such varn'sh as is usually applied to agricuI-
tural implements Examine the moving ma
chine knives, file or grind out the hicks, put
a good edge on them, and after oiling them to
prevent rust, lay them carefully aside. Re-
move all the gummed oil from the glaring and
journals Of your mowers, thrashers cOrn-shel
ters, &c. have the bunted harrow teeth taken
to the Smith and pointed, and do not forget
to have the plowshare laid anew, and the cut
Ter of the plow sharpened. In q word, have
every thing in such order that it will be ready
when wanted. This, properly attended to,wil
cave to one half of the annual outlay for implc-
ments. Try it for one season, and my word
for it the system will be adopted by every one
who has any disposition or desire to economist
his expenditures. ABNER Brooks.

from excessive drinking.

Spaulding, of Cleveland, was the candl-
date Of the Anti-slavcry sentiment OF the
Reserve, and Judge Gholson OF
the conservative sentiment of Cincinnati
and Southern Ohio, the honesty OF these
papers can be appreciated when they at
tempt to cry HIM down with the stale cry
of Abolitionistl For ourselves, we could
wish he had a deeper baptism into the
spirit of what these papers are pleased to
call Abolitionism. But, knowing him To
be eminently qualified to grace the posi-
tion to which he has been nominated, we
think the people will do as they did in the
case of Judge Swan-laugh al the frantic
impotence Of sham Democracy and cleo

perate and unprincipled effort is to be
made this Fall than ever before. We had
supposed that the fanatic cry Of Abolition
ist! and Woolly Head! had become so
stale that after five successive rebukes by
the people, the leaders would have given
il IN and betaken themselves to something
else. But it seems the faEaticlsm has be-
come chronic. We read of a vast con-
course Of people, moved by n similar Ia
nalicism, knowing not what they said nor
whereof they affirmed, yet all, with one
accord, for the space Of about two ho~FS'
crying out with one voice, "Cireat Is
Diana Of the Ephesians." The scene
must have been a strange, as well as a sad
one, and doubtless the great apostle and
his few friends, with all their feelings
reused to pity for the unteasoning multi
tude, felt a slight rising of righteous in
dionation at the leaders whose only motive
was that their craft was in danger
But we believe history gives no accoun
Of a similar cry having been bepC up WIFI
ont cessation for five whole years. Oui
coppersmilhs Lave improved on the per,
severance Of their illustrious predecessors
But perhaps the difference is, that in the
one ease the profits of the craft were only
endangered, while in the modern instan &c
they have been suspended. Perhaps il
Paul had been rs successful as the Repub
leans, the dismal howl would have beer
kept up as long.
Doubtless the Ephcsians thought Their
was wonderful potency in the monotonou
repetition of their cry, for it is Of the ma
ture Of all fnnaticism to be partially in
sane, and in proportion as the doctrine il
false and absurd, will be the faith of it
devotees, and the more vile and contempti
BILE the idol, the deeper will be the debase
ment and servility of its worshipers. W
have not time to-day to make the applica
ton.

The Best JORC Vet.

John G. SAKE, the Connecticut poet, has
said some very funny things in his lte'
causing a deal of merriment, not only to
his particular friends, but to the public as
well. He is emphatically a wag, loves a
good joke, and can say and do more odd
and laughable eccentricities than any other
man in the State. In fact, he is in his
element only when SO employed. But the
funniest thing, decidedly, which John G.
ever did was his recent acceptance Of tic
nomination for Governor By tie Dem0c-
yacy of that State!

A couple of weeks since we gave notice
that we would receive subscription for the
campaign, at the rate of fifty cents for four
months, with an additional copy 10 the
getter-up Of every club of ten, whether
al sent to the same Office or not. If our
readers appreciate the importance of the
coming election, and desire success, we
think shey could not accomplish the same
amount Of effective work by so little etlor'.
as by giving a wide circulation to the
..Telegraph." We therefore appeal t"
them with confidence to make the needed
effort. Five hundred names might easily
be obtained in a week If all would give
sl:ylt attention to tie subject. 1t is need
less to say that we have no great pecunI'
AIRY interest in the matter, as we are oIler'

will show Il life in the Republican party o

T'he wheat Crop.

After another weeks inquiry OF our
own farmers, and a careful examination OF
the reports in our exchanges, we are happy
to announce that throughout the country
the harvest will be a beunteous one. Frost
and fly have committed their ravages, to
be sure, and have cut off, to some extent,
the universal promise of the early Sum
mer, but instead of complaints the country
has abundant cause for gratitude, and en-
courapement for the future.
