that RATIFICATION. The Enquirer
says "lots of fun - will be seen at the rat
ifcation meeting next Saturday night. We
haven't bit of doubt of it. 1t will be de-
cidedly funny to see Willard and Law and
Hovey astride the Democratic fence, talking
to the victims on each side; and Archy
Dixon, from Kentucky, but lately, if even
now, a Democrat, talking pro- -slaveryism to
the mixed crowd and Dan. Voorhees,, for
several years the most vehement de-
who got the District Attorneyship when
Judge Hovey was guillotined by the Adj
ministration, glorifying the man he loathes.
And then to see the farce topped off by
Shanklin, the district elector, who can't
make up his mind how to start in the Dem
ncratic jockey race. And DENLY will be
there, the near relative of Senator Fitch,
one of the btterest enemies Douglas has,
and PERSONAL y and irreconcilably his foe for
voting against his bogus claim to seat in
the United States Senate. Whittlesey, too,
will be there, and may make speech
In fact, Whit. is the only one of the crowd
who is at heart a Douglas man, unless
Judge Hovey may be, and he would entire
ly desert the Illinois Magician if he thought
the Breckinrdge ticket would win.
The meeting, with all these " harmoni-
ous" elements, will be like Barnum's
Happy Family" composed of It cage full
of pigeons, rats, snakes, owls rabbits, etc.
Then, Messrs. Bray, Rudd, Hall, Hughes,
and number of other influential gentle
men we could name, are such warm Douglas
menl How they will throw up their hats
at the mere mention of his namel Won't

Hiring Out Turkeys.

The plan of.hiring out all kinds of domestic
an mals, SO as to derive profit from their labor
is, we believe, claimed to be an American idea,
though the strict &C curacy of it might be ques-
toad. Proverbially shrewd in monetary
traGsactions, Yankeedom has acquired a repu-
tstion, somewhat exaggerated it is true, for
keenness and tact in turning a penny to the
most advantage, and in the greatest variety of
ways. We are accustomed to seeing many

How a Lady Preserved Webster Reply
to HaVne.

The Taunton (Mass.) Gazette incorporate
the following interesting reminiscence in a
notice Of the article on the National Intelli.
gencer and its Editor" in the Atlantic
Monthly:
1t will be seen from this interesting nara
tive that there was time when Joseph Gales
stood alone among Congressional reporters ;
and to still further illustrate his position in that
line we call TO mind what we once heard an
intimate friend of Mr.. Webster say we owed
TO him and his wife with regard to the celebra-
ted reply to Mr.. Hayne. Meeting the Massa-
chusetts Senator he was gong to The Capt.
ton on that morning, Mr.. Gales inquired Of
him how long he intended to speak. About
hall an hour was the reply. The editors du-
Lies at that time were pressing; but he ventur-
ed 10 take much time from them. Mr.
Webster, however, directly after met Judge
Story, who tld that he thought the time had
come to give to the country his views on the
Constitution. TO this proposition he assented.
Mr.. Gales took up his pencil, unawareiof this
new arrangement, and alike unconscious OF the
/ la pse of time under the enchantment of the
orator. and consequently he wrote on until the
close o; the spell. Some days passing away,
and the 'pEout' OF the speech not appearing,
| Mr.. Webster called on the reporter and made
! inquiry. | have the notes. said Dir. Gales, and
they are at your service, Us shall never find
time to write them out. This led to some
remonstrance and persuasion, but the over.
tasked editor stood firm. Then Mrs. Gales
came to his rescue by saying that she thought
she could decipher her husbands short hand
as she had formerly occasionally doHe so.-
Mr.. Gales doubted, seeing that it was fifteen
years since she had tried it, But she had
heard the speech, and as the ressteSs SWEEP
of its argument and the gorgeous and massive
magnlccnce of lie imagery were yet vivid il
her mind, she persisted in undertaking the diff
ficut work In due time thereafter the ia
manuscript came to Mr.. Webster's hands fo
final correction. Scarcely word needed t.
be changed; and soon set of diamonds cost
ing thousand dollars accompanied the rc
thanks of the eloquent statesman. Thus wa
saved to literature the most memorable ora

They were to be employed in the tobacco fields
in assisting the farmer TO rid the plant OF the
numerous worms to which it is subject at GER
tain seasons of the year. This worm they are
very fond Of, and hunt for it among the plants
with great avidity. Hence the value Of their
services to sgriculturists. A flock OF one hun
dred turkies, at this rate, would bring in quite
a revenue to a small family. Seventy-fve dol
lars for three months labor, besides the adVan
tage of coming from their labor fat and healthy,
to be prepared readily for market. AS draw
back to this, the same writer remarks, that af-
ter the performance of their summer labor,
the turkies will be almost as good chewing
as the tobacco" We said drawback we spoke
probably a little too fast. In the year 1919,
when the letter referred to was written, il
might have been so. But now the taste for to.
bacco has become SO general, with both sexes,
that we are by no means certain that the de
licious flavor impaired by the weed would not
be recommendation to the popular taste. 1t
might be tc some persons very agreeable way
OF gratifying it. At any rate, this article will
suggest to the farmer mode of employing the
labor of his turkies 10 his advantage. They
might, perhaps, be as proftably employed il
destroying the worms and insects that prey
upon other crops. If fany of our agriculture
friends conclude to advertise for the service o
turkies, at good wages, we will just reminC
them that our columns are just the place for it

INFLUENCE OF MISSIONS UPON COMMERCE.
In lS46 the Church Missionary Society com-
meneed operations at Abbeokuta, West Africa.
One result in its efforts has been, that a very
considerable quantity of cotton is sent to the
English market every year. 1t was not TIL
1852 that the fret bales cleaned by machinery,
and presses and packed for European coRsump-
ton, were dispatched. Now there are several
hundred gins at work in Abbeokuta and the
neighboring farms. There are also several
screw presses, some in the possession of native
traders. If we take into account the ada D.
tiOn of the soil in Yoruba for the production of
cotton, and the abundance Of cheap labor to be
had. it is not easy TO say whore unto this traffic
shall grow. Its increase, thus far, has been
constant and healthful; aad there is no good
reason TO believe it will be otherwise hereafter.

MISCELLAN NEOUS.
Universal Suffrage in Europe.

t. influence that American example is
hay 9 on European politics, is manifest in
meay recent events. but especially in the pro-
.r,>s SO rapidly made by the idea Of universal
suffrage. A few years ago the Emperor OF
Fra ce acknowledged the potency ofthis nfu-
encs. He submitted his claims to the greatest
throne in Continental Europe to the decision
Of the ballotbOxes, and rules now by virtue of
the Endorsement he thus and then Obtained

lomat.c notes had in vain discussed, and Tor the
s'conI time was a peaceful result attained
Now, however, a still more important homage
is paIG to the principle which lies at the ba sls
Of American institutions. A king enters for
egn State at the head of an army; Victor
Emanuel, descending from line of kings, a
legitimist, not like Louis Napoleon a splendid
upstar. but one Of the old stock, offers to refer
his ella m to the sovereignty of a nation to the
vote of the people over whom be aspires to
reign. Kings no longer govern by divine
right, unless we read anew the proverb which
declares tie voice Of the people is the voice Of
Cod FFhn of he &C. I'D inia

significant circumstances 10 the history of the
