BLACK REPuBLIcANIsM AND CHRIS
TrANrrY.-Thc Hamilton (ohio,) True
Telegraph says:
The class of men who have brought so
much trouble upon the country, within
the last four or five years, have managed
also to control the churches. We have
sometimes been amused TO see these wo'd-
be "ights of the earth. OF course we
do not speak of the whole republican par
ty, or of all members of churches, for
each have honorable exceptions. This,
however, is about the programmes:
About six o'clock, Sunday morning,
these people commence putting on long
faces preparatory to going TO the place Of
Worship. They go to church and hear n
sermon, not to forgive your enemies, but
TO carry death, war and destruction to the
homes of a people who never harmed you.
These holy men then return to their
homes and anxiously await the coming Of
Monday, when they are ready to attend
70 thelr worldly afalrs' Ibe first thing
they do is to cheat some poor fellow or
to get n government contract whereby
the people are to be robbed,
They affect great loyalty by sending
some poor fellow TO some recruiting Off
Ger, and making fifty or hundred dollars
for themselves. They then 90 home at
night and pray for more war and desttuc-
ton. They ask God to kill all democrats,
The next day they incite mobs and urge
Others to kill their neighbors, not having
the bravery to do it themselves. They
put in the whole week swndling the gov
ernment, wishing men mobbed, talking
loyalty and praying God TO keep them at
home, where no stray bullet shall ever
enter the portals of their earthly taberna-
cles.

FRIENDSHIP.


feel that the more, the more know,
That friendship is thing apart,
AImute assurance Of the heart,
A faith that little cares for show.
sympathy of soul and soul,
Which feel themselves in spite OF birth
And all the petty cares Of earth,
Two halves Of an eternal whole.
That asks no change, if uhdeceived,
And shuns to court the vulgar eye,
Contented in obscurity,
II believes and be believed.
A lamp that needs but little oil,
But is with its own burning fed,
A virgin stream, that will not wed
Or mix itself with earthly soil.
A beauty that no tongue can tell,
That undcrlics one common dust,
As bright beneath the rough-ribbed crust
Glistens the glory of the shell.
Felt in the pressure Of the hand,
Though face and voice be stern the while,
Sent in the message Of a smile,
That only two can understand.

Tiff BEST WHITEwAsH.-Mr. Uriah
Richie, we'll known in Boston rs mas
ter-builder, and one of the owners of the
immense building, in New York, in which
are located the offices Of the Scientific
american establishment, gives to us the
following recipe for whitewashing. Mr..
Rtchie is a practical and successful me-
chanic, in the broadest sense, and after
forty years experience at mason-work,
and after having made a great many ex-
periments in the art of preparing white
washes, he comes TO the following conclu-
sionsi
/. For rough, outside walls-tbose ex-
posed to the weather-the best mixture
is clear lime and water. Any animal or
vegetable substance added diminishes the
adhesion and durability of the wash.
2. But if the wall is hard and smooth,
the wash Is improved by n mixture of We
ry fine sand-as much ms will mix and
can be applied.
8. For inside walls an addition of q
little glue-say aquarter Of pound to
three pailfulls--increases the adhesion. II
it is desired to have tho walls very white,
the whites of eggs may be used in the
place of the Scientific american.

Root Culture.

1t must be admitted, says the Rural
american, that the most successful farm.
ing is that which obtains the greatest
mass Of sustenapce in the least possible
space. Then if by the cultivation of roots
the capabilty of the soil for supporting
animal life can be doubled then the pow
er of agriculture is increased at the same
ratio.
Which of the roots that are usually cul-
tivated are the most valuable, is ques-
tion that can be answered only by the
cutivator; for it depends wholly upon
the object of their use. For the food Of
man, there is no vegetable containing so
much nutritious value as the potatoe.-
As food for cattle, turnips, beets and car
rots are excellent, and their cultivation for
this purpose is highly profitable. BY
many, the beet crop is considered the best
grower for stock. Over thirty tons can
be raised to the acre, or on an average,
one thousand bushels. The mangel-
wurtzel is, perhaps, the best variety, all
things considered, MS they can be grown
upon any soil that will produce corn, and
crown to very great size. They should
be planted from the first 10 the middle of
Mayor earlier, If the ground is warm
enough-in rows from twenty inches to
two feet apart; they need space, light and
air to thrive. Two seeds should be plant
ell in a hill, and when the plants are fair
ly started, thin 10 one, leaving the best.
If the ground is deeply and thoroughly
prepared before planting, and well cult
tated after, beets may be grown that will
weigh thirty pounds each. 1t is estimat-
ed that six bushels OF mahgle-wurIzel
beets can be raised as easy as one of car
rots, and that the expense is not as great
to raise mn acre Of them ms an acre of
corn. All kinds of stock are very fond
of themi they make an excellent spring
feed, and are preferable to carrots and
turnips for mich cows, ms they do not
taint the milk,
The carrot is valuable root, and for
horses is, perhaps, the best; fed alternate
with grain, they aEp excellent; they are
very uourishng add healthy The car
rot is not rs easily raised as the beet or
turnip, for there is greater difficulty in
keeping them free from weeds while grow
ing. They require a deep, loamy soib
thoroughly enriched, and great care in
cultivation. They should be planted one
half inch deep in drills froin twenty to
thirty inches apart. AS soon ms well up,
they should be thinned to five or six inch
es. For winter use, the Long Orange
and the Altringham are the best varieties;
for early use, the Early Horn is best
The easiest way of harvesting is to hoe
off the tops and run q plow close TO the
rows before pulling.
The turnip crop is good one. The
Long White French is one of the best
cultivated; but it is thought that fiat
turnips will stand moro freezing without
injury. When sown among corn or to-
bacco the Red Strap Leaf, or Cow Horn,
