freeze in the coolest nights. have
grown pair of steer calves, on hay and
nothing else, cut the last Of June and
again in August. They both came the
same day, the fifth Of April, 1868, which
makes them thirteen months old to day.
have just weighed them aud one weighs
7O6 and the other 7I6 lbs, making the
weight of the pair 1922 lbs. | weighed
them the LIST day of November last and
the weight was APO and 424, making the
pair 044 lbs, which makes the growth
from the first day of November Up to-
this day 478 lbs, making the average
weight per day fraction over one and a
half lbs. each. showed last fall that the
crop OF hay could be doubled from two toI
four tons | now show you the quality Of
two tons Of hay cut in June, and again
in August, doubles the growth of stock
as you see above; and then you have
two tons more hay to the acre to grow
more stock, or sell, under the new rule
than under the old. As they are paying

The BOND OF THE UNIoN.-In the
Senate, the other day, while the new
rule, requiring only a majority of the
senators elected to constitute a quorum,
was under discussion, there was a keen
encounter between Reverdy johnson of
Maryland and Garrett Davis Of Ken
lucky as to the actual bond Of union that
holds The states together. Mr.. Davis
had said that if we acknowledge the in
dependence Of the southern confe9eracy.
the Union Itself would be dissolved and
every state be thrown back upon its own
original sovereignty, Mr.. johnson de
MED this, He said if the seeded states
should be blotted out Of existence by
som natural convulsion, the Union
would still exist in the remaining states /;
that there Is nothing 10 the constitution
which requires that each state is to re-
main in the Union forever; and that the
loss Of one or more on comp1lsion or by
consent does not sever the bond of the
Union.
The Maryland senator is partly right
and partly wrong. Ii the South can win
its Independence an d compel US to
acknowledge the accomplished fact il
will not release the remaining states and
resolve the Union into its constituent
elements. Yet to permit the secession
OF one or more states without supreme
effort TO prevent it would have been in
spirit and in fact an utter dissolution of
the Union it would have cut toe essen
tial bond which holds the states togeth-
er in the Union.
These theories about the Union NAV
seem Of little practical Importance, since
as matter of fact we are determined that
the Union shall not be broken up and
yet 1t is important that in our war poll
cy, and in the political reconstruction ar- !
ter the war, we refuse to give the least
liberation to the dogma of secession. We |
must stick 10 our first assertion that the |
Union is not dissolved, and cannot and /
shall not be dissolved. If we yield an
iota from this impregnabIe position we |
involve oECselves in all sorts of lheoret
ical absurdiIies aud practical complica-
tons. that will put our politics in a snarl |
for half century after the war. In
doctrine as well as in battle we must
stand by the Upon.-SpringfeH Re
