systemaaic Military Conscription.

The Cincinnati Gazettc recommends mill
tary conscription as settled institution for
this country, as it exists in European coun-
tries. 1t argues that the probable protrac-
tion of the war renders some such system
necessary in order to raise fresh recruits for
the army as they may be needed from time
to time. 1t insists that If the preservation
of the Union were abandoned, and Confed-
crate separation and independence ac-
knowledged, such conscription as an es-
tablished institution would be needed for
protection against the Confederate military
despotism, and to settle the complicated
territorial questions that would then arise.
So that in any event, come what win, this
Administration and Abolition organ goes
in for regular and systematic conscription
of all the young and able-bodied men in the
country for the purpose of creating and
maintaining at the North a permanent mil
itary despotism, after the Old World pat
tern. 1is D. sa5cs n

The Next Victim of Abolition In
fAlernnce.

The Philadelphia Press. one of the lead
ing organs Of the Abolition and Admins
tration party, contained in its editorial de-
partment, on Thanksgiving morning, q
communication, which, FoRNEY says, is
from distinguished and esteemed friend
in Chester county, The communication
In question accuses the great body of the
members of the Catholic Church with hav-
ing reasonably voted !" at the late Presi-
Dental election, and closes with this decla-
ration: " tits this combined element in our
politics which explodes in mobs, and to keep
quiet which the Government was put to so
much care and expenditu in forcing into
good behavior at the last election"
Commenting upon these atrocious as
saults on Catholics in the mass, FoRNEY re-
marks that what his correspondent says ''is
strongly and sadly true" The Catholic
Church is not FoRNEY continues, "THE
Rock OF AGES, " and should be warned that
its plots and cabals may be consigned to the
same hated obscurity in which human slave
ry is forerer sepalcheredi E54s
This warning is certainly plain and sig
b
niacant. Taken in connection with the re-
cent TRADES in GREELEY's Tribune and other
Abolition journals against the Catholic
Church and people, its meaning and pur-
port are too clear to be mistaken. 1t is
threat that if Catholic voters continue to ex-
ercise the right of free suffrage guaranteed
to them and to all other citizens by the Con-
stitutions and laws of the country, they are
to be denounced and hunted down as trail
tors. and their Church doomed to be buried
In the same grave in which their prosecutors
allege they have buried, OF will bury slave
ry. t
This is the new feast to which the revolu-
tionary radicals and destructives invite the
American people. Not satisfied with the
religious fanaticism and hatred already en-
kindled, they would fain increase the fires
of bigotry and intolerance. and give them
new object on which to gather their de-
structive energies. But we would fain hope
and believe that the great body Of the
American people, Notwithstanding the mad
ness that now seems to rule the hour, have
yet too much sanity and good sense left to
be drawn into, or permit any set of crazy
reformers and revolutionists to carry on an
anti Catholic or any other religious crusade.

THE OLD FARM HOUSE.

At the foot Of the hill, near the old red mill,
In quiet, shady spot,
just peeping through, half bid from view,
Stands little moss-grown cot;
And straaying through, at the open door,
The sunbeams play on the sanded floor.
The easy chair, all patched with care,
Is placed by the old hearthstone;
With witching grace, in the old fireplace,
The evergreens are strown,
And pictures hang on the whitcned wall,
And the old clock ticks in the cottage hall.
More lovely still, on the window sill,
The dew-eyed flowers rest,
While mid the leaves, on the mossgtown caves
The martin builds her nest
And oil day long the summer breeze
Is whispering love to the bending trees.
Over the door, all covered DER
With sack Of dark green baize,
Lies musket old, whose worth is told
In the events Of other days;
And the powder flask and the hunters horn
Have hung beside it for many morn.
For years have fed with noiscless tread,
Like fairy dreams away,
And LEFT in their flight, oil shorn Of his might,
A father, old and gray;
And the soft wind plays with his snow-white hair
As the old man sleeps in his easy chair.
In at the door, on the sanded floor,
Light, fairy footsteps glide,
And maiden fair, with aaxcn hair,
Kneels by the old mans side
An old oak wrecked by the angry storm,
While the ivy clings to its trembling form.

Treating and Flavoring Tobacco.

In Richmond, which has been the head
quarters of the tobacco business, there are
yery extensive manufactures where the
leaf is cured, and afterwards made into
Mugs for chewing. Great care and atten.
ton are necessary to the proper curing OF
it, and If the weather is moist during the
operation, it is very liable to mildew. In
clear weather it is spread on the top Of
sheds, and hung in every situation where
it can be exposed to the dry air. The sky
is watched with anxiety during such expo, ,,
sure, so that it may not receive drop OF
rain. Very frequently it receives the final
drying in warm apartments, and IN many
cases these are heated with open fires
dry corncobs being about the best fuel
that can be used. Pine and other wood
impart their rcsinous taste to the tobacco, II
the smoke is permitted to perlneate through
the leaves.
After the tobacco is perfectly cured, it is
prepared for pressing. 1t is now common
practice to favor it with some mixture OF
sweet and aromatic character. A very
common preparation is that Of the tonqua
bean, which has o pleasant odor. Vanilla
is also used, and different manufacturers
have their special mixtures. The leaves
are spread out, and slightly sprinkled with
the aromatic liquid until q sufficient quan.
tity Of the moisture is absorbed TO render
them pliable. They are then rolled into
cylindrical packages, and these are squeezed
into fiat plugs in powerful presses. A
number Of such plugs are subsequently
placed together and subjected to second
pressing operation, by which the plugs are
converted into square blocks, and thus fitted
for transport and market. ltwas formerly
the custom to place the pressed tobacco in
room called the sweat.house, where it
renamed for considerable period, exposed
to warm atmosphere. This made the 10
bacco sweat; globules Of juice appeared
on its surface and dropped on the floor,
and its taste was much improved thereby.
It Is also common with some tobacco
manufacturers to swecten the dark and rank
qualities for chewing, by dipping the leaves
in punches into sugar syrup, before press.
ing them. We have only referred to the
treatment of chewing tobacco; the superior
qualities being used for this purpose. The
terms honey dew" "sweet leaf" etc.,
applied to different lots Of tobacco, are Of
the bunkum" order. Tho best qualities
of tobacco are said to be cultivated on the
southern side Of gently sloping hill.

A poor miner in Cornwall was down
deep in the earth with another miner sink
ing q shaft. They were blasting rocks, and
their custom was, after the rock was charged,
for one to ascend in the bucket, and the
other to wait until the bucket came down
again, then ignite the fuse, get into the
bucket, give the signal to the man above,
and be drawn to the top before the explo-
sion. In the present case the train unex.
pectedly took FIRE. The fuse was Kissing,
both men rushed to the bucket, got in, and
gave the signal to hoist but the man above
could not draw them both. They at once
saw their danger; both could not escape,
and delay was death. One Of the miners
was pious. Looking for moment at his
companion, and stepping from the bucket,
he said: Escape for thy life; in few
moments / shall bc in Heaven" The
bucket was drawn up and the man was safe
Eager to know the fate of his magnani-
nous companion, he bent over the mouth Of
the shaft. just then the explosion rumbled
below; and splinter struck him on the
brow, leaving mark he will carry to the
grave. They soon commenced laboring
among the fallen rocks to extricate the
corpse. Atlast they heard voice. Their
friend was alive. They reached him, and
found him without injury or scratch. All
he could tell Of the fearful scene was, that
the moment his friend was gone, he sat
down and took up stone and held Il be-
fore his face. When asked what induced

Mildew on the vine.

The Horticulturist, for October, has an
interesting paper on mildew on grape vines,
furnished by Prof D. Silliman, junior. He
defines mildew to be fungus whose
growth seems in most cases to be connected
with some arrest Of growth or actual de.
bility in the plant on which Il appears"
Prof Silliman inclines TO the belief that
it Is rather the result Of the arrest Of growth
o. debility than the cause Of Il. Some
horticulturists seem to suppose that there
are certain varieties Of the native vine
which arc free from mildew-Allen's Hy.
brid, for example. With Prof. Silliman,
however, Aliens Hybrid has been attacked
BY mildow-though he admits that II suffers
less from this disease than most others
on account Of It's robust and vigorous foli-
age, which enables It 10 carry q great deal
Of mlldew and yet iipen its fruit. He re-
CARDS It q very desirable variety. His
conclusions from the various observations
which he has made are these:
First, that while all native varieties Of
the grape are subject TO mildew, some are
more open to its attacks than others and,
secondly, that nildew Is induced princl.
pally by cold BE
In regard to the second Of these conclu-
sions, he observes that nocturnal radiation,
in still clear nights, will often bring the
temperature Of the surface Of leaves below
that of the surrounding air. When the air
is at 80 degrees Of Fahrenheit the temper
atnre Of the leaves may be 45. Hot dry
weather by day, succeeded by clear still
nights, he has found peculiarly favorable
to tho production Of mildew--much more
so tha1 warm, damp aud cloudy weather.
He relates On instance Of q Catawba
vine trained under the shelter Of the cor
ner Of piazza, projecting more than q foot
beyond the wires 70 which the vine was
fastened. lie trained some strong shoots
Of the vine to pass beyond tho sheltered
cornice toward the roof Of the min build.
ing, where be thought the fruit would ripcn
better. Tho leaves on tho branches thus
brought out Of the shelter were attacked
with mildew, while those undcr the cornice
were but slightly, If at oil, effected by L.
He infers, therefore, that to prevent mil
dew, the vine should have some protection
from what he denominates nocturnal radla.
ton, or that loss Of warmth which is OBJ.
served to take place 50 remarkably in all
vegetation, on still night, with clear
sky. He mentions conversation which
he had with Mr.. Saunders, gardener to the
Agricultural Bureau at Washington, who
has advised constructing trellises for tho
vine, with roofs made Of two boards pro.
jecting, like the caves Of q house. not more
thanrten OF twelve inches. In tho French
treatlses on the vine, walls with projecting
caves are constantly represented.
