do we hear this ? 1t is, sir, because of
this copartnership between the State
of New Jersey and this Camden and
Amboy Railroad Company. The rail-
road company makes New Jersey rich.
and New Jersey says, 81 will protect
you to my last breath, even to the send
ing of a respectable protest to Con-
gress to intimidate them from tramp
hing upon your rights and upon our
sovereign soil"
MIR. Rogers: l ask the gentleman
TO permit me to interrupt him.
Mr.. Woodbridge: Certainly.
Mr.. Rogers: Does the gentleman
from Vermont undertake to say that
the Camden and Amboy Railroad Com
pany elect members Of Congress from
New Jersey?
Mr.. Woodbridge: 1 think that that
is the belief.
Mr.. Rogers; / only want to say that
there is not word of truth in that
declaration. II he is a gentleman he
ought not to get up here and make a
remark of that character. That asser-
ton is false. The company has moth
ing to do with the election Of mem
bers of Congress from New jersey.
Mr.. Woodbridge: l have respect
for the gentleman from New Jer-
sey. He comes here on the broad seal
of that State, which he says is so sa-
cred that we ought to respect it. He
has come here, l have no doubt, to act
as an honorable gentleman. | have nc
doubt he does so act. He is quite a
young man yet, and take his state
ment as true to the best of my infor-
nation and belief / have information
which | consider equally good as that
OF the gentleman from New Jersey. IT
comes from gentleman who states the
facts to me that L have stated to the
House: that the conventions which
nominate members Of Congress in New
Jersey, are attended by the represen.
tatives of the Camden and Amboy
Company, and that they put their foot
upon this man or raise up that man as
he may best subserve the purpose Of
the monopoly. That | believe to be
| true.
Now, sir l will not detain the House
know that they do not wish to hear
any more on the subject. / have dis.
cussed the legal point. 1 am satisfied
in my own mind of the power of pass
ing the pending bill. l am satisfied o.
its expediency on my integrity as q
member of the House; and believing
as do, that Congress has the power
and that the interests of the Govern.
ment require its passage for free com.
mercial intercourse between the great
States Of New York and Pennsylvania
L shall give it my support.

BorLrSe FooD roN Hoes AT a recent
meeting of the Farmers Club, Prof.
Mapes made the following remarks in
regard to boiling food for hogs: "The
proof of the saving of food by boiling
has been given here, and as it can be
stated in very few words we may as
well have it. Mr.. Mason was watch
maker in Camden, n j., and among
other fancies he liked to keep hogs.
He had his hog-pen just back of his
shop, so that he could sit at his window
and watch his hogs Every spring he
bought some pigs and fed them through
the season. just opposite OF MIR. Ma
son was the store of Mr.. Van Arsdale,
and every pound of food that Mr.. Ma
son gave to his pigs he bought at this
store. At the end of six months he got
his bill from Mr.. Van Arsdale, and he
always slaughtered his hogs at that
tlme, so that he knew exactly how
much his pork cost For several years
it figured up about thirteen cents per
pound. At length some one advised
him to boil his corn. He accordingly
got large kettle and cooked all the
food which he fed to his pigs. Then
ms pork cost him four and a quarter
cents per poundl We also had the ex-
perience of Mr.. Campbell, which was
about the same as Mr. Mason's. Hen
NY Ellsworth made some extensive ex-
periments in the same thing, and his
statement is that thirty pounds of raw
corn makes as much pork as thirteen
pounds of boiled corn. ="

your paper, / will undertake, in the
next, to give my reasons for pruning in
June, July, and August, and sugges-
tons as to why and how we should
prune.--E. ID. WRIGHT in Genesee Far
mer.
REMAREs.-We are glad to find some
one occasionally, bold enough to de-
nounce the ruthless practice Of prun-
ing trees when the sap is in an active
condition. Prune when the tree is in
comparatively quiet condition-say
from June Is to the end of the month
or for a month after the leaves fall.
There are physiological reasons for this
which we have often referred to in
these columns.-Ne,o England Farmer.

JUNE is THE TINE. TO PRUNE FRUIT
TREEs.--I am aware at what disadyan-
tage | place myself when 1 undertake
to controyert such authority, namely,
Mr.. Barry, of Rochester, and MIR. Har-
ais, Editor of the Genesee Farmer, and
would not put the case SO strongly in
opposition to common practice, had l
not in every instance, where / have in
duced any one to try pruning in June
succeeded in gaining their acknowl-
edgement that June is the time tC
prune fruit trees.
Nor would l venture TO adyocat'
such practice upon my own experience

for it. Such as cannot be gainsaye'

In every business or profession. indeed in every

bold relief among his fellows, as srt OF leader.
In the study and treatment of deafness and catarrh,

He has devoted years of labor to this speciality and
is now reapng the reward of his industry. The
editorial columns of tho Tribune. of recent date,
bear witness to the Doctors success in this depart
ment of medicine. We quote the paragraph:

lad fourteen years of age, born in Germany, came
to this city when he about two years old. Soon
after his arrival here he was taken sick and lost his
hearing. BY degrees he became first deaf and then
dumb. For nearly ten years he was mute unable
to hear the oudest voice, or TO articuste word -
About ono year ago he was placed by his parents in
the hands of DR.. LIGHTHlLL, who has 50 FAR sue
ceeded in restoring to him his lost powers OF hear
ing and utterance that he can converse with those
who speak to him distinctly and deliberately. Dur
ing the past four or five months be has been under
the tuition of Mr.. BENNEcKE. and has made consid-
erable progress in reading and arithmetic"
Having been supplied with the lads address. we
further investigated the matter, and discovered
that. previous to calling on DR.. LIGHTHILL, the
youths considered hopeless, and he was for
two years an inmate Of the Deaf and Dumb Asy-
lum. The Rev. JOHN NoTT, ID d., Professor in
Union College. Schenectady, in published letter,
tenders his gratitude to Dr. LIGHTHILL for treating
successfully his case of deafness Rev. FRED. s.

DIR. LlGHTHILL possesses other testimonials and
tributes to his talent from some Of our wcalthiest
and most prominent and respected citizens, which

The Vote for President among the
Union Prisoners i'm Richmond.
From The Richmond Examiner. Nov. o.


Yesterday being the day of the Presi-
Dental election North, out of curiosity a
vote was allowed to be taken among the
Yankee wounded prisoners of war in Hos
pital No. 2l, in charge of Surgeon Semple.
Commissioners and clerks were selected
from among the prisoners, Of whom there
are about five hundred in the hospital. in
cluding good many negro soldiers
Though the negroes claimed the right of
suffrage, because fighting for the Union, the
commissioners decided against them. and
only the white Yankees were allowed to
deposit their ballots. The negroes there
upon threatened to refer the question to
Massa Linkum for his decision. The vote
stood as follows: Commissioned officers
Mcclellan, ii; Lincoln, 81. Non-commis-
stoned officers and privates Nc Clellan,
2s9; Lincoln, 1873. Majority for Lincoln
among the commissioned officers, 10; ma
iority for Mcclellan among the rank and
file, i56. Doubtless this was fairer elec-
tion than was witnessed at any voting
place In Yankeedom yesterday. rhe voters
voted their sentiments; there was no "mar-
row fatting'' OF tickets after the manner OF
the New York politicians; no stuffing OF

A1tnchment Against Gen. Butler.

GEN. BUFFERS campaign in New York
was not all glory, dinners, speeches ana uh-
alloyed good cheer. His creditors got after
him, and doubtless gave him considerable
trouble. The following is from the court
record OF that city on Friday:
The will of Andrew j. Butler was ad-
mitted to probate; but just previous To
the signing of the bondS Surrogate tucker
was served with a copy of writ OF at
taehment issued out of the Court of
Common Pleas, some ten days since, by
Judge Cardozo, In q suit wherein
Samuel Smith and Andrew II. Smith are
plaintiffs, and Benjamin F. Butler, defend
ant, the claim amounting to one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars, alleged to have
arisen ona seizure of gold made by the de-
fendant in May, 1852 at New Orleans, La,
the plaintiffs then being private bankers in
New Orleans, under the firm name Of s.
Smith & Co.
They claim that the defendant forcibly
entered the bankingrooms ut y Canal
street, In the aforesaid city, seized all their
funds, private accounts, and 100000 in gold
coin. and retained all of them until the fol-
lowing July, when everything was returned
except the gold, which the defendant, it is
alleged, converted to his own use.
The summons and complaint in the ac-
tion, together with copy Ofthe attachment,
were served on the General by Under Sheriff
Vulte.
The Sheriff has also attached all the funds
belonging to the defendant from the Gov
ernment and now in the sub-treasury, also
the moneys due to him On his account at
his private bankers.

which now controls them. 1t by no means
follows that they will be able to maintain
the war for four years, or for one. King
George and his Parliament declared. In the
close of 1871, that they would prosecute the
war against the colonies with renewed vigor
and still stronger resolve; but before the
winter was over the people constrained
them to assent to peace. So 1t may be with
our enemies. Their present ferocity has
been fed OH false reports of victory and
false assurances of speedy success. Such
arts may carry an election, but cannot sus-
tain people under the trials and disap-
pointments of weary campaigns.
1t is our business, however, to accept the
enemy's defiance as 1t comes. Seward has
told the people Of Auburn that the news of
Lincoln's election will strike us with dis
may. How little he knows us, even yeti
That proclamation of ferocious hate and
determined war will be met with haugh,
tier courage and loftier resolution! By
the blessing of God, Lincoln shall find q
wide difference between his purpose and its
accomplishment. He may make war, but
he cannot command submission; and, If 1t
is his resolve that his people shall employ
their energies in the destruction of our peo-
pie, he shall find that we are not unresist-
ing victims, and that we can give blows as
well as receive them.

UNION men will be glad to learn that the
Hon. James NJ. Ashley, of the 10th District
of Ohio, is reelected by handsome
majority. The Coppers have persistently
ciphered him out, but the soldiers cipher
him in by over S00.-N. Y.Trtme.
JIM ASHLEY beat disabled soldier,
whose wounds found no charity among the
peculiar friends of the soldiers such as follow
The Tribune. Col. RICE was defeated be-
cause the soldiers with whom lie served
could get no RICE tickets, ASHLEY having
succeeded in preventing Democratic tickets
from reaching the camp. 1t is said that
even Gen. STEEDMAN, who was warmly in
favor of Col. RICE, could procure no printed
ticket with his name upon it on the day of
election. "Union men" will of course re-
joice at this great triumph.
