there is not a house or garden fence left stand

We will then have parties arranged under

conditional negro suffrage advocates; second.
the Fogy Democracy, or Constitution as il is "

equality of States by equality of votes in appoT-
tionment; fourth, the Democracy, or those who
will cenhns the privileges of the elective fran
chse, including also the basis of enumeration
aud apportienment TO the white citizen Of the
United States The first and second divisions
will be very small. so that the two parties inclu-
ded under the third and fourth heads will be the
real and active antagonists in our near political
future.
According to tins programme, Lane and erth
will be left with the first division out in the cold

A Farmer without Arms.

W. NJ. Beauchamp, Onondaga county. n. Y j.,
sends TO the American Agriculsurist interest
ing account OF farmer he formerly knew who
was born without arms. Instead OF appealing
to the charitable for support, he commenced
sxrly to help himself His FIRST property was a
hen and chickens, next a pet lamb, and after
wards a shaggy colt He took good care of
these, and increased bis stock little at a time,
until he became prosperous farmer. Having
no hands, he learned TO use his toes, which were
longer than common. His legs were also very
flexible. and by practice he was enabled to readily
perform most operations with ease. He put on
and took of his own clothing, shaved and fed
himself, MIXED his own cows, and took part in
most labors of the farm. He was terror TO evil
doors, whom be could punish with severity. He
was powerfully built, and possessed of great
strength in the head and shoulders He would
butt like a ram, seize an offending urchin with
his teeth and shake him with bulldog tenscity
He died at the age Of seventy. leaving large
family, having been married three times
