EXPENSES.

In estimating the cost of keeping his cows, Mr..
Jones calls his pasturage worth from $50 to-
S25 per acre. He estimates two acres Of land
sufficient pasture for g cow per season, which,
valued at $45, at FER ceat. amounts to rs,
leaving eighty five cents for taxes and other
contingencies. The average price of hay In
1868 was s. per ton, making $S, worth of hay
for each COW, which with interest, taxes and
contingencies amount to $i2,75 per head.
MIR. j. commences to manufacture cheese
about the first of March and contin ues till about
the first OF January; aud makes it profitable to
commence so early and milk so late, by having
underground stalls well lighted and ventilated,
for his cows in cold weather, so that they are
comfortable in winter as well as GUNNER. They
come out in high order in the spring. When
the cows drop their calves, he feeds them with
an abundance of good hay, with meal or bran
once a day till pasture becomes plenty. From
the first of November until January he stables
his cows and feeds them with well cured corn
stalks. The result is much richer milk, If not

THE OLD WOMAN.

There was good old woman-now list tn,
song | sing
Who with tin pail on her arm, did star
forth to the spring;
Her steps were very feeble, and her form
was spare and bent,
But her daughter was loving one, and help
ed her as she went.
This good old woman wore veil--a thick
ly folded veil
As if she still were anxious her complexion
ehouldn't fail;
For female Vanity remains when Bcauty's
charms are past,
And, like her gift of speech, endures unto
the very last.
A soldier passing in the road the good old
woman spied,
And wondered at the kindness of the daugh-
ter by her side,
eSure never love like this was seen or told
in any tale
And then, twas very strange, the old one
bore the pail.
The soldier was inquisitivc-hc had right
to be
And cooked his pistol and his eye, that bet
ter he might see;
And he was soon rewarded, and richly, too,
guess,
For he saw pair of high old boots beneath
the old ones dress.
A death-like silence then ensued-the sold
one'' stood stock still,
Because she was not quite prepared to AXE
leaden pill.
The soldier did not ''drop a tear" but he
dropped, instead, his hand
Upon the sold ones shoulder, and said,
jeff Davis stand -
"You have played out, JEFF. Davis. Not one
step or you die!''
Your GOccrnment has gone up, and yOu'H go
by-and-by,
No single word of pity shall e,er be breath
ed for you;
The apple tree and The Devil, they both
shall have their due ~

sTRoUDsBURG, MONROE COUNTY, PA AUGUST II,

But what said Chicago, when it awoke
in the morning? Let one of its own or
gans answer:
GA shiver of genuine horror passed O.
yer Chicago yesterday. Thousands oi
citizens, who awoke to the peril hanging
over their property and their heads in
the form of a stupendous foray upon the
city from Camp Douglas, led BY rebel Of
fcers in disguise and rebel guerrillas
without disguise, and concocted by home
Copperheads, whose houses had been'con-
verted into rebel arsenals, were appalled,
as though an earthquake had opened at
their feet. Who can picture the
letting loose of 5000 rebel prisoners upon
a sleeping city, all unconscious of the
coming avalanche !? With arms and am
munitlon stored at convenient locations,
with confederates distributed here and
there, ready for the signal of confagra-
ton, the horrors of the scene could
scarcely be paralleled in savage history
One hour of such catastrophe would de-
strcy the creations of a century, and ex-
pose the homes Of nearly 100000 souls
to every conceivable form of destruction"
Tribune, Nov. Sth, 1861
But the men Of Chicago not only talk
ed, they acted. They went to the polls
and voted for the Union and so told the
world what honest Illinois thought of
treason.
More arrests were made, more arms
taken, but the great blow was struck and
the work over. It's head gone, the Con-
spiracY was dead. and it only remained
to lay out its lifeless trunk for the burial.
Yet, even as it lay in death, men shud-
dered to look on the hideous thing out of
which had gone SO many devils.

A f,anifal Rath

An open widow with the direct rays of
the sun coming in, will be good for the
little one. On hot summer day, to Law
it down near the window, quite nude, and
let it lie for some minutes where the rays
of the sun may fall on its skin, will give
1T new life. There is new vital relation
between sunshine and vigorous human
being. Seclusion from sunshine is one
OF the greatest misfortunes of civilized
life. 1ils same cause which makes po-
tato vlnesswhite and sickly when grown
in dark cellars operates to produce the
pale, sickly girls that are reared in our
parlors. Expose either to the direct rays
of the sun, and they 5 gin to show
color. health and strength. When in
Lincoln, some years ago, visited an
establishment which had acquired wide
reputation for the cure of those diseases
In which prostration and nervous derange-
ment were prominent symptoms.
L soon found the success in the use
made of sunshine. The salt roof had
been removed and glass one substituted.
The upper story was divided into sixteen
small rooms, each provided with lounges,
washing apparatus, etc. The patient, on
entering each his little apartment, remov-.
ed all his clothing and exposed himself
to the direct rays of the sun. Lying on
the lounge and turning over from time
to time, each and every part Of his body
was thus exposed to the life giving rays
of the sun.
Several London physician candidly con-
fessed to me that many cases which
seemed only for the shroud were galvan-
inzed into life and health by this process.

We desire to call the attention of our
readers to the following prevalent mis-
takes:
1t is mistake to suppose that the sub
scription price of a newspaper is clear
gain to the..publisher.
1t is mistake to suppose that he gets
his white paper for nothing.
1t is mistake to suppose it is printed
without cost.
1t is mistake to suppose, that he. can
live bodily by faith.
1t is a mistake to suppose that it is an
easy thing to please everybody.
1t is a mistake to suppose that paper
is not worth buying which contains only
what we know and believe already.
1t is mistake to suppose that money
due for paper would be as good to us a

1t is mistake to believe that We would
not be thankful for what is due for sub

The sagacity of the canine species has
often been a subject of admiration, and
inrumerabEe instances have been record
ed where human life has been preserved
by the noble animal. An illustration of
this occurred few days ago near New
port, Perry county, Pennsylvania. A
party Of ladies were gathering whortleber-
ries. One of the ladies had child with
her, which she seated on fat stone near
where.she. was picking berries. Shortly
after deg, which accompanied the party
set UP loud barking around the child

The child was taken away and the stone

Philadelphia Press, charges that an Or
ganized conspiracy is on foot to repudi-

some of the most prominent leaders of
the Northern Democracy are now actual
ly working to bring about this end
Their plan is to get a sufficient number
of Representatives into Congress from the
late Rebel States, to form working ma
jority in both houses, when the ball will
be opened. 1t becomes our cities whose
saving are invested in Government bonds,
to see that this gigantic conspiracy is

Men work for it, fight for it, beg for it, steal
for it, starve for it, lie for it, and die for it.
And all the while, from the cradle to the
grave. Nature and God are laundering in
our ears, the solemn question-"what shall
it profit man, if he gains the whole world
and lose his own soul % This mad
ness for money is the strongest and lowest
of the passions it is the insatiate Moloch
of the human heart, before whose remorseless
alter all the finer attributes of humanity are
sacrificed. 1t makes merchandise Of all that
is sacred in human affections and even traf-
