mass of political corruption and trea-
son, and copperheads with forked tongues
and stink as of carrion, rose from the
press, and the people held their noses,
and the Johns cried with loud voice,
Come and see;
81. And Bob Ingersoll raised the cur
tain from the form of Pendleton, which
is Burr, and behold on his brain were
two negro babies, his breast was of iron,
his thigh and legs were clay, his feet clo-
ven, and his toes were copperheads.
88. And Bob cried with loud voice,
Come and see. And the people cried
with one voice, Away with such men

1 SO. And the Johns raised the cover
ing from Fernando Wood, which is Ben
edict Arnold, and he had ten heads,
which were copperheads, his conscience
was scared as with a hot iron, and he
was given over to reprobacy of mind and
a hardness of heart that he might be-
lieve lie, that he might be damned,
because he held the truth in unrig ighteous-
ness.
90. His face was also brass, and his
hydra-heads had forked tongues like
unto serpents, and on each head he had
horn that was called Dilemma, and
around each horn was wound huge rat
tlesnake and on the top flag with stars
and bars
81. And the Johns and Bob spake
unto the people in a loud voice, saying,
Come, come and see.
90. And the people answered and said
1t is revealed in the Scriptures that the
seed of the woman shall bruise the SER
pents head, and they stamped the cop
perheads with their heels.
90. And the army of the Lord in the
South thrust through and through the
rattlesnakes of Dixie, and the peace
sneak serpents died suddenly without
remedy, =
"a. And the remnant of the army of
the Lord rejoiced, saying, 1t is finished!
1t is finished! Since Judas and Arnold
and Burr and Vallandigham and Pendle-
ton are laid low no feller has come up in
the rear against us.
95. And the soldiers did spit upon the
dead carcasses Of the copperheads in the
North, and bruised the heads of the rat
tlesnakes in the South, and rested from
their hard fighting.
96. And they took unto themselves
wives Of the daughters of Abraham, and
made and preserved a Union.
g.. And the Lord blessed Abraham
and cursed Vallandigham, and placed a
mark on him that be should deceive this
nation no more for thousand years.
After that he will be loosed little sea-
son.
90. Moreover, the Lord said unto
Abraham, [ have driven the rebels into
their last ditch at Richmond and at
Charleston,
w. And l Will give unto Grant pow

Richmond and Charleston shall surely
fall, and great will be the fail thereof

swords into ploughshares and their spears
into pruning-hooks, and know internal

How THE DEVIL Losr. The follow
ing is to good to be lost:
A young man, who ardently desired
wealth, was visited by his Satanic Maj
esty, who tempted him to promise his
soul for eternity if he could be supplied
on this earth with all the money he could
use. The bargain was concluded the
devil was to supply the money, and was
at last to have the soul, unless the young
man had more money than the devil
could furnish. Years passed away; the
man married, was extravagant, built
palaces, speculated widely, lost and gave
away fortunes, and yet his Golfers were
always full. He turned politician, and
bribed his way to power and fame, with
out reducing his "pile' of gold. He be
came flibustcr, and fitted out ships
and armies, but his banker honored all
his drafts. He went to ST. Paul to live
and paid the usual rates of interest on
all the money he could borrow but
though the devil made wry faces when
he came to pay the bills, yet they were
paid. One expedient after another fail
ed the devil counted the time two years
that he must wait for the soul, and
Knocked the efforts Of the despairing man.
One more trial was resolvep upon, he
started newspaper The devil growl-
ed at the bill at the end of the first
quarter, was savage in six months, mel
ancholly in nine, and broke '.dead broke"
at the end of the year. So the news
paper went down, but the soul was
saved.

CHRONICLES OF THE WAR
-WITH-
JEFF, THE KING OF DIXIE
BY THE MENAND COUNTY BLACKSMITH.

Two rs Chronicles, one 1 Chapter, Cross Verse.
10. And it came to pass in the days
of Abraham, of the house of Lincoln, the
ruler of the Puritans, the people of God,
IL. That one Jefferson, whose sur
name is Davis, TIE high priest of Beelze-
bub, the ruler of Tartarus made war on
the people of God in the land of Dixie,
wherein are raised turpentine, treason
and cotton.
70. And Jeff raised seven thousand
of his brave men. and hailed iron, lead,
and fire on Fort Sumpter, in the com
mand of one Robert, whose surname is
Anderson, and seventy veteran Puritans.
13. And Jeff ceased not, day and
night to opprcss the army of the Lord,
insomuch that Robert surrendered the
fort, and lowered the flag of his people.
IA. And Jeff made great banquet,
and his wives and his concubines drank
wine in the vessels made of gold stolen
from the treasury by Floyd, under Old
Buck, the bachelor
Is Moreover, his seven thousand
soldiers rejoiced with great JOY, and cried
with loud voice for the space Of three
days, Great is King Cotton, who hath
delivered our enemies, the Black Aboli-
tionists, into our hands. and blessed be
his father and mother, Sambo and Dinah,
who reared our King
l6 And it came to pass, when Abra,
ham heard the rejoicing, he called Sew
ard the counsellor. and said. what mean
eth this rejoicing?
H. And Seward the counsellor an
swered and said unto him, Live forever,
Father Abraham; the Philistines be
upon US.
Is. And Abraham wept, and covered
himself with sackcloth and ashes, and
prayed nightly to God
10. And the Lord answered and said
unto him, Fear not, Abraham, for |
have raised thee up to deliver my peo-
pie.
20. Issue thy proclamation, and call
out seventy and FIVE thousand men; per-
adventure jeff will repent.
q. And Abraham hearkened unto
the Lord. Selah
%. And jeff hardened his heart,
and stiffened his neck, and boasted and
said, What do these Yankees? One of
US can whip ten Abolitionists, and ten
of the chivalry can put thousand Yam
KEGS to flight.
%. And it repented the Lord that
he had made JEFF, of the house of Davis.
"a And the Lord said unto Abra-
ham, Issue thy proclamation, and call
out three hundred thousand men, and I
will punish Jeff for his sins, wherein he
hath sinned against heaven.
25. And Abraham hearkened unto
the Lord. Selah
26. And the Philistines pitched bat
tie against the Puritans ct Bull Run
and Jeff slew the army of Abraham
twenty and two thousand,
81. And discounted the army of the
Lord, and took forty and four thousand
prisoners. and wagons not few !; and
routed the army of Abraham.
%. And Abraham wept bitterly,
and prayed mightily to God, and said
Surely, o, Lord God, thou hast forsaken
thy servant, Abraham, and destroyed
even thy people.
20. And the Lord answered Abra-
ham and said, Fear not, my servant, for
l have raised thee up to deliver my peo-
pie,
80. And I will punish the arrogance
of JEFF, and the naughty shall be laid
low
81. Issue thy proclamation again,

ished after narrowing, which mu:t
often be done if sown broadcast,
when the land is too wet, or perhaps
must be delayed until the grain has
sprouted. The seed is also deposited
an regular depth by the drill, and
is thought to stand the winter better
tnan when sown broadcast and cover
ed with the harrow. But the great
est advantage to be gained by drill
ing seems to be entirely overlooked
by the farmers of this country. In
England and Scotland drilling is on
ly resorted to on account of the in
creased facility it affords for hoesng
the crop, and not with any idea that
it increases the yield unless it is hoed.
A series of experiments made in Scot
land, in the vicinity of Edinburgh, to
test the relative advantages of drill
and broadcast sowing, pretty con-
clusively established the fact that
whenever the drilled wheat was no.
ed, the yield was greater than the
broadcast, mot hoed.) But when
the drilled was greater than the
broadcast, mot hoed.) But when the
drilled was not cultivated, the supe-
riority was on the side of the broad
cast, thus showing conclusivly that
the increased yield of the drilled
wheat was attributable to the hoeing
and not to its being drilled.
All things being equal, l incline to
the opinion that broadcast generally
succeeds better than drilled wheat.
In drilling, the grain is closely de-
posted in narroM rows to allow the
roots sufficiedt space to grow with
out interfering with each other ;
much of the grass seed is also washed
into the drills by rains, so that we
often have both grass and grain
growing in narrow rows, much to the
detriment of each other.
From the above remarks | do not
wish to be understood as condemn
ing the use of the drill, although /
must acknowledge that l have lost
much of the high appreciation l once
had for it. My object has been to
draw the attention of the Club more
particularly to the subject. 1t is
one of much Importance, ard can be
solved only by a close observation
anb actual experiment.
