Meeting Of tho HocIting valley iiSrii-

Society met pursuant to adjourn
mcnt. DR.. Dennis was called to the
Chair in consequence Of the absence
Of tho Vice President.
Minutes Of the provious meeting
were read and approved.
No other business before the Socic-
ty, the subject for discussion was at
onco taken up, Mr.. Boviug giving his
experience with different kinds of
strawberries y mentioning specially
Trompbc de Gand, which he had never
succeeded in inducing to bear fruit to
any cxtont.
Mr.. Stalter mado the same report
of tho Tromphe dc Gand, though the
fruit borno was of that quality that
he did not feel like giving up the
ship, but proposed experimenting
with different kinds Of soil. This va
riety must be kept froo Of rurners.-
This course, however, is pursued by
Mr.. Knox with all. '',.@7i 's
Mr.. Gravitt thought the failures
with Tromphe dc Gand consequent
on the nature of our soils and recon-
mended Wilson's Albany. In propa-
eating, caro- should bo taken TO So

This table shows US that under the
census of 1860, with the ratio of one
Representative in Congress to 124,lS3
persons, the slave States had repre-
sontation in that body of nineteen
mcmbers derived from threo-ffths Of
their slaves. That which they held
as property, that to which they denied
citizenship, gave them undor the Con-
stitution, the advantage over the FREQ
population of the North of nineteen
membersl We did not complain Of
this as it was one of the "com-
promises of the Constitutions" but
now when slavery is abolished
and tho great question of reconstruc-
ton is before the country, it is we'll to
keep in mind this property power
which the South had possessed from
the foundation of the Government,
equal to tho whole political powor in
the House of the great State ofOhio.--
The total of throe.fifths of the slaves
of 2,37O,339 divided by 124,ls3, the
representative number, gives nineteen
mombers as above stated.
We also SEQ from the last column OF
this tablo the total Of tho two.ffths of
the slaves that have not been added to
tho representative population, but
which will be after the abolition OF
slavery. This total is 1878, ,l72, which
divided by l24, 1888 gives l3 as tho ad-
dition to tho representative power OF

gress

Of the South, in addition to tho abso'

ed over tho poor whites, will have the
advantage over the North, of thirty
two members of Congress, which these
freedmen will give them.
The free population OF the North
except negroes, carry votes to the bal
lot as well as members to the represen
tativo population. In respect to the

FREE Dom As AFFECTING THE RE-
LATIVE P0wER OF THE NORTH
AND TRE SOUTH.
To show how tho war, IN freeing the
slaves, will increase tho political power
of the dominant class Of tho South at
the expense of the North, unless the
freedman shall be enfranchised, we
have constructed the following tables.
Tho fret table includes all tho States
in which slavery prevailed before the
war, with the number of free negroes,
tho total of slaves, the proportion re.
presented by adding "three-fifths ofall
other persons" and tho number Of
slaves not represented before the war
but who will, under the abolition ol
that institution, be added to The repro.
sentative population, the same as all
| free persons. ~tF r

The total hero of 225,764 free ne
groes in the North is 25, 024 less than

South before tho wapleo that in respect
10 tho practical powor derived from
this class, the slavo<States had tho ad.
vantage.
The number of whites in tho two
sections in 1860 was as follows: a

This population would givo the
North 152, and the South 81 members.
This would have been the first propo-
stion had slavery continued, though
had not tho South rebelled they would
have continued to enjoy tho advantage
of the compromises Of the Constitu'
tion," and no objection would have
been made by the North.
But under tho abolition Of slavery
the South gains ain accession of IL
members, rs shown above; so that in
stead of the fair proportion OF 81 mem
bers, that section will have for voting
population OF S,039,278, representa-
ton OF 80 members, l20 per cent
more voting people in the North viii
have but l52 mombors, or 52 per cent
more than the South. Under freedom
therefore, without the eniranchisemen
OF tho ireedmeo, three voters Of thu
South will be equal 10 soven at th'
North Then, when it 10 considered
that tho old aristocrats of tho South
possess almost unlimited power owe
: tho poor whites, it will bo at once por

will be made under freedom to all an'
votes only to a portion. This is OF

How | love to hear those COW bells,
After | have gone to bed,
When upon my welcome pillow,
l have laid my weary head.
., how sweet the dingle dongle,
AS COWS chase each other round =;
Or meath my window crop the clover,
Keeping up their jingling sound.
Last night two generous COWS persisted,
To sercnadc my soothing rest,
So very kind my distant nei ghbors,
They would not favor at request.
But would have me lay aud listen,
How each could ring her Ginning bell
One was base, the other tenor,
And they harmonizod so well.
Long I laid and list the music,
Till no more of it could crave,
And wondered if their owners,
kuew the pleasure those bells gave.
Wondered if they knew their COW bells,
Were ringing in some slumberers ear,
All the long hours Of the long night,
Some one would their music hear.
| could never be so generous,
As the owners Of those bells;
We're | possessed ofsuch sweet music,
Exclusive Ia enjoy its Swclls.
I'd not even have then jingled,
From shades of night to break of day,
Where some weak exhausted sufferer,
Was wearing with disease away.
And much less should they go round
town,
Lowing, jingling here and there,
Waking people from their slumbers,
To 5tc55 their owners with a prayer.
Yet il | did contribution,
Me, | would have my friends endow,
Bnd with the money l would straightway
Buy q pasture for my COW.
