Niblack'S Platform.

On the 18th of June resolution
was introduced into the House of
Representatives, which was as follows:
WHEREAS, (lst,) 1t is notorious that JEFF
ferson Davis was the leader of the late
rebellion, and is guilty of treason under
the laws of the United States; AND
WHEREAS, (2nd,) By the Proclamation of
the President of May, 1865, the said Davis
was charged with completely in the assas-
sination of President Lincoln, and said
Proclamation has not been revoked nor
annulled; therefore, 1ufbE3W
Be ii ResoEued, AS the opinion of the
House Representative, (3rd,) That said
Davis should be held in custody as
prisoner, and (4th,) subjected to trial
according to the laws of the land,
Upon these plain propositions to
which it would be supposed every
loyal man would heartily give his
ready approval, we find Mr.. NIBLAcK,
our Representative in Congress,
voting in the negative. Only ten
others from the whole North could
be found base enough to keep him
company, and not a single Democrat
from this State.
Here we find Mr. .NIBLAoK voting:

ySIGNs THAT FAILED.-We all remember
the story of the innkeeper who became proud
as he prospered, and taking down his sign
of the Ass, put up portrait of George w
in its place, His neighbor Immediately
raised the cast-of efigy, and " in this sign
he conquered" The first landlord, alarmed at
the increasing popularity of his rival, and un-
derstanding the cause, wrote underneath the
grim visage of his majesty, "This is the real
ASS" But more ludicrous incident of the
kind is just now told at the expense of the
good Bishop of Llandaf He took up his
abode near the head of Lake Windermere,
where the principal inn had been known as
theCock; but the landlord, by way of com.
pliment to his distinguished neighbor, sub
stituted the Bishop as the new sign. An
innkeeper close by, who had frequently en-
wed mine host of the Cock for his good for
tune in securing considerable preponderr
ance Of visitors, took advantage Of the change,
and attracted many travellers to his house by
putting up the sign of the Cock, The landr
lord with the new sign was much discounted
at seeing many of his old customers depos-
tied at his rivals establishment; so, by way
of remedy, he put up, in large, red letters,
under the portrait of the Bishop, "This is
the old Cock"

AaRICULTUREIN0 Our COMMON SCHOOLS.
This is a matter of some Importance in view
of the future of agriculture in our country.
Some years ago the plan of instructing the
children of the rural population in the ele>
ments Of agricultural science, while attend
ing the district schools, was introduced. A
text-book-explaining in concise and lu-
cid manner the natufe of the plants the farm>
er cultivates, the animals he raises, the char
acter of the soil he cultivates, the processes
by'which its fertility can be maintained, the
action Of light, heat, etc, upon both animal
and vegetable life, and intending by its study
to lay the foundation for higher agricultu-
raj knowledge as the pupil advanced in age,
and his circumstances would allow of its pros
ecutioh-was prepared under the auspices OF
the Massachusetts, State Board of Agricul>
ture We do not know with what success
the attempt has been attended, but are sat>
isfed that the principle is right one, and
one that may be adopted in the West with
profit to the rising and future generations.
1t is not Of one half the importance for the
farmers boy to know the capitals Of all the
empires, kingdoms, considerations, or states
of the old world, and to have at his tongues
end the names of all the rivers-where they
take their rise, and where they empty-as i
is to know the way TO make barren soil
productive, or to be able to prevent the fail
are Of crop, to save a valuable fruit from
blight or insects, or know how much seed is
needed per acre, andwhen and how to plant
it. As preparatory to entering the sgrical-
raj colleges, the influence of such primary
education would also be invaluable. The
seeds thus sown in the district school might
lead to great prominence and usefulness in
the recipient. As the management Of these
schools is principally in the hands of farmers
it will be an easy matter for them to make
the trial of introducing some textbook Of
the kind we indicate into them during the
coming winter rm.-Prairie Former.

about 600 changed hands, and the balance
were left over AMI shipped cast, AS gen
efal thing the cattle IN point Of quality did
not reach the usual standard, being mostly

commoncr grade, sold slowly and only at
very low figures. We give At to S cents.

sFia.St

Believing that the soldiers who enlisted
early in the war, who first sprang to arms

Agent for the collection Of Military Claims,
offers his services, and with the assistance
Of the soldiers themselves, will undertake
to secure it. He accordingly invites all

ofabIy discharged theretrom, receiving only
500 or less, bounty, no matter what the
cause Of discharge or length time served
to forward their discharge papers to him

fort may be made to secure what would
seem to be SO justly due. Upon receiving
the discharges, receipts for them will be
promptly returned, accompanied by the
necessary papers in each particular case,
with full information.
This is matter that mast receive imn.e-
diate attention, for, unless it is attended to
