Thugs Farmers hould not DO.

A Farmer should never depend too
much on his neighbors for what he
can by careful management produce
on his own land. He should not
make it common practice to either
buy or beg fruit while he can plant
trees and cultivate them on his own
ground-nor annoy his ncighbors by
borrowing tools to work with, while
he can make or buy them. "The
borrower is servant to the lender"
A Farmer should never he so i'm
mersed in political matters as TO neg
lect doing his various kinds OF work
in due season, and to snug up mat
ters and things for winter; nor
should he be so inattentive to politics
as remain ignorant Of those great
questions of national and state poll.
cy which will always agitate more or
less free people.
A Farmer should not be continual
ly borrowing his neighbours newspa.
paper, while he can easily save mon
ey enough, by curtailing some little
extravaganza, to subscribe and pay
for one or more of his own.
A Farmer should never refuse n
fair price for anything he wishes to
sell. have known men to refuse a
dollar and half for bushcl of corn,
and after keeping it five or six months
they were glad to get dollar for it.
/ have known farmers to refuse to
take fair marketable price for their
dairies Of butter, and after keeping
1t three or four months they conclud-
ed to sell the butter for only two.
thirds of the price offered. "a bird
in the hand is worth two in the bush"
A Farmer should not allow his
woodpile to be reduced down to the
. "shorts," merely drawing a little 10y
piecemeal, and green at that. He
must expect to encounter the sour
looks of his wife and family, and per.
haps be compelled (in series of lee
lures to learn that the man who pro-
vides green wood to burn in the win.
ter, has not measured the first rules
of domestic economy. Nor should
he employ some "botch" mason to
build his chimney upside down" so
that his family should be nearly smok.
ed out Of the house, and the walls of
the room become as yellow as saf.
from.
A Farmer should not let his bmll.
ings look as old as the hills, and go to
decay, while he can easily afford the
means to keep them in good repair,
nor should he allow tattcrcd clothes
and old hats to be stuffed in the win
dows, in place of glass. II he does,
he need not be alarmed if he acquires
the reputation of a mean man, or one
who tarres long where liquor is sold
by the glass.
A Farmer should not be contented
with dilapidated looking fences on
his farm, so as to attempt his cattle
to become unruly and destroy his
crops, while he has plenty of oppor-
tunities and materials to make or
keep them in repair.

Important To Wool Growers.


Itmay not be out Of place to give q
word of advice to farmers, now that
the clip is near approaching, about
the manner Of washing their sheep
and doing up their wool. They must
understand that there is now 10 tue
Eastern market much closer inspec
tion of the wool than has been for
some years past: that half washed
and untagged wool, with heavy
strings, viii not sell for IL same price
as well washed wool, but will be sub.
ject to discount in proportion to the
amount of dirt which they contain.
and they must bear in mind that dirty
wool will not command as ready
sale as clean wool; and those local
tiles which become notorious for
heavy wool will be avoided, and rs this
class OF wool is sold In the Eastern
market, so it must he bought OF the
farmer. Some are of the opinion that
if the wool is not washed at all this
difficulty might he ohviated, but they
must bear in mind that there are diff
ferent degrees of cleanness in un.
washed wool as well as washed wool;
some farmers would take care to keep
their wool clean, some would allow
them to accumulate all the dirt they |
could. The best way for all is to put
their wool upon the market in the
best possible manner; then they will
have a ready market and command
the best price.

FROM WASHINGTON.


Gen. Sheridan En- this Kew Orleans Rsos.
NEw YosK, Aug. rs.
special from Washington:
Gen Sheridan in his reply to the Presi-
dents call for information concerning the
New Orleans riot, after detailing the &C,
counts of the riot, concludes ~ follows.
1.-THE immediate cause of the terrible affair
was the assemblage OF the Convention. The
remote 1eause was the bitter and antagonistic
feehn&Swhich has been growing in this com
mnity since the advent of the present Mayor,
who hthe organization of his police force
selected many desperate men, and some Of
them known mnrderefs. People Of clear
views wereover awed by want of confidence
in the Mayor and from fear Of the Thugs,
many of whom he had selected for the police
force. have been frequently applied TO by
prominent citizens on the subject, and have
heard them express fear and want Of conf
dence in Mayor Monroe, ever since the in
timation of this last Convention. must
condemn the course Of several city papers for
supporting, by articles, the bitter feeling as
to the merciless manner in which the Con
vention was broken up, Ifeel obliged to
confess strong repugnanae. 1t is useless to
ettCtuk3 W utssutcG the ifustiAty huuh cAtbtS
on the part of great many here towards
Northern men, and this unfortunate affair 90
precipitated matters that there is now a
test of what shall be the status Of Northern
men, whether they can live here without
being in constant dread Or not; whether they
can be protected in life and property, and
have Justice in the courts. II the matter is
permitted to pass over without q thorough
and determined prosecution Of those engaged
in it, we may look out fot frequent scenes OF
this kind, not only here but in other places.
No steps have as yet been taken by the civil
authorities to ar rest citizens who were enga-
ged in this massacre, or policemen who per.
petrated such crueltes Members Of the
Convention have been indicted BY the
Grand Jury, and many Of them arrested and
held to bail. As to whether the civil author-
tiles can mete out ample justice to the guilty
parties on both sides. | must say it is nv
opinion that they cannot. Judge Abel, whose
course l have closely watched for near a
year. consider one of the most dangerous
men that we have here to the peace and quiet
of the city The leading men of the Conven-
ton, King, Cutler, Hahn and others, have
been political agitators and are bad men.
regret to say that the course of Governor
Wells has been vacilIsting, and during the
late trouble he has shown very little of the
man.
