They may be packed in the Same

Poultry Yard" says: take eight
quarts of unslacked lime, ono-halI
pouod common salt, two ounces Of
cream tartar, mix in wator so as to
bear up an egg, with its shell just
above the surface, pour the mix

eggs (packed small end down) and
they will keep sound and good for
two years."

PnErrr Coon FOR A WHITE PREsIDENr.-We
hope that those radical editors who recently
declared that President johnson was Inferior
in intellectual capacity to o negro will have
the grace 10 admit that his veto message Is
pretty good for white President They CON-
planned that they could find In his utterances
neither sense, logic nor cohcrency; but they
can discover all these and great deal more
besides In this admirable State paper. Clear,
concise and emphatic in Its style, digniaed and
judicial in i,s manner, irrefatably strong In Its
facts, utterly imprognable in It's arguments, and
equally sound, convincing and constitutional
in liz conclusions, this veto message will take
rank with the very ablcst efforts Of the most
accomplished minds, both as literary produc-
ton and as q thorough exposition Of vital topics
Of craftsmanship. Itexpresses In few columns
the views Of the entire country In regard 10 the
great question Of reconstruction and the proper
disposition Of the freedmen. Perhaps the radi
Gals will think that Fred Douglass, lone OF our
foremost citisens," ~ Chase calls him, OF
Downing, who Ia q colersd man Of very posi-
tive opinions, especially about oysters, could
have written better veto; but still they mus
candidly acknowledge that, on the whole, they
have been rather mistaken about Andrew
johnson, and that his message Is pretty good

THE CONNECTICUT ELECTION AND THE vET0
MEssAGR--The republicans Of Connecticut, at
their late State Convention, took hold OF both
horns Of their dilemma by endorsing both
President Johnson and the radicals in Con-
press But now the issue Is changed. The
President has boldly confronted the radicals
and mslcontents In his veto message, and the
republicans Of Connecticut must shape their
course accordingly. They must either sustain
the President or side against him. They can
not ride two horses In the coming election.
They must 20 the whole figure for the Presi-
dent or they must 60 the whole figure against
him. What they have now 70 do is to have
another convention, or . fresh oonvocation OF
the old one. Then they will have chance TO
show their hands, which they seemed eager TO
do at the last convention, 10 favor Of the fear
less and sensible policy Of tho President AZ
