ON motion to adopt the report Of the
committee and resolution to send to
Grant county to take testimony in be-
half Of the sitting members in the
Grant county contest,
Mr. HELM said that this was an appli-
cation on the part of the sitting members
from Grant county to send to that county
for papers and persons by which to sus-
tain themselves in their seats upon the
floor Of the House; that this was an effort
made for the purpose of delay; an effort
to perpctuatc them in position which,
in his judgment, they would hold by off.

their seats would be contested and the

but that notice having been given the sit
ting members, they should have come
here prepared to make good their claims

said that the Grant county case was not

by anything on record. He demanded Of

4 ST. PAUL LADY ACCIDENTALLY
KILLED BY HER HUsBAND.-A Hawkes.,
of st. Paul, Mimi, accidentally killed
his wife on the morning of August 2lst
After breakfast they retired to their room,
when Mr.. Hawkes. took out one of two
pistols which he had possessed, and began
to clean and oil It, his wife, in the mean
time sitting in a rocking chair engaged in
sewing. One of the servants of the house
was in and out of the room during the
time, and having adjusted the furniture,
she had returned with pitcher of water,
and was standing in the corner, few feet
from the chair occupied by Mrs. H.,
when she heard the report of the pistol, and
looking round, saw the lady leap from
her seat, exclaiming, "Oh! my God p
and then dropped upon the carpet at her
husbands feet, weltering in her life blood
and expired. The husband, when he re-
allied the terrible calamity that had be-
fallen him, was overcome with grief and
anguish, and in the midst of his unutter-
able woe, nearly lost his reason, and he
could with difficulty be restrained from
adding suicide to the fearful drama
4 corornor's jury returned verdict that
the death Of Mrs. Hawkes. resulted accid-
entally, from the discharge of a pistol in
the hands of NJ. a. Hawkes., and that no
blame can be attached to him in the mat

which the pistol was held.

WORTH REMEMBERING. -"Cosmo," !"
in the Philadelphia Saturday Evening
Post, gives the following facts worth re-
membering
1t is worth while for all farmers every.
where to remember, at all times, that q
thorough culture is better than three
mortgages on their farm.
That an offensive war against weeds is
FIVE times less expensive than defensive
That good fences always pays better
than lawsuits with neighbors.
That hay is a good deal cheaper made
in the summer, than purchased in the
winter.
That horse who lays his ears back,
and looks lightning when any one ap.
proaches him, is vicious. Dou't buy him
That scrimping the feed of fatting hogs
is a waste of grain.
That over fed fowls wont lay eggs.
That educating children is money lent
at one hundred per cent
That one evening spent at home in
study is more profitable than ten lounged
about country tayerns.
That COWS should always be milked
regular and clean.
That it is the duty of every man tc
take the county paper, and pay for il
promptly.

SURGERY1N CENTRAL AMERICA. DR.
Charles Dorat, an English surgeon, resid-
ing at Santa Anna, State of Salvador Cen
trail America, has witnessed novel su-
ture. He writes toa friend in England
as follows ''I viii mention a curious case
of native surgery / witnessed short time
ago. The patient had received serious
stab in the abdomen, from which protrud-
ed about half yard Of intestines aud
portion of omentum, the latter having a
longitudinal slit about three inches long.
On my arrival / found that an Indian
medico bad sewed up the wounded gut
with the nippers Of a large ant. The in
sect, which is said to be very savage, was
taken by the body and its head presented
to the united lips of the wound, which it
bit and held fast The operator, then, by
a pinch of the fingers, killed the ant,
leaving the head fixed to the gut. An
other and another ant thus applied, to the
number of dozen or fifteen, effected this
singular suture The gut was then re-
placed, and no inflammation ensuing, the
man recovered speedily. This curious
practice is said to be usual in this part of
Central America"

ANEcDoTE OF ADMIRAL FARRAGUT.
When Admiral Farragut was ten years
of age, his father, then an officer of rank
in the United States Navy, and high in
the estimation of the Government, said
in his sons hearing that when he (the
boy) was old enough to make compact
and keep it, he had bargain to offer
him. The son rose up and asked his
father to state the terms of the compact
The Admiral said:
"The proposal that I intend to make
is this IF you will not smoke nor chew
tobacco, drink intoxicating drinks nol
strong wines, till you are 21 years of age
l will then give you 81 ,000." 10y
81 am old enough to make that tbargaiu
now," said young Farragut, 81 will accept
the offer" .rr -
The bargain was closed. And on the
attainment of young Farragut's majority
the cash was handed over.

E=+#
The Goshen [Ihd-J Democrat has the
following account Of a recent breach Of
promise suit in that State
"Miss Ann Piper some time since COM
menced suit against Samuel w. Haven
for 900 damages, for breach of prom
ise of marriage, in the Kosciusko county
circuit court A change, Of venue was ta-
ken to the Allen circuit court, and the
case was determined last week by giving
the plaintiff $500. The facts appear
az follows: ~The defendant, at the COM
mencement Of the rebellion, was paying
his addresses to the plaintiff, and par
.jal engagement Of marriage was made,
and during the three years he was in the
army they corresponded. In the mean
time his mother became insane and was
sent to the asylum at Indianapolis. On
his being mustered out Of the service his
mother was brought home and consider
ed incurable. At times she was SO that
she can get about and attend to domestic
affairs, then she will be worse, and at
such times will permit no woman to be
around the house, and when her son, the
defendent, employs girl to assist her,
she drives her off. He appears to be the
only one who can manage or do anything
with her, lie told the plaintiff his stu
alton and agreed to marry her as soon as
his mother died or recovered; that no
woman could live with his mother in her
present condition, and that he considered
it his duty to take care Of his mother, and
strive to pacify her as long as she lived,
and this he could not do if he married.
The plaintiff is highly esteemed and con-
sidered an excellent young lady; she is 2
sister to William g. Piper, Recorder Of
Kosciusko county. The defendant is a
young man of excellent moral character,
and is worth $4,000 or $4,000. He
says he loved her and would have mar
ried her as soon as his mother died or got
better This statement was made to open
court

INTERESTING TO FARMERs.-A few
days since, says the Stockton Herald, q
countryman came in town with sick OK,
that he could do nothing with, and said it
would die with swelling up, that num-
Der of cattle have so generally died of in
this country. The countryman was COM
planning of his bad luckin Mr.. Tinkham's s
butcher shop, On Main street, when Tink-
ham stepped out where the OK was with a
butcher knife, some four inches long,
which he stuck full lenght in the paunch
of the OK. The OK Immediately jumped
up, the wind making whistling noise as
it came out of the wound. The following
morning, the OK went to work in the team
as usual. The wound was made on the
left side, near the point of the hip and
short rib and as near the rib as possible.
No evil effects arise from wound being
there made, although at times manure
has come out with the wind. 1t is the
belief of some that such wound must be
made with small pen knife, so small
that it is necessary to put quill in the
orifce to keep it open to let out the air ;
but no such care need be taken, as a
wound sufficiently large to allow the air to
escape with the use OF quill is by no
means dangerous. A general knowledge
of this fact, will save stock owners IN this
country several thousand dollars annually.

A SPUNKY SoLDIER.--A story is told
of Prussian sentinel stationed on the
steeple at Troppau, and left behind there
when his company retreated. The citi.
zens attempted to take him prisoner, but
the Prussian easily defended with his
bayonet the narrow winding stair by
which alone access could be gained to the
steeple. They then decided on reducing
him by famine, but the Prussian having
with him good supply Of cartridges
announced that unless he was regularly
and well fed, he would shoot every one
who passed in the streets around the
church. The good soldier. thus contriyed
to maintain his position for two days,
when Troppau was re-occupied by the
Prussians and he was relieved.

JUMPING INTO MATRTMoNY-Af fell
low who evidently don't dislike "tilters"
says: Speaking of g filters" reminds us of
a story of certain famous Massachusetts,
judge. Once upon time as he rode up
to the door of country inn, he saw the
landlady's daughter jump over the fence.
'Do that again, Sallie, and I'll marry
you" The Judge was as good as his
word, a year from that day married the
light heeled Sallie. He was doubtless a
good judge of ankles. But there were no
.'tilters" in those days.

NEGRO CIVILIZATIoN.-Tot those who
clamor for negro fellowship, and the ele-
walton Of the race, we commend the fol-
lowing from paper recently read before
the Anthropological Society, at London.
It's suggestions arc based upon natural
aud historical fact aud principal, and the
deductions of philosophy, aud viii be
readily corroborated by all who are famil-
lar with the history and character of the
negro:
For five thousand years, as Egytian
sculptures prove, the negro has been more
Or less in constant contact with high forms
Of civilization, and during that period he
has never emerged from the lowest social
position never given to the world an idea
Of the remotest value in art, science or
literature never shown the slightest ca
pacity, even for selEgovernment. Is he,
then, to be put on an equality with the
white race! Certainly not, unless by
those who look back with reverence to q
progenitor in the ape. Moreover, the
negro will only labor when coerced. Left
to himself, he is not only incorrigibly
lazy, but vicious and cruel. In juxtaposi.
tion with minority CT whites, his domi-
nant idea is that of exterminating them
and possessing their property. In pas.
sions he is brute, in capacity child
Harsh opinions, these, perhaps, but stub
born facts place them unfortunately, be.
yond the power of refutation. Years
ago, in total ignorance of the subject, we
fancied, as some do now, that it was q
mere question of skin. and that, give the
negro fair chance, he would run par.
allel with the white man. We acknowl
edge our mistake. Long and unbiased
study of the matter has convinced us that
the negro, left alone, relapses, certainly
into his natural barbarism, and is about
as safe neighbor as a wild beast.
In confirmation of these opinions, the
author not merely gives his own length
ened experience, but quotes multitude
of authorities and he extenuates recent
severity in Jamaica by an account of pre-
vious revolts there, and the fact that the
whites were outnumbered on this occa
sion by forty to one.
