The Negro Suffrage Amendment.

During the late political campaign,
the radicals strenuously denied that the
design of the constitutional amendment,
which they denominatcd 'The Great
Issue" was to force negro suffrage upon
the people of the Southern States,
Nothing would bring ont more radical
venom and yitupcration than the charge
that the party was laboring to
bring about negro suffrage. But,
now that the elections are over,
radical journals are admitting the fact
tha; thew sought, Lndcr the ambiguous
language of the proposed amendment,
to compel the States to permit negroes
to vote. As one Of the latest scraps OF
evidence of this radical Interpretation
of the amendment we note the fact that
FoRHuY. the chief journalist of the rad
ical party. says that the recent utter
ances of the Chicago Times, the Wash
ington City Star and other journals, in
favor Of negro suffrage, prove the ne
ccssity of stcrnly insisting upon thenew
constitutional amendment"

Hints for Farmers.

1t is not what we make, but what we
save that makes us rich.
In looking around among my brother
farmers, notice many things wherein
there might be greater economy, in my
opinion.
In turning cattle out late in the fall,
when the grounds are soft, to be tramp
led npon. ;.
In letting cattle stand in an unshelt-
cred ward in cold, stormy weather,
when there is room in tho stable for
them.
In throwing their fodder in the yard
to be trampled under foot, instead OF
feeding it in racks.
In not having water in the yard for
the cattle, in place of driving them
through snow and all kinds OF weather
to the creek, thereby losing more i'll
manure during a year than the inter
est of what it would cost to bring the
water in the yard, to say nothing OF the
convenience.
In not having n house for poultry TO
roost in, and save their drOppings; the
value of the latter from ono hundred
fowls in one year would pay the cost OF
the building, not counting the advant-
age it would be to the fowls.
In not having wood-hOuse to cut in,
in rainy days, and store up dry wood.
In leaving potato vines, weeds, etc,
90 to waste instead of hauling them to
the hog-pen, to be worked into manure.
In riding about and leaving the
management of the work too mnch to
hired help.
And last, but not least, in sending
their children 10 school day or two in
each week and allowing them to play
and loiter about the rest Of it.

a Romantic Scene,

The scene was enacted at Berlin on
the morning of the entrance of the vic
torious troops. A young and distin-
guished officer of the Cuirassiers, who
had received cut of sabre from an
Austrian Uhlan, was paying a visit to
his fdncte, young lady attached to the
Queens household. Her lover entered
her sd Ion in his full uniform, and wear
ing his helmet, but on taking seat
near his lady-lovc, he took off his he'll
met and put it on small table in front
of the fire, as, Notwithstanding all the
enthusiasm of the population, the day
was cold. By some sudden movement,
however, the young officer upset the
table, and the helmet rolled into the
fire. There was scream and an eXcla-
nation of horror. The scream was, of
course, feminine; the expression OF dis
may, however, was masculine, caused by
seeing the horse-tail of the helmet catch
fire and burn away in an instant To
Join his regiment and pass the King
wearing a singed helmet and one guilt
less of horse-tail, was utterly impossible,
and still less was it possible to absent
himself on such a day. One eXasper-
ating fact was that the helmet was
burnt behind; the wits among the crowd
would therefore imagine that he had re-
ceived shot while flying from the en-
envy. Needless to remark that every
shop in the city of Berlin was closed.
Suddenly Romeos fair Juliet started,
seized pair of scissors, and, IN fewer
seconds that it takes me TO write, cut of
the whole of her magnificent cherelare
doree, and with marvellous ingenuity
fastened it to the scorched helmet.
Thus Grag Won = rode at the head of
his squadron of Cuirassiers with flow
ing trophy of love and devotion, such as
one would have thought a Roman wom-
an of old alone would have parted with;
but this deed was done by fair Prus-
sian, and in the midst of the prosaic
nineteenth century.

The Whole Question.

The National Mtciiigcpccr sums up
the whole question at issue between the
President and the Congress in the fol-
lowing trrsc and conclusive argument.
Itprcscuts the subject in nutshell and
coudcu>es whole volumes into a few
pointed paragraphs:
First, either every State has right
10 representation, or it has no right
That every State has such right is too
clear for argument.
Second. the Southern States are either
States. or they are not States. If they
are not States. it must either haveIhap-
pcucd from their own action or the ac-
tiou of the Government of the United
States
Ii could not have been by their own
action, because that has always been
held by the United States i'll this re-
gard to have hcen nullity.
1t has not been by the action of the
United States, because every act of
President Lincoln. and of Congress,
and the Supreme Court, during the war,
and every act Of President Johnson, of
the present Congress. and the Supreme
Court, since the war. assumes that the
iUNurrcctiOuary States are States. This
could not he otherwise, for there is no
power in any department of the
Government of the United States
tn destroy State. Neither the
iu>mrcctionaTv States could destroy
themselves. nor could Congress or any
branch Of ,hcGuvcrnmcnt destroy them.
The only wa by which they could be
destroyed would he by the Northern
people rs an act of violence. No SUch
act has taken place.
The late iuSurrcctionary States are
therefore still States. They therefore
have a right to representation. Yet
Congress, the creature of the ConStitu-
tluu. acting under the Constitution, and
bound hy IL. and sworn to abide by its
Provisions, assumes the imperial power

Remarkable Prescntiment.


Last week (Friday) Mr.. j. D. Seaver,
of Stowe, Sheriff of Lamoille county,
was fatally injured. 1t seems there was
a horse trot at MorristOwn, in which he
and Mr.. Gilman were parties. Seaver's
gig was overturned by his running into
Gilman's, when Mr.. Seaver was dragged
about thirty rods and badly mangled,
especially about the head.
While at Montpelier last week, we
heard some very remarkable statements
made in connection with the death of
Mr.. Seaver, as stated above. We give
them as we head them, and can, if neces-
sary, name our authority. We under
stand for long time previous to the
death of Mr.. Seaver, his wife repeatedly
told him that death would enter their
family. and strongly urged him to pur-
chase a lot in the ccmetery-upon which,
it seems, Mr.. Seaver had been at work
helping to lay it out, &c.
On the morning of the day on which
the above race took place, Mrs. Sea-
yer told her husband that she had
dreamed the night before that she had
seen him thrown from a wagon,
dragged some distance and strike his
head against something, she could not
tell what, and was killed. She urged
him not to go to the race. He smiled at
the dream, not being at all superstitious,
and went. He, however, seemed to be
not altogether right, and Just before
the race told Mr.. Gilman that he would
much rather not drive. but upon the
earnest solicitation of Mr.. G. did so
with the above result. Mrs. Seaver,
upon his departure for the race, dressed
herself as if ready for journey, and
awaited, rs she aifirms, to be called up
OH to go to him. And she was. When
sent for, she told the messenger before
he related his errand that she knew
what he had come for. All of which
we give as we heard it, and pronounce
it very strange, if true, and we believe
it is

AGRICULTURAL.


Our cows give fully one-third more
butter this year than last, due solely to
good feeding and warm quarters In the
winter. They were cows l bought with
the farm. They looked well but prov
ed to be poor mixers. They had been
suffered to go dry about the first OF No
vember, under the impression that mills
ing them in the winter would seriously
injure them the coming summer. And
have no doubt that there is consider
able truth in this idea, provided the
cows in the winter have nothing but
cornstalks and straw and are not sta
bled. But if they are not fed literally,
they may be MIXED, not only without
injury, but with positive advantage. 1t
favors the habit of secreting milk. Till
within six weeks or two months of
calving, a good COW, with plenty
Of rich food, can give four or
fve quarts of milk per day,
and will still be able to secure milk
enough for the calf. She will eat and
assimilate more food, and will get the
habit of secreting more milk. believe
there is no better way of restoring the
milking qualities of cows that have de-
generated from poor management. L
givesmy cows three quarts each OF corn
meal per day, and an abundant supply
of cornstalks and straw. Instead of
letting them 90 dry in November, kept
them stabbed in cold weather, and they
gave moro milk, or rather more butter
after we commenced to feed grain IN
November and December, than they did
in August and September. l MIXED
some Of them until within six weeks
of calvthg. This is perhaps too much
ten weeks would be better. The cows,
after we stopped milking, fleshed up
rapidly, and many were the predictions
that the corn-meal would spoil them
for rmilk. But it did not. They gave more
milk than ever before, and it certainly Is
very much richer. The prospects now
are that for the year commencing the
1st of last November, till the 1st of next
November, they will give as much again
butter as they ever gave in year be-
fore. Somuch for good feeding IN WIN
ter. Wo weigh every pound OF butter
made, and l feel confident that this
opinion will prove correct. have not
vet fed meal this summer; but shall do
it at the moment there is any lndlca-
tions of a falling off in butter. In fact,
I should feed meal now if / had my
buildings conveniently arranged for
the purpose. / have not the slightest
doubt that it would pay to give each
COW two quarts of corn and pea meal a
day. If twenty bushels Of corn year
will double, or even add one-third to,
the amount of butter and cheese made
by COW, it is easy to figure whether 1t
is profitable or not. l do not say
they will not eat as much grass and fod-
der as if they were not fed meal. The
more food thay will eat the better, pro,
vided it is turned into butter and

To Keep Tires on Wheels.

Hear what a practical man says on the
subject: II ironed a wagon one year ago
for my own use, and before putting on
the tires filled the felloes with linseed
oil; and the tires have worn out and
were never loose. ironed a buggy for
my own use several years ago, and the
tires are now rs tight as when put on.
My method of filling the fellOes with oil
is as follows: use long cast iron heat
er, made for the purpose. The oil is
brought to boiling heat, the wheel is
placed on n stick, so as to hang in the
oil each felloe, an hour for n common
sized felloe The timber should be dry.
as green timber will not take oil. Care
should he taken that the oil be no hot
ter than a boiling heat, in order that
the timber be not burnt. Timber filled
with oil is not susceptible to water, and
the timber is much more durable. |
was amused some years ago, when Itold
the blacksmith how to keep the tire
tight on wheels, by his telling me it
was a profitable business to tighten
tires, and the wagon maker will say that
it is profitable to him to make and re-
pair wheels; but what will the farmer
who supports the wheelwright sayW

Good Butter vs.. Foul Cellars.

Good butter can't be made in foul Gel
lars. Nothing receives a faint more
easily than butter. 1t becomes infected
readily by offensive odors. Much sweet
er, better butter is made in spring houses
than in cellars. Decayed cabbage, tur-
nips, etc, in cellar do not impart any
virtues to butter, but deteriorate it bad
lv. Good butter is one of the great lux
uries of the table; and nothing but scru-
pulous care and neatness will secure it..
Early in the Spring give the cellar a
thorough cleansing and scrubbing, If You
please. Then whitewash it from top to
bottom. A little lime scattered about
in heaps is also beneficial. Have an op-
portunity to vcntilate cool nights and
mornings. But be able to close it tight
in warm weather.
Shut in the cool air and give it no
chance to escape. Then, if you will
scald your pans and crooks and buckets
with boiling water daily, and use the
proper skill and care, you can make and
pack butter tha5 it will be pleasure to
eat.-Rurdl UI0rld

Selecting n Cow.

1t is sometimes the case that the best
Judges will be deceived. A COW of
very unpromising appearance, coarse in
the neck, large boned, and second or
third rate milk marks generally, viii
now and then tum out to be first-rate;
while another, with these marks large
" developed, fine in the head and neck,
and promising every way, will prove
unsatisfactory. But a failure in this
case is rare. Let the head be light, the
forehead broad, the horn rather thin
and clear, the eye clear and prominent,
the neck thin, and the quarters very
light, the back straight, the hiDdquT-
tiers well developed, wide over the lOins,
the carcass deep, the skin soft to the
touch, the teats well set, not too large
nor too small, and the tail long and
thin like a whip-lash. Such a COW
ought to be q good one.
