4 form mOfgOvernment was established
in ls6l by the Israelites resident in the
United States, far the purpose of guard
ing the race in America. This organi-
2ation has been i'll regular operation
ever since its establishment, but so ex-
clusively have its doings been confined
to the affairs and circles of those inter
ested that the public at large has
known very little of its existence. The
business of this government has grown
so important rs to attract marked at

sip of loans negotiating and bonds

the lsraelitish government, bear

organization is intended to cooperate
with similar associations in other parts
Of the world, the grand object being a
iurtherance of the favorite and tradi-
hOnal Jewish idea, that the whole race
Of lsraelites will be ultimately gathered
together in the land oftheir ferefathers.
Then, they believe, the whole temple
OF Jerusalem will be rebuilt, preparatO-
ryto the coming of the Messiah to vim

AGolored Serene How q.

The spread of "Sereno Howeism" in
New England has extended to the virtu-
Gus colored class. who are now candi-
dates for the right Of suffrage in that
sanity region. A few days ago, our ex-
changes advise us, negro was arranS-
ad before a criminal court in New Hav-
ell, on the charge of having committed
"Howeism" in fifteen cases, i'll which
eleven OF his victims were boys, and
the other four, little girls. He was con-
ycted on each accusation and sentenced
to pay Sl00 and 10 go to Jail six
months for each offence. 1t was
unfortunate that his crimes were
not committed in Massachusetts,
where such seyele sentences for slight
offences" are regarded as IN "invidiOus
distinction OH account of color" In
that State it would not have been con-
sidered proper to bring him to trial and
parade his crimes before the public, and
he would have been advised to quietly
leave the State and seek some other To-
cality to follow his favorite pursuit.
From the facts in this negro's case, it
appears that he was arrested once be-
fore for the same offence and sentenced
to thirteen years Imprisonment. but on
being released last fall, he immediately
Recommended his licentious operations.

EnshiOnable Suicide.

Suicides are becoming decidedly fash
ionable. st. Louis, Cincinnati and Chi
cago have taken to "the style" with
special kindliness, while the mails from
every other direction inform us of some
unfortunate mortal, who has concluded
TO shuttle off this mortal coil 10y dieting
on landanum or dancing at the end OF a
rope. This is not a pleasant state of
things to contemplate, and some meas
ures should be devised, if possible, to
check a crime which is now frightfully
on the increase. Human life seems to
have lost its sacredness, and is sacrificed
with the utmost recklessness by those
who imagine that they have been the
victims of misfortune, and that the
world has no place for them worth their
keeping.

PROFITS OF WHEAT RAIsING.-A wri-
ter in the Wisconsin Farmer illustrates
the profitableness of wheat raising in
Minnesota, by a single example. Four
or five years ago he purchased piece OF
prairie land in Sharon. Minnesota,
which was thought to be nearly worn
out, on which he last year raised eigh-
teen bushels of wheat to the acre. On
account Of the grain sprouting after be-
ing cut, some thirty bushels of light
wheat were thrown out by the thresh-
ing machines; besides about an acre was
destroyed by cattle before harvest other
wise the yield would have beentwenty
bushels Of the acre. The price of the
land $6 an acre, being $l3s for % acres,
the field in question. The marketable
wheat, amounting to some $40 bushels,
was sold at the average price of 81 40
per bushel, realizing $5lS. ALI ex-
penses, including seed, amounted to
some $3.50, $322 remaining, being more
than twice the amount paid for it real
lied out Of one crop. f5

How TO Raise PIums.

Many people, in fact most people,
think it very difficult matter to raise
plums. As usually cultivated, it is of
little use to plant plum trees. The
young plums all fall a prey to the cur
culio. This is the experience of all
who plant a few trees, And but few
persons plant more than five or six or
eight or ten trees. They think these
will afford enough fruit for tho family.
But the family never see any of the ripe
plums. The curculiO wants all these
few trees produce.
Now, there is secret about plum
raising. We have discovered it in
travelling over the country. We never
visited large plum orchard in all our
life that we did not find plenty of the
fruit. And we never visited any place
with eight or ten trees and found a
good crop of this fruit. Now, these
facts set us to thinking; and the result
of our thoughts is this: that is very
easy to have all the plums you want to
eat and sell. The secret connected with
plum raising is to plant plenty of trees,
so as to give fruit to the curculio and
to yourself also. If you will plant fifty
or hundred or two hundred trees, you
will have fruit enough for everybody.
EverSsuch orchard that we ever visited
had plenty ofripe fruit. Some even
complained that the curculio did not
thin out the fruit enough-that the
trees were overloaded
So we say to our readers, if You plant
plums at all, plant fifty or one hundred
trees-then. you viii be sure to have all
the fruit you want. 1t sells for five to
ten dollars bushel in the st. Louis
market, and is one of the most profta-
BILE crops raised.-Rurat U0rld.

,;,;.iou Of Labor Among Rulers.

New England teacher of Freed
mems Bureau school for the education
of little negroes in Richmond, one
HORACE W. HovEY, undertook to fog a
white boy who was not under his schol-
,,,ic jurisdiction. and for this, after
proper trial and conviction, he was SEN
,spced by a Richmond cour to 500 fine
and one months imprisonment. General
scuorIELp romitted the fne, and
Goyerner PIERPolNT pardoned him
from the imprisonment. This is all
pleasant and satisfactory, and shows q
state of feeling between the two rulers,
civil and military, real aud bogus, of
the happiest kind. How unlike SHERI-
n,y and WELLS of Louisiana.

CATTLE.-Our success in grazing de-
pends much upon making proper selec-
tiops. Any directions that may be
given---the most careful descriptions to
those not experienced-can only be par
tial helps. The experienced grazier
needs no proper description to make
proper selections; his eye is sufficient.
Both quality and weight will be deter
mined with wonderful accuracy. The
first thing that will naturally strike
the eve will be the haif-the outside
covering of the animal. This should
present a healthy appearance-thick
mossy coating of hair. COlors are but
little regarded. The skin should have
q soft, mellow fell, The head short, muz-
zle small, the top of the head rather
wide; o mild quiet eye, neck round; q
broad fat neck is indicative of weak
ness; the body shoald be cylindrical;
the back straight and wide, and the
legs short and sufficiently large to indi-
cate a growthy beast. Docility is a very
important quality. Avid bullock new
or fattens well. Athorough knowledge
of the proper qualities Of q bullock is
not only Of service in selecting but also
in fixing tine value of herds of cattle.
The grazier generally buys his cattle
in various sized punches, and it is
necessary to note carefully the number
of Indifferent or poor ones, and throw
them out; or if they must be taken good
and bad together, as is frequently the
case, then the price must be fixed ac-
cording to the quality Of the whole.
