FERNANDO wooD, late Democratic
member OF Congress from New York,
three times Democratic Mayor of the
city, and present nominee otthe Mozart
wing of the Democracy for a new cleo
ton to the Office, made speech at
Cooper Institute last week in the course
of which he said:
al charge that at the late election the
Tamnany Hall organization imported
thieves from Philadelphia to vote their
ticket; thnt these thieves were organ
lied i'll different wards of the city, and
that bands of them voted in more
than sixteen wards and in more than
one hundred and twent y-five electoral
districts. lCheers.l More than that:
IT is known that several of the inspect
ors OF election, after receiving the bal
lot from the voter, substituted another
ballot aud deposited it in the box"
Taking this statement OF Woods TO
be true, it is not at all wonderful that
his party ran up a majority of 10000 in
the city of New York.

O, 1867, was organized by appointing
Daniel FELTON,, Chairman. j. w. Ira
bern, Secretary. land f. G. w. Ford,
Speaker. The following resolutions

ReSOLVed, That whereas IL combina-
ton of treason and treachery, consist
ing OF the rebels of the South and the
COpperheads of the North, claiming for
themselves the plausible name OF the
National Union Party, with the view,
doubtless, of reviving the Democracy

suspicious name, National Union, II
becomes the duty, therefore, of the
loyal, patriotic and country-lovinB,
everywhere, to rally for the right, and
forever defend the principles so glori-

President, and Schuyler Coliax, of In
diana. for Vice President of the United

Phe Currant.

AT the March meeting Of the Cincinnati
Horticultural Society, Mr. HEAVIER read a
report on the cultivation Of the currant.
from which we make the following extract:
"The various modes by which this fruit
may be prepared for the qualification of our
sense Of taste, as well also its being in sea
son at time of year when its pleasant acid
is most acceptable to the palate and refresh
ing to our relaxed systems, are strong argu
ments in favor of its more extended cultiva-
ton; for nearly three months during the
hottest parts of the summer it can be used
as continent or as an article OF food, and
can be preserved in the various forms Of
Jams, ielies dried or canned, and thus be
available at all seasons of the year, and e.
ven retain it's good qualities unimpaired for
several years. With all these good quail
ties to recommend it to popular favor. | ask
if it is not surprising that so little attention
should be paid to so desirable and useful an
article of domestic consumption? There
are few articles more easily produced, and
more gratefully refreshing to the fevered
invalid, whose lips are parched with burn
ing thirst, than q small portion of jelly to
give piquancy to the cooling draught.
Cuttings of the previous years growth
may be taken off early in the spring, some
ten or twelve inches long; the terminal
shoot should be cut back to strong promi-
nent bud these cuttings planted in mel
low ground, well prepared, will readily take
root and grow, and the next fall or spring
may be planted where they are permanent
ly to remain.
Various distances are recommended for
planting. | think the best is five feet by
FIVE This will allow ample room for work.
ing and picking. Cultivating may be done
withe the pillow for thefirst two or three years
after which time the roots near the surface
would be liable to injury by that instru
ment; shallow, surface working shoulc
then be adopted, and the plants sustained
and the weeds kept down in early summer
by muching. The currant makes one con
tinued growth III the spring and into the
summer, but when it once stops it does not
break out into a second growth during the
ummer; hence the Importance of stimua
lating and encouraging a strong aud early
growth
The shoot or shoots left for after-fruiting
should be shortened from one to three OF
four inches, according to its strength, anC
this will induce it to throw out lateral
branches the following seasons, which shoe
be but baclz the mex spring to spurs from
two to four inches in length, and this treat
ment should be repeated each successive sea
son, until the fruiting stock shows signs o.

ferior fruit, when, having provided previ-
ously a succession stock, the old beariue
stem should be cut away near the root"

A Child Eaten BY snakes,

From the Oswego, On. Y Palladium, Nhrch, 16
In the early part of August last, little
girl named Eliza Drummond, about II
years Of age, whose parents live near the
town Of West Monroe, in this county, left
her home one morning for the purpose Of
picking berries and never returned. The
most diligent search was made for her by
the parents and neighbors, aud no trace
could be found She had not been drowned,
for all places where there was any water
had been carefully examined, even to wells
and cisterns in the neigbborhood After
weeks of fruitIess search and inquiry, the
afflicted parents gave VI he child as lost. -
1t was reported that d band of Migrants
had heen seeu near the locality about the
time OF the disappearance, and the opinion
prevailed that the child had been stolen by
gypsies
The event, which created profound sen
sation at the time, had almost died out of the
minds Of a4l'except the stricken parents,
when it was painfully recalled by recent
occurrence On Tuesday last five or six
lads went out hunting in the vicinity and
during the day came npon a spot where a
large number Of black snakes were discov.
cred and killed. The appearance of the
reptiles in such numbers, and at the sea
son OF the year, was considered remarkable,
and it was suggested by one Of the party
that breeding den must be somewhere
near. A search was Immediately made
which resulted in a manner far different
from their expectations.
In the side of little hill, near the edge
Of swamp was found sort Of opening,
which in the summer was concealed by the
tall grass and bushes In this opening was
found human skeleton, from which every
particle of flesh had been taken, the bones
were as white as ivory, and all perfect -
Near by was a tin pail, in rusted condi-
ton, and a tin cup. The boys were terri
bly, frightened, and gave the alarm The
remains were taken from the mouth Of the
den, and all examination showed that the
place had been and probably was now, a
breeding place for black snakes The bold
est hesitated to enter. The entrance, was
large enough for the admission of a mans
body, grew smaller and tended downward.
Lighted balls Of hay soaked in kerosene
were thrown into the cavity, and in less
than fifteen minutes eighty-two snakes
ranging in length from one and a half to
four feet in length were killed.
The pail and cup were recognized by Mr..
and Mrs Drummond as those taken away
by the child when she went away for the
last time. The physician pronounced the
remains those of female child, and there
can be no doubt but that the poor little girl,
while picking berries in the vicinity of the
spot become tired, and seated herself in the
shade Of the opening to this horrible den,
was attacked by the reptiles in numbers
and killed. The discovery has shocked the
whole communit y, and almost Frustrated
the stricken parents, whose hearts are made
to bleed anew at the thought Of the horri-
bic fate which deprived them Of their child.
