G%A Contributor to the Farmers
Adcertiser says that by feeding young
colts a considerable amount OF grain,
in conjunction with hay and other
light articles of food. they thrive bet
ter, and their limbs become better
knit than when ted only on light
food. If proper supply Of food be
withheld while an animal is young,
it will be injured in its constitution,
and consequently in its value, to a
fair greater extent than any saving
that can be effected in its feed.
ssBAKED HAMs.-Most persons boil
hams They are much better baked,
if baked right. Soak for an hour in
clean water aud wipe dry, and then
spread it all over with thin flour
batter, and lay in a deep dish with
sticks under it to keep it out Of the
gravy. When fully done take off the
skin and butter crusted on the flesh
side, and set aside to cool. You will
find it very delicious, bat rich for our
dyspeptics, says one Of our agricultu
raj exchanges.

The Republican State Convention.

The last number of the Pioneer md
Wisconsin. published at Sank City,
concludes all article on the action of
inc Republican State Convention as
follows:
Thus rs far rs the ticket is COZ,
cerned, We can begin the contest
with democracy with courage, for il
bears the names of m.4 Of known
capacity, who have been tried. and
who stand high in the regard of the
people. But there was more solici-
tude this time than ever before about
tue platform Oh which the candidates
OF the Republican party should stand.
And we are rejoiced that we are en-
ahied TO insure our readers that the
German Republicans in Wisconsin,, ut
least, have no cause to separate
themselves from their hitherto party
associates OF Anglo>A merican lineage.
The temperance and religious ques-
tons We're disposed of by the con-
vention in such manner and with
out the least objection, that the Ger
man delegates-of whom there were
greater numbers than at any previ~
Gus convention-could give 1t their
most hearty accord Those who
think TO reckon Wisconsin among
the doubtful states" will find them
selves feariully mistaken il they
live until next November they will
witness as powerful blow dealt to
the democracy" as it has for many
years past been in the habit OF re,
ceiving every fall,
The La Crosse Mort, Stern, after
stating that 1t is unable to give the
proceedings in the Convention, or
any elaborate comments thereon. un,
I'll its next number appears says:
"Only this much will we now re-
mark that we are exceedingly well
pleased with the result Of the Con,
vention, not merely on account of
the candidates nominated for State
officers, but, also, especially on ne.
count OF the principles presented in
the platform. The platform is very
radical and, ut the same time, the
most liberal which was ever adopted
by u party. The paragraph which
possesses, especially to u German
citizens, great weight and interest, Is
that which bears on the temperance
and Sunday questions, and which de,
ciares the aim Of the party, more
clearly to define, and to establish
firmly and forever, that perfect civil
and religious liberty which is now
guaranteed by our State and nations
al Constitutions that we are in ia
vor OF the largest measure Of indi
vidual liberty consistent with the
public good, and opposed to any leg
islation in derogation thereof except
to prevent acts which infringe the
equal liberty of Others"

From the Aveuir NauonaLI
Several Journals have stated that secret
[ instructions iuterdicted the emperor oi
1 Mexico from re-entering Austrian terri
tory. We now receive some more pre-
else information on the subject. It re-
fers TO a quarrel between MaEimiiian
and his brother, the emperor Of Austria,
the origin Of which dates bachsome time.
Before leaving for Mexico, the arch
duke signed at Nirsmar, toward the end
| Of April, 1864, a document IN which he
repounced all claim for himself and his
1 descendants, il he should have any, 70
the throne aud patrim0uial possessions
of the house Of Hapsburg. Scarcely,
however. had he assumed the crown Of
| Mexico when he sent to the principal
| European powers a protest against that
/ remuneration. This step alienated the
two brothers from each other for q long
/ time, and it Was only by means Of the
/ good offices OF the late king Of the Bel
| gians that his son-in-law was restored 20
! favor at the court of Austria But some
/ time since the American journals puU-
! hshed q letter written by n. ElOin- pri-
vate secretary to the emperor Of Mexico,
and addressed to this latter.
| In that missive, which had been inter-
cepted by the JUarists, N. Eioin eX-
| pressed himself with remarkable blunt
ness respecting the internal condition Of
] the Austrian empire on the discomfort
! caused by the defeat Of the imperial
armies the diminutiOn of the influence
! Of the Vienna government, and the pros
! poets which, as a consequence Of these
/ events, might present themselves TO the
emper0r's brother. The publication of
! fhf5 Iaffar which has mot hppn li<svpWpd
| either by NJ EIoin or by bis master, Te-
yived the resentment Of Francis Joseph,
and determined him TO iuterdict his
/ brother from ali access to tLe posts aud
! territories of his empire. Our cores
poudent adds that great efforts are being
made to bring about a fresh reconcilia-
/ ton and the Withdrawal of a decision
which would place NaXimiFysn in posi-
/ ton Of great ni1aTrassmafs.-, day on
