the Registers under General Sheridan

Congress did not intend to exclude q man
from voting who had happened to take
an oath to support the Constitution, and
then participated in the rebellion, unless
he had held an office, which required an
oath of loyalty to the national govern,

Hog Market.

Latest advices from St Louis report the
market for hogs a little more firm than
it has been for the past two weeks. The
market is well stocked and prices are but
little higher than are offered in Saint
Joseph.
In Chicago, this season, up to the 18th
inst, the receipts of hogs were 707, 1925,
of which number 455,24l had been pack.
ed against 335,346 received and lOl,-
900 packed for a corresponding period
last year.
The hog market in Cincinnati at last
advices was much demoralized. Packers
were standing of, and drovers were max
ing preparations to pack on their own &C.
count Only about 5000 head were re-
ceived in that city on the 10th inst.
The receipts IL this city, continue stea.

WOMEN AS DocToRs.-The New York
Medical College for Women, which
held its fourth commencement recent
ly, graduated nine ladies as doctors.
Prof. Willis, in his remarks, said there
are three hundred female medical
practitioners in the country, some of
whome were in possession of practices
worth from $4,000 to $4,000 a year,
. and expressed sound doctrine when he
said that all he wanted was fair op-
portunity to be given to women to be-
come whatever they wished. Let that
opportunity be accorded them, and
they would hear no more of the ques-
ton whether women know more or
less than men," The New England
Female College, on Wednesday last,
graduated five more lady physicians.
Alderman Cumston, the President, al
luded happily to the growing impor-
tance of this class of practitioners, and
to the welcome they received from the
community.

FACTS WORTH REMEMBERING.-A
correspondent gives the following
facts worth remembering:
1t is worth while for all farmers
everywhere, to remember that
thorough culture is better than three
mortgages on their farm.
That an offensive war on weeds is
five times less expensive than a defen-
sive one.
That good fences always pay better
than lawsuits with neighbors.
That hay is a great 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. Don't buy
him.
That serimping the feed of fatten-
ing hogs is waste of grain.
That over-fed fowls wont lay eggs.
That cows should always be milked
regularly and clean.

A HAND STUMP MACHINE One OF
the most convenient and effective la
borsaving machines which we met with
was hand stump -puller, or rock litter.
1t is especially, adapted to pulling
small stumps from one foot in diane
ter, or any size smaller. We saw two
men extract green pine stumps, which
are the most difficult stumps to pull,
having tap roots that extended more
than six feet perpendicularly into the
ground; and the time required to
place the machine in position, hitch
the chain and lay the stump on the
surface of the ground did not occupy
five minutes. Indeed, they lifted a
stump out in less time than they would
require to fell the same tree with axes.
The machine consists ola strong but
light frame, having four corner posts,
about seven feet long, framed togeth-
er at the top and spread outward at the
bottom, having the lower ends framed
into strong cross-pieces which rest on
the surface of the ground. At each
end are two handles, with which two
laborers can easily carry it bodily from
place to place. Two bars of iron hav-
ing notches in one side, are let down
from the top of the frame, and the low
er ends are secured by bolts to long,
horizontal lever. A strong chain is
hitched around the stump, or, if it is
too short, pair of heavy iron forcep-
dogs are made fast to the stump, rock,
or what is to he lifted, when the lever
is worked up and down like a pump
handle, which lifts one of the notched
bars about one inch, when an iron pawl
falls into the notch and holds all that
is gained in lifting. When the oppo-
site end of the lever goes up, the 9th
ernotched bar rises one. notch, when a
pawl holds it. BY increasing the
length of the levor snoh machine cor
be employed with eminent advantage
in taking out large stumps where the
roots are partially decayed.
1t will be understood that in locali-
ties where the timber is heavy and
stumps very large, this hand machine
is not sufficiently powerful to take out
large stumps, which require an effec-
tive force adequate to raise twenty or
thirty tons. Two men can lift rock
with such a machine that will weigh
five or six tons, and perhaps more 1t
is sufficiently powerful to pull up ap-
pie trees of ordinary size, without any
digging around the roots, for the pur-
pose of chopping them.-N. 7. Times
