Farmers find here thousands of hints and sug-

Mechanics find much that interests them in
the engravings and descriptions of implements
and machinery; also in the directions for cul-
ture IN their garden lots, if they have them.
City Merchants find a large amount of valua-
Bile information for the management Of their
country places, or which at least helps to keep
bright in their minds the pleasing ideal of a
beautiful place in the country, to which SO
many are looking forward when they shall
retire from business.
Country Merchants keep the paper in their
stores where customers can see it, and many of
them secure large clubs.
Children are delighted with the sketches and
beautiful engravings found in the Boys and

Everybody finds something to please, interest

ITO THE PUBLIC.

AS the attention of the readers of the Rutlal
HERALD has been called to the sarcastic an
sDiteful remarks of Frank Hall, in justine
ton to myself will say, that there is one truu
full remark in the advertisement, which is TN
that did purchase Steinway Piano of Messr
Cluett Il Sons of Troy, for Mr.. ChsttertOn. IL
cause of Halls angeris simply this Mr.. Cha
terton had previously ordered Piano OF Tia
and after waiting patiently for nearly Nv
months and the Plane not arriving, he gave \
the privilege of ordering which done and 10
instrument came the same week. This Is u
substance of the affair, which must be hlgh-
interesting to the public. As Hall has inserte
his correspondence, / show him that two CD
play the same game. -a,,,,,,,

advocates the enfranchisement OF the

There is a hitch in the project to
sell the government property at Harper's
Ferry. The heirs Of the parties who
sold the property originally declare that
the deed expressly provides that the
land shall be used only by the govern
ment, and by no other parties. The
original purchase was 12l acres, for
81 900, and George Washington executed
the deed in behalf Of the government.
The New York Heralds Washington
correspondent has more to say about the
proposition that is to be submitted to
the Secretary of the Treasury by prom

the government shall resume specie pay
ment on the 30th Of June next, and that
a direct tax be at the same time imposed
on the outstanding debt. The holders
of the seven-thirty and fve-twenty bonds
can well afford they say, to pay moder-
ate tax upon them.

johnson on q Big Strike"

That the Dictator at the White House is
clearing his way of all loyal impediments
for some astounding move, there is no ques-
tion of doubt. For many months be was
exceedingly quiet, but the apathy he display
ed was only a veriication Of the adage that
"sti!l water runs deep" The time draws
near for the loyal people of the Union to Sc
lect another to fill the place of the huge PO-
litical ehess-player. He sees, unless he makes
q desperate effort, that the game is lost, so
far as be is concerned, and as desperate sit
uAtions Of desperate men require desperate
efforts, johnson has resolved to throw of
the mask and try the nation in a hand-to-
hand struggle. Very WE'LL Old hands
are at the bOard-loyal and true. His every
action is closely watched-watched with an
Argus eye, and If be sells his country he will
do it at the peril of bis head. He made a
flank movement to inveigle Grant into his
scheme, but failed. His amnesty prOclama-
tiOn is a big bid for rebel support, which he
expects to secure sooner or later. What his
next move will he ia a m~ystery.-but be what
it may, the eyes of the loyal millions Of this
land are guarding him closely. That the
next session Of Congress will witness his i'm
parchment and final overthrow there is but
little DOUBT. Let him work hiI wires-it
will Sc to no purpose.
