Travelling Hints.

80. Never trust your horse TO himself Be
on your guard, and Just feel his mouth with
the bit lightly and steadily. Because you
will thus prevent many an accident through
both being on the alert.
80. Never keep dead pull on the horses
mouth Because it hardens, pains, and irri-
tatcs him.
a. Keep your hand low and steady, and
gently feel the mouth with the bit. Because
you thus awaken the animals attention with
out irritating or Furnishing him.
35. Never leave the rcins loose on the
horses neck. Because he is very likely to
stumble from missing the support of your
hand
3G. Mover stop by pulling up sharply and
suddenly unless in case Of necessity. Be
cause it is very painful and requires immense
excrtion, which tries the iorc-lcgs Of the horse
to great aud most injurious degree.
81. Cheer your horse every now and then
by your voice and pat or two. Because all
animals understand and love u kind word.
3S. Do not keep on jerking the rcins or us
ing the whip. Because if you do so, the
horse cannot tell what you really mean wher
you use them in earnest and jerking the rcinI
hardens the mouth
3d. BE sparing Of the whip, and never Us,
it if you can help it, Because it is ther
available as a last resource.
40 Never pain horse by any cruel, tor
monting punishment Because, if gentle and
moderate correction will not cure him, moth
ing will.
A.. Horses often Shy through delectiv,
sight and very often in the twilight. Because
in these cases they cannot clearly discern Oh
jocts.
AZ. If you whip a horse for shying, yor
do wrong. Because you make him still NOR
terrified without removing the cause
43. If you pat a horse when he SHES, yol
do wrong. Because you seem to encourage
him for what must be considered fault
a. If you speak encouragingy, and lie
him come slowly to the object, yet not to-
close, you do right Because you allow hin
to ascertain what frightened him, and so Civ
him courage
10. Avoid very stony or rough parts Of tn
road. Because it spares the horse and vii
in all probability, avoid many an accident
&C. When the road is very bad, and you
horse tired, it is well to dismount and lea
him. Because he will then be of use wher
: Won can emplov him TO real ADVANTAGE.
AZ. When YOU stop. going M hin. olwa,

To PRESERVE HAMS PROM FLIEs.-1he
best way to preserve hams from flies is, as soon
as they are smoked, to wrap them in two old
newspapers, first with one end and again with
another, and tie the ends of the paper or paste
them down. Let the string to hang them up
by come through the paper, being very care
ful that the hole shall only be large enough
to let the string through No insect can get
through paper. Woolens and furs can be
kept perfectly in the same way, being careful

Can Wool be Raised Cheap.

If you have one hundred good sheep they
will shear four pounds each of well washed
wool. Their pasturage and shearing ought
not to cost over seventy-fye dollars. They
would require good sheds, constant care, dis
eliminating feed Of oats, corn, turnips, pota-
toes, according to condition, and 20 tons Of
hay. At the average price Of hay for the
past few years, this ought not to be called
over 1926, or SIS per ton for hay, and s25
to $50 for extras. But the whole cost Of
the 100 good sheep per year ought not to ex-
coed $500. They should then be debited
with 30 per cent. on their purchase, or on
their worth on the first day of November
previous, say $500, aud 20 per cent. of il
would be $50. They might then be credited
with the following
by 20 cords Of manure worth $40
by 10 lambs worth 80
by 400 bs Of wool at 40 cents v b., 100
TOTAL $500
So for $500 you have $500, or, by exac
computation, have sustained loss of $40
Ii this were added to the price of the WOO
it would make it cost IS cents per pound
1t cannot be raised for less and call the labo
and produce of the farmer any thing. Tn
lambs will no more than keep his flock goo,
and pay the first cost, and nobody need ex
poet, as wool is now Sold to realize NOR
profit on sheep than as above II you ad,

or $4,000, and raise higher grade lambs, the

Steam Street Cars.
From the Detroit Free Press. 12th.l

From the Detroit Free Press. 18TH
The most important question that has
claimed the attention of street railway
corporations during the last fifteen years
has been the discovery of some method
of preventing the vast mortality among
horses, occssioned by the arduous nature
of the labor to which they are unsvoid-
ably subjected. That this is a question
of really great Importance is fully shown
by the fact that horses used for street
railway purposes last only about three
months, and the expense attendant upon
the purchase of fresh stock three times a
year, it will readily be conceded, detraets
largely from the profit Of such enter
prises.
Various plans, which it was thought
might obyiaie this difficulty, have been
tried, but with no measure Of success
that would warrant the adoption Of any
one Of them.
Mr.. A. A. Wilder, of this city, has COM
pletsd an invention, which, in the opinion
of large number of scientific gentlemen,
who have witnessed its operations, is des-
tined to revolutionize the whole system
of street railroading. Mr.. Wilder's in
vention consists Of steam condenser,
and appliances for attaching locomotive
engine to the forward platform Of the car
in such manner that neither steam,
smoke, nor cinders can escape; and the
Roise made BY the machinery is not so
great IS that produced BY the working Of
a Wheeler & Wilson sewing machine.
The boiler is locted upon the platform.

Suffrage in Tennessee.

The Chicago Republican has an article
on Suffrage in Tennessee" which,
while affectingto dissent from the Brown
low policy, is designed to whitewash it
by making it appear as temporary
affair. We quote:
1.-The basis Of suffrage in Tennessee
differs radically from what it is in any
other of the reconstructed States. There
almost every man who participated in
the rebellion is DISTINGUISHED. 1t is
claimed by the excluded class that its
numbers amount 70 about eighty thou
sand. This discrimination against the
ex-rebels has been resented by them in
the bitterest manner, eventusting in
wide spread lawlessness and violence. IL
became necessary, in 1867, to call out
the militia tc suppress insubordlnstion,
and 10 give protection to law-ablding cit
izens in various portions Of the State. A
fraction Of the disfranchised people, how
ever, submitted quietly from the first,
and gradually there has grown up feel
ing that the period has arrived when il Is
both safe and expedient to extend the
suffrage to those who have given evidence,
By their uniform good conduct, that they
would rot employ the franchise to
strengthen the cause of public disorder
The idea of this proposed concession is
to show that the existing disfranehise-
ment is not a scheme to maintain q par
tissn ascendency. but wise and neees-
sary precaution for the safety and welfare
Of our civil institutions, and that il will
be relaxed whenever the public good can
be conduced thereby"
Truth and falsehOod are sdroiily mixed
in the foregoing II Is true that "all "
who we're rebels are disfraDchised except
those Of them who have become Rail-

recent articles in the fsuitieton of the

disgust, saw that she lived very hap

calls; but it ought to be added, in order
to make the statement correct, that
thousands of Union men, who are not
Radicals, are also disfranchised. 1t is
not true that there was the least provo
cation in 1867 for calling out the
militia. That was simply an unprovoked
declaration of war on the part of the
Radical authorities. The most decep-
tive portion of the extract, however, is
tat which asserts that there is dispo-
sition on the part of Brownlow's party to
liberalize its policy. Nothing of the sort.
The policy was adopted to put Radicals
in Office, and as long as the Office holders
thus created have the matter iu charge
they are not likely to cut their own head
Off This is the long and the short Of it.
