How TO Pur Our CborHEs on Frss.-T
When clothes take FIRE from the upsettings
Of lamp, or other accident, the first im-i
pulse of the burning person is to run 4, :.
the open door, which only fans the fame
and the bystander generally tries to put
out the flame with his bare hands. A little 4
presence of mind will save great Injury
and suffering in such cases. If the blaze 3
is but just started. it may be subdued, BY.
falling instantly upon the floor and thrust
ing the burning part Of the dress under
the person. One standing BY at such -
time should seize wooden blanket, shawl
or cloak, or any woolen fabric at hand,
and spreading it out higher than the head.
run boldly to the unfortunate person.
throw his arms about the neck and envel-
op him or her in its folds as tightly asJ
possible. This instantly smothers the IRE
and saves the face. Throw the person
upon the floor Immediately and the mo-
meut of greatest danger has past. If the
burn is severe physician should be call
ed at once, but in the meantime sotne-'
thing may be done to relieve the pain.
One of the most soothing applications is
linament made Of one part Of raw lin
seed oil and two Of lime-water, applisdcn
cotton. In the absence of these materials
cover the parts freely with -four and put
over coating of cotton to exclude tue
air.-Lynchdurg Nesos.a ea& g''4.o'5 81 !

Judge L. He kept store and saw mill.
and was always sure to have the best of
a bargain on his side, by which he bad
gained an ample fortune; and some did
not hesitate to call him the biggest rascal
in the world. He was very conceited With
al, and used to brag of his business capa-
city when any one was near to listen
One rainy day, as quite number were
seated around the stove, be began, as u.s.
ual, to tell of his great bargains. and at
last wound up with the expression So e

Judge. ,.ss.s5sIi .aoii

"Huw so? p thundered the now enraged
Judge. III - ,tss
We'll. you see, Judge. I sold you one
day a very nice pine log, and bsrgainedi
with you for a lot more. Well, that log
I stole off your pile down by the mill the
night before, and the next day I sold It to-
you. The next night I drew It. back
home; and sold it to you the next dsy.

Pacific Guano Company's
SOLUBLE
(CAPITAL, 1000, ,OOO.)
GUANO,

VIE VALUE OF THIS GUANO is now
l. so nell lknoacm and appreciated, that it does
not require further commendation from us.
The Company oons the Guano Islands, and
other sources Of supply from which its raw
material is drawn. Hence, this Guano, pos
sessing such high excellence, can be brought
into market at price not exceeding that of
the ordinary Super-Phosphates of Lime.
The large capital invested by this Company
affords the surest guarantee of the continued
excellence of their fertilizer, as the safety of
their capital depends upon continued and
permanent business.
Experience has shown that this Guano rip
ems the Wheat crop from fve to sic days ear
lier than the Super Phosphates.
1t is the policy and purpose of the Company
to furnish the best fertilizer that enterprise
and capital, aided by the best scientific abili-
ty, can bring into market, at the loacest pos
SiJte cost TO consumers

power.
1t is impossible that any revolution or
war can come of any deliberate appeal to
the ballot box. If the people declare by
the election that those State governments
are unconstitutional, and that they desire
their Executive to command the army to
undo what the army did. surely that can
not be termed a revolutionary measure.
But there is small cloud on the hori-
zon. The bill so recently passed by both
Houses of Congress in relation to counting
the electoral votes of the reconstructed
States is, in my judgment, a measure
fraught with danger to the country; for.
as [ construe that bill, it certainly claims
for the two Houses Of Congress the right
to receive or to reject the vote of any one
of the ten Southern States, as Congress
may choose. The Constitution is explicit
upon that subject. It gives to Congress
the right to fix the day upon which the
electors shall cast their votes. There the
whole authority of Congress over the sub
ject ceases; everything else in regard to
the election is entirely and exclusively un-
der the control of the States themselves,
and Congress has no right to reject the
vote of any State where the constitutional
requirements have been complied with by
the electors being selected upon the day
designated by Congress.
Who but Congress is to judge whether
or not the State governments spoken of
by that act was made in compliance with
the act of March 2, 1867? By the terms
of that bill the States may be here repre-
sented; Congress may have already pass
ed judgment that she had complied with
the terms of the reconstruction acts; and
yet that act gives to Congress the right to
count such of the votes as they please.
and reject such as they please. Once
concede to Congress, that right, and the
election of the President is in the hands
of Congress, and not of the people.
That act must have been passed with
some purpose and for some intent. The
act of March, 1867, after prescribing what
a State should do to entitle her to repre-
sentation here. provided that after Con-
gress did admit her Representatives the
act should be imperative: What, then,
counted unless Congress is satisfied. Il do
not quote the exact words, but recite the
substance of the act. that at the time she
casts her electoral vote she had complied
with all the requisites of the reconstruc-
ton act. to be judged of by Congress a.
gain. What is the effect Of such law ?
It is either entirely nugatory. or it would
necessarily give this body the right to
count the vote of one State and reject that
of another, both States being represented
on this foor-a right claimed in the very
face of the Constitution. which gives to
each State the rig hit to choose the electors
in the manner that the Legislature there
Of shall direct. If this power is conceded
to Congress, then elections by the people
are at an end.
