In this count we have not included Ten
nessee. 1t will be seen from the foregoing
that the Republicans not only car
ried twenty-five out of the twenty-five
States, but carried them by seemingly ir-
reversible najorities, and that they had a
majority of one hundred and ninety-two of
the electoral votes. The defeat to the De-
mocracy was most disastrous. 1t took
courage to believe that the Democratic
party would ever again in earnest contest
with the Republican party for supremacy
in the administration of the Federal Gov
ernment, and yet before we have fairly en-
tered upon another Presidential contest
this Republican party, which swept the
country in 1864 as with hurricane, stands
irresolute anu intimidated before the Dem
ocratic party. All the indications point to
the nomination of Hon. GEORGE 81. PEN-

IL Is against this man that the Republican
managers fear to run an acknowledg ged Re-

principles of the Republican party
Nothing can be palmer, and it requires no
mathematical demonstration to make il
plain, than that if the Republican party
had been faithful to the people, to the Con.
stitution and to the Union, they would moi

Cheaper to Feed Than TO Fight The
Indians.

General ROUSSEAU saw several parties of
Indians in his trip over the continent,
which he made in seventeen days, and in
response to the summons to present him
self at Washington and testify in behalf of
the President, and he gives it as his opinion
that it will be cheaper for the Government
to feed than to fight the Indians. That's
true; but, then, what is to become of those
patriotic individuals, the contractors, who
make fortunes out of Indian wars?

MEssRs. ED1ToRs.-I noticed in Dec,
No. of the Advertiser, one of your cor,
respondents advised feeding grain the
first thing in the morning and letting the
horses have what hay they wanted i'm
mediately after. l tried that plan one
winter thinking that after their mess the
horses would eat less hay. l was not
quite suited however.
The grain did not seem to be of much
benefit, and I came to the conclusion
that the hay crowded the grain through
the stomach before it was digested.
So I changed my plan and have since
fed the coarse food first with much bet
ter result.
NY horses are kept principally upon
a mixture of cut hay and straw with
grain in proportion to amount of work L
want them to do. | wet my messes with
hot water, in cold weather, because it
prevents ice accumulatingsin the mixing
tub, softens and improves the straw and
hay, and the mess will not freeze before
the horse has time to eat it. All the dry
fodder my horses get, is enough to keep
them busy while the water is heating on
the kitchen stove in the morning, and
the same when they come in at night.
Query-Will it benefit a colt less than
a year old, to curry him frequently ?
Ans. yes. Yours truly
r. S. HINMAN.
