The Responsibility.

Our Southern exchanges are
filled with accounts of outrages
committed by negroes; and it
is worthy of note that neary all
such outrages are directly trace
able to the instigation of those
white miscreants, the carpet
baggers and scalawags. These,
unhung seoundrels make it
their business to incite the ig-
norant blacks to insubordina-
ton and riot, and then, if dan
ger threatens, they manage to
keep far enough out of harms
way.
For all these disturbances
the negroes, who are immedi-
ately concerned, are far less to
blame than the Radical party.
Ignorant, impossible, and full
Of brutal instincts, they are
made the easy tools and vic
TINS Of those sent among them
for the express purpose of
fomenting discord and trouble.
The Radical leaders believe
that their strongest, perhaps
their only hope of success lies
in preventing the pacifcation
OF their country, and in their
reckless disregard of every
thing except party interest
they are willing to inaugurate
a conflict of races. We cannot
shut our eyes to the fact that
if the present Southern policy
of the Radicals is insisted upon
much longer a war of races will
actually be the result. The
whites of the South have shown
themselves exceedingly patient
and long suffering thus far, il
the hope that the November
election will secure peace and
tranquility over the whole
country, and set things tt
rights generally; but there is q
point beyond which patience
ceases to be a virtue.--[Louis

A German Trust Song.

Just as God leads me, / would GO;
Iwould not ask to choose my way;
Content with what He will bestow,
Assured He will not let me stray;
So as He leads, my path l make,
And step by step l gladly take,
A child in Him confding.
Just as God leads, | am content;
Irest me calmly in His hands;
That which He has decreed and sent
That which His will for me command;
would that He should all fulfill.
That I should do His gracious will
In living or in dying.
Just as God leads, / all resign;
I trust me to my Fathers will !;
When reasons rays deceptive shine,
His counsel would | yet fulfill;
That which bis love ordained as right
Before He brought me to the light,
Ny all to Him resigning.
Just as God leads me, I abide
In faith, in hope, in suffering true :
His strength is ever by my side
Can aught my hold on Him undo :?
/ hold me firm in patience, knowing
That Godmy life is still bestowing-
The best in kindness sending.
Just as Ged leads, onward go,
Oft amid thorns and briars seen;
God does not yet His guidance show
But in the end it shall be seen
How far, by loving Fathers will,
Faithful and true He leads me still

WORMS IN SwINE.-In answer
to an inquiry as to the cause and
cure OF worms in pigs, a cores
pondent. of the Maine Farmer
says-"If the writer will take the
pains to give his pigs q handful
of good rock salt at least twice a
week in their food, until killing
time, | think his pigs will thrive,
providing he gives them enough
to eat. The cause of pigs having
worms is, I think, the want Of the
preventive-salt. Pigs hardly
ever get any saltexcept what they
get in the Stops from the kitchen. )"
