General Blair's letter Of acceptance is pub
iishtd. lie says be has carefully read the
resolutions adopted BY the Convention and
most cordially concnrs in every principle and
sentiment announced He SAYS military
desrotism has been erected in ten OF the
States Of the Union; that the President has
been deprived Of his constitutional power;
that the Supreme Court has been deprived Of
its jurisdiction, and the writ OF hdbeas corpus
had been ruthlessly trsmped under foot. The
peace. he says. 10 which Grant invites is the
price Of despotism and death. Heconclade es
n follows: The nation viii say the Cons,tu-
ton must be restored and she will OF the peo-
pie again prevail. The appeal 10 the peace
iul ballot to obtain this end is not revolution.
They make war revolution who attempt to ar
rest this quieI mode Of settling the military
despotism Of Congress asserting absolute
war Of that benign system OF regulated liber-
ty left rs by our fathers. 1his must be al
lowed to take lis course. This is the only
road to peace. 1t will come with the election
of the Democratic candidates and not with
the election Of that mailed warrior whose
bayonets nre now at the throats Of 500, 900 Of
the people in the South. to compel them to
support him candidate for the Presiden-
cy, and submit to the domination Of low
race ol semisbarbaraus men, No auaaeity
or misrepresentation can exceed this eandi
date in arms as an angel OF peace
The general understanding among the
members Of Congress is that there has been
some mistake in announcing the message
from the President two days ago that he
signed the tax bill, and il s now stated that
the President has not signed it, but passed j,
by because it authorizes the Secretary of the
Treasury to appoint supervisors with power
to remove officers appointed by the President

Remedy fOr Gapes in Chiekens.

MEssRs. LUTHER TUCKER s. SoN-In
your issue Of April %, G. F. B. wants to
know how it is that on some places they
have 10 gaPes. The reason Of that Is,
the chickens roost on dry floors. You
will find all chickens that roost on damp
floors are subject TO gapes. Gapes Is
nothing but a bad cold, settled on the
lungs of the chickens. You take a young
chicken Wnen II nrsT g6ts me gapes, and
place it IN a warm room, or under the
stove, and It will get well in a few days /;
you must take as much care of il as a
child, when they catch cold. If you let
children that have a bad cold run out and
expose themselves, you viii have a very
sick child Some folks think there are
worms in the throat of the chick; thew
run a feather down the windpipe to draw
the worm out. Il is not worms; il is
nothing but Phlegm that collects in the
wincpipe. If every farmer that has a
young brood of chicks will keep them in
a warm dry place every night, and keep
them from running in the dew in the
morning, be will have a fine healthy
brood of chicks. / have raised hundreds
of chicks, and never lost q by gapes.
Try the experiment and see if | am not
right.
