Hnrd Times.

1t i, = uerally conceded that "the
times are hard" and that before the
winter closes they will be "more So"
The good time coming" when the Rad
ical President was elected, has not yet
made its appearance, and the indica-
tions are that it will not "set in" until
the people have experienced more suffer
ing ard distress. Why is this' The
Radicals promised all kinds of pleasant
and agreeable thiRgs if they secured a
new lease of power. Now that they
have been successful, let us begin to
have some of the benefits and blessings
50 freely promised before the election.

Hester Vaughn.

The women have taken up the cause
OF HESTER VAUGHN, girl lying in a
Philadelphia prison, under sentence OF
death, for iufanticide. The Express,
some time since, gave full account of
her ease, which presents, if ever case
OF the kind did, salient points, eatitling
The unfortunate girl to mercy. While
she was lying under the death sentence,
and many humaAe people were unavail-

condemned negro murderer, in whose
case there appeared no extenuating cir
cumstauces, was saved from the gallows
by the same Governor, in the face OF
p1blic protest.

Meeting Of Vine Growers, Orchard.
lists nHd Gardeners OF Eastern Ohio
and West Virginia.
With pleasure we learn that move
ment has been set on foot looking to the
organization of a Vine Growers Associa.
tion or Horticultural Society, for East
ern Ohio and West Virginia.
The proprietors of the Mcclure House
have generously tepdered the free use
of one of their parlors for the purpose,
and q meeting is announced for Thurs
day, Dec. 18th, commencing at 10 o'clock
A. NJ.
A full attendance OF the vine-growers
orchardists and gardeners of Eastern
Ohio and West Virginia, at this time
is urged for the comparison of views
and experiences, and for the adoption
of such measures as may be considered
important for the furtherauce of the
Horticultural interests of this section of
country.
But few persons even at home, and we
suppose nobody abroad, have an idea of
the extent to which the grape is culti-
waited in this vicinity. The grape in
terest hereabouts is already agreat and
important one, and is rapidly increas-
ing. The number of acres planted in
vines, the number of tons of grapes
gathered, and the number of gallons of
wine made, within a radius of few
miles from our Court House, we believe,
will astonish our own citizens when
the proper statistics shall have been
gathered and made public.

Keycnue Frauds.

Revenue frauds, either in the customs
auties or internal revenue, are now al
most daily reported. The moment that
an officer is arraigned for dereliction OF
dpty. he shields himself behind the
Tenure of.Office law. What great
blessing that law has been to the OFF,
cial thieves in the revenue service.
How many diamond pins, fast horses
and fine buildings they have been able
TO purchase by virtue of the protection
which that law has given them.-VOrld.

Grant.

The report that GRANT had written
TO General SLoCUM, declaring that his
administration would be Conservative,
was woven from such stuff as dreams
ate made of
\ prominent politician in Washing
ton asserts that General GRANT endorses
the measures for an early resumption
OF specie payment, which will be urged
by powerful combination now form
Ing there, headed by JAY COOKE. This
combination embraces large number
OF the ablest men in the Radical ranks.
A letter from General GRANT is now
published in which he explains his no
torious order against the Jews. He at
least does not evade responsibility by
charging ii upon some subordinate, as
the Radical press did during the can
yass. He says:
Give Mr.. Moses assurance that have
no prejudice against sect or race, but
want each individual to be iudged by
his own merit. Order No. II does moi
sustain this statement, / admit. but
then do not sustain that order. II
never would have been issued if it had
Lot been telegraphed the moment it was
penned aud without reflection.
Yours, truly, U. 5. GRANT.
We sincerely hope that his future or
ders and measures will be directed b,
more reflection
GRANT has 10000 offices to dispose o
among his party friends, and there ar
at least 100000 who expect some one o
these offices. The consequence is ther
will be more swearing out than swear
ing in among these expectants.
GRANT dislikes ovations and decline
them. COLFAx likes them and is a.
Taye willing to accept them. The fac
according to the Chicago Times, illu.
trates the difference between O bull do
and butterfly.

The New York Post gives an account
of the leaders of the Cuban insurrection.
The Commander.in-C Chief, Don Carlos
Manuel de Cespedes, is lawyer, sugar
planter, and large landowner. He is
worth 100000 in Bayamo. He is a
man of middle height, bread forehead,
bright eyes, and about forty-eight years
of age. The caliber of Cespedcs will be
seen in this little anecdote: In discuss
ing the plan of the campaign, one Of the
commanding Generals said: Gentle
men, we must state how we shall retire
in case of defeat" Whereupon Cespedes
arose and said: "a people conscious of
its rights, and resolving to conquer its
independence, does not retire from the
field. We must conquer or die. Cortez
burned his vessels; we Cubans will cut
off oil our ways of retreat" In Puerte
Principe every able bodied man is un-
der arms. 1t is also stated that not the
Cubans only, but the Porto Ricans are
ready for revolt and freedom. In Porto
Rico the leader is DR.. r. Z. Betances, a
man about forty-eight years old. Among
the two thousand prisoners now in the
Spanish jails are some of the first men
in the island-physicians, lawyers,
priests, professors, wealthy planters
and merchants"

Butter from Five Cows.

Ephralm Penrose, of Berks county,
Pa, sold from five COWS 1881 pounds
of butter in one year, commencing nth
month, 1867, when they were first put
to pasture. They were native cattle,
indicating no striking marks of any
particular breed, but of medium size
and well built One weeks trial gave
III, III, lot, and two 8 pounds each.
The one giving III had her first calf,
and the two giving 8 pounds had been
MIXED about three months before the
trial. The family, always consist
ing of six persons, and sometimes
more. used freely of milk,
cream and butter from the same cows.
The butter used, they think, was not
less than four pounds week, making
the yield from each COW about 300
pounds. Their food consisted of meadow
grass, clover and timothy, and they al
ways had access to running water. Dur
ing the winter they had as much clover
and timothy hay as they would eat, ana
about p quarts of bran twice a day.
They also had pumpkins the early part
of winter. The stable was warm,
cleaned daily, aud well Uttered with
straw The cows were carded, curried
or brushed all the year,
The above is not given because of the
extraordinary yield, but is proportiona-
bly more than is obtained in large dai-
ries under much stronger feeding, at
least in concentrated food. The care
taken in cleanliness was doubtless of
much benefit. 1t is common saying
that with herses currying is half the
feed;-why then will not the same care
taken with cattle be equally beneficial

ADJUSTMENTS.
Olympic Varieties.


The class of amusements at the Olympic
is difficult to sustain, and the slightest re-
Taxation from decorum is liable to convert
an audience into mob with which gentle
men do not care to mingle. Last evening,
when Lottie Rowland had rendered her
Character Song the audience signifed a
disposition to hear her sing again. The
management had reasons for not needing
the clamor, aud the next performance was
commenced. Kisses and jeers greeted the
performers, but the stage manager, MIR.
White, faced the storm of Kisses and begged
the Indulgence OF the audience to explain
why Miss Lottie shorld not then appear,
and the play proceeded without further in
terruption.
This evidence of pluck on the part of the
manager is to be commended. He con-
quered, and not the mob. The Olympic
under such management will have sue
cessful season, and the entertainments will
not degenerate into vulgarity. Billy Dia-
mond, Johnny Manning. Nellie Whitney,
Lille Beckett, Fannie Auriol and Mile
Henrietti are among the performers They
attract large and respectable audiences,
where all indications Of rowdyism are
promptly suppressed.
