General Grant ana Political Parties
Things to be Remembered.


The New York Times, in the course Of an
editorial, makes the following admissions
There are some leading facts which it may
be well for those who ara so anxious concern
ing General Grants party relations and
probable action, to bear in mind. rhe Re-
o party President, taking the advice oY the
leaders Of the Republican party as his guf-
iclent guide and rule Of action. because he
was nominated and elected by that parity
will do well to remember:
1. That General Grant never was member
OF the Republican party until after the war.
2. That he was nominated ct Chicago, not
mainly because he was Republican,. but
because he had more Of the confidence Of the
people than any other man in the country
g. That the canvass proved that he was
stronger with the country than the party, and
received q great many votes and great moral
support from outside the party limits.
4. That Ids hold on the Confidence os the
| country 10 quite ss strong to-day as it ever
| was, and is not likely to bs forfeited or leg
sened by any rash or reckless action on his
part.
These considerations combine to aive Gene

WEDDING PoTAroEs WITH SHEEP.-
1t may not be known to farmers in gene.
raj that it is a common practice in some
Of the potatoe growing districts to turn
flock Of sheep into the potato field for
the purpose of eating down the weeds,
The sheep will not touch potato vine.
This pasturing with sheep is very advan-
tageous when the crop is late planted
one, so that the hoeing cannot be COM
pleted until the haying or harvesting is
finished. At the growing season tits the
farmers aim TO keep down the grass and
weeds. so that they may be covered by
the cultivator and hoe, when these are
used Pasturing with sheep will attain
this object. Early planted crops, the
cultivation of which is completed in the
carly part ofsummer, frequently becomes
grassy and weedy before the time Of dig
ging, when the size of the tops precludes
cultivation. In this stage the sheep are
economical weeders. 1t is hardly nee
essary to mention that the feed thus Civ
en- to the sheep makes double profit in
asmuch as it costs absolutely nothing,
while labor is saved and weeds prevented
from seeding.-Fdrm and Fireside.

A Manly Temper.

Horace Bushnell, in ono Of his essays
gives the following forcible description o.
the man who has learned to comprehend
and control his own weaknesses and vari
ations Of mind. And what true man has
not done SO?
"Now wise man is one who under
stands himself well enough to make due
allowances for such insane moods and va
rieties, never concluding that thing is
thus or thus because just now it bears
that look; waiting often to see what a
sleep or walk, or cool revision, or per-
haps considerable turn of repentance
will do. He does not slash upon man
or subject from the point of a just now
rising temper. He maintains noble
candor, by waiting sometimes for a gen.
tier spirit and a better sense Of truth.
He is never intolerant of other mems
judgments, because he is little distrust-
full of his own. He restraints the dislikes
of prejudice, because he has prejudice
against his dislikes. His resentments
are softened by his COMBINATIONS Of him
self. His depressions do not crush him,
because he has sometimes seen the sun,
and believes it may appear again. He
revises his opinions readily, because he
has a right, he thinks, to better opinions
if he can find them. He holds fast sound
opinions, lest his moodiness in change
should take all truth away. And if his
insane thinking appears to be topping
him down the gulf of skepticism, he re-
covers himself by just raising the ques-
ton, whether more sane way of thinking
might not think differently? A man who
is duly aware of his own distempered fac
ulty, makes life how different from one
who acts as if he were infallible and had,
nothing to do but just to let himself be
pronounced"

this plant, which grows abundantly in

common, is good substitute for sumac

Canaan Reporter says that company
has been formed in Boston called the
Calef Tanning Association, and they
have advertised fer one hundred tons of
bareback. The consequence is that ev-
cry boy and girl in salisbury is at work
cutting and bringing in bareback and
some six or eight hands are busily en-
ployed in trimming and boiling down.
The price paid by the company is from

THE Power or PREJUDICE.-A story
illustrating the effect of prejudice is told
of "uncle Thad Smith," who resided
many years in Cavendish. One year his
wheat crop failed, and as railroads and
western flour were then unknown, his
only alternative was to use rye -four, in
its stead. He didn't like rye -four, for
it was dark colored and had bad taste.
But at the request Of his family he took
bushel of rye to Ordway's mill, and
left it with orders to have it bolted.
Returning from the village, where he
went while his grist was being ground
and bolted, he, in the absence of the
miller took his bag containing the bran,
canaille and flour, and went home
That night his wife said she would try
the new flour and make some rye cake.
The members of the family were all loud
in their praise of the rye cakes, some in
sisting that they were as white as wheat
and tasted as we'll. But Uncle Thad
would not agree to this, and insisted that
he could not bear that confounded rye
taste.
The laugh turned upon Uncle Thad
the next morning when one Of his neigh
bors called to get the bag Of wheat -four
that bsmistake had been taken, instead
of his own bag of rye -four.
