in all new countries we hear of fatal diseas-
es among Fowls, styled Chicken Cholera,
Gapcs, Blindness, Chambers, MegriIns or Giddi-

above named diseases. In severe attacks, mix
a small quantity with corn meal, moistened,
and feed twice n day. While these diseases
prevail, use little in their feed once or twice
a week, and your poultry will be kept free from
all disease. In severe attacks oftentimes they
do not-eat; it will then be necessary to admin
lister the Powder by means of quill, blowing
the Powder down their throat, or mixing Pow

DoCGLAss THE CoLoRED .PRINrRR.-
The Washington Chronicle gives us
the following facts with relation to the
son of Fred Douglass about whom SO
much has lately been said:
Louis II. Douglas, eldests stn OF the
most distinguished representative OF
the eolored race in America, himself a
gentleman, q scholar, and patriot,
having acquired & knowledge OF the
printing business, and obtained en-
plovment at the Compression Printing
Office, apple. for admission into the
Typographical Union. His knowledge
of the art was gained in Rochester,
New York, where for several years he
assisted his father in the publication OF
90 Fred Douglass paper" When this
paper was suspended, in 1862, he en-
listed in the army, serving with di'tinc-
rion, his conduct during the attack on
Fort Wagner receiving honorable men,
ton in.the dispatches of his superior
offices. Being disabled and discharged .
be taught school fer some months IN
MARYLAND. In 1866 he migrated to Col
orada. In Denver be applied for work
as compositor at all the Offices, but
on account of his color was refused 10
all save one, Democratic paper, called
the Daily Gazette.
The Union price for composition in
Denver at that time, as We are informed
was Is. eeuts per l 900 ems; but ~ the
financial reputation of the conductor of
the PAGER was not of the best, and %

his journal was issued in the morning,
while the others were evening papers, he
was promised so cents per 900, and
went to work with the expectation OF
receiving that amount, but failed to get
his pay, as it is stated others had be-
fore He was finally discharged, or
rather left, to make room for white
man, who refused to work with a
"nigger, but who is now e member
os Columbia Typographical Union, and
is working at the Government othce.
The short time he worked at the bust
ness in Denver in 1866 is the only work
he has done in any printing office, ex-
capt his father s, we believe, until he
went to case about ten days since IN
this city. These are substantially the
facts as CLEANED from himself and others.

euuiyocation and an anxiety from which
an assurance was derived. and from
which the most distressful rumors were
bred. A day for public fasting and
prayer was appointed : the President
bctook himself to the consultations OF
religion.
At this day, after McClellan's accept
ance by the Democratic party, it seems
ungrateful that Mr.. Pollard, the violent
secessionist and author of the "Lost
Cause" should be willing to expose
the estimation in which that officer was
hcld and the ridicule which his inca
paci,y subjected him TO at the hands of
the Confedcrates. Says the imp!acable
PollarJ:
While this commander, formerly the
superinte ndeRt of a Northern railroad,
had, as Mr.. Aylett, one of the Rich
mond wits, expressed it, "accu stoned
in peace to the indecent haste of rail-
road travelling, adopted in war the Sc
date tactics of the mud turtle" Rich

To THE SoLDIERs.-To those one
legged. one-armed veterans of the late
war-rhose who did the fighting, while
shoddy politicians stole their little
homes away =; to those who are now
struggling night and day under three
millions of debt, under the weight of
bonds and taxes that have been heaped
upon the shoulders Of the workingmen
of the land. it must be decidedly pleas
ant TO read the iunumerable reports OF
rapes. murders, and outrages, commit
ted by negroes, who have been reduced
to idleness and misery through all this
sacrifice of life and treasure. 1t Is
pleasant to know that such 4 condition
of things in country like America can
be produced at such a tritiing cost, but
we have serious doubts about the SOL
diers, and the soldiers widow, and the
soldiers orphan viewing it in that
manner.
1t is tina. brilliant sheet, the State
Capita Reporter, which thus attempts
the role OF Honest Iago. Any soldier
who has one arm or one le" or one he'd
left. one country to boast of, one flag
to swear by, has and enjoys any or all
of these blessings in spite Of all that
the Reporter and its fellow Copperheads
could do any rensioner who draws his
monthly installment from the Govern
ment gets it notwithstanding the votes
and counsels of the Reporter and its
friends and any soldier or citizen who
has taxes TO pay into the Federal Treas
ury can look at the party which the Re
porter represents and behold the cause
Of his taxation. Perhaps a dozen cases
of rape by negroes have been reported
have been invariably punished accord
ing to the most rigorous terms OF the
law. The allies and clients of the Re-
porter debauche0 the black females of
the South for hundred years and filled
the land with mulattoes. Newspapers
of the Reporters stripe never utter a
word in condemnation of such whole
sale beastliness and crime. Ten thous-
and freedmen have been murdered in
the South since the surrender of Lee,
and W hite Union Een have been assas-
sinated by the hundred F.; and the Re-
porter has never uttered one word in
condemnation Of such proceedings. The
Reporter is one of the wretched apollo
gists for Andersonville, Belle Isle and
Salisbury ons Of the apologists of
Booth and Surratt and Writ one of
the most constant defamers Of Grant
and Sheridan and the Congress of the
United States; and one of those brazen
harlots of the 'Copperhead Democracy
whose vocation it is to lie about the acts
and purposes of the Republican Party
and attempt to cajole and humbug the
survivors of the Union armies into de-
serting to the ranks Of the enemy.
