FRANK BLAIR has turned fllibuster,
and is organizing at New Orleans for a
raid on Cuba. He is adapted to that
sort of thing. We don't know a man
better fitted by bad qualities and the
lack of good ones for that species OF
highway robbery. Nevertheless we
hope the "mailed WARRIOR" of whom
Frank was so apprehensive last year,
will iuterpose some of those "bayonets"

Legislative manners I'm ONO.

The Ohio House of Representatives
narrowly escaped the disgrace of per-
sonal collision Thursday. A bill for
the establishments of reformatory pris-
on being under consideration. A Mr..
Wolf was speaking against it, when he
was interrupted by Mr.. Ball tho patron
OF the bill, with point Of order. Who
said the gentleman was not contining
himselfto the subject, wss indulging in
personalities, ETC., and he WAS tired of
hearing this perambulating style Of
speech making. Here Mr.. Wolf excit-
edly interrupted Mr.. Ball, telling him
to state his point of order, and not in
dulge in comments upon his (Wolfs)
speech. "Shut your mouth, you dirty
scoundrel - said Ball: "Shut your own
mouth ~ replied Wolf, turning pale
with rage. Mr.. Wolf then went on in
loud and excited tones 10 declare that
he knew his rights upon the floor; that
he would defend them, and that
he would not be put down nor insulted
by the gentleman from Muskingam
(BalD. While saying this, Mr.. Wolf
left his seat, moving every moment
nearer and nearer toward MIR. Ball and
in a highly threatening manner, until
a very short space separated them. Ball
stood in his place white as a sheet.
Members in different parts of the
House sprung to their feet. The
Speaker INT. ThornhilD ordered the
Sergennt-at-Arms to come forward and
maintain order; and for minute or
so it seemed as If "the deadly combat
would be joined" But the appearance
of the Sergeant-at-Arms dispelled the
courage of the combatants, and Mr..
Wolf, going back to his place, resumed
and finished his speech.

GRBELEY'S HISTORY OF THE WAB

for copies Of Mr.. Greeley's history eff thu
late Civil War, entitled The American Con.
fict. Many evidently presume that it il

| diers have written US saying that they
were unable to pay its full price, but were
| nevertheless anxious to possess the work,
and asking US to tell them by what means
they may obtain it.
In Difference to these representations the
publishers of the Tribune have made an
arrangement with Mcssrs. 0. D. Case g.

HOW TO RAISE POULrRY.

A tn Of poultry At only fifteen cents
per pound will bring the handsome
sum Of $500. Almost every farmer in
the country might raise from half ton
to ton every season about as we'll as
not The children, in some instances,
With little encouragement from their
parents and guardians could manage
hens and chickens until they arc large
enough to take care Of themselves. 1t
will not cost near as much time, grain
and expense in every other respect to
produce ton Of poultry as to make
ton Of beef or mutton, when such meat
is produced by feeding much grain. It
is usually more economical to raise e.l-
inaceous fowls than ducks, turkeys or
geese, Is duekliues aud turkeys are
sometime. exceedingly tender. But
chickens can usually be produced with
little care and tridiog expense.
But whatever may be the kind Of
poultry raised, in order to meet with
satisfactory success, it is better to com.
msnes in autumn or tho fore part of
winter. All kinds Of fowls require
protection from tho rigors Of our North
ern winters, ~ protection from intense
cold during winter is absolutely essen

the taskeys arc accustomed to roost 10

And even when they do begin to lay,
they produce only few eggs. But if

fowls Of oil kinds, 90 that they do not
nearly perish before spring, ever, hen
would produce double the number of
eggs with no more feed. When CON-

lent amount Of nutritious feed to keen
them in fair condition, as soon as the
warm weather returns. every hen will
produce one egg a day for long time.
