Cheap and Good Smokehouse.

A Western New York farmer publishes
his plan of q small cheap, and good smoke
house, which, as it may contain some
practical hints to our readers, we append:
No farmer should be without a good
smokehouse, and such a one as will be
fre-proof and tolerably secure from thieves.
Fifty hams can be smoked at one time in
a smokehouse seven by eight feet square.
Mine is six by seven, and Is large enough
for most farmers I first dug all the
ground out below where the frost would
reach, and filed it up to the surface with
small stones. On this I laid my brick floor,
in lime mortar. The walls are brick, eight
inches thick, and seven feet wide. The
door should be made of wood and lined
with sheet iron. For the top I put on
joists, two by four, set up edgewise, and
eight and half inches from centre to CEN
tre, covered with brick, and put on heavy
coat of mortar. I built small chimney
on the top in the centre, arching it over
and covering IL with single roof in the
usual way. An arch should be built on
the outside. with a small iron door to shut
it up, similar to stove door, with a hole
from the arch through the wall of the
smok ehouse, and an iron CRATE over it
The arch is more convenient and better
to put the fire in, than to build fire in
side the smokehouse, and the chimney
causes draft through into the smoke
house. Good corncobs or hickory wood
are the best material to make smoke for
hams. The cost of such smokehouse as
I describe is about 500.

Deep Flowing,

In addition to the advantages that We
have often before stated in our papers in
the Enquirer, of deep plewing, it remains
for Us to consider its vast importance in
times of great drought.
M Dalton, of Ell; land, has proved that
cubic foot of earth may contain seven
inches Of water in depth, and that it may
part with one-half OF this water and not be
too dry for supporting vegetation. He
used cylindrical vessel ten inches in
diameter, three feet deep, filled with
gravel, sand and soil. having discharge
pipe at the bottom, by which to measure
the quantity of water that ran off, and
which gave perfect drainage, the top of
the soil being covered with grass, the whole
bnried, SO that the top was even with
the ground, shows that earth that is
moderately moist will take up three
inches of water without carrying it be-
yond the point of saturation. This
amount had in the preceding dry month
been taken up by the plants and evapo-
rated, and, without making the soil too
dry, had SO drawn upon it that it could
imbibe three inches that fell in four days.
Land plowed only six inches deep holds
only one and half inches of water, sub
iect to the use of vegetation, if no account
is made of water rising up through the hard
earth beneath. Ten days of dry weather
in June, July or August, will tell injuri-
ously on plants that have only six inches OF
earth beneath them from which they can
draw moisture ; but give the plants three
feet las in Mr.. Dalton's experiment. of mel
low earth, and there would be nine inches
in depth of water for the use of these
plants-su sufficient to mature any crop our
farmers raise, without one additional show
er after the first day of June.
Mellow earth holds water, and the
larger and deeper the reservoir, the better
guaranty against the injurious effects Of
dry weather.-Gincinnati Enquirer.

RICHMOND, Jan. 2-P. III
For two days past conference Of some Of the
leading men in the State has been in session
here. Among those in attendance are Hon. A. Fl.
Il. Stuart, Of Staunton, Hon. Thos. s. Flournoy,
formerly Wing candidate for Governor, John l..
Marye, Jr., the present Conservative candidate
for Attorney General, Wydham Robinson, for
merry (Whig) acting Governor of the State, Geo.
". Boiling and James e. Johnson, former Whig
Senators, Frank G. Rufin, Gen. John Echols, W.
T. Suthcrlin and others.
Last night after midnight they agreed on
preamble and resolutions which set forth that,
while tho people Of Virginia do not believe that
the negroes, III their uncducated condition, arc
as yet fit for suffrage, yet, in view of tho express
sion Of the public opinion in tho recent national
election, and i'll the hope of restoring harmony
and aniOn, they are willing to accept universal
suffrage coupled with universal amnesty.
a committee of nine was appointed to- visit
Washington and urge Congress to legelate so as
to secure these to the people of tho State. Tho
comrnittoo is composed Of \. II. II. Stuart, Wyd-
ham, Robertson j. j. Baldwin, Jas. Neeson, W.
Y. Sutherlia, Jno. l.. Maryc, DR., j. L. Slaughter,
James F. Johnson and w. L. Owen.
A resolution was adopted recommending the
people of the State to hold a Convention on the
10th Of February, in Richmond, ito receive the
report Of the committee and arrange for the
canvass.
This conference is tho result of movement on
the part of the 500 Something's" as distinguished
from the "Do Nothings," the former desiring to
make some advance towards meeting the recon-
struction acts, and to averting the disabilities,
test-oaths, &c, Of the new Constitution, and the
latter believing that the people of the Sta te
should, under no circumstances, sanction negro
suffrage, which they believe to be disastrous and
degrading.
r. W. Hobson, Ex-Deputy Collector of Internal
Revenue in Danv4lle, Va, District, was brought
here tonight, charged with defrauding Revenue,
by not accounting for $4,000 received by him.
He was bailed in $4,000 to answer.

The Little Game

Subioined arc the official returns of the
vote on the late Presidential election in
thirty-two out of the thirty-three States
participating. In total of 5,622. 1873, it
will be seen that Grants majority is but
334. .S69, and how even that meagre result
was obtained will appear by a glance at
Tennessee and Missouri, where white men
were disfranchised by wholesale, and look
at the reconstructed States, where the
Grant vote is made up by ignorant negroes
who were but yesterday in all the g barba
rism of slavery" When anybody ventures
to talk about the peoples choice, will of the
nation, heroic leader, and so on, lead that
madman to the figures here shown. and if
as gross and base and wicked theft and
robbery as disfgures even the party of
moral ideas can PIT him il his right mind,
these figures will do the work. Will of the
people, indeed ! Why, the thing in the

garroting, as, in its essence, it is mixture

Car Filled with Passengers Hurled over
an Emban kment in the Night.
The Dubuque Iowa Times of December
"a says:
Tuesday nights eastern-bound train on
the Sioux City road, Conductor Chris.
Doherty, comprised of baggage car, two
passenger and five laden freight cars, met
with quite an accident about half-past
o'clock A. NJ, one and half mile this
side of Farley, resulting from broken
rail. The engineer felt it as the locomo-
tive passed over it, and moment after the
rear passenger car was rolling over an en-
bankment forty feet high. Fortunately
the growth of young timber checked the
violence of the fall, or great loss of life
must have ensued. So great was the force
with which the car was thrown from the
train that it carried away the rear platform
of the car which preceded it.
Both ends of the car thrown off were
wreck and the scene -7ithin it beggars de-
scription. There were, it is said, some
thirty passengers in it at the time of the
accident, and the capsizing of the car threw
them over and among each other with
confusion better imagined than described.
The stove was hurled from its place, and
one man thrown upon it, burning HIM
severely, and another had the misfortune
to have it rolled on top of him, bruising,
but not burning, his person. AS soon as
the passengers and attaches Of the train
could hasten to the rescue they did, expec-
ting to find the dead and dying on every
hand, and were surprisedly glad to find
that not one was even dangerously in
iured. The car was fred by the stove, and
the report current is that it was totally
consumed after the leaving of the train.
We have gathered part of the names of
those who were on the unfortunate car,
noting with each other their injuries J.
M. Hart, Elm Springs, Butler county, arm
burned; G. J. Reed, special reporter of
this paper, face badly cut and body con-
fused ; James West, Chicago, cut on the
head lady name not given), face and
person cut while the following were more
or less cut or bruised Daniel B. Clapp
and children, II. Ehlen, f. Tuttle, J.
Hoehpier, NJ. Westcott, Ell. Chaprell, VIM.
Lamb. G. Davis, A. Grey, 81. NJ. Elicit
and children, and j. Fl. Henry.
The passengers on the trains said Con-
ductor Doherty and the baggage master
conducted themselves with much presence
of mind, and made themselves master of
the situation at once.
It is possible that this accident may have
occurred from broken wheel on a freight
car which came in over the road in a train
the night previous. 1t is believed that
this wheel pounded the rails from beyond
Farley to Dubuque or the inference is
such, as the wheel came in badly broken,
and party on the train said he was mott
fed that he was carrying ''tlat wheel :"
from, We think, Anamosa.

Albert III. Winters, a resident of Cincin-
natl, Ohio, enlisted in one of the Ohio
regiments early in the beginning of the war,
and while sick in a hospital at Louisville,
KY, received from an agent in the SAM
tary Commission pair of stockings, one
Of which contained :lip of paper giving
the makers name and address, and request
irg the one into whose possession the
stockings should come to enter into a cor
respondence with her.
Winters, as ho grew better, found time
hanging heavily on his hands, and for las
he expressed it} mere fun wrote the young
lady. In due course of time he received a
letter from her couched in ladylike and
pleasing terms. and young Winters resolved
on continuing the correspondence. Letter
after letter was received and sent, and
finally photographs were exchanged. This
led to deeper resolve on Winters's part,
and just about the time the war closed he
sent formal proposal of marriage ; which
was as formally accepted.
The time for the ceremony was set, but
it appears that in this as we'll as in many
other cases the course of true love was not
destined to run smoothly. Some envious
person, learning of the correspondence and
it's result, wrote the lady that Winters was
anything but the model young man that
she supposed him to be-in short, that he
! was already married and the father of q
happy and interesting family of three chill
dren.
This rather staggered the lady, and she
wrote Winters about it. He, it appears,
was too proud to deny anything, replying
that if she loved him as she said she did
| she must trust to his honor and honesty,
| which she agreed to do for time at least,
or until she could become better satisfied
| upon the point. In the meantime the day
appointed for the wedding had passed, and
another (remote year, was fixed upon.
For some cause, when the time was up,
an extension was asked by the lady, and
agreed to by Winters. Her letters sud-
denly began to grow less frequent and de-
cidedly less affectionate, and the perplexed
lover decided upon going to her home to
see what was the matter. On his way to
the depot the carriage he was in met with
an accident. Winters was thrown out, and
sustained compound fracture of the right
leg.
This of course prevented him from car
rying out his plan for several months, and
when he got able to be about had about
made up his mind, as he had received no
word from his afianced during his sickness,
| that he would seek elsewhere for wife,
Immersed in business, he partially ban1shed
her memory from his heart but it seems
fate had ordained that their paths, though
diverging for time, should run together
again, and that they should unite their for.

visit Cleveland on business, and while
talking to friend at the Union depot he
recognized the original Of the aluost-for

Grapes I'm Los Angeles County, California.
It is stated on good authority that the
vintage of Los Angeles county will this year
produce one million and a half gallons of
wine, to make no account of the value of
table grapes shipped from there to San
Francisco and other markets. This wine
will average at least half dollar per gal
lon. Los Angeles will, therefore, realize
$3.50, 900 from her wine product. Half of
this is said to be from the Anaheim vine
yards. Probably the entire area of land
from which this wine has been made does
not exceed 5000 acres. The county of
San Joaquin, from 100, 900 acres of the best
average wheat land in the State, will ag
gregate 1900, 600 bushels of wheat, worth
at 81 81 per GENITAL, (the average price this
year, just about 81 per bushel, or an ag-
gregate of So, 900, 900. From these figures
it appears that about 81, 900 acres in grapes
will yield as much in value, in wine alone,
at fifty cents per gallon, making no account
of table grapes or brandy, as 100000 acres
of the best wheat land cultivated in wheat.
Acre for acre, the advantage is nearly five
to one in favor of grape culture.

LO! The Poor Negro

A pitiful scene was presented night before
last on Gravier street, between Camp and
Magazine. An ejectment for rent had
taken place. Piled en- nadSSe in the street
were the few poor articles of furniture and
bedding that had served to furnish tho
abode Of poverty. Crouched against the
steps was an old negress who bitterly be-
moaned her fate, and sadly bewailed the
disposal of her household goods. A few
fragments of charcoal glimmered in q
broken furnace, and as the unfortunate
stretched her bony fingers forth to catch
their feeble glow, sbo seemed the very
literal personification OF BLACK De-
spair." Her wailing cry God help the
poor. was swept back to her by the mock
ing blasts. FOOLISH one God helps those
only who help themselves And fyou and
your race looked to your true interests this
had not happened. But You alicnated
ourselves from your real friends and
tlned the ranks OF their enemies. Now
.aat you have raised your falsehearted
leaders to place and prosperity. they leave
YOU to starve, with the streets for home.
Those who might, even now, out OF old
regard and sheer compassion, be inclined
to aid you, have been dnped by kuaves
and made the tools to work the ruin of
honest men, may be wofully bitter, but
may bring with it better knowledge for
future guidance.
