The Washington Riots.

The Democratic papers are making the
most of the negro election riots in Wash
ington. AS taught by the example of men
of lighter color Cuffee threw k-bats,
brandished knives, fired pistols, and,
therefore, it is urged that Cuffee is unfit to
have vote. If classes of men are to be
DISTINGUISHED for the riotous conduct of q
few bad men connected with them, there
will not be many left to cast votes in this
country. We remember very wildly the
time when a mob of white Americans
burned Pennsylvania Hall in the city of
Philadelphia, and destroyed certain Or
phan Homes and Churches belonging to
colored people. Did any one then pro-
pose to disfranchise all white men, be-
cause the rioters were of that color
Later still, indeed as recently as 1868,
some thousands of Irishmen raised a most
terrific mob, which ragged with awful fury
for number of days.. making negro
churches and orphan asylums the especial
objects of their vengeance, 'besidesl hanging
up negro men to lamp posts, whenever
they could seize them, but shall we,
therefore, deprive Irishmen guiltless
of that or any other crime, of
their right to vote? Americans, at Alton,
Illinois, killed Elijah P. Lovejoy shall
Americans, therefore, be disfranchised
forever? One would think from the hor-
ror which Democratic prints affect over
the conduct of few badly behaved col
ored men at Washington, that riots were
never heard of in this country before the
Acknowledgement of the negro. History
tells different tale, however.
We deeply regret the misconduct which
disgraced the elections recently at Wash
ington, but we hold only the guilty parties
responsible therefor. Let the guilty men
be arraigned and punished according to
law. We would spare law-breakers of no
race or color. But we insist that party
which attempts to make political capital
out of occurrences, the like of which have
occurred, and are liable to occur, among
all classes, is conscious of the desperate
straits in which it is placed.-I0zed0 Blade.

A Caution to Merchants

THE New Orleans Delta tells good
story of sagacious country gentleman
who came to that city some days ago with
a bill on highly respectable firm of the
place. The bill was duly presented for
acceptance and q young member of the
firm, fashionable, showily dressed gentle
man, who had cultivated a very dainty
mustache, wrote with gold pen his in
dorsement on the bill, giving his name in
full, thus, j. Templeton Tompkins. The
countryman looked at the signature, read
it slowly, glanced at the fashionable mer-
chant, who was Enthusiastically twirling his
whiskers, and handing the bill over to
him, remarked:
Here stranger, cash this document"
What" Indignantly replied the mer-
chant, discount my own paper, it is a
positive insult"
Wall, can't help it," said the country
man, If you don't, must get somebody
else to do it."
To prevent his paper from getting on
Change, the merchant concluded to cash
the bill, and paying over the money to the
countryman, asked him quietly:
"Why, my friend, do you offer me this
gratuitous insult of requiring me to dis
count my own paper?"
don't mean any harm, stranger, but
l have jest got an idear into my skull, that
when you see a merchant with that har on
his upper lip, and who writes his middle
name out in full, and indorses bills with a
gold pen, you may put them down as purity
certain TO bust up in week."

Six feet apart. For early Cucumbers the
not bed is necessary; but the simplest
and surest way to produce a tolerably
early crop of the best kinds is where it is
designed to place hill, dig hole about
eighteen inches deep and three feet across,
into this put barrow of fresh manure,
and cover with six inches of earth in
the center of this plant the seed and cover
with small box-like frame, on the top of
which place couple of lights of glass.
When the plants grow keep the earth
drawn up to the stems. Water and give
air as needed and if the sun appears too
strong give the glass coat of whitewash.
BY the time the plants fill the frame it will
be warm enough to let them out, and the
box can be removed; but if it should con-
tinue cold, raise the box by setting block
under each corner, and let the plants run
under. The fourth OF July is the time
we always remove the boxes or frames
Always pick the fruit as soon as large
enough, as allowing any to remain to

Auxiliary Crops.

IF the corn crop over considerable eX-
tent OF country is short, and the small
grains are injured, as seems likely, by an
exaggerated growth of straw at the ex-
pense OF berry, it will be well to engage
more than usual in such of the later sown
crops, as may, In measure, take their
places. 1t now seems that the grass crop
Is TO be an exceedingly heavy one, so that
hungarian and Millet will not be needed
Tor fodder except as with their abundance
OF seeds they may take the place of grain.
II thought best to have them on hand, it
Is not now too late to put them in, and
the land intended for corn or where the
seed has failed, may be used for that pur-
pose.
Buckwheat will help the farmer out
amazingly, and may be sown anytime for
two weeks yet. 1t is not the equal Of
corn, oats or barley for feed, but is not to
be desplsed, while in the household and
for poultry it is quite desirable. A patch
OF 1t is good thing to have to fall back
on.
The Ruta Baga is still more valuable; is
not difficult Of cultivation, and yields well
on all the lighter prairie soils, or where
sand is component part, but not prepon-
derating. Now is the time to put them in.
Make the soil mellow; roll it, and use the
drill to put in the seed. The rows should
be from two to three feet apart. The cul-
tivation may be done principally by the
small pillow or cultivator, thinning out
and pulling the weeds in the row by hand.
The common Turnip should not be
overlooked here, though there is plenty
of time to put in the seed for month yet
In connection with hay, turnips are good
for all kinds of stock. All are fond of
them; sheep especially so. Therefore
where sheep are kept and corn is scarce,
fic k masters should provide themselves
with turnips, as substitute cheaper than
anything else. "Ten cent" corn and oats
are better, but such we are not likely to
have soon again. They may be put in
broad cast or in drills, but in either case,
avoid getting them too thick, or if thick
at first for the fly and poor seed, take
pains to thin out after .he stand is Sc
cured.
Pumpkins, or as our English friends
have it of late "Cattle Melons," are not
to be ignored as one of the helps They
are good to make beet, fed with hay and
grain, or even with hay alone. Hogs like
them and will fatten on them. Good
crops of pumpkins may be grown on
prairie breaking. At the East good crops
are grown in connection with corn, but
we believe with our large growth of stalk
and leaf, almost completely shading the
surface of the around, the best way is to
give the pumpkin the whole of the ground
and let it have chance-PraSrie Farmer,

Foxy.

On one occasion, fox having been sur
prised in a hen-house, simulated death
with such exactness, that the owner of the
slaughtered poultry thought that Master
Reynard had overgorged himself, and per-
ished of surfeit, like one of our own
kings. Congratulating herself on the fate
of the robber, she picked him up by the
tail, and threw him out of the hen-house,
when the fox picked himself up and
scampered off. Another time, peasant,
finding fox in a hen-house, aimed a blow
at him, which apparently killed him. The
man then took the fox up by the tail, slung
him over his shoulder, and carried him
out of the farm yard, intending, most prob
ably, to decorate his house with the brush,
his barn with the head and paws, and his
person with the skin. IF so, his medita-
tions were speedily destroyed, for the fox
had only slammed death, aud, finding his
inverted position uncomfortable, took
measures to relieve himself by administer
ing severe bite where his head was
dangling The affrighted peasant imme-
diately dropped the fox, who set off as fast
as he could, leaving his would be captor
in state of mingled fright, pain, and fury
MIR. Lloyd tells us of another fox, who
displayed as much sagacity in getting out
of an equally bad scrape The animal
had been caught in pit-fall, and was ly-
ing apparently helpless at the bottom. A
very stout peasant then brought ladder,
and having lowered it into the pit, de-
scended slowly, in order to destroy the
fox Reynard, however, had not the
slightest intention of being destroyed !;
so just as the stout peasant placed his foot
on the ground, the fox sprang on his back,
then on his shoulders, and from thence to
the edge of the pit, thereby deferring the
intended execution to an indefinite period,
and injuring in no small degree the tenn
per of the man by whose means he had
escaped.-Our Oaon Fsreside.

Thinning out Grapes.

Is THE Importance of thinning out the
fruit of the vine duly considered by the
majority of cultivatOrs? / think not
From close observation, and even sad ex-
perience, the subject, in my opinion, calls
for much more attention than is usually
given. In young vines, this is particular
ly the case.
Such vigorous and hardy constituted
varieties as the Concord may stand it to q
considerable extent, but even they will
eventually suffer- This fault is not only
to be found in the vineyards of the novice,
but can be seen almost everywhere, in
charge of those who know better. This,
then, being admitted, the next question is,
How shall it best be remedied? Shall we
prune so much shorter, so as not to leave
more wood than the vine can carry safely
through, or leave more wood, and then
thin out the branches?
The latter, in my opinion, will be the
best, for by the first plan, we get our fruit
too mnch crowded, and throw too much
force into the young canes for the follow
ing years bearing. My impression
is that when a vine is pruned to
what would have been about right,
the pinching out of every third bunch, at
the first operation, pinching back would
be the method. l would leave but two
punches on each bearing shoot and in
some instances it is better to leave but
one.
We all know that the forming of the
seed of any fruit is the heaviest tax on the
plant. This being the case, do we not
give considerable relief when we diminish
this tax one-third? think we would be
safe in counting on having the same
weight of fruit in the two punches as if
three are left Some years ago we grew
Concord punches in this way, which the
committee, who were to test them, would
not admit to be that variety until they
tasted them. For marketing table grapes,
this is particularly practicable. For in
stance, let one man take Concords that
will average three-fourths of pound to
the bunch, and another have them as usu..
ally grown, and my word for 1t, the large
punches will command nearly double
price, not only among the wealthy but
the masses.-Gr0pe CttJtuTist.

Enameliing.

THE enamelling of female faces and
busts is now branch of masculine bust
ness, and is quite lucrative. A chiropodist
on Broadway devOtes a good deal of time
and attention to this line of trade, while
q man called Sausson initiates his example.
The process Of enameliing is somewhat
curious. The belle who would enamelling
go Is first examined with 8 MICROSCOPE,
and any rough hair or fuzz which exists
upon the cheeks or bust is at once re-
moved with liniment, or plaster, medicated
soap, or SCISSORS or tweeZers even. Being
thus prepared, the cheeks or bust are
coated with a fine enamel, which is COM
posed OF arsenic, or white lead, or other
ingredients made into semi-paste, and
pleasantly scented. An ordinary coating
of enamel will endure for day or two !;
but to render the operation of any per-
manent effect, the coating process has to
be repeated twice week for varying
periods, according to circumstances, and
the circumstances of its owner. The pen
CLING of the eyebrows, so as to render the
contrast between them and the whitened
face more striking, is sometimes included
in the enamelling process; while the eye
brow is also trimmed or shaved, Just as
the moustache in man.
1t costs good deal of money to be well
enamelled. The prices of enamelling vary,
but the average price-list of the various
stages is about as follows: For enamelling
the face to last once or twice, from $40 to
S15; for enamelling face and bust tenn
porarily, from $15 to $50; for enamelling
the face to endure one or two weeks, from
$15 to $25: for enamelling,the face and bust
to last about the same period, from $25 to
$35; for permanently (this is for six
months) keeping the face in well-en-
amelled condition, from $500 to $3.50 and
for keeping the face and bust both in the
same pleasing state, from $500 to 5000.
So that from its very cost alone, enamel
ling should become fashionable.
A married belle of the Fifth Avenue
Hotel, two married bellies of the Metro
politan Hotel, we'll known actress, and
three or four prominent young ladies of
Madison avenue, are, at the present date,
the most enamelled of the darlings of
society; but the fashion is extending. In
due time enamelling will be cheapened !;
and at last, doubtless, there will be en-
amellists not only on Broadway, but on
the Bowery.-Neao York Sunday Mercury.

although wages were low in those days of
gold and silver currency, he saved from

Culture of the Cucumber.

THE hardest varieties-in fact, all the
American or common sorts-will produce
medium and late crop, if the seed is
sown in the open ground in well prepared
hills, as soon as the soil becomes sufficient
ly warm. In this latitude it is useless to
plant in the open ground until nearly the
first of June. Make rich hills of we'll
rotted manure, two feet in diameter-a
large shovelful of manure at least, to
each hill-and planta dozen or more seeds,
covering half an inch deep. When ali
danger from insects is over, pull up all
but three or four of the strongest plants
The middle of June is early enough to
plant for picking. Make the hills about
