The organs of the slums, and their feeble imita-
tors among journals respectable, but having
lost their hold upon respectable readers and now
frantically appealing to the slums for sup-
port, continue to tell so many lies in
their present spasmodc defense of the
family relation against the onslaughts of the re-
spectacle part of the community, that it seems
hardly worth while to expose them. Here, for
example, is an instance of the lie, pure and
simple persisted in with an earnestness
that shows the poor liar must think there is
gain in it. In one column will be found the pre-

Preparations for Spring Work.

The present is the farmers time toarrange

ing carefully done depends greatly the sue
cess of future operations. He has the gath
cred experience Of the past to aid him, and
if one or more crops have failed, now is the
time to consider the cause. Has he been I'M
proftably stinted in the necessary amount of
labor Has any other than the best seed

allowed to grow unchecked? Has work been
performed too much in a hurry Have the
most approved implements Of all kinds been
used
Trade and business in the cities have been
depressed the past season, as well as the
prices Of produce in the country. Let not
the farmer be discouraged.
Is the working stock of the farm sufficient
Has there been false economy in the use of
manures Has there been room to store the
crops2
All these questions should be asked and
answered ; recollecting that the most improv-
ident of all kinds of farming is the raising of
half crops, and that poor stock is always the
most expensive, he should map out his plans
for the year 1870, so as to avoid all these or-

with which he has been striving in an I'M

From the Country Gentleman
How | Keep my Hams.

In your issue Of February H. is an inquiry
about how to keep bacon. If you insert the
following you will answer him, and confer a
favor upon your numerous readers which
know they will appreciate.
Some years since bacon was much lower
in Boston than | ever knew it to be, /. O., IS
per cwt. The idea presented itself to me
that if were to pack it in fresh-emptied rum
casks and cover close, neither flies, mold nor
dust would trouble it, | got fresh rum
barrel, took out one head, then put on the
hoops again, and drove thoroughly tight.
Then | put in three large hams, large end
down-then three more large end up. In
this way they pack close, and barrel will
hold from nine to twelve hams or more. As
| wanted ham about every three weeks, |
simply laid an old wooden blanket over the
barrel smoothly then the barrel head, and
on this weight to keep all down and in
place. This was my first trial, and no im-
proyement can be made, unless you use more
than one barrel. In that case, head up as
tight as possible all but the one you have to
open often. The last ham | took out had
been in seven months, and was as nice and
fresh as the day it left the smokehouse.
have never used any but rum casks, but
| think casks that have contained whisky, gin
or brandy, would be as good as rum,
After removing the heads drain them dry,
and the strength of spirit remaining in the
staye and heads will be sufficient to repel all
lntruders These casks can be used year af.
ter year, and be as good as new if headed up
tightly as soon as emptied, and pint or a
quart OF strong spirits put in and bunged up
tightly. One trial Of this mode will convince
one and all that it cannot be beat.

Things Not TO DO.

Don't leave in the fields the stones piled
up in spring after narrowing in the grain, but
pick them up and haul them of either at once,
or in the fall. The longer they stand the
more of an eyesore, bother and loss they are
TO you.
Don't let the vegetables in your cellar re-
main so late into the spring as to become rot
ten and offensive, not to say destructive to
health. Have an eye to them in season, be.
fore the danger is upon you.
Don't plant year after year the same kind
Of seed that has been handed down to you
from your grandfather. There is pleasure
as well as profit in sometimes getting out Of
the beaten track and trying new one.
Don't neglect to repair damage to any Of
your buildings, fences or tools al the earliest
moment practicable after its happening. No
time like the present for doing such things.
The old saying that "a stitch in time saves
nine" is an excellent one on the farm.
Don't turn cattle out upon grass lands OF
even pastures, before they have become dry
and settled after the spring rains. They
poach the ground by their hoofs to its great
injury, and oil the feoi they get is Of yer,
little use to them.
Don't keep In a constant fret about things
that may be annoying or worry about things
you can't help, 2 Troubles ars not ligbtened
by ffettins. The true remedy Is To keep cool
and try TO master difficulties, and NOT let them
master YOU

Barre, which is worthy Of much attention
especially his short.horned Durham Bull two
years old the Goth of last March. His girth
is seven feet and five inches, stands fourteen
hands and one inch in heighth, and is eight
feet and one inch in length. The weight
Of this noble animal some two months ago
was 1855 pounds At that time his girth
was seven feet and two inches. This young
giant is really worth seeing, and hard to beat.
Mr.. Jones is raising some Of his calves, which
are noted for build and beauty. would

ReInpsin1 Fever.

DR.. Harris, of the Board of Health, is q
balmy old humbug-a terrible fellow for
statistics-perfectly innocent SO far as relates
to any incendary attempts on the North river,
but not without bewildering ambition to
make sensations. He has recently made a
great noise over relapsng fever. As the
Board of Health was not organized to super
sede the dispensaries or hospitals-as its
especial province is to guard the city from
epidemics Of dangerous disease-it properly
has nothing whatever to do with relapsing
fever, because this fever is not dangerous, is
destructive to life in very slight degree, is
merely an unusual type Of fever The Com
missioners of Charities and Correction, who
have charge Of the hospitals, have had
patience with the vagaries of this monger
Of pathological wonders until patience has
deprived them of hospital space, and now they
have refused to receive his cases. He is thus
placed in peculiar predicament by being
compelled to recognize the innocence Of the
disease he has so twaddled over; for the Board
Of Health cannot establish hospitals unless the
Governor has previously issued a proclamation
declaring the prevalence Of pestilence, and
to ask the Governor to proclaim relapsing
fever as pestilence is q fancy that has not
yet occurred even to DR.. Harris.

Affairs in st. DOMINGO.

Not alone to Cuba is Spanish insolence con-
fined. In the neishboring island of St. Do
mingo we find Spaniards domineering and
browbeating any and every person who does
not regard things in their peculiar light. Our
correspondent in st. Domingo city furnishes
us with information regarding the treatment
of an American citizen who dared to speak
candidly through the columns of his journal
of the conduct of the volunteers in Cuba
For this he was called to account and cowardly
assaulted in the streets by two Spaniards.
Hostility to Americans and everything Ameri-
can is open and undisguised. 1t is cultivated
by the Spaniards and cherished by almost
every European agent in the Antilles. That
the administration is, in q great measure,
responsible for all this few persons will deny
American citizens abroad have little or no
protection, and especially in the West Indies
is this most evident. No other nation would
permit its citizens to be treated as ours are
Almost within sight of the shores of the United
States these insults are inflicted by the un-
governed sympathizers in the despotism of a
third rate European Power. Something must
be done to put stop to these outrages. The
American people expect it, and President
Grant should see to it that he does not disap-
point their just expectations.

LAND GRANTs.-A lengthy discussion ensued
in the Senate yesterday on the policy or expe-
diency Of large grants Of land to railroads or
other corporations. 1t is well enough to give
lands to great national enterprises like the
Pacific Railroad. The evil arises from dona-
tions to bogus companies, who make a show Of
their proposed enterprises merely to obtain the
land. tits by the land grants that they make
their money, and they are never disposed to
spend it again in building railroads that by the
nature Of their location will never pay.

Religious Revivals Out West.

1t is pleasing to notice in our exchanges
accounts of the religious feeling that prevails
at this time throughout the West. Winter is
the season for serious reflection in tbe rural
districts, and it has been improved to more
than the usual extent during the past and
present months. The Week of Prayer has
everywhere been productive Of the most graft
flying results In the city of Peoria, Illinois,
on one occasion, five churches grasped hands,
and after week or two Of continuous pray
ing ten in all were Joined in supplication
Seven thousand families were visited and spir-
itual consolation impaired with the happiest
results. A special committee of mothers
two from each church-was appointed to labor
for the salvation Of fallen women, with ample
funds to draw from for the aid of any outcast
who might wish to lead better life. On one
Sabbath evening as many as FIVE hundred per-
sons rose for prayers at once. A similar re-
ligious revival prevails in other parts of ILL
nois, as we'll as in Ohio-Cincinnati being
especially biessed--in Indiana Michigan, Wis
consin, Missouri and in other Western States
These are glad tidings coming from a
comparatively newly settled portion of
our country, and are indicative of what
is real and tangible truth-namely,
that thoroughly religious sentiment is
entertained In the hearts of the American
people, and that religion is the bulwark and
foundation of our free institutions.
