Radical Rule.

When the Republican party acceded to
power Il promised to " restore the govern
ment To The purity of the fathers" This
promise has not been fulfilled. Even
since the confusion, excitement and excess
OF the war have terminated, the govern
ment has been constantly administered in
a wastCiul and pTOtligate manner. Indi-
Tlduals are constantly and rapidly growing
rich from the public revenues at a rate
which leaves all previous cxtravacapce
entirely Il the shade. The salaries and
perqUisites Of many officers ale of i'm
mense value. The public expenditures
are more than double what they need to
be. \ large class of privileged persons
are living IN idleness on the intert 81 paid
by the government on its Indebtedness,
and comparatively little is doing in good
faItn to pay the debt and relieve the
people from this mighty burden. The
President lives in style apprOximating
u moDaTchical splendor, and the ceremo.
mails and appointments Of his household
resemble the parade Of royalty. Ali this
AZ the moment when the country is en-
deavOring TO recover from the waste and
ruin OF the war.
Step by step with the decline Of sim
Dhcity IN our government proceeds the
increase IN numbers Of the class Of thrift
less and destitute people National pau
perish keeps pace with national prOfligacy.
TINS aTistOcTatic magniicence adds large.
y to the cost Of all the necessaries and
CONVEX fences of life. What the official
rob0er gains, the labOrer loses. Whatthe
Government pensioner takes, the poor
man gives. What the privileged class
demand, the people surrender, each from
his little hard earned store 1t is all a
system 81 robbery, not from the rich (lor
they have the means of self reeompense)
but from the unprotected and unrequitei
poor. TIE sad and disastrous effects ol
this abuse are seen all over the land by
the observant and discerning eye.
The Administration Of the United State,
Government therefore, is now, in ftct

Congress attest this, is sufficiently con-
firmed by the radical admission We have
instanced above That they will scarcely
be modified during the rest of the session,
NAV be inferred from the indisposition of
the Radical politicians to open their eyes
to the progress of political events. The
people have demanded a relief from tax
alton, and their representatives have re-
fused to head them They have demand
ed especially relief from the high tariff,
and the response has come in the shape OF
a deceptive modification, which leaves the
matter fully as distastetul as ever. They
have demanded a final settlement OF the
vexations that grew out of the late war,
and they End that Congress has simply
allowed the unsettled relations OF the
Southern States to remain as they were,
while it has devoted its time to the cor
rupt sbservience of private interests.
The Radical newspapers, which, like
the one Quoted, are forced into admissions
of the incapacity or dishonesty of the
men whom the Radical party has sent to
Congress, will strive to make the people
believe that their demands may be salts
fed by the election of other men from
the same organization. But it is extremely
doubtful whether they can succeed in this
purpose. To elect other men in the same
party would be to approve OF the party
management, and the newly elected would
simply be encouraged to pursue the same
arbitrary and high-handed course as their
predecessors Such journals as the Neac
York Times, the Cincinnati Commercial and
| the Chicago Tribune cannot continue to
| denOunce the management and leaders OF
the Republican party, as we'll as many OF
its strongest principles, and then hope to
| rebuild it with The aid of the same prin'
ciples and men who will conduct them
selves in a similar manner. There are nc
longer the strong ties that held the Radi
| cal party so closely together during The
war and the subsequent struggle for uni
versal suffrage, and the denunciation ha
been too just not to produce total revO
| luton in the political sentiments of al
men who are anxious for such remodel
ing Of Congress as will secure the peOpl
and their true interests at least fair con
sideration.
The true meaning, then, of the New
York Times prediction that the Radica
appOrtiOnment of the next Congress vii
depend upon the closing acts of the pres
-ent session, is that the Radical party ha
seen its most prosperous days, and thai
hereafter, the people will be more Gkel

mere partisan distinction made in an elet

CrOqnet-A New Game, and How to
Play 1t.

l know that, besides the most familiar
way of arranging the bridges in croquet
there are several others, but | have not
seen in any of the books that which am
now about to describe, and which my
friends agree with me in pronouncing the
best arrangement for thoroughly socia-
BILE and enjoyable game.
For this game few poles are needed and
but eight bridges. Pole No. l, or the
home pole, placed in the centre of the
lawn. Equidistant from this centre, say
twenty or thirty feet, or further if you
have space, place poles, north, south, east
and west, and between each of these and
your centre pole place two bridges equi-
distant from each other and from the pole
nearest. Your arrangement of poles and
bridges will now resemble cross, the
arms and stand are of equal length, as per
diagram:

Treatment OF Mich Cows.

unless the boiler is well supplied with
water and good fuel, also well attended

the cow no matter how good she may
be, if she is not well supplied, fed and
cared for, the product will he shortened.
Another very important matter with
COWS is that hey should be protected from
storms and bad weather. They should he

The years 174S, 1854, 1850, 1867, ITS
and 1888 were also years in which the
summers were extremely hot.
In the famous comet year-1S11-the
summer was very warm, and the wine
produced that season was considered very
precious.
In the year 1918 the theaters had to be
closed on account of the heat, the highest
temperature being 80 Reaumer, or Ill
Fahrenheit.
During the three days of the revolution
of July, in 1880, the thermometer stood at
36 degrees Centigrade, about the same as
81 Fahrenheit.
In 1882, during the uprising of the 9Th
and 9Th of July, the temperature was
about the same.
The Seine was nearly dried up in 1885.
In June, 1850, when the cholera APP
peared for the second time, the tempera-
ture was only about rs Fahrenheit
The highest degree of heat that man
can withstand for any heightened period
varies from 104 to 122 of Fahrenheit scale
But with much lower temperature nu-
merOuS deaths occur.

is melted off by the sun, as nothing, per
haps, dries a COW or reduces her milk
more than eating grass with frost on it.
To many of those requirements the gene
erality of farmers pay no attention what
ever. In the early season, as soon as
there is any pasture whatever, the COW
is turned out of the barnyard, to eat what
she may find, and remain day and night
until winter comes; there is also nothing
grown or fed to exc out the scanty supply
of pasturage that almost inevitably occurs
at some time each season. This is all
wrong, and should be remedied by the
cultivation of roots or corn.-American

1t will be well now TO number each
bridge, beginning with that going north
from the centre, |, 9 Centre to south
pole, 3, +. Centre to east pole, ;, 6. Cen
ire to west pole, Z, s. A ready way of
doing this is to take piece of tin IAN old
fruit can will do), and, with strong pair
OF scissors, cut out the figures from one to
eight, leaving little tag to the upper pOr-
ton OF each, so as to hook it on to the
arch of the bridge. This done, confusion
as to place is impossible, except to the
most stupid sort of people, or to young
folks very much in love. And now we
shall go over the course, placing our ball
three feet from the centre pole, and play
ut bridge No. l. going north through
bridge No 2, then to the pole, which we
turn, not strike; and, having done this,
return as we went out, until we strike the
centre pole; thence from where we lie
after striking the centre, we start for the
east pole in Ike fashion, passing through
bridges 3 and 4, and so on, until returning
through each bridge twice, going and
coming; having turned the north, east,
south and west poles, and having struck
the centre poe three times, We strike it
now, for the fourth and last time, for
game.
CrOquet players will readily see the ad-
vantages of this arrangement, the most
important perhaps being the frequency of
collision between opponents and TIE
chances which an unfortunate player has
Of recovering himself by lucky meet in
the centre. This is no runaway game,
but most enjoyable tussle from the start.
Furthermore, by having the bridges num-
bered-and the thing can be done in ten
minutes record can be kept if it be dc
sired to play rubber. A game consists
of twenty-iOur bridges The number OF
the bridge last taken by the loser, doubled
will show the number he has passed. This
placed TO his credit against the twenty
four of his adversary shows the relative
| merit OF the players which may change
character when the average is taken of a
rubber Of five games.
The game inst described will be found
the game for t,o0 players, and such game
was wanted.-Neto York EDeaing Kad.
