Gentle party in Utah, preparatory to the
coming election. The meeting was large
and enthusiastic. Fifteen delegates were

were pasted denouncing polygamy, church
despotism ard Interference with secular
affairs; praying for the passage of the
Cullom bill; in favor Of encouraging mir
ing in the territory, and the settlement of
lands; asking surveys of the public land
in Northern Utah, and the establishment
of a Land Office at Corinne; asking the

A LAUGHABLE INCIDENT.-A few days
since colored lad entered drug store in
Portland, with what he described as an
lawful feeling in de stomach, just like it
wor full of ish-hooks and angle-worms, y
and demanded "Setter powder" as he
had been advised that would give relief.
Accordingly the Selditz powders were dis
solved in separate glasses, as usual, and
placed before him, with instructions to
pour one into the other and drink while
efervescng. But the sable youth did
nothing Of the sort. Instead of following
the directions, he hastily drank the con-
tents Of one glass aud Immediately swal-
lowed the other. The effect may be
imagined, but not described. The efer-
vescence, which should have taken place
in the glass before it was drank, took place
in the bewildered darkey's stomach, send
ing streams of the frothy liquid from his
nose, mouth, eyes and ears AS soon as
the poor darkey could recover breath, he
cried out in frightened tones: "My
stomach has busted; can't live minute"
In few moments he felt better, and, turn
ing to depart, he said: "Dat stuff may
work well nuf on de white trash, but its
sure death oD nigger."

NUMBER IS.
The Hens IA Summer;

Hers pay. We believe it because we
have proved it But they need care and
good feed as much as any thing else the
farmer keeps The man who plants out an J.
orchard; lets the land grow up to grass and
weeds, gives it the run of cattle, and does
nothing to make the trees grow and pro-
duce-might be expected to say that or
charding don't pay" Aud the farmer
who expects to make hens pay by not feed
ing them, BY letting them have free use of
his own and bis neighbors garden, and By
not providing for their wants, will tell
About the same story. ,a9a
We are satisfied however that hens, Ike
COWS and apple trees, will "pay" if rea-
sonable amount of attention is bestowed
upon them But they must be confined in
Summer True, upon large farm they
can be fenced out of the garden, and given
the range of the estate About barns,
yards and grass fields they do no harm. Z
But we have seen grain crops, when sowu
near farm buildings, so badly injured by
the hens that the amount of damage was
greater than all their profits for the sea-
son. 1t is safe upon the whole to have q
place for them, even on the farm-in vii
lagos and thickly settled communities it is
the only way to escape neighborhood
rebellion. ..l-
Build hen house, or provide special
apartment for their use in the barn or
some of the out, buildings They are q
nuisance when kept confined any where
but in their own quarters. 1t the former,
build it for the hens, not for yourself.
Let it be well lighted, the windows being
upon the southern, not the northen side.
The former admits the warm sun of Win.
ter, which is better for hens than food.
In Winter it is not so much the light the
hens need as the direct rays of the sun.
Our hens have laid all Winter. There
have been but few days we have not had
an egg to each hen, per day. From sun
rise to ten o'clock, A. NJ, they have had
the sun shine, epou them, when there has
been any.
In Summer hers need frequent change
of food, and to have their quarters cleaned
out at least once week Adjoining the
hen house should be yard which they
cannot fly over. The size of this yard can
be regulated according to the space there
is to build it, the number of hens kept,
and the fancy of the owner But howe, er
large or small it may be, it will soon get
trodden over and filthy.
To provide for that change necessary
for the health of the hens, make small
movable coop, about two feet high, four
feet wide and as long as can be convenient
ly handled. Connect this with the main
yarl and let the hens run tito it. Move
it into new place once week, that they
may have clean run, fresh taste of
grass, and new place to burrow in Give,
in addition to good food, sufficient pure
water ~
Lastly-we mention it last only because
We wish it remembered as of more import
ance than anything elsc-get good breed
of hens. The White Leghorns are our
fvorites. III Maine Farmer.

REPUDIATIoN-The Cincinnati En-
quirer, the Democratic organ of Ohio, in
reference to the Democratic State platform
says:
The Democracy of Ohio are now divi-
ded, and only divided, upon the point
whether any portion of the debt should be
paid at all. A large and perhaps a con-
trolling section of the larty, here and in
the West, are for open and undisguised
reputation. Another division adheres to
the old views, and favors the payment in
greenbacks, not par in gold, but grcebacks
worth what they were when the debt was
taken. The diversity of sentiment was
such that it was thought advisable not to
make any distinct declaration this time.

fault when You must find fault, in
private, If possible, and some time
Ufter the sofcnce. rather tbAh at the
time. The blamed are less inclined
20 resist when they are blamed with
out witnesses. Both parties arc
salmer, and the accused person may
be struck with the forbca rance of the
sccuser, who has seen the fault and
watched for private and proper
time for mentioning it. Never be
harsh or unjust with your children or
servants. Firmness. with gentlencss
