relations in st. Croix be now decisively brought
into a freer development; that the expenses for
the military be reduced; and, for this purpose,
to effect or encourage the two Islands, st. Tho
mas and St. Croix coming into a much closer
connection with each other by easier and more
lively means of communication The old state
Of things cannot maintain itself opposed to a
free and easy communication and then st. Croix
will be able to enter upon that more free devel-
opement, which it requires in such a high de-
gree. l can therefore entirely join in what the
honorable last speaker expressed, the hope,
namely, that Government will consent to this
matter being discussed according to a somewhat
larger scale, and that we, ON that occasion, will
come to discuss the future of all the islands

A PROPHETIC QUEEN.

The Queen Of Holland, Immediately af-
ter the ~cession Of V%euetia, and while the
wal in Bohemia was still going on, wrote
to the Emperor NapoIean the following
letter Judy 10, 1866-You give way
to strange decisions! Your prestige has
been damaged more during The last fort
night than during the whole continuance
of your reign. Allowing the feeble to be
destroyed, you let the insoIence and bru-
tally of your next neighbour grow TO X
travagant proportions. You accept a
present, and you don't krow how TO give
a good word TO him who presents it to
you. Iregrrt that YOU think me inter
ested in the question, and that you do
not see the fatal danger Of one powerful
Germany and one powerful Italy. 1t is
the dynasty which is threatened, and it is
that which must bear the consequences.
| say this because it is the truth, which
you will learn too late. Do not think
that the misfortune which overwhelms
me in the disaster of my country makes
me unjust or suspicious. Venetia coded,
you must aid Austria, march TO the Rhine,
and impose your conditions. Let Aus
tria be slaughtered, and you commit, not
a crime, but more-a blunder. This per
haps, is my last letter. would, however,
consider myself wanting to an old and
sincere friendship i'll did not say one last
time the whole truth. I do not expect
that it will be listened to but I wish to
be one day able to say that I did every
thing to prevent the ruin ofwhat inspired
M with so much faith and affection"

FEMALE ZOUAVES.

War has It's humoufs as well as its h0r-
rors. 1t is related that in the French
prisoners camp near Coblontz, two Tur-
cos were suddenly taken i'll. A doctor
came just in time to deliver the Africans
of a little girl each. 1t is singular enough
that the sex of the Turcos should not
have been discovered sooner. They
fought with the bravest, marched to Ger
many, and encamped at Coblentz, but
they had never aroused the slightest sus-
picion Of their being Another
story of an equally curious nature is also
told. When the German headquarters
were at Meaux, King William occupied
the front rooms Of the Episcopal Palace,
and Count Bismarck's apartments were
at the back on the ground floor. The

On Marketing Poultry.

To insure dressed fowls keeping
well, they shout have no food or
l'drink for at least twelve hours before
they are killed. For the same reason,
it is not considered best to draw them
or cut off their heads, as it is the air
that goes inside of the carcass that
principally causes the flesh to become
tainted. If the head is cut off-and
chickens look the best beheaded-it
should be done with a sharp knife or
Ratchet, and then the blood should
be carefully washed off, the skin
drawn forward over the neck and
tied. If the skin Of fowls is of suf-
ficient strength to permit of their be.
ing plucked without tearing, it is
better not to scald them, as their APP
pearance, after little is injured
thereby. The plucking should COM
mence as soon as the bird is dead,
and before it becomes cold. Remove
the wing and tail feathers first, then
the smaller ones. Pin feathers may
be removed by means Of pinchers.
Ii it is desired to kill the .birds with
ont bcheading them-anl turkeys
are most saleable that have the heads
on--a cord may be tied around the
wings, fastening them to the body /;
then hang them on pin, and with a
sharp knife sever the under part of
the neck, or simply cut the large
blood vessel in it, being careful not
to sever the neck bone. In this
manner the bird will die, and no
blood will come on the feathers

THE WOOL INDUSTRY.

Hon. Horace Capron, Commission
or of Agriculture, in his report for
1869, thus discusses the question Of
wool growing:
a period Of depression has been
realized by our woolgrowers during
the past four years, which has been
shared by all other wool growing
counties, but which has been great
ly modified and relieved by the oper
elton of the present tariff, which has
prevented the utter prostratlon OF
this necessary branch Of industry in
the present, aud assured its rapid re-
cuperation in the future. A sufficient
quantity Of carpet woods, not produ.
ced in this country, has been admit
ted from abroad at low rates of duty !;
sutficiency of most grades of cloth
inc woods has been produced at home
and sold at lower prices than when
foreign woods were admitted at NOM
inal rates; and an impetus has been
given to the production OF combing
woods, which will not only greatly
benefit the textile interest, but i'm
prove the quality and quantity Of
mutton in the markets of the land.
Dissatisfied with present receipts
and gloomy over future prospects,
many farmers have sacrificed por'
ton Of their focks during the past
wear. l, is estimated that four mill
ions of culls were killed for pelts ant
talow. American agriculture, in al
its branches, is peculiarly subject t.
periods Of elevation and depression
from the inpulsive action which stim
u!ales over production at one time
followed by panic and abandonment
of the temporarily Improbable pm
suit. The wool interest has of'e
suffered. not merely from ordlnar
causes of huc'ualion, nut more dlsa'
trously still from tariff cha ges, fr'
oucnt and extreme as well as nne1
rcc,ed. l. is essential TO the weliar
of this important industry that IN
nrcsent moderate schedule Of du'it
should be continued without modll
cation.

Farmers, Sons.

At an annual meeting of the New
york State Agricultural Society,
Gen. Patrick made the following re-
marks in regard to the aversion of
farmers sons to farm work:
"Only few of our children are
following in our footsteps. The old
folks are left alone. With failing
health and increasing years many are
compelled to sell out the homestead
and live in village, where it is posi-
bic 10 live alone. Our young men
are showing great aversion to hon
est toll Often, if they remain on
farm, they are more interested in fast
horses than in training steers. Others
engage in tritiing, undignitied occu-
pations. such as selling maps, books,
patent rights or even clothes pins.
They are attracted by genteel ways
and habits. AT the best they seek
commercial adventures, and through
this means sudden and great riches.
Can they not read their fate by
the wrecks Of thousands in the city
Of New York who attempted the same
thing? For ablc-bodied, strong
young men to quit the farm and en-
gage in such triiling pursuits as have
been named, or to attempt, where
thousands fall, in a city occupation,
they should be ashamed. Whenever
labor in any country is considered
dishonorable, the doom of that nation
is sealed. Until the idea prevails
that labor is honorable there can be
no bright hope before us. When we
find country divided into small
estates, and each proprietor labors
with his own hands, we have a happy
people. Under small homesteads
grew up those people before which
the world trembled when they buckled
on their swords--the ancient Romans.
Look at the large plantations in the
South, with degraded laborers, and
you need not ask the result. Coun-
tries are cultivated not according to
their fertility, but according to their
liberty. Agriculture is the basis Of
the happiness of a State, and it is the
most honorable as well as the most
ancient Of all professions"

Woman's rights and female suffrage, for
sooth! What are our country women about
What rights do our political sisters want?
Thank God, we have rights most glorious
the holy right to nourish and bring up oul
children in the fear of the Lord The right tc
educate our sons and daughters that they may
be good men and women. What christian
mother would leave her darling little ones il
the care of hired nurse while she goes about
contending for the right of suffrage? Lei
woman labor in her proper sphere, that o.
wife and mother, daughter or sister, and she
need not fear being oppressed or down-trod
den. If woman does her duty at home, she
will, in our opinion, have but little time to at
tend political gatherings.
What greater honor can mortal woman de-
sire than to be the mother of a George Wash
ington or an Abraham Lincoln?
Hear what the wise man says of a good
woman: ''Her children rise up, and call hel
blessed; her husband also, and he praisetl
honest, don't you wish you had husband &c
praise you and half dozen boys as smart as
their mother and as good as their father to
rise up and call you blessed? But making
political speeches and clamoring for the right
of suffrage is not the way to get them. Better
keep quiet and get husband to represent you
