HuSrISo FORTH Cows-Many of our far
mers have wasted years Of valuable time JUS,
because they did not teach their COWS to come
home at night. Any one who has ever lived
or travelled in the country will remember the
familiar Co hos, Co-bos, of the farmers son,
or hired man, as they endcavor to coax the
cows from the woods or the tall grass in the
great pasture. We have had little experience
IN these matters, and well remember how may
times we have waded through the brush and
boys looking for the cows, and boy.like we
thought them dreadful contrary animals. But
We have lived long enough to learn better, and
now think that the biped was the most con-
trary animal Of the two. Boys, We will tell you
o secret that will save you great deal Of
trouble. and it is this: Just SOW few rows Of
corn into drills, where It will be handy to the
milking place, and every time the cows are
driven up at night, or in the morning, give
each one good armfuf OF the fresh cut corn.

be on hand at milking time. Besides this.
they will give more milk, and forget to kick

TAKE CARE OF YouR LAMBs.-The tendercs.
grass Is best for lambs. Hence old pastures
that have lain idle week or two. are usually
selected. In separating lambs, these pastures
should be kept for them. especially if they have
been accustomed to be iu them. This makes
them more familiar and satisfied. The sheep
mus. not be within CALI ofihe lambs; and the
fence must be tigh, so as to bar all egress. A
little salt, wild, a pinch Of oat meal. may be
given to them daily. This will make them
more sonten:ed, and enable them TO grow and
become strong. Especially should this be done

SENATOR MORRILL, AND INDIAN
AFFAIRS.

The course of Senator Morrill, in rela-
ton to Indian affairs is dictated by noble
sentiments, and does credit to his head as
well as heart. His recent speech in favor
ofhumane treatment of the Indians is what
the people of Maine, knowing his charac-
ter, were prepared to expect. 1t breathes
honor and kindness to the red men in
every line, and is characterized by a grasp
and knowledge of the subject that evince
care and thoroughness in the study of it.
The same ideas of justice to a degraded
race and advancement of humanity which
led Mr.. Morrill, to become Republican,
impel him to advocate measures for the
amelioration and improvement of the con
dition of the Indians. The New York
Tribune Of Saturday echoes the prevailing
sentiment in the following article
1.-The friends of justice and humanity
throughout the country have reason to eX-
press their admiration of the way in which
Senator Morrill, has recently defended the
rights of the aboriginal population of the
Far West Mr.. Morrill, has evidently stud
led the question in all its points and bear
ings. II arguments based on justice are
not sufficient, he brings forward argu-
ments based on cost and expenditure.
He shows what a fearful price we pay for
maltreating and cheating the Indians. He
shows that during the last seven years the
military service ON the frontier has cost
the Government one hundred and forty
millions Of dollars. He argues that it is
time for the American people to think Of
these things, and to see if there cannot be

LETTER FROM PORTLAND.
PORTLAND, June 9th, 1870.

PORTLAND, June 9th, 1870
wrote you from here, a long time certainly
between sentimental young people who do not
quite understand each other, but not great
matter between us who are used to the devious
ways of newspaper people and know time
and cares press sometimes. And, then, we
are getting close upon the time when this
community is to be convulsed by the awful
contest between Hersey and Perham for
Governor, Lynch ''or any other man for
Member of Congress, and other things both
great and small that sorely interfere wi tn
ones high resolve to ''write often and long
letters, YOU know; - indeed l only get time
to do so much as this little letter by taking
from the allotment for sleep | made when
was Younger and had more leisure than now.
And then again Ct like to abound in reasons)
there is not much to write about 1t is hot
and dry, country folks and city folks-unless
the latter have Sebago and length or two
of hose-alike complain of very unusual
drought, which means very likely, that they
have really known many just such but don't
choose to hunt them up now. OF course there
is no summer travel yet and consequently no
change in local affairs here. Nor is there
prospect of anything new in the way of
summer items, except perhaps the new
Steamer and Stage lines between here and
the upper Saco valley and the mountains, put
on and inst begun to run, by Hon. {. +.
Gibbs of Bridgton, which promise to rev.
olutionize the summer travel this season so
far as that general direction is concerned.
In politics, affairs have settled down so
nearly between Hersey and Perham for Gov
ernor, there is really no great popular de-
monstrative interest, but rather a quiet sense
among those accustomed to pass upon these
things If you should ask me who will COM
mand the most votes for Governor in this
county should say Perham, but | may be
mistaken. At present the canvass is largely
one of personal kind and it is impossible to
tell who will do this with the most thorough
ness.
1t is growing warm among the friends OF the
various Congressional aspirants from this
district, and looks now as though it might go
to York Co. 1t will most certainly if there
shall be any great effort to unite the York Co.
people, and it is even now limited that Mr..
Lynch may withdraw before the time comes.
If he does it will be in favor of Judge Tapley
probably. The friends of Hon. N. G. Mar
shall have begun some sharp and systematic
work for him, and considering his late enter
ing upon the canvass he is proving himself
very strong, and should say that he could
command as many votes in Cumberland Co.
as any other man. Gen. Wentworth's support
ers are also hopeful, and he certainly has
more strength than has heretofore been ac-
corded to him. am inclined to think that
Mr.. Goodwins strength has been overesti-
mated.
Perhaps another week may better define the
status of matters above limited at, hut have
given you what seems to me now to be tar
estimate of the chances, well knowing how
ever, that it is bad year for making states.
Yours hurriedly, CosMoroLirr.

The Camden Herald says the citizens of
Rockport were considerably surprised, a few
days ago, at the discovery of awell made hut
constructed of boughs and brush, upon the
western side of the village, containing a
wagon load of crockery, preserve jars, and
many other articles of household ware.
Upon investigation, it turned out that the
place had been for month or more the
rendezvous of ten or twelve urchins, rang
ing from six to twelve years, who had made
raid after raid upon the house OF Capt. Auns-
bury, who is absent at sea, till they stripped
1t of crockery and everything edible, includ-
ing some dozen or more jars of choice pre-
serves. Nor were their depredations confined
to this house, but other dwellings were levied
upon though none to so great an extent. The
young rogucs had all the paraphernalia for
cooking, and no doubt had many a jolly time
feasting upon Holsters, cake, pies, preserves,
jellies and such other proyender as they
could lay their hands on. Fortunately their
wicked career was nipped by one of them
who thought he had been ill-used in divi-
sion of spells turning traitor and 'blowng."
A good deal of castigation by indignant par
ents took place in Rockport on the evening OF
the discovery

vessels up. Mr. Loring, the master builder
has been in this business for thirty years, and

An extensive confiagration ragged in Con-

about one o'clock p. NJ, and spread with
alarming rapidity through the richest quarter
of the city, The flames were discovered in
an old building in Pera, on the North side of
Golden Horn. A strong wind was blowing
at the time, and the fire quickly communicated
to the adjoining buildings. The efforts of the
futile and in a few hours the residences of the
English, American and Portuguese Ambassa-
doris and Consulates, Naom theatre, many
churches and mosques, thousands of houses
and the richest stores and shops in the city
were reduced to ashes. The loss of life by
the falling of walls was fearful. 1t is estima-
ted that at least thirty people were killed or
injured by this cause alone. The loss is in

fire was checked.

some wiser policy discovered than that
which has heretofore been enforced. we
trust that Senator Morrill,, who has lately
been the leading champion OF Indian
rights in Congress, will boldly assume the
sponsibilities of this position. He will
be supported by a very powerful public
sentiment. The people now realize more
keenly than ever before that we have 9th
er relations to the Indian beside that of
his butcher. The Piegan massacre was
one of the most effective means-bloody
means though it was-of rousing the pub
lie conscience, which has found express
sion lately through the Indian Commits
sion, the Peace Convention, the Quaker
meetings, and in other ways. The mis-
sion of the Sioux Chiefs to Washington is
the Indian response to this popular desire
for peace and justice. We earnestly hope
that these movements may result in the
establishment of a Christian policy toward
them for the guidance of our Govern
ment."

It's late issues:
"ON TO TENNESSEE. Everyt. ing
seems to Indicate that the German elc,
ment Of this great republic is finding n
new center Of gravity.
"Accorling to uniform reports the
German immigration Of late is With a
decided preference turning toward the
State of Tennessee, where, in the more
prominent cities, as Memphis, Nash
vile, Knoxville, Jackson, Murfreesbo-
70, Humboldt, etc, considerable num-
bers OF their countrymen are to he met
with all eady.
Three important and reliable com
panes are occupied in directing the
tide of immigration to different sec
tons of the State, and in providing
employment and situations for the i'm
migrants; the latter have purclhs d
already $4,000 acres ofland, principal
~ in the counties of Lawrence, Lewis,
and Giles. Over three hundred Ger
man farmers and mechanics, with their
families, have already settled in those
counties, and it is to be expected that
the German nationality will soon form
an important element Of the popula-
ton, and that Tennessee will have more
inhabitants of German origin than any
other of the Southern States, with the
exception of Texas.
1--WE cannot but congratulate those
of our countrymen who have selected
Tennessee for their homc, for the soil
almost throughout the State is rich
