LOVE UNSPOKEN,
BY G. W. b

They seemed to those who saw them meet
The worldly friends Of every day,
Her smile was undisturbed and sweet.
His courtesy was free and gay.
But yet, if one the others name,
In some unguarded moment heard,
The heart you thought so calm and tame
Would struggle like captive bird
And letters of mere formal phrase
Were blistered with repeated tears;
And this was not the work of days,
Bat had gone on for years and years.
Alas, that love was not so strong
For maiden shame and manly pride
Alas, that they delayed so long,
The goal of mutual bliss beside
Yet what no chance could them reveal,
And neither would be first to own,
Let fate and courage now conceal,
When truth could bring remorse alone

CHRISTMAS IS CoMING.-Yes and Weaverville,
the dullest town in creation just now, is not 60
ing to celebrate. No Christmas tree; no dance :
no social gathering of any kind. Well, we are
not surprised. Times are bad and money is
scarce. Our people have lost all energy. We
wonder that they even remember when Christmas
comes. Probably we would not if the children
did not remind us of the fact. In former times
we were wont to gather together and enjoy our
selves in various ways and, when the "wee
small hours" approached, go to our homes and
retire with consciousness of having done our
duty. But those are things of the past. Money
was plenty then and we felt gay. We are dis
gustcd. Outside towns with not one-fourh the
population of Wcavervile are going to have a
'good time, but we will have to stay at home
and ponder over times we have had and-and-
and-wish it would storm Well-we didn t
know what to write when we started, and if the
readers of this item make anything out of it,
they can do better than the writer. At any rate,
we wish you all a Merry Christmas"

The first step in keeping good stock is
to make the land dry and clean. The next
is to feed literally, and this will insure
good manure, and that in its turn insures
good crops.
1t is all very we'll to say that "peck of
clover seed to the acre is the cheapest fer
tilizer," and that by its free use we can
dispense with manure. | do not dispute
the truth of this proposition. No one
thinks more highly of clover than | do.
But it only tells half the story Glover
makes good food and good manure too.
An animal will take out the food, con-
vert it into valuable products, and leave
the manure behind. Our aim should be
dry, clean land, more clover and rich grass,
more and better stock and more and better
manure.
1t cannot be too often repeated, how
ever, that the value of manure depends or
the food and not on the animals. A raw
bOned steer, if it has the same food, will
| make as rich manure as the best Short
horn in the herd-bOok and the dropping
of Merino sheep living on clover hay
and sil-cake are Just as valuable as those
from Cotswold But this is the point
| We cannot feed clOver-hay and oil-cake Il

| to Cotswold. The former is adapted t.
live on comparative poor food and grow
slowly; the Cotswold has been bred will
especial reference to rapid growth on ricl
food. SO when we advocate keeping well
bred stock, in order to make rich manure
We do so for the simple reason that W
cannot afford to feed rich food to poo
stock, and without rich food we canno
have rich manure.-J. HARRIS, in Ameri

and Stanton under Mr.. Lincoln. Congress
has made the poor so poor at the Federal
Capital, by its legislation and pernicious
teachings as to be compelled to distribute
money to the people; and this is Just
what was done IN Rome-Partrician lux
ury for the great in power, and the poor
conciliated by corn and bread. So long as
Rome maintained the autonomy Of the
States or Colonies, the people were com
paratively free. When the dividing lines
were broken, 6espotism was supreme !;
and so it will be with us. Rapacity and
corruption were the great Roman crimes,
and it is the same with u.s. The old PrHtO-
rian Guard was an incident of civil
war, and the military satraps Of the South
have been the fruits of the same sad pre-
cedent. The old Northern tribes were
| taught by Rome that the gates Of Wal
| halla were forever open to the warriors
who presented themselves stained with
the blood of their vanquished enemies.
| These, we read were converted into
Christianity, but carried their old feelings
into their new creeds. We have just this
parallel to-day, when we see Gen. Ames
made by his own sword, United States
| Senator from Mississippi; Gen. Candy
after ruling Virginia, made the chief o.
a new Military Department, and mon

The IUfirmitieS of Age.

Decrepitude is the natural accompaniment OF
old age, but 1t may be amcorsted and the period
OF entire helplessness long postponed by the jul
dicious OF a healhlul stmuant. Physicians,
fully aware of this fact, usually recommend mod
crate stimulation when the strength and vi.or OF
ma turity have been suspended by the feebleness
and prOsratlOn which are the inevitable results
of declining years. Port wine, gin, brandy and
other liquors are often prescribed by medical men
for aged persons, but the impulse which ferHent-
ed and distilled liquors give 10 the circulation, and
the energy they to impart, Is transtory, un
less the alcoholic principle il modified and quail
fed by the presence of medicinal tonics and in
vigorants OF all the combinations of dihusivt
that have ever been administered 10 the aged anC
infrm. with the view of sustaining their waning
strength, cheering their orOopng spirits and re-
lieving the aches and pains TO which they ar
subjected, none has been found so efficaciOus, -
agreeable and 40 permanent in its effects Hoe

the effect OF the Biters and that of mere OK

actiy the requisite amount of force to the sam

How to Fatten Chickens.

WE make the following extracts from
C0tt0ge GardeRer:
1t is hopeless to attempt to iatten them
while they are at liberty. They must be
put in a proper coop; and this, like most
other poultry appurtenanceS, need not be
expensive. To fatten twelve fowls, coop
may be three feet long, eighteen inches
high, and eighteen inches deep, made en-
tirely of bars, no part of il solid, neither
top, nor bottom nor sides. Discretion
must be used according to the sizes of the
chickens put up. They must not want
room; indeed, the closer the better, pro-
vided they can all stand up at the same
time. Care must be taken to put up such
as have been accustomed to be together,
or they will fight If one is quarrelSome
it is better to remove it at once, or like
other bad examples, it soon finds imita-
tors. A diseased chicken should not be
put up.
The food should be ground oats, and may
either be put up in trough, or on a flat
board running along the front of the coop.
1t may be mixed with water or mild, the
latter is the best. 1t should be well soak
ed, forming pulp as loose az can be, pro-
vided ii does not run of the board. They
must be well fed three or four times per
day, the first time as soon after day break
as may be possible or convenient, and
then at intervals of four hours. Each
meal should be as much and no more than
they can eat up clean. When they have
done eating the board should be wiped
and some gravel may be spread ON it. 1t
causes them to feed and thrive.
After fortnight of this treatment you
will have good fat fowls If, however,
there are but five or six to be fatted, they
must not have so much room as though
there were twelve. Nothing is easier than
to allOt them the proper space, as it is only
necessary to have two or three pieces of
wood to pass between the bars and form a
partition. This may also serve when
fowls are put up at different degrees of fat
ness. This requires attention, or fowls
will not keep fat and healthy.
AS soon as the fowl is sufficiently fatted
it should be killed, otherwise it will still
get fat, but will lose flesh. If fowls are
intended for the market, of course they
are, or may be all fatted at once but if
for home consumption, then it is letter to
put them up at such intervals as will best
suit the time when they will be required
for the table.
When the time arrives for killing,
whether they are meant for market or
otherwise, they should be tasted without
food or water for IL or Is hours. This
enables them to be kept for some time
after being killed, even in hot weather.
The Plymouth Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1869-1941, 1870-02-10

1t would be difficult to name a party
ancient or modern, that has more of what
is called treason" in it than the patriotic
and progressive party which calls itself
Republican. Every day there is a proc
lamation of some new traitor" who
has deserted it. Sumner calls Trunbull a
deserter; Kelly calls Commissioner Wells
a deserter; Fuller calls Dawes deserter,
and somebody calls Bingham a deserter.
1t seems that to tell the truth, or to keep
faith in a solemn compact, to abide by
fair bargain, to demand honesty and
economy in administration-tOd do any OF
these things-is considered treason to
the party, for these are precisely the Of
fences of Trumbull, Wells, Dawes and
Bingham. There are some Republicans
who are nerer accused of this grave parry
crime-whose standing in and loyalty to
the party has never been called in ques-
ton. They are Butler, and Drake, and
Ames, and Bullock, and Porter Che of the
ball and chain), and Stokes (Callcd in
Tennessee the " Calf Killer, and Ashley,
| and Babcoke. These patriots remain al
ways true and steadfast to their party
faithful among the faithless found'-
| while such irreclaimable reprObates as
Dawes, Trumbull, Wells and Bingham arc
continually being denounced as deserters,
who have "gone over" to the enemy.
We once heard Of a flourishing
Sons of Temperance lodge that be-
| came so sadly demOralized by the
| fall of so many of its members
| that when these backsliders were haulep
| up for trial they were found to Out-num-
Der the faithful, and they turned the tables
| by deliberately and formally expelling all
the faithful from the lodge. There are
symptoms which indicate that the Repub-
lican party is rapidly approaching the
same lamentable incOherence. Fidelity
to principles whose fruit is the cruel treat
ment of Georgia and the treacherOus treat
ment of Virginia, the election of Ames to
the United States Senate, and the subjec
ton of State Legislatures to the sword of
a military satrap, requires larger share
of bigotry, intolerance, cruelty and sell
fishncss than the bulk of mankind pos
sesscs; and it is a notable fact that the
better feelings of intelligent Radicals are
continually disposed to revolt against their
party discipline and policy Hitherto,
the ignorant element of the party has
managed to awe the intelligent element
into submission, by violence and intimida-
ton, but this cannot last much longer.
The juSt-mindcd of the party are begin
ming to dare think and speak for them
selves and, when the habit becomes lit
tie more general, RadicaliSm will find It's
| power gone forever.-MtsS0uri RcpuUi-

Facts i'm Stock Raising.

MANY farmers say it does not pay to
keep stock, and in point of fact, they are
very often in the right. l can hardly see
how it pays to keep a wether sheep three
years and six months, getting say 81 for
the three feeccs, and then selling him for
So But think it must be quite as profit
able as to keep steer The same length OF
time and then sell him for $50. Such a
steer will eat as much as eight or ten
Merino sheep. But the truth is, we can
not expect to make anything by keeping
stock of any kind unless We keep it well /;
it must be gaining al! the time If we let
a machine lie idle, all that we lose is the
interest on the money which it cost. But
an animal cannot ne kept idle.
1t must eat every day; and if it gains
nothing we lose all the food and the inter
est on the value of the animal machine
besides. But many farmers not only keep
them for weeks and months together with
out their gaining anything, but it not un-
frequently happens that the animals actu-
ally decrease in weight. 1t has to live on
its own flesh and fat-which is certainly a
very expensive food. Even in the case Of
well.fed pigs, which store up more flesh
and fat for the food consumed than any
other domestic animal; for every pound
OF flesh and fat we get in the animal, they
eat about five pounds of food. They use
four pounds to live on and give us one
pound of flesh And when we have got
this one pound, how excessively wasteful
it is to feed it to the animal and have it
worked over again; and yet this is pre-
cisely what thousands of farmers are do
ing to day with cows, Sleeps and pigs
No wonder that keeping stock does not
pay" But good stock, fed literally and
with care and judgment, will pay better,
all things considered, than any other
branch of farming Good meat brings a
good price, and is always in demand. II
is the Scallawags" that are hard to dis
pose of, and always at loss-a loss to the
producer and a loss to the consumer.
Those who buy such meat get little be
sides bones and water. The poor animals
have had to live on their own tat and
their nutritious juices.
