How to Make the Farm
. A Y 80

IA \
WE BELIEVE THE BOOK WITH TRE
w above title TO be just the book the far
mers need They do not want long scientific
discussions, but plain practical ln.urm..t on
such as fills this volume. How to make the
Farm pay is just what our farmers want TO
know. If any one by long experience and
careful experiments has really any informa-
ton TO offer the farmers want it. One of the
authors of the above book has been Secretary
OF the Massachusetts State Board OF Agricu-
turc, for nearly twenty years, and every i'm
provcment upon old methods has been made
the subject of careful inquiry. The other
names we see in The preface are those of the
best practical Agricultural men Of the Coup
try. The result is that we have q work with
the latest and most reliable information upon
every subject connected with farming The
different chapters treat Of Drainage Flowing
Manures, Implements, Grains, Grasses, Root
Crops, Special Crops, Rotation of Crops.
Horses, Cattle, Dairy Stock, hcep. Swine
and other Domestic Animals, Poultry, Bees.
Fruit Culture Grape Culture and wine max
ing. Small Fruits, Diseases and Insects, Farm
Buildings, Market Gardening, and many
other items. 1t has also fine collection of
Recips for cooking, &c, and chapter ON he
ordinary diseases OF the family with plain
end simple remedies. 1t is on the whole
most complete work and should be in every
Farmers House.
The book is handsome enough for the par
lor taole and durable enough for genera
tion. There are one hundred and forty fine
illustrations, not mere pictures only, but
instructive and useful TO the cultivators of
the soil. We understand that the agents who
are canvassng in other sections are meeting
with great success and now the farmers in
our own county have chance to secure this
invaluabls work

We owe an apology to the Pas
tor of the Mount Pleasant, Col
ored Baptist Church, for stating
that on last Sunday afternoon,
His Honor, Mayor, julius Cesar
Webber, wife and daughter were
in attendance at the Colored
Methodist Church. Knowing Cen
eral Julius Caesar to be politically
a "hard case We ought to have
known that he is religiously a
"hard she'll" However, We will take
this occasion to say that the Cen
eral and family have expressed a
determination to become regular
attendants at the colored churches.
Different persons adopt different
plans to accomplish a purpose.
Colonel Morgan, for political eff,
feet, united himself to a negro
woman; for the same purpose
General Weber unites himself to
a negro church. Probably if he
had been in the full enjoyment of
single blessedness as was Morgan,
the woman would have been more
acceptable to him than the church.

LES IDEEs NAPoLEoEIENNEs, pub
lished by Louis Napoleon in 1889,
has often been referred to as the
text of his policy. The prophecy
bearing upon Frances future, writ
ten in exile, at q time when the
mere idea of his ever mounting
the throne would have been laugh
ed at all over the world as an alb.
surdity not to be tolerated, is con-
tanned in the following abstract:
zone nation is urged on against
another, and the one is employed
to accomplish the subjection of the
other. The French liberate the
Italians from the yoke OF Austria.
Germany and England remain neu-
tral, for what do they care about
the Austrians in Italy? That is
the first war. When the power of
Austria is broken, then comes the
turn of neutral Germany and Prus-
sia-without Austria, but with the
aid of the Italians. That is the
second war; by which the German
question, the Rhine and Danish
question, the Scheldt alluvium
question-that is, the incorpora-
ton Of Belgium and Holland in
France-will be solved. The third
war will be directed against
England. The object or pre-.
text will be to free the Oppressed
nationalities, the Irish and the
Scotch, as we'll as the colonies
from the English rule-to break
the power of England on sea, and
to dismember Great Britain
Whatever Power can dispose oi
ships-of.war must help. Then the
great Western Empire of the Ma
poleon dynasty will be complete
and the other half OF the world
against which, after she has beer
the ally and the auxiliary, the las
war will be declared"
OF these four foreshadoweC
wars the second has commenced
Whether the prophecy is to b.
fulfilled in It's entirety, only th
future can determine but It's re
markable verifcatiOn so far, pla
ces Napoleon on record for a
time as 4 statesman Of no ordinar
attainments, whatever errors h

NORTH CARoLINA.-Washington,
August l6.-A North Carolina
delegation Of Republicans have ar
rived here to confer with members
Of the Executive Radical Commit
tee, and with the intention of going
further North to consult with Ben.
Butler, Judge Kelley aud other Re-
publicans, in relation to the North
Carolina election. Notwithstand-
ing that the Democratic majority
in North Carolina Is estimated at
10000, and will probably reach 2O,-
600, these worthless propose to con-
test the election of four of the FIVE
Democratic members elect on the
ground Of intimidation so success

also propose to see If some plan

COMING OUT.-The womb ofTime
is periodically giving forth hints,
insinuations, and facts, which serve
the good purpose Of making plain
the inexplicable In history, and
fastening responsibility wherg Il
belongs. The Fort Smith (Ark. J
Herald, publishes the latest Of those
deliveries Of which we speak, as
follows:
Ifall the facts were known, and
the time approaches when they
will be, we would not be at oil sur
prlsed to know that one Mr.. Penn.
berton had about as much to do
with the campaign and capture OF
Vicksburg as any other man
and that the man plan-
ming for It's capure was
done by, through and with
him; and If the officers who had
the paroles for Vicksburg prisoners
printed weeks before the capture,
and the date, July 4, 1868, printed
in them, could be heard from, Il
would be very likely to be made to
appear that Mr.. Pemberton's plan.
ming and Federal gold had more TO
do with the final result Of that cam
paign than all of Mr.. Grants plan
ming, or the planning Of the other
General referred to. However,
time and the future will reveal ali
this. Perfdy Of any enormity never
did and never will lie concealed
forever. Murder will out, and
though slow, justice is very sure.

The developments thus far In the

indicate that the murder was com.

that some hours after performing

riding the safe, he passed iAto

Your Marshall Ney,
Who was 70 dy for the fray,

And very soon got away,
has pandered to the prejudices of

Rats, who, together have tried to
crush and humiliate the people Of
the State. Morgan, one Of his
most important followers, has car.
ried into practice the teachings Of
his master-married q negro; and
thus social equality is sought to be
inaugerated in our midst. No,
