Farmers Should Have Fruit.

This h the season to think Of putting
out fruit trees. Ev cry farmer who has
NOT . good orchard should lose no time
In planting one. Now is the time to act
in the premises. The 'sinews of war
the money-shonld be raised to buy the
trees this very spring, to plant. One
year In mans lifetime is good deal
and 1t should not be lost. 1t is a geat
deprivation to lose any single fruit, ever.
II the money Is not on hand, it should
DO borrowed--if it can be-for it will
certainly pay to borrow money to plant
trees. They greatly increase the value
Of . farm; they beautify and adorn
home; they supply the best luxuries of
the table; they give health to the body.
They supply food cheaper than it can
be raised by growing cereals-for when
once In bearing, they continue to bear
during the period of a mans natural
life.
And not only should fruit trees of all
kinds b planted, but every family
should have plenty of strawberries,
gooseberries, raspberries currants, black
berries, grapes, etc. Now is the time
TO procure them. There will be very
great demand the present spring, as
thousands Of immigrants have pouie |
into Missouri aud Kansas the past year,
NIL Of whom should-and the majority
o! whom will plant trees. From ali we
can learn, the demand is greater for
Trees aud plants the present spring than
= has ever before been In the West.
We are glad to learn this, because it is
anevidence that the people know their
interests, and are taking early action t.
secure them.-Rurti World. g.

Deprayed Appetite.

Mature gives the following remarkable
instance of depraved and excessive appe-
tite, in the case of a French soldier, named
Furare "He was born near Lyons, and
came up TO Paris, where his first exploit
was to eat basket of apples, at friends
expense. On various occasions he swal-
lowed series Of corks and other indi-
gestible materials, which produced. such
violent collie that he was Obliged to attend
the Hotsl Dieu, and, whilst being ex
amined, almost managed TO swallow the
watch-chsin and seals of the surgeon in
attendance, NJ. Giraud. Desault, on the
occasion of one of these attacks of collie,
tried to frighten him out Of his gross
habits, by declaring that it would be
necessary to open his stomach, and ar
ranged the instruments. BE ran away,
and relieved himself by copious draughts
of warm water. Soon after he found that
his appetite had already increased to an
excessive amount, probably owing to the
continued irritation produced by these
absurd tricks. At II years Of age, when
only weighing 100 lbs, he could eat "a
lbs of beef in as many hours. He now
entered the army, and, being recog
nized by the Surgeon Major, M. Oour
vile, Of the 9th Regiment Of HussaTs
he was detained for the sake OF curiosity
From the day of his admission he wal
ordered quadruple rations, with picking'
and waste meat; but often slipped int
the dispensary to finish off a poultlce .ol
two. One day he was observed to seiz'
large cat; and, after sucking its blood
left in very shorttime only clean picked
bones, the hair being rejected In course o
about half an hour, like other carnivora
He was fond of serpents and eels, swal
lowing them whole. On another occasion
he consumed in few minutes, repasi
spread out for fifteen German workpeo
pie, Of milk, &C., after which he wa
blown out like balloon. In presence c
some fifteen officers he swallowed, at on
sitting, thirty pounds Of liver and lght'
His insaIiable appetite was, for once i
his life, made useful, by his being selecte
to convey correspondence between Ger
eral Bauharnais and a French Colone
which was inserted in box and swallow
ell; but no was caught and sound
thrsshed. He fell under suspicion
having eaten a child fourteen month
old. 1t is stated that he was OF mild an
gentle manners and aspect After deaf
his stomach was found in very disease
condition"

The canal Debt HMIndIe.

How is it about the canal debt
sWindle, which the Republican papers
so boldly denounced before the Re-
publican State Convention was held,
and pronounced against with such
intense professions Of regard for the
interests of the people in the plat
form Of principles that was adopted
by that body2 The nomination of
General Robert Ii. MilrOy for Treas
urer Of State had the effect Of a
bucket Of ice water in taking out
all the vim in the canal debt swindle
resolution. The nomination Of a
candidate who had been a lobby
ist for the sWindle and q public
advocate for the resumption of that
debt, robbed the Radicals of the cap
ital they expected to make by the
lying charge that the Democracy were
working to fasten that iniquIty upon
the burdens of the people. The Rad
zeal leaders were caught 10 the net
they so carefully spread to ensnare
their adversaries. In a report to the
Legislature, General Milroy, while
Agent Of State, unites with the Trus-
tees Of the Wabash and Erie Canal
in the following recommendations:
"They conceive it their duty, however,
In every report submitted to the author1-
ties OF the State, TO call their attention to
the facts, with conviction that the State
OF Indiana will, at some time when her
prosperity will justify 1T, and she shall be
relieved from the pressure of impending
national interests between herself and her
bOndholders, as justice and equity may
require"
If there is such O scheme in exis-
tenoe as the canal debt swindle, and
the Republican papers did loudly
proclaim that such was the case, Its
head and front is the Republican can
didate for Treasurer of State,
Whose OK is gored this time ?-Stott
Sentinel.
The Evansville JOURNAL has moi
been silent with reference to the
charges against Gen. Milroy. 1t has
demanded, and the demand has been
seconded by other Republican papers
that he meet these charges fairly and
squarely. We understand that his
family Affections have prevented hin
hitherto from replying to the charge
but that he will do so soon. Unit
then we refrain from further com
ment.

HONEST FOR ONcE.-We notice that
" Mack" the Washington correspond
ent Of the Cincinnati Enquirer, is
disposed to tell the truth in some par
ticulars. He says of the recent vote
Of the Democratic members of the
House against the Tariff plank in
their last National platform:
There is no mistake about it, that
was a pretty sharp trick of Schenck s,
day before yesterday, by which he got
all the Democrats to vote against the
tariff plank in the New York plat
form Of 1868. The more effectually
to carry out the deceit, he got dele
gate from one of the Territories to
offer the resolution. which was copied
literally from McPherson's Political
Register. 1t committed the House in
favor of incidental protection. The
Democrats fell into the trap with the
utmost ease. Well, suppose they did.
That tariff plank was a concession to
Pennsylvania in the New York Con-
Vention. It was one of those glitter
ing generalities with which platforms
always abound. and, like the judi
cious tariff, of the Polk campaign,
might mean protection or free trade,
as the reader chose to interpret it.

We find the following sensible re-
marks on this subject in the Pittsburgh
Commercial;
The resumption of specie payments
will result in large expansion of the
circulating medium of the country;
larger in fact than the inhatlonlsts
in CONGRESS have proposed. This idea
may be more clearly expressed by the
use of figures. Should gold go to par,
two hundred millions of commodity
which is now merchandise would be-
come currency, and initiate the circu-
lation to that amount. But then
we have seven hundred millions of
paper currency, the gold value or
purchasing power of which has not,
until recently, been over FIVE hun
dred and twenty millions. But II the
premium on gold is knocked away,
we shall have, with the coin and pa :
Der in circulation, mine hundred mat
lions of currency. The danger under
Shis rate of expansion Is obvious. A
wild era of speculation may be Inau-
gurated, values will go up, and every
department Of trade and commerce
will be unduly stimulated. 1t we are
warned by the past the brakes
will be put down, and the amount OF
paper In circulation gradually and
cautiously reduced.
After the war of 1915, the country
resumed specie payment IN. 1921
money was abundant, mammoth spec
uIations and an imitation of credits
followed until 1925, when the
crash came and the bubble Of re
dundant circulation burst. 1t was
not until after a return to specie
payments that the penalty was en-
forced. It was the same way il
The Evansville journal. [volume] (Evansville, Ind.) 1866-1870, 1870-03-10

Great Britain, upon the wars with
Napoleon aud when specie payments
were resumed. The widest era
Of speculation ever before known
ensued, which was followed by
q great commercial crash, when the
weakening but inevitable process of
contraction came. For this, it is
reasonable to conclude, that the same
causes which now appear to be dawn
ing on the country, will produce the
same results experienced in Great
Britain and the United States nearly
fifty years ago. First, remar kable
prosperity, wild speculation, and then
a destructive reckoning. Only there
should be wisdom and virtue enough
in this country to avert the evils Of
which the past warns us.
