the language of the negro. To do this
successfully one must not understand the

must IN some degree enter into the train
OF thought of the "colored spokesman" {"
Mr.. Julius Caesar Hannibal, in his lectures
IN Black Diamonds" is an adept in negro
thought and phraseology. He has caught
the spirit and the manner exactly; the
tendency to all big words, and the skill to
select those which sound like the originals
after which they are copied. but are in
meaning no more like them than chalk is
to cheese. In this "discord" about "De

Recent examinations of samples of Lon
don butter show that the most diabolical
adulterations of this important article of
family use is largely practiced in England.
At recent test, out oftwenty-six samples
fifteen proved to be adulterated. High
price is no security for genuineness, butter
selling at A cents per pound being found
to be adulterated with melted fat and mang-
anese. One IsS1don firm alone sells eighty
tons of animal fat, melted down, whitened
and refined for adulteration purposes. And
this fat is supposed to be extracted from all
kinds Of animals And it is shown that
what these INSCRIPTIONS dealers sell as
prime conhtry bnttes, for which an iex-
ira price is chargsd. is quite impure Z
Though actually coming from the country
a great portion ofthe material used IN these

factories. Chloride of calcium, silicate OF
soda. perlnanganate of potash, starch,
mashed potatoes, besides4allow, suet boil

able compound that the humbugged people
spread upon their bread, and otherwise
consume, under the delusion that they are
swallowing the purest production Of the

IIonesty the best POLICY,

One day the Duke of Buccleuch, a
Scotch nobleman, bought a cow in the
neighbOrhood of Dalkeith, where he lived.
The COW was to be sent home the next
morning Early in the morning the Duke
was taking walk in q very common dress
As he went along he saw a boy trying to
drive a COW to his residence. The cow
was unruly, and the poor boy could not
get on with her at all. The boy. not
knowing the Duke, bawled ont to him in
strong Scotch aecent---s.s ,e- -.ss-.s.
HE nun. come here and gees han
wi this beast"
The Duke walked slowly on, not seem
ing to notice the boy, who stil kept call
my for his help. Come here nun, as
sure as anything Pse gle ye half 1 get.if
The Duke went and lent helping hand
"And now" said the Duke, as they
| trudged along after the COW. 'thow much
do you think you will get for the job?'
Il dinna KEN" said the boy, but Pm
sure o something, for the folks at the big
ho1se are guild to a. bodies"
As they came to lane near the house
the Duke slipped away from the boy, and
entered by different way. Calling his
butler he put sovereign in his hand,
saying, Give that to the boy who has
brought the cow" He then returned to
the end q the land, so as to meet the boy
1 on his Way back. .[..-.-..-.-s. 49,
~ ell, how much did You get, ?'- asked
the Duke
llgA shilling" said the boy, and there's
half O. it to ye"
But surely you had more than shill-

mo- said the boy, "sure that's a. ]

II do not" said the Duke, "there must
be some mistake, and, as 1 am acquainted
Iwith the Duke, # you return think II
get you more" +ss - -l
They went back. The Duke rang the
bell, and ordered all the servants to be as
sembled.
"Now," said the Duke to the boy, point
me out the person who gave you the shil
ling" s..-- e-a
ut was that chap there with the apron
said he, pointing to the butler.
The butler fell on his knees confessed
| his fault, and begged to be forgiven; but
the Duke Indignantly ordered him to give
the boy the sovereign, and quit his ser
vice Immediately.
You have lost, said the Duke, "youl
money, your situation, and your character
by your deceitfulness, learn for the future
that honesty is the best policy
iE The boy nov found out whoit was that
AeIped hlms to drive the COW, and the
DUKE was so pleased with the manlinesl
and honesty Of the boy that he sent hin

own expense

a word to RepubIicaD F.,,o.,.s.

Referring to the agricultural population
OF the country, the New York Times said
a few days since:
The price of this great staple product
wheat-is determined by its gold price in
the European markets, which is now very
low. But all their expenses are determin-
ed by the tariff The farmer receives "a
per cent. less for his wheat; z per cent.
less for his rye; less for corn; for potatoes.
For hay he gets in our market sc per cent
less. But when he must buy, all his nee
essaries are advanced Turks island salt
Is ITO per cent. higher; English bar iron,
20 per cent; carpets, A per cent. Tin gold);
red lead paint 40 per cent; cut nails, Al
per cent; lime, 66 per cent; and brown
sheeting, so per cent higher in 1870 than
in 1850.
The editor who said this is republican.
He was talking about the legislation of the
republican congress. Therefore he was not
influenced by political prejudices or by a
desire to make party capital We accord
ingly claim that the farmers of Iowa, if
not already familiar with the facts. ought
to believe every charge he makes.
But if he tells the truth, the farmers. of
Iowa are being robbed of millions of mon
ey every year-milhons for which they get
no return; robbed, too, with the help and
consent of the very men our republican
farmers vote for at every eleetion.-Deeo-

The Legislature has adjourned, after
spending months in wasting the treasury,
ratltylng many unwise and oppressive acts,
and filling the pockets of the members at
the expense of the unrepresented tax pay
ers Of the State. The scenes Immediately
preceding the adjournment were of the
most disgraeeful character. The House
presented picture Of pandemonium, clo-
sing up with vote to the Speaker of a
gift Of $500, IN consideration, doubtless,
of the free liquors and cigars furnished by
him to the members during the session
The scene IN the Senate defes description.
The negro members pronounced the car
pet-baggers thieves" escaped felons, !"
ETC., with the most offensive prefixes, one
of them charging Leslie 1.-THE Senator from
BarnwelD with keeping house of ill-fame
IN New York city, and saying he had only
escaped the penitentiary by coming South.
Leslie retOrted most savagely, telling
one Senator that the coat he was then
wearing had been stolen, and he (Leslie,
could prove it. Pointing round to the
Senators he declared that they were scoun-
drels who had sold their votes time and
again, and been bribed and bought by the
highest bidder He then gave chapters
from their past history, in which he pre-.
sented the honorable Senators flying from
Justice IN other States and fetching up al
last IN Carolina. He declared the Repub.
lican party stencil in the nostrils of de-
cency, and as Republican himself, he
was ashamed of it. The black Sena.
tors replied in the same strain, swore that
the caTpet-bag reign was ended, and that
the State belonged to the negroes, anG
they-would rule it.
In the middle of such a scene the noto-
rious Joe Crews exposed large pile o.
greenbacks on table. Tim Hurley and
two negro Senators whispered together
with Crew over his pile of money-ther
Tim circulated among the members, whis-
pering to each, and Immediately the phos-
phate monopoly bill was taken up and
| passed. =--
! After such q scene the President of the
Senate, in his closing remarks, actually
congratulated the body on the harmony
which had characterized their delibera,
tions. and their courtesy toward the Chail
and toward each other. s
/ Many really important measures il
which the white people of the State wer'
interested were, for this reason alone
probably; laid over, and the mass of the
Legislation is of no benefit to the State
however important for party ends, or thu
aggrandiZement of particular rings"

remarkable presence of mind in one SO

herolcally yentured upon the weak ice to
