ECCE HOMO.

1t is to be hoped that the Louisville
Leigs,' has duly considered the affairs of
Louisiana for the last sixty days, and
that it is now prepared to declare that its
hope has been realized in regard to the
action of Governor II. c. Warmoth. To
be explicit, the Ledger indicated its belief
that Louisiana would be badly dealt with
by the Legislature which closed its labors
last night, unless the Governor inter-
vened to arrest the many schemes of spe-
cial legislative action which were pre-
scented for its Endorsement. Like most of
its Democratic contemporaries, the Ledger
failed to specify what these jobs were, or
that they were initiated and fostered in
the Legislature by prominent Democrats
from the outside, but it did characterize
much of the legislation which has been
agitated during the last sixty days. as selfish,
improper and outrageous, and unworthy
to be tolerated And it took especial
pains to thrust the entire responsibility
upon the Republican party, when COM
mon justice should have dictated the ex-
PLANTATION that the Legislature was be-
wildered by the multiplied character of
these specialties, which, being throt-
tied in one shape, Immediately presented
themselves in another, backed by the win
ming and persuasive assurances of well
dressed and seemingly disinterested par
ties that these measures were good and
progressive enactments, designed to put
the State on career of prosperity and
greatness hitherto undreamed Of. That

How TO Save Burned Trees.

Untold numbers of valuable trees, both
frllit-bearing aud ornamental, have been
destroyed by the devastating fires of
Chicago and other parts of the West
Yet, in most instances, the vitality of the
rootsslas not been impaired IL may not
be generally known that by cutting off the
trees close to the surface of the ground
before winter, and covering the wounds
with heavy coat of grafting-wax, the life
of the tree will he preserved until next
spring, when most young trees, and many
large ones that have been standing for
more than score of years, will send up
strong and luXuiant canes, which will
grow rapidly into desirable trees. Some
varieties of Cvergreens and some deciduous
trees will not sprout, while fruit trees of
every sort, grapevines, currant, and berry
bushes of every variety, rose bushes, and
valuable shrubbery, the tops of which have
been killed by fire, will sprout again, pro-
vided the tops are cut off close to the
ground before winter. If left until next
spring, the vitality of the roots of many
trees and many valuable grapevines will
be impaired to such an extent that no
sprouts will ever appear. Apple trees and
pear trees, six TO ten inches in diameter
which have been burned to blackness, be-
low the collar of the tree, should be re-
moved with axes ana carpenters adZe un-
til the live wood and bark have been
reached beneath the surface of the
ground. Small trees and grapevines
should be sawed off smoothly close to
the surface of the earth; and, if
the wood has been injured below that
point, remove the soil, and continue to cut
off the heated portions until live surface
is laid bare. Then apply heavy coat of
warm graftingwax in a liquid state, and
before the wax has become hard press a
piece of strong brown paper or Il piece of
any sort of cloth into the wax, after which
cover the stump with fine and mellow
earth, several inches in depth over the
stump A suitable grafting-wax for such
purpose may be made of equal parts of
tallow and resin of any kind or pitch.
We have frequently made it of one part of
linsecd oil mingled with two parts of
coarse, cheap resin or pitch heated in an
iron kettle until the pitch is all dissolved
and the mass is of the consistencc Of thin
tar. 1t should not be applied scalding hot
In lieu of paint brush, employ a swab
made of piece of coarse cloth wrapped
around the end of stick, Very few
young trees and but small proportion of
grapcyines and shrubbery have been
burned to such an extent as 10 injure the

Best Feed for Fattcning Cattle.

A FARMER, in fattening cattle, should
bear in mind that it does not pay to feed
grain to animals that do not take on flesh
rapidly, and that his main object should
be 10 get the most ont of his fodder pos
sible; If his stock is poor, aud will not
take ON flesh rapidly, it would be far more
profitable to sell them of, and buy better
animals. The following plan is recon-
mended in fattening cattle, by an old
stock breeder Commence with as much
food as they can bear at first, and then in
crease The great fault with farmers is
that they do not feed heavy enough
In feeding twelve quarts of meal, the
last four quarts are worth twice rs much
as the first four for lattening purposes
Some farmers complain that they do not
get pay for what grain they feed out but
it is only those who feed light that thus
complain whether the animal is to be fed
long or short time, it should have heavy
feeding. Corn meal is considered the
most profitable those who are the most
successful, and make tile business of fat
tening cattle the most profitable, are those
who feed meal largely, II farmer has
potatoes, or other roots, it is well enough
TO feed those in part but a farmer will do
better to exchange some of his roots for
corn than TO feed roots altogether. 1t is
important 10 feed regularly but not too
often, as the stock will eat and lie down
