dared to intimate that the Democratic
nominee for Auditor General of the
State did not stand A No. during the
entire period of the late war, haye

as liars, etc. We must admit that it
is neither generous nor in good taste
to deny all saving virtues to a mem

relations that have been sustained by
the Democratic party toward the Gov

as to almost compel thinking man to

History of the War in Europe.

The National Publishing Co. of
Philadelphia, have just issued very
valuable history of the late War be-
tween Germany and France, from the
pen of one of our most popular writ
ers, Mr.. James ID. McCabe, Jr.
In large volume of 800 octave
pages, the author tells a wonderful
story-all the stranger because of its
truth. He tells of battles which have
shaken Europe to its centre, and the
consequences Of which, even we of the
Western World must feel of patriot
ism, heroism, military skill and states
manship, never surpassed in history.
The author writes with the weight and
force of truth, and the great merits of
his book are its reliability and strict
impartiality.
The book is complete in every par
ticular. 1t describes the causes of the
war, and the events which preceded
it; the opening campaign, and the
first reverses of the French; the effect
of these reverses upon the French peo-
Pile; the frantic effort to rescue the
beaten army, and the terrible disaster
of Sedan; the capture of the Emperor
Napoleon, and an entire army; the
Revolution in Paris; the rise and for
nation of the Republic; the flight of
the Empress from Paris; the siege and
surrender of Strasbourg and the from
tier fortresses of France; the triumph
al advance Of the German armies to
Paris; the efforts of Bazine to escape
from Metz, and the final surrender of
his army; the investment and siege of
Paris; the detailed history of this
great siege its plans, sorties, battles,
success and failures the course OF
events in the beleagured city, given in
the form of full diary of the events
of the siege; the campaigns on the
Loire, and in other portions of France;

of Paris, and the treaty; the naval

OF course, we do not mean to assert
that cows, with the best of care, viii
escape all diseases and all mishaps; nor
do we wish to put forth the theory that
abortionis attributable only to improper
feeding in the fall, or at any other time.
But we believe and assert that a farmer
loses ten times as much as he gains by
scrimping his COWS during the last of
the fall and the first of the winter, or
by leaving them to shift for themselves.
As soon as the cold rains of November
come on, they should be stabbed every
night and given a light foddering of
good hay or cornstalks every morning.
Never should they be allowed to sleep
out after snow begins falling, or left to
the pickings of frozen pastures. Cab
bage leaves, leaves of root crops, APP
pies and pumpkins can be p~roftably
fed, if other food is also given to sus-
tain and build up the muscular system.
But m~ilk-secreting food, when given in
excess, weakens the animal and often
causes her serious injury.
