To MAKE FARM LIFE ATTRACTIVE
First, By less hard work. Farmers
often undertake more than they can
do well, and consequently work too
early and too late. Second, By more
system. The farmers should have q
time to begin and stop labor. They
should put more mind and machine
ry into their work. They should
theorize as we'll as practice, and let
both go together. Fa m n s is
healthy, moral and respectable; and
in the long run, may be made profit
able. The farmer should keep good
stock, and out Of debt. Third, By
taking care of health. Farmers have
a healthy variety Of exercise, but too
often neglect cleanliness, eat irregu-
larly and hurriedly, sleep in ill-ven-
tilated apartments, and expose them
selves needlessly to cold. Fourth,
BY adoring the home. Books, pa
pers, pictures, music and reading
should be brought to bear upon the
indoor family entertainment; and
neatness and comfort, order, shrub
berry, flowers and fruit, should har-
monte all without. There would be
fewer assertions of old homsteads il
pains we're taken to make the m
agreeable. Ease, order, health and
beauty are compatible with farm life
were ordained to go with it Elk
change.
VOICE AND MANNER.-These have

his listeners acknowledged, to the
conversation of Chateaubriand. Tits
really not so much what is said, as
how it is said, that makes the differ

In public discussions, in parliament
or elsewhere, though the grace OF
voice and manner are valuable adj
iuncts to the speaker, especially III
the opening Of his career, he soor
commands the attention of the audi
ence, in. spite of personal defects il
these particulars, when it is once
found that he can speak to the pur'
pose. But all the good sense ane
ability in the world will not make up

barrassed manner, or even for very
disagreeable voice. We may be con
scious that the man has plenty to say
but we receive no pleasure from his

Defensive Medication.

Investigation Is rs necessary for the pro-
lection of the human body against disease
when unhealthy influences are abroad as
iron armor and granite easements are for
the protection of ships and fortresses when
assailed by shot and shell. Hence 1t Is de-
sirable when those potent enemies OF vital
ity, damp and cold, pervade the air we
breathe, to put the system in the best posi-
BILE condition to encounter them. The
stomach is the organ by which every other
organ is nourished and sustained, and
therefore upon its vigorous and regular ac-
ton depends in great measure the capac-
ity of the system to resist the assaults OF
the invisible enemies of health and life, by
which, at this Indictment season, 1t Is sur
rounded. Hostetter's Stomach Bltters, an
admirable tonic and regulating medicine
for all seasons, is never more needed than
in winter, when the torplfying influence OF
a chilly atmosphere effects all the vital
functions and renders the body extremely
susceptible. BY toning the digestive organs
and the liver and the bowels with this I'M
eoualled vegetable specific, physical con-
dition Is attained which seems to be proof
against all varieties of temperature, and
that is inimical in the air of winter. De-
fensiye medication is precaution which
should never be neglected when danger Is
present, and therefore course OF the Bit
tiers at this season Is particularly deslrable,
especially for the feeble and sickly. AS Il
remedy for billousness, dyspepsia, nervous
ness and bowel complaints, there is nothing
comparable TO this wholesome restorative.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
CONSUMPTION Can be Cures

An Eastern medical periodical gives an
interesting account of the complete cure of
Mrs. Amos Stauffer, of Manor, Lancaster
county, Pa, of Hereditary Consumption.
Her parents and several brothers and sisters
died of this terrible disease. Mrs. Stauffer
was herself reduced to mere skeleton, the
pulse at liO, her breathing painfully diff
cult, expectorations very excessive, d.
arrhcaa worse than chronic, and her con-
dition so hopeless that at conference OF
the old and skillful physicians she was pro-
nounced incurable. At this stage of the
disease, Dr. S. Z. Hartman, Of Millersville,
Lancaster county, Pa, a physician of four
teen years standing, prescribed MIsHLER's
HERB BrrrERs. The patient soon expert
enced a pleasing invigorating sensation
throughout her system. and encouraged by
her friends to continue under DIR. Hartmahs
treatment she did so, gradually improving
under increased doses according to her
strength until she entirely recovered. Mrs.
Stauffer is still living in the full enjoyment
of perfect health. c. b. Herr. ESD, Prcsi,
dent Of the Lancaster county Pa National
Bank, substantiates the particulars OF this
most wonderful case.

GOVERNOR YARMOUTH, OF Louisiana,
has put his official foot upon one OF
the pet measures Of the Radicals OF
that State. The measure is entitled /:
AN act forbidding unjust dIscrmlna-
ton on account Of color or race, and to
proyide means for enforcing the same.
1t was intended to compel keepers OF
theatres, saloons, ETC., and the proprie-
tors of public conveyances to receive all
persons on equal terms, without dlstinc-
ton on account of color, and to author
ize the Police Commissioners. Of the
Metropolitan Police District, to arrest
persons complained Of for violating this
provision for trial before Recorders or
Justices of the Peace, and to close the
establishments wherein the ofienses are
alleged to have occurred. The 81 for
bid of the Governor, in this case, Is
founded upon four reasons. First, vlo-
lation Of the ninety-fourth article OF the
State Constitution, which withholds ju-
dicial powers from any officers except
those named therein; second, violation
of the sixth article of the State Consti-
tuition, which secures trial by jury
third, violation Of other articles which
guarantee speedy trial and the privilege
of bail; and finally for the reason that
; ut is 40 attempt to enforce civil rights
by means of criminal procedure" All
these points are presented and enforced
in detail and with an array Of facts and
force of reasoning, which the friends
OF the measure will not be able TO meet
and overcome Negro equality, es-
pecially the social aspect Of it, is utter
ly repugnant to white men, and they
will never submit to it.

VERSAILLES, June 2O.-The govern
ment has passed the sentence OF trans
portation on twenty-five hundred women
who have been convicted Of aiding the
Commune in its late rebellion against
the government. A number Of them
were taken while fighting desperately on
the side of the Commune. They will be
conveyed to Toulon, from which point
they will be shipped in government
transports to the colony Of Caledonia.
The destination meant is probably New
Caledonian Island, off Australia, stu
ated in the South Pacific Ocean, and is
about two hundred miles in length and
thirty in breadth. 1t is approachable by
two openings only, being surrounded on
all sides by high, bristling rocks and
dangerous coral reefs. The character OF
this natural prison, therefore, in every
way suits the requirements of the gov
eminent in its desire to place these
Amazons where they can no longer in
cite people to revolt and sedition.
The Military Committee propose that
immediate steps be taken by the Govern
ment toward the organization of an ac
tive army of 100000 troops, and also
recommend the formation Of reserve
force of 100000, to be called into the
field only when necessity arises, or il
time of war.

fore to guard against the effects which

THE RIGHT TO 1T.

What right have the Southern papers
to discuss matters and things that occur
in Massachusetts, And by what right,
especially, do they allude to the taring
and feathering of a young woman by
some men in that State the other day.
We have no patience with the dizziness
that will not learn. We had thought it
ought to be now pretty well stolen and
robbed into the heads of people that
this is not a Government Of equal
rights and privileges. All that sort Of
thing did very well in its day until
our system took a new departure and
created classes on the two sides of an
imaginary line-one class to create and
the other to reap the national benefits.
Know you, therefore, that in Massachu-
sets dozen men may tar and
feather a woman, and it is no
business Of the Southern newspapers
1t is not disloyalty to the Government,
ana no COHliulNAtc bAEohiNNN " HSN~ va
bad odors has anything to do with it
Such a case never occurred, and never
can occur, among the native population
of the South; and it is useless TO inquire
what would be its effect on Eastern sen
timent. Congress will never inquire
into that Massachusetts, outrage. 1t will
be smothered up and stifed in that hot
hell into whose ohasms all the inferna
isms of New England precipitate them
selves. But, suppose dozen white mel
should, on the soil of Mississippi, seiz'
a colored woman, tar her and feather
her. and leave her to herself is it moi
certain that Congress would investigate
the circumstance, and that an indig
nant howl would reverberate from Bos
ton harbor to Vaneouver's Island
What is the difference2 Simply this

TIME TO MOVE.

1t is time for the Democracy or
you prefer it, the Conservatives OF tn'
South to move. If they intend to sustain
the National Democracy, and they I'M
questionably do, let them hasten to eu'
loose from every complication that
threatens the success of the party Lei
them announce distinctly that no man
or set of men can compromise them. Inc
Radicals of the North are ubilant. They
have taken the conversations of Toombs
and the speeches of Davis and attempted
to fire the Northern heart with them
and boast that they have already won
the battle of 1872. Let the Southern
Democrats and Conservatives knock
that boast down their throats Let
every man in the North who can be
reached be informed that these gentle
men did not speak as Democrats, but as
individuals, having a right to speak, bnt
only for themselves.
