Re-asssmbling OF the County Convention.
The question of the re-assembliug of the
Democratic Convention is one which, we may
safely affirm, is now uppermost 10 the minds
Of the people. The contingency Upon which,
at the late adjournment, power was given to
the Executive Committee to convoke the Con-
vsntiou, it is true, has not yet happened; yet,
in view of the peculiar circumstances sur
rounding the case, the mind of the people
has, we believe, gradually become settled as
10 the necessity of the call, and that at an
early a day as possible. The attitude Of the
party at present is one of weakness rather
than OF strength, and the sooner the correc-
tive is applied, through the agency of the
Convention, the better. "In multitude of
oounsellors" said King Solomon, .thefe is
wisdom" and consequently strength, but we
hardly conceive the adage can, by apy,means,
be made applicable to the case of multitude
ofcandidates. Where this is the case, confu-
sion, disorder and weakness must, of necessi-
~, result. Scratching and blotting out of
names becomes necessary as TO certain offices,
and as c1Pcrienee has long ago proved, will
10 many instances be extended to those Offices
for which there are regularly nominated cam
didates in the field. At least, temptation is
offered which will prove too strong TO- BE- re-
sisted in many instances.
The shove are but few Of the many rea-
sons which might be cited, in opposition to
Tie policy Of having multiplicity Of candi-
dates; for various important offices. Candi-
dates should remember that the general good
Of the whole people and not personal gain
aod emolument are the prime objects to be
attained 10 the coming campaign, and that
in order to subserve the former it is absolute
~ essential that the unity and strength of the
Democratic party should be preserved, so as
to ensure success. The good of the people
and the success of our party, it cannot be
doubted, are identical. Here, it should also
be remembered, we have no overwhelming
majority which we might under other circum-
stances, afford to fritter and waste away in
vain personal contest. On the contrary, per-
feet union and hard work are, in our county,
the only steps by which we can hope to climb
TIE ladder of success.
Under oil the circumstances, viewed in the
most favorable light, the Convention should
be called together and its work completed
As before observed, the sentiment of the peo-
ple-those not aspirants themselves for posi-
ton, but yet earnest and anxious to secure
the success Of the party in whose Behalf they
have battled SO faithfully-has gradually set
tied down to the conviction that this is the
true policy to be pursued. We therefore
hope the Executive Committee wifi act, and
that speedily, as there is little or no time to
be lost.

Salt for the COrn-Grub.

The corn crop has several formidable
enemies to contend with, and among
them is the grub, which sometimes lit
orally destroys whole fields, or damages
the crop seriously. One of the best and
most convenient neutrality-suspicious. the
very best ever suggested-is the appli-
cation of salt as soon as the plant
makes its appearance above ground,
prepared and used in this way: Take
one part common salt and three parts
parts plaster or gypsum, and apply
about a tablespoonful around each hill.
1t will be found to be a sure protection.
The mixture should not come in con-
tact with the young plants, as it may
destroy them. The method has been
tried over and over again by some of
the best farmers of Pennsylvania, Della
ware and Jersey, and when properly
applied has never failed to be perfectly
successful. We hope our farmers,
who have reason to fear the depreda-
tons of the grub, the present season,
will try the mixture, leaving few al
ternate rows of corn without the salt,
and communicate to us the result
The application also acts as a first-rate
fertilizer and will more than pay for it.

The Cows Intelligence.

That COWS have memory, language,
signs, and the means of enjoying pleas
ant associations, or combining forag-
gressive purposes, have been recognized,
but scarcely to the extent the subject
merits. Travelling in Italy many years
ago, we visited some of the large dairy
farms in the neighborhood Of Ferrara.
Interpersed amongst much low lying
unhealthy land, remarkable for the per-
valance on it of very fatal forms of an
thrax in the summer season, are fine
undulating pasture lands, and the fields
are of great extent. We happened to
stop at farm house one fine afternoon
when the COWS were about to be MIXED
A heard of over hundred were grazing
homewards. The women took their posi-.
tons with stools and pals close to the
house and as the COWS approached
names were called out which at first we
thought addressed to the milk-maids
Rosa, Florenza, Giulia, Sposa, and many
names which were noted by us at the
time, were called out by the overseel
or one of the women, and we were as
tonished to see COW after COW cease feed
ing or chewing the cud and make
direct, sometimes at trot, for the wO
man that usually MIXED her. The
practice, we found, was not confined tc
one farm, all the COWS on each farm
knew their respective names, and took
up their position in the open field just
as readily as the individual members OF
some large heards in this country turn
ing from the fields take up their places
in the sheds.-The lNiEk Journal

A Great Cheese Factory.

The Wells (Minnesota) atlas gives an
account of the cheese factory at that
place, which, it says, is the largest of
the kind of the kind in the United
States-it is of 5000 COW power, and is
now using the produce'of 225 COWS. The
main building is of brick, IS by 80,
three stories high, with wing 20 by IS,
and is complete in all its arrangements.
A 24-horse-power steam engine drives
the machinery, and the water is sup
piled in every part of the building from
an artesian well. The manufacturing
room contains 80 presses, and three
watts, holding $50 gallons each, and an
arctic cooler. There is also butter
room, with every necessary appliance.
An experienced Vermont dairyman
superintends the business. The factory
is located in the center of Col. Thomp-
sons 1000 acre farm, on which the
stock of COWS is to be Immediately in
creased to 600. Nine cents per gallon is
paid for milk.

Against the StanchiOn.

Col. Waring, author OF the "Ogaen
Farm Papers," in the american Agr1cut,
turist, thus denounces the practice OF
putting cattle in stocks
As to stanchions, :" go agln EN-,
that's fat" Think them an invention
of the enemy-of comfort and thrift: 1t
is true, they are convenient ana enec-
tual. A cow once locked in between
stout stanchions is as fixed as man
with his head in pillory, and l think
about as comfortable. My COWS are
tied with three foot chains and broad
collars around the necks, and it is evil
dent that they are mnch more comfort
able than they would be in stanchlons.
When they finish their meals they lie
down and stay down, which stanchlon
COWS do not, for when single position
becomes tire some they must get up to
change it, while my animals can roll
about, lick their sides and stretch them
selves out at full length without rising.
[ sometimes find COW lying fat on her
side. with her head on the floor, and all
four legs stretched out, like dead
COW, but for the flirting of her tail; and
if she don't enjoy it, there is no enjoy,
ment to he had in COW stall. L would
like to see cow attempt this sort of
luxury in stanchlons.
There is no other place where COW
can be fed so regularly nor so economi-
cally, as from her own manger, and no
place where she will eat so quietly, for
She knows that the master" COW is
snugly tied in her own place, and can
not come to drive her away from her
feed. If peace of mind is important to
COW, we can but pity the poor brute
who is the butt of the yard, and is only
only able to snatch a mouthful here
and there, as she is driven from one pile
of fodder to another, chewing her plum
der as she runs.

THE SETTLEMENT OF THE ALABAMA
CLAIMs.-The London Times, in an edi-
torial of a recent date, says it considers
it unprecedented that such a grave diff
ference between nations as that of the
Alabama claims should have been set
tied without a resort to arms. The de-
mand for consequential damages for in
jury done to American commerce by
the Alabama and kindred vessels was
unacceptable to the English Commits
sioners, and was abandoned by the
United States. The Times, in conclu,
sion, expresses the hope that, taking
pattern from the adjustment of the
American question, the nations Of Eu.
rope will rise to higher conception Of
the aims and duties of international fell

fermentation i'm Brazil.

Rio Janeiro dates of May % state
that the Duke De Caxias, on the part OF
the Brazilian Government, presented to
the Imperial Chambers an elaborate
and carefully prepared bill for the en-
ancipation of all slaves belonging to the
Crown. This act, if it becomes law,
manumits thousands now tolllng IN the
famous diamond mines in the province
of Ninas. and also those engaged at the
construction docks and the public works
at Rio de Janeiro, Cahai, Pernambuco,
and Moranbam, besides large force
employed on the Government railways.
The provisions of the bill also releases
the convict slaves on the island of Fer
dinand de Naronka after seven years
servitude, their owners to be indemni-
fed from the Imperial treasury. The
bill meets determined opposition, it is
said, by the Conservatives in the Brazilian
Senate, but the Liberals are strong, and
will probably carry the humane meas
ure. In the lower house, where there
is an overwhelming Liberal majority,
the Emancipation bill, which has always
been the pet measure of BraziPs Demo
cratic Emperor, will encounter but fee
BILE opposition. The great objection to
the measure appears to be not so much
the justice of the act, but its hasty en-
forcement. The law, as it now stands,
provides a system of gradual emancipa
ton for slaves belonging to private es-
tates only, while the Emperor's bill
DEGREES the immediate manumission OF
all slaves owned by the Crown.

A PLAIN farmer writes us at is now
over twenty years since I heard that
sweet oil would cure the bite of rat
tlesnake, not knowing it would cure
other kinds of poison. Practice, obser-
walton and experience have taught me
that it will cure poisons of any kind,
both on man and beast. The patient
must take spoonful of it internally
and battle the wound for cure. To
cure horse it requires eight times as
much as for a man. One of the most
extreme cases of snake bites occurred
eleven years ago. 1t had been thirty
days standing, and the patient had been
given up by his physician. l gave him
a spoonful of the oil, which effected a
cure. 1t will cure bloat in cattle caused
by fresh clover. 1t will cure the sting
of bees, spiders or other insects, and
persons who have been poisoned by a
low running vine called ivy"

THE farmers of the South give this
plausible reason why they devote so
much land to the cotton and so little to
corn: The negroes steal corn to such
an extent that it is improbable. 1t is
exposed to their depredations from the
time the ears are large enough to roast
until it is ripe. and it is impossible to
keep them from making nightly raids
upon the fields. One farmer in South
Carolina says that he planted twenty
acres last year, and succeeded in saving
only sixty-seven bushels, and that like
trouble is experienced in raising pigs,
which are stolen when young. "The
niggers,' he says, " can't eat cotton, and
what they can't eat they won't steal, as
general thing; so cotton is the only
safe crop man can make"
