SPEECH OF JEFF DAVIS,

we alluded yesterday morning to a
speech made by Jefferson Davis, at Selma,
Ala. We give extracts from it as it APP
perared in the Selma Press. He was sere-
naded by a brass band playing the 'sBon-
ME Blue Flag after which he spoke as
follows:
He commenced by complimenting, in general
terms. the people of Alabama. He had always
loved them, and now felt thad he could rest in
peace with them forever. They were bono of
his bone, and flesh of his flesh. Alabama and
|! his own State of Mississippi were yet one in
principle, as they once had been one in Terri

battle on the same fields for their rights IA

THE new city government OF Paris,
elected by an Insignificant vote of the citi-
zehs, assumes to represent the people OF
Paris, and to be the legitimate Govern
ment of France. Their claims to this posi-
ton are recognized in many quarters rath-
er because of temporary asoendancy than
from any belief in its permaneney or legi-
.timacy. OF sufficient force 20 exercise the
prerogatives Of government, to organize a
military force, establish courts, and levy
contributions upon citizens it wins recog-
milton from unexpected quarters. One
dispatch !. announces that the Bank OF
France has advanced it five hundred thou
sand francs; another that, having
telegraphed Bis marck that the
Versailles Government was not en-
titled to any respect because it did not
represent the people, and that the first in
stalIment of the indemnity fund would be
paid when due, his "answer was favora-
ble." "There is nothing succeeds like
success" proves true of the Paris insur-
gents so far. In possession or the revenues
and bank vaults of the great city, with
power sufficient to maintain authority for
the present, at least, it seems to threaten
The existence of the Theirs Government.
We do not believe the insurgents can, for
any length of time, retain their ascendan-
cy; for, if nc power from without inter-
feres, there are discordant elements enough
within to work self-destruction but they
may maintain themselves ustlong enough
to create dissatisfaction with the Versailles
Government, and through tits overthrow
pave the way for an Empire. To us it
seems that .events. nowItranspiring indi-

NOTHING good is ever accomplished by
bluster and bravado. Intemperrte and In
fiammatory language never convinces any
one of the correctness or incorrectness OF
theories. Mild, reasonable means are more
likely to succeed. Men may be changed
by kindness and conciliatory measures,
but never can be forced or driven. This
has been the trouble with great many OF
our leading Southern politicians. Their
course. has been calculated to aggrayate
and intensity the feeling of the masses
towards the government rather than to
reconcile. We have no doubt Of the pa
triotic intentions Of those engaged in re-
bellion against the government, if left to
themselves, but ambitious politicians,
whose only hope is to keep up strife, are
continually appealing to their prejudices,
and keeping sentiments alive which
should be forgotten. The outrages which
have been perpetrated in certain localities
of the South may be traced to this fruitful
source of contention. s.lSA
South Carolina presents case in point.
There a large number of the people COM
plain that the State Treasury has been ex-
hausted by extraEagant and corrupt ex-
lpenditures. We do not pretend to say
that they have no cause for complaint.
We have no idea that the State finances
have been as judicially managed as they
might have been. We do not doubtful that
. the State debt has been unnecessarily In
creased We have no doubt but that there
are incompetent men in the Legislature.
We had lots of them in our own Legisla-
ture, the recent demise of which we all SO
gladly hailed. ras
But, admitting all this to be true, XII
klux klans are not likely TO effect reme-
dy. South Carolina Republicans will not
be driven like beasts. Temperate means
are far more likely to bring about desir-
able results. But the very opposite course
is pursued. In a late number of the
Charleston News card is published in
reference to the collection of State taxes,
which closes as follows: s.
We don't propose to pay. Those who have
more money than they want may do 50.

Such wild threats as these are intended
for no good. Why should these men who
feel aggrieved at high taxes, parade before
the world that they fought under Lee ?"
Why this allusion to the Northern people
It is because these men feela pride in the
fact that they fought under Lee, and
would rather seize an opportunity tospeak
harshly of those who were friendly to the
government in the late struggle, than to
correct alleged extravaganza and corrup-
ton. Tt shows that they have more ha-
tired for those in charge of the State gov
eminent on account of their politics, than
on account of any actual corruption.

A German Fable.

A raven was crossing field and saw
cuckoo preparing a soft bed behind a
shady bush. That seemed very odd to
him; so he crept nearer and asked the
cuckoo what he was making there?
GA bed, as you see," the cuckoo an
swered shortly.
"a bed, what for? ?" the raven kept
on inquiring, "You are not going to lie
on the ground? AS far as | know, you
usually rest IL hollow tree"
at is not for myself" replied the
cuckoo, "but for that poor sick hen
there, you see behind the bushes. See
that poor creature" he continued weep.

Greatly an odd kind of neighborly
love. | could never in the least have
expected that of you," the raven cried
in an ecstasy; and the bright tears
hoated down his raven cheeks, at the
thought of this noble deed.

whining tone, this good hen laid me

more rapidly an animal is fattened the

pied in the process. Liberal and abun.
dant feeding is the most economical
and a saving of time in producing the
same result is gain in the profit.
Rural Lite.-Statistics teach us that
farmers live longer lives than any other
class who perform labor of a mechanical
kind, and that they are excelled in
longevity only by those who work with
the brain occasionally, as preachers,
orators, and public speakers. And the
probability is that considering the
healthfulness of their employment and
the general freedom from ANNOYING
cares and anxieties which they enjoy,
their lives might become relatively the
most enduring, did they exercise more
care in choosing their diet and in pre-
serving themselves from sudden chills
during the most trying season of their
labor, that Of harvest. 1t is then that
most farmers contract diseases which
are sooner or later fatal to them.
Spreading Manure.-We think it
wrong practice, when hauling out ma.
nure in the fall or winter, TO place it in
heaps. 1t is better to spread it at once.
In the first place, labor is saved. But
most important of all is the fact that
much Of the manure is wasted when
placed in heaps. If spread at once, it
is more equally divided than it can be
afterwards. We once hauled out ma
nure on to field, leaving it in heaps
until the hauling was completed. Dur
ing this time some showers fell. The
land was sown to oats next spring, and
on the spots where the heaps had been
the grain lodged and was spoiled. The
following crop was wheat, and on those
spots the wheat rusted and yielded
nothing; while the growth of straw was
remarkable. We have never since re
peated the practice.

Jce-Cured Pork.

The Cincinnati Price Current, under
the heading of " Provision Trade Re-
volution," gives some interesting in
formation concerning the growth of q
new industry-the Occurring of pork in
the summer-which it says is making
" great breaches" in the packing trade.
According to this trade journal, it may
almost be said that it is not longer ne
cessary to pack and lay aside meat in
winter at all, any more than at any
other season; there being, however, a
few weeks in the heated term of sum-
mer when it is not necessary nor desir-
able to handle or use much meat.
Swine are fattened more conveniently
and more economically in fall weather,
and then transportation can be done
twenty per cent. cheaper. Fresh ice.
cured meat is brighter, sweeter, and
sells higher for several of the leading
qualities than the dry, highly sailed
winter-cured. Ice-houses have been
constructed at many Western points,
where packing continues constantly and
safely all summer. The extra cost of
cold air from ice is being rapidly re-
duced, and is already counting less than
the expense of holding meat over from
winter to summer This state of affairs
has completely upset the old business
by which the wealth of the pork pack
ing business has been acquired. And
the article concludes with the remark
that "the last winters packing stock
has lately been selling at loss of some
forty per cent
