CINCINNATI.
Boiler ExpIosiOn-Severa Persons
Killed.

Killed.
CINCINNATI, March lS.-The boiler
Of Jones & Carnahau's soap and candle
factory, situated on Central avenue,
exploded about 3 o'clock this afternoon
with terrible report. Jacob Asthult-
hoff, engineer, and Jacob Ungrich,
fireman, were killed, and George
Harbinger severely wounded. They
were the only persons in the immediate
vicinity. Their bodies were literally
blown into fragments, portions Of which
were picked up nearly a block distant.
About one.half Of the boiler l6 feet
long, weighing about 1900 pounds, was
blown high in the air and landed on
Bavmiller street, near the intersection
of Poplar, a distance Of near half a
a mile. 1t struck in front OF row OF
brick houses and completely destroyed
the iron railing, stone steps, &c, besides
breaking in all the glass in the lower
front windows. In front Of this row Of
houses three little girls were playing
Their names were Cora Cole, Alice
Thornton and Ella Forbes. An eye.
witness says thelittle girls were looking
at the huge piece Of iron as 1t sped
through the air and seemed to be un-
conscious of danger or unable to move.
Fragments of the boiler struck them
all, Cora Cole and Alice Thornton being
killed instantly aud little Ella sustained
injuries from which she cant recover.
The cause of the explosion has not yet
been ascertaincd. The boiler was in a
yard covered by shed. The huge
piece blown onto Baymiller street
ascended so high into the air that it is
described by spectators as looking like
q good sized kite.
LATER.
CINCINNATI, March lS.-Ella Forbes,
the fifth victim OF the terrible boiler
explosion this afternoon, died tonight.
The three little girls were all mangled
iu a most shocking manner. The
boiler is said 10 have been in good con.
dition, and the only reason that can be
assigned for the explosion is that the
water must have been allowed to get
too low. An inquest is being held.
Steamboat Collision.
CINCINNATI March lS.-The steamer
Wild Boy collided with the towboat
Kanawha with barges to-day, near
Sheridan, Ohio. A fireman was badly
burned. The Wild Boys boilers were
removed fifteen inches bv the shock.
Newspaper Suspension.
CINCINNATI March lS.-The State
Journal, an evening paper, taking Asso-
ciated Press dispatches, at Columbus,
Ohio, and started a few months ago
with the expressed intention Of break,
ing down the Dispatch, an independent
evening paper, taking dispatches OF the
American Press Association, suspended
to-day. This will hardly bear the
Associated Press out in their boast that
no paper taking the American Press
dispatches can exist in competition with
papers taking their news. 1t Is stated
that the proprietors Of the State Journal
have paid pretty dearly for their exper-
iment.
Brutal Murder-SenttO TO the Asylum
CINCINNATI, March lS.-A negro,
Ben Hyatt murdered his wife at Wyo-
ming, Ohio, last night, by cutting her
to pieces with an axe. He has not yet

The Herald Defending Grant

The New York Heruldis not a paper of
intense convictions but it is very quick to
detect public sentiment. Half the time
right and half the time wrong, every i'm
partial reader will say that in the follow
ing extract IL tells some sensible, well re-
cognized truths
Thus far his enemies have failed in every
attempt to destroy his character. He has
made singularly honest and able admin
istration The most radical Republican
can not quarrel with General Grant. Those
who were impatient with Mr.. Lincoln even
such men, let us say, as Wendell Phil
lips and Benjamin L. Butler ARE fully
satisfied with Grant. The assaults made
upon him are only evidences of his strength
with the people. His enemies have no
charges against him but corner grocery
and bar-room scandal. He takes presents,
it is said, but no one has heard ola present
accepted by him since he entered the
White House. AS a successful General,
some of our citizens gave him such token
of their esteem and gratitude as was given
to Marlborough and Wellington when
they returned from successful wars such
token as was given to General Mcclellan,
who, when he came to live among us,
was presented with housee in New York
by several leading Democrats, He has ap-
pointed few relatives to unimportant
offices; but we shall not feel very indig-
nant over this, especially when We remem-
Der that not long since Mr.. Gladstone said
in the House of Commons that one reason
why an English statesman could afford to
hold the exacting office of Prime Minister
was that he had an opportunity of doing
for his family and friends what other emf
nent and able men did in private pursuits.
Certainly Mr. Gladstone's opinion will go
far with the most fastidious critics among
our journalists and statesmen. Beyond
this petty tavern gossip nothing is said;
and this paucity and monotony of assault
form the Presidents best vindication.

The Future OF Wool.

Those who have supposed that the ex-
traordinary advance in wool last year had
reached a maximum, will be undeceived
by the following summing up by the New
York Economist concerning the consump-
ton, present stock and future wants of
of mills. 1t says:
1.-THE great stock of clothing wool in all
the markets January ], 1871, was equal to
81, 900 900 pounds f1eeces. Since then there
has been imported of clothing woods equal
to "a 500, 600 pounds fleeces add clipp OF
1871, including California, ITO, 100000
175, ZOO, 900 tieeces. Deduct stock on hand,
January ], 1872, equal to 10000, 900; con-
sumption in 1871, 156, 100000 fleeces, or an
average of 100000 pounds of domestic
wool or its equivalent per month. At this
rate at least 40,000,000 pounds more wool
must be brought from foreign countries
before our new clip is ready for market. A
part OF this is ordered but will come in at
high prices.
1t is to be hoped that consumption will
be diminished to "A certain extent, other
wise we shall see a scrambling for wool
towards summer that will be dangerous to
every body but the farmer. For the want
of stock most of the mills in the interior
will be obliged to close up soon for the
want of wool. For the last year or two we
have begged of the farmers not to kill theil
sheep. We knew the manufacturers o.
the country would not lay on their backs
and cry peecavi. They will not do il
even now when wool is up to unprecedent
edly high rates. 1t would be suicide to oul
mills. All the large mills must be run a
any cost, the small mills must stop. TheI
we will have fewer yards of goods to sell
and we must obtain better prices for these
We do not agree with the Michigan far
mer that wool has yet attained its highes
attitude when it does the world viii
know it through the Economist. AT al
events, there is one thing certain, there /
no reserve stock in the interior or in thu
world to fall back upon as in other years
and as each clip comes upon the market i

Stock Raising.

MEssRs. EDITORS The great and dis
tinctive feature of stock raising all over
the United States, and in Great Britain,
at this time, is the demand for pure blood
ed or pedigree stock. This is not mere
fancy. 1t is the result of sound expert
enee. Pure blooded stock, crossed with
common, or worn out stock, improves ana
brings up the latter. But who does not
know the vast superiority, instrinslcally,
of q pure blood short-horn or Jersey, or
Devon, over the miserable stock so COM
mon in our midst or of fine Berkshire
hog, over the sharp-backed hog, so plen-
tifn1 in our country. There is money IN
the improved breeds, and that is the point
wish TO establish. 1t costs no more to
raise pure bloods than the impure, and to
reach given weight, or accomplish the
highest result, for which the particular
animal is designed, often not half so
much.
A fine Jersey COW, for example, will not
eat so much as one of our large common
cows: and yet she will make two or three
times as much butter, of greatly superior
quality.
for January, 1872, gives the result of his
experience in the sales of Jersey cattle,
commonly called Attorney. He says his
first sale was in 1869, a yearling heifer, for
$500. Since then he has sold fourteen te-
males of all ages, at prices varying from
SIOO to $3.50, and averaging S3A 81. The
males sold were mostly calves, and aver
aged SS4 so. The average of all animals
sold, of all ages and both sexes, was
1896 "a. Eight of these were full grown
cows, whose average price was S453 II; six
were heifers averaging eleven months old,
whose average price was 5000.
Let our farmers think of these prices.
They are often greatly exceeded in the sale
of fancy short-hoIns.
AT some future time I shall give de-
scription of some of the leading breeds of
stock T.

FEMALE PRATICING ATToRNEYs.-The
most remarkable case brought before the
United States Supreme Court during the
present term was the one argued yesterday
by Senator Carpenter in favor of the adj
mission of an editress to the Illinois
bar as an attorney and counsellor-at-law
as set forth in our dispatch from Wash
ington. Mr.. Carpenter treated the decis-
ion of the Supreme Court Of Illinois with
becoming respect, although he did not
agree with the conclusion there arrived at,
that Myra Bardwell, being married
woman, would not be liable on contracts,
either expressed or implied, between her
and her clients.-N. Y. Herald.

SMALL FARMS PRoFITABLE.-At late
meeting Of the Norfolk (Mass.) Farmers
Club, Gen. b. f. Butler made the follow
ing truthful remarks in relation to small,
well-tilled farms
He alluded to the small farms of France
and said that nation is not as large as our
State of Texas, but France produces more
wheat than we do in the whole Of the
United States, small as she is. How is
that done? She has about the same num-
Der of inhabitants that we have, and VET
in 1868 her product of wheat was three
hundred and fifty millions OF bushels
against two hundred and forty millions OF
the United States. We talk about pro-
viding for all the markets OF the world,
but in 1868 we sent to England nine mill
lion bushels of wheat, while France sent
eleven million dollars worth Of butter to
spread on the bread made from the wheat
sent by the United States. These statis-
tics will teach you three things: First,
that to carry on any kind Of business, es-
pecially farming, needs great personal
thrift and economy; secondly, for farmers
to have fair play lower rate of taxation
is required; and lastly, that small farms
are much more profitable than large ones.
