Editors OF the Register:
1t is gratifying to the friends of Mr..
Camden that the editors and writers Of
the Republican papers of the State
make no imputation upon his personal
integrity; that they admi his fair
ability, and recognize the 81 iccess of his
life as that of a man who b as made his
own fortune and preserved his integrity
without stain. Those Of them who
know him more intimately, appreciate
the plainuess of his manners and the
generosity Of his daily life. Let it be
understood tina: this is the judgment OF
his Republican opponents, as written
down by them and recorded in their
journals. As far as l know, no man
who has stood fairly and firmly con-
sistent in the ranks Of the Democratic
party, bolts or objects to his nomiua-
ton. A few men who hang on the
skirts of both parties, to gather the
spoils Of victory, let the victory turn to
either side it may, under color Of un-
worthy imputations upon the Demo
cratic party, nave created some disturb
ance. A few OF these men have been
spoken Of as candidates on the Repub-
lican ticket in this county, and they
may possibly accept the situation. They
are Just as we'll known 70 the Repub-
licaus as they are to the Democracy,
and It is because they are thus known
that they are thus used.
HMr Camden is, thus admittedly, q
man Of integrity, and is acknowledged
to be sound and consistent in bis politi-
cal life, then no man can oppose him
from the Democratic or Liberal side,
unless the fault and the desertion OF
principle is in himself, for Mr.. Camden,
on the conceded facts, is 8 man OF integ.
rity and is sound in his conduct and life
Is political or public man. or
Having admitted these facts in re-
lstiou 20 the nominee of the Demo
cratic party. they write down their own
refutation of every imputation they
make upon him, or reason they give
for their oppositione to him, other than
that they are Republicans and heis q
Democrat. II heis anan of integrity
and honor he would not and did not
resort to any unworthy or dishonorable
means to secure hia nomination. II

TIE Radicals don't care for or honest
ly respect Governor JACOB. They
laugh at his credulity and secretly
despise his treachery. But they want
to use him to defeat the new Coustitu-
ton and get into political control of the
State. How they would scout his pre-

make of his boosted honesty, if they had
no hope Of using him for their own adj

Governor j. j. Jacob: d
DEAR SlR-There is a difference OF
opinion among your friends in this
county, as to whether you are in favor
of the adoption of the proposed Con-
stitu,ion or opposed TO its adoption.
will you be kind enough to announce
through some newspaper OF the State
what are your views upon the subject,
and oblige DEMOCRAT.
We believe that some Of his Radical
friends expect Governor JACOB to be in
this city some time this week. Al
they are as much interested as we in hit
answer to the above question, we trust
they will insist upon his giving an un'
ouivocal reply.

THERE seems to be growing ten

THERE seems to be a growing tend
ency to place too much confidence in
chemistry, in connection with agri-
culture. There are some operations in
nature which our chemist sand scientists
do not yet fully understand, which
battle all their attempts to make a
successful application of chemistry to
agriculture. Theoretically, analysis of
a soil should give it's constituents s; an
analysis of grain should show what
was needed to make crop, and yet
such chemist as Prof. johnson, of
Yale, is compelled to admit that "The
chemist could, without difficulty, CON-
pound an artificial soil that should in
clude every element Of plant food in
abundance, and yet be perfectly
sterile" .@t
That chemistry has done much more
for agriculture is certain, and that il
may, and will do more is as true: but
with our present knowledge of the
workings of nature, it seems as if there
was just enough unknown to rende,
null and void what is known. Mature
still has some carefully concealed secrets
which the chemist must first know be
fore he can successfully apply his al
ready acquired science.

LIppINcorr's MAGAZINE For 1873.
The new volume, commencing with
the January issue, will be replete with
the most attractive features. It is the
intention of the conductors of the Mag
azine to render it model of literary
and mechanical excellence, and with
this view no advantage will be neglec--
ted which either talent or capital can
command. Among the most notable
contributions in the field Of fiction will
be a new serial romance, "MALCOLM,'
by George Macdonald, author Of
Robert Falconer," "Annals of
Quiet Neighborhood," etc. the open
ing chapter of which will appear in an
early number. This production is
confidently believed to be the MASTER
piece of it's author. A large proper
ton of the articles, especially those
descriptive of travel, will be profusely
illustrated.

Dog Tails.

The following essay on dogs was
written by a small New England boy,
this summer:
As this is the tail Of dog, it may
be inferred that every dog has tail,
and that cry tail has dog, have
never seen dogs tail run over two
feet, but the tail of dog can run any
length, and two feet always run under
the tail. AS every dog has its tail
and every tail its dog, so also has
every tail it's wag and every wag his
tale: dog can wag his tail one day
out of two, but wag can tell his tale
eight days out of week, making a
total difference between the wag of a
tail and the tale of Il wag oftwo days,
seven wags and a tail.-Mr. Shakes
peare (late of England) says that eve
ry dog has his day, but it can also be
said that every day has its dog, 50 that
we have day-dogs and dog-days are
twenty-four hours long without the
tail, but day-dogs and watch-dogs run
to any length if they are not chained.
A watchdog on land is the same as
the dog-watch on board ships, but
they are entirely different from dog
ging a mans watch and watching a man :
dog. 1'have often seen star-fsh, but
l never heard of a star-dog, although
astronomers do say there is dog-star
and that by falling down over a dog
you can see stars, but this double vision
does not affect the measurement of a
dog; he contains just eight feet, two
fore and two hind. There are many
ways in which this dogs tail could be
drawn out, but good he althy dogs
tail should not be over eight inches
long.

A Few Sheep Oa the Farm.

The relative profit is much greater
from small flock than large one.
The grain farmer, no matter how few
his acres can make money by keeping
few sheep. There is always room
for them somewhere, and they consume
and turn into money food that other
wise would waste. But he must be
careful not to overstock. To illustrate
suppose the farmer cultivate only eigh-
ty acres, raising grain chiefly. He
keeps few COWS and the necessary
teams. Onc-fifth of his farm is in
pasture, one-ffth meadow; one planted
one spring grain, and one wheat.-He
thinks he has as much stock as he can
pro6tably keep, but ifhe puts on one
sheep to every five acres, he will find
their products clear gain. In the
spring, early, they can run on the sod
which is to be planted, and one sheep
to each acre will not hurt the land,
yet they will live we'll. After that
they can 60 into the pasture, and will
clean after the cows to advantage. A
run On the stubbles afrer harvest will
not'be felt, where each sheep has two
acres, and in the fall there is plenty
to feed. Through the winter they can
be kept we'll on what the other stock
would not consume, with the addition
of a little grain. Probably the most
profitable are some Of the coarser wool
ed mutton breeds. Their lambs sell
to the butchers for high prices, and
when fat, the sheep fetch as much as a
yearling steer. Sixteen mutton sheep
well managed, would produce yearly
income of 500, where, if none were
kept, nothing would be realized. The
greatest drawback is liability to loss by
dogs; and it is disgrace to any State
to protect it's ours so well that they
expel, to "a certain extent, the only
animal which can cheaper the meat
and clothing of the people.-American
Rural Home.

Ted, mysteriously. "Miss spriggins

A LETTER TO SANTA CLAUS
BY EMILY HUNTINGTON MILLER.

Blessed old Santa C!ausl king Of delights.
What are you doing these long winter
nights Z -
Filling your budgets with triukets and
toys.
Wonderful gifts for the girls and the boys7
While you are planning for everything
nice.
Pray, let me give you bit of advice.
Don't take it hard, if say in your ear,
Santa, think you were partial last year
Loading the rich folks with everything gay,
Stumbling the poor ones who came i your
way:
Now, Of all times in the year, am sure,
This is the time to remember the poor.
Plenty of children there are in our city
Who have no fathers or mothers to pity;
Plenty Of people whose working and heed
ing
Scarcely can keep all their dear ones from
needing.
Now, if came every year in December,
They are the ones would surely remember
Little red hands, that are aching and cold,
You should have mittens your fingers to
hold:
Poor little feet, your frost-bitten toes.
You should be clothed in the warmest Of
hose:
On the dark hearth would kindle light,
Till the sad faces were happy and bright.
Don't you think, Santa, if, all your life
through,
Some one had always been caring fos you,
Watching to guard you, by night and by
day,
Giving you gifts you could never repay,
Sometimes, at least, you would sigh to recall
How many children have nothing at all?
Safe in your own quie t chamber 1T night,
Cozy and warm in your blankets so white,
Wouldn'tyou think of the shivering forms,
Out in the cold, and the wind, and the
storm
Wouldn't you think of the babies who cry,
Pining in hunger and cold, till they die
Once, on a beautiful Christina s, you know,
Jesus. our Savior, was born here below
Patiently STOPPING to hunger and pain,
SO he might save US, His lost ones, from
shame;
Now if we love Him, He bids us to feed
All His poor brothers and sisters who need
Blessed old Nick! was sure if you knew it
You would remember and certainly do it;
This year, at least, when you empty your
pack,
Pray give a portion to all who may lack,
Then, if you chance to have anything over,
Bring small gift to your friend,
KITTY CLOVER.
