Congress NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Still Cab
bling-The Yellowstone Valley Park.
!, That dseary, weary, tiresome debate in the
Senate on the question of supplying arms to
the French went on all day yesterday, to the
neglect of the ordinary business of legislation.
If the House had concurred in the reso-
luton for adjournment ON the Goth of May the
probability is that the adjournment would
have found all the necessary work of the ses-
sion unattended to, so far, at least, as the
Senate is cancerned. If that body do not de-
wise and put in practice some means of stop
ping the garrulousness Of its members the
Senate itself will become such nuisance
devised and applied by the people. Let
the vote on the resolution be taken at once,
and let Messrs. Sumner and Schurz have all
the advantage and qualification that they may
be able to derive from the inquiry for which
they seem so anxious.
The House was engaged yesterday in real
practical business. Several bills were re-
ported and acted on from the Committee on
Banking and Currency; the Speakers table
was cleared of the business upon it; consider
able progress was made in the Deficiency APP
preparation bill, and the Senate bill setting
apart the Yellowstone Valley, with its
geysers and other natural wonders, as a ma
tional park, was passed, and now only awaits
the Presidents signature to become law.
Probably the day is not far distant when a
summer tour to this marvellous valley will be
as popular and fashionable as is now the trip to
Niagara, down the st. Lawrence with its
thousand islands, and back to New York by
Lake George and Saratoga.

AssembIyman Hustled and the Erie Ring
L. 1t BIunder or Whats
Assemblyman Hustled, of Westchester, was
very properly indignant when the disgraceful
conduct of the Erie directors, exposed in Mon
days HERALD, came to his knowledge. On the
spur of the moment he introduced In the Assem-
bly, bill to repeal the Classification act of
1869. He probably was ignorant at the time
that bill to repeal that law, and also to pro-
vide for fair and legal election of directors
by the bona .fde stockholders of the road,
was already before committees of the Senate
and Assembly. If not, it would be difficult to
understand how the introduction Of another
bill to effect portion only of the same object
could facilitate legislation upon the subject.
But is Assemblyman Hustled aware that the
bill introduced by him is really in the interest
of the Erie Ring, and that Its passage would
leave them in power just as certainly as would
the failure of Senator O'Brien's bill to provide
for fair election of directors? At present
Gould, Lane & Co. hold possession of
the transfer books of Erie, and no person can
get them out of their hands, In those books
stand all the fraudulent and false entries Of
stock the proxies of which are held by the
"Ring." They voted themselves into power
passage of the Classification act, and would
do so again should that act be repealed with
out the simultaneous passage of law
compelling them to give up possession
of the transfer books, to hold fair
election and to admit the votes only of bona
.fde holders of stock and proxies. Assembly
man Hustled has credit for unusual legislative
sharpness If he is ignorant Of these facts
if he does not know already that the simple
repeal of the classification act which he pro-
poses would leave the Erie Ring untouched,
and that Gould and Lane desire the confu-
sion and middle of legislation by the multi
plication of just such bills as the one he in
troduced on Monday, then he will readily I'M
derstand from this explanation that he Is now
covertly, if innocently, doing the dirty work
Of the Erie Ring. If he offers his bill with his
eyes open and with full knowledge of its
effect, then we must classify him as already
owned by Gould and Lane. He has the. oppor-
tunity of proving his true position by moving
to discharge the committee from further con-
sideration of his ill-timed bill and lay
ing it on the table without action.
OF one fact Assemblyman Hustled may
rest assured-we shall suffer no fraudulent
and sneaking pretences of hostility to the
Erie Ring to successfully cover up the work of
any of their paid tools. Hence, should he
know of any legislator who is acting in the
secret service of Gould and Lane, while falsely
affecting to oppose them, he may rest assured
that the HERALD will strip off his mask and
show him in his true colors to an admiring
people.

THE PRINCE ALExIs.-There was great
laundering of the big guns yesterday In Lon
don in thanksgiving for the recovery Of the
Prince of Wales, and there was great thun-
dering of the big guns yesterday at Havana In
honor of the Prince Alexis-a pleasing coinci-
dence, no doubt, to the two princes and all
concerned in the two islands.

THE CASE IN A NUTSHELL was stated the

AS BAD AT TRENTON AS AT ALBANY-The
State printing business. 1t is charged, and
the matter is before the Printing Committee of
the Jersey Legislature, that for the State
printing exorbitant prices have been paid
that, as rule, more printing has been done
than was necessary; that some work done
has been needlessly paid for twice over 4; that
much superfluous work has been done that
there has been waste in ordering ''the usual
quantity !" that the work has been shabby
done that exorbitant charges have been made
for paper; that there have been trickery In the
printing bills and bribery and corruption in
procuring jobs. They have hardly in this
business done better than this at Albany in
cheating and stealing. Jersey, therefore, Is
not 30 far behind the age after all. Let her
come into the Union.

THE TREATY OF WASHINGTON. WASH
ington dispatches of the HERALD to-day
imply that the difficulty between our own gov
eminent and that of Great Britain in regard
to the American case before the Geneva .Tri-
bunal IS hopeless of adjustment. General
Grant is said to have resolved to
end the controversy by announcing
finally the impossbility of withdrawal
or modification Of the American case,
and then to lay the facts before Con-
gress, leaving to that body the responsibility
of further action. Still, we fail to see the
necessity for any apprehension of disturb
ance of peace between the two nations should
the Treaty of Washington be destroyed. The
danger and the loss from the reopening of the
Alabama dispute will fall on England The
government of the United States can vel
afford to leave the question unsettled in the
certainty of full payment Of all our claims
and interest at future day.

THE CAMPAIGN IN NEW HAMPSHIRE WAKES
hot and interesting. The republicans are
sending in their best stump speakers from all
parts Of the country; the democrats are food
ing the State with the anti-Grant speeches of
Sumner, Trumbull and Schurz and, in short,
both sides are working like beavers. The foil
vote of the State will be brought out this time !:
but what with the OBJECTIONS of the old radi-
calls Of the Sumner school, and what with the
labor and temperance reformers, the result is
very doubtful and the battle will be- closely
contested.

that the reason why Mr.. Tweed does not 60

Proper Method of Storing Potatoes.

According to the English Mechanic, po-
tatoes should always be stored in as dry
state as possible, and should any disease
be discovered among them, small quanti-
ties only should be pitted together; GER
tainly not more than thirty bushels in
each pit. In the center of this pit should
be placed lump of lime about the size
of a mans head, and before covering
them in they should receive good dust
ing of quicklime. The lime absorbs the
moisture during the time the potatoes
sweat, and by so doing prevents the tub
ers from overheating, while its applica-
ton also greatly improves the quality of
the potatoes, no doubt absorbing much of
the water from the tubers, and conse-
quently making them more mealy than if
pitted without lime. After the potatoes
have been lying in the pit for at least a
month, they should be carefully looked
over, and may be placed together in one
or more large pits, in the center of which
should be placed a large basket of hard
Jumps of lime, or, should the pits be
formed of long trenches, it will be well
to place other baskets at about twelve
feet apart. The whole heap should also
be well sprinkled with lime before cover.
ing it. The pits should be made low and
narrow, as they are thus less liable tC
heat than if made wide and high.

in everybody's mouth scarcely less than
Tweed's. As Garvey stood at the Judges
left hand in full view of the whole Court,
those who saw him before his disappearance
from New York imagined his hair grayet
and his features sharper than usual, as
though the recollections of crime and the
vain effort TO fly from conscience as from
justice had changed his appearance, man
ner and nature alike. His manner GER
tainly was agitated and his motions nerv
Gus and frightened. His voice slightly
quivered as he replied to the questions of
Mr.. Tremaine, and he was painfully po-
lite, even tc servility, as guilty men in
such embarrassing positions are apt to be.
Whatever hope the defense may have
clung to at the commencement of the
testimony seems to have been dissipated
at the appearance of this new witness,
whom all had supposed out of the coun-
try. The dangerous nature of the testi-
mony which he might give was instantly
suggested by the first questions of the
counsel, Mr.. Tremaine, who conducted
the examination; and it was not many
minutes before the defense rallied and
came forward with their objections and
aguments. 1t was hardly in the nature
of men constituted as the counsel for the
defense to rest long from the fight, and
there consequently followed wordy war
fare of the most remarkable and exciting
character.-Neao York 71fbuAe.

Democratic Financiering.

The Democratic party, if we may be-
lieve its orators and writer's, has superior
ability to manage the financial affairs of
the nation. 1t now asks the people to re-
store the Government into its hands in
order that its finances may be more wise
ly economical. The last Democratic
President was James Buchanan, who was,
so far as his personal affairs were con-
cerned, one of the best financiers in the
country. His Administration, for which
his party was quite as responsible as its
chief, did not do so well by the country
as Mr.. Buchanan always did for himself.
When Mr. Buchanan was inaugurated in
1857, there was cash in the National Trea
sury to the amount of $40, $40, ia. He
had no war on his hands, nor had he any
occasion to make extraordinary expendi-
lures, yet when he left the Executive
Chair he left debt of nearly sixty-fve
millions, and only about two millions and
a half in the treasury to go towards meet
ing it. The kind of financial manage
ment the Democratic party gave the coun-
try may be inferred from the following
table, showing the yearly excess of ex-
penditureS over receiptS:

"Send Him up Another"

"KEEP your seat" said l, as my friend
rose to go; 81 cannot help repeating that
old boomerang joke attempted to be play
ed upon Cough by everybody's pet humor-
ist, Mark Twain, and that Falstaffian jok-
ist, the Fat Contributor. 1t has been told
before, but l should like to repeat it,
stripping the story from the falsehOods
by which it was formerly embellished."
One evening Twain and Girls found
themselves together at the Sherman
House, in Chicago, B. F. (before the
fire.
Drifting about in search of the pictur-
esque, they followed the human stream,
till, Ito wear the metaphor threadbare)
they stranded on a bar. Mr.. Cough was
staying at the house at the time, and be-
ing unwel1, had retired early. A bright idea
struck Twaln's restless mind. Lets
send him up cocktail p'
Idea voted good and acted upon. Wait
er arrived at Mr.. Coughs room: "Some
mistake; never touch liquor" Waiter
positive; Mr. Cough more'so.
On the way down it occurred to the
darkey that it was pity the cocktail
should be wasted, so he drank it, and re.
ported "all right" at the bar Twain and
Girls. intensely delighted, thought they
had caught the lecturer mapping. Lets
send him up another" said Girls. Same
result; cocktail receipted home by darkey
Excitement at fever heat.
"Give him brandy, strong" shouted
Twain.
Disappearance of darkey-ditto cocktail.
Report satisfactory, and the precious pail
put their heads together, and were con
cocting plan to mix liquors on the tenn
perance man, when Mr.. Cough entered
the bar-room, approached our heroes an6
said:
81 am afraid you rest under misap
prehension. Seeing that l was beinG
made the victim of some practical joke,
| followed the waiter down, and saw hin
drink the liquor that 1 suppose yor
thought 1 had used. You will please re
frain from sending any more up, as
have not felt the need of such drinks fo
years"
When the subject is brought up now t.

tired within himself like a creased tele

Bran for Stock.

AGAIN | say, save or procure a supply
of bran and middlings. In answer to an
inquiry some. time since in regard to the
value of the manure from ton of hay, |
made the statement that experiment had
demonstrated that the manure from bran
was more valuable than that from the
same amount of weight of any of our
common cereals-hay, straw or vegeta-
bles. will make few remarks on the
value of bran as food and medicine for
stock. / know it is spoken of and COM
mended by many, but it is not held in
that degree of estimation to which it is
entitled, nor used in the place, nor in the
manner, its qualities would be likely to
render it of the most value.
If you will go to the trouble of examin-
ing a table of it's chemical analysis, and
compare it with other articles of feed in
common use, you will perhaps be able to
form some conclusions when, and in what
quantity, it will be valuable addition to
the other feed being used, in order to
make up some deficiency, or counterbal-
ance some excess of ingredients in the
other more common articles of feed.
1t is an invaluable article fer feeding
young, growing animals, presenting the
necessary ingredients for the growth and
strengthening of the frame. Whereas,
| Will LNo It'll d lOCNl, SIGdlCI VI
it would pass off in the excrements, and
the system become clogged with excess of
fatty matter, which could not be assimi-
lated for want of a proportionate amount
of bone and muscle-forming substance.
And with it you can obviate the necessity
of going to the other extreme, as great
many do, and leave them on bulky feed
which contains very little of either him
| or her, and of which the animal is not
able to eat and digest sufficient to make
much growth in either fat, blood or bones,
and sometimes not even the necessary
amount to keep its hide on.
1t is the very thing to bring up poor
animal into sufficient condition for re
ceiving richer feed.
1t is the very thing to tone down the
fevered and clogged system, resulting
from colds, or an excess in feeding rich
fatty substances.
1t will add tone and digestion to tn,
weakened stomach, and vigor to the dul
and stupid frame.
In the hands of a feeder who will pay
sufficient attention to the condition of hi
animals to detect any irregularities o
their system, and who will use some judg
ment, it can be made to render as effect
ual service in the cure and prevention o
disease, as blue-mass and Cruel soup il
the hands of the medical profession. An,
like the cruel soup-which, if it, or some
thing equivalent to it, was administere
at the proper time, it would be most like
ly to result in cure or prevention, with
out the necessity of resorting to the us
of the -mass-so bran can be made +
check or prevent disease, and thus obvi
ate the necessity of using powders
drenchings, etc., and thus divert the dar
ger and debilitating effects attending thei
: use,

For those who cook their coarse feed,

But write this for the masses of the peo-

neglected, who yearly ship their shipstuff,
or feed it iniudiciously to get it out of the

Apples.

WITH us the use of the apple, as an ar
ticle of food, is far underrated. Besides
containing large amount of sugar,
mucilage, and other nutritive matter,
apples contain vegetable acids, aromatic
qualities, ETC., which act powerfully in
the capacity of refrigerants, tonics, and
antiseptics, and when freely used at
the season of mellow ripeness they prevent
debility, indigestion, and avert, without
d doubt, many of the ills which flesh i is
heir to-" The operators of Cornwall,
England, consider ripe apples nearly as
nourishing as bread, and far more so than
potatoes: In the year 1S01-which was
a year OF much scarcity-apples, instead
OF being converted into cider, were sold
to the poor, and the laborers asserted that
they could " stand their work " on baked
apples without meat whereas potato
diet required either meat or some other
