The PARTRIDGE THE FARMERS
FRIEND.-At meeting of horticul,
turists in Illinois, strong ground was
taken against the destruction of these
birds. TO show how useful this bird
Is, it was stated that a flock OF
partridges We're seen running along the
rows of corn just sprouting and seeing
them engaged in something which was
believed to be pulling up the young
plants, one Of them was killed and its
"crop" examined, which was found to
contain cutworm and twenty.one
striped bugs. Another member related
that nc had adopted measures to protect
the bird, and that they had become sc
numerous and so tame that hundreds
Of them, after snow falls, could be seen
In his barn yard with his fowls. Hi.
wheat crops were usually abundant
while in many other places not far of
the ehinch bug and other insects had
destroyed half the crop.

FEEDING HoGs.-A correspondent of
of the Ioiod Homestead affirms that var
ious experiments have proved the fact
that corn fed to hogs bas produced all
the way from two to twenty pounds
gain a bushel, according to the different
modes of preparing feed, and the age,
breed, or condition OF hogs fed. He is
satisfied that every sne.half of all the
hogs fed in Iowa, do not produce over
five pounds gross weight for each bush.
81 of corn fed, which, counting hogs at
80 per 100 pounds, gives 10 cents per
bushel for corn,

This is a Washington special to the st.
Louis Republican
WASHINGTON, August 5.-The Chandler
committee, in whose possession the rebel
archives still remain, continue to devote
their energy to finding out what there may
be IN the records to damage the Liberal
cause. The third tract of the series will
probably be given to the public within a
few days. They say that the horrible plans
to burn Cities infect clothing and cotton,
and perform other atrocities in the North,
were not eOntided to Jacob Thompson.
During the last year of the war, if the
archives are to be trusted, great number
of chemical tests were made on tOrpedoes.
One invention promised very well-that of
prepared illuminate, to be used in navy
yards, warehouses, hotels and other places
on land. These were to be thrown about
on the floor, and upon being stepped on
would explode with great havoc.
Another preparation was in the form of
liquid, or fine powder, and was only service
able as a destroying agency upon being VIC
lently shaken, when it would explode and
kill everybody within reach and set fire to
the surrounding com5ustable objects,
A secret session of the Confederate Con-
gress was held for the purpose of consider
ing the claims of a noted chemist now, it is
said, editing rampant Greeley paper in
the South, who had invented or discovered,
as he said, the most remarkable life destroy
ing agency that was ever known. A COM
nittee of Congress was appointed to con-
fer with the chemist and test his discovery.
He exhibited to the committee phial CON
tanning a cOlOrless liquid, which; he claimed
possessed the most wonderful qualities ever
known, and he said that sitting in the gal
lery of the House of Representatives in this
city, he could cast the phial into the centre
Of the hall and kill every man on
the floor in two minutes. The commit
tee were incredulOus, but when the chemist
offered to leave the room and make bet
that II the phial should drop on the floor it
would kill every one of them, they seemed
satisfied, and respectfully declined to make
any such test. The chemist then, as the re-
port goes, placed upon the mantle hand
kerchief previously prepared, and the party
left the room. At the moment promised
the handkerchief was destroyed bv sponta-
neOusly burning. As a still further test, a
number of cats were placed in an apart
ment and the vial Of liquid upset. All the
cats were instantly killed. The committee
finally reported that the tests had been
satisfactory, and that they were in favor of
treating with the chemist. Upon that bu-
reau was formed, and the chemist created
q brigadier general and placed at the head
oft But the collapse of the war prevented
the use of this engine Of destruction in the
Northern cities.
The political point of this wonderful
story is supposed TO be moral, namely, that
all those concerned in the matter are now
