That the eyes of President Grant have
at last been opened to the real character of
| the Customhouse ring and their Demo
cratic allies We have assuring intelligence
from Washington. The organ of the ring,
the Citizens Guard, prints the welcome
tiding5 in a special telegram, and vainly
endeavors to hide its chagrin by miscon-
STRUNG the obvious meaning of the an
guage Of its correspondent. We quote:
1t is understood, from authoritative
! sources, that the President fully approves
| the course of those Republicans represented
by the regular State committee.
As there is but one regular State COM
Mite of the Republican party in Louis
lana, that presided over by Lieutenant
Governor Pinchback, it is plain that the
President has at last fully determined to
repudiate and disayow the abortion which
was last August forced into the world by
the aid of federal bayonets and govern
ment pap.
Nor does it appear the Presidential
change of front will stop at this just re-
buke of those who had so nearly involved
him in disgrace. He sympathizes with
the great Republican masses, including
the eighty thousand colored yeomen who
give hearty support and allegiance to the
State administration, and will protect them
IN their rights. Read:
1t has further been ascertained upon I'M
questionable authority that the President
sympathizes with and will aid the party of
the people in every possible way, and every
precautiOn will be taken under the present
legislation of the country in order to secure
a fair election in November next.
What now becomes of the threats, open
and implied, to carry the State Democratic
next November, at all hazards and at
whatever cost of blood and outrage? The
national government will guarantee to
Louisiana 50 fair election" A fair cleo
ton means a Republican victory, and
peace and progress for the State. 1t means
increased productions, extended railroad
communications, enlarged commerce, and
best of all, life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness" to all men. Let Republicans
rejoice, and let General Grant revive faith
in him by removing every obstruction from
the path Of our party, which he has unin-
te~ntionally placed there.

The Uses of Ammonia.

THE Country Gentleman thus discourses:
Spirits of ammonia are nearly as useful
in housekeeping as soap, and its cheap
ness brings 1t within the reach of all. For
many household purposes lis invaluable;
yet its manifold uses are not as generally
known as they should be. 1t is q most
refreshing agent at the toilet table; few
drops in basin of water will make a
better bath than pure water, and If the
skin is oily, it will remove all glossiness
and also disagreeable Odors. Added to
foot bath, it entirely absorbs all noxious
smell so often arising from the feet in
warm weather, and nothing is better for
cleansing the hair from dandruff and dust.
For the headache it is also desirable
stimulant, and frequent inhaling of its
pnngent odors will often entirely remove
catarrhal cold. For cleansing paint, ii is
very useful. Put teaspoonful of ammo
mia to quart of warm soap suds, dip in
flannel cloth, and wipe off the dust and fly
specks, CRIME and smoke, and see for
yourselves how much labor it will save
you. No scrubbing will be needful. 1t
will cleanse and brighten silver wonder
fully; to pint of hot suds mix tea
spoonful of the spirits, dip in your silver
spoons, forks, ETC., rub with a brush, and
then'polish on chamois skin For wash
ing mirrors and windows it is also very
desirable; put few drops of ammonia
upon piece of newspaper, and you will
readily take off every spot or finger mark
on the glass. 1t will take out grease spots
from any fabric; put on the ammonia
nearly clear, lay blotting paper over the
place, and press hot flat iron on it for n
few moments A few drops in water
will clean laces and whiten them finely;
also muslins.
For cleaning hair and nail brushes it is
equally good. Put teaspoonful of am
monia into one pint of warm or cold
water and shake the brushes through the
water; when the bristles look white, rinse
them in cold water, and put into the sun
shine or in warm place to dry. The
dirtiest brushes will come out from
this bath white and clean. There is no
better remedy for heartburn and dyspep-
sia, and the aromatic spirit of ammonia
is especially prepared for these troubles.
Ten drops of it in a wineglass of water
are often great relief. The spirits OF
ammonia can be taken in the same way;
but il is not as palitable dose. Farmers
and chemists are well aware of the hene-
| fetal effects of ammonia on all kinds of
vegetation; and il you desire your roses,
| geraniums, fuchsias, etc., to become more
fourishing, YOU can try it upon them, by
adding five or six drops of it to every
pint of warm water that you give them
but don't repeat the dose oftener than
once in every five or six days, lest you
stimulate them too highly. Rain water il
impregnated with ammonia and thus il
refreshes and WHITES vegetable life. Sc
be sure and keep large bottle of 1t in thu
house, and have glass stopper for it, al
it is very evanescent and also injurious L
lcorks, eating them away.

A Few Words about Breaking Oxen.

In the first place put them into the
stable, and commence introducing my
self to them as their particular friend,
feeding them good bits, such as sweet ap-
pies, small ears of corn, or sliced pota-
toes. When in the yard, / secure their
friendship by doing the same from my
pocket They will soon follow me about.
| then attempt to yoke them, and it does
not take three or four boys and dog to
help do it. never leave them to ramble
about the fields (as is the custom of some)
to turn their yoke and haul each other
about.
A good teamster will have a name for
every OK, and no two in the same team
should be called by the same name; nor
should he ever speak one word that has
no meaning; but be sure when he calls an
OK by name to make him understand,
and also to make him mind what he
says.
This is more important than many per-
sons imagine. Suppose man has two
sons, and he calls them both John. 1t
will be difficult when the boys are to-
gether, and command is given, to ascer-
tain to which of them it belongs. 1t is so
with steers.
When breaking a new team, the best
way VIC CNCl lOhbh W NhSil hhp"
their names is when we call "Star," or
"Bright," or "Broad,n or "Buck," TO
lust touch the one we speak to with a
spur. By that means the OK will soon
know that he is meant when he hears his
name distinctly pronounced.
then take them into the road and learn
them to travel, that is, walk evenly and
quick-stopping often, and suiting my
action to the word by stopping myself
then give something from my pocket.
practice in this way while, and instead
of their running from me, they rather rel
iSh my visits. Sometimes ! attach rope
to the bow never to the horn or nose) as g
kind of safeguard in case of fright, and
to illustrate the command to stop.
When they will stop uniformly at the
word, l put them in light sled-givc
them a good path, sometimes let then
take the lead of me stop quite often
and give something 10 encourage tht
! stopping.
The driver should also have one partic
ular word to start his team with. Come
| boys" we ever found the best word tC
start heavy load with. Some seem t.
think when they are driving team, tina
they must work the whole time, eithe
with the tongue or whip. II would be
most desirable thing for such TO keep boil
tongue and whip perfectly still.
What would you think of an officer
who, when his men were marching alonl
as handsomely as possible, should keel
jabbering necessarily without meaning
all the words needed in driving are yer,
few. We think the following are sui
ficient "Come," Haw," "Gee,
"Back." These properly used, are al
that are needed. Much talk makes con
fusion. AS soon as they become a littl
accustomed to the yoke, begin to draw
something, loading light. One troubl
with teamsters of young cattle is, the.
too soon think they have become oxen
and load too heavy.-AmertcaR Stoc
