with union, harmony, and. effort. Peun.
sylvauia and Indiana are within our
grasp and the party which carries the
nation ih November.
We do not consider the Philadelpia
platform so formidable as the ticket. 1t
will nptcompare in intense vigor with
the crisp Indictment and summary of
vital principles put forth at Cincinnati.
IL 1t be indeed the work of Mr.. Geo.

has lost It's skill since he betook himself
10 editorial discussions of the hats, boots,

many OF its verbose declarations we cor
daily concur ). Others are palpable Jug
giles With words meant to deceive others
ttill, like TIE Civil Service plank, are
shams so flagtantly transparent that they
tfect the gravcst discrcdit upon the
Cmmittee that reported, aud the Con-
Nention that was brought to adopt them.
But let the platform pass. We confront

more years of life; Horace Greeley, defeated,
lies dead The very circumstances of the case
show how acutely theumisfortune must have
come home. The great journalist had devoted
al his political life to championing the cause
of the negro bu: in the very first instance
where he needed the negroes support he. was
so totally ignored by that class that the bitter
cup of defeat acquired more acrid taste than
II his disappointment were caused by his own
former party"
An Insurance on His L1c.-The N. Y. San
says: MANY years ago the IriJund Associa-
ton, foreseeing the shock which MR. iGreeley' s
death would give the Tribune, insured his lite
to the amount of 100000, for the benefit of
the stock holders in common. This life insur-
ance policy has been kept good, and will accrue
to the Tribune Some of the 1Ti6une's stock
was recently sold at smaller figure but the
stockholders still estimate the entire property
at round million. In the death of Mr..
Greeley the Tribune stockholders will sustain
an irreparable loss, compared with which
100000 is mere bagatelle.
A Letter.-On the 9th of last June Mr.
Greeley wrote letter to personal friend.in
Washington. 1t reads thus Friend Lanman

foolish, impolite acts, and / did not dispute

Offering their tribute, unto God ascending;
Voices that Sweetly sing
In sympathy with mortals. their Thanksgiving.
Nurtured and trained. they bring,
PsrfectoR's fairest truitage. bright and living.
with glowing tints, they shine In wondrous beauty.
Teaching us lessons. full of Faiths own duty.
Voices from fern and leaf
From grasses growing midst the dingle's shadows;
From lives so trail and brief!
Prom Wheat aud barley, in the pleasant meadows,
From ripest harvest fruit;
From purple clusters, and the scarlet berry,
From the young tender shoot,
From tassellsd corn, N full maturity;
And the last lovely precious summer flowers,
That lingSr, whispering OF the by-gOne hours.
And from the days long past
The Aoss' stately music. still is ringing;
Elowering so tSir at last;
The promise Of the future. they are singing,
Crowned after patient years,
Our souls shall live in beauty. long awakins
Fowering though SO wn in tears,
FAiIer than earthly plant. it's crypt forsaking;

Than shining CLEANS, that fall from sun or star.
There souls angelic blend,
In harmony and rapture. ever singing
OF Him, our Heavenly Friend.
Who uurtured in US, seeds Of holy living.
Who taught our heart the prayer.
Father perfect our lives, through JOY or sorrow;
Let no corroding care
Fer blight the blossoms Of the Hope we borrow
With Iustre from the skies; and in the latest even
Our souls shall sparkle in the light of Heaven.
OH baarts thank spixins roisai
For blessed days OF peace and sunshine given,
Voices Of music praise!
For many holy friendships never riven.

Where the ripe sheaf shall bend before the throne
Rendering its homage, unto Ged alone.

Farm and Garden.

Nice and Trees.-A correspondent Of
the Boston Journal of Chemistry puts
around each tree about q bushel of clear
sand. This, he says, keeps off the mice,
and being allowed to remain on keeps
down the growth of weeds.
d Hov to Cure HamS.-Almost every
farmer has his own particular recipe for
curing his pork and hams. But this is
not saying that every one of them sue
eeeds in producing o frst-class article,
and there is no doubt but some, at
least, might improve upon their present
mode of curing them. The following
recipe gained prize at the Maryland
State Fair Mix two. and one-half
pounds saltpetre, finely powdered, one
half bushel fine salt, three pounds
brown sugar, one-half gallon molasses.
Rub the meat with the mixtuIe; pack
with skin down; turn over once week
and add little salt. After being down
three or four weeks, take out, wash, and
hang up two or three weeks until it is
dry. Then smoke with hickory wood
three or four weeks; then bag and pack
away in a cool place mot CELLAR in
chaff or hay. The above quantity is
sufficient for 1000 pounds of meat.
Pasturing on Clover.--T. L. Shepard,

edly bad, / determined to give some
rules so plain that the wayfaring man
need not err therein, and here they
are no
rr,1. Never put anything into fresh
clover pasture on an empty stomach.
2. Never when the grass is wet.
3. Never put them in when the weather
is changing from warm to cold. sr
a.. Do not give any salt for at least
twenty-four hours before putting in the
first time, nor until the evening of the
second day. .a-,.,. 4ol .o sj4aq
5. Do not let them remain in more

which they may run wei or dry with

Without such precautions there is
danger Of swelling with bloat, and val
liable animals are often lost in this way.

Remedy for Whooping Cough.-Dr. A. S.
Gerhard, of Philadelphia, has used
chestnut leaves quite extensively as a
remedy for whooping cough. They are
administered either in the form Of an
infusion, of syrup or of a fluid extract.
They contain considerable tannin their
taste is mildly astringent, without any
decided bitterness. tt.V -ieHo25
Tapioca Pudding.-Three tablespoon
fuls of tapioca, or manioca soak over
night in pint of cold water; take one
pint of milk and stir in the tapioca and
let it boil add little salt; beat the
yolks of three eggs with cup of sugar,
then put it into the taploca and let boil
flavor with lemon and vanilla; then

a pound of -four, ten eggs. Boil the
water and butter together, and stir in
the -four while boiling. Take it from

spoonful of water. Drop into a pan

Poisoning. Commercial oil of turpen-
tine is good antidote to poisoning by
phosphorus. The two substances; form
compound on the stomach resembling
spermaceti, and this can readily be re-
moved from the system.
Laudanum or other anodyne is some
times taken by mistake or otherwise,
in excess. Swallow strong coffee or the
whites of several eggs instantly; all
these are things to be done while the
doctor is coming. Let every family re,
member that sweet oil, the whites of
eggs, and strong coffee antagonize a
larger number Of poisons than perhaps
all other things together. gsc. so7heS-
If laudanum or any other poison, not
burning the throat, is taken and is
promptly discovered, the best plan is to
get it out Of the stomach instantly,
which is done by stirring tablespoon
of ground mustard in a tumbler of wa
ter, and drinking it down at once; al
most before it is down the whole con-
tents of the stomach begin to be elected.
