WE have yet to hear from the first Re.
publican who does not condemn in the
severest terms the course of MIR. CRIs.
WE'LL, of Moundsville, in announcing
himself as a candidate for Congress; and
if that gentleman's ears have not been
burning ever since his announcement ap.
peared, then there is nothing in that pop
ular superstition. Not that anybody de.
MES Mr.. CmswELL's undoubted right as
man to be candidate for anything he
likes, either of his own motion or at the
iustigation Of Mr.. CAMDRN's right bower,
Mr.. JosEpH W. GGrLAHER; but they ex-
erclse their equal right to condemn him
according to the harm he may do, or In.
tend TO do, to q good cause; but they deny
his right under color Of Republicanism
tojeopardize the cause in which the Re.
publicans of the district are warmly in.
terested viz; the defeat of the Ring Con.
stituhon. Fortunately there are two Or
three things that render Mr.. CRIswELL's
candidacy nearly or quite harmless-First,
his recognized unatness for such a candi'
dacy=underany circumstances; Second, a
Thorough, appreciation among Republi'
cans oi The .sdyshtages to be gained ia
the State canvass, and the certainty OIL
defeating the Ring nominee for Congress
by supporting Nj. DAVIS in his defiance
of that Ring Third, tho certainty that
any considerable Republican support
given 10 Mr. CRIswELL would be thrown
away, woulG drive Mr.. Days from the
canvass and thus lose US at least a thous
and Democratic votea in The district for
JACOB and sgai6stthe CAMDEN Constitu.
ton, and. would insure The election OF WI.
soNto Congress. These afe things that the
Republicans Of the dist 1T are perfectly
aware Of as practical men they mean
to do what they can do, not 10 attempt
what they might like to doltFthey could.
They viii. support a Democrat who de.
fes and fights the Ring in preference 10 a
Republican who puts himself in its hands
and WHO Is praised by the Wheeling Req.
tsterahdothtr Democratic papers We
beg permission, therefore, to advise the
Register thatit never was more mistaken
in its life than in its elaborate Taticina-
tlonO about the way Republicans, will
vote for Congressman in this district; and
that, although that disinterested sheet
shows'it Is impossible for them to vote
for DAVIS, they wtllyote tOr him never.
theless; and although IL shows they must
vote for CRIswELL, they will not do any
such thing, II the Register wants votes
for CRIswEL1., let it provide them out OF
its own ranks. The Republicans In this
district have no votes TO throw away.

:ddties,to thensselvesfOr to their bds-
Bands; and This it's thatscauses us
'to'say that farmers must educate their
wives after they marry them. !
"A farmers wife,df she does not
sympathise fully with her husband s
calling, mustiby force Of will inter
est herself, for in no other way can
she do her whole duty. She must
bring up her children in such a way
as to impress the truth firmly on theil
minds, and that truth is, that after
all, the farmer is the only true no
bleman, for he "eats not the bread!o o
idleness," and his family may enjoy
the fat of the land"
Edgefield advertiser. [volume] (Edgefield, S.C.) 1836-current, 1872-10-31
Farmers Wives.

One of the most important helps
in managing farm successfully, is
housewife who thoroughly appreci
ates all the efforts put forth to make
the farm pay. Such wife is indeed
blessing to her husband. But a
wife who is not in sympathy with
him who is striving to make the broad
acres bring forth proper return for
the labor expended, is not only USE
less, but is positive injury both to
her husband and the noble calling Of
agriculture.
Our lady readers will say it is. ca
sy enough Tor us to find fault with
the farmers wife; but we wish to be
understood on this point, for we have
no idea Of writing one,word that shall
reflect on the fair sex. Every far
mers wife knows that there is very
large number of farmers WHO have
failed to interest their wives in their
pursuits. Failed to interest These
are the words We use, anu this, in
our mind, is where most of the diff
Guilty lies.
Farmers do not understand educa-
ting their wives Sc they may become
useful in managing the farm. Some
may take exceptions to this view Of
the case, but it is the truth, never
theless: for in these days girls are
brought up with an idea of becoming
the wife Of some man who ie not
obliged to be- a farmer; but, alas |
many fall far short Of their expscta-
tions, and at last their lot is cast. with
some honest tiller of the soil. They
may be able to- put up with the man
Of their choice, but they are not in
sympathy with his calling, simply
because they have. all their sweet
lives been made to believe that farm
ing is one of the least among the
pursuits Of industry.
Now, if this is true, and it is more
thar half true, we all know there is
something wrong at the freside. The
farmer, as a, general rule, lacks en-
thusiasm; too many are only half in
earnest, and fail to inspire the family
with confidence in their operations.
Often. the father of the family is
found repining over his lot, whiieIhe
laments that he did not, in days gone
by, embrace opportunities which, in
imagination at least, might. have
placed him in as comfortable a posi-
ten as A or B., who went to the same
school with him.
This train of thought, if expressed
aloud, must affect wife and children.
They behold his acknowledgements,
and the mother resolves that her chill
dron shall be,placed in the path that
leads to gold and luxury, and in this
free country who may not aspire to
these things for their childrenY This
Is why there are SO many wives who
do not interest themselves in the
farm. They come by their dislikes
honestly; for if they have not been
taught to despise the calling of their
fathers, they have never been taught
to respectful. This ia why they be-
come wives with no ideas as to their

From the U1lionvl{te Tunes.
Sow Plenty Of Oats.

Mr., ED1roa-There is still time to
sow oats. I beg you. to urge your
many readers to do 50 largely this
wear. 1 fear. the tendency is again
in the direction of large cotton
crop. Arrest it if you can to the
extent, at least, of providing plenty
of homemade provisions for our fam
lies, our hands and our stock.
Oats constitute one Of the most
valuable crops that Southern far
ner can raise. Nearly every portion
of the South is suited to the produc-
ton of oats. They can be raised from
the mountains to the coast. Their
value consists
First, In their value as food fol
stock.
Second, In their yield per acre.
Third, Cost OF, production compar'
ed with corn.
Fourth, They are not SO liable te
be stolen, and
Fifth. Their adsptability to all Sec
lions of our country.
Oats as food for stock rank very
high. Wheat stands at the top o1
the list as flesh and fat producing
grain; next comes barley, then oats
In their yield per acre compared with
corn or other grains, they exceed all
others. The cost of production dom-
pared with corn is fully hree-fourths
less. After the land is prepared and
the seed sown, oats require no work
until cut.
The land for oats should be well
prepared.
The reason of SO many failures in
raising oats is to be attributed to two
causes. Most people put them on
poor thin land that will not produce
corn or cotton. They prepare this
badly generally scratch it with a
scooter, and SOW peck to half a
bushel of seed, and are foolish enough
to.expect crop under such circum-
stances. If good oats are desired,
good land must be used to produce
them. The best time to SOW them is
tie fall-in September or October.
If on stubble land, turn, after ap-
plying.a good dressing of lime, all
the weeds and grass under, and fol-
low thesurn-plow With,a subsoiler.
This being done, take square-point-
ed scooter and cross-plow the land,
having previously applied a liberal
supply Of stable manure. Then sow
two bushels of the bestseed per acre,
harrow them in, and finish the oper-
alton by rolling the entire field. If
you have not. a metal roller, an excel
lent substitute can be made at triAing
expense in the following manner !:
Cut smooth pine or oak tree about
eighteen to twenty-four inches in
diameter; saw off about FIVE feet of
it Of uniform size, and attach it to a
frame in which it will roll. WheiI
the oais are a foot high, just before
rain, a, top dressing of $50 pounds
of superphosphate or strong ashes
WILDE very beneficial. The same
advice applies to spring sowing, with
the single exception that it is better
to apply all the commercial manure,
if any be used, at the time of sowing.
Why r,ise corn, the most expensive
of all food for our animals, when we
can raise. oats at a quarter of the
price, which are quite as good food,
and in some cases better than corn !?

With ali her might this ancient maid
Beneath an old oak tree knelt and prayed, !,
Unconscious that grave old owls

Obi give me husband, wild she cried )!
While vel, I may become bride.
Soon will my days of grace be DER,
Then, likeso many maids before,
I'll die without an early love,
And none will meet me there above!
Oh! 'tis fate too hard to bear:
Then answer this my humble prayer,
And oh husband give to me!
Just then the owl up in the tree; j.

How did she do IT.

Here is rather bare faced story
OF how a Dublin chambermaid is said
to have got twelve commercial trav-
elers into eleven bedrooms, and yet
to have given each a separate room.
Here we have, clever bedrooms:

No. 8, the tenth in No. 9, and the
eleventh in No. 10. She then came
back to No. L, where you will re-
member she left the twelfth gentle
man along with the first, and said
"I have now accommodated all the
rest and still have room to spare, so
if one Of you will please step into No.
