The Alauts Of Alaska.

The Aleuts of Alaska are evidently of
somewhat different stock from the Indi-
ans of the mainland, and seem to re-
semble more the Japanese than any of
the AsIatic people, They possess consid-
erable adaplabllity, and up to certain
point are readily taught. The old Rus
sian Company maintained several schools
in which Aleut children were taught to
r ad and write tie Russian language
and at the present time the Alaska Com
mercial Company supports schools on the
fur seal islands where, during eight
months in the year the Aleut children
are given the rudiments of a good
Englsh education. The quality which
most distinguishes the civilized from the
pncivilized man is that OF providence.
"Sufficient tor the day is the evil thereof"
is enphatically the motto of the savage /;
and il is only rs some considerable degree
of civilization has been secured that the
desire OF saving Tor the needs of the
future begins TO operate. Judged by
this standard, some of the Aleuts are
making great advances. A considerable
sum of money has been saved by those
engaged in the fur seal fishery, and at
least one OF them has quite large de-
posit TO his credit in San Francisco
savings bank. Some part of the i'm
provenent is also owing, no doubt, to
the better accommodations which they
now have, for the habitation makes the
man almost as much; as the man makes
the habitaiion. Until very short time
ago those engaged in seal fishery lived
as all the Aleuts lived, in underground
huts, or rather caves, which it was i'm
possible to clean or free from smoke /;
but the American company has now
provided for them comfortable, board
houses above ground, in which they are
learning to live much more like rational
beings. Alaska Herald

Greeley Went to Visit ia Canada.
How Greeley, in Conference with
Rebels, Helped the Rebel Cause.

The following is an exact copy of the
original report of Jacob Thompson,
secret agent of the late Confederate
Government. stationed in Canada for the
purpose OF organizing an insurrection in
the Northern States, and burning the
principal cities. The original paper is
now III the hands of the Government :
TORONTO, G. w., Dec. 8, 1864.
Hon. j. P. benjamin, Secretary Of State:
SIR:-Several times have | attempted
to send you communications, but have
no assurance that any one of them has
been received. have relaxed no effort
to carry ont the object the Government
had in view in sending me here. | had
hoped at different times to have accom-
pllshed more, but still do not think my
mission has been altogether irutless. AT
all events, we have afforded the North
western States the amples; opportunity
to throw off the CALLING dynasty at
Washington, and openly TO take ground
in favor of State rights and civil liberty.
This fact mast satisfy the large class OF
discontents at home of the readiness and
Willingness of the administration 10 avail
itself OF every protfered assistance in
our great struggle for independence. On
my arrival here l heard that there was
such an organization as the order of the
"Sons of Liberty" in the Northern
States, and my tirst effort was to learn its
strength, its principles aud its objects,
and, if possible, 10 put myself in COM
municatioL with its leading spirits. This
was effected without much difficulty or
delay. l was received among them with
cordIality, and the greatest confidence AT
once extended 10 me. The number OF
its members was large, but not 50 great
as Mr.. Holt, in his official report, repre-
sented it to be. Its principles were That
the Government was based on the con-
sent OF the parties to it; that the States
were the parties, and were sovereign /;
that there was no authority in the Cen
eral Government TO coerce seceeding
State. The resolutions of 1908 aud 1893
were set forth as presenting the true
theory of the Government. Its organi-
cation was essentially military; it had
its commanders of DIVISIONS, OF brigades,
of regiments, of companies. In the
month of June last, the universal feeling
among its members, leaders and privates
was that it was useless TO hold Presi'
dental election; Lincoln had the power,
aud would certainly re-elect himself, and
there was no hope but in force. The
belief was entertained and freely ex-

SELECT POETRY.
Creation of Woman.

While Adam slept, God from him took
A bone; and, as an omen,
He made it like scraph look,
And thus created woman.
He took this bone not from his pate,
To show her power ample;
Nor from his teet to designate
That he ON her might tralnple;
Buteneath his arm, to clearly show
He always should protect her;
And near his heart, to let him know,
How much he should respect her.
He took this bone, crooked enough,
Most crooked of the human,
To show him how much crooked stuff
He'd always find in woman.

The Christian Union (Henry Ward
Beecher's paper) in speaking of the
present political campaign says:
One accustomed to study things in
their courses is fairly bewildered. All
ordinary laws of cause and effect seem
to have failed. The most violent Pro-
tectionist known to Ameican history
chosen TO be the candidate of the party
which has always made itself the cham
pion of Free Trade! That his brethren's
eleven sheaves should do obeisance to
Joseph's one sheaf was far less wonder.
ful than that Mr.. Greeley's political enc
mics should be seen .bowing down
around the husbandman whose fail has
been resounding on their backs for thirty
years Six months ago the Republican
party could laugh to scorn any oppo-
si,ion. 1t is different now. We believe
that it will save itself, but it will be by
thorough organization and the most in
cessant work. The campaign is to be
no holiday procession; not even a Sher
mans march TO the sea. 1t is 10 be
more like Grants march to Richmond
fighting night and day, earning every
step with battle"

Curing Hay.

With their carefully prepared roots
and herbs, many of our mothers or
grandmothers could as well alleviate the
Ills OF humanity. as can many Of the
college-bred NJ. DIS; bat note with what
care those roots and herbs were gatherd
aud prepared. That they might retain
all their virtues, they were invariably
cured in the shade. Now we, as farmers.
may learn from this lesson of wisdom
and practical utility, as applied to the
hay field. Cure in the shade versus
make hay while the sun shines. Now
the question arises, which of these two
antagonistic principles, or maxims shall
we follow? Certainly, after due reilec-
ton, all will admit that hay cured in the
shade is superior TO that cured in the
sun, whereas the former answer to the
above interrogation, both the price Of
hay and the price OF labor must be taken
into consideration therefore, in general,
we reply it labor is plenty aud hay com
nanding large prices, cure in the shade; {;
but il labor is high aud hay at low fg.
ures, cure in the sun. There are also
other matters TO be taken into account.
Thus, large crop of clover should ill.,
varlably be cut and partially wilted,
gathered up in cocks OF suitable size
and allowed to sweat a day or two :;
then open the same, aud after an hours
exposure to the sun it will be in most
excellent condition TO store away for
winters use. Therefore, care clover in
the shade or cock, not simply because, il
the crop be large, it will require TO suf
ticiently cure it at least one or two days
eXposiDg.to the sun, and as a matter
OF necessity, exposing it to the night
dew, and possibly to an unexpece ell rain
storm. Now, as a hot sun is particularly V
injurious TO clover, and moisture, as dew
or rain, far more so, therefore clover, at
least, should be treated liz the manner
above described, or cured in the shade.
Avoid the very. common and Injurious
practice of over-curing the hay. If the
grass is matured when cut, and does not
get wet, it will be suffi Gently dried or
cured in from two to four hours in favor
able weather; clover, early cut, and
lodged grasses being of course excep-
tions.-JOumaI of tie Furn.
