A New Use FOR CATS.-A correspondent of
Land and Water writes 1t often appears to
me that people for the most part are not aware
Of the great use cats are to Us. Ut course, we
know of their use with RESP 3ct to rats and mice,
but do we generally know of the invaluable help
they can give us in protecting from birds our
garden fruit and flowers? The late heavy rains
this spring have given US the promise Of abun
dance of strawberries and in the SOUTH at least,
the bloom is magnificent. To keep off the birds
how simple how certain, how small is the cost
of cat on small chain sliding on a wire, and
giving the animal the walk up and down the
whole length of the stawberry- bed. 4 knot at
each end of the wire readily prevents the cat
from twisting round the post which supports
the wire, and small kennel placed in the mid
die Of the walk affords her shelter and home
for her kittens In large gardens second cat
is required, and the young ones in their fire.
queut visits to each other greatly assist in scar
ing away the birds. have for more than thirty
years used and seen used with perfect success
this easy method of protecting fruit; and the
very same plan is equally good in keeping hares
and rabbits off fower-beds After the first few
days cats in DO way dislike this partial restraint,
and when set quite free, after few weeks
watching. they will of their accord continue on
guard The kittens, more especially, attach
themselves to this garden occupation, and of
their own accord become the gardeners best
allies.

spects to Miss Rosa Moses, who was graduated
at the Hebrew Institute In New Orleans, last

in young ladies seminary There is great
deal of discussion about the propriety of teach

Carrollton3 and Barnun''s Hotels werea how
ever, the chief centres Of attraction, and until
eleven o. clock the halls and lower parlors OF
those buildings presented surgiug and excited
masses of humanity; white hats and Greeley
fans were encountered at every turn. What Is
remarkable for an occasion like" the present,
angry discussions are seldom heard. If two or
more persons differ respecting Mr.. Greeley
they generally discuss his claims to the Presi-
deney in quiet manner extol or be-rate hlm
in the same sensible way, and finally adjourn
to the nearest restaurant and there end the
controversy ever little sweetened ice-water y
We observe that some of the Radical papers
are solacing themselves as far as Virginia is
concerned, at 1.-THE comparative political calm
in the country portions of the State, and the
absence of any marked exhibitions of enthusi-
aSm, by the opposition to Gen. Grant. The
Conservatives have so long and so often ex-
pressed their disapprobatioa of the course and
policy of the Administration Of Gen. Grant,
that, probably, it is not thought necessary, par
licularly just at this time, to offer any new de-
monstrations on that score. But, it should be
recollected that there is such thing in politi-
Cal affairs, and in political contest, as being
'.still as the breeze but dreadfulas the storm. :
The 'breeze may be now-the storm may
come BY aud by! We look for a great n,cyority
for Greeley in Virginia.

LoUpoUs County white population
of Loudoun county in 1850 was l5.0Sl, in 1860,
l5,02l and in 1870 l5,33S The loss In the
former decade was 60, and the gain, notwith-
standing all the losses of the war, from lSG0 to
1870 was 2l7 or . per cent,
The decrease in the colored population of
Loudoun from 1860 to 1870 was ll65 or about
II per cent This shows that Lpudoun is To-
c:lity favorable to the white race, and that
re is from some cause, great falling off in
the colored population. 1t is probable that
most Of them have gone to the cities Of Wash
ington and Georgetown.
The returns of the assessors for 1860, 1866
and 1870, show falling off in horses of more
than 2.400 from 90 to 66, while from 6G to
20 the gain has been 400, still leaving loss
in two years of 1000 horses. This may, in part.
be owing to the fact that very few persons DOW
keep riding horses as SUCH while before the
war almost every young man in the county had
his own horse for riding, which did no work

Farmers Clubs.

A member of farmers Club in Evan
ston, H., which in addition to the usual
exercises of such associations, has an agent
who contracts directly with manufacturers
for such implements and tools as the mem
bers of the society need, and who also adj
vises and assists in marketing grain and
produce, writes to the Prairie Farmer that
already more has been saved in this way
in a single season than it will cost to be-
long to the club lifetime, and concludes
by saying:
:" 1t seems strange that farmers all over
the county will not take the matter in
hand and deal mutually together, and
work for each others benefit Much can
be saved every year in buying implements
in this way, or in selling grain and pro
duce. Besides there can be much valuable
information gained by these friendly talks
about how we farm and how we ought to
farm. Farmers, it is greatly to your inter
est to organize Clubs for your mutual ben
eft. Try it and see for yourselves"-LjUe

Feeding Hogs.

Many farmers allow their hogs to take
care of themselves through the summer,
and in September they begin to feed and
fatten them. They would have larger and
better ones at less cost if they should begin
some months sooner. One of the most sue
cessful pork Iaisers in the country inform
ed us that his rule was to commence fat
tenihg his swine as soon as they are wean-
ed-that is, he gave them a constant, uni
form and regular supply of good food with
out any cessation as long as they lived.
They kept on growing steadily, were al
ways in good order, and no extra supply
was required to restore lost flesh.
1t may indeed be easier, III disposing OF
grain, to sell it to the buyer at the market
price. But by the more approved mode of
converting it into flesh, we receive our pay
for it in two different ways-the manure
which is made, for enriching the land and
the cash received for the meat. Take corn
and pork as an example. Under good
management, four pounds of meal will
make one pound of pork. This has often
been done If the meal should be worth
one dollar per hundred pounds, the pork
would cost four cents per pound. But it is
estimated that the manure from 100 lbs OF
meal fed to swine, is worth 40 cents for
farm USE This would reduce the actual
cost of the pork to less than 3 cents. TC
this the expense of attendanc should be
added, which would be small with vel
contrived arrangements.-CO Gentle

A Novelty in the Coal-Barge Line.


z number of gentlemen interested in the
coal business assembled, on Thursday, at
Wilkesbarro coal-yard, foot of East Tween
tieth street, to witness the unloading OF
gigantic coal barge, by means of movable
Steam elevator The barge has capacity for
1000 tons of coal, which can be discharged
at the rate of 200 tons an hour The coal
barges il use generally contain about 25O
tons of coal, and by means of buckets and a
derrick crane, can discharge about % tons
an hour. The vessel is divided into four
compartments. and can carry at the same
time four different kinds Of coal. The
elevator is movable to any part OF the
barge. and is provided with two huge tubs,
capable of containing three tons each. The
tubs are filled by lifting CRATE and allow
ing the coal to run in. The tub being filled,
the crate is shut down, and, the engineer
receiving signal, the tub rises rapidly, and
when at proper elevation, overturns into
chute, through which the coal is discharg-
ed to the wharf or into the ship, as the case
may be- In order to facilitate the passage
Of the coal into the tub, the deck on which
the coal is placed inclines 1t is claimed
that a river steamer can, by means Of this
barge, .coal-up" while djscharging her
passengers. About one hundred tons OF
coal were discharged yesterday in twenty
minutes.
