We arc credibIy informed that Frederic
Douglass was insulted by the employees of
the Dining Saloon at Brunswick, Monday,
where he went with parties acquainted with
him and took seat at one Of the tables. A
waiter came along and soon took the orders,
Mr.. Douglass giving his with the others
The waiter soon returned with the dinners of
all the others emitting Mr.. Douglass, who
again repeated bis order, but the waiter paid
no heed, going to another table. 4 gentle
man at the other table called the attention of
another employee to the slight which by this
time became SO generally noticed as to make
1t embarrassing to Mr.. douglass ard his
friends; but no immediate measures were
taken TO remedy the slight, and he was neg
lectgd until it was too late for him 10 be serv-
ed. After hearing about the affair, the pro-
prietor furnished Mr.. Douglass lunch to
take in the cars. The matter caused con-
siderable indignant comment. We do not
understand that the proprietor is in any way
responsible for this insult to gentleman,
but SO great, though so recent an admirer Of
Mr.. Greeley and Senator Sumner, should in

courtesy TO every citizen who conforms to

NoRru NAssALDoEo, Aug. eth, 1872.
The raising of a Greeley flag in this village
Saturday evening, followed by political har-
rangue from Ex-Governor Pillsbury, was the
occasion of quite little pow-wow among
the monSrels. The gist Of the whole thing,
and the only thing worth notice, was that
when the chairman of the meeting called for
three cheers for Greeley, and requested all
in favor of Greeley to rise, to the chagrin of
his Exoellency, only about one tenth of the
audience responded by rising, large proper
ton of whom were boys. A sad mistake in
the chairman. 4.

EFFECTS OF VARIOUS MANURES
The writer had a good chance the past
season to note the effect upon grain
Of difference in soil by the removal
Of buildings and the clearing up #
an old home site. The whole was
plowed and sown to oats. Where tie
pig-pen had stood was black growth
lodged fiat before the grain was head
ed out. The chip yard showed Il
good growth except in few small
spots, where the grain dwindled; ii
vas too dry, The place occupied by
the ash>shanty had i;ttle upon it, but
around WAS a dark circle Ct long thick
nothing better. The door
yard showed a good yield, about like
the garden and the potato patch per-
haps little stoutcr. Around the Gel
lar was a heavy yield, lodged some
what: the rest of the field bore an Or
binary crop, perhaps the best of all
these was that around the ash-hOuze.
That on the pig manure was worthless.
We should like to have seen corn up
on it. We have seen grass Orchard
grass and weeds grow around an old
heap of spent ashes. and the growth
was interesting; such profusion of
grass blades, such length, measuring
several feet, We have never seen; ii
seemed almost incredible. Urine ap
piled fresh upon the grass will kill it;
but afterwards it will make up in
growth. Where sewage has been APP
piled for years great weeds rose when
the application was supended. A
sunfower planted in the same spot
was almost a tree. and yet the land
was hard clay and gravel. The sun-
flower incidentally planted where
soil had been lOosened in search fer
angle worms. All these things tell,
and arc usful lessons. The lesson
is, save and distribute fertilizers all
of them.
