Characteristics.

The following, from the Eufaula Times
illustrates to dot the kind of love which The
Radicals have for their coored alys:
'.Rapier, the negro candidate for Secretary
of State on the Radical ticket, at the last
election in this State, hascommeuced the pub
licaton of newspaper called the Republican
Sentinel, in Montgomery. Upon its appear
ance, the radical Judge of Probate designated
it as the official organ of the county, which
distinguished honor and patronage it enjoyed
brief period, when the aforesaid judge re-
voked the appointment and restored it to the
State Journal.
ellis white brethren let Rapier run on the
State ticket just long enough to feel good and
then withdrew him, and the same game is re-
peated in bis enjoyment of official pap. This
is their old game, which Sambo must discover
sooner or later. They give him just enough
to encourage him to follow. After the man

! DIR. Lanahan and the Book Concern.
The report of the Committee of Investiga-
tion into the Book Concern frauds has fully
sustained the charges of Dr.. Lanahan. The
trouble in the Book Concern, in the opinion
of the Committee, was mainly in the bindery
and the system of bookkeeping for severa
years, from 1861 to 1864, was denounced a:
'wholly inexcusabe." DR.. Hoffman, The
former Superintendent Of the Manufacturing
Department, was pronounced guilty of carry
ing on a system of fraud by which the Con
Germ sustained great losses, the amount o
which it is impossible to indicate with accu
racy. The purchase of paper through j. F
Portar is viewed as q ss6ecidel huSineSS i'm
propriety." The Committee, however, founc
that the losses sustained by frauds and ire
gularities are not Of such magnitude as to en-
danger the financial strength of the Bool
Concern, nor materially to impair its capital
An attempt was made to vote the repor
through and bush the matter up. DR.. Lana
han, however, amid great excitement, mad
motion to have the report printed, whicl
was finally carried, and DR.. Lanahans tri
umph was plete.-American.

Farm and FzreSade.


There are more than ten million cows in
the United States, the money value of
whose production does not aggregate more
than forty millions per annum. Few of
these cows pay their owners any profit; the
vast bulk of the. whole do not pay ex penses
of feed and labor. This is readily shown
when we come TO figure up the cost of a
years provision for a cow, and allow q fair
margin for the protection of those which
really pay profit over and above the cost
of keep and labor of attention, and prepar-
ing dairy products for market. This, too,
is owing TO the gradual depreciation of
stock for 1t Is apparent 10 any man ac-
quainted with the general run of our stock.
that ii is not improving in quality, nor
even holding its own. Every succeeding
year finds dairy stock increasing, and per-
force degenerating; for where no careful
selection is made, stock will certainly run
down. Originally our stock was the pro-
duce OF the best attainable from European
breeds, for we cannot suppose that any but
the best were brought by our first settlers
from Europe. And now, although much
money is being spent in improving our
breeding stock, the wave of Improvement
only ripples here and there, without affect
ing in the least the wide general level.
Now il is far from profitable to keep retro
grading stock, and dairy stock cannot
stand still it must improve or go back
Neither can we afford to permit any fur
Their retrogresslon, or II would be more
profitable to put our stock out OF existence
forthwith. When it is clearly understood,
II will be seen how absolutely necessary IL
is that our dairy stock should be improved.
The Improvement needs TO be begun by
getting rid, as soon as possible, of the
worst of it, from which we suffer such a
loss as can only DO appreciated when we
consider how low an average is made by in
Guiding our very best. All such poor
profitloss cows should be dried off, and fed
for tho butcher, and their places supplied
by the most promising heifers. A stop
too, must be put to the practice of selling
good heifer calves for veal, for here is the
chief road we have travelled in reaching
our present stage. Further, improved bull,
must be introduced, either by cooperating
farmers or the efforts Of our agriculture
societies, and their produce carefully i'm
proved. In this and other ways that will
readily suggest themselves, can compare
lively inexpensive improvements be be
gun and continued A taste for improve,
stock has been created in the general mas
of agricultural communities by the effort
of wealthy breeders, but the idea is preva
lent among farmers that it is hopeless Il
attempt to compete with them in raising
improved stock, and that men Of ordinar,
means can never hope to possess such ami
mails. But it may be done, and by coop
Grating and combining small capitals o
individuals for their joint benefit. If sucl
efforts are made, and an improvement be
