Good Farming.

Our husbandry ought to be a mixed
one, for only mixed husbanry, combined
with rational rotation of crops, can pre-
serve and increase the productiveness and
the net profits of farm.
We have always to keep IN mind that
the ultimate object of farming is exactly
that of any other business, viz, to make
money. Therefore do not hesitate to
pronounce that farmer the best one who
gains from his farm the largest net prof
its, provided his management is such a
one that the source of his profits not
only is not closed nor diminished, but is
increasing from year to year. To gain
large profits for only a year or two, and
in way which destroys the source, is
acting good deal like the woman in the
fable who killed the goose that laid the
golden egg.
The object of farming should be to de-
rive from the farm products all the profits
that can be made in practicable manner,
and to export as little bulk and as little
material as possible, that is, to bring our
farm products into the market In the most
concentrated condition practicable. That
means, in other words, to sell them in the
form of live stock, beef, pork, mutton,
wool, cheese, butter, etc.-Dr. DetnlerS, IN
the Chicago Tribune.

THE New WORLDS GRAND REMEDY
The Old World has played its part in veg
etable medication. But the botany of the
New World is, as yet, imperfectly eX-
plored. One new and most important
revelation from that land of wonders
California-has astonished the scientific,
and accomplished such cures of diseases
of the stomach and bowels, bilious COM
plants, malarious fevers, nervous affec-
tions, and all diseases proceeding from a
vitiated condition of the blood, as hav e
never before been witnessed.
Before WALKERS CALIFORNIA VINEGAR
BiTTERs all the alcoholic and mineral
medicines are rapidly falling into disuse.
They cannot resist the overpowering evil
dence brought forward every day, of the
immense superiority of this medicine.
Not drop of any variety of distilled or
fermented liquor or mineral poison en-
ters into its composition. 1t is a
gentle aperient, tonic, derived
from entirely new vegetable sources, an
unrivaled stomachic, admirable in all
pulmonary diseases; and, in fact, as near
to universal remedy as botanical discov-
cry and scientific skill can hope to attain.
DR.. Walker considers it a cure for all
diseases not organic, and really the great
variety of diseases in which it is success
full seems to warrant the opinion. Every
family needs such remedy. 1t saves
pain, anxiety and doctors bills. We
know what trouble it is to keep the bow
els of children in order, and any remedy
that will strengthen and regulate their
weak and variable digestion must be a
domestic blessing.

Stop the Interest.

DANIEL Webster once dined with an old
Boston merchant, and when they came to
the wine, a dusty old bottle was carefully
decanted by Peter and passed to the host
Taking the bottle he poured out Mr.
Webster's glass and handed it to him.
Then pouring out another for himself, he
held it to the light and said:
How do you like it, Mr.. Webster?"
&C think it fine specimen of old
Port?"
i" Now you can't guess what that cost
me?" said the host.
"Surely not" said Mr. Webster. 81
only know that it is excellent"
"Well, now can tell you, for l made
a careful estimate the other day When
| add the interest to the first price, find
that il cost me the sum of Just one dollar
and twenty cents per glass !"
"Good gracious you don't say So"
said Mr. Webster; and then draining his
glass he hastily presented it again with
the remark:
"Fill up again as quick as you can,
for I want to stop that cenfounded in
terest.

~ Another startling fact is developed by
the papers found among the rebel archives
which have recently come into possession of
the Government. 1t is shown by those docu-
ments that Benjamin Woods paper, the
New York Ne'cs, the worst Copperhead sheet
that existed during the war, was the official
medium for the communication of the Rebel
Government with its Northern agents who
were to instigate riots and burn cities. This

conspicuous managers, and he is on in
innate relations with that demoralized can

THE CAMPAIGN TRIBUNE.

THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE Is an Independent Re-
publican journal, which supports Greeley and Brown
and the Cincinnati Platform. It believes that, since
all the distinctive principles of the Republican party
have been accomplished, and all organized opposition
to those principles has ceased, there IL something
better TO engage the attention Of the people than 10
fight old battles again. 1t holds that the most
important thing to be done now is to effect complete
reconciliation between the North and the south.
These two great sections Of our common country
have been IN bitter hostility toward each other more
than quarter of century in reference TO the insti
tuition Of slavery. Eleven years ago this hostility
broke out IN War: Seven years ago the War teTmi-
mated, the Rebellion was crushed, and Slavery abol
ished both by force of arms and by Constitutional
Amendment. Since that time the Southern states
have been recousIructcd Impair tial Suffrage has been
established, the payment OF the National debt Sc
cured and the payment of the Rebel dobt prohibited
stacles to Permanent Peace and Reconciliation be-
tween the North and South have been removed. To
ing to the end that there may no longer be any enc
mics of our Government In our own midst, Is the
principal mission of the Liberal Republican party
which assembled at Cincinnati on the lst of May,
whose platform and nominees have been wisely and
patriotcaly mdorsed by the Baltimore Convention.

sB- Bowen, ex-Mayor of Washington, is
out with bitter attack upon the President,
founded upon the sale of the latter's private
house, three years ago. The facts are that
Bowen bargained for the house. and paid
$1,000 on the purchase. Before the transfer
was cousummated, the gentlemen who were
in quest OF house for General Sherman
pitched upon this as one that would suit.
Bowen received his 81, 900 back, and he and
his wife signed quit-claim deed. Latterly,
Bowen failed to get appointed Minister to
Buenos Ayres, and therefore he resurrected
this old transaction, long ago settled to his
entire satisfaction, and in the ordinary bust
ness way. There was not a shadow of any
thing dishonorable or unfair to him in the
whole arrangement.

at him, go behind the door of the barber's
shop in the hotel and carefully adjust his
trousers In the inside Of his boots"

s9s-The Pittsburgh Commercial says: "In
view of Mr.. Greeley's revolving purpose of
favoring the payment of pensions to rebel
soldiers, should he be elected to the Presi-
dency, what guarantee have the people that
he would not also recommend the payment
of four hundred millions of dollars to the
ex'slave-holders as compensation for the loss
of their slaves, in accordance with the prop
osition he made in 1864? This is a matter
which deserves to be carefully pondered.

and pervading the National Administration,

payer in the country"

ssS Mr. Doolittle does very much-n fact,
quite as much as the TiibuRe-when he goes

tion of "clasping hands across the bloody
chasm" because, as he expressed 1t, he de-
sired "rathor that Il should be filed so that
no seam of 1t should hereafter be discover
cd" When Doolittle replied, he read only
the first clause of Mr.. Boutwell's sentence
"We have been advised to shake hands
across the bloody chasm. solemnly protest
against the advice"-and stopping there
proceeded to argue that the Secretary desir-
ed the North and South to remain divided.

described him to be.-Bdltinore american.
