THE Northern journal, an able eight
page paper published in Montreal, takes
the following sensible view of the political
situation on this side the lines:
The political contest across the lines is now
brought to a fair battle between Grant and
Greeley The Vermont and Maine elections
show that in the East the Liberal Republicans
have brought no strength to the Democracy.
The party would have done better with IL strs light
out Democrat. We are glad of this. Nothing
could be more immoral than the coalition be-
tween Greeley and the Democratic party. The
success of such n combination would tend to de.
moraliZe public sentiment. BY this nomination
and its union with the sorehead Republicans the
Democratic party has descended TO the level OF Il
faction, ready to do anything for office. Neither
Is Greeley fit man for the Presidency, nor the
party supporting him fit to be trusted with the
government of the country
The election of Grant and Wilson will be n
triumph of good government and Democra tic
principles.

The fathers laid the basis of business
one way and the sons build another.
Men who earned their fortunes by hard
work, by diligence; that knew sixteen
hours toll, by personal attention.; that
were their own book.keepers, statesmen,
cashiers, and own porters, are followed
by sons who do as little as possible;
who delegate to others all the work
they can, and who know more OF the
road than of the ledger. Famous hotel
men were gentlemen, men of intelli-
gence, men who were the equals of the
best in the land, and who never sunk
the gentleman in their trade. Young

wierdly solemn cIoister life and the
brown habit Of the order OF Mount
Carmel
After this ball, Erberto and Catarini
met frequently, on account OF the re-
newal of his visits to the Chigi palace.
On the 25th of February the Princess
Catarini left her home at 3 o'clock in
the afternoon, with the intention of call
ing at the establishment well known
Roman ieweler, named Torti When
her maid asked her whether she would
order the carriage, the Princess declin-
ed, saying, II will walk as far as Torti's,
on the Corso." These were
THE LAST WORDS
She is known to have spoken, and it
was the 25th of September. Two days
after the corpse of the beautiful woman
mentioned in the beginning of this let
ter was found, and on Saturday last,
the halffaded face, the rich, black curls,
the buff silk dress, and gold sleeve but
tons marked C. G., were identified as
those of the fair and accomplished Prin-
cess Of Chigi-Catarini.
The fact of foul murder having
been committed is beyond doubt; that
the Princess committed suicide is not
suspected by any one The project of
police, a shrewd and experienced officer,
asserts that the collar, bearing in let
tiers of blood the word vendetta"
(vengeance), and the dagger with the
diamond hilt, may be traced to the as
sassin. An extensive dealer in precious
stones and metals in Rome asserts that
he may identify the dagger, and that,
should he do so, a prominent nobleman
will be involved in serious difficulty.

Farm and Household
Sewing Grass Alone.

A writer in the Rural Ner York.
er says: Now, 1 do not believe in
any of this old-time nonsense OF
sowing grass seed or clover with
oats, rye or wheat, just because
somebody has said it was the best
way. If man wants field seeded
with timothy, SOW that and nothing
else; and the same with any other
kind of grass, or even clover, for
any of them will grow far better
alone than when crowded, shaded,
or the soil about the roots robbed
of its moisture by some coarse rank
growing grain. Of course on rich
moist soils a man may seed down
with grain and thereby save one
season; but it is poor policy to fol
low this system on old, nearly worn
out soils, even if our fathers and
grandfathers always done So"
Then, again,it is folly to mix clover
and timothy together in the same
field, for they are never both in
proper condition for cutting at the
same time, and 4 little musty, over
ripe clover, mixed in with the hay,
adds nothing to its value. By keep
ing both separate, each can be cut
when in the best condition for hay,
and this rule will hold good with
all kinds of forage plants.
