Phi-Delta-Theta Convention.
The Annual Convention and
quarto-c centennial celebration
of the Phi-Delta-T Theta frater.
nifty was held at Athens, Ohio,
Wednesday and Thursday, May
14lh and 18th. This society is
a secret organization, existing
in The different colleges
throughout the United States,
the purpose of which, is the
improvement of the intellectu-
al and social abilities of the
students, and the formation of
a stronger, and more confident
and animated spirit of friend,
ship between student and stu.
dent, which could not be form
ed otherwise. 1t is customary
to select some collegiate town
IN which to hold the conven.
tion, and Athens was chosen
the pace. Each Chapter is en-
titled 10 one delegate, and only
one. The convention convened
on Wednesday morning, and
was in session two days trans
acting the business of the fra
lernity. On Thursday evening
a literary entertainment was
given for the benefit of the
public, The Hon. Ransford
Smith of Hamilton, Ohio, and
Mr.. Q. o. Perry, Of Indianapolis,
Ind, being the orators of the
evening. A crowd of about
seven hundred persons assem-
bled at the Aethaneum intent
upon hearing the noble and
distinguished speakers. Mr..
Smith addressed the audience
In an able and eloquent man.
ner on the "Origin, Growth and
Progress of the Law" The
speaker viewed his subject
from historical standpoint,
commencing with the law as it
existed in antiquated times,
and noting the different modes
and changes up to the present
time. The production was
noted Tor its prolundity of
thought embodied in it, and
the eloquent manner in which
1t was delivered. Mr.. Smith
submitted the floor to Mr.. Per-
ry. In an unaffected refined
and mellifluous manner, Mr..
Perry presented a "History OF
the Fraternity" In December
1S4S, the first chapter of this
fraternity was founded at the
Miami University, Oxford, O.
During the course of the last
twenty-five years mid the ex
cessive turmoil, the unceasing g
vituperations, the unremit.lng
contempt OF the sister lraterni-
ties, the Phi-Delta-T Theta has
increased from one chapter to
nearly forty, comprising a mem
bershlp of nearly two thousand
and to-day she stands second
to no other fraternity In exis
tence. This fraternity is WELD
ing a powerful and mighty in
fluence for good over the broad
domain reaching from New
York to California; from Mich

nothing but honor and credit
upon the person, who is mem

DEBT not ABOVE S!O0, U0O, provided it
makes provisions for the payment of the
interest and also of the principal at
maturity.
But there is another question in consider.
ing that subject that must be taken in con-
sideration. The taxing power has a limit.
Although the constitution, in terms. does
not limit the power OF taxation, SET the
rights OF property and OF persons form
barrier against unlimited taxation. 1t can not
be urged that should they levy twenty-five
per cent tax. they can do so simply because
the constitution does not limit their power
of assessment. What was contemplated b.
the constitution and the power conferred
by that instrument on the Legislature is its
controlling discretion over the amount OF
expenses that were fixed in that instrument.
And the Legislature, seeing that an abuse
had been made OF the power of taxation.
and the creation of debts without any limit,
saw fJ to submit to the people of
Louisiana a provision to be incor-
porated in the constitution that when
adopted would prohibit the creation
of a debt above a certain limit. That lin
itation was adopted on the sixth of Noyem.
Der, 1870.
The Supreme Court. in considering the
effect OF that prohibition. stated that the
expenses provided for by the constitution
Itself were not in the nature of debt, and
although the debt may exceed the limit for
other purposes, vet those demands must be
met and paid. If it should turn out at any
time to be fact that none of this debt
exceeded the limitation Of So, 900, 900,
and there were demands for current
expenses that had been provided for at the
adoption OF the constitution itself which had
not been paid then the debt by that lmita-
ton would necessarily be compelled TO be
reduced so as to allow payment of the cur
rent expenses, and that is the very difficulty
here.

condition of Louisiana do not result from

Oats and their Origin.

At q meeting Of the farmers
club recently held at Cobourg, Can
ada, the secretary gave some ac-
count OF the origin of oats and the
countries where they grow. Its ma
tive country is unknown, but most
probably it came from Central Asia.
There is no mention Of oats in the
Old Testament; we are told that
Solomon fed his horses and dromi-
daries on barley. Oats were, how
ever, known to the Greeks who call
ed them "Broomes," and to the Ro-
mans who made use of them as pow
ender for their horses early in the
Christian era. The oats are better
suited to a moist than dry, and
to cool rather than q warm eli
mate, though their fields Of cultiya-
ton do not extend quite so far north
as that of the coarser kinds of bar
ley. In Scotland oats are grown to
the north point; in Norway their
culture extends to north latitude Sc
degrees; in Sweden to latitude SO
degrees 80 minutes; in Russia these
polar limits appear to correspond
to those of rye; south of the para
lei Of Paris oats are little cultiva-
ted. In Spain and Portugal they
are scarcely known, yet they are
grown with considerable advantage

Care of Horses Legs.

Few men who handle horses give
proper attention to the feet and legs.
Especially is this. the case on farms.
Much time IS often spent in rubbing,
brushing, and smoothing the hair on
the sides and hips, but at no time
are the feet examined and properly
cared for. Now, be it known, that
the feet of a horse require more care
than the body; they require ten times
as much; for in one respect they are
almost the entire horse. All the
grooming that can be- done won't
avail anything ii the Horse is forced
to stand where his feet will be filthy.
In this case the feet will become dis
ordered, and then the legs will get
badly out Of fix, and with bad feet
and bad legs there is not much else
OF the horse fit for anything. Stable
prisons generally are terribly severe
on the feet and legs of horses, and
unless these buildings can afford q
dry room where q horse can walk
around, lie down, or roll over, they
are not one-half SO healthy and COM
forta BILE to the horse as the pasture,
and should be avoided by all good
hostlers in the country.
