OSBORNE CITY, KANSAS, May q, 1873.
Ed. JoURNAL:-It may be of interest IL
some of the readers Of your most valuable
paper, to know little about matters and
things, in this part of the world, and I bope
that the following lines may prove to be inter-
esting as far as they go:
We live in that part of the country known
as the Solomon Valley Country" which
would be useless for me to try and illustrate
as the same has been done long since, by much
more competent persons than myself But
suffice to say, that with few exceptions this
country would comply with what the lament
ed Byron had in his Imagination when he
composed the following lines:
'Oh give me the land of the cedar and vine,
Where the flowers ever blossom and the leaves
ever shine;
Where the olive and orange is the fairest of fruit
And the sweet voice of the nightingale never is
mute"
Our town is located on the south fork of the
Solomon river, sixteen miles from the main
river-the present population is two hundred,
and age of the town is two years.
We have all kinds of business represented,
and all are doing well. Game of all kinds is
plenty and much pleasure is derived in kuut-
ing it. Hundreds of Buffalo can be seen anv
day from town, while antelope, prairie chick
ems, jack rabbits, wild geese, &C., are in
abundance. Farms are being opened all the
time, and the work Of the ploW can be seen in
every direction.
The prairies presents most beautiful ap-
pearance at this time of the year, as the grass
is Just high enough to look like one continu-
GUS carpet of green. bespangled with the most
elegant flowers. Our society is good, but we
have a shortness of ladies. We have sonse.
but we need more to make better and more
contented state of affairs. Our young men
called here bachelors) are ali of the very
best in energy, morality and everything that
goes to constitute gentlemen, and furthermore
they are all striving to seek matrimony. We
have in this immediate vicinity counted by
friend and myself to day forty of this class of
young men, ranging in years from TWENTY
one to thirty-fve, all owners Of 100 acres of
the choicest land, and everything around them
to make life happy but the loving words of a
feminine. Some are farmers, others trades
men. and some are merchants, but all are gen
tlemen.

BRooKLYN, April 2, 1872.
The document proves nothing,
but that the men among themselves
agreed to 'forget the past" What
that past was, or whether the per-
son charged was guilty or not does
not appear in the document. 1t was q
mistake to enter into sHch an agree
ment, and was not honorable to any
of the parties. Tilton, he had suf-
fered wrong at the hands of Beecher,
should have exposed him and
brought him to punishment, and not
have turned him loose to repeat his
wrongs elsewhere, upon society.
Beecher, if'he was wrongly charged
with an offence, should have de-
manded an investigation that his
character might be Vindlcated be-
fore the world, and that the cause OF
religion should not snf4r al his
hands. The prominent position
which he has occupied, rendered
this course imperative, and his fail
ure to do so has given grounds fol
the enemies of Christianity to sneer
at its results. We trust the inves-
tigation ordered by Plymouth
Church may result in vindicating
Beecher's character, but if not, then
let them cast him out as evil.

OILING THE HARSEss.--In these times Of poor
leather we should clean aud oil the harness at
least once year to keep il in good condition,
and to reduce the wear and tear as much as
possible. Don'tlet the job 90 to the harness
maker, but some Of these stormy days, when
the harness is not in use, just take II into the
workshop and commence operations. Take the
harness all apart and scrape off all scurf, hairs
and dirt, and wash the leather clean with soap
and hot water. Then heat Two or three quarts
Of neatsfoot oil IN a long shallow pan, and
draw each piece of leather through it slowly
bending the leather backward and forward
and rubbing She oil in with a cloth or sponge.
Hang near the fire to dry, and repeat the pro-
cess until the leather is saturated with oil !
mix little l0mpback with clean tallow, and
with cloth rub it into the leather while
warm, until the pores are filled and the sur
face becomes smooth and glossy. fla harness
is oiled in this way it is never gummy, and
will therefore keep clean long time. Some
times linseed oil or adulterated oils are used
but they dry on the leather and make it gum
my dit and hair stick TO it, aud the harness
gets so filthy as to soil everything it touches.
After the harness has had good oiIing, an
occasional rubbing with talow and lampblacli
will keep the leather tough and pliable and
prevent it from cracking.

~ THIS HIGHLY-BRED TR0TTING
TSSA STALLION will stand for mares the
A-A-4. coming season at the Stables of Ali
son Nailo:, Jr., Washington, D. c., and at
Rockville, Md, every alternate week, com
mencing at the latter place on the lst OF April

RICHMOND is u beautiful dapple gray !;
stands full 10 hands high is 8 years old this
Spring; is powerfully and symmetrcally
formed with immense bone and fine lrotting
action His temper is excellent. He has never
been trained, but trotted double with his
mate, when only four years old, ut Rockville
Fair, in 250 and Pas, and to Single harness
in 2:404.
PEDIGREE. Richmond was bred by the
late A. j. Alexander, Of Kentucky, by Pilot.
Jr, dam Matte, by Mambrino Chief; I'd dam
by SCOTS Highlander; Sd dam by Copper
bottom tn dam by Old Tiger 9TH dam by
Imported Buzzard
Pilot Jr., was the sire Of the following cele-
braied trotters, namely: John Morgan, Tackey
Chicago, Pilot Temple, (winner Of over So
600 last year, Bayard Roscoe Dixie, Queen
Of the West and Tattler. The latter trotted
in 26 as a five year old, and is now standing
for mares at Trenton, New Jersey, at $l0O the
season.
Manbrno Chief-sire of Richmoud's dam
was also sire Of Lady Thorne, Bay Chief,
Ericsson, Mambrno Patchen, Brignola, Ken
lucky Chief, Ashland Idol, Mam6rino Pilot,
and many Others that cannot be named here
The latter is owned by c. p Relf ESQ, Nor.
rstown, Pa, and is making the season at
500. He and Richmond are brothers in
blood, both on the side of sire and dam Rich
mond being by Pilot Jr., his dam by Mann
brine Chief Mambrino Pilot was by Nam
brine Chief, and his dam by Pilot, Jr.
II Will be seen that Richmond inherits moi
only the blood of the best trotting strains in
the country, but this is united with that of
the sTourEsT thorough-breds 1t is therefore
reasonable to infer that lie cannot fail to be-
come the progenitor of frst-class stock. He
has proved himself sure foal-getter.

DESTROYING LICE -Nllch cows and calves
are usually the first to be infested with lice,
and they extend thence to the balance of the
herd, and in the spring before shedding the
hair these parasites most prevail This is es-
pecially the case with those herds that are not
thoroughly cared for, and with those whose
masters add to their droyes By purchase. One
Of the easiest applications is kerosene reduced
with two-thirds its bulk in water. A few APP
plications carefully applied will usually de-
stroy the yermin. Lard oil with little sui
phur mixed in il is also good application,
but if the animals take cold upon the applica-
ton of sulphur sometimes they suffer from the
effects Western Rural.

you continue to pillow as many acres, and I'M

are that you will get meagre crops, and the
land will become more aud more weedy, and

and common sense all demonstrate that good

not do anything else towards improving your

any rate TO make an earnest effort to kill the

iIoRsEs IN STORMS. void, as far as posi-
BILE, exposing horses to storms. When on n
journey, aim TO feed at the regular hours. If
nothing more can be done, take along some
corn meal, and put quart in pail OF water
and stir il up while the horse is drinking. 1t
will greatly refresh and strengthen him.
Many horses suffer from dyspepsia, and one
great cause of it is irregularty in feeding and
giving too much grain when the horse is IA
tigued When horse has been exposed 10 a
storm, and comes home in an exhausted con-
diiion, give him warm bran mash. Put two
or three quarts of bran in pail, and pour on
three quarts Of boiling water and stir it up (;
then add cold water sufficient to cool it to the
temperature Of new milk, and give ii to the
horse. Blanket the horse, and rub his head,
ears and legs dry, aud afterwards rub him dry
ali oycr Many an attack Of collie would be
avoided by these means. We think many far
mers err in not feeding their horses more on
grain. 1t would be better to work harder, or
at least more constantly and feed higher. OF
one thing we are very sure-not one farmer in
ten grooms his horse sufficiently. 1t lisa shame
TO a man to leave his horse ut night, after a
hard days work, until he has been rubbed
clean, dry bedded, and all his wants attended
