SENATE. s-20t2 81
n Spencer, of Alabama, advanced with the
intention Of taking the oath.
Bogard objected to Spencer being sworn
in. He said that it was known that there
were doubts as to the legality of the cleo
tiOn, under which the credentials of Mr..
Spencer came to the Senate. ~,s1
The credentials of another gentleman,
claiming to be elected Senator from Ala
banla, Mr.. Sykes, We're on the table, and
Mr.. Begard objected to Spencer being
upon by committee of this body.sl6
Hamlin said the custom was to swear in
Senator whose credentials were in regu-
lar form and then if there were any ques-
tions as to the legality of his election they
could be decided upon without prejudice to
any one. This has been the precedent.
Bayard moved that the credentials of
Sykes and Spencer be laid on the table,
and that the question of Spencer's admis
sion be postponed until tomorrow or to
some proper future day. ts-i-i
Conkling said Sykes was here solely as
a memorialist, whereas the credentials of
Spencer were in proper form. He lCOnk-
ling) held that Spencer should now be
sworn in in accordance with the custom
and the precedent, and his credentials
could then be referred to the committee
on credentials without any prejudice what
ever to the contestant.
Bayard said Conklingwas mistaken in
his assertion that Sykes was held in the
capacity of ,memorialist. The .creden-
tials of Sykes are in regular and proper
form. AS to the precedents in such cases
Bayard instaneed the fact that Stark, Of
Oregon, whose credentials were in proper
form and for whose seat there was no con-
test had not been admitted, but his cre-
dentiaIs were sent TO the judiciary Com
mittee, and two years ago Goldthwaite. Of
Alabama, was objected to. His Gre
dentials were in proper form and
there was no contestant whatever for his
seat; yet we all know how long itwas be-
fore he was admitted to his seat. Bayard
then maintained that the record
showed that Spencer's credentials were
not in proper form, and it wouldbe an in
justice to the people of Alabama if he
was admitted without scrutiny. The dis
cussion on the subject was continued by
Thurman and others. Epencer'sJ case oc-
cupied the Senate the entire day.

BOILED Corn FOR HOGs.-I expert
mented five years in fattening hogs, three
with meal well scalded and cooked before
feeding, and the other two in feeding corn
boiled. / shelled the corn from the cob,
and boiled it slowly in boiler, and fed
eight quarts per hog daily, keeping the
have all the heat possible. The hogs that
I fed with boiled corn fattened fully one
fourth faster than with meal, and the pork
was we'll packed with leaf lard and was
solid and delicious enough for the most
fastidious.
Cne of my neighbors has fattened bis
hogs for several years past on dry meal,
giving two quarts to each hog three times
a day for drink he gives them cold water.
He claims this to be the cheapest and best
way. Certainly there are no better than
he raises, for their age, and no cleaner.

A Perfect Horse.

In weight she might have turned, when
well conditioned, nine hundred and fifty
pounds. In color she was dark chestnut,
with veIvety-depth and soft look about
the hair indescribably rich and elegant.
Many time have heard ladies dispute
the shade and hue of her plush. like coat
as they ran their white, jeweled fingers
through her silken hair. Her body was
round in the barrel and perfectly symmet-
rcal. She was wide in the launches,
without projection of the hip bones, upon
which the shorter ribs seemed to lap.
High i'm the withers as she was, the line Of
back and neck perfectly curved, while her
deep, oblique shoulders and long, thick
forearm, ridgy with swelling sinews, sug-
gesting the perfection of power and stride.
Her knees across the pan were wide, the
cannon bone below them short and thin !;
The l,asterns long and sloping; her hOOfs
round, dark, shiny and we'll set on Her
name was shade darker than her coat,
fine and thin as a thOroughbred's always
is, whose blood is without taint or cross.
Her ear was thin, sharply pointed, deli
cately curved, nearly black around the
borders and as tremulous as the leaves of
an aspen. Her neck rose from the with
ers to the head in perfect curvature, hard,
devoid of fat and well cut up under the
chops Her nostrils were full, very full,
and thin almost as parchment. The eyes,
from which tears might fall or fire fash,
were well brought out, soft as gazelle's,
almost human in their intelligence, while
over the small bony head, over neck and
shoulders, yea over the whole body and
clean down to the hoofs the veins stood
out as if the skin were but tissue paper
against which the warm blood pressed
and which it might at any moment burst
asunder. "a perfect ANIMAL" 1 said to
myself, as I lay looking her over, "an an
imal which might have been born from
the wind and the sunshine, so cheerful
and so swift she seems; an animal which
man would present as choicest gift to the
woman he loved, and yet one which that
woman, wife or lady-love, would give him
to ride when honor and life depended on
bottom and speedily. III. II. Murray,
in atlantic Monthly.
