Value OF TOads in the Garden.

WE encourage the harmless toads to
linger about our cabbage and other vere.
tables as they devour every insect that
comes within their reach. Toads thus far
this season have kept our squashes and
cabbage plants as free from all insects as
the plants can be kept. Instead of being
hateful and Tepulsive animals, toads are
the most innocent creatures that ever ate
indiscriminately anything that had life
that they could swallow. They are worth
more per head to the horticuiturist than
chickens, even allowing that chickens did
not scratch.
DR.. Harris reports an interesting experi-
ment with a toad in its efforts to swallow
squash bugs, which emit an odor exceed
ingly offensive. DR. Harris supposed the
odor of the squash bug (c0reus trtstis)
would protect it from the toad; and to
test the matter he offered one to a grave
looking b1gf0 under cabbage. He seized
1t eagerly, but spit it out instantly, reared
up on his hind legs and put his front feet
on top or his head for an instant, as if in
pain, and then disappeared across the
garden in a series of the greatest leaps n
toad ever made. Perhaps the bug bit the
bitter Not satisfied with this, DR.. Harris
hunted up another toad, which lived
under the piazza and always summed him
self in one place in the grass, and offered
him squash bug, which he took and
swallowed, winking in very satisfied
manner. Twenty other fine bugs follow
ed the first in few moments, with no
difficulty or hesitation in the taking or
the swallowing, though from the wrig-
Cling and contortions it appeared their
corners did not set we'll within. The
stock of bugs being then exhausted a
colony of smooth black larvae was found
on white birch, each about three.
quarters of an inch long, and over one
hundred of these were fed to the waiting
toad. Touching one of them with the
end of a straw, it would coil around it,
and then when shaken before the toad he
would seize and swallow it, at first eager
| ly, but with diminished zest as the num-
Der increased, until it became necessary
to rub the worm against his lips for some
| time before he could decide about it. He
would then take it and sit with his lips
| ajar for short time, gathering strength
and resolution, and then swallow by a
desperate effort. There is no telling
what the number or result would have
been, as the dinner-bell rung as the 101st
| disappeared, and by the close ofth meal
he had retired to his hole, nor did he ap.
pear for four days in his summing place.

Democracy the Synonym of Monopoly.

THAT the Democratic party-what there
is left of it's the firm ally of the railway
monopolies there is no more doubt than
that 1t was the defender and supporter of
the fugitive slave law and the whole sys-
TEN OF human bondage. Its platforms
are invariably silent or equivocal on the
subject OF transportation and railway re-
form; its speakers eXpend all their fury
on "CRsarism," military rule in Louisi.
ana, and kindred subjects, and its organs
content themselves with "glittering
generalities and shadowy distractions"
on corruption in high places. But when
Democratic conventions have reasonable
hope of success their nominees are made
from the ranks of railway men. Here is
an instance. In Green County, this State,
last Monday, the Democracy nominated
for County Judge the Hon. L. f. Wor-
cester, of Whitehall, one of the leading
railway men of that section, defeating
Judge Boyd, an old farmer.
In Republican districts the Democratic
party is ready to divide with farmers Re-
publicans, anti-railway monopoly men, or
anybody else, but in straight Democratic
districts it nominates and elects straight
Democrats with railway monopoly pro-
clivities We challenge evidence of a
sing lO lhStdHCe WlleIe lne democracy mas
conceded candidate or principle to
the farmers in purely Democratic dis
trict. The Democratic party is corrupt
to the core, and to-day, if it had the
power, would remand the negroes to
slavery, rescind the recent amendments to
the Constitution, and reinstate the South
ern oligarchy in power 1t is the enemy
of free labor, and, by consequence, the in.

its history, and then contemplate it as the

tion of politicians, is palpable bosh.
They have been manipulated, from first to
last, by the lowest and most contemplate
of all politicians---the spurned and reject
ed trash of both parties. If any evidence
of this Is wanting, it can be found in
glancing over the lists of nominations
which have thus far been made, where
the names of chronic offlceseekers and
rejected candidates appear from the top
Of the ticket to the bottom.
We have seen, too, another evidence of
the presence Of the wire-pulling politi-
clan in these conventions, in the charac-
ter of the resolutions adopted. To be sue
cessful in the onslaught which they pro-
pose to make, by which the old parties
are to be extinguished at the same time
that the monopolies are to be snuffed out,
there should be at least no diversity of
sentiment upon the questions at issue.
But we find in the action of these gather
ings not only direct conflict in sentiment,
but nominations for public office of men
who were known to be outspoken railroad
men and open advocates of the very mo-
nopolies these farmers were organized to
battle.
With all these facts before them, it
must be apparent to every intelligent Re
publican that these conventions have
been, and will continue to be, in the hands
of men whose sole purpose is the creating
of disaffection in the Republican ranks
and of securing places of public trust
and emolument for themselves; men who
have become desperate by disappoint
ment, and who will not hesitate to resort
to any means, however despicable, to full
fill the mission they have in hand.-ChS
