was well attended and pleasant affair
The Grafton of Col. Lake was in his usual
happy style and the music by the Glee
Club very fine After the exercises at the
hall, the company adjourned to Leytze's
Hall, where the balance of the evening
was spent in the pleasures of the dance.

A FARMER WHO HAS GOT WELL OUT OF
THE WHEAT RUT.-Thc BULLETIN has
from time to time had occasion to allude
to what our friend A. MCGOWAN of JEFF
fcrson township, was doing in the breed
ing of improved swine. The time was,
and that not many years ago, when Mr.
MCGOWAN was doing what three-fourths
of our farmers are yet doing, namely
trying to make Il living and mayhap lay
by a little money for a rainy day, in rails
ing wheat. Though an industrious care
full, prudent and intelligent man, Mr.. Nc
Gowan had no better success than most
other farmers in this pursuit, and he came
to the conclusion that it was time that he
gave his farming operations more diver
sity, and that he ceased to depend entirely
upon the one staple product of wheat.
He turned his attention to hogs, and, de-
termining to start right, he sent to Ohio
for pigs of the celebrated Magee, Poland
China breed. His success, both as
breeder and in making his business re-
numcrative, has been ample and fully
justifes his judgment in changing his
style of farming. We have not the data
from which to give the full results of his
experiment, but Mr. MCGOWAN favored us
the other day with statement of his
present years business in hogs alone. He
hauled to this market and sold last week
$500 worth of fat hogs. He has also
sold during the year blooded pigs to the
amount of $500, making $780, cash, re-
ceived from his swine department alone
When it is remembered that Mr. Nc
Gowan is but just fairly started in the
business, and that the wheat farmers of
the county are almost universally en-
barrassed and in debt, borrowing money
to carry them through the winter, hoping
that their crop will some time bring a
price that will pay for harvesting it, the pro-
fits to be derived from change in the
present system of farming will be appar
ent. AS before stated, Mr. MCGOWAN de-
termincd to start right, and much of his
success is due the prime quality of his
stock. Among the fat hogs which he sold
last week were three of his imported
breeding stock Their weights were as
follows:
Duke, his original boar 49,. 700 lbs.
Spotted Bess. $50 lbs.
Big Beauty ............. $50 lbs.
From the progeny of the above he has
selected the best sows for breeding this
year and next.
Mr.. MCGOWAN is not the only farmer in
this county who has broken out of the
wheat rut, and found his profit in so do
ing. 1t was but short time since that
one of those engaged in raising swine and
cattle told us that, while his neighbors,
who were raising wheat, were continually
complaining of hard times, low prices,
and embarrassed circumstances, not one
year in the last ten had he failed to lay up
one thousand dollars. Let our farmers
think of these thinps

BEECHER'S SENTIMENTS.

A wEER-CARPENTER ExPLAINs-THE MYs-
Terry THIcKENs.
NEW YORK, June 27.=At a consultation
on the Triton letter last evening by the Rev.
Henry Ward Beecher and some friends, Mr..
Beecher is reported to have said that person
ally he was opposed to saying anything
publicly in reply to Tilton's charges. He
believed that the only effect of utterance
would be to prolong the discussion of
the case, while il silence was preserved,
the end would be speedily reached. He as
sured the gentlemen that his bearing to-
wards the silent policy was in no way caused
by any fear of the consequences to himself
by discussion. His desire was simply to
get out of the difficulty with little injury
to others as possible. He knew by speaking
he could end the matter so far as he was per-
sonally concerned, but he also thought that
continued silence on bis part would
shortly have the same effect, and
entertaining that opinion, he could
see nothing TO be gained by any
demonstration. Professor Raymond admit
ted the forbearance Mr.. Beecher had all
along exhibited in this matter and was sure
his congregation did the same, but he
thought it questionable whether forbear-
ance had not now ceased to be virtue. 1t
was, he knew, a Christian duty to be mag
unanimous, but the question in his mind was
whether pusilanimity and magnanimity
were convertible terms. In this connection
Mr.. Sherman, a lawyer and clerk of the
church, said that If it was necessary to say
