DesperadOes.


The following statement, which is vouched
Tor by several gentlemen, undoubtedly dis
closes . case in which Vigilance Commit
tee properly organized and judciously Off
eered might do much good by Kidding the
community of a set of desperadoes who are
no doubt destined to fill the places made
vacant by Kellogg's friends in the Peniten
tiary.
When the police authorities either refuse
to act or are unable to afford relief In a case
like this, it simply becomes matter Of
self-defense.
It has long been known that Magnolia
Bridge, on the Basin, ana vicii ity of the

A New Remedy.

Mr. Grouler-In view Of the fact that the
efficient and well regulated police of this
city have failed to prevent the almost
nightly depredations of thieves and bur
glars upon the property of citizens, or ferret
out and arrest the perpetrators, and as thu
de facto is unwilling that citizens should
organize and arm in their own defense l
would suggest that the city authorities try
the effect of bribery. 1t is held by many
that every man has his price. If so, thieves
and burglars are no exception to the rule.
If bargain can be struck with them-if
they can be bought off from their depreda-
tions, will it not be safer and cheaper ar
rangement than keeping up police force ?
There is said to be honor even among
thieves, and l doubt not, if they were to
agree, for a certain sum to cease stealing
and breaking into houses, they would faith
fully carry out their part Of the agreement
ECONOMY.
As matter Of economy, no doubt the
above device would be profitable, but might
not Kellogg grumbleat it. The money spent
for the police enables him to keep up his
body guard, and.this just now is everything

Tie following ten rules applicable
to setting hens and young chickens
were contributed to the Mobile Regis
ter By a lady: 49, =
l. Never set hen in a close box,
give her plenty of room to turn about !;
she will not do well if cramped OF
crowded.
2. Always set her on the ground, if
possible. The eggs will hatch best
with the nest directly on the ground.
). Don't give any hen more than
thirteen eggs for Il, setting. [ know
fifteen is the rule but experience hss
taught ME to consider fifteen Just
two too many. :. ',5.. =.
+. Be careful to mark the eggs for
other hens are apt to hay in the nest
with your setter, and unless the eggs
are properly marked you might not be
able to indemnity the new eggs. You
understand that eggs laid to a setting
hen must be promptly removed.
5. Make q record Of the time when
you set your hen, in order that you
may be looking out for the hatch
ing.
6. Some eggs will invariably hatch
a little sooner than others. Remove
your young chicks at, once, and keep
them from the hen until sll are hatch
ed. If You. do not, the hen will be
likely to quit the nest with the first
eomers, leaving the unmatched chicks
to chill aud die.
I. Don't pick at the bills of the little
chicks in an effort to remove. what
some people call the pip" 1t is all
; right, and will disappear so soon as
nature requires.
S. Never undertake to feed your
setting hens on the nest-it is poor
way. Let them come for their food.
They will not stay of too long.
Nature knows what she is about. l
am not sure but the eggs require
about the amount Of airing they re.
ceiye while the hen is off for food.
8. See that the hens do not run
about too much while the chickens
are yet young it will cause them to
drop, and will sometime give them
disease called "spraddles." ."
TO- Feed your young chicks on corn
meal mixed with pure water, and don't
mix it toe wet. You want it so it will
crumble.

FACTS ABOUT WAEAT.-I will rc.
cord some facts which T have observed
When the season for sowing was Wet
aud rainy, the crops usually rusted.
I have never seen destructive rust on
land manured by cattle in summer
pens. I have seen farms manured
by leachcd ashes escape rust, when all
around Was affected by it.
Experience has taught me that
whenever rast had taken full possess
Ion Of the blade, if the wheat is in the
dough state, it ought to be harvested;
you get more and better wheat. Ia
deed as soon as the first appearance
Of rust is perceived on the stalk; when
wheat has reached the dough state,
it ought to be cut; it will be heavier
and make more and better -four

70 RENovATE CARPETs.-A tea
spoonful of liquid ammonia in one
gallon of warm water will often restore
the color Of carpets even if produced
by acid OF alksli. If, ceiling has
been whitexasl1ed with carpet~down,
and a few drops are visible, this will
remove it. Or, after the carpet is
web beaten and brushed, scour with
ox-gall, which viii not only extract
grease but freshen the colors One
pint Of gall in three gallons warm Wa
ter will do a large carpet. Table floor
cloths may be thus washed. The suds
left from 4 wash, where ANN onia
is used, even if almost cold, cleanses
these new floor. cloths well.
