The Southern Claims.

The papers belonging to the
claims lately reported to Congress
by the Southern Claims Commission,
as allowed or disallowed, have been
removed to the room of the House
Committee on War Claims, where
they are to be examined and report

members. A communication from
Washington informs Us that it is not
probable that an appropriation to
pay the allowed claims will be made
till late in the season, when the
Third Auditor of the Treasury Wi l
be required to state the amount in
each case before the Treasury can

Treasury drafts, which claimants
must personally endorse. The claims

Cats. Hay. Wheat.

JACKSONVILLE H., Jan. 16.-The
National Crop Reporter publishes its
final estimates of last years crop Of
oats and hay in the States of Illinois,
Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota,
Missouri, Ohio, Tennessee and Wis
consin,. The estimated total pro-
duction of oats, in the States named
in 1872, was in round numbers Of
1872, 100000 bushels, and the falling
off from this in 1873 is placed at ten
and two-tenths per cent. Indiana
shows the.heaviest loss, being over
seventeen per cent, and Tennessee
the largest gain or nearly nine per
cent.
The estimates Of the hay crop give
an average falling off Of the crop of
1878. as compared with that of 1872,
equal to six and one-half per cent,
and makes the total yield last year
in the above States nearly ten mil
lion tons
Reports from correspondents of
the Crop Reporter indicate an I'M
usually favorable condition of the
growing wheat in most sections, al
though in a few localities it is feared
damage will come by the alterna-
tions of freezing and thawing
weather,

most excellent method of passing
part Of an evening. The selection of a
book Of history, or travel, in which the
whole family would be interested, to be
read aloud is a most beneficial and sat-
isfactory way Of putting in the time.
The reading aloud the news Of the day,
talking about and over the lessons of
the children, should come in to give va
riety and interest. OF course study
should not be carried so far as to make it
tiresome, but if interesting subjects are
chosen it will take considerable to
cause weariness. As change, however,
innocent games, and puzzles, and plays
should be resorted to; yet We believe that
these may be secondary and still all the
pleasure and Interest be preserved.

Libraries.

The Importance of good library to
y neighborhood is something that can
not we'll be exaggerated. Every town
and if possible every school district
should have library. The expense to
each individual of obtaining, through a
circulating library, years reading
would>a We have before remarked be
but mere triae, yet BY the purchase
Of from thirty to forty standard books a
year it would take but short time to
create library ofwhich any community
might be proud. For the getting up of
a library, the organization of Grange
affords the very best opportunity. As
we have frequently we will let an ex.
change. the Farmers Advocate of
Kansas, a live Grange paper, speak for
us:
One Of the great and grand objects
OF the organization is to educate it's
members more generally and practically
in the different sciences pertaining to
their occupation. One Of the principal
causes which called the present move
ment into existence was the lack of ill.,
formation and education among the la
boring classes. They have always con-
tented themselves with performing the
labor Of cultivating the soil aud depend
ed upon its production for the mainte-
nance Of their temporal existence, never
stopping moment to ask whether or
not there Was not = way By which they
might realize greater results from their
labor. This awakening of the farmers
is having the desired effect, aud even
now tho advantages already aocruing
are very noticeable. But, Patrons, this
i only : beginning. Edxcat;os must
be tho watehword. When the fsrners

With eseA other for mutsat projection,
