A WARMING FROM GRANT.

The NBw YORK HERALD thinks 1t is worth while
to print letter from Q Long Branch correspond

interview with liberal republican, in which the
former avowed his intention Of running for the
third term as an independent anttrepublican can
dldate on q platform OF universal amnesty, civil
service REFORM opposition to the Civil Rights bill
and Mr.. Windom's cheap transportation scheme.
General Grant Is not much OF an "avo Wern as the
American people well know.

Grant IL Not an idiot.
from the Hartford Courant--anti-Gra republi-

can
The informant OF the HERALD feels very certain
that his information IL correct and very important
to the republican party. It no doubt Is important
II true, for 1t would be an of1cial notification to
the republican party 10 prepare to attend its own
funeral; but unfortunately also 1t would be de-
ciaration to the democratic party that they need
give themselves no further concern about the
campaign OF 1875; they would only need to nOmin-
nate lalr, honest man and walk over the course.
But there Is patent difficulty In accepting the
language reported as that OF General Grant; he
is not an Idiot and n he did cherish any hope OF
another term he would not show his hand In such
Q bungling manner.
washingtsn's Example the Only Safe
[From the Lyons IN. ~ Republican republican.l
The question Of o third term for President Grant,
which was At nrst secuted pretty generally as an
absurdisy, has at last taken shape so tangible a.
to justify At least protest. The agitation was
begun BY the NEW YORK hxRALD and has been
continued cniefy In democratic circles. The peo.
pie have jealous eye upon the future OF the coun-
try, because they see In the example OF washing
ton the only rule OF safety against the usurpations
OF Cesar; and because OF this they will rebuke
the effort TO place even General Grant on such q
pinnacle OF power, though showing him TO be In
character and aspiration the furthest removed
from Cesar OF any among the illustrious men
whom the nation has delighted to honor.

stTO0 Late"

From the Hartford Times-democratic.1
General Grants bid for democratic and conser-
vatlve support comes too late. He cannot wipe
out his Presidential record Of aid and supp ort to
the plundering hordes who rule the Southern
States, and democrats are not likely TO forget it.
The HERALD's interview with Grant at Long
Branch has, at least, produced a sensation. The
TACT that the defenders or the President find it
necessary to publish cOlumnlong articles or ex-
planaton, and defence indicate that there is con-
Seriousness thar U. s. G. really may be planning for
a third term.

Grant To Boat Grantism.

From the Elizabeth IN. J.l Herald-democratic.
According to the NEW YORK HERALD's Long
Branch correspondent the President OF the United
States has already intimated his Willingness to
run as the candidate Of an independents
movement for third term. It would
be q very singular combination of cir
cumstances, indeed, that would lead any
political party In this country to make use OF
Grant to beat Granttsm. Il Is the character OF the
hero and not the hero himself that IL on trial.
There has never been breath from the Executive
which indicates that he Is not heartily and stub
borny In accord with the policy which he has
represented and, setting aside the latent treason
OF the third term principle, he could never be the
candidate OF any but those BY whom he has been
heretofore supported. But the plans which bring
the south, the liberal republicans and the demo-
Gratis lnso the support OF Grant for third term
are "a harmless as the exhalations OF dream.

Great Rejoicing Over the Anti-Civil
Rights Triumph.

KNOXVILLE, August Z 1874
The election in Knoxville and throughout Knox
county yesterday was the most exciting for many
years. Horace Maynard made two speeches dur
ing the canvass, indorsing the Civil Rights bill as
party measure, Senator Brownlow was openly
hostile to the bill, which he termed the sum OF VII
suit OF the election was q complete revolution
throughout the city and county, with sweeping
majorties for the conservative, anti-civll rights
ticket. The city was wild with Joy last night and
the country people are crowding into the town to-
day rejoicing over the une exampled victory.

THE TENNESSEE ELECTION.

The Conservative Victory Greater than
At First Reported.
MEMPHIS, August T. 1874
The conservative victory Of yesterday is much
larger tnan was supposed by the most sanguine
partisans, the conservatives having carried every
ward in the city except the Fifth, which only gave
Q majority of 20 for the republicans. The conser-
vative majority In the city is S5oa, and the tota
vote over 10000 or about 1000 more than the Or
dinary VOTE This Is accounted for on the ground
OF the hostility to the Civil Rights bill and mixed
schools, and business seemed almost entirely sus-
pended-al went to the polls. The conservative
majority In this county will be over 1000.

FAITH AS \ REMEDIAL AGENT
The history Of medicine is filed with
accounts of instances of the supposed
discovery Of specifics for the cure of
intractable diseases. Many are the
specifics which ct one time and
another have been extolled as sure
cures of consumption, and their use in
the hands of their discoveries has been
attended by cases of remarkable cures.
The discoverer of the supposed spe-
ci6c possessed all confidence in its heal.
lug powers and prescribed it for others,
earnestly assuring them that he, at
last, had discovered the great remedy
against this terrible disease, and that
ne could surely cure them. Often
has it happened that thus a few cases
of actual consumption in its first
stages have been Inspired with the de-
gree of faith sufficient to cure them.
Then the fame of the medicine spreads;
and other physicians, having less con-
fdence in it, and who, as a matter of
course, could inspire less faith in
their patients, have prescribed the
remedy. The result has almost in
variably been that the remedy Jailed
10 effect such cures as it had been re-
puted to have produced, and it speed
lily fell into disuse.

How TO ESTIMATE THE PROFITS
OF A FARM.-The farmer lives in his
own house. The use Of the house,
which he does not pay for, is as much
part Of his income as the money
which a salaried man pays for rent, is
Of his, and should be counted as such
in an estimate of the profits of the farm.
All things produced on the farm and
consumed on the farmers table includ-
ing the vegetables from the garden,
the eggs and milk. used in cooking,
are as much a part of his income as
the money paid for such things out Of
his salary is Of the salaried man. If
a farmer gives his vile and children
a pleasant ride to town, using his own
horses and wagon the value of their
use is part Of his income from his farm,
as truly as the money the man pays out
of his salary for carriage hire is Of his.
The correct rule for estimating the in
come from farm is substantially this:
Give credit for evey article produced,
used, or expended in any way whatever
no matter how small in value, as we'll as
for cash'received for products sold, and
forincreased value offarm property, and
charge against the farm for interest on
capital invested, and for all expendi-
lures. The farmer that will do this
from year to year: will not so much feel
like complaining oft oftheunproftableress
of farming as compared with other pur-
snits. The fact is, not one in
Hundred farmers take into considera-
ton the luxury and comforts of fresh
eggs, butter, milk, fruits, etc., that they
would have to pay high prices for if
they lived in towns, Or DO without
them.

RArs.-To Danish rats plant aspho-
del near the barn or stable where they
are, or put some in their holes. Rats
have such an aversion to this plant
that they will quit the premises where
it is. II they are in drains or in eel
lars scatter sulphate Of iron (copperas)
in their runs. The copperas should
not be dissolved. It is our best and
cheapest disinfectant. The sulphuric
acid burns their feet, and they leave
in a short time without dying. This
will be appreciated by every house
keeper that has to endure the stencil
of 3 dead rat.

RoTAT1oN.-A judicious n d

RoTATIoN.-A judicious an d
careful rotation of crops is absolute
ly necessary in maintaining the fer
tility of the soil. This needs no
demonstration, for it is universally
admitted. But how to rotate to
secure the greatest advantages, IS
the main question. No specific
can be given to suit every case,
because circumstances alter
cases very much in regard to this
point. The system that would sue
ceed on one farm would utterly fail
on another, and vice versa. Gov
erned by general principles, the
farmer must decide the matter for
himself. Each crop extracts from
the soil the elements essential to its
growth and maturity, and by con-
tinuous cropping, howeverjudicious
the rotation may be, the soil will
eventually be exhausted. Hence
the elements distracted must be re-
turned to the soil in the shape Of
fertilizers. This settles one point
that farmers must keep stock,
and the nearer they come to keep
ing stock enough to consume what
their farms produce, the nearer
they come to the most improved
culture.
The usual rotation is from the
sod-corn, oats or barley, wheat,
and then grass. In good soil two
crops of wheat can be grown, clo-
yer being sown on the first, in.the
spring, which will furnish one crop,
and one to plough under for second
crop of wheat on which grass is
sown for future meadow or pasture
lands. A prominent agriculturalist
recommends the following six years
rotation First year, corn, pota-
toes, and roots, with ground heavi-
ly manured; second, oats; third,
clover ploughed in and sowed with
wheat in the fall; then timothy
and clover sowed on the wheat in
the spring Of the year; then let it
lie in grass two years.
Other systems of rotation have
their advantages suited to the sur
rounding circumstances of soil, eli
mate, etc. In wheat districts,
where the soil rests on limestone or
plaster, a simple rotation Of clover
two years and wheat one is found to
be good, always promising thatplen-
ty Of manure is returned to the soil.
