RNtier In France.

If our dairymcn needs a spur, an eye
opener, - lesson which speaks volumes
in three words, here is one at tho head
of this article. Butter is actually brought
from France and sold by The New York
dealers. And this is thus because there
in actual scarcity in the market of good
butter PUT up in attractive shape tor
small consumers. When we know that
one ,dairyman gets Sl.25 4 pound for his
product, and another 81, and another %
cents the year round, at his dairy do,
IL is cas-. seen mat 1t will pay to bring
butter across the ocean from France, lift
is only good and shapely enough to suit
the fast;dious purchasers who Will have
something nice whatever it may cost.
All this butter is made from choice cows
ehoiceIy fed on clean, sweet food; the
milking is done in the cleanest man
ner. The milk is handled as carefully as
though it was nectar the cream is churn-
cd with utmost care by. clock and
thermometer, butter is worked with skill,
and is made up in shapeIy cakes which
do not require to be cut when brought
to the table. Compare then, this cake
hard, golden yellow, sweet, fragrant
and tempting to all the senses-yith an
unsightly chunk which is cut out of a
greasy keg and smells of old age and
rancidity, and is made from iIi-kept
cream from COWS filthy lodged and
carclessly MIXED, and is churncd any
way,and the difference is amply account

STICK TO YOUg PARTY.

We notice that several prominent
grangers have come out emphatically
against the organization of - new par
ty. They claim that tho fundamental
planks of the Grange platform become
destroyed; that the organization falls to
the ground and fails OF its purpose, when
the members have allowed themselves 10
be .oaded on by this spot OF gold.
They say the Grange is not political or
sanization, and tina, the members should
go to their own county conventions,
whether Republican or Democratic, and
endeavor to nominate the best men tor
Office. As long as the grangers enter
tain such sensible views, they will be
enabled to WELD sufficient power in the
respective parties to which they belong,
to control great reformatory influence ;
but as soon as they depart from this line
Of action. they will become split and dis
organized by the camp-tol!owers and
Saas cui!ottes who have been thrust from
the two leading political organizations,
and who are using every means to make
the grangers their plant tools.

Noah EavIs'S Model.

The following address OF an eloquent
Kansas Judge to one Brumlcy is conjec-
iured to be the original OH which Noah
Davis's grandiioIucn, Grafton to Tweed
was modelled
"Brumlcy, YOU infamous scoundrel,
youare 40 unrcdeemed villain. ion hain't
i single redeemlng trait in your charac-
ter. Your wife and family wish we had
sent YOU to the psnitentiary. Tais is
the fifth time have had you before me,
and you have put me TO more trouble
than your neck is worth. I've cxhorted
and prayed over you long enough, you
scoulijreI. just 90 home and take one
glimpse at your family, and be oil in
short order! Don'i let's ever hear OF
yen again. The grand Jury have found
other indictments against you, but Ill

zarcc and If keieh you IN this neck
OF wood, to morrow morning 1T day

and bamv you off to Jacksonville IN less

Ii ever catch you crossing your fingers
at "a man, woman or child-while or mig
scr-I'll sock you right into the jus.
stand up, yon scountrel, while l pass
sentence on you" The Judge while
delivering this solemn charge to the
prisoner could hardly conceal his emo
ton, and there was scarcely dry eye
anon. the audience in court. Brumiry
himself seemed to be the least affected
Of all pre- sent on tho occasion.

Horace greeley and william CylIcn BRYANT.

The writer of the New York Posts
article, some fifteen years ago, to which
Greedy replied, "You lie, you william,
you lie," was not Bryant, bat his prrnci-
pal editorial assistant, John Bigelow,
who was our minister 10 France during
the war. Biselow was naturally indis-
nan; over the language, but Bryant was
excessively inscensed 4, IT, and ne. ger
atterward, on any occasion, would re-
cognizc Greeley, or speak to him. Bry-
ant and Greeley frequently happened to
&c together At public meetings, and Bry-
ant more than cncc made illusions which
Greeley must have thought were mean:
for his ears, but Greeley never savo the
least sign Of taking ofsensc at such times.
They were together some five or six
years ago at u dinner given to Senator
Casserly at Delmonico's, and Bryant
with belligcrent and trcnchant look in
his face, and in that peculiarly high and
metallic tone of voice to which he some
times resorts, warned Casscriy against
those "pro .tec-tloa-ist cor no-rdnts'
whom he would meet IN his political
career. At these words Greeley hung
his head like blushing girl, took H.
tic water TO moisteh hik lips, and soon
made speech filed with mos,
excellent humor about things in general,
but with no illusions to protection or
tree trade.

He walked or q higher plane than Mr..

Rev. Byron Sunderland, chaplain TO

The Late Senator Summers First Bar in
W2Shlngt0o.

Senator Sumner recently met an old
friend who enjoyed the honor OF being
the only man in Washington to live in
the same house with him when, in 1884,
the future senator first visited the capt.
tai. THE was Dr.. Blake, president Of
the metropolitan bank, aud member of
the board OF public works. DR.. Blake
was boarding at the house of MIR. Pey-
ton, at the corner OF the Avenue and
Four-and-a-halfstrcct, when young Sum-
ner, tall, fresh and BOstonian, came there
10 lodge. He had just seen the frs,
slave on the stage-road between Wash
ington and Baltimore, and regarded him
with wonder, curiosity and indignation.
Before the guests had made up their
minds what kind Of u youth he might be
the marshal Of the supreme court stop
ped with his carriage and left the cards
Of all the justices for him, formaiity
which made no little talk. This courte-
sy was due TO Judge Story, whose pupil
Mr.. Sumner was, and who had advised
him al the termination of his studies 10
attcnd the supreme court and get tho
spirit and association of that tribunal.
At that time all the judges messed to-
gcther in Mrs. Carriers boarding. house,
which WAS recently torn down TO ex-
tend the capitol grounds. They drank
what was called the Judicial MADEIRA, an
island, which George Washington or
dered through the port Of Alexandria,

order. the shippers picked out quito 81
