most celebrated collections Of the
Old World, and a school open to
all;the teachers OF the land.
ut is proposed that the teachers
and pupils Of the whole country
take part in this memorial, and

We lcarnfrom an exchange that
"the Legislature of Massachusetts
has lately liassed a law making it
necessary that dozen eggs weigh
one and one-half pounds" We
approve Of this. The hens have
too long Tad their own wav il this
business oflaying eggs, and they
have constantly defranded the pub
lie, 1t is high time this outrageous
monopoly was crushed, and we are
glad thai the Legislature of Mas
Sachnsettsis going to do it. ltfree
American citizens are to be imposed
upon with impunity by debauched
and corrupt chickens, the govern
ment for which William Penn
fought and John Hancock died is
a disgracefnl failure. Hereafter
Massachusetts, hells will either have
to lay two-ounce eggs or emigate.
The people will submit to their
tyranny no longer. They have
borne the yoke until it has became
unendurable. They denounce pres
ent prices for present eggs as
eggstortidn; Of hens they demand
a reform, with the determination to
draw up this chicken bill and pullet
through the Legislature.

The physical heroism displayed
by Casabianca in remaining upon a

in the face Of an extraordinary
opposition, stood alone by the
standard OF a leader, whose follow
ers are numerous though his friends
are few. Casabianca had but to
endure a few moments Of flame

burst OF thunder loud to scatter his
little body about as food for fishes

The new industrial Order known as the
Patrons of Husbandfy is still increasing
its numbers in Virginia. Additional
Oranges, the organization Of which We are
announcing from day to day in our columns
in different counties and sections Of the
State. continue to show that the farmers
are falling in with Il be movement more and
more as they see into its objects and reflect
upon the benefits to fow from it. There is
good reason, no doubt. for the formulas of
the Oranges prescribed as essential to ad-
mission into the Order. and as the means of
recognition among members thus enabled
through their ceremonies and signs to OBJ
serve the bond of brotherhood between
them But the aims and ends, the policy.
the cardinal doctrines, the desires and de-
signs Of the Patrons of Husbandry are in
volved in no mystery, concealed in no
cabalism, disguised: in no doubtful plat
form, expressed in no equivocal language.
They are openly, boldly and broadly de-
clared, and they are so full Of business and
fairness, of propriety and liberality, Of in
telligent adaptation to the times, and Of
plain, practical common sense, that none
can gainsay them: 1t is for these reasons
that the farmers movement is 80 successful.
1t is for these reasons that county after
county is falling into line with the Patrons
of Husbandry by establishing local
Oranges, encouraging the cause, and join
ing hands with the protectors and promot-
ers Of the interests Of agriculture and the
agriculturists. It is for these reasons that
this Order Of misunderstanding its way
onward with so little osteptation, so little
excitement, so little noisiness, but at the
same time with such rapidity and popu-
larity. 1t is remarkable, when we reflect
upon it, that the farmers did not long ago
establish organizations among themselves
for the maintenance of their rights and the
advancement Of their interests. But there
were causes for it, we suppose, peculiarly
pertaining to their habits Of life, their ac-
customed trains Of thought ensuing from
those habits, their comparative isolation
from the bustling world in which the wits
and wiles of men are made more effective
as weapons in the battles Of business, their
separation from one another, and the prim-
itiveness Of the vocation which they follow.
In coming together at last in council and in
cooperative action for their common good,
the farmers are demonstrating and utilizing
their intelligence and placing themselves in
a position Of such power and influence as
to be able to command an observance Of
their wants and wishes in the workings of
the machinery of trade, to enlarge their
acquaintance with the improvements, the
agencies and necessities of agriculture, to
elevate their standard of general intelli-
gence, and to increase their appreciation
and enjoyment of the amenities Of social
life among Observation-Disclosures Enquirer.

Editor Grange Advance:
send you few items from Viola
Grange, No. II. We have prosperous
Grange Of about one hundred MEMBERS
Meetings are held the second and fourth
Saturdays in each month. At the last reg
ular meeting in March there was large
attendance and the members enjoyed a
"feast,'' such as is seldom equaled. The
Agency" question was discussed and it
was the expression:of the Grange that the
agents of the Order should be sustained,
and the sum of 500 was appropriated to
sustain the county agency, and $500
loaned to the State Agent. At the regular
meeting of the Grange on the 11th inst,
considerable business was transacted. The
report of the action taken recently by the
Executive Committee of the State Grange
at Winona was read, after which the follow
ing was unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, The State Grange at the ses-
sion held in Faribault, recommended the
Farmers Fire Insurance Association -
Of Minneapolis, to the patronage Of the P.
Of H. Of this State, and
WHEREAS, The Executive Committee of
the State Grange have caused the affairs Of
said Insurance Company to receive q
thorough examination, and have pronounced
its plan Of insurance unsafe, and its finan-
cial condition unsound; therefore,
Resolved, As the sense of this Grange
that We do not hold ourselves, as farmers
and Patrons, under any obligations> what
ever to patronize said Insurance Com>any.
