SO in other parts of the South the agents,
presumably, Of the Hot Springs conspirators,
are secretly plotting to instigate negro riots,
so that by ingenious Misrepresentation the
Northern people will be made to believe that
the liberties Of the blacks are in danger, and
that the Republican party must be sustained
in order that they may be saved. Exposure
oftheir Vaccinations is the antidote. Nobody
at the North IS going wild over alleged rebel
outrages in the South, when il is known that
a job TO help the decaying Republican party
is at the bottom Of the trouble.

QUAIL SHOOTING AND BREEplNg-A
letter from Washington in Turf, Field and
Farm, says Il stated some weeks ago
that the prospect for quail this season was
unusually good. / find from personal oh.
seryation, as well as from the statement of
Others, that both the States of MARYLAND
and Virginia will abound with them. The
District Of Columbia we never count much
on. We have population Of about thirty
thousand negroes and half as many vac.
rant whites, almost all having old muskets
or cast away shot guns, and all impressed
with the idea that hunting is the best
amusement in the world and the only
means of subsistence in the Fall.
They infest the country like lice, and
while not being able to kill game, except
now and then by chance, they Brighten ii
away and make it so wild that it IS no sat
isfaction TO hunt it. / am little curious
to see the result of an experiment of Mr..
Frank Rives, Of the Congressional Globe
He has imported from Kentucky fifty pair
Of quail and turned them loose upon his
farm, mile or SO from the city. / am a
little inclined to think that it will prove
failure as to propagating a great number
of birds, unless they were taken by care
from number of different coveys. Nv
experience is that birds of the same coyey
do not intermingle or pair generally. [
find in hunting over the same ground
every year that covey Of birds will be
found in about the same place they were
in the same field the year previous, and
that ii will be large in proportion to the
number Of old birds left over. There may
have been six pair left over, and they do
not seem to mate, but simply unite with
the young brood of the breeding pair. 1
would like to hear from some one who has
more experience and more knowledge of
the habits of the bird than | have as to
how they do pair and breed.

According to the Charleston, Is. ca

a poor woman living at the foot of the Blue
Ridge Mountains in 0conee county, South
Carolina, walked the other day from her
home to the residence Of her father, near
Pendleton, distance of thirty-four miles,
carrying her baby, six months old and
weighing twcnty-one pounds, in her arms.
She left home ut about six o'clock in the
morning, and reached her fathers at five
o'clock in the afternoon, making an aver
age of little more than three miles an
hour for eleven consecutive hours, over
q mountainous, billy aud rough road, with
the thermometer standing at ninety-six
degrees most Of the time. No other mo-
tive induced the walk than her desire to
see her parents. Considering the sex of
the performer, the weight carried, the dis
lance, the time, the nature of the road, the
temperature Of the weather and the alb
sence Of an exciting motive, this walk
has scarcely parallel in the history of pc
destrianism. Mrs. Baldwin is about TWEEN
ty-six years Of age, rather below the madi-
um height, thick set, and the mother of
four children. Let us hear no more Of the
