nostril, and then blow hard through the

pressing it up over the substance, pull it
down.

ITCH IN SHEEP.-A correspondent who
asks for remedy for itch in sheep, is in
formed that the following has been re-
commended: Shear off the wool about the
pustu1es: then let the scab be removed
with a knife or comb, after which the
diseased parts must be washed with soap
and water; then apply the following mix
ture: One pound of plug tobacco to four
gallons of water, which should be thor
0ughly boiled; then add the same quantity
of Iime-water with one pint Of spirits of
turpentine. or in these proportions if a
less quantity is needed. After the diseased
sheep is shOrn of its wool, as well as all
the sound ones, prepare decoction of the
above, and, with sponge, wash well the
entire body, which Will prevent re-
| currence of the disease, even if turned in
the old pasture-Ci71c5T11ldtS Times.
A GOOD authority on the culture of pea
nuts saws. "Select soil which is fertile
with sandy loan; plant about the usual
| time of planting corn; remove the husk
| from the seed before planting. Plant two
seeds in a hill, two inches IN depth, in
rows three feet apart and one foot apart
in the rows: keep the ground mellow and
| free from weeds. Some make ridges like
those prepared for sweet potatoes, but it
is not essential Level deep cultivation
will be the best, if the season is a very
dry one. The early cultivation may be
mostly done with horse power, but the
later working must be done with hand
hoe The Weld varies from fifty to one
hundred and fifty bushels per acre. When
dug, they should be spread to dry under
a roof, and those for planting kept from
freezing. a stout four pronged fork is
used for digging them.

independents

From the Chicago Tribune.
The word Independent" in the poll
tics of this year, will be liable to a double
and sometimes doubtful use, unless it be
kept in mind that the Independent Move
ment is itself but the aggregation of indie
pendent men, and that it encourages, and
must continue to encourage, personal
independence in every one. The indie
pendent candidates (above named) in
North Carolina and Kentucky are indie
pendent asindividuals In some States Gas
in Illinois, the Independents are organ
izing for concerted action, but they cannot
afford to adopt rules of party fealty and
party discipline OF the movement in
our own State, the Dan vile News say
The men interested in this Reform or
Independent movement are not sticklers
for party-they have no sympathy for
the watchword Our party, right or
wrong. < ! :; We predict that the coming
Springfield Convention will advise the
greatest freedom from party trammels,
and will recommend its supporters to use
their best judgment and not vote for men,
even if regularly nominated, unless such
candidates are honest and deserving men.

a Duel by .EoonIfghr.
I From the \. o. Bulletin.

From the n. O. Bulletin.
From private letter We learn the par
ticulars of the affray between Granville
B. Shaw, Sheriff of the parish of Yer
million, and P. Fontelieu, member of
the Kellogg Legislature.
1t appears that both Shaw and Fonte-
lieu we're at a concert in the town of Alb
beyille on the 31st of May, and were both
somewhat under the influence of liquor.
A quarrel ensued about some old grudge,
when Fontelieu challenged Shaw to go
out with him and measure off twenty
five PAGES and fight it out with their
revolvers-
Shaw Immediately accepted this re-
markable proposition, and the two, ac-
companied by quite a number of lockers
on, stepped outside measured off the dis
lance and commenced firing by the light
Of the moon, which was shining brightly at
the time. At the third fire, Fontelieu
fell, shot through the head, and from
the CHASTITY wound the brain was slowly
oozing, when his friends reached him. At
last accounts he was not dead, but the
physicians declared he could not live
forty-eight hours.
Fontelieu was about 50 years old, and
had been a member of the Warmoth
and Kellogg Legislatures.
