II wa. at Wilhamsyille, Iowa, that six
young men recently went out 10 serenade the
belle of the town. They had practiccd for
weeks ON the violin, the flute, the majestic
guitar. the soul-stTing accordion, aud the
plaiutye banjo. They waited until late at
night SO that the fair one might be wrapped
in dreams when the sound of their music
should break upon her ear. When they
reached the house, the hour being late, they
were tired and they discoursed their con-
cord Of sweet sounds while sitting ON the
sidewalk with their feet in the gutter. They
played until flowers were thrown to them
from the windows and they then undertook
TO rise and 60 home. CuiouSly enough, 10
man rose up, but each looked at his neigh
Dor with a contcnance of silent horror
Then one by one they broke into subducd
badness, and presently sound as of rend'
ing garments was heard, and the young men
fled madly away. Next morning those who
passed that way beheld the wrecks of sis
pairs of trowsers adhering to the sidewalk
and felt a new respect for the inventor Of tan
paycmcnts.

monty consumed, coffee and tea, especial
ly the latter. too generally used as oev-
erages, and water too often imbibed to

pork as an article of food, nine, OF twen-
nine medical observers affirmed that they
had noticed injurious effects attending its
use. and twenty that they had not, Only
one asserted that its use was beneficial.
The testimony adduced on the drinking
habits of farmers, in relation to intoXicat-
ing liquors, went to show that they more
than compare lavorably with other classes
in the community. The investigation dis
closed the fact that too many farms have
faulty drains, neglected privies and foul
cellars and barn-yards, and that the thing
needed to make the farmers of Massachu-
sets healthy and happy are better acquaint-
ance with sanitary laws and a little more
time to think of themselves.
Perhaps some of our farmers may be
benefited by considering the statements
above. The Importance Of good drainage
for houses and barns cannot be over-esti-
| mated here or there. The recommends
ton on this point from SO high authority
should excite deeper attention in this mat
ter than is usually given it.

MASSACHUSETTS, FARMERS.

An interesting paper appears in connec-
ton with the report of the State Board Of
Health of MISUNDERSTANDING to the
health of the farmers of that State. AS
the farmers of Maine are not unlike
the farmers Of our sister State, they will
be interested in learning the facts re.
ported concerning the latter. The Board
say that Massachusetts, farmers are
not rich as class owing to the freedom
with which they expend money on dress,
dwellings and education. The average
life Of the farming class is 65.l3 years,
which is l4.19 years higher than the av-
erage of those engaged in different occu-
pations. But the wives and children of
farmers are not longer lived than those Of
men engaged in other callings. This is
thought TO be owing to the excessive cares
and duties the former undergo, and the
Injuries that the later receive through over
work at tender age. The prevalent dis
eases in farming communities are found
TO be rheumatism, dyspepsia, fever, acute
lung affections and consumption, and they
prevail to a less or greater extent in the
order in which they are named. The un-
favorable influences peculiarly affecting
the health of these districts are found in
Over-exertion, combined with exposure
to the weather, improper diet, unwise To-
cation of dwellings, uncleanlincss in sur
roundings, impurity of wells, insufficient
and poorly-ventilated sleeping apartments.
and insufficient recreation. In DIR. Der
by's analysis Of the diet Of farmers, he
comes to the conclusion that good board is
TOO scarce, food too little varied and too

POLITICAL.

The Rhode Island Legislature has adjourned
till June 8, when it will come together again
to elect United States Senator.
1t is rumored that George Bancroft will
certainly resign the mission to Berlin TINS
summer, and that Bancroft Davis will sue
coed him.
Assistant Secretary Sawyer denies over his
own signature that Lucy Dawes of Massachu-
sets was discharged from the Treasury be-
cause her name was Dawes. He says there is
not one word of truth in the report to that eff
feet.
According to the Boston correspondent Of
the New York Tribune it is Mr.. Albert Cur
rier of Newburyport who will play the mis-
chief with Butler in his Congressional dis
trict. We seldom indulge in prediction, but
if General Butler runs he will be elected,
and one reason for it will be the contest for
the succession which will spring up. Many
of the candidates don't like Butler, but then
they don't like each other Boston Journal.
The unhappiness engendered in the demo-
cratic party by the financial question is disas-
trous, if we may judge by the expressions Of
the party organs. The Cincinnati Enquirer
remarks "The Western democrats desire no
money from the gold gamblers and bondhold-
ers of the Manhattan Club. They only want
them to keep their money at home, and not
employ it, as hitherto, in buying up corrupt
men in the South and West to sustain their
robberies."
The house judiciary committee has report
ed a bill for the relief of Susan b. Anthony,
renting the fine unjustly imposed upon her
by the judgment of the circuit court of the
United States for the act of voting. The
committee imputes no intent to do wrong by
Judge Hunt, but says that he erred in direct
ing the jury to give verdict against Miss
Anthony, the effect of which was to deprive
her of the great and benefcent right guar
anteed to her as strongly as to any other by
the Constitution of her country, to have the
question of her guilt passed upon her by her
peers.
| 1t is not the intention of Senator Morton to
| bring up for discussion or vote his proposition
| for direct election of the President and Vice
President by the people. He intends to make
| the question one of the matters for discussion
upon the stump next fall, and, in common with
q number of Senators who share his views, he
will try to have the matter considered early
next session with a view of having the neces-
sary constitutional amendment submitted to
the legislatures at their coming winter session.
