auspices of the Grand Commandery of the
State, came off last night at the Exposition

The night was just such night as could be
desired-a better one could not have been
procured by contract with the clerk of the

favored with an invitation attended, and the
knowledge that they would do SO attracted the
Steiner sex, and the result was one of the
grandest balls Of the season.
The event Of the night was the grand drill

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27-AIr. Thurman re-
viewed at some length the circumstances at
tending the election in Louisiana in 1872 as
well as the last election, and read frequently
from the report Of the Senate committee in
regard to the frauds of the Lynch Returning
Board.
He commented upon the message of the
President in reply to the resolution of the
Sth inst, and said paper more full of omis-
sions of material facts never emanated from
Chief Magistrate of this country. He argued
that the dispatches of Gen. Sheridan were
one sided and did not tell the truth.
He replied to the charges of Southern out
RACES, and said great majority of the homi-
cides in the South were committed by the
blacks upon blacks, and were not by the
whites upon the blacks, as had been charged.
In conclusion, he said it was bad thing to
assassinate man, but a worse thing to assas-
sinate the constitution of State. These acts
of the military in Louisiana have driven n
dagger to the heart of free institutions in
this country.

urers for their daily work are feeling

OREGON has new cereal which looks
like wheat, rye and barley, and isn't either
of them, and the " leading agriculturists"
of the State are puzzling themselves about
it. Its history is strange. About four
years ago farmer living in Tilamook
County, Oregon, killed a wild goose, in
whose crop he found peculiar-looking
grain. He planted it; it multiplied Won
derfully, and he subsequently raised forty
bushels ON half an acre of land. Its
growth is peculiar, from seven to ten
stalks springing from one root. The kerr
mel is very thin and compact, of bright
straw color and extremely hard.
AMONG recent industrial developments
in Germany is the hollow iron furniture,
which has been popular for years in Aus
tria. In Germany, however, it is only
quite lately that the first large factory for
making this class of goods has been
opened. Ribbon iron of the best quality
is selected for this purpose, and converted
into tubing in pieces of about sixteen feet
in length, which can be bent cold into any
form suitable for the making of bedsteads,
do rs, tables, etc. Hollow iron is stronger
and lighter than the solid iron which has
usually been employed in this way, and
it also possesses the important advantage
of holding the rivets better and of not
breaking so easily as solid iron, the latter
frequently giving way when there is a
1aw.-Erchange.
PAPER may be rendered exceedingly
hard and tenacious by subjecting the pulp
to the action Of chloride of zinc. After it
has been treated with the chloride it is
submitted to a strong pressure, by which
it becomes as hard as wood and as tough
as hide, the hardness varying according to
the strength of the metallic solution. The
material thus produced can be
easily colored. 1t may be employed
advantageously in the covering of floors,
and affords a substitute for leather in the
manufacture of coarse shoes: it likewise
furnishes a substance valuable for work

The sprouts of the potato when ana
lyzed are found to contain vegetable al
kaloid called by chemists soZanaaae,
which is very poisonous. Solanine is OBJ
tanned from various species of the solanum
genus of plants comprehending the pota-
to, tomato, nightshade, etc. This aka
loid does not exist in the tubers unless
they are exposed to the light and air. If
potatoes remain for any length Of time
aftershaving been dug in too bright a
light or if the earth is accidentally removed
from them in cultivation, they are changed
by the chemical action of light and be-
come green in color, which is owing to the
presence of solanine. Potatoes of black
ish-green tint are good for seed, and it
is claimed by some that the poison they
contain is sure preventive of decay but
they should never be cooked for the table.
If they are boiled in large quantity of
water and the water carefully drained off,
they may be fed to stock.-Cor. Amerscon

ton and raw.boned system of treatment
Instead of beginning to fatten just at the
last stages of an amin ais life the work
should be commenced as soon as it is
born, at least so far as preserving a good
growing, healthy condition right onward,
without any interruption, through winter
and summer. Farmers who practice on this
plan make the larges. profits and can dis
pose of their herds at any time for high
prices. Their less successful neighbors
term them Railways lucky" but do not
seem to be aware of the truth of the old
saying that {" Diligence is the mother of
good luck"
At this season of the year great many
farmers put an old COW, heifer or steer in
field alone to be fattened. The better
way is to allow such an animal to run
with the cows during the day and at night
put him in shed or stable well ventilated
and give him or her comfortable bed of
straw and a feeding of meal.-N. r.

THERE is an impression that relations
between Japan and Corea are rather
strained. The two countries are separated
by narrow sea, and intercourse between
them has been always intimate. Some
200 years ago the Japanese invaded Corea
and rendered it tributary, bit this tribute
has been latterly refused, and good deal
of negotiation has been going on. Gun
boats and emissaries have been going and
returning, and it was reported that to the
great indignation of the japanese, the
Corean Government had refused to receive
their ENJOYS. A Japanese paper now
gives curious report of the reason
alleged to have been given for the refusal.
This is said to have been none other than
the fact of their having presented them
selves in modern European costume in
stead of the old court dress which ENJOYS
from Japan formerly wore. The Coreans
said: eve do not object to receive you,
but we detest all that is tainted with the
customs of Europe. Resume your ancient
dress and we will acknowledge you. As
you are now attired we shall decline to do
