A man by the name of Shiplev was
killed at Milan, Grundy county, last
week. The Republican says he was
drinking and making some disturbance
in il of the saloons and the Sheriff
went in to arrest him. When the Sher-
if had got him as far as the door he re-
fused to 90 any farther, turned around
and commenced shooting p~romiscuously
into the saloon. wkeu the saloon keep
er shot him. He was a notorious bad
character and had been Il party to the
killing of two me some years ago.
The same paper adds: a report has
been in circulation about town to the
effect that Il man was killed near Mo-
dena one evening last week. The re-
port says the young people had collect
ed at 4 dancing party where some mis-
understanding arose between a Young
man by the name of Miller and the
young MAJ who was killed, whose name
we did not learn. They retired from
the room with one or two others and
drew their coats to fight. when Miller
drew Il knife and cut his antagonists
throat. No attempt was made at the
time to arrest him, so that he left and
has not been heard of.

THE LEGISLATURE.

This body has accomplished little 50
far, beyond Organization. Mr.. Boone,
Of Henry county. has been elected Speak
er Of the House, and the usual commit
tees been appointed in both branches. A
resolution has passed both Houses, by a
strict party vote, to appoint u committee
Of thirteen to inquire into the state of
affairs in Louisiana, and report what
means are necessary to end the prolonged
troubles in that State.
Gov. Hardin was inauguratcd on the
18th, before. a densely packed House.

Of office, and delivered a short Inaugural
Address
The election Of a United States Scna-

Governor Hardin in his inaugural
Address, on the 18th, among other
things, said that "thc cost of lcgisla-
ton during last four years is estinat-

little to show that could not have
been dispensed with.

posed as unnecessary. If needed in
case q new constitution should be
adopted the Executive can call tie
General Assembly together. He ur-

fees of all officers. and the abolition
of every unnecessary office. He re-
commcnds that the number of the
Grand Jury be reduced 80 twelve,

GEe DELEGATES to the Republican Con
v|cntion at Forest City, on the 18TH, to
nominate candidates for Delegates to the
Constitutional Convention, met and per
formed their duty. Harmony and I'M
animity prevailed throughout. Each of
the four counties comprising the district
was represented. The choice Of the Com
vcntion fell upon Malcolm Mckillop, Il
banker Of AtchisOn and judge L. E..
Johnston, OF Nodavay- 60. The nomin-
ccs are cminently WORTHY Gf the position;
each isa useful member Of society, taken
from the active walks of life, and each
possesses large practical experience, and
clear, discerning Judgment. They will
fulfil the trust creditabiy to themselves
and with advantage to the State.
y willingness was expressed by the
Convention that Holt county should
have one of the nominees, but owing to
local diSsensiop thc delegates could not
agree upon a EaH.
Perfect satisfaction is expressed by
the delegates with the selections made,
and from what We learn, the Republican
strength will be.east unitcdly for them.
Now is the time, at this election, for all
Republicans who cling to the principles
Of the party. and desire to advance the

cy, to harmonic together, and give eff
cheney to their s~entiE2ents BY placing

SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION IN HAY.-There are
doubtless many farmers who have experienced
sudden and destructive conhagratiens in their
hay-lefts, which could not be ascribed to any ex-
terror agency. Barns have been known to burst
into flame, almost without warning, save per-
haps significant odor, for few days previous
~, around the places where the hay was stored,
and a summers harvest is swept away in as many
minutes as it had taken days to gather it. These
unexpected cenfagrations are generally accredit-
ed to tramps who have made the hay-loft their
sleeping resort, but it is now asserted that such
ealannitias e.Asr4>sly- 1---I- 49, laasvus
combustion of the hay, circumstance tAeoreti-
cally quite possible, but rarely considered. Alb
be Moigno in Les Mondes, gives the following as
the theory of the phenomenon Hay, when
piled damp and in toe large masses, fermentsand
turns dark. In decomposing, sufficient heat is
developed to be insupportable when the hand is
thrust into the mass, and vapors begin to be
emitted. When the water is almost entirely
evaporated, the decomposition continues, and the
hay becomes carbonized little by little; and then
the charred portion, like peat peat cinders mixed
with charcoal, sulphureus pyrites and Ignite,
etc., Becomes kind of pyrOphorus, BY virtue Of
its great porosity and of the large quantity of
matter exposed to high oxidation. Under the
influence of air in large amounts this charcoal
becomes concentrated on the surface to such
degree that the mass reaches temperature which
results in its bursting into flames. The proven
tives for this danger are care that the hay in the
lofts is kept perfectly dry, that it is welpscked,
and that it is stored in small heaps rather than
in large masses.

RICE PIE.-Take cold rice, cooked in milk;
add sufficient cream to make quite thin; mash
it with wooden or silver spoon till free from
Jumps. Beat up four eggs very light-yolks
and whites separately; sweeten to suit your
taste, and pour in the eggs-the whites last;
stir we'll; cover deep custard or pumpkin
pie-plate with pastry, pour in the rice, and
bake, but not long enough to make the custard
watery. Rice pie should be made thick, and
eaten when fresh, but not till after it is cold
Children are fond of it, and may be allowed as
much as they wish.

in large masse;

MARKETING CATTLE.-There has one time or an
other been great deal of both humane and COM
mon sense, and sound business principle violated
in the treatment of cattle, from the time they
leave the country to be sent to market until they
are disposed of. Sometimes they have been trea-
ted to an excessively large feed of corn, so as to
heat them up and make them drink water Excess
sively, thus giving the seller good weights when
the animals are sold. Sometimes they have been
well sailed for the purpose of stimulating the
drinking process. Sometimes cattle have ar
rived in our yards after good run on the cars,
and have been ordered off from water and kept
on hay, and sometimes corn, until Monday morn
ing, when they are expected to drink an amount
of water that will weigh at least fifty or sixty
pounds per head against the buyer. Quite a
number of cattle, one time or another that have
been thus treated, have died in the yards, or be-
fore they reach the eastern market after being
shipped. All abuses of this kind need reforma-
tien, for the very good reason it is both inhuman
and impolite to treat animals in this way. Hon.
ssty is the best policy; every good cattle buyer
knows at glance just the condition that cattle
are in for weighing, and he will always make his
price accordingly-so that in nine cases out of
ten, while the owner of cattle treated in the man
ner referred to may congratulate himself on
having gained fifty to sixty pounds per head in
the weight Of his lot, the buyer has really taken
the difference of the price he has given, just as be
ought to do in every case OF the kind.
SUBURBAN SHEEP RAIs1NG.-Can any one grow
weol, mutton, lambs, meat, hides and talow,
with living profit, in a region where there is no
cheap land on which to grow then-where every
acre costs heavily, and then requires heavy ma
nuring before it will produce much Had we been
thus questioned one year ago, we should have
thought the querist very inexperienced. We now
take somewhat different view and to-day are
not quite sure bat that young men, with small
means but greater energy, might prove themselves
to be wise by undertaking this very business
within few miles of Boston or New York. No
enc, however should undertake such an enter
prise singlehanded and with slender means, how
ever industrious, resolute, and sound IN judy
ment he might be. But two or three young
men, of just the right stamp, might do comforta-
bly, well the first year and make money the
second, by forming partnership. In the case
of two partners, let one turn butcher and the 9th
er a market gardener, and let them serve the adj
jacent population to meats and vegetables. The
ofal of the butcher weuld enrich the soil of the
gardener to,the highest productiveness; and the
gentlemanly department of each would bring
custom to both. The garden would soon become
SO rich that one acre would be as good as two or
three were at first. In some cases three partners,
or at least an efficient assistant, working as any
emergency might require, would be found both
useful and profitable
