An outdoor quiet held the earth
Beneath The winter moon,
The cricket chigped in cory ninth,
And The kettle crooned upon tho hearth,
A sweet old-iashioned tune.
The old clock licked drowsy race,
With the chipping Of the cricket,
And rcd Goals in the chimney.place
Peeped out, with many rosy face,
Like berries in a thicket.
The crane arm empty, stuck out stiff
And tinware on the shelves
Twinkled and vinked at every CLIFF,
In the pickering 6re-light as if
They whispered to themselves.
The good dame, in her ruffled cap,
Counted her stitches slowlys
And the old man, with full many gap,
Read from the Big Book on his lap,
The good words wise and holy
The old clock licked the old man read,
His deep voice pauzing, lowering;
The good wife nodded, dropped her head
The lids Of both we're heavy as lead
They wore sound asleep and snoring.
Oh, hale old couple sweet each dream,
WhiIs-all the milk pans iilting-
Puss paints her whiskers in the cream,
TIL John and the belated team
Bring Maggie from the quilting
May time, pray, when failing years
Make thin my voice and thrapple,
Find my last day Of life like theirs,
As sweet with children's love and prayers,
And like winter apple.

This Is precisely what great many
good people complain of-that this system
Of drainage is 50 complete and effective,
Railroads, middlemen, mechanics, manu-
iacturers, merchants, mOnopolies Of all
sorts, all have laid pipe throughout the
agricultural domain, whereby they draw
out Of those who till it the very essence
and fruit Of their labor, The row is legi-
innate Contra pipes are being laid.
This is proper. Agricultural drains are
being filed up, This is right The
outgo is being checked This is good
Irrigation is being substituted for this
leakage, and the water is held in reserve
for future use. This is wise. We won
der IL it would be safe for this modest
editorial pencil to point out some Of the
drains that reach into the agricultural
pocket that are too frequently overlooked
by those who complain most For in
stance
/. Buying land that is not needed and
running in debt for it, when that already
possessed is not half stocked nor rendered
half as productive as it ought to be.
2 MOrtgaging the farm to build new
and pretentious house that is not adapted
to the farmers wants, when the old one
may be made comfortable and convenient
without mourning debt.
3. Running in debt for costly carpets
aud furniture for the said new house, in
order that its "style" may equal some other
mans home.
A. Buying Eve or eight hundred
dollar piano, in order that a beloved
daughter of twelve to sixteen years may
waste her time and neglect her education
in more important matters.
5. Running in debt for costly carriages
in which to ride over roads that arc a
disgrace to civilization,
6. Sending the daughters away to
expensive boarding schools, where they are
fought everything, nearly, except what
they will need to know when they shall
have become wives aud mothers and the
boys away to some university or college,
where they learn how to squander money,
row boat or play at ball, it may be, aud
that they are too refined to soil their hands

cords and muscles handling pillow,
Z, Running for local Office aud doing
the dirty work Of, and spending money for
some pretentious politician who is supposed
to have "inauence at Headquarters, thus
wasting both time and money that should
be employed 10 farm Improvement.
8. Employing carpenters to build ex-
pensiyo, fancy, iillagree fence about and
in front Of the house, while the fences on
the balance of the farm look as if a cyclone
had just swept over them.
8. Running in debt, unnecessarily,
under any circumstances.

Why Join the Grange.

There are many reasons. The Grange
is means of national aud highly beneii-
cial social employment. The farmer lives
mainly ALONE, he sees few people. his wife
sees less, he attends few lectures, he hears
little music, he goes to few parties, he
visits little; he has other employment, but
he lacks in social life; he grows dull; his
children, as they grow up, tire of the lone
illness of the Country, and HE them away
to the city. The Grange makes social
centre; and has special attractions; it gives
him something to do, and interests him in
the doing of it. A good Grange, well con-
Quoted, is eminently an enlivening and
an enjoyable place "Iron sharpeneth
iron, SO man sharpenoth the countenance
of his friend" 1T is not good for man
to be alone
The Grange is means Of valuable in
struction. When farmers meet together
they naturally talk. They talk of their
business as farmers, Of the markets, of the
expressions Of monopolies, the rate Of in
terest, the prospects Of the Patrons move
ment, in short, Of everything that interests
them as men. A few days since two good
farmers sat here at our table and talkei
Of the relative value Of the different breeds
Of hogs, of their proper care, then Of other
stock matters, and SO on; all of us were
instructed by their talk SO of everything,
and particularly at the Grange meetings
good farmers win find valuable instructions
in the mutual interchange of views and
the relation Of their experiences.
The Grange is means Of large saving
in business Already, through the State
and County ageneies, a vast amount of
farm machinery and other supplies have
been purchased by the farmers, at greatly
reduced prices and are now making for
still further reductions and yaster transac-
tons Cooperative stores have been
started, insurance companies organized,
elevators built, and agencies for the sale
Of farm products established. All this
tends to save money for the farmer and to
teach him habits of business.
twill not do for farmers to conclude that
simply joining the Grange win render
them rich and happy. Joining the Grange

ACCIDENTAL REVELATION or THE MURDER or
YOUNG woMAN-FoUND IN A BOX IN A RUNNING
STREAM.
NEwBURGH, N. y, Juno 2S.-Thc following is
the substance of story which will appear in
the Telegraph tomorrow morning few days
ago while some boys were playing along
stream of water running through tho property of
Mr.. Peter Gerow. at Plattslsl, Ulstor county,
they discovered a box measuring about "a feet
square and one foot in depth, submerged in
pool of water formed by the stream
and covered with flat stones. They
Immediately proceeded to satisfy their
youthful curiosity and took tho box from
its hiding place. On opening it, thoy were hor-
rifed to find therein the remains OF human
body in advanced state OF decomposition. The
boys then started with fright to inform their
parents of tho terrible discovery. Tho news
spread rapidly, and in an incredibly short time
the whole neighborhood WAS in high fever oil
excitement. On further examination OF the re-
mains, it was ascertained that they were those
of a female. judged to have beon when she
died about q years of age. How the body came
to be there il u deep mystery yet to DO solved.
1t, however, il much mutilated, and gives strong
evidence of violence having boon used to cause
death. No one answering to the description IL
missing from that locality. 1t is stated that the
Coroner, who has been notified, will nstigate at

WAaHISdroN, June 28,
Major Buford Wilson. Solicitor of the Trea-
sury, returned tonight, after All absence of over
month"; spent in advising with United States
officers engaged in the prosecution of whishey
frauds. He has visited all prominent places in
the West where illicit whiskev operations were
discovered. The evidence which tho Govern
ment had collected was laid before the proper
law officers and fully explained. All the casee
are in excellent shape. Tho only delay in
any quarter now arises from the fact
that most of the courts are in their Summon
recess. In all principal cities the chief members
of the Ring have been discovered, and much
valuable evidence has been secured Instances
have been discovered where Government ohi-
cials of prominence have been holding very sus-
picous relations with those they arc supposed
to be prosecuting, and tho public will sooii know
these gentlemen by their removals. Major
Conrad McGrew, arrested here on an
Indictment found in st. Louis charging him
with the bribery of q gauger to make
false returns, gave bonds for his appearance,
Gen. Burbrigo of Kentucky becoming one of his
sureties. The whisky establishment at Hamilton
near Cincinnati, has been seized for duplicating
packages. 50 Dumping" papers of the same
series were found in Cincinnati aud Indianapolis
