Assassination Threatened.

A Washington special to the Albany
Evening Journal says that President
Grant read on Friday and Saturday
mornings four letters threatening him
with assassination. Many opponents at
Washington and at Baltimore openly
say that he deserves the fate of Lincoln.
Saturdays National Republican says
one of the would-be assassins warns the
president to make bis peace with God,
as he will surely meet the deserved fate
of Abraham Lincon. Attorney General
Williams has received letter threaten
ing him with assassination. The letters
threatening the assination of the Presi-
dent were written and mailed at Norfolk,
Va. The administration has no cause
to regret its course on the Southern ques.
ton, and will not recede from it.
- In 1856 under democratic presi-
dent the United States troops were fore
ed to disperse the legislature of Kansas
in the interest Of the slave power and
not democrat protested. In 1875 the
troops were improperly used to expel six
illegally seated members of the Louis
lana legislature, and the same democrat
ie organs are in a state of frenzy Con-
sistency is evidently not democratic
jewel.--Hartford Coowant.
The AMERICAN NEWSPAPER DIRECT
DRY is an epitome of newspaper history.
1t is also regarded as an official register
of circulations This feature requires
the closest scrutiny to prevent it from
leading to abuses. The plan, adopted by
the publishers of the DIRECTORY, to Sc.

rigid in its requirements and adhered
to with impartiality Successful publish

comparison, are generally prmpt, not only
to send reports in continuity but give
Messrs. George p Rowell & Co. such in
formation as enables them to weed out
unsubstantiated statements of pretenders
in journalism. The popularity of the
book, and the general confidence Of its
accuracy and good faith are attested by
the immense body of advertisements it
receives.
-Harper's Weekly. referring to the
Louisiana question, pithily says The
vehement assertions of newspapers which
have pre-judged the case are of no i'm

protest against Sheridan's dispatch con-
corning the anarchic condition of things
in Louisiana are coming out with asser-
tons that their names were used without
authority.
= The New York Times, speaking OF
the Indignation meeting in that city,
says it has been informed that on Satur-
day John Kelly made arrangements for
at least two hundred and fifty men from
each Assembly districtto be sent to Coop

meeting has been engineered by the
very democrats who often figured in an
unfayorable light before the public dur
ing the war.

A We rmont Tenant Farmer.

Mr.. z. e. jameson thus writes to the
New England Farmer:
In Irasburgh, E. A. Leach owns two
farms. He lives on the one near the
village, and the other he has rented for
several years, to different persons who
have not, as general thing, gained
much money by farming. This year,
Mr.. Niles has it for five hundred dollars:
he also pays the taxes, which are about
S64 more. / called there Saturday last,
to see his nice calves-six Devon heifers.
which he had raised this year, on sour
milk, and which he would not sell for
500. ! saw, also, twenty three cows
which he has MIXED the past summer,
an Ayrshire bull that he kept through
the summer, and other items of interest,
and gained the following items in re-
gard to the income this year:
Mr.. Niles began in March his income from
. butter he assures me, win be, sl2OOoO
~ bushels potatoes, 1850
2O oats, 1000
Corn in the ears, 1875 bushels $3.50
calves, I50 m
pigs. 5000
sl892.5O
All this he can sell, if he chooses, and
most Of it will be sold, or, like the
stock, remain on the farm and increase
in value. was much surprised to re-
ceive so favorable statement 1t APP
pears that he will have about $1,000 for
his labor and expenses. Most of the
work has been done by himself and fam
lily, hiring little, except in haying. He
is well satisfied with his years work, and
is especially pleased with the grade
Devon COWS for making butter. Early
in spring, he made eighty-six pounds in
one week from eleven cows.
| think some men might have taken
the farm and so managed it as to ex-
pend all the income, and be SO dissatis-
fled with farming that the life of a me-
chanic or day laborer would be preferred.
/ am glad to find farmer well pleased
with his success, when so many are find
ing fault.

gressional Committee ON business affairs
in way not satisfactory to the White
Leagues, fifty illustrates the ostracism
prevailing there. He has been CON-
PEELED, in consequence, to resign as Pres
ident of the Chamber of Commerce. He
is President of the Louisiana National

have lately withdrawn their funds. He
may have to resign that position also.
