CONSISTENCY.

When Bidwell was q candidate for
Congress in 1868, Sargent took the
stump tor him, advocating his cleo
ton with the greatest zeal. In fact, he
distinguished himself SO much On the
stump as the advocate of Bidwell that
attention was turned to Sargent as q
probable successor at no distant day.
Well, Bidwell was elected, and made
IN honorable record in Congress. But
while Sargent ~ stumping the dis
trict for Bidwoll, whatever is true to-
day about his land title was true at
that time. Yet Sargent warmly es-
poused Bidwell's cause, and urged his
election as the best man in his district.

An Italian of the above name was ar
rested for the crime. The evidence
against him was not conclusive, but as

signified a willingness to make a clean
breast of the whole affair. This he
was allowed to do in open court, where
upon Judge Mckinney sentenced him
10 imprisonment for the term of his
natural life. Following is
D~aderacco's Confession.

FARM AND GARDEN
English Ivy.

The use of English Ivies for the pur-
pose of decorating living rooms is more
extensive every year and cannot be toe
highly commended. Being very strong
they will live through any treatment; but
study their peculiarities and manifest will
lingncss to crafty them, and they will
grow without stint Many houses are too
hot for them, as indeed they are for their
owners. Neither plants nor people should
have the temperature over 65 dogs. Fair
enhet. Take care not to enfeeble yOur
ivies by Excessive watering or undue heat,
and you will see they will not seem to
mind whether the sun shines on them or
not, or in what position or direction you
train them. Indeed, so much will they
do themselves to render room charming,
that we would rather have an unlimited
number of them to draw upon than any
thing in nature or art. i'a
Do you wish the ugly plain doors that
shut off your tiny entry to be arched or
curved, like those in the drawing-rooms OF
your richer neighbor! Buy couple Of
brackets, such as lamps for the burning
of kerosene are sometimes placed in, and
screw them on the sides of the door. Put
in each plant of English ivy, the longer
the better; then train the plants over the
top, against the sides-indeed, any way
your fancy indicates. You need not buy
the beautiful but costly pots the flower
dealer will advise; common glazed ones
will answer every purpose, for by placing
in each two or three sprays of Coliseum
ivy, in a months time no vestige of the
pot itself can be discerned through their
thick screen. "f E21

ROOM where damp had prevailed for a
length of time, the affected parts inside

gohand in hand.-Journalof Horticulture.

had been divided into two watches dur

when one watch vas below and himself

by loud cries of murder He at once
secured two revolvers which he had with

the boy, with a view of preventing his
raising an alarm. One of them then got
behind the chief officer and struck him
heavy blow on the head with the spike,
telling him to the deck and breaking his
skull. They next proceeded to throw
the body overheard, but in the mean time
the second officer had come on deck, and
the three mutineers at once seized him,

never seen afterward. By this time the
boy had succeeded in liberating himself, |

THE LAwN.-There is nothing connect
ed with the farm house in the way of EN-.
beliishment that gives it so much charac
ter as beautiful lawn. Fill your from
Yards with roses, snow-drops, clematis
beds of ANIMALS and evergreens, and still
nothing is so neat and attractive as
smooth piece of velvet lawn. Yet hoy
| few rural places can boast of fine piec
of lawn. The tMth is people do mo-
s know ~ nov 1ssl % X A lawn to be perfect
must be green al the summer long In
our arid climate this can only be approx
mated by making very deep soil-not six
inches ora foot in depth, but three or four
feet. With this deep foundation and a
smooth surface, little grass seed and a
lawn mower, we are in condition to pro-
nuce premium piece of lawn. The grass
seed should consist of equal parts of red
.op and Kentucky blue grass; it should
DC sown thick, perhaps at the rate of three
pusneis per acre, or even more. As soon
as the grass is sufficiently started the
mower should be used at least once
week In the growing season. A surface
urcssing OF fine hen manure or night soil,
mixed with pulyerized muck, should be
even eveeC fan to keep the soil in good
neart. Upon this plan any one can have
