THE LOUISIANA COMPROMISE "A number
of the Conservative members of the Louisi.
ana Legislature, have signifed their willing
ness to accept wha. is known as the Wheel
er compromise ofthc troubles in Louisiana
This arrangement provides for the seating OF
the members Illegally oustcd by General
Sheridan, the recognition of the existing
Kellogg government and Il pledge not 10
impcach Kellogg or disturb the present
State government. The Conservatives arc
not to be bound by the compromise unless
the Republicans also accedc TO it. The
Conservative committee announce that the
compromise is made under protest, and from
the conclusion 10 which they have been re.
luctantly forced that no other terms could
be obtained. The proposed compromise does
not meet with the unanimous approval of
the Conservatives Of Louisiana, large mum.
Der of whom, led by Speaker Wilt, dcclar.
ing that it involves a sacrifice of principle
and that, however well meant, is likely to
cause new and bitter discussions rather than
restore peace TO the misgoyerned State.

Representatives speer, of Pennsylvania,
and O'Brien, of Maryland, of the Mississippi
special committee, have united in a report on
the Mississippi troubles, in which they give
what appears to bo fair and just account
of affairs in that STATE, concluding as fol.
lows
That the condition Of Mississippi is indeed
dcplorable. With Il Governor WHO has de,
clared that if not in Office he would not reside
in the State if given the whole of it; with
corruption prevailing to an alarming extent
in counties where negroes and carpet.bag.
gers have the control; with property de.
preciating and taxes increasing, utter ruin
can be arrested only y restoring'to the peo
pie honest government and the control of
their own affairs without interference from
the Federal army.
The majority Of the committee, composed
Of Republicans, also submitted u report ius-
tifying the application OF Governor Ames for
troops and the action of the President in
ordering them to be sent to Vicksburg. The
committee also recommend the passage ofthe
Force Bill. Their report is just what might
have been expected from men who will not
see the truth when ii is plain before them.

SMALL FRUITS FOR THE NORTH
wEsT.-Thc idea is coming to be
more and more f;lvorably received
that for much of the Northwest in
creased attention must be given to
culture OF grapes, strawberries, rasp-
berries, etc, to secure supply Of
fruits with certainty, and without
long waiting. This does not imply
encouragement as to ultimate gener-
al success in growing the apple, and
perhaps some varities of the pear,
plum and cherry. But the fact that
with proper protection III winter a
supply of grapes and berries can al
most certainly be secured each year,
places the culture of these on basis
far more satisfactory than can be
claimed for the extra COS: and labor,
and for the latter season in the far
North, that injury from late spring
frosts scarcely ever occurs, and that
fruit Of most excellent quality is Sc
cured with certainty.

A Fine Horse Barn.

The following description of u sta
BILE on the grounds of Dewey Il
Stewart, well known horse breeders
ut Owosso, Michigan, is by CORES
pondent of Wilkes SPIRIT:
The barn is 36x6O, with boxes for
eight horses, all ground floor, seven
Of which have yards attached, four
or five rods in extent, with lane
leading thereto six feet wide. Each
box is separately enclosed, and is
nine feet high, fourteen long, and
twelve wide. The ventilation is most
excellent, and is arranged by leaving
Il space of lattice work a. the top of
each box, with wire-screened win
dows, thereby securing good circu-
lation of air. In each box is a man
ger, an arrangement of Stewards,
that consists of rack set in a corner
ut IN altitude of abou four feet, with
trough for oats, etc, with a still
deeper trough that serves for re-
ceptacle for the dropped hay and
feed, preventing all wastage, and also
keeping the food clean; novelty Ill
it's way. There is an alley extending
through the centre of the building
six feet wide. On the lower floor ar.
the feed bins, boys sleeping rooms
office, stove, hot water, etc. The up
per part of the barn is filled with hay
and grain, and is furnished with Il
patent railroad hay-fork. For easy
feeding, the floor has eight traps lead
ing to each manager in each box, tina,
allow hay, ETC., to be passed through
without much loss of labor. It is
impossible to enumcrate all the SUI
perior advantages that this stable
possesses; it requires to be seen, and
| heartily recommend visit.

Prevention Of Cruelty to Animals.

The Illinois Humane Society has
issued the following appeal, addressed
''to the humane men and women of
the Northwest"
Should pestilence seize our domes-
tic animals, no pains or means would
be spared to find a remedy. Proven
tive measures should be enforced with
the severest penalties.
Should band of marauders, mer-
CHESS and powerful, sweep over the
land, taking the life of every dumb
animal as they passed, vigilance COM
mittees would be speedily organized
and vengeance would be taken with
out stint and without mercy.
Improper feeding and neglect are
not SO speedy, but they are as sure as
pestilence in wasting the lives of our
dumb friends.
Overlooking beasts of burden;
overdriving willing ANIMALS; tortur-
ing those unwilling to be overloaded
or overdriven; beating those whose
physical condition Is unequal to the
task imposed upon them-these are
as fatal as the knife or bullet of the
marauder, and far more cruel, since
they permit prolonged and oft-repeat-
ed suffering.
If humanity does not suggest pre-
ventative measures and demand pun
ishment for violation of law, mercen-
airy motives may be adduccd. 1t is
believed that the increased value of
animals, protected from wanton in
jury, will far more than repay the
cost of their protection.
The measures thus far adopted have
met the most hearty approval Of all
right thinking men and women.
The mere fact of an organization
for the enforcement of the law
against cruelty to animals will pre-
vent in large measure the thought
less cruelty now practiced, and an
occasional fine for fragrant violation
of law will secure kind treatment of
dumb friends. Their mute appeals
ought not to need the endorsements
Of law, but that such need exists ev-
erywhere cannot be denied.
One of the Directors of the Hi
nois Humane Society-not an Of
ficer-has within the past few
months, while in pursuit of his regu-
lar business. attended to more than
100 cases requiring only reproof for
correction. His connection with
the society has given weight to the
reproof.
Etfectual work demands organiza-
ton. Concert of action alone will
secure the correction of willful Of
tenders and diminish the vast
amount Of thoughtlessness Oh the
part of those not willfully cruel.
The Illinois Humane Society will
be glad to forward such publications
as may aid you in the formation of
State or local societies, and invites
correspondence upon this most i'm
portant subject.
Without waiting for organization
or official action, each man or woman
may find occasion to speak to heart
less men or to needless boys, and
thus save the faithful horse and
feathered songster from cruel treat
ment.
Let the friends of kind treatment
of animals take the matter in hand
at once, and the blessings promised
the mcrciful will be their reward.

10 PURIFY A SINK.-It hot wealth
er it is almost impossible to prevent
the sink becoming foul, unless some
chemical preparation is used. One
pound Of copperas dissolved in four
gallons of water, poured over II sink
three or four times, will completely
destroy the offensive odor. AS Il dis
injecting agent, to scatter around
premises affected with any unplcas-
ant olor, nothing is better than Il
mixture Of four parts dry ground
plaster of Paris to one part of fine
charcoal, by weight. All sorts of
glass vessels and other utensils may
be cfiectually purified from offensive
smells by rinslng them with charcoal
powder, after the grosscr impurities
have been secured off with sand and
soap.

OF this fair scene,
Those fields Of green
And gold between,
These cattle grazing upon the HILL
Taking their fill,
And sheep so still,
Like many held by single will.
These barnyard fowls are our subjects all;
They heed the call,
And like squat
On fast wings fall.
Whenever We scatter for them the grain.
Ills not in vain
We live and reign
In this our happy and calm domain.
''And whether the days be dim or fine.
In rain and shine,
These lands of mine
These fields of thine,
In cloudy shade and in sunny glow,
viii overflow
With crops that grow.
When gold is high and when it is low.
.Unvexed with shifting of stocks and shares,
And bulls and bears,
And strifes and cares,
And the affairs
OF speculation in mart and street,
In this retreat
Sweet peace can meet
With plenty on her rural beat"

AMERICAN EARrHoUAKEs.-The Boston.
transcript says - highly respected resi-
dent OF BrOokline, Mass. affirms that ne and
members of his family felt the Cucuta earth
quake In May last. In view of the repeated
experiences of simultaneous earthauake
phenomena at widely distant points on the
earth,s surface, II IS not at all impossible
lhaL tne REBOUND OF the internal wave strik-
ing The under surface of the earth in South
America should be felt in the northern hem
lsphere. The globe is continually shaken
with slight earthquakes, not day passing
sclentlhc men assert, when there Is not a
sensible disturbance of this kind somewhere
upon the whole surface. II is well known
that from the beginning of 1888 to the end of
l'S6, period OF nearly four years, this coun-
try was almost continually disturbed, nearly
thousand shocks being experienced in ina
I1rst OF these years. The great earthquake OF
Lisbon, in 17JJ, in which 90, OG0 persons were
Killed, either by falling walls or by the
waves of the sea, burying the marble duay
TO which they lied In a chasm opened under
Inc harbor GOO feet deep, was distinctly felt
along the coast of Massachusetts and Lake
Ontario was strangely agitated."
