MINERS AND MAFERIALIsAr.- = Miners |

LIBERIA A FA1nu1RE.-A letter from
Liberia states that the colony does not
realize the expectations Of its founders.
It does not hold It's .owC,. if it is not
actually declining. Tie chief ea4se
of its failure j. the. American emancipa- |
ton. Since oar, great war there have \
been but few .yemigLautss and the old
settlers, seem to have lost their earlier
ambition and dropped into unthrifty
habits. The line of difference between
the eolonists and the natives IS growing
less marked every year, and = by the
lapse OF the former to their native con-
iftion. This shows how difficult It Is
to eiqilize a people, Race is more than
culture or religion. i'.il' i.- '''.i ''' ~,

Guinea fowl Is the richest and most pal
atable of all our domestic popltry. n We
can remember of no game. bird among.
the Gallip@ that sqrpasses it and when,
our grouse snd- cartridges and prairie
chickens become extinct, as they WI by
and by, the Guinea fowl will proven
perfect substitute for them, spd as III
breeds -fnealY. and requires but little
care, twill be practicable to breed #
IN all sections. After the bird attains
an age of Wo wears it needs some other
process of cooking than by roasting,
| but with an age of less than two years,
a roasted Guinea fowl Will discount
