MIXED SCHOOLS. 10 the House of Repre-
sentatives, on Thursday, while the Civil Rights
bl was being discussed,
Mr.. Cain, of S. c., said there was no part Of
the bill Of such vital Importance as the school
clause, because education was an absolute ne
cesSl'y. But rather than icopardise the whole
bill he would agree that that clause should be
stricken out. de was coptcnt with separate
schools, but he wanted the Democratic States
to build up school houses and not burn them
down.
MIR. Gunckcl, ofOhio, inquired whether the
colored people oi the South desired mixed
schools
Mr.. Cam sand they did not Iu South Caro-.
llua, where the whole school system was under
control OF colored people, they had separate
schools.
Mr. Cobb OF Kansas, inquired what the effect
upon the white people OF the South would be if
the Senate bill passed.
Mr.. Cain replied that the effect would not
be bad one it the law was obeyed. Laugh
Mr.. HyucS, of Ark, inquired whether the
Democratic States of the South would not sac
rhce the common school system rather than
permit mixed schools.
Nlr. Cain said he was not IN the secrets of
the Democratic party, and could not speak for
shtm. Laughter. He concluded by saying that
all he asked for his people was a fair and even
chance in the race of lite, and chance to de-
mCns;rate their capacities. Applause in the
galleries.

Interesting Town.

a correspondent of the Boston Journal
writes A few miles away from Shelter
Island, on the eastern end of Long
Island, lies the ancient town of East
Hampton. 1t consists of one long street,
on which were formerly the houses, the
old church and two burying grounds,
one at each end of the town, laid out in
the form of a coffin. The people were
buried in the middle of the street, with
their faces toward the west. But one
tombstone faces the east, and that is over
the grave of the old minister, Rev. Mr..
James. He ordered his friends to bury
him in that position that he might face
his congregation in the resurrection.
This fact is recorded on his tombstone.
The old Beecher mansion remains as it
did in the early years of Lyman Beech
er's ministry. 1t is large-sized two
story mansion, end to the street; the
sides covered with shingles and in the
old manner. But internally it is en-
tirely changed. The door is in the center
of the house. and the right-hand lower
room was DR.. Beecher's study. A huge
forest tree rises in stately proportions
above the dwelling, evidently older than
the ministry of DR.. Bcecher. Near this
house is the dwelling of j. Howard
Paine, who wrote Home, Sweet Home"
He was born in the town, educated in
the Academy, and wrote his celebrated
lines in the dwelling, which still remains
1t is an old-fashioned wooden building,
the walls of the parlor being ceiled, and
an ancient buffet, carved, occupies cor
ner of the room. Nobody seems to know
any thing about Mr.. Paine, what room
he wrote in, or any thing of the circum-
stances connected with his early or later
years. Had he been born, or had he
lived in Kamtchatka, he would not have
been any more a stranger to his native
place than he is now. Talmage has his
summer residence in this town. 1t is
plain cottage in sight of the ocean, with
out shade tree or shade anywhere
around it. The house was built by his
brother-in-law. The ocean view is fine
one from the house, but the Deserts of
Sahara are scarcely more desolate.

A Cat Assaulted by Robins.

The Troy Times mentions an interest
ing instance of Robins protecting their
young. 1t says: While short dis
lance from the city, yesterday, We heard
robins chirping in the leafy top of tall
elm. A large car from neighboring
house stood under the tree gazing aloft
and watching the feathered sOngsters as
they fitted hither and thither. Her eye
was eager and gamey, and she evidently
longed for some tender birds meat. The
robins, it appears, had nest of young
ones, and the mother bird, observing the
crouching attitude of the cat far below,
was filled with anxiety for the safety of
her little ones. She set up loud, chat
tering cry, and for moment both parent
birds flew about the nest wildly and nois-
lily. Finally they swept down straight
for the cat, their huttering wings and i'm
petuosity driving her away on run. As
she neared the gateway of a house, and
was about to enter, one of the robins
swOoped down and gave the cat a sharp
clip on the back with its beak The cat
rushed into the doorway, and up the
robins rose and sought the nest of the
brood.

SHEEP MANAGEMENT.-. DIR Kings
bury is reported in the Boston CNlt|rator
as saving at a recent meeting of the n.
H. Board of Agriculture: Get good
breeds only, and raise the most perfect
ones; a good sound sheep is as necessary
as goood sound horse. Get breed
that will stand cold weather, and not
stand even in this weather shivering with
cold-one that has thick, dry covering;
these are not only the most profitable
for their wool, but also for their lambs
that will be dropped in their season.
Give the sheep exercise; oblige them to
90 short distance for their food and
drink. A successful sheep raiser must
love his sheep, not only for the dollars
and cents, but must love to look at them,
to see them eat and drink, to really en-
Joy their capering; in fact he must
love their every movement-love them
in such away that they will meet him
with greeting, and not take TO their heels
and try to hide from his sight; success
in great measure lies here. Do not
wash the sheep. Be careful in shearing;
do not leave any wool on and say you
have made it up by taking of an equal
amount of hide, for this is not only an
injury to the sheep, but no wool will
ever grow from these SCARED places.
High pasturage is necessary; low meadow
land is not adapted to sheep pasturage.
Feed for sheep should be cut just before
or at the time of poisoning; should be
fed neat and clean, as sheep are
naturally clean, and will trample it
under foot unless they have clean food
in clean places. Do not oblige them to
wade through mud and water, for all
have noticed that in driving they will
90 around rather than through water or
mud.
