just above The teat the milk en-
tering the tunnel ped organ by
a single cha.fnel. Just as the np-
per end Of the teal the 4 al Of this
channel are contracted, and the
contraction is surrounded ~ 4
baud Of muscular fibers. The will
of the COW can operate on this
band, contracting or expanding II
lat pleasure, making it operate like
Ia valve. At the junction Of each
smaller tube with q large one, is
a similar contraction md hand,
also under the control of the will.
Ordinarily these bands are con-
tracted Gas IN the neck Of the blad-
|der 50 thatstLe milk has to crowd
its way through them to get from
the smaller into the larger tubes.
This is an admirable arrange
ment for sustaining the weight Of
the milk equally in all parts Of the
udder, and preventing it from
pressing heavily upon the teats.
When the udder is full, if the
milk is drawn out Of the teats, re-
lieving the pressure in them, it re-
quires a vigorous effort of tho will
Of the COW to prevent the pressure
above from crowliog the milk
down to I'll the vacancy. II the
udder is only partly filled, she can
hold the milk back more easily !;
and the less tliereis in it the more
easily can she maintain the tension
of the muscular bands necessary to
prevent entirely the milk from flow

mixer first takes hold Of the teats
and begins to milk, the EXCITEMENT
causes the COW to contract the bands
so firmly as to hold back the milk
perfectly for time. But presently
this vigorous contraction will begin
to slacken, and the milk will begin
to pour through, and if all is quiet,
she will relax the bands fully !,
winch the milk all settles down mp
on the teats, and is quickly drawn,
it can be all MIXED out to the very
last drop.
. But this perfect relaxation will
only lastfora short time. # the
milk is not soon extracted, she will
begin to tighten up the muscular

sary to restre their old relations to the
Union after the war was over; and
doubtless posterity will not harshly
Judge whatever was done to secure
that end.
But after an insnrgcnt State was
fully reclaimed and put in running
order, oeither the original constitution
nor the recent amendments conferred
upon Congress any more authority to
NEEDLE in its purely State elections
| than III those of Maine or Ohio. The
I. oft cited clause of the Constitution,
that United States shall guarantee to
every State in this Union republican
form of government does not apply
to a case like that existing in Loaisi-
ana. The form of the government of
tibet State is all right. The difficulty
arises out of carrying an election by
fraud on the spot, and the outside in
reference of the army by order of the
President. The conspirators who per-
petrated the fraud ouget to be sent to
the penitentirry like ordinary ballot
box suffers, while the high Federal
officials who sastainen them with
Ibayonets ought to be impeached as a
warning to such OF their successors as
may be tempted in like manner to Of
fend.
We can we'll understand the dilemma
lof the Administration and the Republic
can majority in Congress. The Presi-
dent has for unworthy purposes rushed
|headlnng into this Louisiana business,
aud has thereby disgraced the Repub
Iican party and imperilled the country.
and he onghtto be compelled to get all
concerned ont of the difficulty. But
the passage of an act Of Congress Or

Is correct. Neglect of colonial his

OF the Southern educational SYSTEM
In neary all the Southern States the

A circular of Caution was seen on
| the streets yesterday, which purported
tt emanate form the Carolina Central
hallway Company. 1t was directed
agd1u~t the negotiation or circulation
OF certain of their bonds, dated April
L, 1874, aud said to have been obtain
ed by Edward Matthews on terms
winch, the circular alleges, will not
permit their payment. The circular
was without signature or official at
test'it:on- Mr.. Matthews told a re-
porter of the Tribune last evening
that he knew who Was the author of
the circular, which had been ISSUE d
for the purpose of blackmail, by one
who had formerly held the office of
Director, aud who had sought to have
more controlling influence. Mr..
Matthews stated that the fellow
directors Of this man found that he
had been indicted for perjury, and
finally had him removed from the
directory. The Carolina Central
Hallway Company was formerly the
Wilmington, Charlotte & Rutherford
halfway, aud was reorganized with a
new Board of Directors, of which the
author OF the circular was one, while
MIR. Matthews was in Europe
In order to complete the road
certain number of first and
second mortgage bonds was ordered
to be issued with the unanimous cor-
sent of all the Directors and stock
holders. inclading the author Of the
circular. The bonds were issued to
the stockholders, pro rata, and at
ert ain fixed price, and MIR. Matthews
al I'll at he had taken his proportion
OF the bonds. Seme of the stockhold-
ers had IT fused to take their proper
tlon-among them the author of the
ciccular-and he, in order that the
road might be completed, took those
that were left, and gave the required
price for them. The Reorganization
of the Company had been completed
during Mr.. Matthews abse nee, and he
held then, and still holds, no Office in
the Company, although owning a large
proportion of both stock and bonds,
The same person, said MIR. Mat
thews, had issued previous blackmail-
ing circulars over his o~n name. and
a suit has been brought against him
by the Company for the perpose of re-
covering damages.
The above from the New York
Tribune of the 25th inst, has reference
to the longest and most important
railroad in this State. The first mort
gage bonds referred to are consider
ed among the first securities in the
South, although the opposition of the
disappointed ex-director is we'll un-
derstood. His numerous circulars
have no weight here where the ia It's
are well known.

furnished information by parties in
possession OF the secret history. TO
ascertain the names of the latter be-
came the task Of the Prussian police,
by order of the Emperor. Unable to
seize the books of the Gazette on any
direct charge, the police took advan-
tago Of the fact that the owner was
also partner in Il job printing estab-
lishment. From that establishment
had been issued a circular rejecting on
certain bankers. The latter sued the
job printing office, and the police. On
that ground, seized all the books of
the Gazette, including the subscription
list. Throughout Germany the dis
closures OF the Gazette and the op-
pressive measures of the exasperated
Emperor have created profound SEN
sation. The Emperor. vino ie stickler

Centennial exercises, as heappeared an
eloquent epitome in name and charac-
ter of the best phases of Carolina his
tory, and as he will long survive in
the historic portrait-gailery of North

Remote from the conspicuous seats
on the platform was Alfred NJ. Wad-
dell, who, next December will begin
his third term as member of Con-
gress from the Cape Fear District.
Handsome, genial, gifted, his attitude
on the platform was suggestive of the
modesty that ftly adorns knightly
and chivalrous character, and a per
son thai proctaims his high lineage.
Col. Waddeli is >honored and beloved
throughout North Carolina with the

Conference Meeting at Magnolia
Hospitality OF the PeOpIe-ilinis-
tcrs in Attendance.
.GNoLIA, n. c., May 2Sth, 1875.

MAGNOLIA, N. c., May 28th, 1875.
II' Editor BY resolution of the
District Conference, see you are fur
nished with the proceedings of that
body, so / will not trouble you with a
repetition.
We arrived here safe on Wednesday
morning and found quite nu-4ber OF
friends at the cars waiting to give US
d home. The different JOURNALS OF the
State praise the hospitality of our
City by the Sea-" but nowhere have
1 seen the account of having q picket
guard to see if all are furnished with
home do not say that these peo-
pie really have this guard, but it GER
tainly appears go, as not one of our
delegates can stop III the street to look
around d little, without some one COM
ing Immediately to furnish him with
home. Verify, these people are kind.
We have quite large delegation
here from the different parts of tie
District, and among them we see the
pleasant face OF that Sunday School
veteran, Capt. W. III. Parker, of Will
mlngton, who made a soul stirring
speech yesterday in behalf of Sunday
Schools.
We have preaching at IL O'Clock,
A. NJ, and at 8 o'clock, 2. M. On
Wednesday the Introductory sermon
was preached by Rev. j. Sandford, on
the subject of Stoning Jesus" and
we think ali III the house IN the habit
of critici,iDg, then resolved to cease,
and we wish that the same sermon
could be heard by some of the critics
n your city.
Now, Alr. Editor, [ will tell you
about the rich treat we had yesterday
at IL o'clock. The hour for service
having arrived, we were all pleased to
see our friend and brother, Rev. /.
W.Smith, enter the pulpit. Heis eyoung
man who is only about twenty-five or
six years of age This young divine
preach d to large congregation on
s. Christian Conservation, and 1t Ger
tainly would have done credit to a
much Older head. We hope ye VII
rlingtonians may hear him some time.
We notice Rev J. E. Mann in the
Conference room with a peaceful smile
resting upon his face. This deserved
ly popular preacher looks as if he loved
every body, and only endeavors to fol-
low the example OF the blessed Sa-
viour.
Rev. ]. T. Gibbs. of your city, is also
here with an eye ever watching the in
terests of his Masters work. Truly
he is a faithful worker.
Now we come To that prince of
preachers, Rev. ". S. Black, z. K Of
the Wilmington District, who preside8
over the deliberations Of the Confer
ence. He is as much at home as a
presid ding officer, as he is as q Minister
of the Gospel, aud IL either he is Sc
cond to none that your correspondent
has ever seen or heard. Uncle Black
shows in his face that the spirit of God
constrains him. May he long be
spared to the people.
Yours RECHAB.
