FOR THE PARTNERS.

There is AN article, on s"Burter and

sfIarper's Magazine, to which we beg
to call the attention of the, farmers OF
Jefferson county, especially that OF the

of the Northern States by associated eff
fort to diversity the products of Hus-
bandry and TO increase IFS profits

quen. failures, has become, comparative
ly precarioas dependence and the dis
ordinations in Railroad freights against
as, in favor of through traffic increases
the competition Of the West ia the
sale of our cereals, so that our farmers
cannot rely arou the old staple crops to
the same extent as formerly. ,-;.d
Under these circumstances it is GER
tain]y worth their while to ascertain
what MetSods have been adopted else
whcre TO obviate disadvantages similar
TO those referred to, and We think that
If some of them who have surplus capt.
tai on hand would unite in establishing
Cheese Factory, such as is described
in the Magazins article alluded to and
for which our county affords many
favorable locations, it would not only be
a profitable investment for them but
soon also be followed by others OF the
same sort which would make our far
mers much more independent of light
crops, heavy freights and Western COM
petition.
"" At all events the article will repay
perusal in the information it affords,
even if it shall not induce any OF its
readers to make a practical application
OF its teachings.

H1- HENRY SToNEBRAKER, ESQ
Sometime since we stated that Mr..
Henry Stonehraker, the great Patent
Medicine Man, and proprietor OF the
celebrated Stonebraker's Medicines, had
recovered from Clotworthy Is Co., OF
Baltimore, in a suit which had been
pending some ten years or more, tor
infringement upon Mr. SIS rights, nearly
ten thousand dollars, and that Mr. 5.
had brought suit against the same COM
pany for damages, in the sum of forty
thousand dollars. We are now glad to
learn that those suits have been settled
in favor Of Mr., Stonebraker. He has
vanquished his foe, and has the field en-
tirely to himself. Through his untiring
energy and perseverance, for which he
lis SO well noted, he has accomplished
wonders, and hereafter in pursuing his
business, he will have ono one to modest
or make him, afraid He is now
running his business to its fullest capac-
ity, having recently invested a oonsid-
cradle amount Of money in its prosecu-
ton, and yet, we are informed, he
! cannot meet the demands for his cele-
brated Medicines. He is shipping tons
Of his preparations to all parts of the
western country. His numerous friends
of this section will rejoice to learn OF
: his great triumph. ~ -.

OBITUARY.-In Alexandria, Va, on
the morning OF the 10Th ultimo, il the
| 18th year of her age, Mrs. s. II. Der
RY, widow of the late Henry Berry,
Esq, of Shepherdstown, Jefferson coun-
ty, West Virginia
To the numerous friends of this most
estimable lady nothing need be said TO
enhance their appreciation OF her worln'
and to the members of her afflicted fam
ily nothing can be said to lessen the
consciousuess of their loss. The an
| nouncement of her death has saddened
manv homes beside those OF her kindred,
for none who knew her failed TO feel
the cheerful influence of her happy dis
position, and to recognize the Christian
braces of her noble character.
Whilst we mourn her departure from
this life, it is a blessed consolation TO be
allowed to look beyond the limits OF
mortality, and to realize, through faith,
the beatitudes of that better world
above-the blissful abode Of those who,
like our lamented friend, followed their
Saviour, with an unfalteiing trust, were
faithful unto death, and now wear the
crown Of everlasting life.-Snufhern

Matters Political.

The Yolo Mail, once Republican
paper, does not believe that YolO coun-
ty will be represented in the Republi-
can State Convention.
The Yolo Mail says: "We know of
no man in the State who would make
more honest, upright and conscien-
tious Executive officer than Mr.. Free
man, The same paper also strongly
objects to the name of James Anthony
being used i'm connection with the
Governorship.
A call for convention of the people
of Stanislaus county has been circu-
lated and numerously signed by citi-
zens of all shades of political faith, to
be held in Modesto on Saturday, May
Odd The purpose of the call, as set
forth, is 'for the ratification of such
candidates now before the people as,
in our judgment, are worthy of our
support, and for the nomination of
suitable candidates to fill such offices
as we deem the present aspirants un-
suited and unqualified for.
The vote cast at the Democratic pri-
mary in San Francisco was a very
large one, nearly 10000 ballots having
peen deposited. At the last general
election the total Democratic vote of
the city was in the neighborhood of
1900.

and eloquent editorials advising the
Republicans to support the candidates
named by the Independents, and
thousands of the faithful will vote the
entire Democratic ticket, rejoicing
that in so doing they are stabbing to
the heart the odious Independent
party. There can be no union be-
tween the Independents and Republi-
cans on principle, and all attempts to
effect combination in the hope of
party success, will be the signal for a
grand rush into the Democratic camp.
But suppose the Chronicles prayer is
answered and the absorbing process is
undertaken, which of the snakes shall
swallow the other? So long as each
shall insist on being the absorber, as
each certainly will, it will be case of
antagonism more determined than
that of to-day; and while SWIFT and
BoRUCK are tossing up to find out
which shall be the swallower and
which the swallowed, their supporters
will turn Democratic and the result
will be like that of the Kilkenny cats,
nothing left but the tails - JOHN and
MARCUS.
