enters into bis diseourses with great force and
eloquenee; being practical farmer, Of many
years experience, he is enabled to tell farm.
ers in plain common sense Just what they want,
and so explain the objects of the Grange as
to make il easily understood. We sincerely
hope that the several meetings will be largely
attended. This eoun,y, Nth population OF
$4,000, has only three Oranges, while others
with not half the population have more than
double that number. Agricnltarists STAND in
their own light by not connecting themselves
with the Grange. They are beneficial not
only in business way, but socially, and bring
the farmers together more frequently.

turing Company, Of this city, have received
orders for two forty horse power engines. two
twenty horse power engines, one fifteen horse
power engine, one e;ght-horse power engine,
and three saw mills, from Nova Scotia. From
the 22d Of February up to the 9th Of March

over $4,000, The engines aud saw mills
manufactured BY this company have given
universal satisfaction, and they fad great diff.
fienlty in filling their orders. At meeting
of the Directors on Monday evening il was
decided TO expend s.. 900 in the purchase OF
additional machinery. This, with other i'm
provements recently made, will enable them
70 I'll orders promptly. Considering the state
Of trade when the company was first organ
lied, together with the great loss they sua,
tanned shortly after they began-the entire
destruction Of the foundry and many valuable
pattens-their success has been unpreceden-
ted the officers and attaches have worked
industriously, and they are nov beginning to
reap their reward. We learn that they ex.
peet to double their number of hands soon.
II should be source of great qualification TO
our citizens to known that this enterprise is

CONGRESSIONAL.

The civil rights bill has passed the
house, and goes to the Senate as q
new measure. The preamble contains
a clause of the democratic national
platform of 1872 AS it now stands
it gives to all, regardless Of color,
equal enjoyment of the accom:noda-
tions, advantages, facilities and privi-
leges Of inns, public conveyances on
land or water, theatres and other
places of amusement; and provides
that no citizen possessing all other
qualifications, which are, or may be,
prescribed by law, shall be disquali-
fed for service as asgrapd or5pctit juror
in any court of the United States, or
Of any State, on account of race, color,
or previous condition of servitude.
Nothing is said about mixed schools
or cemeteries.

GOOD ADVICEE FROM GOVERNOR
.g-. CHAMBERLAIN.

Governor Chamberlain has written
a letter to w. B. Nash, chairman of
the finance committee, i'll which he
strongly urges the necessity Of bring
ing the appropriation down to level
with the revenue.
He even specifies where the various
reduction of, expenses can be made,
such as the governors and attorney
generals contingent funds, the uni
versity expenses, the printing bill &c.
Governor Chamberlain seems to be
in earnest about reform, in which he
is warmly supported by the conserva-
tives. regardless Of party. If the re-
publican members OF the Legislature
will only bnck him in the recommcn-
dations in this letter, some good will
be accomplished for the people.

MATCHED At LAST.

B. F. Butler, of Massachusetts, who
has been amusing himself in Congress
on every occasion that he could in
abusing the Southern people, and
boasting of his excessive bravery, but
who was unnoticed, probably because
no one wished to be bemired with
him, was thus met by Brown, of Ken
lucky, in his speech OH the civil rights
bill:
"What should be said if the accusation of
the Southern people should come from one
who is outlawed in his own home from re-
spectacle society; whose name is synony-
nous with falschood; who is the champion,
and has been OF all occasions, of fraud; who
is the apolesist Of thieves; who is such n
prodigy of vice and meanness, that to de-.
scribe him the Imagination would sicken
and inyective would exhaust itself"
The speaker. Docs the chair understand
the gentleman to be referring in this Ian"
guage to member of the House?
Mr.. Brown. No, sir. I am describing
an individual who is in my minds eye.
The Speaker. The chair understood the
gentleman to refer to member Of the
House.
: Mr.. Brown. No. sir. call no names;
this mans name is linked TO his crime, and
to-day throughout the world it is known as
"Burking" If I were to desire to express
all that was pusillanimo,ls in war, inhuman
in peace, forbidden in morals, and infamous
in politics, should call it Butleri=iny.
