pc PIE revealed by the investigation Of
the affairs Of the defunct Fresdman's
Bank, at Washington. has alicnated
the affections Of many Of that class
from the Republican party, and the
managers Of that lettering concern are
becoming extremely solicitous to re
gain the ground they nave lost. To do
this the administration has, according
to a Washington special to the Chicago
Times, hit upon an ezpedient rather
more ingenious than honest. 1t is pro-
posed to buy the bank building, OF the
pretense that 1t Is needed for depart
ment purposes, for an amount sufficient
to cover the accounts of the defrauded
dep0sitors. 1t is believed that this
would restore the confidence Of the
Congo voters IN the Republican party
as their s~aviors and natural and only
protectors.

A WASHINGTON special to the Ne10
York World intimates that the Presi-
dent has fully determined on appoint
ing Pierrepont to succeed Williams,
and that if Fish r~etires, E. Redwood
Hoar VIII become Secretary Of State.
The difficulty about believing all this
is that Pierrepont, has, ike Carpenter,
condemned the Louisiana business, and
is also credited with opposition to the
third term scheme. Most Of these ru-
m9rs, as we intimated yesterday, have
their origin in efforts Of the anti Grant
faction to force a change Of policy by
bringing the power Of the press and
public opinion to bear On the Presi-
dent.

1t is now pretty generally admit
ted by most Western farmers that
the improved poultry pays as well
in proportion as the improved
breeds Of hogs or sheep; that is,
on general principles. OF course
the great mass Of poultry is raised
and sold by the farmers. The car
loads of poultry and eggs shipped
from all over the west comes from
the farmers, and since the introduce
ton OF the Improved breeds the
supply is rapidly increasing. No
farmer can longer Afford to raise
the common chicken. If you can't
have all full bloods, get y thorough
bred rooster, either Cochin or q
Drama, and you will be so pleased
with the cross that you will soon
work into full bloods. They ma

Agriculturist.
What has been found true at the
west will hold good all over the
country. The improved breed of
fowls are attracting a great deal Of
attention every where, and large
prices are paid for good birds Of
different breeds. The markets
are well supplied not only with
eggs, but with poultry, all of which
commands such prices as prove
profitable. Ii the farmers and 9TH
ers who keep fowls would keep a
strict account with their invest
ment in this direction they would
find that it was as profitable as
any they make. Keep only the
best, take the best care Of those
kept, and thus secure the best re-
suits in all respects.-BoSton Post,
