BAD AIR In COAL MINES.
4 Paper read By AmdreaO Roy be ore
the Washimgtonvalle, Ohio, Aaner's S
Institute, Aug. 18th. 1875.

During the past ten years the num-
erous protracted and bitter strikes
which have occurred among coal
miners, growing out Of wages disputes
with their employers have attracted a
great deal of public attention. Not
a few of these strikes have been at
tended with Intimidation and lawless-
ness, especially when the mine owners
have attempted to introduce new
laborers to supplant those on strike.
Several bills have been introduced in
various State Legislatures bearing
more or less upon the subject of strikss,
the more direct purport of which have
been to provide pains and penalties
for interference by threats, intimida-
tions, or inundus of violence on the
part OF strikers with laborers who are
willing to work during the preva.
lence of a strike. The opponents of
such Legislation have held that the
laws now upon the statute book are
amply sufficient to protect the rights
of all parties in interest, and that no
additional legislation would be of any
avail either in preventing strikes or
in preventing outbreaks against law
and order and so far no new lsgisla-
ton has been had upon the subject.
Miners strike oftener than other Ia
borers, and their strikes are also more
protracted and are accompanied with
more bitterness of feeling and lawless-
ness; and hence has arisen the de-
mand so frequently made Of late years
for conspiracy laws and legislation to
prevent intimidation, violence, and
other lawless acts during the prevail
ence Of strikes at the mines.
In refusing to pass any laws on the
subject, l think the legislature has
acted wisely because such laws, sought
only by mine owners, would only in
crease the discomfort of the miners
degraded at the behest of their en-
ployers. In this country where the

Washington's Farewell to His
Army. r~a

The chieftian gazed with meistened eyes
upon the vet'ran band
Who braved with him the battles storm for
God and for their land
The parting hour at last had come-o'er
prairie, mount, and sea
The glad shout burst from countless hearts
Our land, our land is free!
Then up from every altar rose hymn Of
praise to God, l..,-. .
Who nerved the patriot hearts and arms
to free their native sod; /
The stormy strife of grief and gloom, Of
blood and death was DER,
The heroes who survived its wrath might
seek their homes once more.
With swelling hearts and toreheads bowed
they gathered round their chief,
The parting day to them was one Of ming
led joy and grief;
They thought of all his love and care, his
patience sorely tried,
Ofhow he shared their wants and woes
ana WlUQ THEM QeaGl QeQeQ,
Back to that feaful night they looked when
mid the storm he stood
Beside the icy-Delaware to guide them o'er
its flood
To crimson fields where thick as leaves
upon an autumn day
The tawny savage warriors and British
foemen lay.
They thought of many cherries camps
where lay the sick and dead,
Where oft the stately form was bent beside
the suffers bed;
Well had he won the deathless love of all
that hero band
Their friend and guide, their nations hope,
the savior of their land.
And he, too, saw what they endured to
break their country's chains
Their naked footprints stamped in blood
on Jerseys frozen plains;
The gloomy huts at Valley Forge, where
Winters icy breath
L TOLC lldIly UIdNC ucdfL CTuubOu uOWs
chained many arms in DEATH
He looked upon their war -thinned ranks,
and sighed for those who fell .
1t stirred the depths OF his great heart to
say the word "farewellp
He saw strong men who, facing death, had
never thought of fear,
Dash from their Scared and sun-browed
cheeks the quickly gushing tear.
He stood at the receding boat, his noble
brow laid bare, n-
The tossing fingers of the breeze strayed
through his silv'ry hair;
While to his trusty followers, the sternly
tried and true,
Whose sad eyes watched him from the
shore, he waved last adieu.
Earth shows no laureled conqueror so truly
great as he,
Who laid the sword and power aside when
once his land was free;
Who calmly sought his quiet home when
Freedoms fight was won,
While with one voice the Nation cried,
"God bless our Washingtonp'

HORRORS OF TURKISH CRUELTY.


The devilish cruelty of the Turks
makes the Servians express themselves in
tones of deep horror and disgust. After
the defeat at Velixi-IsvOr, they COM
menced to mutilate the Servian
wounded, and to murder the prisoners
who fell into their hands, to the number
of nearly one thousand. Unfortunately
a great many officers were made prison
ers, and these were the special objects of
Mussulmen hatred and savagery. After
being tortured in a manner worthy of the
red Indians of the plains, their heads
were cut of, and reeking and dripping,
carried about on poles, in the Turkish
camps, to be hooted at and stoned.
These odious and revolving acts were re-
ported in due course to Leschanine, and
I received them from the lips of his
chier of staff. So great has the horror
become among the Servians at these
continued acts of barbarism, that officers
and men always endeavOr to reserve one
cartridge in their revolver so as to blow
their own brains out as soon as they fall
into the hands of the Turks. 1t is easy
to affirm the truth of all this. Your
partial correspondent and your diplomat
may stay at distance and pooh, pooh,
but the fact will remain. Civilized"
Europe is always considered the leader
of the world, but she allows Turkey to
butcher and destroy; she allows emPe-
rors to be made and unmade within the
holy precints of St. Sophia-rulers who
neither know nor condescend to under
stand the people they govern-and
although women and children are muir
dered by a regular soldiery like pigs and
sheep, and dead bodies mutilated beyond
recognition, the Porte is still considered
as being within the pale of civilization,
one Of the great powers of the nine
teenth century.

spice and cloves, a pinch of red pepper
if liked. Boil a half hour. Very nice to
eat with meat.
POTATO Soup. - Boil eight potatoes
and one good-sized onion until tender :;
strain through a seive; add one quart of
milk, salt and pepper to taste, and nearly
one teacup of butter put I'll in a sauce
pan and let it come to a boil. Serve hot.
\ MUsTY COFFEE AND TEA.PoTs. The
best way to clean the inside of tea-pots,
cofee-POts, or old iron pots and pans, is
to fill them with water in which a few
ounces of washing soda are dissolved,
and set them on the fire. Let the water
boil till the inside of the vessel looks
clean.
To HAVE a good light the wicks of
kerosene lamps should be changed fire.
quently. They may be washed, if not
too short, or replaced by new ones. The
unsatisfactory light sometimes afforded
by kerosene lamps is often caused by
the pores of the wick being filed with
refuse matter, which obstructs the free
passage of the oil.
CAULIFLOWER PICKLE. Select the
closest and whitest flowers put them in
punches, spread them on earthen dishes,
sprinkle salt On them; in three days put
them in earthen jars, pour scalding salt
water upon them; let them stand six or
eight hours, drain them carefully, then
put them in glass cans, cover with vine
gar, and seal up tightly. Elder flowers
and buds add very high favor to pick
les and hOrseradiah. Either the leaves
or the root will keep pickles from mold
ing.
PRESERVING TOMATOEs.-In order to
preserve tomatoes through the year, it is
not necessary to resort to the expense of
canning them. If stewed in the ordi-
nary manner, but without butter or
crackers, only a little salt and sugar,
they can be put into jugs-two-quart or
gallon, according to the size of the fam
ily-and if corked up tightly, will keep
for a year. To make assurance doubly
sure, some melted wax may be poured
around the corks. Tomatoes may also
be dried easily. Skinned and prepared
with a little sugar they make good
substitute for figs, and are sold under
the name Of tomato figs.

A CURIOUS WELL.-A correspondent
at Cherrytree, Pennsylvania, writes that
the village is small and is only noted for
an artesian mineral we'll. Strangers
think the we'll a curiosity. Some ten or
twelve years since a well was bored for
oil. and ever since water and gas, which
they struck at about two hundred and
sixty feet, have been boiling out in con-
siderable quantities, The water has
never been analysed, is a mild cathartic,
cleanses thoroughly and softens the skin,
is cold and very clear, but when stirred
up in the tub within which it bOils up it
becomes white as if mixed with milk
The gas can be burned by inverting keg
or box over the water as it comes up
and lighted at hole in the bottom, and
il burns two colors, a twiring blue blaze
shooting cut small tongues of yellow.
