The defenders of President Grants pa1tlzan

pspers as the New York Tribune. 10 its issue
Of the 7th instant that paper says:
I'm behalf of the United States Supreme
Court, We respectfully protest. Senator Sher-
man says, in speaking of the personal compo-
sition Of the Louisiana Returning Board, that
its decisions are worthy of as much respect as
those of our highest tribunal We venture to
suggest that, on the whole, the record Of the
Supreme Court is considerably better than that
of the Returning Board, and that whatever
view may be taken Of the latter now, the Su-
preme Court ought not 70 be banded about in
cheap comparisons with Returning Boards OF
other political bodies whose garments are not
free from the smell of FIRE. J"
The same paper also tells an Ger true tale
when it attributes the present weakness of the
radical party TO the constant, unwav.
erine, and sustaining support it has rendered

"A Hog Story.
WApRENTON VA. n


To the Editor of the Alexandria Gazette -
I send you the following to encourage farming.
Our granaries are all full-our people we'll
oIothed-Cbristmas is coming, and We will all
have real jolly time. Work and economy
doesi it.
Col. Jas. K. Skinker, of Fauquier county,
slaughtered TWO Chester hogs on the fifth, that.
on the se,ond of February last weighed respec-
lively 100 and liz pounds; weighing net 44O
and 382 pounds.
Allowing fifth (SS pounds) as loss. the
largest hog would have weighed 52S pounds
gross-being gain of4l9 pounds 10 307 days.
In February at cents per pound gross the
value of the largest one was 1894; now at
the same price net per pound $26.40
Estimated value of corn barrels Tor SO
the net increase in weight 33l pounds at 6
cents, is Sl9S6. Isn't that good interest?
better than Smelling and hauling corn over mud
dy roads, paying freghts,r commissions, &c.,
&c., besides the valuable manure, and then
the lard.
The lighter one 10 February outweighed the
other by SO pounds. Being the same litter of
pigs, there is no known reason for the differ.
ence. They were fed but little corn during
June, July and August, having been pastured
and allowed the slops from the Kitchen. Pigs
of the same litter, sold, were made to weigh
from IFS to 226 each.

The total number Of votes throwo out by the
returning board were 1882 democratic and
,9l5 republican. TWenty.iour out Of thirty
one democratic parishes are changed. In every
parish where there is one republican poll only
that poll is counted, and all the rest are thrown
out. Gov. Kellogg has commissioned all the
city officers who were recently elected. All Of
them are democrats. Ho says that he will
commission some Of the judges, hut not all Of
them. He asserts that as the Superior District
Court is political tribunal. armed with cxc!u.

FOREIGN News.

The Turks will propose at the conference
that the reforms be guaranteed by mixed
commission. 1t is thought in Constantinopa
that the conference will result in peace. a
dispatch from Pesth says that positive informa
ton has been received showing that the situa-
ton is more promising. Various Bulgarian
secret societies have met at Bucharest and drawn
I'D q list of demands to be addressed to the con-
ference. These demands are moderate, as the
extreme party among the Bulgarians dislike the
idea Of being obliged to resort to the patronage
of Russia. An ausion 10 recent speech OF
Prince Bismarck to 'those whose acts might
menace Austria" is regarded at Rome as ad-
dressed directly to Italy.
A conspiracy to depose the present Sultan
was discovered on Tuesday night. The con-
spirators, six Of whom were fouud 10 disguise
in the palace itself and arrested, had planned
to carry off the ex-Sultan Murad 10 steamer,
which they had already engaged, to Athens.
When there they intended to proclaim that
Murad had recovered his reason, and the Sui
tan Hamid was consequently an usurper. The
prisoners are of various nationa!ities.
The latest news from Mexico is TO the CT
feet that General Revueltas had issued circu.
lar letter to the merchants of Matamoras re-
auesing them to moet him to consult on i'm
port business, aud stating that they would be
subjected to loan, or 10 default OF be forced
to personal labor on the Notifications. The
merchants fear that the extraordinary invita-
ton involves some scheme of plumber prepare.
tory to the fight of Revueltas.
