THE WEEKLY SUN.
: NEW YORK.
I76.
1876.

Eighteen hundred and seventy-six is the
Centennial year. 1t is also the year in which
an Opposition House of Representatives, the
first since the war, will be in power at Wash.
ington; and the year OF the twenty-third cleo
tion of President of the United States. All
of these events are sure to be OF great interest
and importance, especially the two latter; and
all of them and everything connected with
them will be fully and freshly reported and
expounded in THE SUN.
The Opposition House of Representatives,
taking up the line of inquiry opened years ago
by The SUN, will sternly and diligently in
vestigate the corruptions and misdeeds of
Grants administration; and will, it is to be
hoped, lay the foundation for n new and bet
ter period in our national history. OF all this
The Sun will obtain complete and accurate
accounts, furnishing its readers with early
and trustworthy information upon these abb
sorbing topics.
The tweaty-third Presidential election, with
the preparations for it, will be memorable as
deciding upon Grants aspirations for third
term of power and plunder, and still more as
deciding who shall be the candidate OF the
party Of Reform, and as electing that candi-
date Concerning all these subjects, those
who read The SUN will have the constant
means of being thoroughly N'ell-informed.
Tho Weekly Sun, which has attained cir
culation of over eighty thousand copies, Al
ready has its readers in every State and Ter
ritory, and we trust that the year 1876 will sec
their numbers doubled. II will continue to
be "a thorough newspaper. All the general
news of the day will be found in it, condensed
| when unimportant, at full length when OF
moment; and always we trust, treated in 9
clear, interesting and instructive manner
| 1t is our aim to make the Weekly Sun the bes,
family newspaper in the world, and we shall
continue to give in its columns large amoun,
efmiscellaneous reading, such as stories, tales
poems, scientific intelligence aad agricultura
| information, for which we are not able t.
make room in our daily edition. The agri
cultural department especially is one Of it
prominent features. The fashions are ais,
regularly reported in its columns; and 30 ar
the markets of every kind.
The Weekly Sun, eight pages with fifty-si,
broad columns is only 81 20 a year, postag

of the paper, no DISCOUNT can be made from

Spring Loss of Stock.

Farmers should not compel their
stock to run out to pasture as long as
they can get mOuthful to eat, and
make them selves believe that they
are doing justice to their stock, and
saving an honest penny. They are
saving their hay stacks, cribs of corn
and bines of oats, but March winds and
storms will convince them of their
mistake, in not beginning to feed In the
fall and early winter, and feeding up
their stock instead of letting it run
down and getting almost too weak to
get up alone before they try to feed the
stock Sc it will thrive. Two bushels of
corn fed before the holidays to keep the
stock thriving is better than five BUSH
els fed when it is already reduced to
skin and bones. Over feeding poor
stock will generally weaken it. Stock,
when it is found to be very weak, is
generally crowded and overfed. An
ounce of prevention Is worth a pound
of cure. Thousands of heads of cattle
are annually lost in the Uuited States
for the want of proper feed and shelter
from our severe storms in the fall and
eariv winter

A young man in Olathe, Kansas,
who is particular about his washing.
the other day wrote note to his wash
erwoman and one to his girl, and, by a
strange fatality, put the wrong address
on each envelope and sent them of.
The washerwoman was we'll pleased at
an invitation to take ride the next
day, but when the young lady read "If
you muss up my shirt bosoms, and rub
the buttons of my cullar any more, as
you did the last time, will go some
where else," she cried all the evening,
and declares that she will never speak
to him again.

ST. GAINESVILLE. OHIO.
THURSDAY. JAN. Is, 1876.

THE New York Tribune is altogether
out Of its reckoning in claiming New
York for the Democrats in the ensuing
Presidential contest. Here are few
figures which rIay possibly dispel its
fond Illusion. Last fall the total Pro-
hibition vote in that State was Sc, $50 ;
in the previous election, 6S,022. The
Republican net gain was 233. .953 DEM
ocratic gain l39, ,376; net Republican
gain 81, ,54z. Fully $1,000 of the votes
classed as Independent are really Re-
publican, and may confidently be ex-
I,tcted to be cast for Republican Presi.
Dental electors next November.

Hints In CARVING.

To carve fowls, which should always
be laid with the breast uppefmost,
place the fork in the breast, and take
off the wings and legs, without turning
the fowl; then cut out the merry
thought; cut slices from the breast, cut
out the collar-bone, cut of the side
pieces, and then cut the carcass in two.
Divide the joints in the leg of turkey.
In carving a sirlOin, cut thin slices from
the side next to you Git must be put on
the dish, the tenderlOin underneath
then turn it. Help the guests to both
kinds. In carving leg of mutton or
ham, begin by cutting across the mid
die Of the bone. Cut tongue across,
and not lengthwise, and help from the
middle. Carve q fore-quarter of lamb
by separating the shoulder from the
ribs and then divide the ribs. To carve
a loin of veal, begin at the smaller end
and separate the ribs. Help each one
to a piece of kidney and its fat. Carve
pork and mutton in the same way. To
carve fillet of veal, begin at the top
and help to the stufiing with each
slice. In breast of veal, separate the
breast and brisket, and then cut up,
asking which part is preferred. In
carving pig, it is customary to divide
it and take off the head before it comes
to the table, as to many persons the
head is revolving. Cut off the limbs
and divide the ribs.

reduce Indebtedness, but nevertheless
the farmers who produced it have been

Evidently the panic has not hurt the
farmer. Evidently, too, we have not
enough farmers, especially in the East.
Why, then, should not unemployed or
