restraint now laid upon them will not be
voluntarily removed, the resolution above
nosed conclusively shows. Can, therefore.
. "fair, free and full" or Q legal election be
held in East Baton Rouge next Tuesdayf
Large Republican gains are shown by the
registration in Iberville parish, in Rapides,
in Natchitoches, Carroll, Concordia, Tensas
and in fact all the parishes where "niggers"
have not been killed and sweet peace holds
sway. The bulldozed parishes

indications are that Louisiana will give the
biggest Republican majority she has yet
scored.
The Shreveport Ieiegram's account of the
Nichols meeting At .Coushatts contains
this ON the "pride and joy" of the New Or
leans Democracy:
Next came the Rev. S. J. N. Smith, wto
has descended from his high and holy call
ing to dabble in the slimy pool of Bourbon
Democracy. He gave us alternately prayer
and sermon and sermon and prayer; and
finally closed with 3 very warm exhortar
ton to the oolored people. mingled with the
briny tear; he told the colored people that
their former owners had not treated them
right. Hitherto they had not given sutfi
cient evidence that they were their true
friends. But now exhort you, yea pray
that you may this one time in our great ex-
tremity try Us, prove us, and see if We will
not be good and true to you; We want you,
colored people to be reconciled to US. Oh,
do come this one time!

MINDEN, La, October 81, 1876.
Hon. George L. Smith and party left
Shreveport in carriages before daylight this
morning, and we're met at Bayou Dorchete,
three miles from this point, by q cavalcade
OF 600 mounted Republicans, and escorted
into Minden.
The grand rally at Shreveport last Satur
day was almost rivaled by the immense
gathering here. Three Thousand people
were waiting eagerly for the expected
speakers.
Senator West was in one of his happiest
moods, and spoke with great effect.
He was followed by James D. Kennedy,
who, with his usual felicity and good sense,
held the vast crowd in rapt attention.
A grand barbecue will conclude most
successful demonstration. and Tuesday next
will confirm Webster as q Republican par.

FARM AND GARDEN.
Surface Manurine.

At one Of the evening mcetingsot The Ne"
York State Fair James Miller read paper
on"HOw To Make the Farm Pay from
which we reproduce his vieXs on surface
manuring: If this kind of manuring IS uone
intelhgently, he says, II is highly oesehcla''
But the soil must be III n condition 10 oc oe,i,
fitted Manure should not be applied on olu
meadows and pastures when nave oeeh
trampled until they are nearly as compact as
the beaten track, and which have lille grass
TO be benefited If applied upon grass lands
they should be newly seeded. During last
fall and winter | drew manure from COW.
stables and top.dressed about half clover
field which had been II own once and pastur-
ed the latter part Of the season. Upon the
norton top-dressed the roots Of the clover
were preserved, and On the other portion they
were nearly all killed by The severe winter.
| pastured it tho present season, and think
the half p-drcssed afforded four times as
much as the other half. 1t not only protects
the roots of clover and other grasses, but the
soil also. 1t prevents rapid evaporation
and gives it darker color, 50 that it absorbs
more solar heat. have observed the differ
ence where it had been applied 20 a portion
of the soil httcd for winter wheat, and crop
raised. Upon blowing for another crop after
harvest, as deep a. | plOwed, from six to
eight inches, it was thoroughly pnlverIzed.
SOIL is IN the best condition to be benefited by
it when puverlzed. | have top-dressed por'
tions of fields for wheat more or less for the
past fifteen years. In every instance 1t has
more than doubled my crops of wheat and
the grass following. The most cheering
feature to me Is that since | commenced to
topdress my.soil has constantly increased IN
pIOduc,iveness, until the yield of corn has
doubled without any other fertilizer whatever,
simply by turning over u sodwhich had been
top.dresscd one or more years previous, and
this upon fields where | formerly spread a
heavy coat of manure and plowed under as
soou as possible, TO prevent evaporation. The
yield was $50 bushels OF ears to the acre last
season, and bids fair to be more this; and |
expect it will increase until can report 100
bushels of shelled corn to the acre, and how
much more dare not dream. Some farmers
top.dress one season aud condemn it. That
is not fair test. 1t may require years 10

1t is as unnecessary for Il child to die OF scar
let fever as it is that 1t should be blind with
cataract. Let US see: AT any time before
the body has finished its Intellectual struggle
we are able to help it, not by wonderful med
icines but by the knowledge of anatomy and
the application of common sense We con
suit the sympathetic nerve and do what ii
commands US to do. We must give this child
salt when it wants it; we must give 1t acid
when 1t has fever-not vinegar but lemon
Juice because the first coagulates albumen
and the latter does not, on account of the
surplus of oxygen which it contains. To i'm
itate the soothing mucous in the ntestlnes,
which is now wanting, and 10 give some re-
spiratory food at the same time, we add some
gum arabic. To restore and relieve the in.
jured nerve we must apply warmth. In prac-
lice we can fulfill all this with the following
simple manipulations: Undress the child
and bring it to bed at the very first sign of
sickness Gave It, If 1t has already fever,
nothing but warm, sourish lemonade with
some gum arabic in it. Then cover It's abdo-
men with some dry flannel. Take "A we'll
folded bedShect and put it in boiling hot
water; wiring il out dry by means OF dry
towels and put this over the flannel on the
Chid's abdon en-. Then cover the whole and
wait. The hot cloths Will perhaps require
the case and its stage OF progress perspira.
ton will commence in the child in from ten
minutes to two hours The child then is
saved; il soon falls to sleep. Soon after the
child awakes it shows slight symptoms of
returning inclination tor food help its bow
els if necessary with injections OF oil, soap
and water, and its recovery will be as steady
as the growth of the greenhouse plant If
well treated. OF course if the child was al
ready dying nothing could save it, or if it has
illusions In the lining OF the heart or brain
it is much better that it should die. But if
the above is applied in due time, under the
eyes and direction OF. Il competent physician,
| will guarantee that not one in hundred
children will ever die Of scarlet fever.

especially those who have lost children al

tain that a child will never get scarlet fever
if properly treated. If child has correctly

We have recently published reports of :

DaYING OFF Cows.-This is the time of
the year when many farmers dry off part of
their COWS for the season This drying Oft is
matter of some importance, and needs care
full management. After the regular milking
of the COW has ceased, the udder should be
frequently examined at intervals OF few
days, and any mill which has collected
should be removed 1t left unattended to,
serious injury may be inflicted upon the COW $
udder, such rs the loss of one or more teats,

lmpairing the future usefulness of the cow.

New York Times thus alludes to the proper
time TO sell farm produce: "Ifyou have any.

lower prices. This is especially true OF per-
ishable articles An enterprising but eau
tious farmer was offered, during the late war,
ninety cents per pound for wool, but he held
it for dollar He held 1t three or four years

Care is required in grooming and cleaning
horses. No gathering of scurf, or waste OF
the skin, or dried perspiration, should be per
mltted to collect beneath the coat. But this
should not in every case be torn away with
sharp curry-combs. A tender skin is injured
by rough currying. A moderately stiff brush,
made with an uneven surface, is sufficient in
nearly every case. But labor must not be
stintcd in keeping horses clean.
