II is known in government circles That
when Picrpont came into Office as Attorney
General, he found that within Awo years
$50, 900 had been paid Coz. Whitley by his
predecessors, Alderman and Williams.
Fifty thousand dollars of this amount, it is
said, was paid to D. export To-day search
was made for vouchcts but none could be
found. This statement creates much com
mcni in Official circles, and it is probable that

Political notes:

PHlfADELrHA, April, 22.-rhc N~M
-l"|rjc,,o says it requires no prophetic power
TO know that Conklin cannot have PcnnSyl
vania's vote in the convention and it is
doubtful if lie could get the States vote at
the election. Judge David Davis continues
to loom up as Democratic candidate His
friends here intend to with held his name at
s.. Louis until the twothirds votes shall
have excluded the present prominent candi-
dates and then present him as q compromise
Party leaders however, don't consider Davis
as strong in the party as Thurman or Bayard
Mcrton's friends stand by him pluckiIy but
his probable vote does not appear to grow.
Tildcn's pipe laying bids fair to give him
control of the Utica convention next We'd

4 USEFUL Book. Every farmer should
own a scrap-book in which to paste agii-
cultural items. Almost any man in
reading n paper will see things which
he will wish to remember. He will
perhaps see suggestions, the value Of
which he will desire to test, or hints
which he will want to be governed by
in. future operations. And yet after
reading the paper, he will throw it
down and will probably never sec it
again. In such case all the valuable
articles will be lost To prevent such
loss every reader should clip from the
papers such articles as he desires to pre-
serve and paste them in a book. Such
a book Mt the end of a year or two Will
be interesting and valuable.

NESTS. Read the following excellent
suggestions in regard to hens nests:
The nest boxes should be movable, so
that after Matching, and occasionally
when used only for laying they may be
conveniently cleaned. One way is to
whitewash them; but another, preferred
by some, is to kindle fire inside and
char them. This process will effectu-
ally distroy vermin and their larvm,
and will thoroughly purify the nests by
leaving a coating of charcoal inside.
This substance is one of the best anti
septics, and perfect deodorizcr.
Boxes made of sevcn-eights stuff-pinc,
hemlock or spruce-will outlast a num-
Der OF those publications by fire, as the
process tends to preserve the wood.

FARM AND HoUsEHoLD.

DISH WAsHISG-Mrs s T. SAWYER, in the
Country Gentleman, very pleasantly instructs
how to wash dishes so as to make II fun.
Let me describe, by way Of contrast, another
method, which IS anything but fun, to the in
tclligcnt looker>on least. Wash the dishes
indiscriminatcly, without regard to their diff
fercnt condition, and without scraping: put
them dripping from the greasy suds into am
Other pan bottom up. When the pan is full,
pour over them dpper of hot water, and
thus make clean the outside Of the cup and
the platter. but within, "-ctc. Then take
them directly from the water TO a towel which
is thus made soaking wet in "a few minutes.
Dishc, should always be drained few see
ond, after rinsing, as it saves half the labor
of wpin- and keeps The towel in better con
diti0n. lOur correspondent refers to a drain
ing rack, which is no doubt useful; nut the
plan praciccd and taught by an excellent
housckecpcr of my acquaintance, was 10
drain the dshc. on Il cloth laid on the bottom
of the sink. This keeps them from slipping
and thus getting cracked, and also absorbs
the water; and an extra dshcloth of goo
size, kept at hapf for the purpose, will BIT
found convenient. These homey tasks are
honorable because necessary, and it is beneath
the dignity Of n0lady to learn the best meth
DDS of performing them.

PAYNE CRors.-A large net profit
per acre is undoubtedly the basis of all
good farming. 1t is one of the condi-
tons of success, and the profit OF the
business materially depends upon it.
For every tiller of the soil, therefore, a
large yield per acre Of crops which pay
is the first thing to consider, because
without this no large results are posi-
bic. Small crops are always easy to
get, but they are seldom worth the
time and outlay they require, and fire.
quently entail great loss. OF course,
1t is also true that even prolific yield
may sometimes bring loss, but such
cases are always due to either negli-
gence, extravaganza OF needless folly.
They do not alter the general rule, but
are simply the exceptions. The great
fact still remains that the chances of
profit in every crop are clearly IN favor
of large products per acre.

was advertised with a great flourish of
trumpets. last week. The owner of
the stable of twenty stud,-bucepheli
that would have made young Alezan-
der go into ecstaeies, was true to MS
engagement. The concert was par &c
ceUence tie grandest thing of the kind
that ever came off in a-meat shop.
Prof's Kroner and Hart with their
full orchestra furnished the music,
Herr Mccormick sang with his feet,
go! had [ the pace of a Racker" to
Fishers Hornpipe, and then Mons.
Spaford blindfolded drew out OF a
beeve's skull double barrel shot gun
for a woman in Madison who will pro-
badly draw bead on the Legislature.
If she does, the concert will have been
a success. The second draft brought
up blackboard wagon for DR.. Garfield
of Necedah, and the third-well there
were no more drafts. Like mustard
plaster, two were sufficient. A Ger
man from the 'sCreek" we learn waited
all day to draw a horse. With a
piece of wrapping paper and a pencil
he could have drawn horse in two
minutes, but he waited all day and
drew nothing but some agonizing signs,
which for one of his size were ''per-
simmons" He drew them in concert
with his German friends who feel as
though they would like to draw Nc.
with a bed cord. Undoubtedly the
scheme was gotten up in good faith,
but the hard times prevented the sale
of tickets, and what was intended to
have been legitimate proved a complete
burlesque.
