7Tse Republican Leaders Gire up
Defense.

When charged with the gross misman-
agement of the government and the
wasteful extravaganza of the Republi-
can party for the last ten or eleven years,
the Republican party Office holders and
speakers do not attempt defense. They
simply reply that some fifteen or six
teen years ago Mr., Tilden did not return
as much income tax as he should have
done or that fifteen ears ago the peo-
pie of the South rebelled against the
government and that the Democrats now
are rebels because they did not wish to
go to war against their own countrymen
or being at war, the Democrats all the
while wished the war discontinued by
some treaty whereby the further she'd
ding Of blood and increase of debt, and
waste and destruction could be stepped.
There is no argument in this-there is
no sense In it. The Democrats show the
people how the waste has continued
from year to year how that when Grant
was elected there was $4,000 Office holders
and that record of the civil list pu blished
pursuant to law, shows that the number
OF ofhceholders and employees have been
increased to over 100000 up to 1875, and,
tnat salaries have been raised and per.
quisites granted until the taxation con.
sequent upon the expenditures of the
government is gradually absorbing all
the landed estates that were not clear OF
debt, and subjecting the owners of that
which is not in debt to dreadful or
deal to keep it from passing away from
them also.
And yet the cry comes back to the
ears of those who assent to all this-the
Democrats are "rebels" still, Fifteen
years OF constant craving for peace and
harmony and concession for all parts of
our dear land, has had no effect upon
these oihce-holding, incorporating peo-
pie who are still living upon the public.
Before the war the people of Delaware
paid no internal revenue tax to the gov.
ernment-for number of years since
the war they paid about 500, 900 wear to
internal revenue officers, and for tbe 10 81
years Of Grants administration tbev
have been made to pay$417 ,592 and it is
taking all the people make-all thew
save, and they are astonished to find af.
ter years hard toll they are poore,
than when the year began. We tell
them of this and the editor of the Re.
publicdn urges them not to mind it; the
Democrats were rebels and he believes
they are rebels still. And so the people
have been cajoled, and frightened by
the raw-head and bloody-bones cry Of
rebel" until they have been robbed of
half OF what they are worth, and an.
other four years of such Repu blican
rule will about take the balance.
Will our people reflect for a moment
on these serious facts? Will it be believed
that the people of little Della ware has
paid this Radical government s15. 900 OOO
in the last fifteen years; and that last
year $4l7 ,592 was got from them througb

Caleb E. Marsh was examined be.

careworn and nervous. His memory
appeared very defective. He could
remember nothing of Importance, but
admitted the correctness of his former
testimony. He had carefully destroyed
all correspondence with Belknap. lie
paid money to Belknap personally in
New York.
The examination was continued on
Thursday.
George Ii. Pendleton was secretly
examined, His testimony is under
stood to be that the Kentucky Central
Railroad did not belong to the Boiler
heirs at all, although he received the
money for them and they held posses
sion of three fifths. He explicitly de-
MED paying anything directly er indi-

They Would Both be Caught.

Some years ago, bill was introduced
in the Indiana Legislature to tax all at
torneys and jackasses $500 each. Mr..
Norris, citizen of Somerset county, Md,
having gotten hold of it, and greatly elat-
ed at the joke upon lawyers, called on
Hon John W Crisfield, prominent law
yer of the town which bears his name.
Good morning, Mr. Crisfeld."
GOOD morning, Mr. Norris" rejoined
the former.
"Have you heard the news from Indi-
ana ?" pursued Mr. Norris.
"w hat is that? P" replied the other.
why, they are men of sense in Indi-
ana; they are getting up q law there to
tax all the lawyers and jackasses in that
State s40O apiece" replied the latter, rub
bing his hands with pleasure at the
thought.
The veteran lawyer reflected moment
on the information, and then gravely re-
joined
well, friend Norris, it is lucky for
you and me that we don't live in Indi-
ana they ,could catch both OF us.

GADE,

WHAT Is BEING DoNE-THE FIRE BRI-
GADE.
1t is rather a difficult matter to get
at anything in Machinery Hall, except
such as can be cleaned from casual
glimpses through the doors, which are
guarded by officers, to prevent the in.
cursion of visitors. 1t can however be
said that the greater portion of the
heavy shafting is IN place and a con-
siderable portion of the branch shat
ting, is in place. On the outside of the
building. and on the floor proper, can
be seen immense boilers, huge pieces
of machinery of queer construction, in
tended for all departments of manu-
featuring industries; labor-saving ma
chimes, and last, but not least, the
Great Corliss Engine of 1900 horse
power, which will drive all the ma
chinery in the building. There is con-
siderable difficulty caused to the com
mittee in charge of this position of the
Exhibition, owing to the dilatoriness
of exhibitors above alluded to. The
time for the closing of the gates as to
the reception of such exhibits has been
extended from the 10th to the 10Th of
April, when the building will be
closed. If those who desire to be we'll
represented do not make haste it will
be impossible to construct the founda-
tiors for their machinery and they will
be compelled to place them on the
floor. One of the features of the Ma
chinery Hall, is the Steam Fire .Engi.
nes, hose, and trucks which constitute
the Fire Brigade. There are three
steamers in this hall in perfect order,
fully equipped, and ready for service
at an instant's notice, and scattered
throughout the grounds are fire. plugs
insurIng an abundance of water. Being
close to the Belmont Reservoir there
is such water pressure, however, that
\ the hose in all the buildings will throw
the water to the roofs of all of them.

OiI-Cake for Mich Cows,

A correspondent of the Toledo Farm
journal gives the readers of that paper
the benefit Of his experience, as fol-
lows:
Dairymen in this vicinity, where
continued feeding Of milch cows is re+
quisite from five to seven months OF
the year, who have not tested the vir-
tue of oil cake as an economizer in
fodder, can scarce believe how prefit-
able its results are, especially during
long, cold severe winters. Owning
about forty cows several years since,
all of which were stabbed during the
winter season, the writer's attention
was called to the value of cotton seed
oil as an economizer of fodder and
trial was given it, ton or two being
pun chased at st Louis and shipped to
Toledo in January, Several bushels
were thrown into barrel, which was
filed with water; and when the oil
cake had become dissolved about a
quart of the Huid was poured over the
isauaniity "f middlings, cut hay, ,orwhat-
7 ever too, was given each animal at
one feed s great care being taken
not to gi too much, in order not to
clOy the Appetile- "A result which fol-
lows if caution is not observed in this
respect. The consequence was that
the COWS grew sleek, were perfectly
healthy gave more milk, and required
far less food than before; very desir-
able result at that time, as the winter
proved long one and feeding had to
be kept up until the middle of May.Sc
! long as | continued to remain engaged
in the dairy business never again
gave up the use of oil cake, although
it became difficult to obtain the cot
ton seed oil cake, and tried linseed
oil cake, using it in the same manner
with good results, although l prefer
the former, but would always use the
latter when that is not obtainable, =
When fodder is scarce and dear tho
value of this experiment is great, in
deed, especially in winter; and / woulc
advise all who are engaged in the pro
duction of milk for city markets t.
give it fair trial, well convinced
they will not regret it. So far as re
regards an Increase in the quantity o
cream, | cannot say from experience
though it is alleged to produce cream
of better quality and of increased
quantity. Those who sell milk ant
keep cows for this purpose cannot fai
to derive great benefit from the use o
oil cake in the manner above describ
ed, as 1t is a saving of money, while

: access in 1dreFfistNg.

In times past it was thought immodest to
proclaim the excellence of ones goods or to
solicit patronage for them in easpapers.
During the ast twenty-five years through
the immense competition in trade. 1t has be-
come a necessity. The public are always
desirous to avoid all frauds, rs they have
become skeptical Of an article possessing
genuine merit, and are particularly pre1u..
diced against sterling announcements OF
some new and wonderful medine without
character or worth. Still the public are
grateful to manufacturers or inventors OF ar.
ticles OF merit, even IL known as medicines;
full study by our most eminent chemists and
physicians, and embrace such principles ana
productions as Quinine, Chlorotorm, Chloral
Hydrate, Porous plasters, &c.
Success in advertising depends much upon
the intrinsic worth OF the article t:elf even
though it be medical preparation. AS an
evidence OF this, q celebrated physician OF
New York made great Improvement IN FOR
Gus Plasters by adding CAPCINE on account
OF its giving increased effect and quicker re,
lief and cure than any known meuiclcai
pl operty; he hesitated about advertising,
fearing his reputation would be injured. A

SOWING CLOVER SEED.- the time
is at hand for farmers to secure their
clover seed for sowing this winter or
spring, and as l have had a good deal
of experience in sowing seed fer many
years, will venture few thoughts
for their consideration.
If you waat good stand of grass,
SOW plenty of seed. My rule isto sow
one bushel of timothy seed on eight
acres of land, in the fall when | sow
my wheat; then in February or March,
when the ground is frozen, SOW the
same amount of clover seed on the
same land. AS general rule, Feb
ruary is the best time to sow; the sub
sequent thawing and freezing sinks
the seed deeper into the ground. Seed
sown in February will not come up as
soon as that sown i'll March, for this
reason. If you can guess when the
last freeze comes in March, and sow
then, you will be all right. provided no
draught sets in.
Some may think that the above
amount of seed is too much, especially
when they have to buy at present high
prices. But it will pay, were the
price higher than it is. The more seed
sown, the more plants you obtain.
When you obtain good stand it will
pay for the seed the first season. Be
very careful not to pasture closely in
the fall. have known even old pas
lures to be badly injured this way. II
you want a good winter pasture, take
a blue grass field. Take your stock of
of it, say about the middle of August
and let it grow until it is time to turr
or the blue grass.-Ohto Farmer.
