Have courage enough to review
your own conduct, to condemn IT
where you detect faults, to amend
it to the best Of your ability, to
make good resolves for future
guidance, and to keep them.
Onions given to horses as food
in the first stages of the epizooty
are said to be very beneficial.
They cause the animal to cough
and sneeze and discharge freely
from the mouth.
Every little while we read OF
some one who has stuck rusty
nail In his foot or some other por-
tion of his person, and lockjaw
has resulted therefrom. All such
wounds can be healed without any
fatal consequences following them.
The remedy is simple. 1t is only
to smoke such wound, or any
wound or bruise that is infiamed,
with burning wool or wooden cloth.
Twenty minutes in the smoke OF
wool will take the pain out of the
worst cases of inflammation we ever
saw arising from q wound.
Ounces can be raised as easily
as apples or pears in the way we
shall describe. There is no secret
about it. Get the "Orange" vari-
ETY.; see that they are entirely
free of the borer' before planting.
Set six or eight feet apart in rich
soil. Bandage the stem with two
or three Wrappings Of old muslin
or any kind of cloth, as far down
in the ground as possible, as the
roots start from near the surface
Let the bandages run six or eight
inches above the ground, ther
pack the soil compactly a couple
of inches around the bandage
and renew this every spring. Fine

BY ORDER OF THE PRESIDENT.

Colonel H. G. Whitley, ex Chief Of
the Secret Service otBthe Government.
was before an investigating committee
at Washington yesterday. When ques
toned relative to the disposition of the
Secret Service Fluid, the Colonel upon
oath stated that it was expended in car
tying elections. A goodlg portion of it
was used in New York aud other North
ern States, but by order of the Presi-
dent, thousands upon thousands of
dollars We're expended in the South.
that being the place where, in Grant 5
opinion, it would Do most good. A
portion of the money used for car
ryiug elections, Was extorted from the
people. whose will it designed to thwart
by Federal tax-eollectors. The clothing
on their backs; the tea and coffee which
they drank; the tobacco which they
smoked and the matches they
lighted their fires with. each and all
were taxed to furnish means to pu r.
chase votes to keep the Presidep t's
friends in Office and conceal the cor.
ruption of the Administration. Th is is
no falsehood of the opposition. 1t is

Bureau, a position which he filled to
the entire satisfaction of the President,
as he was capable of doing tb dirtiest

Sphinx, who has called a Cabinet meet
ing to determine the best course TO
pursue.
