CUT FooD.-Every close observer has
made the discovery that when solid grain
is fed to stock, large per cent. is not
digested; but passes off in the excre-
meut. In some cases, portions of this
undigested grain may be picked
up by the pigs and domestic
fowls about the lot, but the larger
amount of it is a clear loss. This may
be remedied by cutting up all the long
forage designed for stock, and having the
grain ground into meal, and sprinkled on
the cut food. Before the meal is sprin-
kled, the cut food should first be slightly
wet. This causes the meal to stick. to it
and gives stock relish for the cut food.
1t is useless to feed a COW on corn, be-
cause very little of it is digested. The
same is true with regard to meal but
meal sprinkled on cut straw or fodder, is
fine food for any domestic animal. 1t is
clear that when the food is thus prepared
it will take much less to keep an animal
in good condition, from the simple fact
that all the food that is given it is in q
digestible form. It is said by men who
practice this, or similar mode of feed
ing, that stock are less liable to collie and
bots than those fed in the usual way
Collie arises from disordered condition
of the stomach, and the stomach is dis
ordered by taking in food in improper
quantities or in an improper, or indigest-
ible state. There is little danger of a
horse having collie SO long as he digests
his food thoroughly, and he may have
collie at any moment when his stomach
does not perform its functions.- YORK.

The GREAT SHIPwRECK IN THE
ARCTIC SEAs.-The effects of the dis
aster, says the New Bedford Standard of
the 23d, will be to reduce the Arctic fleet
next year to very small number of yes
sells, the business being prosecuted only
by the most enterprisng merchants who
are willing and able to run the great risk,
as insurance Offices will not care to take
it. There are only two or three vessels
now in port suitable to send to those seas.
Two vessels are how on the way out, and
a merchantmen on the way to San Fran
cisco from this port, is fitted to go north
if it is deemed advisable, and with those
which escaped may form the entire fleet.
Some ships now at sea may also be
ordered north.
This disaster is only paralleled and ex-
ceeded by that of 1871, the news of which
reached this city on Sunday evening,
November 5, 1871, announcing that of
the Arctic fleet of forty-one vessels thirty
two had been abandoned, only nine being
saved. Of these vessels twenty-five be-
longed to this port, valued at 81 ,097, 900,
mostly insured in local Offices. The
catch on board the abandoned vessels at
that time was 965 barrels Of sperm oil,
1865 barrels whale oil and 100000
pounds of bone.

A SOLDIERS CoNFIDENcE.-One day,
when Napoleon l. was reviewing his
troops in Paris, he let fall the reins Of
his horse from his hands upon the ami
mails neck, when the proud charger gal
loped away. Before. the rider could re-
cover the bride, a common soldier ran
out from the ranks and placed the bride
again in the bands Of the emperor.
"Much obliged to,you, captain" said Ma,
poleon. The man Immediately, believed
the chief, and said: "Of what regiment,
sir" Napoleon, delighted with hisquick
perception and ready trust in his word,
replied: "Ofmy guards p and rode aNay.
AS soon as the emperor left, the soldier
laid down his gun, saying: "He may
take it who will" and instead of return
ing to the ranks whence he so suddenly
issued, he started for the company of
staff officers. They were amazed at his
apparent rudeness and disobedience OF
orders, and one of the generals contempt
uously said: "What. does this fellow
want here :" 'This fellow replied the
soldier. proudly, "is captain Of the
guard y ".You! my poor friend; you
are mad to say. .so,". was the answer of
the superior officer. Gle said it." replied
the soldier. pointing to the emperor, still
i'm sight, II ask your pardon, sir" said
the general, respectfully, q gwas not
aware of it." And so the soldier came
duly to his post as captain Of Ahpoleons,

ANOTHER HORRIBLE MURDER.-We
have to record another diabolical murder
similar to that of the Harmon family.
Two old country ladies, sisters, Mrs. Mary
Broadack and Mrs Martha stoddard,
living together near Durbins Creek
Church, in Laurens County, were brutal
ly murdered on the night of Wednesday,
the 25th. At the time our informant left
they were senseless and in the agony of
death. Mrs. Broadack who has been a
cripple for ten years. was cut across the
face and head with an axe and left for
dead. Mrs. Stoddard was struck across
the face and forehead with some heavy
instrument, and also left for dead. VIM.
Stewart, neighbor living half mile OF,
heard the screams, and when he reached
the place he found Mrs. Stoddard lying
in cotton patch, between the house and
spring, and Mrs. Broadack in the
kitchen, in the condition above
named. The house was sacked and
trunks taken out and broken open.
These old ladies had sold small piece
of land, a short time ago and it is sup
posed the murderers were after the pro-
ceeds of the sale, but the money had not
been received, and we are informed that
only some fifteen dollars, the proceeds of
sale of cotton was known to have been in
the house at the time.

test of every leading Republican in the
State, he ceased his enmity to the men
he had denounced, consented to be their
candidate for reelection, led a ticket
with men whose infamy he had held up
to public execration, and whose associa-
ton he had spurned for years.
Every Republican Judge of the Su-
preme Court of this State will endorse
this statement. Some of them have
given me this information. Why he
made this remarkable change can only
be left to conjecture-politicians say his
reward is to be the United States Sena-
torship. 80
Thus the man who had been praised
by good men of all parties has been
abandoned, not only by the Democrats,
but by every Republican judicial officer,
from the Chief Justice and the United
States District Judge down. His infiu-
ence for good sisgone; he is despised by
the best men of both parties hated by
those who use his past record for their
own reelection, and is left to a miserable
fate, whether elected or defeated. . His
representations of affairs in this State are
utterly partisan he seeks information
alone through his own creatures; re-
fuses to them the evidence upon which
his monstrous statements are made. One
of the Judges Of the Supreme Court told
me to-day that he had been warm
friend and supporter of Gov. Chamber
lain, but had been forced to leave him
since he had chosen to consort with
thieves
A Republican Ex-Governor of the State
told me Chamberlain had been a true re-
former until recently, but was now lead
ing the worst ticket South Carolina ever
had. The most recent evidence of the
untruthfulness of Gov. Chamberlain isin
his letter to Gen. DeSaussure and Gov.
McGrath of this State, promptly tele-
graphed to the Northern press by him.
| write of what I personally know.
The appeal of the Charleston gentlemen,
Messrs. McGrath and DeSaussure, was
not for the protection of the polls, but
for prompt protection to the defenceless
families on the coast and islands near
Charleston, daily enduring outrage from
the half.civilized negroes of that region.
Inc WnlCeS are UeluS uElVcH lIOHl Iueli
homes; women and children on the coast
are living in terror, or suffering fates
worse than death. The Governor had
employed no means to protect them, and
in this extremity committee of Charles
ton citizens came to Columbia requesting
the Governor to join them in an appeal
to Gen. Ruger for protection to the per.
sons and lives of defenceless women and
children. The Governor did not go with
them to headquarters, made lame ex-
cuses, and when he saw Gen. Ruger re-
quested him to use his discretion in COM
plying with their request. Levying upon
the visit made by the Charleston COM
mittee in behalf of humanity, when they
had left, he wrote, published, and tele-
graphed to the North letter based upon
Misrepresentation OF the object of their
visit. He has basely tortured the pitiful
appeal from the people he rules to an en-
dorsement Of his crime against their
liberties.

How a Wife Was Restored to Health.

An almost miraculous cure, says the
Chicago Tribune, is reported from Shell
don street, the patient being the wife of
a well-to-do citizen. She has for years
been ailing, or thinking she was ailing,
and recently took her death-bed and
kept her husband unhappy by lamenting
that she was going to die. Yesterday her
husband went out and got buxom
young widow, who is her particular alb
horrence, to come in and look over the
house. The dying woman heard him
opening doors and explaining things,
and lay wracked with indignation and
curiosity. Presently the buxom young
widow. departed and the husband re-
turned to the sick-room. No sooner had
he entered than she accosted him:
"Peter Whitehead Hollingworth, what
have you done?'
"Nothing, my love, nothing. Don't
excite yourself. Be calm. Only as you
were complaining that you couldn't get
up to see after things, aud that the house
was going to wreck and ruin, I thought
I'd ask Mrs. Dasher in to let me know
what could be done to save you trouble
and relieve your mind of anxiety:
ooh, you did?" she murmured with
deep inspiration.

eyes, and said that if she had, her way
she'd have new set Of parlor furniture
in, and less vulgar wall paper, but that
some people had no taste anyway, and
by the way, Maria, you and Mrs. Dasher
are pretty much of a size, amt you 7"
Then he fell into trance that lasted for
some minutes, then muttering, "Well,
perhaps they'll fit; if not, they can be
made over"
When the husband went home last
night he was surprised to see his dying
wife up and dressed, and bossing things
with metallic ring in her voice and a
glitter in her eye such as he hadn't seen
there for years, and when he innocently
remarked, "Why, Maria, I had hardly ex;
pected to see you up again." she said,
know it, you bald-headed old reprobate;
but I'll live to bury you yet, and if that
painted Jazebel GENES into this house
again I'll tear her into cotton waste and
iate strings"

Two SUNDAys.-You know that, in
crossing the Pacific it becomes necessary
to alter the reckoning of the days to con.
form to that of the Eastern or Western
Hemisphere, according as ship is sail
ing in one direction or the other. In
going to Japan, when the l8Oth degree of
longitude is reached (which is just half
way around the world from the royal OBJ
servatory at Greenwich, England, from
which longitude is reckoned,) a day is
dropped, and in returning one is added.
We crossed that meridian on the 9Th
inst, and so two days were put down in
the ships calendar as the Sth of June.
Now, as it happened that this was Sum
day, we had two Sabbaths succeeding
each other-one of which was the Sab
bath in Japan and in all Asia, and the
other the Sabbath in America and in
Europe. Some of our ships company
were puzzled to know which to keep /;
but | did not think it would do me any
harm to keep them both, aud shall always
remember with pleasure this double SAB
bath on the sea.-Dr. Field, IN Euangel-

About North Carolina

The New York Herald correspondent In
North Carolina reports that very large
vote will be polled In that state In Novem-
her as the result of the joint canvass or
Vance and Settle-2oo, 900 at least-and that
9he republicans will have gained much by
The canvass In organization and standing,
even II defeated. Both parties express them
selves sapguine Of success. The Herald cor
respondent thinks the result will be very
close, and that the majority either way VIII
be 80 small as 10 require the Official count to
determine IL. Ex-Governor David q. Reid,
one of the oracIes Of the democratic party,
estimates vance's majority at $500, while,
on the other hand, Ex- Senator Thomas L.
Clipgman Is reported to have expressed
bis belief not long ago that Vance would
be defeated. A prominent democrat In
the western part of the state says. in
q letter To another democrat, that In
Clay, Cherokee and vain, Macon and
jackson counties. Vance will fall be-
hind Merrimon's vote In 1872 "Hender-
son, be writes, will give Settle heavy
majority. Madison will 20 radical by q

county In the west where Vance Will get
MerrimOns vote unless IL is Buncombe and
Hancy, but in every traDsmontane county
Settle will gain on the Caldwell vote. 1
think there IL no doubt Of this. In jackson
county Settle made fine impression. His
friends were elated, and the democrats were
Lhun6erstruck at his boldness. 1t hurt, and
there " as no jubilstion after the speaking
was over. tell you there is no hope here for
Vance, and unless he makes heavy gains In
the east and In the center he will be defeated. -
The correspondent hears of q good IN any
democrats who will vote for Settle, but says
these will be more than counterbalauced
probably, by negro votes for Vance. The
constitutional amendments proposed are O
damaging weight upon the democrats, and
these will undoubtedly be rejected by a large
majority, though many of them are meri-
torious and ought to be adopted. AS to the
election OF Congressman, the eight districts
OF the state are so gerrymaudered that the
only district certain to be carried by the
republicans IL the second, no represented
by . colored man by the name of Hyman,
but In which Governor Bragden is the repuD-
lican candidate. Eight Thousand republican
majority IL sunk In tnis district under the
gerrymandering process. Just as In Indiana
the republicans are benefited by this pro-
cess, the democrats are benefited In North
Carolina. So the pot cannot call the kettle
black.
