cost of land and taxes. These lands
once produced large crops, and when we
have restored to them the elements which
have been taken away in crops, we can
make them produce as large and even
larger crops than they have done. Those
of Us who have small farms, and intend
to buy moro land, had better conclude to
intensity our farming and raise as much
on the land we now have, on our new
plan, as we would have done on the old
farm and the new one combined, will
double our profits, and save as the cost
and all the labor and expense of cult
yatinp the land we intended to buy. All
these things we will have to do to keep
the clergyman, statesman, physician,
lawyer, merchant, trsdesman, manufac-
turer and mechanic from starving, and
to keep ourselves living.

are still the most thorough and search
ing cathartic medicine that can NC
pmployed: cleansing the stomach anu
bowels. and even the blood. In small
doses Of one pill day, they stimulate
the digestive organs and promote Wig
orous health.
Ayers PILLS have been known FOR
more than 4 quarter OF century, ana
have obtained worldwide reputation
for their virtues. They correct dlS
nased action In the several assimila-
tive organs Of the body, and are 20
composed that distractions WITHIN
their range can rarely Withstand OF
rvade them. Not only do they cure
ihe everyday complaints OF every
body. but also formidable and danger
nus diseases that have bafiled the best
of human skill. While they produce
powerful effects, they are, at the same
time. the safest and best physic ior
children. By their aperient action
they grippe much less than the common
purgatives, and never give pain when
the bowels are not infamed. They
reach the vital fountains OF the blood
and strengthen the system by freeing
from the elements or weakness.
Adapted TO all ages and conditions
all climates, containing neither
.-sGomei nor any deleterious drug,
.hese Pills may be taken with safety
by anybody. Their sugar-coating pre-
serves them ever fresh and makes
: them pleasant TO take; while being
purely vegetable, no harm can arse
from their use in any quantity.

Editors of the Register:
Having seen nothing in the ROOSTER
from this part of the country, l thought
tina, perhaps you would find space for
faw lines from this section. We are
pretty much all farmers IN this part, and
make our living by the sweat of our
brows; but if the merchants, trades
men. and mechanics should pursue so
reckless course with their capital, goods,
or WAGES as the farmers do with the man
ure and other fertilizers, out of which he
ought to make his profit, they would each
fail and come To want. There must
be rnore brains IN the business OF iarm-
ing. The time has passed away when
physical force alone was guarantee Tor
success in farming. The farmer had
nothing to do, when the country was
new, but TO pillow, SOW, reap and NOW;
that time has passed away.
A degree of intelligence must take the
place Of physical furce, and the farmer
will have TO use his brains rs we'll rs his
hands.
Suppose We and our children farm Tor
ffty wears As our lands have been farRed
for the last fifty years, these lands will
not be worth isrlhing per acre Tor sg-
rieuliural purposes. And II the farmer
tails so will the trsdesmsn, Agricultural
and mechanic.
If upon US depends the welfare OF all
the other callings, let as make the posi-
tien correspond with the importance OF
our work. Small crops on large areas
will no, pay Us, but We are finding that
we car improve our lands and increase
profits by raising large crops on small
areas, instead of small crops on large
ones. Instead of farming two acres to
get given crop, We win make one acre
produce the same amount, thereby
saving the cost Of one acre in
the items of blowing, narrowing,

The NEW IRISH MovEMENT.-A new
Irish movement, led by O'Donovan Rosa
and the h1sh World, has gained more
Roadway than is suspected by the unin-
teIested portion of the public. OF course
it takes the form thus far of raising mon-
ey from Irishmen. Rosa has gone to
California to sgitste, and the IRISH
Worid, which has large circulation
throughout the United States, weekly
calls for contributions for what is descrlb-
ed as "a skirmishing fund" The profess
ed intention is to use the money in secret
operations against England. "By skirm-
ishing," saws one appeal, "thosc connect.

war in accordance with the plans and de-
sIgns best calculated to affect their pur-
pose is England's overthrow and Ire
lands liberation. To accomplish this
they intend to hsrass England by every
means within their reach; to strike her
in every vulnerable point; to use every
available means to bring about her deca-
dence and ruin. These blows will be
dealt by bodies of men. by single indi-
viduals, or IN any other way that circum-
strnces or occasion may command. AS

almost every instance the citizens had got
em too low. For instance, Deekin Pogram
had a claim for mule, a lot uysweet pota-
toes, and six lengths Nv rail fence. He had
put this in for six thousand dollars only,
wich wuz ahsurdly low. Ez the half goes
to the reform lobby. and the e1pences Nv

In a recent interview at the White House,
the President expressed his qualification at
learning that the rifle clubs and other arm
ed organizations inSouth Carolina had con-
cluded to heed the warning of his procla-
nation, and to stop their interference with
public meetings. He states most emphati-
cally that his sole purpose is to protect the
rights of the citizens Of South Carolina
without respect to party; that they would
all be treated alike; that the troops would
not be moved out of their garrisons if the
people were peaceable and were satisfied
that there should be fair election; that
however; troops in number sufficient for
any emergency would be sent to the State,
and that they would protect Democrats and
Republicans, whites as well as blacks, in
the exercise of their rights as American cit
izens. And that is all there is Of it.
1t would seem as if no one could find
fault with this, and yet democrats set up a
howl and declare the whole thing unconsti-
tutional; So it was at the beginning and
during the war The Government could do
nothing for its own protection and life, but
the same cry was heard. 1T was unconsti-
tutional." In Tilden's opinion, it was tres
pass, for troops to step upon Southern ter
ritory. s.

A Coed BEGINNING.


The only States which thus far have elect
ed members of the next Congress are
Maine, Vermont, Ohio aud Indiana. At
present they are represented by twenty Re
.publlcans and twenty-one Democrats; in
the next House they viii have thirty Re
publicans and eleven Democrats. This is
good beginning. The Democrats have one
majority in these States in the present
Congress. while the Republicans Will have
nineteen majority in the same States in the
next Congress. This is equal to "a change in
the voting strength of the parties Of thirty
eight votes. The Democratic majority now
is about seventy-fiye. A gain of eighteen
members in the States yet to hold elections
will give the next Congress to the Republi-
cans. There is no doubt but that the Re
publieans VIII have decided majority in
the next Congress; with the Senate and
Executive Republican, We may look for a
collapse of the Democracy, and an end to
theferrOriSm now careering over the South.
