In view Of the prospect OF the Demo-
erats having the next Senate, the Repuo-
leans are now proposing to be more lis
bsral In giving the Democrats more
equal representation on the committees.
The committees are very unfairly organ
ised against the Democrats, and they
well understand that the present motion
of the Republicans proceeds from policy
and self.lntersst alone.

HON. A. A. GLENN's BANK sUCcUMBs TO
THE TINES.
lQuincy Times.l
The citizens of Mt. Sterling and Brown
county were somewhat startled last Mon
day morning to learn that A. A. Glenn
had failed and that his banking house was
closed. The Message says: "At first
some seemed TO think it canard, as they
imagined such thing almost impossible,
but the revelations that soon followed,
we are sorry to say, proved the report to
be too true. AT first Mr.. Glenn thought
OF entering into voluntary bankruptcy,
but finding that IL was too expensive he
concluded to make an assignment under
the insOlvent laws OF this Slate, believing
1t to be for the best interests OF his cre>
diors. William l.. Taylor is the as,
signee.
His liabilities, we understand, are be-
tween $50, 100 and SIC, 900, and from what
we can ascertain of his assets Mr.. Glenn
will probably be able to pay from fifty
to sixty cents on the dollar. This blow
upon one OF MIR. Glenu's age ia inde, q
heavy, and the sympathy OF many
friends is extended to him. He has
'rnwn up in our midst, has had the cor
hience of our entire people ard gradually
rose from u poor OK driver to that Of g
banker, only to lose his hard earnings in
his old age. 1t is unfortunate, sad @
contemplate, and VIC must acknowleGl G
that 1t Is with a feeling of the dpeppsl
sorrow that we chronicle his failure.

OK THE USE OF MULES Mules, on
general average, live more than twice as
long as horses. They are fit for service
from three years old to thirty. At twelve
horse has seen his best days. and is CO.
scarcely risen out of his childhood, and
goes on improving until he is twenty.
Instances are recorded Of mules living
sixty and seventy years. but these are
exceptions. The general rule is that
they average thirty. Mules are never
exposed to disease as horses are. I'm
mense amounts of money are annually
lost in the premature death Of high-spir.
tied horses by accident and disease.
Mules have organs of vision and hearing
far superior TO those Of the horse.
Hence they seldom ffighten and run of.
A horse frightens, but mule. having
superior discernment, both by tho eye
and ear, understands everything he meets,
and therefore is safe. For the same rea.
son he is surer footed, and hence more
valuable in mountainous regions, and on
dangerous roads. We doubt whether on
the Alpine paths mule ever made o
misstep. He may have been deceived in
the firmness of the spot where he set his
foot, but not in the propriety of the
choice. all appearances considered. The
mule is much more hardy than the horse
A pair of these animals, although small
in size, will plough more land in q week

might be very proper time to discuss
the labor question. SO far as the inter-
este Of agriculturiats gre concerned, this
is the most important question that has
ever claimed their attention. Very soon
1t must receive satisfactory solution,
and until this desirable point IS reached
there can be no material advance in the

ers to IL plan which has been satisfacto-
rily operated for the past year on the
farms of the Mcasrs. Adger near pendle-
ton. The plcn is to give to the laborer
one-third of, all crops raised, the land
lord finding everything except the labor
in the production OF said crops, manure
alone excepted. The labor of all the
hands employed in the cultivation Of
crops OIL said farms to be absolutely un-
der the control of the landlord, or his
agent, for the entire year, and when no.
employed directly in the cultivation and
gathering Of crops to he paid for at fixed
rates by the day, week or month, or by
the job. The management of the labor
on these several farms (Rcv. J. b. Adger,
Capt. j. f. Adger, and J. b. Adge jr.)
is rs systematic and continuous rs the
labor in factories or other industrial in
stitations Of the Northern people. AT a
given signal the hands report for instruc-
tions from the manager for the day, and
whatever in his judrront is best To be
done is unhesItatingly performed by the
laborers. In this way the 'abor on the
farm is utilized, either in the preparation
for and cultivation of crops, or otherwise
in the improvement Of the farm, for
which labor reasonable remuneration is
made. The practical results Of the above
system is, that the farm is kept up in a
progressive state of improvement, and
the crops raised are cultivated on the
most approved style. The laborer ut the
close of the year is satisfied, becaaae the
extra wages obtained enables him in
some cases to maintain his family, lcay-
ing his entire crop unincumbered. The
interests of both PARTIES are thus en-
hanced, but it is done mainly by we'll
directed, unremtting and continuous
labor. Let the above subject be thor
oughly discussed, that correct solution
of the labor question may be obtained.

Mr.. MOODY AND THE BABY.-Inci.
dents which severely try the patience of
pastors and congregations occasionally
occur in all Christian churches. They
are among the infelicities of public wor-
ship. Il clergyman interrupted in the

he does not feel ut liberty to express.

OF this nature To point u moral. This

It was an evening service. The house
was densely land when was it osherwise7)

twice as many eyes and ears were looking
and listening to Mr. Moody. An impas-
stoned and eloquent portion of his SER
mon was interrupted by the loud crying
OF an infant. Mr.. Moody paused, and,
turning to those sitting near him, entered
into conversation with them. The moth
er soon succeeded in quieting the child,
when Mr.. Moody with cheerful express
s!on Of conRtenance resumed: but not
more than FIVE minutes elapsed before O
louder vail was heard. Mr.. Moody again
paused and entered into conversation un-
til the mother second time succeeded

few minutes, however, the baby's voice,
was heard for u third time. the mother
and father simultaneously rising, with
the evident intention to depart. That
seemed almost hopeless undertaking, for
they were seated in the centre of the im-
mense audience. The parents succeeded
however, in reaching the middle aisle.

cure for himself the rent of land thus

use Of teams and implements, and thus
lose nothing. On the other hand, the
labOrer will secure his bread much cheap
er than he can In any other manner. As
to meat it would be better-to avoid com
plicstion--for the farmer to take the
whole of that matter into his own hands,
and furnish his laborcrs. AS heretofore
shown, hogs can be raised very cheaply
by utilizing wild fruit-bearing trees, and
planting crops Of potatoes, chufls, etc.

Preparation OF EIanure.

Perhaps the time will never come when
we can dispense entirely with the use oi
commercial fertilizers. IN Europe and
in. the Northern states, where the keep.
Ing of stock and making of barn yard
manure have, from time immemorial,
been regarded Us the road to successful
farming, the use of commercial fertilizers
is rapidly and steadily on the increase.
The South on the other hand Is wisely
rctrcnching in this direction, by utilizing
materials on the farm, which, mixed with
cheap commercial fertilizers, render them
equal in value to the most costly. We
refer to composts of cotton seed and acid
phosphate. which cost very little more
than half as much as ammoniated phos-
pilates of the same agricultural value.
AS another step in the same direction, we
suggest that composts Of cotton seed and
ashes be made, to demise still farther the
purchasing of materials obtainable only
beyond the limits of the farm.. These
composts should be made exactly like
those with acid phosphate, adding to
eight bushels of green cotton seed the
same amount of unieached dnshes-rnixing
the two thoroughly--wetting and tramp
ing them well, that they may rot slowly
and steadily. Rotten cotton seed and
decompose6 stable manure would be un-
suitable for such compost-it would be
best to use nothing but green seed and
ashes. The quantities above named
would be moderate manuring for one
acre of cotton-ahout aanal TO- that
amount Of phosphate compost which con-
tains enc hundred pounds of ncid phos-
phate. gf'i;t = S3fi
If all the ashes on farm 10 cafefully
husbanded during the whole year, enough
can be secured to manure quite a number
of acres Of lsnG. ss,s .aq,
We would suggest also bone compost
bones within reach be gathered up, and
a pile Of alternate layers of wood and
bones be made and fred. Where large
quantities arc to be burned it is best to
begin with q moderate sized pie, NOT
more than five or six feet square, and
three or four feet high, and as Il burns
down threw O.: mere bones and .sead M
til all the bones ore burned. If too great
heat is generated and the air Is excluded,
