POSSIBLY the only victim TO the strike
excitement in this city was a youth who
was shot and killed in a riotous crowd
in the upper part of the city, and it is
quite likely that he was a mere observer,
and was made to suffer for the wrong do
ing of others. So now in Pittsburgh,
out of the score of scamps who worked
destruction there last July, committing
murder, arson, burglary and larceny, be-
sides breaking the peace and setting the
laws at defiance, only one has been con-
viCted, and he lad. His sentence was
made light because of his youth, and his
plea that he did what others, his elders,
were doing. Thus is a boy made the
sCape goat for the crowd of men and
women who inaugurated anarchy in the
second city in the Commonwealth DUR
ing the striRe troubles. Here is lesson
for our youth that should not 60 unheed-
ed. All boys know where good ends
and bad begins, and when they come to
the line they should pause, no matter
who or what urges them on, for they
will surely rush into danger else,-Phila.
Enquirer.
Several have been tried and sentenced
to the extent of the law, and seventy yet
remain to be tried. We hope the thirst
for vengeance on the part of our Phila-
delphia friends will be shaken when our
Allegheny County Courts and Juries get
through. 1t will then be in order to try
for murder the members of the first di-
vision of troops under Gen. Brinton, who
killed by.standers without orders, wan
tonly taking life in utter disregard of the
civil and military law, they were bound
as much as other citizens to obey, and
then after inaugurating riot, fled like
cravens, and whined about the citizens
not protecting them.-PittS. Post.

IT would seem that betting at horse
races is uncertain business. The great

those Southern gentlemen who had bet
piles on Ten Brock, at the rate of two

THE MICHIGAN COLONIZERS.

A meeting of the Michigan branch Of
the Allegheny, Pa, Advance ColonizaN
ton Society was held last evening in the
City Hall, Allegheny, Mr.. Hunter,
President of the society, gave lengthy
report of his trip to Michigan, where he
had gone to seek a location for settle>
ment. He gave a glowing description
of Grand Travis county, and produced
some products which had grown there.
Among them were onions three and a
half inches in diameter, and some full
grown apples from a tree only two years
old. Splendid timber, said he, is to be
had in this portion of the State, and al
ways has ready sale. Chicago and
Detroit are the principal markets.
The timber can be disposed of for So
cord, and there is an average of 40 cords
to an acre. 1t costs $24 an acre for cut
ting and 81 for shipping, leaving large
profit for the dealer Mr.. Hunter pro-
duced some specimens of wheat for
which he said the climate was admirable.
AS high as fifty bushels had been taken
from one acre. A committee of the soN
ciety is still prospecting in Michigan, in
company with committee from Woods
Run, and it is expected they will return
on Monday, when another meeting of
the society will be held. Mr.. Hunter
said he had decided to locate in Grand
Travis county, and recommended the
place to the society. 1t is their inten-
ton to bid good bye to Pittsburgh during
the early part of next month.-PttS.

The Republican party began as a sec
tional party, on sectional idea. Hayes,
finding it must die with the death of the
issue founding it, unless made more ma
tional, attempted to do 80 and failed.
Hence, logically stated, the Republican
party can no longer exist as sectional
party. The Republican party cannot
exist as national party, Therefore,
the Republican party must cease to ex-
Exchange.

THE FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
EHennery.

We advise every man to build hennery
on the same principle that farmer would
build barn; first for comfort; second for
convenience, and then add as much for ele-
gance and style as he is willing to pay for.
But such an expense should not be carried to
the business account, to be settled out of the
profits of the stock, but rather to the account
of ornament, to be paid for in the owners
satisfaction at fine appearances. The plan
we would adopt Tor poultry house, is this;
Build on a southeriy slope, if you can. Dig
out for a back wall, to be cemented up !;
then lay upon it a shed roof, the front prn-
cipally of glass, the root and sides shingled,
with tarTed paper between the boards and
shingles. 1t should be ten feet high in front,
walk three feet wide, running the whole
length, high enough from the ground to let
the fowls under, to scratch and 60 out into
the yard. Lay floor over the rest, with the
roosts on the back part, with shelves under
them to catch the droppiDgs, SO arranged as
to be removed and cleaned once week, The
nests for large hens should be about foot
high; for small ones, three feet high and
small at the entrance, running back two feet.
With such nests hens seldom learn to eat
eggs. Fasten the nests on the partition which
separates the walk from the coop.
A building thirty feet long and fifteen feet
wide, may be separated into three rooms,
large enough for twenty-five fowls to a ROOM
Such building can be put up for fifty dollars,
and is worth as much for all practical pur-
poses as the most elegant building, while
everybody that can afford to keep good fowls
can afford such hennery. Rule.
