The ANsoN HARDY PAPER CUTTER is by
far the best machine which can be o.,

machines have always taken the highest

is applied the Patent Movable Cutting

itself by It, the cutting board can be in

auth ority Of Governor Chamberlain
The pooplo Of that State resolved
not to resort to violence, but adopt
cd q mode of procedure much more
formidable and effoctivo than any
armed demonstration. They have
refused to pay their State taxes to
Governor Chamberlain, and it would
be useless to soil out their property,
rs no ono would buy it.
"Unlcss Governor Chamberlain
can compel the collection of taxes,
it will be utterly useless for him to
expect to maintain his authority for
any length of time. This state of
affairs must inevitably result in tho
abandonment Of MI efforts by Gov
crnor Chamberlain to maintai linn
self in the exercise, of the guberna~
torial functions Of tho State Of
South Carolina .u.
The view thus Expressed by Pres
dent Grant is strong one, and it
must be the view Of every sensible
man who looks with an impartial eye
on tho condition Of affairs in South
Carolina. No governments, or pre-
tended government, can succeed
when tho great body of tho people
refuse cithcrt to recognize its legality
or to obey it's mandates. Such is
tho position Of the Chamberlain
government in this State. Toistcd,
or attempted to be foistcd, upon tho
pcop.o by II Board OF C;tnvassers
acting outside OF the law, and by
pretended Legislature in positive
defiance Of tho Judgment Of the
Supreme Court. this government
II 1t may be SO tcrmcd-has no
strength whatever. Take away the
F'odoral bayonets, and it's last and
only stay is gone. These must be
taken away before many days, and
then the filthy concern will be mum
berod with tho things that were.

The average Radical leader cares
little for Threats of violence. He
locks himself securely within doors,
skulks behind a regiment Of Federal
troops, and laughs at the outraged
taxpayers. But Radical must eat
and he dearly loves tho crisp green =,

Withhold these from him, and politi-
cal power is u matter Of no consc-
quence. He would much prefer to
Ace away on the wings of the morn

Wells has been directed to take the
necessary steps. Don has always
been very severe in his comments

Fall Flowing.

Mr.. Harris, in the American
Agriculturist, SAYS: | am con-
WINGED that we shall find it to our
interest to work our land more
and more in the fall, and the ear.
lier the better. Our springs are
short, and we a:e in Il bury to
get in the seed; the land is we,
and il plowed in this condition,
we do mere harm than good. Ii
we wait until i: gets dry, it is apt
to turn up lunpy. and much har-
rowing, cultivasing and rolling is
required to get ii in anything like
good condition. Aud as every.
thing is crowding US, we are of
ten obliged TO put iu the crop
with some OF the land so hard
that, unless we have an unusual
Iy wet spring, the seed is long
time in coming up, and the crops
are "spotty." And it is these pour
spots that pull down the average
to such a low f.ure. | have III
my own barley field to day por-
tons that will proably give fifty
bushels per acre. and spots where
the yield will not be ten bushels
And yet these latter parts are
naturally the strongest and rich
est land in the field.

get through as best they could.
They are all Italians but two
stocks. The last time / saw
them all the Italians were alive
and in good condition, while
the two black stocks were near
ly all dead. The black stocks
were fine ones in the fall and
were well stocked with bees and
honey--in fact they were as
good as any stocks in the lot.
Last season the Italians did
much the better in storing hon.
ey in boxes. Now, / claim that
the Italians are better in many
very important respects. 1t is
well known that they are not
so cross as the blacks, and that
fact alone should make them
more valuable than the natives.
They areeasier to handle than
he black in any operation. /
know from experience that the
Italians will gather enough to
live on through the winter, when
the blacks won't, even with the
same chance OF doing so; thus
proving that they will work up
on flowers that the blacks pass
by or cannot gather honey from.
Neither is this all the claim they
have Over the black variety.
They arc much more beautiful
TO look upon, and one can go
nearer the hives 10 watch them
at work than 10 The hives of the
bIack bees. Such harmless pets
are much better TO have than
the err S. blacks that one can't
go near without being stung.
We never found any more
trouble in wintering the Italians
shan the blacks--in fact, we
have no trouble at all, SO far as
the bees are concerned.
