II is reported in Washington that Mr.. Til.
den and his friends have been comforting about
trying to open the presidential issue again by
a writ of quo warrdnto before the United
States court. 1t is said to have been agreed
that his case "woud be stronger if action
were reserved until after the pending judicial
proceedings IN Florida were disposed Of and
the president had taken action, as they feel
confident that in carrying out his policy of
pacifca:ion he will be compelled to make con-
cessions which will weaken his own official
status. The probabilities are, therefore, that
nothing will be done till this anticipated mo-
ment arrives" The New York Express of
Wednesday says that legal papers for the suit
are all prepared and in the hands of Mr..
Merrick, of Washington, who represented Mr..
Tilden before the electoral commission. 1t
further intimates that the suit will be begun
as soon as the troops are Withdrawn from
South Csroina-presumably waiting SO as to
do no needless injury to Governor Hampton
FINALLY it is alleged that the ground of the
suit will be that while the electoral commits
sion was prohibited by the electoral law from
'going behind the returns" there would be
no such impediment to the court which could
take as much aliunde evidence as it should see
| fit, and thus inquire into all the facts.
In the Massachusetts legislature, where a
constitutional amendment comforting the right
Of suffrage upon women is warmly and seri-
ously advocated, the opponents of that pro-
position are combating it by the circulation
Of a letter written from married lady who
formerly resided in Massachusetts but now
lives in Cheyenne City, who was asked to de-
scribe the practical workings of the woman-suf-
frage system in the territory of Wyoming She
says ''t is the greatest curse that ever befell
the sex since the christian era" and gives as
her main reason that it destroys the peace of
| families and breeds dessension between wives
and husbands and mothers and sons. A num-
Der of illustrations of these results are cited
which purport to be records of her own do
nestle life and the experience of her acquain-

Transplanting.

The only advantage which is claimed for Fall
transplanting over Spring transplanting is that
the roots become settled in the ground, and new
fibres are formed, which induce an earlier Spring
growth, and q more reciprocal action between
leaves and roots. We not advocates of Fall
transplanting for the climate of Chicago, Boston,
or even New York, except for those plants which
are never injured by our severe cold, or extremes
of temperature. But for those who have al.
ready settled upon transplanting this Fall, we
would say-do it now as soon it can be well
done. If it is fact, that the roots will make a
fibrous growth, which is not killed by alterna.
tons of freezing and thawing, then the sooner
they are transpanted the better, after the leaves
have ceased to act. This may be ascertaned by
the first discolOration of the leaves, which is
proof that their cells are clogged with insoluble
matter, that they no longer receive sap from the
roots, and that they have, consequently, no long
er the power of celebrating material for their
own support, or that of the plant upon which
they still exist.-Raral Netc Yorker.

FALL FLOWING FOR CoRN.-Heavy clay soils,

One of the most marked instances of courtesy
on record is that attributed to the Hon. VIM. K.
King of Alabama, once Vice-President of the
United States. While he was President in the
Senate, the two Senators from Arkansas made q
point of pronouncing the name of their State
differently, one calling it Arkansas, the other
Arkansaw. Mr.. King, in naming the respective
gentlemen, invariably gave to each his chosen
title, punctiliously calling one "the gentleman

they shonld be well sorted and classified accord

sending to market few samples of average size

barrels of the same fruit sorted into two grades.
The result was, that we received just as much
