Settled at LaSt.-The 10th Regiment,
Ohio National Guards, has been passing
through rather lively campaign for few
weeks past over the election Of field officers.
The contest was finally settled on Monday

HAHAN, to the following officers at the
store of Col. NEUBERr on Summit street:
Colonel HENRY G. NEuBERT, Toledo.
Lieut.. Coll. D. NORTON, Napoleon.
Major-J. J. NORMAN, Fostoria.
Col. NEUBERr has selected DR.. 7. J.

found skillful in dressing the wounds re-
ceived in the late contcst-and has his eye
on a fighting Chaplain who has seen serv.
ice. L. b. ACKERMAN, of Bryan, has been
selected as Regmental Quartermaster.
The remainder Of the field staff is yet to he
selected. The 10th Regiment is composed
of good material, and we trust will be the
pride Of Northwestern Ohio.

Made an Assignment. - Mr.. J. s.
PARKHuRsr made an assignment, on Mon
day, Mr.. JAS. II. PIERCE being appointed
Receiver. We understand that his liabil-
tiles are about ST, 100, and he turned in
property valued at 81 400. This is not
the last of an ill-spent fortune, but the
last Of 81, 900 which Mr.. p. had honestly
earned and lost within the past seven years.
He says that every business step taken,
which at the time seemed full OF promise,
seemed only to sink him lower, until the
end was reached as above stated. He is,
however, happy in the thought that he ID
the only sufferer in his losses, having no
bondsmen to suffer in any of his transac-
tions. Mr.. P and his son, THOMAS, have
arranged to start for Texas, on Tuesday
next, in company with Mr.. DONALDSON
where they hope to be blessed with health
to start life anew. They have the energy
and will. May 6ckle fortune smile on
their efforts

PRACTICAL FARM NOTES.

Farms, like steamships, have a given carrying capacity, and he only is an adroit farmer or mariner who loads with the best.
 Poor land is poor investment-so is poor stock, poor feed, poor anything. Have the best if you have to take much less of it. It will pay best in the end.
 Governor Vance, of North Carolina, attributes the destruction of the pure agricultural fair system to horse-racmg, three-card monte and prize candy.
 Tobacco leaves are fatal 10 COWS, as a Kentucky farmer learned few days ago by losing three valuable animals which ate some of the weed with their hay.
 It is estimated that more than 8 thousand packages of oleomargarine, or tallow butter, are used in New York city every week. Each package contains fifty pounds.
 Lorenzo Small, of Lisbon Falls, Me-, :, raised from one seed eighteen pumpkins, whose average weight was from eight to seventeen pounds; total weight, PIP pounds length of vine, 226 feet. That vine could not have been grown on poor soil.
 The best stock you can invest in is farm stock the best shares, blow shares; the best banks, the fertile banks of rural streams, since the more the latter are broken the better dividends they pay on the investment
 The experiment to determine the relative value of cooked and uncooked meal in feeding swine at the Maine Agri- cultural College are being continued. Seven years experience gives verdict in favor of the uncooked food as being the most profitable.
 A man in Salem, Or, cleared his premises of rats by catching one and pouring carbolic acid over 1t and turning it loose. The odor of their unfortunate friend appears to have convinced the other rats of the propriety of going else- where.
 The best way to protect the bark of trees from mice, rabbits or farm stock, is to tie a small bundle of dead branches around the part to be protected
 President T. T. Lyon, of Michigan, said that if he lived fifty miles from the nursery he would rather go all that dis tance to superintend the digging than buy trees and trust to others.
 Experience has proved that blowing Ill the fall IS one of the most effective as we'll as one of the quickest and easiest methods of fning the soil and that land which was plowed Tn the fall can be worked earlier in the spring, and more easily during the season, than will be possible if the plowing1s neglected. The New England Homestead says We have tried thls plan and found it to work so we'll as to merit acceptance as one of the "principles of agricultural practice.

Large Grain Crop in Russia.

The United States Consul at Odessa reports that the grain crop of South Russia for 1877 has been the largest harvested during twenty-five years. It was well gathered, and the grain is for the most part in good condition. The drafts made upon the laboring classes for the army obliged the planters to pur- chase, to larger extent than usual in recent years, agricultural machinery, by which means they were enabled to gath CT their crops with comparatively small loss. No new shipments of such ma-. chinery being possible, the large supply remaining on hand from 1875 and 1876 may be said to be exhausted. The paper rouble of the country depreciated from it's nominal value of R 62O to the pound sterling of Great Britain to R 10.55, or, in other words, the pound ster- hng advanced to that figure. and other foreign funds in proportion. Merchants of the continent and England placed credits to their Odessa correspondents who have sold exchanges on them and purchased enormous quantities of grain with the proceeds for their principles. This grain was bought at a very low price in the depreciated currency, and is stored, waiting the cessation of hostili- ties, for shipment. It will take its place in the markets of the world at so small cost to the purchasers, that it will no doubt have depressing influence upon the price of grain from other countries, a fact that is worthy of note by American exporters of grain.

What the Administration Thinks,

"What does the administration think of the refusal of the Senate to confirm it's New York nominations ?" was asked of a friend of the President.
 "Well," he replied, ''the administra- tion is little disappointed that the Sen ate does not think it's New York nomina- tions good enough to deserve contirma- tion. The President found it desirable as part of his public duty to try to i'm prove the management of the biggest business establishment in the country the New York Custom House. He thought it could and ought to be i'm proved, and selected three men -Roose- welt, Merritt and Prince-who, he be- lieved, would carry into effect his wish to conduct the Custom House on the best business principles. He sent their names to the Senate, which, under the constitution, is to aid him in making such selections. The Senate declares that two of the men he selected are not good enough men for the purpose. It cannot be supposed that the Senate dis approves the Presidents wish and deter minatlon to improve the management of the Custom House, especially after the developments in the Jay investigation. In effect, then, the Senate, by it's action said to the President: We approve of your desire for better management in the New York Custom House as mat ter of course think one of the men you have nominated, MT. Merritt, is a fit person to undertake the work, and we, therefore, confirm him. As to the other two they are in our judgment not good enough, and we return you their names that you may try again. That is a lit eral statement of the case" said this Re publican, {" for of course the President cannot suppose that the Senate, sitting as judges on oath, rejected his nomina- tions for any other causes than that in it's belief they were not fit. Naturally the President will try again. He may not agree with the SeAate's judgment on Messrs. Roosevelt and Prince, but of course It's objection is conclusive"

AS It Is NOW-a.DayS.

"So you love me, do youf" inquired a sweet girl of the youth who had been talking to her. "That's bad. What have done to deserve it? Have not always treated you we'll p
 "You have, you have ? was the earn- est response. "But why is it bad, oh pride of my heart ?''
 "I trust, she went on musingly, "you will not select the usual weapon If I must die want to go off in some unusual-not in the stereotyped, the con- mon and vulgar way Oh, promise me that you will not disappoint me in this It is my last request"
 "Why, what do you mean 9 inquired the youth, staring at her.
 ''I mean that I am obliged to refuse you. I am engaged to MT. Smith. You will kill me, of course. It is right that you should It is the usual way. But pray, pray do it with a dagger. Do not use the vulgar revolver. Let there be something nice and original in this tragedy. AS I said before, it is my last request. ;"
 "It shall be as you say," he repl1ed in husky voice; and in proof of his honorable intentions he fired his revol- yer in the air and rushed to the nearest hardware establishment.

Taxes on Editorial Faith.

One of the greatest trials of the news paper profession says Talmage, is that it's members are compelled to see more of the shams of the world than any other profession. Through every newspaper office day after day, go all the weaknesses of the world :; all the vapit1es that want to be puffed all the revenges that want to be reaped all the mistakes that want to be corrected all the dull speakers that want to be thought eloquent all the neanness that wants to get its wares noticed gratis in the editorial column in order to save the tax in the advertising columns all the men who want to be set right who were never right all the crack -brained philosophers with stories as long as their hair, and as gloomy as their finger nails in mourning, because bereft of soap all the bores who come to stay five minutes, but talk five hours. Through the editorial and reportorial rooms, all the follies and shams of the world are seen, day alter day, and the temptation is to believe in neither God. man or woman. It is no surprise to me that in this profession there are some skeptical men only wonder that jour- nalists believe anything.

Russian War Song.

The following is literal translation of n war song officially distributed to the Russian soldiery "Dost thou hear :? The alarm is sounded Up in ranks and files Pray to God and march to battle l! The Danube, that old friend, rolls it's waters quietly. It is black night so much the better Sleep no longer Let us prepare the pontoons The Turk loves sleep. The columns move God protect us It is time no longer to look cross the assault must be made Every thing that is called Musselman ought not to be made prisoner. They have massa- cred, burned alive, 1mpaled One ought not to regret do1ng them harm. With them there is no pity Kill! Attack with the bayonet Strike with the butt l That their account may be settled But don't draw back a step-it is better to succumb For the honor of Russia never yield May God preserve you from being taken alive They will make you undergo every outrage. God protects the brave Know no fear Should he con- quer, it would be better to die.''

Breaking Up Old HOmesteads.

It is common saying that the mem- bers of the same family should often sep arate, that they may the better love each other when they come together. Now to us this seems one of those modern doc- trines born of the restlessness and un- quiet of the tunes. In "old times" peo- pie did not need to take long journeys to keep their love fresh and green. Fathers and mothers lived together for long years without desiring to leave each other j; brothers and sisters dreaded nothing so much as breaking up the old homestead. No, if there is not that true love in the heart which can forgive and excuse little defects of character in those we love, 1t will never be engrafted by frequent sep aratiOns
