Coed Advice.

Ex-Governor Robinson, in recent
letter, advises the Greenbackers OF
this Stale not TO make separate nom-
nations this fall, but to act with the
parties, Republican or Democratic, to
which they respectively belong He
says the Congressional delegation of
Kansas, Senators and Representatives,
have voted on all financial questions
just as Greenback men would have
done, and he sees no good reason for
them, or making nomina-
tions against them. He wants the
Greenbackers to act with their old
parties, so as to the better influence
the action of these parties.

Nutritious Wheat.

At late meeting of the Scientific
Association of Ann Arbor, Michigan,
Miss Lou NJ. Reed, instructor in The
microscopic labratory, read q paper
on the microscopic Structure OF the
Different Kinds of Wheat" The va
rieties OF wheat examined were Claw
SON, Delhi, Egyptian, Gold Medal,
Russian, Schaffer, Tappahanock, Tread
we'll and Wicks. Ii these shc found
that the Delhi wheat had the largest
and thickest layer of heterogeneous or
nutritious matter. That it contained
really more nutritious matter than
any other kind of wheat, although
close to 1T and nearly identical with it
was the Treadwell wheat. The 9TH
erss however, were so far removed as
to present striking contrast. The
popular Clawson wheat was found to
contain the least nutritious matter OF

HARPER, April 27, 1873.
The citizens of this county are high
ly elated over the daily arrival of i'm
migrants. There has been over two
hundred quarter sections of land To-
Gated in this county since the first of
the month. "And still they come"
All who come here are well pleased
with the country, and it is generally
believed that for agriculture and
grazing purposes the largest portion
of this county hasn't its equal in the
State. We have not much timber,
but plenty of rock and the water is
simply immense, consisting of numer-
Gus springs, brooks and creeks, pure
as crystal. There have been quite
of citizens from your town
and vicinity out here this week, one
of whom was Mr.Jackson, the survey
or, who worked with US several days
and proved himself to be proficient
in his business, -accuracy being a
speciality with him. Hoping to see
more of the citizens from your county
soon, remain, yours with respect.

For the EAGLE.
From Gypsum.

Ed. EAGLE:-There was concert
given at the Spring Greek school
house on Saturday evening, the 9th
inst, consisting of vocal and instru-
mental music, essays, declarations,
etc. At an early hour the house was
well filed, when the following pro-
gramme was taken up and well exc
cuted by the following ladies and gen.
tlemen: Miss Jennie Hough, the Miss
es Bell and Louie Yapple, Miss Lizzie
Hellar, Mr.. J. ii. Graham and j. d.
Caldwell, assisted by Mr.. James Law
Lester McBee's string band. The rem
dering Of ''The Grave" by j. II. Ora
ham, and "Thanatopsis" and 1.-The
September Gale" by Caldwell. were
special features of the occasion. The
proceeds, fifteen dollars, were for the
minister in charge, Rev. Mr.. McCol-
lister.
On Sunday, the 2Sth inst, Sunday
School Convention was held, over
which Mr.. Horton Young presided.
The afternoon session was opened by
singing "Comc Great Deliverer,
Come" and prayer by NJ. Chapman,
superintendent Spring Greek Sunday
School. When the following ques-
lions were taken up and discussed:
1. What is the object Of Sunday
Schools?
2. Are all citizens morally bound to
support the Sunday School?
These questions were very credita-
bly, discussed by T. j. Clark, Horton
Young, II. 2. Silknitter, NJ. Il. Stat
ford, and many others. The follow
ing Sunday Schools were represented
and attendance reported as follows:
Pleasant Ridge, average attendance
fifty. Home Sunday School, average
attendance twenty-five. Vernon Sum
day School, average attendance TWEEN
ty. Spring Greek, average attendance
fifty. Whom the convention adjourn
ed to 7:30 p. m.
The evening session opened by sing
Ing, aud prayer by Ii. p. Silknitter.
After singing, the following questions
were submitted
/. What is the best means Of teach
ing the infant class?
2. What are the best incentives to
induce parents and children to attend
Sunday Schools?
8. Should non-professors be Sunday
School teachers?
All of which were ably discussed.
The singing, intermingled, was excel
lent. The convention then adjourned
at 1880, all agreeing that Sunday
School Conventions are good insti-
tuition and should be held oftener.

E1ploMcn Of Another Political Torpedo.

Another political torpedo has been
exploded for the double purpose of un-
seating President Hayes and ruptur-
ing the Republican party, but the ma
chine seems to have blown cut at the
touch hole. McLin, one Of the Flori-
dereturning board, has had an attack
of the same disease that laid out Eliz-
abeth Tilton, an awakened con-
SCIENCE" and comes out in confess
sion in which he says the returns of
Florida's electoral vote was fraudu-
lent. The matter has been worked up
by parties in the interest Of Tilden,
and it was expected the confession
would cause a revolution. 1t was
published in the New York papers
last Thursday morning, and outside
of Washington, did not create a rip
pie.
McLin had been an aspirant for
Chief Justice of New Mexico,to which
position the President nominated him,
but owing 10 his Incorporate habits
and general dissouteness of character
it seems, he was not confirmed by the
United States Senate. In revenge he
makes his terrible exposure for which
he is now laughed at by the Republi-
cans and cursed by the Democrats.

Dog Eat Dog.

The earth might be searched in vain
for such another collection of fools and
knaves SO the band who are now, in
Washington and elsewhere, attempt
ing to reopen the Presidential ques-
ton. The latest additions to the gang
are named Dennis and McLin, of Flor
ida, and more malodorous pair new
err hunted in couples. They have
plunged into the confession business,
and, as usual with confessing rascals,
admit, to begin with, that they played
very important parts they are now so
intent on exposing. In Florida, as in
Louisiana, it was unquestionably a
case of "dog- eat-dog" between the
Republican and Democratic knaves,
and the former came out ahead. Who
stuffed the most ballot-boxes or alter
ed the most returns will never be
known. Certainly the confessions of
men who admit that they swore false
ly 'to help the cause will not carry
conviction to any honest mind. The
title of Mr.. Hayes is settled beyond
question. The decision of it
was not made by the Florida
or Louisiana Returning Board, or even
by the Electoral Commission. He
was declared elected President by
Congress, the only body that had q
voice in the matter. Bill Chandler,
Monty Blair, McLin, Dennis, and the
whole tribe of them, had better retire
to some friendly range of hills in
North Carolina, find friendly cave
with a still in it, crawl in, and pull the
hole in after them. The sensible peo-
pie of the country are tired of their
idiocy.-G Globe Democrat.

The Catalpa---Nall's Letter---The Indians, and
So On.

Mr.. EDITOR Your paper of April
18th has in it many items of interes.
to some of your readers. First, the
letter from GARNER k'' has created
in our minds the query: Where or
how can we obtain the catalpa tree +?
Some of us are putting out thousands
Of cottonwoods because they grow
rapidly, and rel oicc to hear of u hard
wood tree that will grow as rapidly.
Then your sketch of the Indian pris-
oners has caused us TO wish that we
knew more of the history of their cap
ture. Very magy of your readers
were not here in 1874. And the read
ing of Nell's letter has aroused all the
sympathy one woman can have for
another. If we thought it would not
add sadness 10 her already unhappy
state of mind we would like to tell
her why we think she is called upon
to pass a cherries life and give her
our remedy, but fearing we might be
misunderstood, and thus pierce with
another thorn the already aching
heart, we forbear, and only say, dear
Nell" resolve to be happy your life
may be long one do not waste it by |
troubles. 1t would be a
good idea to get some good aunty to
give that husband of yours lesson or
two on domestic happiness. Now,
Mr.. Editor, hoping to hear from
Farmer X" soon again in regari to
he catalpa tree, we will close.

Yes, We Fave Heard From Sam.

Some solicitous friend drops US .
postal card, which reads:
"Have you heard from Samuel b.
McLin, lately?"
Yes, we have heard from Samuel b.
McLin lately, quite lately. He went
mp to New York to condole with that
other Samuel whom the Democrats
run fer President, and whom the
courts since say owes the government
$4,000 of unpaid income tax. Mutu-
al condolences begot mdtual big
drunk, and mutual big drunk begot
awakened cosciences, which caused
one Samuel to make fool of hiTself,
but which did not cause the other to
pay over the little sum he hao swim
died his government out of.
Has our interlocutor heard from
Sam, lately?

From Grant Township.
ON TIE HILL. April q, L

ON THE HILL, April "a, 1873.
ED. EAGLE:-The migration fever
that is raging so extensively in the
eastern States seems to be spreading
westward. Some of early settlers
think they see the sun shining on
greener pastures away over there, and
they want TO sell.
Al l look over the broad prairies of
Grant township, forming as they do,
such beautiful bottom farms, SO high
ly productive, anu upland farms that
vie with their lowland ncighbors in
producing grain and are so superior in
fruit raising, cannot help the query,
Why do men want TO leave such
paradise? God hath made it a para
disc in beauty and fruitfulness, and
there is nothing to mar its beauty and
fruitfulness but mans own nature. If
be allows his soul to be in harmony
with the surroundings Of nature in
every phase, surely he will look up
from nature to natures God. Then
love TO God and love to man will as
surely flow from his soul and as uatu-
rally as the green grass grows in the
spring, or as the flowers spring up on
the broad prairies to gladden. our eyes.
Some men think there is no paradise
in this world. Poor souls, Thsre
may be no paradise for them, but there
is for such as made it for themselves. |
To such as beautify their homes with |
trees, fruits and flowers; to such as
beautify their homes with love for
each other, that shows itself in their
actions toward each other every day
Of their lives; to such as practice in
every day life, toward their neighbors,
the great truth taught by the lowly
Nazarene centuries ago; to such rs
these, paradise and its joys are always
present. All! my friend, it is your
self that is lacking. You have wor-
shipped self and self-aggrandizement
ill you have got it SO circumscribed
hat you cannot see the good, the true
md the beautiful that is all around
-ou. All nature is saturated with
Deity, yet thy God is away beyond the
londs. Thy heaven is away beyond
he stars and not in thine own soul,
where it should be. Bring thy God
nd thy heaven and thy religion all to
well beneath thine own roof and then
hou wilt be in paradise.

Silver Dollars.

The amount of United States notes
retired during the present month, III
consequence of the issue of national
bank notes, will be about $l,200,000.
The Secretary of the Treasury orders
this amount TO be replaced by silver
dollars TO be paid out in the course of
business. This sum will be distributed
among the various sub-treasuries and
public repositories, so that to this ex-
tent silver dollars will be paid out for
currency obligations, This payment
of silver dollars will not interfere with
procuring silver dollars in exchange
at par for gold coin at any time.

A LAWYERS Opinion.

Everybody knows Archie Williams,
of Topeka, who was Attorney General
of this State for several terms. Well,
Archie has been visiting Washington,
and on his return from that city Noble
Prentis, who is now editing the Com
monwealth, caught him and proceeded
to pump out Of him lawyers opin-
ion. Archie is, as everybody knows,
man Of Independent views. He
thinks for himself; is not given to
hero-worship; isn't afraid to express
what he thinks and wants good evil
dence before he believes anything.
OF Congress, and the Kansas Sena-
tors and Representatives, Prentis re-
ports Archie as saying:
"The House, collectively, Mr.. Will
liams thought shabby and disreputa-
Bile. Perhaps his opinion was influ-
enced by seeing the Hon. Mr.. Douglas,
of Virginia, 'bilin' drunk on the floor
of the House, or going down Pennsyl-
yania avenue attended by numerous
and shining routine of hoodiums and
bootblacks. LII this molly crowd it is
a consolation to know that our men,
bers preserve their dignity and decen-
cy, and attend to the business entrust-
ed to their care.
"Mr. Williams expressed great con-
fidence in the outcome of Senator
Plumb. He felt certain that the quail
tiles he has displayed in his past life
ergy,perseverance and square sense,
would stand him in good stead in his
present position. lie is sincere
man, and those who meet him can rely
on his saying what he thinks.
"Mr. Williams is, we think, about as
chary Of praise as any man we know,
but he unhesitatingly stated that he
thought Senator Ingalls, had done
more to make Kansas respectable
than all our previous Kansas delega-
ton put together. A gentleman in
his manners, scholar in his language,
he is, withal, master of verbal force,
and his sentences are sharp, bright
and sharp as the thrust OF rapler.
When this sort of mental activity is
called for, Mr.. Williams doubts if Mr..
ingalls, has his superior in the Senate.
The impression, perhaps naturally
drawn from this, that Mr.. Ingalls, is
caustic and cynical in private life, Mr..
Williams says is far from correct. No
more kindly or courteous gentleman
sits in the Senate of the United States.
"Of Col. Phillips and Mr.. Haskell
Mr.. Williams had little to say further
than that they lived cleanly' and at
tended to their business.
"Of our own member, Mr.Ryan, Mr..
Williams said he had always been of
the opinion that good lawyer-as he
knew MrRyan to be-would not make
a successful Congressman but he had
been agreeably disappointed. He
found Mr.. Ryan patient, studious, al
ways in his place, seldom taking any
relaxation or rest, anxious to learn
his duties, and successful in doing SO.
He is not a member from Topeka,
merely, but the member from the
Third Congressional District, anxious
to do his duty by every section"

The Senator is very popular among

He thoroughly understands parlia-

Chicago is somewhat alarmed over
late demonstrations of Communists,
about eight thousand of whom are
armed and who daily drill upon some
OF the streets. 1t is feared that in case
Of another strike this summer they

Phosphate of Lime in Kansas.

Kansas City, Mo-, April 27.-For
some time past Prof. VIM. Patrick, of
the Lawrence University, has been
making extended explorations along
the line of the Kansas Pacific railroad
in Kansas, and yesterday he was re-
warded by the important discovery of
phosphate of lime in great quantities
near Wakeeney, three hundred and
twenty-one miles west of Kansas City.
Similar material is found in Georgia,
and some of the Southern States, and
is shipped north aud to Europe, where
it is used as fertilizing matter. 1t is
most important discovery, and will
prove of great value to Kansas.
