8OILED ERMINE.

One or two points developed in the cross
examination of Ex-Congressman Darrall
should not be overlooked. He testified that
Anderson had had several conferences with
Harlan in New Orleans at which the Weber
agreement and the Sherman letter formed
the topic of conversation. In these inter
views Harlan exhibited great solicitude for
the safety of these documents, and entered
into negotiations for their surrender.
Harlan was also cognizant of the existence
of the corrupt Nash agreement, and OF the
fact that Anderson had made false protest
against counting the returns from Feliciana.
Knowing these facts and that upon their
suppression hung the title of Hayes to the
Presidency, John NJ. Harlan, even then an
aspirant for seat on the supreme bench,
associated with Anderson and entered into
negotiations with him to defraud the Demo-
cratic party of the fruits of the victory it had
fairly won. AS a reward for the surrender of
the tell-tale documents he promised that
Anderson should have such an Office as
would pay him for his trouble. In this way
he not only connived at but became an
active participant in a conspiracy by which a
fraudulent President was install
ed in the White House, and
laid himself open to prosecution as sub
orner of perjury. And this is the man whom
Hayes has honored with seat upon the
supreme bench, and these are the services he
rendered as an equivalent for the preferment.
AS long as such mon are placed upon the
bench as reward for such services, can we
expect the Judiciary of the United States to
command the respect of the people either at
home or abroad? The prostitution of the
judicial Office to such base uses is sure to
culminate in an utter disregard and con-
tempt for the law and for its Interpreters.

CHAPTER w.

Posy found out before very long that her
new life was not destined to be all sunshine,
nor her roses of triumph quite devoid Of
thorns. With her master she got on swim

nounce her his best pupil, and to hold her up
as an example to her companions. But this
very favoritism won for her some enemies
among those who were jealous of her supe'
rority, and chagrined at having one so much
their junior placed above them. She was, at
least, four or FIVE years younger than any
other member of the corps, and from her di.
minutive size, appeared even younger than
she was-a fact by which the manager profit

LEFT HANDNEss.- Many parents try to
cure their children of lefthandness by using
severe measures, such as whipping or oblig-
ing the child to 60 for weeks with the left
hand tied to its body. Some even 60 so far
as to make it matter of modification. These
should never be tried until patient trial of
pleasanter measures has failed. Left.hand-
edness certainly produces an awkward effect,
but it is not one of the cardinal sins. 1fa child
can be taught to write with her right hand, to
use her knife, fork and spoon properly, raise
her glass and offer the right hand in saluta.
tion, it is by no means necessary to cure her
of using the left hand occasionally. In many
cases, to be ambidextrous is invaluable to
women. All needle.work should be careful
ly taught with the right hand as needle
holder, but left-handness should not be treat
ed as crime to be punished. The child
should be kindly told of its disadvantages, and
shown how awkward it looks. A pretty coral
bracelet of beads, strung on elastic, worn
on the right hand, has marvellous effect on
lefthanded girls, and is always worth trying.

TIT FOR TAr.-In the partition between
two of the cells at the county Jail at Paducah,
KY, is a small, round hole, about an inch
and half in diameter. On one side white
man was confined, and negro woman on
the other. The other morning the man call
ed the woman, and when she looked through
the hole he spit tobacco juice in her eye,
paining her very much. Elated with the
sport, he called her again in the afternoon.
Instead of putting her right eye in range
again, the woman jabbed a sharp stick
through the hole this time, which, entering
his eye, caused him to roar with pain and
rage. The doctors think the ball will have to
come out, and the general verdict is, served
him right.

or otherwise, in the opinion Of his family,

in shallow grave, and left there for three
years, during which time many offerings Of
food and wine are placed upon it. At the
end of the third year the bones of the dead man
are dug up and carefully washed, put into a
linen bag, laid before the altar in the church,
and, after receiving the blessing of the priest,
are finally buried for good.

stage.society, and which, indeed, she felt no
interest in listening to. Coarse as the major
ity other com mpanions were, they appeared in
some way to be sensible of a difference between
themselves and her, and to recognize in her,
though in outward surrounding as poor and
common as themselves, a nature more eleva-
ted than their own. 1t was this feeling-ad-
ded to the circumstances other extreme youth,
her gentle disposition and sweet temper
which made her always ready and willing to
do any little service for them in her power,
and to the fact that, Notwithstanding her po-
sition as the acknowledged favorite, both of
her employers and of the public, she never
presumed upon this distinction to give herself
any airs of superiority, which made them,
with very few exceptions, considerate and
kind, and more polite in their intercourse
With her than they we're among themselves.
At all events they did not seem to do her any
harm and her mother, who kept a jealous
watch over her, never suffered her to keep
company with them outside of the theatre, or
to seek amusement in the streets after the
fashion of many of her class; but encouraged
her, when not occupied in her professional
duties, to employ herself quietly at home.
1t was through bitter experience that Mrs.
Manuel had learned to what evils one in her
situation, without proper guardianship, was
almost certain to be exposed and her in
tense love for the beautiful and innocent
child, created in her the firm resolve to shield
her from those evils while she had the
strength and opportunity to do so. This love
did something more, too; it made her strug-
gle heroically against sins and weaknesses to

was missing. A messenger was sent to her
house to inquire for her, and returned with
the answer that she had left home for the
theatre an hour before. The ballet had to 60
on without her. At its close, Posy found old
Clervaux waiting outside, with pale, fright
ened look on his face. The manager came
up, and some hurried words passed between
them. Posy tried to overhear them but just
then her mother approached and led her
quickly away.
"What's the matter, mammy?" asked Posy'
"Has Adrienne gone away p
II don't know, honey" was Mrs. Manuel's
reply. "Don't you be asking any questions
about her-better leave her to them whose
business it is to look after her."
Posy was mysti6ed. Not ask questions
about Adrienne, who had been so good and
affectionate to her, and whom her mother,
like every one else, had liked so much. She
felt, instinctively, that something was wrong
but though greatly troubled, she obeyed her
mothers mandate, and let the subject drop.
Not the less, however, did it continue to oc-
cupy her thoughts, and when several days had
passed, and still her friend did not return,
she could not refrain from going, secretly
round to Clervaux's house, in order to find
out there, what had become Of her. The
house was shut up and deserted d! She asked
an old woman, who lived next door, if she
could tell what had become of the family.

Sulphate of Ammonia.

Mr. Roswell Foster, of johnson, writes
"Will you please inform me, through the
columns of your paper how to apply sulphate
of ammonia to land as a fertilizer for grass
and ordinary field crops ; and where to OBJ
tain it 2" Sulphate of ammonia is sold by
all dealers in fertilizers. We have bought
it of the Bradley Fertilizer Company, and
of w. II. Bowker & Co., both of Boston.
For grain or hoed crops it is applied both
broadcast and in the hill, the same as a SUI
perphosphate, and narrowed or cultivated
in. 1t should not come in direct contact
with the seed, and usually does best in con-
nection with ashes, but the two should not
be mired-each must be applied separately,
and worked into the soil. Two hundred
pounds of the sulphate is a good dressing
for an acre of grain or potatoes. We have
not had Cor seem good success in top-dress-
ing old mowings with any chemical fertil-
zers But new seedlings would be greatly
helped by the sulphate in connection with
ashes, especially on light lands. The sui
phate of ammonia is special fertilizer for
wheat, and almost always pays well on that
crop. Two hundred pounds will cost about
ten dollars--and will, we think, usually in
crease the yield of wheat on an acre as much
as twelve or fifteen bushels-say double the
crop on land that would give fifteen bushels
to the acre without it. Yet if the land were
deficient in potash or phosphoric acid, the
sulphate could not have its full effect, and
that is the reason why it does best with
ashes, which supplies what the sulphate
lacks of being a complete fertilizer.

not the man the office" more farmers will be
found in prominent places than nowadays
But while so few farmers figure in the
national government, we can at least con-
graduate ourself on living in state whose
legislature always contains majority oil
farmers. Won Bismarck says that Vermont
is the most perfect democracy on the face oil
the earth. She is one of the few states that
are out of debt. She has not yet repealed
her usury laws Though she rarely enforces
them). She does not vote away the public
money for the benefit of railroads, or any
other corporate monopolies. She is a little
od.fashioned and little slow on the sub
iect of free schools and colleges, but she is
moving; and by going moderately she VIII
avoid the costly blunders of her neighbors.
She raises her own food, and sells more than
she buys. Her people are temperate, fru-
gal, generally moral, industrious, intelligent.
She is all this under government the ma
iorty in which are farmers. The town gov
ernments are almost entirely in the hands OF
farmers. In all these points the experiment
of farmer-rule is a success. 1t would raise
gale of ridicule in polite circles to suggest
the extension of the experiment, on mod
crate scale, to national affairs. We hope,
however, that it would not make things any
worse than they are now.
