What are called ''good times" may
now and henceforth be enjoyed by
certain classes of persons, as q gener-
nj rule, with but very few exceptions
namely, by merchants who under
staud their business, have adequate
capital, are courteous to customers,
keep good stock of goods and ad-
vertise them judicioOsly. Nearly all
such men make money. Also, invent
ors who devise machines or contriv-
anceA which meet q general demand
and prove to be really useful and
serviceable. We may add all me-
chanics who have thoroughly learned
their trades and are sober, industri-
Gus, honest and courteous to employ
ers and fellow.work-men. Also,
bookkeepers and clerks who are act
i've, industrious and obliging aud
who always aim to promote alike the
interests of their employers and Gus
toners. Also, lawyers and profess
sional men who have thoroughly ed
ucated themselves, and who study
early and late to do their work in the
very best manner, by the very best
methods, honestly, squarely and COM
pletely. Also, ministers OF the Word,
who preach square gospel, straight
from the shoulder, and are devoted,
faithful and correct in their example
rs well "a precept. Also, members OF
the Legislature wo are intelligent,
honest, active, faithful and fearless in
the discharge of their duties. Also,
men who cultivate the soil, thorough
ly and economically, and follow it up
with raising crops for which there ia
q demand in q home market. Some
men dlsoays thrive in every commu-
nifty, no matter how "hard" the times
and many are in trouble, no matter
how "fush" the times are, and the
reasons are always obvious.-Spring-

A Farmers Stew.

A Canada journal remarks: In
Canada we have learned something
from the French about cheap living.
Perhaps our pot-pie came from them,
because they are famous for their
rich, wholesome stews. Take joint
of any kind of fresh meat-some like
beef. others like1veal. like mutton,
because my father kept long wool or
mutton sheep. In the city you can
get such . joint for dime, and in the
country it ought not to cost more. In
all cases put the meat in cold water,
add enough water to cover it, and
boil until it is tender-fOr beef and
mutton, say two hours, for veal say
one hour. Add salt and pepper
About half an hour before serving,
put in six potatoes, pared and quar-
tered, and let them boil with the
meat. In the meantime prepare the
dumplings by taking one quart of
-four, q tablespoonful of butter, and
two teaspoonflls of sifted baking
powder; wet with milk enough to
make stiff batter, SO it will drop
from q spoon; ten minutes before
serving drop the batter into the stew,
q spoonful at time, until all is in,
and then cover tightly and boil ten
minutes. II the meat is not sufficient
ly fat, add butter, but not otherwise ;
II is generally rich enough without
butter. The batter thickens the gra-
Wy as well as makes the dumplings.
Serve, Of course, on q large platter.
Here you have meat and the juice OF
the bone, potatoes and -four, all
healthy and nourishing, good for
brain, muscles, and bone. Enough
for large family does not cost TWEEN
ty-five cents; all like it; and we al
home have this stew ct least twice a
week.

Negroes Going to Kansas.

that more than a thousand negroes
have gone out of Mississippi over tht
railway to Kansas, there to take W

Mississippi should either grieve at OF
be in any doubt as to this exodus. A
few years ago there sat in the Con
gress of the United States q colored
Senator and colored Representatives
from the State of MlssisGippi. These
freedmen came there by the upheaval
of revolution, and their class could
not have long held such seats unless
they had developed men with the
personal power to sustain themselves
IN such positions. Mississippi, how.

they leave her now to seek their for

all honors and all chances are open
to them. 1t is not likely that color

sets Of mosquitOes-a gray fellow

A Brave South Carolina Girl.

tragedy, reported in November last,
was given in Columbia, 8. c., lately,
in the acquittal of Miss Sallie Pauline
Wood, charged with the murder of
Samuel Henry. The evidence show
ed that Henry had deliberately de-
signed and attempted the seduction
of Miss Wood, who is q very pretty
country girl, about IL years Of age,
and that he had threatened openly to
accomplish his purpose at all haz-
ards. On the 9Th Of November he
accordingly visited the house at which
she was living, and, after meeting
with prompt refusal of his improper
proposal, attempted by violence to eff
feet his object. A struggle ensued,
when the frenzied girl suddenly es-
capped from his grasp, secured y pistol
and shot him dead where he stood.-
The trial took place and the jury, af-
ter short absence, returned a YER
dict of not guilty. Local interest
in the affair was heightened by the fact
that the deceased was q married man
and we'll connected, while the girl
who slew him in defense of her hon
or, is little more than a child.

their raid on old Gen. Shields, with
the ex-rebel Gen. Field, first cuttlefish-

to give the old and needy Union gen

aside for rebel general just from ser

then they take money from the treas.

reform party: That is, to take money
from the treasury of the people to pay
Shields in order that they may give
the ex-rebel Field an Office over the
former. The next thing is to make
wounded Union soldiers only eligible

just said by their vote that the Union

fr his c0untry, was not eligible, but
that an ex-resel general was. Oh
