In short, the MORNING APPEAL will keep

Frauds Of History.

The first social meeting of the Yale
alumni association was held last even
ing at DelmOnico's. A large number
of members were present, among others
Edwards Pierrepont, Prof. Wheeler, E.
c. Stedman, Braynon Ives and the Rev.
DR.. Jessup, of Beirut, Syria. Prof.
Wheeler read paper, in which he eX-
posed number of popular historical
tales. The famous saying attributed to
Louis XIV. of France, "L'etdt c'eSt
mOi," according to Prof Wheeler was
never uttered by Louis at all, but was
said by Mazarin twenty years before
Louis came to the throne, and said be-
fore Mazarin by Queen Elizabeth. Sap
pho never killed herself by jumping
from rock, but died a natural death
Leonidas fought at Thermopyle, not
with only 800 at his back, but with
1000. The philosopher Diogenes never
lived in a tub. The story of the virtues
of the Roman matron Lucretia must be
rejected, while the story of the Horatii
and Curitii is worse than doubtful.
The sons of Brutus were not the VIC
tins of their fathers firmness, but of
his brutality. 1t was utterly impossi-
BILE for Hannibal to have followed up
his victory at Canine, and the story of
his using vinegar to cleave the rocks of
the Alps is absurd. So, too, is the story
of Cleopatra dissolving a pearl in COB
let of vinegar and drinking up fort
une at one draught. Archirnedes never
said, "Give me lever long enough
and will move the world;n nor did he
cry out "Eurekar' at any known
period of his life or discoveries. Alex
andria was never visited by Omar, nor
was the Alexandrian library burnt. No
more did Calico say: "And yet it
moves for all thatr' since it is proved
from authentic documents that he did
not dare to. That Columbus broke the
end of an egg and thus confuted his
Knockers is fabulous, as is also the story
that he encouraged the followers with
brave words when the shores of San
Salvador were still out of sight. Richard
I'LL, of England, did not kill his brother
Clarence, and the story about butt of
Malmsey arose from the fact that the
body of Clarence, who died a natural
death, was transported from Calais to
England in wine butt. Charles ii.
never had the body of Cromwell taken
from Westminster Abbey and hanged
at Tyburn, for the daughter of Crom-
well, apprehensive of some such ill-treat-
ment, had her fathers corpse secretly
removed from the abby and buried in a
quiet churchyard. Millions daughters
could not have consoled their father in
his blindness by reading passages from
the old authors, for the best of reasons
they did not know how to read. AL
most the only story which Prof. Wheeler
did not demolish was the one about
Washington and his Ratchet.
York World.

possible. The advance made by some Indian
tribes is sufficient proof that a similar advance
may be made by others.
Whatever may be accomplished by the en-
ployment of force, ii is certain that only as
the Indians progress in the way of civilization
they will cease to be a troublesome and dis
turbing element.
The Sioux so far have given evidence of a
loyal spirit, and the rumors current of dis
position on their part to become hostile have
proved unfounded.
He also SAYS that great difficulty was en-
countered in sending supplies from Missouri
River to the new agencies. In consequence of
a combination of transportation contractors
to force the Government to pay eXorbitant
prices their bids were rejected and The organ
lZatlon OF wagon trains, to be manned by In
dams with their ponies, proceeded with. The
task was difficult one, owing to the charac-
ter of the country and the circumstance that
the grass has been burnt off the plains be-
tween the Missouri River and the new agen-
cies, as rumor has it by evildisposed persons
to bring about a failure of this experiment,
but it has so far been successful.
In regard to the outbreak of Bannocks last
spring Secretary Schurz saws 1t must be adj
mitted that they We're insufficiently supplied
with food, which, however, was owing to an
appropriation of money by Congress utterly
inadequate to their wants. The money availa-
Bile for feeding them amounted only to less than
four and one-half cents head per day. This
created discomfort among them. When the
murder of a white man was committed by an
Indian the Indian was arrested, tried and
hung. The discomfort grew into excitement.
A military detachment attempted to disarm
them, but with only partial success, and final
ly an outbreak took place.
As regards the outbreak of 300 Northern
Cheyennes the Secretary corroborates the
statements heretofore made by the Commits
siOner of Indian Affairs, in a special report on
this subject, showing that it was not caused
by hunger, nor by any neglect on the part of
Government officials to furnish them sup
plies, according to the treaty, but that on the
contrary they received ample supplies, and
more than they were entitled to. Secretary
Schurz adds:
While in many other instances Indian out
breaks are traceable to the treatment they re-
ceive at the hands of the whites, it appears
from the information quoted that in this case
the outbreak was owing to the mischievous
spirit of bad men among the Indians them
selves, and their determination to return
northward to their old hunting grounds. Near
ly all these runaway Cheyennes have been capt
ured or have surrendered, and are now held
as prisoners by the military authorities in the
interest of general discipline, and in order to
show the Indians that nothing can be gained
by such disorderly conduct. 1t is thought
best to return them to their reservation in the
Indian Territory, after having given the civil
authorities of the State of Kansas an oppor-
tunity to identify those who committed muir
ders and other crimes while passing through
that State, so that they may be dealt with ac-
cording to law.

tempted to break open the Jail door and
rescue the prisoner. At this point Tom
Little, of Compton, brother of Jason
Little, appeared upon the scene of the
conflict, and made an effort to quell the
riot, but was suddenly shot through
the body, which caused the jail
breakers to desist. The Allen party
deserted the Courthouse last night,
and the Sheriff and posse took possess
sion, thus commanding the door to the
jail No court has been held, and the
Circuit Court Judge suddenly disap-
peared this morning before seven
O'clock, leaving no orders as to the dis
position of the prisoner Little.
The latest news from Breathitt is in
special to the Lexington Press, dated
Mount Sterling, Nov.'30, which states
that Jackson is still in possession of the
mob, but that the champions of the law
are in possession of the Courthouse
and jail. Picket firing is kept up, and
many citizens have been killed and
wounded. NO action has yet been
taken by the Governor.

Where to Raise Sheep.

Heretofore we have indirectly thrown
cold water on sheep husbandry, but it
was only on the careless and slovenly
way it has been attempted in the
Northwest. When our farmers come
to the conclusion that care and indus
try are the only sure roads to success,
then sheep raising will become one of
the safest and pleasantest branches of in
dustry. Some imagine that there are
but few locations suitable for this bust
ness. Mr.. V. p. Richmond, of Free
port, H., gives us the location where
to successfully raise sheep.
Where to raise sheep? On every
farm-some more orless-according to
the disposition of the owner, and the
location of the farm, and all advantages
and disadvantages considered. Every
farmer should not make wool growing
an entire business for the farm, but as
useful adjunct to all other branches.
Where an Englishman wants to
raise great crop of wheat, he
sows turnips and feeds them off
the ground to sheep by means of nova
BILE fences. The turnips loosen the
soil, and the sheep enrich it. | find a
heavy crop of manure from the sheep
stable will grow heavy wheat and a
strong straw, while manure from the
horse and cow stables grow heavy,
weak straw, and no great improvement
in the wheat. Sheep manure is good for
all crops and and always ready for use.
They are cleaners. A stubble field
will soon be cleaned of all the grain
left on the ground, and the field left in
q better condition for the pillow. They
are weed exterminators. If you have
a weedy lot, it is only necessary to put
the sheep in for few days, and if they
do not eat all the weeds they will the
seeds, and so trample them that few
will grow. Where fields of corn are
strong, they will do more good than
harm in a corn-feld, eating weeds,
lower leaves, and an occasional ear of
corn. Not like other stock in a corn
field, if they get an ear of corn down
they eat it, and do not waste. Then
sheep are necessity on every we'll
regulated farm as a helper in the cult
walton of the farm. But it is not nee
essary, nor is it best, that every farm
er should go largely into the bust
ness.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1878-12-14

The busy season with the farmer is
approaching its close, when there will
be more leisure, which will favor what
is so requisite at this time-attention to
the stock. We shelter our mich cows
in storm-not all of us-but we for
get that the warm, sunny days have
cool, damp nights; the nights longer
than the day, and that these daily
changes of temperature are hurtful as
well as the dampness of the nights. 1t
should be made rule, rigidly adhered
to, to shelter stock during the night at
such time, beginning early and con-
tinuing without a single omission, for
no one knows what the weather may
be before morning. Comfortably
housed, with sufficient ventilation, clean
Uttered floors and good feed, there will
be uniform increase of milk over what
is realized from out door exposure,
showing considerable difference in the
amount and quality of milk realized
and the benefit to the COWS, making
thus the transition to winter quarters
an advantage as compared with the
condition of the Nnhoused stock. There
Is HO ldCk Oh sweet NUTRITIOUS IOOu dD-
propriate to the time, such as rowen,
corn fodder, pumpkins, ETC., which are
far preferable to the frost-bitten grass.
Colts and calves require the same treat
ment, if their growth is to continue I'M
interrupted-the only way to get full
size and development. Certainly we
have the time now to do this, and who
will say that it is not one of the most
paying expenses of labor? Besides, the
dairyman who feeds and houses well
his cows gets the immediate benefit
from his fodder, while the grass, hurt
in its quality, serves as plant-food and
protection to the fields. 1t is wisdom
to make the autumn butter harvest as
good as possible, and outdoor feed and
exposure are the farthest from doing
this. The weather is cool and the feed
plenty, and now is the time to make
butter, and it may be well extended in
to winter without harm to the animals;
this can be done with well regulated,
generous diet and care of the cows.
With the increase of the flow and quail
ity of milk-the highest degree of rich
ness is now attainable-it will pay to
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1878-12-14

give increased attention to the hand
ling of the milk and cream, so as to
secure, as may be done, tirst-class ar
ticle of butter, with, of course, CORE
spending price. 1t is only necessary to
keep the air of the room pure and the
temperature equal. This requires a
separate apartment from the one oc-
cupied by the family, and the use of a
stove, which is to be attended to-a
coal stove with good draft being best
Then, if cleanliness in the stables and
with the milking vessels is observed,
the greatest comparative profit can be
realized, as the price of butter, espe-
cially fresh, well-made article, is adj
vanced. Country Gentleman.

Aggregate number of assertions from the

Notwithstanding the improvement apparent
from this statement, the fact remains that the
crime of desertion is still alarmingly preva-
lent, and an evil of no ordinary magnitude.
The increase of our force in the vicinity of
the Rio Grande, and the vigorous policy which
for some time has been pursued in dealing
with marauders invading our soil from Mexi-
co, have produced the result predicted in my
report of one year ago. Although the people
of Texas have not been exempt from these in
cursions during the year, and several of them
nave been attended by heartrending atrocities,
yet they have been fewer in number than dur
ing any year for a long period, and within the
past four months almost perfect quiet has
prevailed. A considerable Mexican force has
been sent to the vicinity of the border to OPP
crate against the bands of Indians infesting
that region, and the avowed purpose of the
Mexican Government is to put a stop to raids
upon our people and territory.
