THE MExICAN SOLDIERS.

The spiteful littleness of radicalism is
making its usual exhibition In Congress by
trying to defeat the pending bill for the pay
ment of Mexican veterans, simply because
the bill does not exclude those who were from
the South. The real purpose of the oppo-
sition is to defeat the bill. The reason given
is mere subterfuge. 1t is very striking
illustration of the narrow meanness
of the faction in control of the
government. This faction is hypocrisy con-
densed, a kind of mixture of vinegar and
blue vitriol, hating everything unless within
the narrow horizon of their vision.
Here is q bill of undoubted merit, bill
to which no one ought to have any objec-
ton, recognizing the great services of the
surviving soldiers of the Mexican war. 1t is
too late to discuss the history, either the
causes or results of that war
these have nothing to do
with the debt due to the
have men who fought its battles. If the
whole of Mexico had been demanded in sat
isfaction of it's cost in life and suffering and
money, the Americanizing and civilizing of
Mexicans would only have been anticipated
by few years. Considering the effect of
the settlement and development of Califor-
MIA, with its mines and wealth of every de-
scription, upon the commerce of the world,
what would have been our present condition
had not these new elements been introduced
into the progress of the United States? But
we suppose there must be no exceptions to the
rule that republics are ungrateful. :

OPINION.
The court below finds that at the time of the
execution and delivery of the chattel mortgage
involved in this action. it was stipulated by
and between the mortgagor and the mortgage,
that the mortgagor should retain possession OF
the mortgaged property, that he should con-
tinue and carry on the retail drug business,
with the stock Of drugs, &C., (being the prop
should sell and dispose of the same in the usual
course Of business. and as his own. This slip.
ulation made the mortgage fraudulent and

Horton vs.. Williams, q Minnesota, 1877. Az
is further remarked in that case, the
character of the instrument as regards the
rights of the mortgagors' creditors depends or
the intent with which it was made" From
this it follows that it was not in the
power of the mortgage or his assigns to re
move the original faint Of the mortgage and
make it good by taking SO much of the mort
gagged property as has not been sold by the
mortgagor into possession, under and by virtue
Of the mortgage.

AN APPEAL FOR AID.

The Destitute Condition of the Burned Out
People of the Hot Springs--Why They
Must Depend ON Charity.
HoT SPRINGS, March 1.-THE liberal dona-
ton Of FIVE hundred dollars from the Chicago
board of trade, has swelled the cash contribu-
tions for the relief Of the sufferers by the cur
rent conaagration here to something over two
thousand dollars. Much has already been done
in the way of providing for the most pressing
needs, but q generous public should be inform
ed that much still remains to be done, and that
their efforts and contributions should not cease.
The case here has unusual features of private
hardship. The distress is far more general and
severe than usually attends such disasters.
The victims, with few exceptions, have lost
their ALL and have absolutely nothing with
which to begin anew. Here, too, are hundreds
of infirm or crippled, who were living by char
ity while seeking restoration of health in this
pool of Bethesda, and now those who were their
dependence are themselves equally destitute.
1t is also indispensable to send hence to other
fields of efforts. Hundreds of laboring poor,
whose opportunities for employment vanished
in the flames which engulfed fve-sixths of the
business establishments of the city. Many
others there are who were engaged in prosper
GUS trade one week ago, but have now lost their
entire possessions, including their homes,
places Of business and stocks of merchandise.
Few had any insurance. which was difficult to
procure upon the exceptionally risky structures
that have,now been swept away. They cannot
build again because the titles to their building
sites have been judicially decided to be in the
government, and they have no land to mortgage
for means with which to rebuild. The federal
commissioners have also very properly decided
not to permit the construction of shanties or
other frail and temporary structures. Indeed,
it is not probable that any rebuilding will be
permitted until the proposed new street lines
shall have been defined and established. Thus
it appears that many families are reduced from
comparative afauence to absolute want, with no
reasonable prospect of improvement. They
are equally unable to earn support here, and
helpless to get away, except as Christian chari-
ty shall provide the means, and these should be
generously forthcoming. The distribution of
relief Is in the hands of a competent commit
tee, SO the public may be assured that all con-
tributions will be faithfully and judiciously
applied.

The Farmer and the Tariff

The following brief extract from the
snaecb Of Hon. Fernando Wood, dellv-
cred in Congress on the 9Th, gives a very
plajn relation Of the burdens imposed
upon the farmers by the present tariff
laws Of the United States. Mr. Wood
says: "a
1.-The farmer whose whole mind Is
bent on his agricultural pursuits, has
neither the time nor opportunity to IN
vestigate the influence of the tariff tax
OF his household expenses; 1t Is tact,
however, that every article he uses Is
either directly subject to a tariff tax or
enhanced by the tariff Let US enumer
ate these burdens:
The farmers house in the West where
lumber is scarce, pays either direct or
enhanced tax of 20 per cent. on the lum'
her his house is built Of; a tax OF 80 per
cent. on the paint it is painted with; OF
90 per cent. on his window glass; OF 80
per cent. on the nails; Of % per cent. on
the screws: Of 30 per cent. on the door
locks; of35 to 40 per cent. on the hinges;
of 50 per cent. on the wall paper; OF
from 80 to 70 per cent. on his carpet; OF
40 Der cent. on his crockery; OF % per
cent. on his iron hollow ware; OF % PEI
cent. on his cutlery; 40 per cent. on hli
glassware; Of from 30 per cent. 20 ~ PEI
cent ON the linen he uses in his house
hold: of 81 per cent. on the common
CASTLE soap he uses; As per cent on I'M
starch. When he goes into his stable
barn. or work shop, he will find that ho
paws 80 per cent. on the iron he uses; o.
ner cent. on the halter chains, 10 pc
cent. on the rasps and files he may use
As per cent. on the backsaw; and ~ pc
cent. on cross-cut saw; 80 per cent OF
the hand saw, and 80 per cent. on an
sbeet-iron he may require. On his meu
icinas he pays 20 per cent on the quI
nine pills he swallows, 20 per cent; o.
blue pills 40 per cent, and 40 per cent
on any medical preparations. Inc le
male portion of this house cannot even
90 into hystera without paying a tax 0
30 per cent, on asafetida that may d.
required to quiet their excited nerves
On his sugar, he pays tax OF at leas
60 Der cent As for the clothing he anC
his family uses, let me ennumerate the Ia
separateIy: On his wool hat he pays from
so to so per cent; on his fur hat, from 4
TO so per cent; on his suit of woolel
clothes some 50 per cent; on the Ieathe
for his boots and shoes, 20 per cent; Oh
his hosiery, 30 per cent; on his wife an'
daughters common alpaca dress he pay
50 to 70 per cent; on spoolthread' .
per cent, and on the needles, 80 pc
cent If | were inclined to pursue thes
topics further it would take up too mucI
time, suffice it to say that the furnish
ing of his child's cradle and the cottiI
in which he is finally buried pay a dIrec
tax or are enhanced in price by our TART
system"

Let me urge upon the consideration OF
officers and members of the grange the
full discharge Of every duty enJoIned oy
our laws. If you have sick and distress
ed members, extend to them your care
your generous sympathy, your warm
hearted fraternal love. Ii there he via
ows. look after them, counsel them, as
sist them. and strive to make their lonely
lives as happy as you can. AND now as
YOU are about to commence new oihclal
year. NAV you labor more earnestly than
I'm the past. The prosperity OF our order
is very desirable; it is of the greatest
importance; it adds TO our numerical
strength. our benhcent opportunities,
and our moral influence. BE very care
full who YOU initiate as members OF your
GRANGE. You had better initiate few,
than TO initiate many and some OF them
had ones. 4 gradual and steady IN
crease. not a sudden and spasmodlc one,
is the best. Slow and sure is an antigua
ted maxim, but it is good one. Ii Is
very seldom that we are too cautious IN
admitting members into our body Inc
admission of one or more envloGs and
eyil-minded individuals may prove sen-
ously detrimental, and be the cause OF
much harm. United strength, not merely
great numbers, is sure index OF real
prosperity. Fraternal associations eX-
ercise powerful influence for good.
BY fraternal, we understand cour
teousness. upri ghtness, brotherly kind
ness, being obliging and brotherly, one
seward another. Such conduct inspires
the feelings, elevates the mind, improves
our social standing, and makes us re-
sDected and beloved. Bearing and for
herring with each other. in love, seeking
to do each other good, and being sincere
" interested in each others welfare,
hieblv recommends the principles and
practice of our order, and greatly en-
hanees It's fraternal prosperity. The
consistent practice of the teachings OF the
moral laws Ga duty prescribed in our rlt-
uallis highly commendable, and greatly

cement. To do right to all witd whom

Pruning Vines.

However widely vine dressers may diff
fer in their Summer treatment Of bear
ing grape vines, they agree IN recon-
mending one annual Winter pruning to
insure a crop Of full-sized berry and
bunch. This annual cutting consists in
cutting back the great bulk Of the pre-
vious years growth, leaving only three
or four eyes each on the shoots that pro-
duce the fruit the next season; Temov-
ing. at the same time, all the unrlpened
and superfuous wood. As matter OF
course. the largest and most vigorous
shoots are selected for bearing canes,
and these left not closer than eighteen
inches apart on the main branches. The
time usually chosen for this annual pru-
ming is from the 1st Of January until
the st Of March.
Most gardeners prefer cutting not later
than February, so that the wounds VIII
have time enough to heal before the sap
begins to circulate, and obviate 'bleed-
ing" as it Is technically called by
the fraternity, this bleeding OF
the vines, or cxuding OF the sap
from the ends of the cut shoots, Is not
looked upon by modern intelliget garders

ing vines The operator should always
trim vines with a sharp pruning knife,
making in each instance a clean cut, a
little slanting, and not nearer than two
or three inches from the eye. In case
cuttings are to be made OF the new wood,
then the earlier in the winter the vines
are pruned the better; for the cuttings
should be made. tied in bundles, and
buried on or before the middle OF Jan
uary. These should be cut square on
the lower end and slanting on top, with
an average of three eyes TO each cutting

THE Soil FOR House PLANTs-Io
CURE RANCID LARD.-What kind Of soil
is best for house plants, and what will
prevent the bug or insect from injuring
those plants? | see an inquiry for re
storing rancid lard to its original state.
1t can be restored as follows: Boil the
lard, and while boiling put in two large
onions, cutin two halves; let them re-
main in TIL burned to a crisp; then take
out and your rancid lard will be restored
to its original state, with its sweet fla
vor."
REPLY.-The best soil for house
plants may be prepared as follows: Take
one part OF well rotted COW manure, one
part Of leaf mold, or earth from the
surface Of woodland, and one part OF
good garden soil; mix thoroughly. lake
care no earth worms are left iii the soil.
To prevent insects from injuring the
plants, dip the leaves into hot water, as
warm as the hand can bear, for two OF
three seconds, and repeat two or three
times. The most IL urious insect Is the
green fly. The cure for rancid lard may
be as bad as the rancidity itself There
are many ways of Disgusting the copper
lection, but none of actually restoring

Breeding ewes should not be FED with

Oats and oat straw and chaff are excel
lent feed for bath store sheep and breed
ers, and there is little danger of over
feeding with oats. IN cold localities, a
mixture of two bushels Of oats and one
bushel of corn, can be safely used, but in
