NEWS SUMMARY.
MaahInrton.

D. NJ. Key, the Postmaster-G General, has
written an open letter to the people of the
South, in which he says he believes the ma
iorityin Congress intend to Dust Hayes and
i~naugurate Tilden. He says, among other
things: 1t is, therefore, the duty of the
Southern people to afford q browning evil
dence Of their renewed devotion to the
Union, in which they now enjoy every
right Of citizenship, and are subjected to no
restrictions notlaid upon every citizen, by
sending Representatives to the Forty-sixth
Congress pledged to resist at all hazards
the revolutionary schemes Of the mischief
makers who seem to have gained control of
the House of Representatives of the
Forty-ffth Congress. To this end the
people in every District should
meet publicly, organize, and resolve to sup
port no person for Congress who has given
aid to this movement, and who will not
pledge himself to sustain the title of Presi.
dent Hayes, during the term for which he
was elected, against all attempts at its over
throw. Only in this way can a grave dan
ger to the Republic be averted, and con-
vincing proof be given that the confidence
was not misplaced which President Hayes
manifested in the South when he withdrew
the troops from the State-houses of South
Carolina and Louisiana
Alexander A. Stevens has written a letter
in opposition to the " fraud" investigation,
unless it is made general, including the
several States.

The Story Of a Brigand.

A correspondent in Rome writes: An
other band of brigands has been organ
lied in the vicinity Of Palermo. Its
chief, one Olivia, was a brigadier of car
bineers, originally from the Romagna,
who served in the district of Termini
Imerese, and worked incessantlywithIn-
spector Lucchesi for the capture of the
notorious Condotteirre Leonea His ac-
tivity and sagacity were such that Leone
must have inevitably fallen into his
hands; but unluckily for him and his
claim to the prize money which had been
set on Leone's head, it happened than to
the very day Of Leone's being shot he was
absent on other duty. His comrades
affected much regret at his having missed
his share of the glory and its reward, but
churlishly demurred to his request for
some recognition of his services, much
greater IS these were than other ser
vices which had been handsomely re-
compensed. The unkindest cut of all to
him, was, however, his seeing promoted
to the rank Of Sergeant twocomrades of
his who had contributed Infinitely less
to the hemming in and Staying Of Leone.
He repaired to Palermo and demanded
Justice, but heireceived no satisfaction
On the contrary, he vas treated with dis
courtesy, and even threatened with dis
ciplinary punishment. Stung with re-
sentiment, he deserted his corps and took
to the hills with the resolution of be.
coming a brigand. He was not long in
finding other deserters and outlaws like
minded with himself, and these he
formed into a band which has already
given proof of its marauding efficiency
under his leadership. His knowledge
of the country, acquired in the service
which SO badly requited him, is ever
greater than that of his pursuers, and
the Palermo papers predict hat unless q
stray shot puts an end to him he viii
rival the bold aggressiyeness and the
evasive. dexterity of a Di Pasquale, 8
Capraro, OF a Leone.

The London Times has begun to urge the
establishment of a British protectorate over
Turkey in Asia,
A telegram from st. Petersburg gives the
following programme of the Congress: The
Congress will Immediately, upon meeting at
Berlin, determine the basis of a treaty of
peace, and the regulations concerning its
execution. 1t will organize several local
commissions to define boundaries, ETC., the
commissions being appointed and instructed
by conference Of ambassadors, resident at
Constantinople. 1t is expected the session
of the Congress will be short.

May 81. The disaster occurred in the
British Channel, near Dover. The Grosser
Kurfurst came in collision with the iron
clad Koenig Wilhelm, at nine forty-fve,
three miles off Folkestone. The former
vessel sunk almost Immediately, and her
boilers exploded when she went down. The
weather was bright, and the sea calm at the
time Of the disaster. Boats went from the
shore, and were sent from other vessels OF

the final adjournment of Congress, with an
amendment fixing the date at June II,
instead of June16. Adjourned till Friday.
........ House!The Senate resolution for
adjournment was amended to take place on
the 18th of June and adopted.
MAY 31.-Senate-The debate was opened
upon the question of a%ppropriating five and
ahalf million dollars to satisfy the claim OF
Great Britain on account Of the fisheries re-
ward. Although the award is regarded as
exorbitant, the general sentiment in the
Senate is that it ought to be paid promptly.
Notice was given by Senator Matthews that
on Tuesday next, after the morning hour,
he will call up the Texas Pacific Railroad
Bill, and press it to a final vote, to
the exclusion of all other businessmen.
House.-The Democrats expected that
the Republicans would throw as many OBJ
stacles as possible in the way of the adoption
of the joint resolution appropriating twenty
thousand dollars to defray the expenses of
the Potter Investigation Committee, but the
resolution went through smoothly this after
noon, Messrs. Hale aud Garfield advocating
its adoption. Mr.. Sapp, from the Commit
tee on Public Lands, reported back the
Senate bill for the relief of settlers on the
public lands under the presumption laws, in
rrencet to, computation of time for per.
fecting title and it passed. Mr.. Springer
was appointed on the Investigating Com.
mittee in place of Mr.. Cobb, who resigned.

A Recognition.

At an Oddfelows' hall, London, the
other day, a young man in the medical
student line of life came suddenly face
t. face with a dear, kind old fatherly-
looking gentleman with white hair, of
highly respectable and almost Biblical
appearance.
They both stood transfxed. The same
idea flashed across both of them. "Your
face is familiar to me, very familiar; but
l can't remember where we have met SO
often" However, the friendly impulse
was carried out; they shook hands
warmly, partook of a friendly glass, and
departed, still ignorant of each others
name and occupation.
But the young man was determined to
solve the problem, and he seized on the
waiter, and said to him:
"TelI me, waiter, who is that distin-
guished stranger, with the white hair
all about himT'
And the waiter whispered lowly:
"Please, sir, that's the pawnbroker."

cup of butter; one and one-half cup of
sifted -four. Put in a saucepan over
the fire; beat until very smooth and
thoroughly scalded; set aside and when
sufficiently cool add five well-beaten
eggs. Drop this mixture, the size of a
silver dollar, on buttered pans leaving a
space of three inches each way. Bake
thirty minutes, in a hot oven, keeping
the oven door closed as much as possible.
When nearly cold, cut a slit three
fourths around the top of the puffs
and fill with cream made as follows:
Boil n pint of milk; add one cup of
sugar; one-half cup of -four and two
beaten eggs worked smooth in a little
milk; boil ten minutes, stirring con-
stantly. Flavor when done.

In the country the mind is soothed
and satisfied; here is no restraint of mo-
ton or of posture. These things, little
and Indifferent as they may seem, are
not so; for the best tempers have need
of ease and liberty to keep them in
right order long enough for the pur-
poses of composition; and many for
ward axiom, many an inhuman thought,
hath arisen from sitting incon7eniently,
from hearing a few unpleasant sounds,
from the confinement of a. gloomy
chamber, or from the want of symmetry
in it. We are not aware of this until
we find an exemption from it in groves,
on promentories, or along the seashore,
or wherever else we meet nature face to
face, u~ndisturbed and solitary.-Landor.
A MEMBER of the Reformed Presby-
terrain Synod in New York, a Pitts
burger, says that the terrible accidents
and fires which visited the PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad Company last year, were in
consequence of running the trains on
Sunday.

At Topeka, Kansas, James Dickson, a
brakeman on the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe Railroad, died from injuries re-
'ceived at the hands of James S.. King,
whose life he had threatened. King kicked
him as he was climbing up a ladder to the
top of the caboose, while the train was in
motion. He fell under the wheels and was
showed aleng, the wheels tearing out his
entrails and causing internal hemorrhage.
The body of Miss Mary P~ettegrew, a much
esteemed young lady of sixteen years, was
found floating in Spearish River, fifteen
miles from Deadwood, DIT. She left home
to go after her pony, and it is supposed she
fell into the river while trying TO -cress-a
bridge formed by driftwood. The Coroner's
jury rendered a verdict of accidental drown
ing.

The South.

A man named Porter was sentenced to
the penitentiary for five years at Eagle Pass,
Texas, and committed suicide that night.
On Saturday morning Judge Pachel, Dis
trict Attorney Sullivan and other officers of
the Court drank water from a vessel in the
Courtroom and were all taken sick, when,
upon inquiry of other prisoners in the Jail,
it was ascertained that Porter had poured a
vial of poison into the water in the Court
room, with intent to poison the whole
Court.

The Emblems of Love.

Roses are admittedly the emblem of
love. An old tradition says that a rose
gathered upon midsummer eve, and
Kept in a clean sheet of paper until
Christmas day, will be fresh enough for
a maiden to wear in her bosom when he
who is to be her husband will come and
take it out. In Thuringia the rose holds
a similar position as a love-charm; a
maid who has several lovers will name
a rose-leaf after each, and then scatter
them upon the water; that which sinks
the last representing her future hus-
band. In some parts of Germany it is
customary to throw rose leaves on a coal
fire, as a means of insuring good luck.
In Germany, as well as in France and
Italy, it is believed that if a drop of
ones blood be buried under a rose-tree
it will insure rosy cheeks.

TOPICS FOR THE FARM.

Corn as FO0d.-There is, perhaps. no
kind of grain that enters so largely into
the bill Of fare of all kinds of domestic
animals, Is does u so-called Indian
corn. When it is desired to fatten rap
idly and cheaply, there is no grain
which will better serve the purpose, when
fed intelligently, than will corn in its
different forms and conditions. With
out corn, those who fatten animals,
fowls, etc., would be at a loss to &C
complish their purpose as speedily or as
we'll, as it is a well-known fact that
scarcely anything (I there is anything)
will produce flesh of any kind of flavor
superior to that produced from feed
ing corn judiciously. While corn is so
valuable as a fattener, as we'll as a most.
excellent winter food in connection with
other foods to enable stock to success
fully Withstand the cold, it is not a good
food to give exclusively to fowls to in
duce them to lay well, for it induces an
undue secretion of fat and fatty matter
on the o~varies, to the evident detriment
of the egg pile. In summer as well as
in winter, it is advisable and even de-
sirable TO give them an occasional mess
of corn in some form, as it acts as a
regulator, but, for feeding laying hens,
the best food is one composed princi-
pa1ly of wheat or wheat screenings, as
has been repeatedly demonstrated by
breeders. {.
Hog Manure.-Make arrangements to
save every particle of manure from the
hog-pens, liquid and solid. It is too
valuable to lose. Every hundred
pounds of such manure-liquid and
| solid mixed-is estimated to equal in
value about one hundred and sixty
pounds of common barn-yard manure
It is good on all crops, and is especially
suited to fruit trees. Nothing is better
to preserve its virtues than swampmuck
or dry earth. Use it freely, covering
the floor of the pen at night and clean
ing out in the morning, after which the
floor should be sprinkled again. 1t is
not only good for the manure but fol
the swine. Generally the hog-pen is the
most offensive spot on the farm during
the fattening season. A little dry earth
judiciously used every day would dis
pose of all unpleasant odors.
Hoof Rot in Cattle.The remedy
usually adopted is to put a rope between
the hoofs and saw it back and forth TN
til the putrid matter is wholly removed
and the blood starts pretty freely. Thi
is a cruel and inhuman practice.
would Just as soon advise a man to pu
a rope between his toes and saw it bacl
and forth until the blood starts, to cur,
corns. The bestremedy is to thorough,
cleanse the affected parts with warn
water and soap, and then apply warm ia
between the hoofs. In very bad case
there will be a large core come out-re
move it carefully with the thumb an,
finger; cleanse the cavity as above wit
soap and water and then 6llit with warn
tar. Keep the animal in a clean DIR
pasture. 1t is no more liable to afec
the whole system than any other ulcer
When once cured there is danger of it
appearing again except for the sam
cause.
