has not ordered report 10 be made. Tie re-
port will undoubtedly caim TINT the following
points hayo been established:
1hut tllo Electoral votes OF the states OF
Louisiana and Florida belonged to sumuel J.
TIldon. whilst they were wrongfully counted for
Rutherford D. Hayes.
That thls result was brought about by fraud
ulent action Of the Returning Boartl.
That, unler the pretenso Of fairness ind
desire to witness falr count OF the votes
actualiy cast, thu statcsmcn who visited these
stntes at tho request Of President Grant
stood by while false protests were matlc and
false atlidavits without number manufactured,
In order to give the Returning Board a pretext
ct excuse for rejecting sufficient nutubor Of
votes to give tle Suites Of Florida md Louisiana
to lIayes.
That, aside from the testimony Of red-headcd
Jim Anacrson, circumstances point to Secretary

WASHINGTON, b. G., Feb. Ex-senator Conk-
ling, In executive session Yesterday, began an
uncalled for attack on Senator Burnside, who
was on his foet in regard to Rhode island NOM
inntIon. Conk1LnK roso and charged Burnside
With trickcry in committee. The latter waa
much surprised, but contented himset with sny-
Ing thut the abatement was not correct. Conk-
ling then repeated his assertions, and appealed
to Senators to sustain bim. At this 8peucer
jumped up and declared that Conkling Was
stating the truth. Burnside at length found It
necessary 10 use very decided lsuguago to pro.
tcct himself, und at Inst declared emphatfcol1y
that Conkl!ng was lying. Senator Hoar, In tho
Chair, attempted to stop him, raped to order,
DIRECTED: HIN 10 BIT DOWN,
but Burnside. feeling himself iusultcd, took oc-
casiun to exprcss fcrvent wtsh that ho had the
tongue Of Blaine, tn order that he might mako
fitting reply to the Senator from New York.
This al!nsion to tho famous personal attack Of
DInino on Conk'ing In tho House In 1669 was a
keen thrust from Burnside, who went on
further to docnrc to the Senate, that, In h!a cx-
pcrienec, ho ind never known 80 much dupltcIty'
and falsehood crowded Into any ease as had been
injected into this ono by MIR. Conklng. The
latter was tnkon considerably aback ut last by

the use of Underground bones-bones
dissolved in sulphuric acid. The value
OF all fertilizers is in proportion to their
selubility, The heat of the atmosphere
and the moisture will dissolve the raw
bone Ia time for o crop. IF there Is
shittysseren per cent. Of phosphoric acid
In ono hundred pounds of bones in sol-
ub!e condition, one hundred pounds of
bones on an acre, regularly distributed,
would be more than enough TO wake
twenty-five bushels Of wheat. If six
hundred pounIse peg acre were lised, and
only twenty five bushels of wheat wero
made, the residue of the phosphoric acid
In the soil would be SO much dead cap
ital.
Some of our farmers uge one hundred
and fifty pounds of ground bones, one
hundred pounds of Peruvian guano, one
bushel Of plaster and one bushel of salt
per acre, drilled in with the wheat. A
first-rate application to poor lend.
Some of our farmers use one hundred
and fifty pounds of SlinglufF's dissolved
bones, bushel OF plaster aud bushei
Of salt TO an acre, drilled in with the
wheat. Mr.. Geo. w. Harris, near Ha-
gerstown, raised this year one thousand
bushels Of wheat tin thirty acres of land,
He uEed l6z pounds Of 6iingluff's dis.
solved bone TO the acre.
Our farmers, this year, who used phos.
phatos, made good crops Of wheat. Those
who used no phosphates made none.
When DR.. Higgins, our STATE chemist,
said, twenty-five years ago, that our land
was in need OF phosphates, many of our
farmers wondered whethcr he knew any
thing about it. Now all our farmers
think we ought to use phosphates, and
phosphates aregenerally used. Whether
It would be better to use unmixed raw
bone, or bone dissolved in sulpiiuric acid,
dried and ground over; or bones, raw or
dissolved, mixed with Peruvian guano;
are problems TO be solved by our agricul-
tu,al people. One thing is certain: our
English cousins found out fifty years ago
that If they wanted TO double their crops
Of wheat and turnips they must uso bones
