rRoGsEsshvE AGRECULTURE

Hon. f. E. Beltzhoover, member OF
Congress, of Carlisle, aud brother Of
Mr.. Geo. M. Beltzbooyer of this town,
delivered an address at the recent Gran
gers picnic, at Williams Grove, Pa, in
which he drew an eloquent picture of
what tanners should be, and from which
address we extract the following:
The farmer should be taught to know
that he is dealing with problems which
require ard reward the amplest knowl
edge of natures laws, the fullest COM
mand of science, the noblest efforts Of
the human intellect. We need to mingle
more thought with our work. Some
think till their heads ache; others work
till their backs ore crooked; but the
worker and thinker are ever kept dis
,inct; they should be the same. In an
age when every laborers son may be
fairly educated # he will, there should
be more fruit gathered from the tree of
knowledge 10 justify the magnificent
promise of its foliage and its bloom.
There is no success in the intellectual,
social, moral or political world but by
agitation. Tie more good agricultural
societies there are are-the more gran
ges-the more agricultural schools-the
more agriculture. newspapers-the more
talk aud work iu the direct line OF agrl-
cultural knowledge, the sooner Will
come the day when the art and science
Of tilling the earth, which is the natural
God-given pursuit of the masses of hui
mainly, will be broush ut up again to the
level 1t held when the active 'tiller OF
the garden was the lord of the earth.
All these means should be cherished
and used and exercised, because they
are the only ones by which the agricul-
turist can work. Against them are ar
rayed the same agents OF destruction
which have made the masses hewers OF
wood and drawers of water, servants
and bondsmen, peasants and serts in The
past. Ignorance is always against pro-
,rTpSS

nD~ AT the U. S. Court, Clarksburg,
Judge J. J. Jackson, presiding, the
Grand jury, after session OF ten days,
and which was discharged on Friday
evening OF last week, made 70 present
ments, for illicit distilling of whiskey,
selling whiskey without license, making
counterfeit money, tampering with let
tiers in the U. S. Mails, selling tobacco
without license, and robbing Post Off
ces. TIE Court will remain in session
until the first of November, when it will
convene at Charleston. Judge Jackson
presided with his usual dignity and abil-
ity, and Gen. Golf, the Prosecuting At
tolney, prosecuted the business in his
usual efficient and able manner, and the
Clerk, Mr.. Jasper Moore, was quite
busy attending to the responsible duties
of his office.
Major Patton, the u. S. District Dep
uty Marshal, was also present, attend
ing TO his official duties, and which, by
the way, is the most important position
of all, from the fact that he "holds the
stakes" The Major is one of the most
genial and clever gentlemen we have
ever met with, and becomes exceeding
" popular with all whom he meets. He
attends, in person, all the Courts, and
discharges the duty Of paying off with
promptness and accuracy. lie is ma
tive Of Lewisburg, Pa, and a lawyer by
profession, and his father an editor Of q
prominent newspaper for upwards of
forty years. The Major is the fright
man in the right place" and we venture
the assertion that more efficient and
obleing officer could not have been
procured anywhere, and the Govern
ment should congratulate itself in hay-
ing such an intelligent, competent and
accommodating gentleman in that re-
sponsible position.
Major A. c. Moore, the Foreman Of
the Grand Jury, is native of Clarks-
burg, popular and exceedingly clever
gentleman, and an eminent lawyer by
profession. He discharged the duties
as Foreman with great deal of skill
and ability. At the close Of the bust
ness, the Jury rendered him resolu-
ton of thanks, by rising vote, for the
able and pleasant manner in which he
discharged his duties.
