The Republicans rolled up a round
majority in Wisconsin. Judge Cole being
reelected Associate Justice Of the Su-
preme Court III the late election by &c.
1873 majority. The total vote in tho
State was lGs, 600, Cole receiving over
100000. The result is very oncourag-
ing to Republicans.
That's the way the amiably impartial
news agent of the strictly impartial As
Sociated Press puts II. In cases where
the boot gets Oh the other leg, the same
gentlenianly and impartial news agent
observes, under strong protest, The
Democrats Of kentuck, through an or.
ganizcd system Of fraud and iutimida-
ton, carried that State 10y tritling
majority Of fifty thousand. The victory
over law aud order WAS accomplished
by the importation Of large numbers OF
rebels from Massachusetts aud Rhode
Island. The bulldozing process which
was prIcticrd 20 nh alarming extent in
Republican coupties, kept large pro-
portion Of the loyal element away from
the polls. The Present victory Is a COM
paratively barren one, however. as truth
and Justice must prevail, and all iudIcu-
tions point to "A sweoDinG Republican
success in the State at the next cIec.
ton"

THE OLD CHURCH THAT STOOD
IN THE SHADE.

Long years have flown since first we met
In the old church that stood in the shade;
Gray hairs have come, but we'll nee forget
The good old tunes we sang and played.
We yet hear tie birds that sing each day
When to the glorious GiVer We prayed:
While prayers and songs foated softly away
From the old church that stood in the shade.
No stained windows reflected the light,
Nor was ulpit In velvet arrayed;
Yet every heart was cheerful and bright
In the old church that stood in the shade
But pride one day in glorious bout,
Appeared in gorgeous apparel arrayed,
The world crept in the spirit crept out
From the old church that stood in the shade
They moved it away and cut down the grove
And not bird nor prayer has staid;
Nothing to mark the spot we love,
Where the old church stood in the shade
And we built steeple that touches the sky,
And otherwise made a tremendous parade,
And thus we expected to ascend on high
But not from the church that stood in the shade
We put on mortgage much interest we pay,
While daily we are seeking for aid;
Wed gladly return to the good old way
OF the old church that stood in the shade.
But when God shall come in glory and peace,
TO collect all the debts we have made,
He'll surely grant US full release
Because of the church that stood in the shade

The English Crown Diamonds.

The English crown diamonds are val
ued at IS. 100000. They are in thick
iron chest, and are guarded by senti-
nels day and night. There is a diadem
of eighty-six diamonds of various sizes,
in the middle of which is the celebrated
Kooh-i-noor, alone valued at $4,000;
also collar of los diamonds, in the
center of which is an emerald, said to
be the purest and most beautiful ex-
tant. A second diadem is a blending
of diamonds and Emeralds. In the
center is the large Kaudavassy dia-
mond, valued at 100000. 1t would be
rated at higher sum were it not for a
slight defect. These, and many other
valuables of the kind, belong to the
English crown. A portion are used by
the Princess of Wales on special occa-
sions; the X audavassy was formerly
the eye of a one-eved Hindoo deity,
ard has been but lately added to the
collection.

Raising Colts.

There is a crude notion prevailing
that hardships make young stock hardy
A colt that IS weaned in the fall, as is
commonly the case, should not be al.
lowed to become poor in the first win
ter. 1t is true that it will often improve
so rapidly in the spring that its wretch
ed condition in the winter will seem re-
ally to have been an advantage to it,
but this is grave mistake. If the same
condition were imposed during the
whole period of growth, the effect would
be very perceptible. Although the
summer may in some degree remove
the effect of the winter, no animal so
treated ever became what it might have
been in size, symmetry of form, and
usefulness, by generous treatment.
There is profit in breeding nice carriage
and draft horses. AS a general rule, it
costs no more to raise q good colt than
a poor one, while the former will bring
two or three times as much as the lat
ter. A dark stable is poor place to
keep colt.
