Especial Telegram to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2l.-The transactions of
Congressman Voorhis, of New Jersey, are
much commented upon in Congress and after
the holidays an effort will probably be made in
tho House to have him investigated with view
to his expulsion should the charges against
him be found to be true. The opinion is gen.
eral that if Voorhis has actually been guilty of
forgery and embezzlemrnt he ought not to be
permitted to continue in his seat in the House
Of Representatives. One OF the charges against
him is that a note for $1,000, drawn against
the Hackensaok Water Works company, of
which he was president, and dated October 9,
1879, purporting to be signed by Jacob G..
Westervelt and endorsed by Mr.. Voorhis him.
self, is forged. Voorhis undertakes to make
no explanation of his conduct.
TRANSFERRED.
By direction of the Secretary of War, Captain
B. D. Greene is relieved from duty under the
immediate orders of Captain Alexander Nc
Kenzie, corps of engineers, and will report to
Major Godfrey Weitzel, corps of engineers,
Detroit, for temporary duty.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 2l.-If thoroughly
trustworthy men are to be credited, Gen.
Grants future, far as the Republican party
is concerned, has been settled during the past
forty-eight hours. Secretary Sherman's fatal
blunder in not forming a defensive alliance
with Blaine against Cameron, whether from
family considerations or because of utter help
lessness, seems to have caused him, according
to the best information, to say farewell to his
Presidential aspirations. Helhas lost his iden-
tity in Just the same degree that Blaine has
lost his Importance. The visit of Secretary
Sherman and EVarts now appears to have had
much real significance. During the presence
Of Senator Cameron in the city Friday, a pre-
liminary conference was held, at which all
minor details of the Chicago convention were
arranged. Another meeting was subsequently
held at the Continental hotel; to which the
Hayes branch of the Republican party was adj
mitted. Before it's conclusion perfect harmony
is said to have been reached The result of all
the caucusing has been agreement that
Grant shall be the candidate for the first place

A wasteful interest PAID by Farmers

There is no disputing the fact that any
farm implement, be it wagon, pillow, har-
row, reaper, rake, or what not, if left ex-
posed to rain and sun for ten years, will
be practically good for nothing. We
might say in five years but if any Oh choose
to cavil at five, we will say. ten. This is
ten per cent per annaem ? At cost of
less than one per cent. these tools can be
kept always housed, or under cover of
some kind, even if but rough boards, that
will shut out the sun and rain. Because
we do not see the silent slow, but steady,
waste, we are apt to forget that it is ever
going on. 1t is unnecessary to suggest
the application" of this short sermon.
Nine per cent interest 8aved is not to be
despised, even if better times are at hand.

would be well in all such cases to consult
the Notes, not only of the current
month, but for one or two earlier num-
bers. AS to Celery-nothing is easier
than to keep it for the winter Heat and
hard freezing are to be avoided either
will cause decay. Dig a trench in place
where water will drain off, foot wide,
and deep enough to take in the whole
length Of the celery. When there is dan
ger of freezing weather-moderate frosts
do not hurt it-take up the celery and
set it up in the trench, putting in the
plants as close as they viii stand, with no
earth between, and put on a light cover
ing of straw or leaves. AS the cold in
creases, add more covering, and when
winter has fairly set in, increase the COW
ering to about foot; and put over
boards lengthwise, to shed rain. Celery
thus stored may be got at when wanted
and if water does not get into the trenches
will keep well until the spring months
If one has a cool cellar, celery may be
kept in that. Take any old boards and
knock together long narrow boxes 9
inches or so wide, and of height little
less than that of the plants, andas long as
may be convenient; place these boxes
in the cellar and put an inch or two of
soil in the bottom of each set the celery
in them the same as in the trenches, and
if to stand side by side, do not put them
nearer than 9 inches The object is to
avoid solid mass of celery, which will
heat and decay. If the cellar has an
earth bottom, the boxes may be replaced
by board trenches, the boards held up by
stakes driven in the cellar bottom, and a
passage-way between them. Keepas cool
as possible without freezing.-Amer7can
