GIVING THEM BLUFF.

A soggy big fellow with a voice
as big as a mothers love, attended
by a pop un sort of young man,
appeared in a Michigan Avenue
saloon yesterday, aud soon started
a small! riot. The big one refused
to pay for what he drank, and
there was talk Of bounchiny him,
when the little fellow took the bar
keeper aside and explained !:
You see, my big friend here is
only giving you bluff. He is got
two or three OF the wors: teeth in
his head you ever saw, and they've
ached night and day for six weeks.
The dentist won't pull them short
Of So, and that's too mnch. My
FRIEND is therefore going aro.nd in
hopes to get up a fight and have
somebody hit him on the Jaw and
knock these teeth out and save him
50.
The bartender saw the point and
was satisfied, and allowed the big
man to 60 out without settling.
The same was worked in another
place, and tben the pai, entered Il
Gig store. Here The big fellow
wanted to chew everything up, and
he could hardly keep still while the
little one explained the toothache
business to the cigar man.
IT hit him in the jaw he max os
s. by the operation, does he? asked
the dealer.
Yes. and then he'll demand
damages Of you besides. That's bis
game, you see.'
Yes, I sce,' slowly replied the
dealer, hut there's nothing stingy
about nc. I'd as soon save him 50
as not, and if I DANA ge his jaw
I'm willing to pay what he asks.
Look ont, now-Tm going for him!
The big fellow was knocked down
il one time, and the little one didn't
stay to see any more. When the
late deceased came to his senses
bn was lvirr on his hoc(, in 1h q
slush of the gutter, and three Or
four bootblacks were asking him if
his toothache was 'al!e gone
I am the tarantula of The West!
began the big man os he got up,
but after feeling his jaw be started
of mutteriAg, 'bat I'll save my
breath till L get hold Of the infant
who put me up to this and then
skipped!

TABLE HAMMERS.

Among the most trustworthy
tests of good home training is plac
ed that of the table manners and
no individual can hope to acquire
and keep them who knows any diff
ference in them when in the privacy
Of the family circle than when in
company. lhe. properly trained
youth does not annoy those next
to whom he sits by fidgeting in his
chair, moving his feet, playing with
his bread, or with any of the table
equipage Neither does he chew
bis food with his mouth open, talk
with it in his mouth, Or make any
of those noises in eating which are
the characteristics of vulgarity .
His food is net conveyed in too
large or small proportions to his
mouth: he neither HOLDS his head as
erect as il he had swallowed a ram
rod, nor docs he bury his face in his
plate. He handles his knife and
fork properly, and not overland
as a clown would he removes them
from the plate as soon as it is plac~
ed before him, aud he places them
side by side when he has finished,
and not before, as this is the 81 g.
nal which well-drilled butler
observes for removing the plate.
He does not leave his coffee spoon
or tea spoon in his cup. He avoids
using his handkerchief unncccssari
!y, or disgusting those who are
eating by trumpetlil;e performances
with it. He does not converse in
loud tones, nor indulge in uproar-
Gus laughter. If he breaks an ar
tic'e he is not proluse in his apol-
ogics. bnt shows his regret in his
face aud in his manner rather than
in words. Some writer has said:

FACTSFOR THE FARMERS.
RAISE WHAT rs WANTED.

The tact to raise just what
the purchaser wants to buy is
to be the mark of the success
ful farmer of the future. To-
bacco, cotton, corn, bacon,
buttcr and So fourth, Of certain
characters, equalilies ana con-
ditions that the purchaser
wants. OF course the first
thing for the producer to do is,
to find by inquiry, investiga-
ton or otherwise, just what
kind Of a thing is wanted, and
then go to work to make that
particular grade of article. In
this way he works intelligent
ly; he knows beforehand what
his market calls for. and he
wastes no resources and incnrs
no extra expense in producing
something different, but pros
ceeds in the most direct and
economical way to grow or
manufacture an article that
will pay him better than any
thing that could be produced
without definite aim. This
is progressive farming; there
is standard it produces what
people want; and it varies to
suit varying tastes and clrcum-
stances. 1t throws the wheels
out Of the I Id ruts, sometimes,
but it removes many an ohsta-
Gle from them. ald makes far
ming a science 10 be studied,
instead Of a hap-hazard VEN
ture, as it 100 often is now.
Why is it that onc man's cot
ton or bacon, butter, will
sell at fair figures, when "n-
others will hardly be taken at
any price. Simply because
the first has an article OF the
quality or kiud that is desired.
and the latter has not. 1t is
the merchaut ia ble condition,
the desirable qualities, that
makes an article sell well.
1t is highly important then,
to study your market closely
Find out what is wanted, and
then go home and make it
Ask your merchant it this is
not so. and then ask him to
tell you what sort of an article
sells b"st. aud how it is to b"
prepared for market, and with
this information to guide you,
Will find many difficulties re-
moved from your path.-Ru-

TRY A NEW PLAN.

One OF the greatest mistakes
our farmers make is in tryin 9
to farm too much land. They
ought not TO at empt to work
a sing rod more land than
they can work we'll. Lay
that down as rule, and then
work to it, taking into the
calculations all the probabili~
ties of wet or dry weather. 1t
is far easier and certainly
more profitable to raise and
gather sixty bushels OF corn
from one acre Of ground, than
it is to raise ard gather fifty
bushels from two acres Aud
good farming is almost sure
to produce the first result,
while bad or half way farming
will certainly bring about the
other, Another mistake we
are disposed to think they
make, and that is in mannr-
lug lands; if they have but a
small quantity Of manure, they
usually spread it thin, with
the view Of making it go as
far as possible. Suppose you
try a new plan in that matter
also. Commence on one side
Of your field, and manure
heavy as far as it will 60
rext year you can extend it a
little further, and 80 on until
you have enriched the whole
field, and in the mean time,
you have made better crops
and with less work. The old
way Of raising five bales Of
cotton to twenty-five acres Of
land, has exploded, while the
new and better way is to raise
five bales to five acres. Try
it, and see if this is not the
easier and more profitable

a return Of ignorance and crime to
political control in the Scuthern
States. and they mean 10 let the
Southern people influence and i'm
press the negroes in thei- own way,
and require the Federal government
to have and show no more solicitude
for interference with Southern than
with far Western or Eastern States.
The thing experience has proved
and nature and tradition commend
to the people of the United States
is the supremacy Of the white race.
That supremacy alone results in
toIerable government. That race
alone kuows how to govern itself Or
others. The supremacy Of that race
is the result of laws, and constit-
utions will be made ork. and any
maXims or plants to prevent it will!
be ignored, changed or in whatever
necessary way rendered imperative.
Tie presence or operations Of any
other race. black, brown, red or
yellow, in politics will be made
admit or promote that supremacy
Of the superior race, whether in
Massachusetts Or Mississippi, Mich
lyon or South Carolina, or any
where's. American society will not
give way to barbarism, no matter
what its supremacy in numbers.
The wit, the wealth or the force Of
the ruling race will be held to justi-
fy the means by the Judgment Of
history and Of this and every other
gentleman.
We, therefore, advise Democrats
everywhere to care not a whit what
the Republicans allege about the
effect of leaving State elections to
States on negro suffrage. Let them
al]ege what they please. If they
make out the Democracy 10 be the
party that believes in white supre-
macy and in none other, so much
the better. That means civilization :,
common sense and tie vindication
of the order Of Deity and history
among men. 1t is a doctrine on
which, when plainly stated, more
than half of the cant, wearied Rep
ubiicans themselves will unite with
the Democrats, and it is a doctrine
to av0uch and lot to AVOID. The
national will! and wish ended with
the provision of equal laws and
equal rights for all. That done,
the laws Of human nature became
and remain the tcmpering force TO
the laws of Congresses and the
statements of Constitutions That
tempeiing force is not to which the
Democracy is hospita bic and the
charge that it is, q charge to be
proud of, charge to proclaim and
rejoice in, a charge to inspire the
party with the vigor and the vche-
mence Of victory everywhere. .-~

AYERS PILLS have been known for
more than quarter of a century, and
have obtained a worldwide reputation
for their virtues. They correct dis
eascd action in the several aSslmlNi-
tive organs of the body. and arc so
composed that distractions within
their range can rarely withstand or
cvadc them. Not only do they cure
the everyday complaints of every
body, but also formidable and danger
Gus diseases that have bafiicd the best
Of human skill. While they produce
powerful effects, they are, at the same
children. BY their apericnt action
they grippe much less than the common
purgativcs, and never give pain when
the bowels are not intlamed. They
reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing
it from the elements of weakness. G
Adapted to all ages and conditions
in all climates, containing neither
calomcl nor any delcterious drug,
these Pills may be taken with safety
by anybody. Their sugar-coating pre-
serves them ever fresh and makes
them pleasant to take; while being
purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.

Squire brad y's Court,

A large crowd assembled at Squire
Brady's Court last evening, in order to
hear . case against officer Gibbons.
The charge was assault and battery
preferred against the officer by John
Sweeney. The officer had arrest I'd
Sweeney last Sunday night for being
drunk, and was very disorderly also.
At the police hearing Sweeney was
lined $5 and cost. From the evidence
given last evening it appears that Swee-
ney was standing at Maryland avenue
Oh Sunday evening when officers Pay yne
and Gibbons passed. Sweeney spoke
to the officers and said to Gibbons "that
when he arrested him again he hoped
he would have mercy on him." Glib
hons replied "that depends altogether
on YOURSELF" The man va, told to
move on when he informed the police
man he would not and becoming rather
impudent the officers arrested him. On
making the arrest they experienced
considerable difficulty as the man had
Resisted the officers and was very dis.
orderly. Sweeney tried to prove that
he was not drunk, but Squire Brady
thought differently and said "that the
officers were fully justified in making
The arrest" The case was therefore
dismissed

Lynchtng In Maryland.

James Carroll, negro, was arrested
yesterday at noon at Georgetown, D. G.,
charged with feloniously assaultipe
Mrs. Jennie Thomas at Lickville, Fred
erick county, on Monday night during
the absence of her hus band.
Carroll was identified by M. Thomas
who had gon. to Washington in pur,
suit. The prisoner asserted his limo
cence, but was willing to 60 to Frede-
rick for trial and was handed over tc
Maryland officials.
They started with the prisoner, but
when the train reached Washington
Junction, near the Point of Rocks, a
mob Of fifteen or twenty masked horse,
men overpowered the officers, threw a
rope with moose around Carrol's : neck
ard iragg d him about hundred yards
across a ploughed field to tho nearest
tree and strung him up.
The lynchers disappeared as soon as
they ascertained that life was extinct.
The prisoner is reported to have con-
fessed his crime, and said lie had left
Lickville because they hung people
there for such things.
