the third-term idea is about to re-
ceive its quietus, and that the man
on horseback with q cigar in his

mount in favor of some friend Of the
"unwritten lay" Blaine's air castle
is also crumbling, and Sherman
stock is at . discount, although the
Warmoth delegates (Sherman men)
have been admitted to seats in the
convention. Edmunds and Wash
burne seem ODE gaining favor. The

strength Of the third-term faction
is about as follows; Grant, 31S;
anti-Grant, 40S. And the 'santi's'

MUTTON SHEEP.

There is a phase of sheep rails
in" which does not require large
outlay and costly preparation ia
conduct, while it will prove more
profitable Oh the amount of capital
invested md care rquired, than the
large focks kept mainly for their
wool, is within the reach of every
farmer, and should be part of his
farming. This is small tiocks of
mutton sheep, within ten or fifteen
miles of large towns. Good mutton
sells higher than beef in all the
butcher shops, and the cause is q
scarcity of mutton sheep. The sup
ply for the home market is OF very
inferior quality, and even this is
held at Il luxury price. Here is a
market at the very door of farmers
where ail they can raise Of GOOD
quality mutton sheep and lambs,
can be readily disposed OF ut tin
top prices, and without the inter
vention o. middle men, OF anv trans
portation charges to cut down the
profits. Every farmer could pur-
chase and take care of twenty to
fifty head of mutton sheep, which
each year would bring him - very
nice little return. OF course they
conld not be kept running out at
the mercy of dogs--they must be
kept in IL pasture and Carefully
housed at night, particularly in re-
gions where there are dogs likely
to interfere with them. But really
after all, according to this writer
the chronic terror of dogs depre-
dating on sheep is more of a bura-
boo than anything else, if farmer
gives proper attention to his flock.
Of course if he neglects it and al |
lows the sheep to ramble at will he
will lose them. If every farmer
kept flock of sheep, sheep-killms
dogs would not be so plenty. al
pup raised on farm with sheep is
not apt TO be sheep thief unless |
he is OF the lowest type of the sneak
ing cur.
But the profit in flock of ewes
numbering % to 100 head of NUT
ton sheep is sufficient inducement
tor every farmer to bestow the
requisite care to keep such q flock
N the best condition. He would
soon find that nothing else on the
arm brought him half the profit on
he investment, and the present is

the South, they find nothing new.
Many old stories are revived, by
Jealous witnesses, few of whom ven-
tursd to say that any considerable
violence or outrage had been exhib-
tied toward the colored people of
the South within the past few years,
and still fewer of those who testi-
fed on this subject testified to any
thing happening within their knowl-
edge. Their evidence, with few cx-
ceptions, was all hearsay.
III conclusion, the committee ex-
presses the positive opinion that
the condition of the colured people
OF the South is not only as good as
could reasonably have been ex-
pected, but IS better than if large
communities had been transferred
TO ii colder and more inhospitable
climate, thus thrusting them into
competition with Il different system
of labor; and while gradual migra-
ton night benefit the individual
black man and his family, as it does
those OF the whites, the committee
regard this wholesale attempt to
transfer people without intelli-
gehce from the homes of their ma
tiVity rs injurious to the people and
labor system of the States where
they so, and more than all injurious
to the last degree TO the black peo-
pie themselves. That there is much
III their condition in the South. the
committee say, to be deplored, no
one will deny; that their condition
Is gradually improving in every re-
spect is really true. Clashings, the
committee say, between the two
races, is neither to be denied nor
wondered at. but when we come to
consider the method in which these
people were freed, as the result of
bitter and desolating civil war, and
that, for purposes OF party politics,
these incompetent, ignorant, land
less, homeless people, without any
qualification Of citizenship, without
any of the ties of property or the
obligations of education, were sud-
denly thrown into political power,
and the effort was made not only
to place them upon an equality |
with their late masters, but to abso-
lutely place them in front and hold |
them there by Legislation, by mill
tary force, ant by every other means
that could possibly be resorted to-
when we consider these things, no |
philosophical mind can behold their
present condition, and the compara-
tive state of peace aud amity exist
ng between the two races, without
that their condition is

1t will be 21 years on the 1st day of
next October since Darwin's work on the
"Origin of Species" startled the world,
and excited an intensity of opposition, as
we'll as an activity of inquiry, which may
be called phenomenal. The war over
the new doctrines were bitter indeed,
but during the last dec ,desthe treatment
of Darwin and his disciples has been, at
least, respectful. In lecture anticl-
patory of "the coming of age of the
origin of Species" delivered by Prof.
Huxley in the Royal Institution, the
fear is expressed that at the present day
there is danger of the new generation
of students accepting the main doc
trines of Mr.. Darwin's book" with as lit
tie reflection, and it may be with as
little justification, as so many of our con-
tempories 20 years ago rejected them"
The Professor reminded his listeners
that the essence of the scientific spirit is
criticism. 1t IS, indeed, to forgetful-
ness of this fact, or even to a resolute
physical suppression of it, that so many
so-called scientific organizations have
name to live, but are dead. No doctrine
in science should receive assent unless,
after the most rigid and searching ex-
animation of its truth, its acceptance is
inevitable. "Mere insanities and inAni-
ties have before now swollen to porten-
tous size in the course OF 20 years"

Success to such u Man,

Mr.. G. N. Crttenden, of the Central
Medicine Warehouse so long located at 7
Sixth avenue. New York, has removed his
immense business to 115 Fulton street, of
that city. Mr.. Crittenden's phenomenal
success is noted as among the most remarka-
BILE instances of the reward that is sure to
crown energy, industry, ability and sheer
pluck which the history of metropolitan
business men presents. He started eighteen
years ago on capital of forty-two dollars,
and is to-day one of the first, if not the
very first in his line in this country. Be
sides possessing all the qualities which we
have enumerated, he was from the first one
OF the most courteous and genial of bust
ness men. Everybody knows him as
Charley Crittenden, now that lie counts his
wealth by the hundreds of thousands OF
dollars, just as in the old days when he
started in the little eight-by-ten tenement
and it will be just the same when he fig
ures high in the millions. All honor and
success to such men. Hard, honest labor
has been, as it is at this hour the great
secret of his high promotion in business
and moral life. Indeed, his motto, the
imprint of which is borne upon all his val
liable Proprietary Medicines, such as
Glenn's Sulphur Soap. the famous remedy
and beautifer; Hale's Honey Of Horehound
and Tar, the panacea for coughs, colds,
etc; Pixies Toothache Drops, the one
minute cure; Hills Hair and Whisker D G.,
ETC., ETC.. is " Nothing without labor"
| Verify labor has brought its reward to him Z;
and his legion of friends, hoping that he
may long enjoy the fruits of his honest,
honorable and enviable career, wish him
God-speed in his brilliant strides onward
and upward - ~
