Stains from vegetables or fruit can
usually be extracted, if taken in season,
by drawing the cloth tightly over q
large bowl and pouring boiling water
over the spot: but if left to dry they are
more difficult TO erase. A little soda
rubbed on the spot and just moistened
with water will remove the stain, but
endangers the strength of the cloth. A
mixture of ammonia and spirits of wine
is safer. The spot should soak in it
several hours.
The following is a good way to
clean a carpet which has had hard
usage: First swept clean. then put
three tablespoonfuls of ammonia in a
bucket Of hot water. With a stiff brush
and plenty Of boraN soap scrub a yard
or two of carpet al a time. rinsing it off
with a second bucket of water and am
monia and wping as dry as possible
with a wooden cloth. Proceed in this
way over the entire carpet and when
done open the windows to dry il
quickly.

Ink n iron mold can he removed
from linen by any acid that will dissolve
the red oxide of iron which is found in
ink and iron, but care must be taken
that the acid is not too strong or the
fabric of the goods will be DESTROYED.
Oxalic acid is very good to take out such

THREE YOUNG MEN got into contro-
versy about the right of way. about two
miles south of town ON Saturday last,
and in order to make a complete settle
ment of the difficulty, it became neces-
sary for all parties to alight. The ag-
gressive parties left their horse, which
was attached to light buggy, standing
in the road, and as the horse had prom
ised to be at home in time for oats, he
started at moderate pace down the
road. One of the young men started in
pursuit, and for about five minutes it
was NIP and tuck" and you could have
safely bet your money on either the
young man or the horse. Whenever the
young man stuck out his chin to hook it
over the "tail-gate" of the buggy box
the horse would strike up 2:4O
gait and leave him about rod in the
rear. This state of affairs continued un-
til the buggy upset, which frightened
the horse, causing him to demolish the
vehicle, and start off at terrific rate of
speed, until he entered the village, where
he was secured. Great excitement pre-
vailed on the streets, until it was ascer-
tanned that no one had suffered injury
from the accident. The controversy
was at last amicably settled, and the
parties sought their homes wiser and

THE BoNbons so far have given di-
rection to the Democratic canvass.
They sound the praises of Hancock's be-
havior as commander of the Depart
ment of the Gulf, and seem to expect
that the nations admiration of his
course in that period is their surest de-
pendence for carrying the election. The
defeat of Andrew johnson and the bu-
rial of his policy ought to have been
enough to convince all sensible politi-
clans that there is no use in going to
the country on that issue again; but, if
they want to try it, the Republicans will
be more than satisfied, as it assures
them of victory in every Northern
State. We will admit that, since An
drew johnson is dead, Gen. Hancock is
the best candidate that could have been
selected to submit the merits of john
sons policy to the judgment of the ma
tion again. Hancock was simply one of
Johnson's instruments; if he had not
been inaccord will, ,and willingto execute,
.Johnson's policy, he would not have
been selected as military governor of
that district. In his celebrated Order
No. 40 he follows the language of John
sons letter of instructions almost YER
batim; and his candidacy now ON the
strength of his letter then is simply an
appeal to the nation to reverse the judg-
ment it expressed in the election of
1868. There is nothing practical in the
Democratic canvass. On all the issues
of the day Hancock's election would be
leap in the dark. He, however, finely
represents the grievances of the Demo
cratic party over the action of che gov
ernment during the reconstruction pc
riod. The question that voters are cali
ed upon to decide is whether they will
take the risk of financial disturbance and |
industrial distress from Democratic in
competency in handling the delicate
problems of business and finance yet to
be settled, in order to pour balm upon
the sore remembrances of the Demo-
cratic party BALTIC. American.

COLERAIN.

THE WHEAT is in ShOck-the glOrous
FOurth,is past, and the rain is pouring
down this morning. The Sd was duly
observed at HOgue's School House. The
audience was large and gay as May
morning. The Rev Link was the ora
tor of the day. We were necessarily
absent during the delivery of his speech.
but we heard one sentence that was
worth remembering greatest
slave on earth is the man that bows to
wealth and worships yellow God" The
music was furnished by the Harrisvile
COrnet Band, and was splendidly per-
formed. We observed Msssrs. Hughes,
Hague, Hall and White, OF the st. Clairs-
vile Band, taking toot with them.
They did not spoil the music in the
least. Allow us to recommend the mem
bers composing tiese two bands rs first
class musicians, and gentlemen in the
full sense of the term
THE ENTERTAINMENT in the evening
was highly appreciated by very large
audience. The contest for the book and
cane was highly exciting. The book
was a splendidly bound volume of
MOore's poems; it brought nearly $40,
and was carried off by Miss Katie Beck:
The cane was won by VIM. Oxley, it
bringing nearly SIS. The managers
thought that they might possibly realize
$25, but when all expenses were paid
they found in the treasurer's hands
S1O4-enOugh to buy Sabbath School
Library for the whole township. The
managers return thanks to ALL who as
sisted them on this occasion.
WE called down to Barton's during
the day, and found about 500 people
scattered over hill and dale. They were
enjoying themselves hugely. We made
the acquaintance of Rev. Dix, of Wes-
ley Chapel; also the Rev. Wilding, of
Thompson Chapel. We found with
them Messrs. Lynn, Handlan, Geary,
WOlford, BrysOn, Fuller and Flood.
One of the preachers paid the T. V. R.
quite compliment; he said "it passed
through fine county, and they had the
best coaches that he ever saw" In the
evening. as token of the high manner
in which they appreciated the courtesy
of Judge Barton, in giving them the use
of his grove, they presented him with
very fine cut glass pitcher, and six fine
ton in saying the Judge was taken en-
tirely by surprise, for he anticipated no
for the fayors rendered.
A POSTOFFICE has been established at

ed Maynard. Josephus Scott has COM
pleted a large store room, and will be

THERE was produced on the farm of
Jefferson Brown, about 1000 dozens of

WE regret to learn that Hannah Hall,
to Australia, has been very
sick for the past two months. She is on

A FEW weeks ago we spoke of the
prospect not being good for corn. Wei

better.
THERE is no sale of wool to report.

THE break in the Sny levee IN Illinois
has inundated from $4,000 to 100000
acres of fine land in Illinois, running
all the standing crops, principally corn
and hay, as the wheat had been mostly
harvested. The space of country affect
ed by the break is forty miles long and
from six to fifteen miles wide. The loss
is estimated at from S750,O0O to 81 .0OO,-
900, and thereby hangs tale. The Sny
levee was projected in order to reclaim
large tracts of rich bottom lands not
cultivated simply from their constant IL
ability to inundation. In 1872 the Illi-
nois legislature passed law authori-
zing the issue of levee bonds by the
communities interested in the reclama-
tion of these lands. The bonds were
marketed in Boston, the levee was built,
many thousand acres were raised from
worthlessness to high value, and the
section was the gamer by some millions
of dollars. Having obtained the bene-
fits of the work, the next step was to es-
cape from its expense. The constitu-
of the act authorizing the issue
of the bonds was contested. the levee
was taken possession of by the courts,
and during the litigation was neglected,
so when the water came, it gave way.

GEN. ]. B. WEAVER, the Greenback
candidate for President, has written a
long letter accepting the nomination.
He expresses his qualification at the
honor conferred upon him, and accepts
it as solemn duty" He says that there
are great financial questions yet to be
settled, and that the Republican and
Democratic parties are either silent in
regard to them, or have pronounced in
favor of monOpolies and against the
people. With fifty millions of people
looking them in the face, and pleading
for relief, they utter not one word, of
promise or hope. Their leaders and
platform makers are in the tolls of the
Syndicate, gigantic bank corporations
and railroad monopolies, and have nei-
ther the disposition nor the courage to
strike one generous blow for industrial
emancipation. Mr.. Weaver says that as
the press, the bar, and the pulpit are
mainly under the control of the enemies
of the Greenback party, he proposes, as
the candidate of the party, to go upon
the stump in various parts of the Union |
and enlighten the people upen the ques-
lions of the day.
