REVOLT IN

The powerlessness or the trickery
of the Turkish Government has pro-
duced a serious crisis in Albania.
The districts to be ceded to Montene-
gro having been occupied by the arm
ed members of the Albanian League,
a great meeting of the clans was call
ed at Scutari on April 18th. It was
attended by 1000 leading persons,
including the heads of the Miridites,
the great Catholic clan, as well as of
the Mahommedan septs, and amidst q
scene of passionate excitement, it was
resolved tothrow off the authorityo of the
Sultan, and to constitute Albania either
a wholly independent State, or o State
paying only a small tribute to Con-
stantinople. A Prince will shortly be
elected, and meanwhile two Com
manders-in. Chiefhave been appointed,
one for the Mahommedans and one
for the Christians. The Turkish
troops, or a portion Of them, have
Joined the League, and according to
the latest accounts, a native army Of
10000 men is assembling at Tusi.
The revolt as yet affects a population
of about 800, 0O0, of whom certainly
10000 are fighting men, badly disci-
plined, but unusually brave, and well
armed. Commissariat will be their

Democracy is always impatient Of
taxation should observe that this mo-
ney, like the enormous revenue Of
France, is raised by severe taxation,
imposed by the representatives Of uni
versal suffrage. The truth is, as ap-
parent from all French, German, and
American recent history, and, as WI
believe, from that of Great Britain,
that Democracy is not impatient Of
taxation at all, that it likes q full
Treasury, that it is inclined to spend,
and that it will give whatever its
leaders declare to be essential to the
welfare of the State. 1t looks a
reckless thing to say, but we do not
believe it to be settled that England
would not bear very strong measures
indeed for the reduction of the Debt.

THE DAIRY.

ONE-HALF ounce of salt to the pound
Of butter is the rule Of sailing adopted
by the makers of the celebrated butter
which sells at fancy price in Boston.
In Saxony dairies, milk is kept from
souring by passing thin iron chain
through the milk pans, the end of
which chain are kept constantly in cold
water.
CAN we not, asks the LiUe- Stock
Journal, invent a simple and easily
constructed package for butter, which
may be sealed air-tight and easily
openedP Glass is, probably, the best
material from which to make it, as it is
light and strong, permits no soakage
and imbibes no taints. Such package
can. be encased in wood to protect it.
There must surely be some easy way of
making a self-sealing glass package for
butter, when they are so extensively
and successfully used for fruit. Three
fourths of the bad butter in market is
spoiled after packing.

Better Cows.

The well-rounded voices that are
sounding continually in the farmers
ears to keep better cows" to 81 buy
imported cows" to "grade up with
crosses from well known milking
strains and the like, have caused
many farmer to believe that his dairy
was a very ordinary one, and neglect to
properly feed and care for his dairy has
resulted. The truth is there is more milk
in the average "scrub " dairy than 1t has
been credited with, and if such dqiries
could be cared for and fed with the same
character of foods as the famous dairies
of thoroughbreds which are quoted
as examples of what "blood win do"
the result would be perfectly surprising,
We have in mind dairy that in the
amount of milk produced last season
would he classed very low but this
year this same dairy on the same farm
with better mixers and the addition of
mess of mill feed of one cent value
fed to each COW daily, has added over
one-thigd TO the daily receipts of milk.
The most serious loss and the one in
which most farmers fail in discernment
is to allow COW TO fall OIL in flesh while
in milk and ii will be all the more APP
parent If butter is the desired object,
With better grazing lands, an ad-
dition of milk producing foods, and
care modelled after the owners of
fancy herds, we should hear far less
about inferior dairies" and the SUI
periority of blooded COWS. CieUeland

Death From OyerwOrk.

ITwas saying of Sir George Lewis that
although he had heard of many persons
killed by idleness, he had never met
with a genuine case of death from
overwork. 1t can not be denied that
illnesses attributed to excessive
mental labor are often due to other
causes of less elevated kind-such as
indigestion produced by want of exer-
else, or neglect of simple rules as to diet ;
but, on the other hand, deaths from
overwork are by no means unknown in
the present day among those engaged in
physical labor.
A melancholy case of this description
formed the subject of a recent Coroner's
inquest at Sheffield. The deceased was
striker at some steel works. "Strik-
ing" is an occupation that involves a
great strain on the physical powers of
those engaged in it, and may be de-
scribed in every sense of the term as
hard labor" 1t being necessary to get
out an important order at the works,
the men were told one day last week
that they must work all night. The de-
ceased continued to work accordingly
through the night without cessation (;
nor did he cease from his labors until
past noon on the following day, when
he fell down and died suddenly, his
death, according to the finding of the
jury, being due to exhaustion caused by
overwork.-St. JanaeS'S (LOndon) Ga

I'm the "Lettres Familieres sur
quelques MYSTERIES de la Nature," by
Mr.. T. L. Phipson, published in 1876,
there are many new facts relating to the
sensitiveness or excitability of plants,
which the author shows is by no means
so rare as is generally supposed. The
reason why the sensitive plant has al
ways been regarded as so wonderful is
because its movements upon being
touched have been supposed wholly ex-
ceptional in the vegetable kingdom,
whereas they only show the highest de-
gree of development of phenomenon
whose traces we can follow throughout
the entire vegetable kingdom. The au-
thor of the work mentioned gives many
illustrations in proof of his assertions.
He produced effects analogous to those
of the sensitive plant, not only in more
or less tender plants but in an acacia
five or six years old, known in France
as the Robinis-pseudo-acacia. By Civ
ing the leaflets at the end of a leaf ten
or twenty little quick taps the leaflets
soon begin to fold themselves together,
commencing at the terminal leaflets as
the sensitive plant does. After five min
utes the leaf was completely folded as if
it were night
II would seem that the reason why
the excitability of the sensitive plant has
not been observed in other plants is,
first, because 1t exists in comparatively
slight degree; and second, because
other plants respond so slowly to the
same exciting causes. Moreover, the
experiment of ten or twenty slight taps
in succession has not perhaps been tried
by others before Mr.. Phipson.

The recent amendments TO the Constitution
and the laws made in pursuance of them nre
objects OF undated Democratic wrath-n
wrath going 90 such excess as to compel the
belief that free fraud I'm elections Is deemed
the only adequate means 20 party success.
These amendments of freedom, especially the
thirteenth and Fourteenth, were established
In the Constitution against the most desperate
opposition the Democracy could make AS
thoy gained power in states which had al
ready ratified them, in impotcnt passion the
farce was enacted Of formally resembling and
Withdrawing the irrevocablo assent which had
boen finally given. This was done In Indiana
and New Jersey, and Mr.. Tweed did IL in New
York.
From first 20 last the organs of Democratic
doctrine have declared these amendments IL
legally carried-ilcgnl, because Democratic
states that were out lighting were not in TO
vote, They never yet have said or admitted
that the amendments were legally adopted.
They did say, In National Convention, in 1872
that they opposed rcopening the questions
settled by the amendments, and they did
that they were legally valid they have never
said.
WAR CLAIMS.
Mr.. Conlxling then touched upon the subject
of rebel war claims and denied Mr.. RandalPs
assertion that they are barred by the Four
teenth Amendment to the Constitution. He
continued:
The error of the distinguished Speaker is
the more puzzling because, rs reported, he
said in another part of his address recently
that the Republican majority in Congress had
paid Sl00,0 900 of such claims. This, l pre-
sumo, is true, II he means that Republicans
have voted to pay Union men whose property
was taken for public use, the value of the
property so taken. But whether correct in the
amount or not, he is certainly correct in say
ing that vast sum has been so paid. Does
not this fact clearly show that such claims are
not extinguished by the Constitutions
If they were so extinguished, surely the
law making power would have not been so
stupid or wicked as TO pay them year after
year, and this without any member of either
house ever suggesting that the Constitution
stood in the way.

claim of economy Is no better than juggle.

DEMoCRATIO EcONoMY.

/, 1t will be seen that under Republican ma
jority appropriations steadily decreased down
to Democratic accession in 1877.
The speaker then proceeded to contrast the
different attitudes of the Republican and
Democratic parties on the question OF repu,
dation and of the opposition of the latter to
the plan of specie resumption. After n refer
ence to present prosperity he said:

personality of II candidate can add strength
to the Republican cause, Gen. Arthur will add
that strength wherever he is known and most
where he is best known. tAppause.1 Upon

vote and be counted; uphold the public credit
and the Sanctity of engagements; and by
doing these things the Republican party pro
poses to assure to industry, humanity, and
civilization in America the amplest welcome

had diminished his tone to nearly in

having drawn off the bow entirely from
the violin, holding it in the air and pro-
ducing no tone whatever; while his au-
dience, in raptures at the softness of his
really inaudlble sighs, made ear-trum-
pets of their hands and bent forward,
eager to catch the sound which did not
exist. Then the violinist, as if suddenly
awakening from trance, bowed to the
enraptured audience.
