Progress of the Grant Boom.

Grant is ain the hands OF his
friends" Whatever OF doubt at
tached ut one time to the question
Of Grants consent TO sgain run for
President is now dissipated. "Bar-
kis is willin'," if not anxious. The
men who have hold of the third
term scheme are among the abIest
and sbrcwdest managers in tho Re-
publican party. The election OF
Senator Don Cameron as chairman
Of the National Committee was an
important part in the plot. Penn
sylvania is to give the grand send.
off to the movement whom its State
Convention meets. Pennsylvania
is to start the ball rolling. The
Republican State Convention met
in Philadelphia the other day, and
it was estimated that of the seven.
ty-two Committeeman pi escnt, not
more than four were opposed to the
nomination Of Grant for q third
term. Don Cameron carries the
Republican party Of Pennsylvania
in his broeches' pocket. and it will
be tho easiest thing in the world for
him to elk" the Keystone State.
Jack Logan is to bring a solid del.
egation from Illinois, and ex- Post.
master.General Tyner from Ind.
ana. The Southern States, rotten
boroughs which cannot furnish Il
single Republican electoral vote,
will go almost "solid" tor Grant in
the Convention. With a "solid
South and what Northern States
he can pick up, Grants prospects
for carrying off the nomination are
excellent. Sherman and Blaine arc
badly frightened, and have reason
TO be.
While Grant was in Washington
bis managers handled him with ex
trcme care. The old ring desired
TO give him tremendous ovation
but his managers, fearing the con
sequences of such revival o.
Grants old associations on th,
minds of the people, put their foo
down on the proposal. On The othel
hand they were equally cautious tt
keep Grant aloof from the prescn
Administration. Neither Haye'

Husband and Wife.

The Catholic Columbian thinks
that "a great deal of the misery
and unhappiness that exists in fam.
lies might be averted, IN whole or
in part if the husband and wife
would only try TO understand each
other and show q little moro for
bearance with each others faults.
incompatiblIty of temperament is
only another name for stubborn
ness, and will over exist where the
parties insist on misintespret,ng
each others deficiencies. Where
this mutual understanding exists,
everything moves along smoothly.
If a mistake is made it is passed
over without comment, and does
not become the cause of chickering's
and dissensions; if a hasty word is
spoken, Its effects are laughed away
and forgotten as soon as uttered.
In this way much trouble is avoid.
ed that tho contrary course will in.
evitably bring about. Home should
evor be the abode of peace and con.
tentment, and there can never be o
necessity for q contrary state of
things, as there can be no justifca.

Col. POindeYteY Dulsn.

We notice that several papers il
the First District, with commenda
bic zeal, are trying 10 create q
"boom" for Col. J. W. House in
order to secure his nomination foi
the next torn OF Congress, and SC
tar ~ VIC are personally concerned
Col. House has no warmer fricnd
in the district. We advocated bis
claim before tho last District con
vcntion, and under the same cir
cumstsnces would do so again /; but
with the lights before US at present
we doubt IT it would be the part OF
wisdom 10 make any changes in
our Representatives just at this
particular juncture. We think it
would be the very top Of madne ness.
II is time that the democracy were
Supplying the lessons taught by our
political opponents. If we will
look occr the records of Congress,
We will find that tho most promi-
nent and influential men are those
whom their constituents have re-
turned term after term. Witness
Randall, Morrison, Garfield, Blaine
and others. They change only
when they find representative is
incompetent, while the democrats
fritter away their influence and
standing by constant changes
sending new men who have to learn
over again. Col Poindexter Dunn
has made u faithful and energetic
representative, and we believe is
fully entitled to another term.
With large legislative experience ;
possessing fine personal appear
ancc, coupled with a strong practi.
cal mud, wei! stored with wisdom,
II fluent and eloquent speaker, and
with the experience had.in the last
term Of Congress, Col. Dunn is, in
our humble opin,on, the very best
man we could send to represent. the
First District IN the next Congress
The republicans will make des
perste effort to secure the reigns Of
government. Their past policy
aud high handed measures will
again be resorted to, to carry oui
their purposes, and it bchooves tht
democracy TO have their best ant
most experienced men as the'l
acknowledgements. The First Dis
tr.ct will DO rccreant to her bes
and dearest interest il, in the tint
of . great political revolution as il
anticipated at the next election, sh'
sacrifices that interest, in order 4
pander to the aspirations Of he

1t seems to be questionable il tn,

The discussion OF them has gone
on for two weeks, TO the exclusion
OF other business, and promises to
last sometime longer. Already
protests against delay are coming
in from Democrats and Republicans
from all sections. There is an un-
doubted wish in Congress, as well
as out of it, to pass the approprla-
ton bills, and attend to other leg
islation which the good OF the
country demands, at once, and ad-
journ. There is even u disposition
to postpone action on the various
funding bills until next session.
The House Committee can report
several of tho regular appropria-
ton bills at any time, and all Of
them are IN good state Of prcpar.

the new ru!es, the Senate will prob
ably debate Senator Bayard's reso-
luton. Is it not time for a Demo

The question of sufIerage in this

whose government is based upon

upon Congress the "power' to "cx

The Failures of a Settler.

Editor Of the Florida Agriculturist:
To detail the failures of the many
experiments made by our colony
would be to occupy two much space,
so we will be brief
Our first mistake was, knowing too
much. We tried the northern
methods of planting, but several costly
trials proved that the sooner we con-
formed to native habits the better.
The field seeds from anywhere
North did badly, tor instance, corn
invariablv ,asseled when foot high
and never a good ear showed for our
labor.
We lost heavy by the use Of
guano, cotton seed meal and the like
OF "artifioially manures." If concen-
trated, the plants 'fired" if diluted it
Ieached and the plants failed to fruit.
1t took a year or two, and consider.
able money to satisfy us what was
reeded, rather what was not needed,
and the result has been loss Of faith in
most fertilizers and more dependence
in frequent stirring of the soil.
We began clearing up our lands
and such a job-6re, axe, and spade
were tired, dynamite proved no bet
ter than powder, and kerosene was
still better. II anyone has made a
success of clearing out stumps, he
ought to give us the benefit of his ex-
pertinent, and that soon.
At a great expense and the loss OF
several valuable animals we have
found the Florida prairie pony far
better than the heavy Kentucky or
Georgia horse, and that white hogs
Will not do we'll in this climate, and
that some "ranges" are sure death to
cows or sheep, but we believe this is
owing to the prevalence Of the
Cassia Chaacnc)sriSt0 or partridge
pea; this weed the cows eat, and
rapidly decline from something like
