THEropublicanso of the twenty Penn
sylyania district have got into very disa-
greeable muddle, which will, in all proba-
bility, result in the loss of a republican
member of congress unless there is more
good sense and patriotism manifested in the
future than have been apparent so far. Who
ever allows his selfish ambition TO imperil a
congressional district this year ought to be
remembered for it for all time to come.

WHO WANTS A CHANGE

Give us a change! for the people want
it," exclaim the democrats II the demo-
cratic party were the people this might be
true, but as that party is very far from
the loyal popular heart of this nation, it is
an empty cry, except that it represents the
distress Of chat party. Two years ago there
was, perhaps, something of this desire for a
change, for then feeling of discomfort WAS
manifest all through the north and west, on
account of what was known rs the southern
policy of the administration, and under
that feeling the democratic party secured
decided advantages in both houses of con-
gress. Under that condition of things the
democrats iancied that the desire for a
change in the government had set upon the
popular mind with so much force that it
was inevitable, and when they attempted to
starye the departments and made an extra
session of congress necessary, they acted
under that impulse. IL was during that
extra session that the democrats, acting
under the assumption that a change was to
come, betrayed their true inwardness to the
country NllN AlAhlNh bll hllA ny llltlI III
cautious development Of spirit, which has
driven all desire for change which will
bring the southern brigadeIs TO the front,
out of the public mind outside that po-
ltcal circle.
The business democrats do not desire a
change, for the reason that they see in
evtable disturbances of the general busi-
ness Of the country as consequence. They
win not contend for change under such
circumstances. No true republican desires
that the democrats shall be placed in power
over the interests Of the govenm ent, for the
reason that they have shown themselves
unworthy Of public confidence by their rev.
olutionary procliyities, They have, by theil
own acts, taught the people that they pur.
pose to wipe out all the measures born ol
the war, and are determined, as opportunity
offers, to deprive the nation Of all the fruits
of the war to crush rebellion. With thesC
facts and inevitable consequences staring
them in the face nobody but those who

Agriculture In the LimekiIn Club.

THE Committee on Agriculture re-
ported that their midsummer estimate
of crops had been more than realized
except in the case of buckwheat, which
is always deceiving crop to estimate
on. There was TO special cause to
thank Providence for the big crops. for
il was just as easy for her to turn out
big crops as little ones. She wasn't u
cent out of pocket either way. The
committee recommended that the Club
offer a premium to any person who will
invent flat-boat with a pillow attached,
SO that farmers may not be delayed by
wet weather. Also, that farmers pay
more attention to natural history. The
committee had conversed with score
of farmers not one of whom could ex-
plain why cows did not sit down to rest
the same as dogs. nor why hired man
too tired to tackle the woo;l-pile for
fifteen minutes could walk two miles
and dance all night The committee
estimated that 5000 mowers and reap
ers, $4,000 scythcs, $4,000 plows. COCO
scrapers, 81, 800 hay-rakcs aud $4,000
cuitivators would be left in the fields to
winter by the thrifty farmers of this

To add to our anxiety the guide and
drivers declared that the horses and

were pitiful sight, indeed. Two of

JACOB TERwrLLIGER, farmer in the
Shawangunk Mountains, New York,
tells of a desperate encounter he had
few days ago with rattlesnakes. A
large part of Terwilliger's farm is
planted with apple trees. and it was
while gathering apples that he discov-
cred the snakes. In the middle of the
orchard lay an old log. Terwilliger
mounted the log, but in leaning over
to grasp a limb he lost his balance,
and the log rolled over. throwing him
TO the ground. He fell on his side di-
rectly in the track of the log, and in
the very center of that track was bed
Of rattlesnakes. More than one of the
snakes attacked him before he regained
his feet, and one was fastened in his
clothing. His twelve-year old son, wLO
was near, was of little help, but Ter
williger got a rough stick and attacked
the snakes. Many of the snakes showed
fight, and one big one bit one of Ter
williger's hands. But Terwilliger, in
less than an hour. killed eight rattle
snakes, the largest measuring five feet,
and having seventeen ra:tles.
Terwilliger still exhibits two scars
on his hands. He says he lost some
blood from the wounds. and hurried
home. but he lost consciousness as he
reached the farmhouse door. and fell
forward. His wife took him in.
But, by gracious, thought was all
done for" he said.
What saved you?'
"Whisky-just whisky: that's all
there was of it. Augusta Just put them
hands into whisky poultices, and poured
lots of whisky inside of me. Ii cured
me in two days. My wife says she new
er knowed it to fail for any kind of
pisen bite. And whisky amt bad dose

The Importance OF Punctuation.

TIE well-known legal doctrine that
no notice can be taken OF stops in inter-
preting document received rather
striking Illustration yesterday at the
Middlesex Registration Court. A vote
had been claimed in respect of certain
buildings by firm which occupied
part OF them, and questions had been
addressed to the claimants, which they
were required to answer in writing.
The particular question upon which the
difficulty arose was whether the build
ing was wholly or in part occupied by
the tirin. and the answer which it was
intended to give was, me. Part of
the premises is occupied by u.s." Un-
fortunately for the claimants, who were
OF the Liberal persuasion, their clerk or
literary representative had not the part
of a very ready writer. and the answer.
as sent in to the officials, read, "No
part of the premises is occupied by u.s."
The full stop, which would have been
so essential a factor in determining the
sense of the sentence. had been alto
gether omitted, and its absence was not
even atoned for by a capital letter at
the beginning of the word part
which might have excused the revising
barrister in supplying it gratuitously.
SO as 10 make sense of the passage,
much in the same style as a commen-
tator engaged in publishing or inter-
preting text of -Eschylus or Pindar
He accordingly read the words in their
literal meaning, and held that the
claimants, in making such an answer,
had abandoned their claim to vote for
the premises. II is difficult to see how
he could well have come to different
conclusion. The result, nevertheless,
throws some doubt upon the maxim al
ready quoted. that punctuation is in
legal point of view frivolous detail
