GIVE PUT DOWN THE RE-
BELLION."

Mr.. EDITOR The HiIlsboro Ga
zette of the 9th inst. contains an edi-
torial under the above heading, in
which the Editor undertakes to prove
that majority of the soldiers from
Ohio, in the late war, were Demo
Gratis, and he makes the vote for
Lincoln in 1860 the basis of his argu-
ment. He says that Ohio furnished
$4,000 soldiers to put down the Re
bellion, and the vote for Lincoln in
1860 was 23I,864, or in round num-
bers, 1905 less than the soldiers
sent to the Union army, so that if it
was the Republicans that furnished
the men, every man in Ohio who
voted for Lincoln in 1860 woruId
have had to go into the army and
then the number would have been
short 10000.
Is the Editor of the Gazette silly
enough to think for a moment that
he can deceive any man of ordinary
intelligence with such stuff The
$4,000 soldiers furnished by Ohio
to put down the Democratic Rebel
lion were not all in the field at once.
They were furnished at different
periods and for different terms Of
service, and there were not at any
time more than about 5000 men in
the field from Ohio, and fully one
third of them were minors, But, Mr..
| Gazette, if a majority Of these sol
diers were Democrats, how do you
account for the large Democratic
/ gain on the home vote of the Demo
cratic party in 1864, over the vote Of
1860? The vote for President in
1860 was Lincoln 23I,6IO, Doug
lass 187, 232, Bell I2,104, Brecken-
bridge II,4o5. Total opposition to
Lincoln 21o,83I. Lincoln over all,
2o,76o. At the Presidential election
/ of 1864 Lincoln had 22Aoo8 on the
home vote, and ALAG on the army
vote, while Mcclellan had 1854
on the home vote and 4,757 on the
army vote. Thus you see that while
Lincoln lost on the home vote in
1864 over his vote in 1860, 1902,
Mcclellan gained on the home vote
of 1864 over Douglass in 1860, $3.50
Now, Mr.. Gazette, how do you &C
count for their large gain on the
home vote, if your men were out ii
/ the field, fighting your Southern
brethren? There were just 45,9os
votes cast in the army by Ohio sol
diers in 1864, and allowing that ther;
were 20, 600 minors in the army from
Ohio, that would give us in rOunc
numbers $4,000 men from Ohio il
the field in 1904. The vote show
that of the As, 900 who voted, 4I,o0l
zUsrs Republicans.
Ifa majority of the soldiers in tht
late war were Democrats, then th'
strong Democratic counties made
very poor showing. Let US take TO
example the great Democratic coun
ties of Butler, Brown, Allen, Au
glaize and Holmes, which gave al
aggregate vote of 1878 for McCIel
Ian against $3.50 for Lincoln in 1864
How does the soldier vote Of these
| counties stand?

The Great Wall of China

The great wall of China was meas
ured in many places 10y Mr.. Inthank,
an American Engineer, lately engaged
in S survey for a Chinese railway, His
measurement gave the height ofeightccn
feea and width on the topaz fifteen
feet. Every few hundred yards there is
tower twenty-four feet square and
from twenty to twenty-five feet high.
The foundation of the wall as of solid
granite. Mr. UBthank brough sNith him
brick from the wall, which IL supposed
IL have been made 300 wears before the
time of Christ. Ia building this inn
mense stone fence 10 keep out the Tar
tars, the builders never attempted to
avoid mountains or chasms 80 save cX-
pcnse. For 300 miles the wall goes
over plain and mountain. and every foot
Of the foundation h IN solid granlte, and
the rest of the structure solid masonry.
In some places the wall is built smooth
up against the bank, or canOnS, or precl-
pieces, where there Is a sheer descent Of
900 feet. Small streams are archcd
over, but on the larger streams the wall
runs TO the waters edge and . tower is
built on each side. On the top Of the
wall there are brcastworkS, or dcfcEses,
facing in and out, SO the defending forces
can pass from one tower to another
without being exposed to an cncny from
either side. To calculate the time OF
building or cost Of this wall is beyond
human skill. So far as the magnitude
of the work is concerned, II surpdsSes
everything IN ancient or modern times
Of which there is any trace. The pyra-
mids OF Egypt are nothing compared

Barley.

There are 100000 Bushels of barley
imported into the United States every
year. As the successful cultivation of
barley il only possible with good farm
Mg the reason of this large Importation
Must lie with our poor farming. 1t is
both a spring and winter grain, but in
Qis country it is generally sown IN the
spring, In selecting seed choose that
which is of pale, lively yellow, intermiX-
ed with a bright, whitlsh cast, and free
from blackncss at the tail if the rind be
a little shriyeled it indicates thin skin,
which is desirable. 1t is necessary to
change the seed from time to time for
that grown in a different soil as this
grain becomes coarser every year. The
principal varieties are the two and six
rowed; in Europe the latter is preferred
for its productiyeness and hardness. IN
this country the tWo-rowed is generally
cultivated on account of its superior full
ness and freedom from smut. OF the
subvarieties the Hudson's Bay is very
Vrodu ctive and ripcns early; the Cheva-
der and Providence are both uNuriant
srowers. The soil for barley should be
rich loan, between light sand and heavy
clay and we'll drained. Sow i'm the spring

or clover lay turned over the preceding
fall; il may also follow well manfred
and clcanly herd crop. If sown ON sod
plow in lightly, and aftcward harrow or
roll. See that the soil be well pulverzcd,
and SOW from one and a half to two and
q half bushels per acre. Barley should
never follow or precede the other white
grains. \ lengthy departure from this
rule will cause serious detriment 10 soil
and crops. On indifferent soils a light
dressing of compost may be applied, or
in moderate quantity after the plants
have commenced growing in the spring,
II the ground is dry and not compact
rolling will be of service when the plants
are four or five inches high. 1t gives
support To the roots, destroys insects,
multiplics seed stalks and increases their
yigor. When too luXuriant barley may
be fed OIL, but not too closely. Cookie,
wild mustard and other weeds should
be pulled before .hev are ia blossom.
| Barley is inferior in nutriment t. wheat
and rye, but superior 10 oats. There is
no better feed for horses when ground,
it is excellent feed for COWS, producing
rich milk When barley is mixed with
boileG potatoes and fed to pigs il pro-
duces more pork, and OF d better favor,
than any other food. 1t is also excel
