Indian Depredations.

The fair reader shudders when she thinks of the settlers wife watching, from the door of her rude hut, the retreating form of her hus- band going out to his daily labor-geing out perhaps to return not again, for before night fall savage hand may have laid him low among the prairie grasses. Or it may be child, bright-eyed daughter, is snatcbed away in an unguarded moment, to grace the next war dance. When we read the heart- rending details of these savage depredations, we are apt to blame the government for not taking more strict precautions to insure the settlers protection. But we daily read of the depredations of that arch -fend, consumption, with scarcely thought of the terrible inroads it is making in human life. Tens of thousands of homes are annually desolated by consump- tion to one by Indian outrage. Like the h. dian, consumption oftenest comes stealthily, and no danger is apprehended until the vic tim suddenly finds himself hopelessly ensnar- ed, and deaths fatal arrow ends the scene. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, q powerful alternative. or blood-purifier, and tonic, has restored thousands of consumptives who had tried every otherremedy recommend ed to them, without obtaining any relief, and are willing to testify to it's remedial powers

Twelve gentlemen, whose spirits were high, once agreed to dine together at Greenwich, England, on fixed day, and, on the princi- pie of ''the more the merrier," it was arranged that the number of the party should be doub- led by each bringing friend. The ''friend" in question was to be the man whom each of the original twelve severally and respectively disliked most heartily. When the guests ar rived at the Trafalgar, there proved to be but thirteen in al everybody having invited Mir. Vernon Harcourt. So runs the story, which IS probably as true as nest others. For some unexplained reason, Sir William Harcourt has never been popular parsonage. Probably two reasons initiate against his social success He is extremely learned, and has habit of demonstrating to gentlemen who argue with him that they are proportionately ignorant of the subject under discussion. As was said of Macaulay, ''he is so confoundedly cocksure about every thing"

The Hartford Times is greatly delighted with Hancock, "To democrats hts nomination. ts satistactory on mGny accounts, and not the Ieast reason ts his acknowledged statesnaaaaship" His acknowledged statesmanship'' dates from his Louisiana order in which he announced the sub.ection of the military to the civil power. The principle is of course an axione of republican government. If there was any statemanship it rests upcn the appli- cation of this unquestioned principle-a mar row basis for acknowledged statesmanship' it seems to us.'

The correspondent of the Springfield Re- publican in attendance at Cincinnati gives us the following spirited sketch of Mr. William H. Barnum, among other neat portraits of dis tinguished Democrats:
 W. H. Barnum. close-lirped, stopping slightly, talking little and acting swiftly with habit borrowed of his great exampler, Til den, of crowdlng you into corner. Whitney, Paynes son-in-law, is another manager, a Springfield boy, young smooth faced, with a college air, the sort of man whose democra. cy IS doubted by polite people-as compli- ment. Smith Weed sits in his inner room with thick, black, useful beard which hides his mouth and covers half his face. He and Barnum lean on each other, and make small secret of the uselessness of callow conscience in politics. : How great surprise the Hancock stampede must have been to him will appear from the following:
 Hancock is useful stalking horse for the men who want to get nearer before firing off their real choice. As an ingenious Vermonter said Saturday 'I think we had better go for Hancock for while. It pleases them at home and they rathe: expect it, and it won't hurt us here-at present.

 The result of that second meeting in which there was slight majority in favor of free school, vas of no value, as it appeared that there had again been an inforlnality in the call, and the ground had to be all gone over again. The third time call was published, and then the opposition went to work, with energy, system and determlnation. while the friends of the project allowed the cause to take care of itself almost entirely
 June 18th was the date fixed for the next meeting. On the evening of the 17th ''Ned Buntline" lectured in the school house, on the Folly of Union Free School" and on the opening of tine meeting of the 18th, moved to proceed at ance to take the vote on the ques- tion, without debate. Te my surprise this motion prevailed and the voting was proceed ed with, each person rising as his name was called and declaring his vote viva goce.
 There were one hundred and fifty votes cast, sixty-nine for, and eighty -one against the measure. So that after three or four months agitation the question is lost, and that too, largely by the votes of persons whose real interests were on the side. of the proposed school. Persons with no property to be taxed and several children to educate voted against the measure. All the arts of the demagegue have been used to influence votes. Among the voters were thirty-seven women. Of these twenty seven voted "no," while only ten voted faye" Our local paper is very strong in it's assertions that the measure was lost through the votes of women.
 For my part think is shows very clearly that organized leadership is of great import ance where masses of men are to be influenced The vote does not represent the sober convic- tion of the intelligent portion of the commu- nity. Party feeling has run very high and personalities have been indulgcd in, and what ever could be used to rouse opposition and secure the requisite number of votes. At any rate one thing is evident that the average female mind is as susceptible to influence frem prejudice and undue passion, as that of the male voter Perhaps in time she might learn from experience to be on her guard against sophstry and the tricks of politicians, but now may she not from her very honesty and inexperence, be more liable to be misled !?

LATE OCTOBER.

No more the food of rudy bloom,
That poured through air-felds rich perfume.
When nights were hushed and DAYS were long,
And hedges throbbed with hidden song.
Save where the yellow goiden-rod
Crowds close the hooks in lane and wood,
The flowers Of summer day. are dead,
The glory of their bloom Il fed.
The stealthy frost has gript the wood.
And pressed from dying leaves the blood;
Ihe rHsfling cornfield-, eri.ped and brown,
Are trailing all their Gamers down.
The vagrsnt geese, with Changing flight,
90 piping southwark in the night;
The rniser squirrel barir- deep
A wealth Of nuts for winters keep.
Nest-songs beneath the caves are dead,
Though no one knew when swallows fed,
A gusty wind goes signing by,
Prepare, my soul, for winter nigh
Mourn not that summers web IL spun,
Another haTvest's work IA done.
The fading Of the summer leaf,
The ripening Of the harvest sheaf,
Are Of that plan perfect part,
Which God holds ever in His heart.

APPLE TREES.

a great many persons are feeling this
year that they have too many apple trees
growing on their places. 1t would be
folly to get discouraged concerning fruit
raising. and so dig up all our trees after a
season like this. ard yet it is not bad
plan TO look the farm oger and see il there
is not greater or smaller number than
are actually cumberers Of the ground.
Any tree that 1oes not pay its way is bet
ter removed than standing. We have no
more feeling against digging up tree we
have planted, after we find we do not
need it, than about digging out a rock That
is in the way Of ploughing. The tree is
greater nuisance than the rock, as it in
jures by its shade and wide-spreading
roots. Then surplus of trees makes n
harbor for many kinds Of insects which
become pests upon those trees we do
value. So our advice i, consider well
before LAYING the axe al the foot OF the
apple trees, but having considered well,
act according 10 your best Judgment. APP
pies on hand may be we'll worth feeding
10 cattle, but we would choose 10 grow
forage crops instead. especially on good
tillage land Windiall and second quality
apples that are not already disposed Of,
may be gathered into bins in the barn or
cellar, and fed to cattle for some weeks
yet. with good results. They are better
after becoming somewhat mellow and
ripe. II is very much safer to run them
through root-cutter, then there is no
danger from choking ". r. Farmer.
