Senator Allison, an excellent authority on
tie politics of Iowa, says the Republican
majority in that State will reach $4,000 III
case the Democrats and Grecnbackers unite,
and will go much higher if they do not. Iowa
is always a sure Republican State, but this IN
formation is important because the causes
which are at work to produce s,ich big ma
iority there will bring out big Republican
vote in the close States. The Republican
canvass in all parts of the country proceeds
upon broad. well-deiined National issues and
its effects will not be manifest in streaks and
spots.
Corporation Counsel Whitney fails to find
anv ground upon which the city government
could legally proceed in passing an ordinance
to provide for the safety OF passengers Oh
steamboats,. Congress, he says, has full juris-
diction over the subject /; but while the States
are not precluded from adopting additional
regulations not conflicting with those pre-
scribed by the General Government, the COM
mon council of a city cannot exercise the
function. Probably the subject will come W
next winter at Albany. The steamboat ex-
curson business on the waters around this
city has grown to such proportions thai
some police regulations for the benefit OF
pass. ngers are undoubtedly needed.
The causes for the unfortunate separation
between the State Board of Charities ana the
State Aid Association are explained IN the
address recently issued by the latter body.
Il seems that this separation, and the failure
of The Senate at the last session to pass the
Assembly bill legaizing the visits OF members
of the Aid Association TO the public mstitu-
tons, have resulted in seriously Gripping an
important phllanthropic work. The Aid AsSo-
cation claims no authority, and only asks for
ITS members the privilege of seeing how the
| institutions of charity and correction are man
aged. The good this society has done III the
mast. and the recognized excellence Of It's mo-
tlves and plans, should remove all official OBJ
stacles that are thrown III the way OF the
prosecution of its labOrs.

The attempt to organize prohibition party
in Maine is plainly a trck of the unprincpled
Fusionists. Maine has a strict prOhbitOry
liquor law already, and its enforcement is a
purely local affair. In the few localities where
. it is not strictly enforced the remedy is in the
hands of the people. No petty factional party
gotten up to draw votes from the Republican

amusing to note how the aversion to
labor'saving machinery has always
agitated England. The first saw mill
was established by Dutcbman in 1858,
but the public outcry against the new
tangled machine was so violent, that
the proprietor was forced to decamp
with more expedition that ever did
Dutohman before. The evil was thus
kept out of England for several years,
or rather generations; but In l76S an
unlucky timber merchant, hoping that
after long time tho public would
be less watchful of its own interests,
made rash attempt to construct an
other mill. The guardians Of the pub
nc Weiis,e, however, were on the alcr

Asotine.-.rhe Annales Industrielles
notes a new discovery by NJ. hedde-
hault, which consists In the separation
OF wool from cotton in rags and waste
products In which these two textiles
are mixed, by treating them with steam
at 1b0 deg. O. under pressure OF five
atmOspheres. Under the influence Of
this temperature the wool Is decompo-
sed, fuses, and flows off into lower re-
ceptacle, while the cotton. flax, anu in
TACT all vegetable fiber, are unattached. :.
1t Is then only necessary to pound and
wash the latter to obtain products con.
tainln& no longer any traces of wool,
and which are admirably adapted for
bleaching and manufacturing into pa
per. The solution Of wool, eVaporated
to dryness, has been named by the in
ventor azotine. Owing to the Increase
In value Of mixed cotton and wooden
rags thus treated, especially for paper
making, the cost of the operation ia vir-
tually covered, and the new product

material, which is completely soluble
In water, aud which contains all It's

AGRICULTURE.

THE HORSES BREAsT.--Supposlng the
team to be In the very best possible
plight for heavy seasons work, If a
badly fitted collar be pnt into use, the
favorable condition referred to will
count for no considerable sum as q fac.
tor In the springs work. When it Is
considered that every pound Of earth
moved by the plow is disturbed by the
harrow or seed drill, and every rod
traversed by the reaper or wagon,
comes by power obtained by direct
pressure upon the horses breast, tile
Importance Of looking to the surface
which performs SO important part,
first, last, and all the time, should be
apparent. 1t Is the heavy and constant
pressure upon tho breast IN plowing
that endangers the breast Of the horse.
There is no let up Of the pressure, as
IN propeljing the wagon, for in the
latter case, when the load goes down
an incline, tho collar leaves the breast,
giving a little respite from the pres
sure, allowing the skin and hair to
part with its moisture, and the should
ers to take a rest. But in plowing
there is no auch chance OF relief. The
pressure OF collar Is grinding, heat
and sweet producing process, and If
It's surface Is not absolutely smooth,
and the texture the most even
and pllable that it is possible to
secure, the surface will soon show the
effects, and your Ill fitted horse is quite
unfit for work. At the time of shed-
ding the spring coat the horse Is much
more Liable to collar gall than at any
other time, because tho skin Is made
sensitive by shedding the hair. Many
farmers practice careful washing Of
the breasC, morning and evening, in
cold salt water. 1t Is believed that
this-using Il common phrase-harden

doubt OF the beneficial influence. BY
keeping the breast bathed In the man
ner named, and the surface Of the col
lar smooth and clean, the breast can
generally be kept clear Of harm. Yet

and during the season tor this, unusual
vigilance Will be in order. 1t is only

maker who in every respect makes

The VALUE OF COOP COoKERY.--We
do not need our medical advisers to In
sist upon the Importance of good cook
cry, and to point out to us, as Sir
Henry Thompson does, that the rela-
tion, not only between food and a
healthy population, but "between food
and virtue, between the process of di-
gestion and the state Of mind which re.
suits from it," should occupy no sub
ordinate place In the practical arrange
ments Of life. 1t would be, perhaps,
going too far to afll"m that good cook
cry would be an absolute safeguard
against orime, and that the coster-
monger would never begin 'Jumping
on his mother" had he just partaken
OF .flets de poulct aux trutes, sauce
supreme, with glass or two OF Pomard,
but there can be no doubt Of the civiliz-
Ing effects Of well-cooked food. There
ts no occasion to gormandize-to imi-
tate the man, who after stutfing him
self with haggts continued to eye tho
collapsed bag with grateful affection,
told the walter to behave kindly to it
when removed, and followed 1t out of
the room with a silent benediction;
nor that other hero, mentioned by
Byron, who, having heard that the
birds call ed kittie wakes were good
whets, ate SIX of them and complained
that he was "no hungrier than when
he began" But prudent man will If
1t be possible, take heed as to what he
eats, and the proper preparation of his
food; and though the dinner-bell be
hardly "the tOcsin of the soul" to him,
he will hear 1t with pleasurable antici-
pations, and not be doomed to disap-
pointment.
