Okra is vegetable seldom found
in farmers gardens at the North, but
one which is easily cultivated, very
palatable, and furnishes much putri-
ment. A Southerner once said to US;
"The planters have greatly the ad-
vantage over your Northern farmers
in the vegetable and fruit line. I
should hate to live where oranges
and okra don't grow" We made
little reply, but at the dinner table
gave him an okra soup and dessert
of apples and pears, and he confessed
that the blessings of life were more
evenly distributed than he had sup
posed. They would be more evenly
distributed than they are if producers
were more alive to their opportuni-
ties. The culture of okra is very sim.
pie, and we are glad to notice that it
is more appreciated at the North than
formerly. 1t can be grown in hills
OF. drills from the seed. We prefer
drills, putting the seed in pretty
thick, SO that the shoots may aid
each other in pushing up to the light
and air, and, when the plarts are
well rooted, thinning them out so
they may stand eight or ten inches
apart, and the drills tar enough from
each other to allow of cultivation by
horse power. AS okra is a Southern
vegetable, the negroes call it ''gum-
bo." 1t must not be sown till the
ground is warm, and the land should
be so rich that it will push the
growth rapidly. 1t makes very rich

is, and makes delicious and whole.

lynching at Leadville soon, and much
excitement prevails there ON account Of
the increase of crime in that city, there
having been three murderous and fatal

eight untried murder cases. Sixty

THE MAINE ELECTION.

An election for State officers and
members of Congress takes place to-
day in Maine. There are two tickets
in the field, the Republican and Fusion
ist. The latter is supported by the
Democrats and Greenbackers. The
Republicans claim the State, and the
only question of difference is the ma
jority. The Fusionists concede the
State to the Republicans by 5000 ma
jority, but Blaine says it will be 1000.
From 1856 to 1878 Maine was re.
liable Republican State. 1t gave Grant
a majority of over $4,000; and Hayes,
in 1876, had majority of over 10000.
Last year there were three tickets in
the field for State officers and members
of the Legislature, and the combined
vote of the Democrats and Greenback-
ers was 1872 in excess of the Republican
vote, though the latter had majority
Of the Legislature, and that body elect
ed the Republican nominee Governor.
The Republicans have made very
active canvass of the State this year.
Many of their ablest speakers have
been on the stump for weeks, and
money was freely expended where it
would do the most good, as the loss of
the State would insure the defeat of
Garfield. The Democratic speakers
gave up the contest two weeks ago and
withdrew from the canvass. General
Weaver, the Greenback- Labor candi-
date for President, delivered few
speeches in the principal cities recent
ly. but as he opposed the Fusion ticket
and advised the Greenbackers to vote
the straight ticket, he did more harm
than good to the cause which he pre-
tended to favor.

NORTHERN LANDER.

The northern, or what has heretofore
been the tail end of Lander county,
is rapidly increasing in Importance and
population, incident to the development
of the mines of Galena and Lewis dis
tricts. Austin has hitherto controlled
the politics of Lander, and no person
in the northern part of the county
could be elected to office, unless he was
Endorsed by the Austinites. Now the
northern camps are beginning to assert
their rights, and it looks as if there
would be a contest for supremacy at
the ensuing election. The first indica-
ton of this movement is made at Battle
Mountain, where the Messenger is to be
issued weekly. This contest may
result in change in the map of Nevada.

Immense swarms or Flies.

HALIFEx, N. s., Sept. 7.-Immense
swarms of flies passed over Guysboro'

and resembled a dark cloud. People
were much alarmed.
A dispatch from Poughkeepsie, N. Y,
dated the 9th inst, says storm of flies
was encountered on the Hudson river
OH Saturday afternoon, similar to the
one recorded in the London Telegraph
as having been seen at Havre a week or
two ago. The steamer "Martin," bound
south, encountered the swarm between
New Hamburger and Newburgh. 1t
was like the Hayre storm, as described
by the London Telegraph, seemingly a
great drift of black snow, and it reached
southwark from shore to shore as far as
the eye could reach. There were mil
lions upon millions of the flies, and
they hurried northward as thick as snow
fakes driven by strong wind. They
lodged upon the cl thing of the passen-
gers on the steamer, and were minutely
examined. They were long and black
and had light wings, and the cloud must
have been miles in length. The steamer

A PROMISING SKIRMISH AT
LAST

Everybody sgroaning over the dead
ly dulness of the canvass, but at last
there is hopeful sign of life in the
West. Mr.. Hendricks, Herald dis
patches from indianapolis report,
charged General Garfield with having
helped to doctor returns and affidavits
at New Orleans in 1875 as "visiting
statesman" Thereupon the Indian
apolis Journal Republican organ) re-
torted that Mr.. Hendricks had made
statements which we're without found
alton in fact, and which ought not to
be made by him, because if true they
would disgrace General Garfield. On
this Mr.. Hendricks in public speech
ut Indianapolis reiterated the accusa-
ton and offered such proof as he pos
sessed, and this drew out Secretary
Sherman, who, with gallantry which
shows that he is of the same blood
with his brother the General, not only
exculpates Mr.. Garfield, but white
washes the Returning Board and all its
proceedings.
The Shermans were always an i'm
pulsive race we suspect the Secretary
will see presently that he has gone too
far. The less the republicans say in
praise or justification of the Louisiana
Returning Board the better for them.
Mr.. Sherman has persistently stood by
those shameless swindlers, by no means
to his own credit, and it is amusing to
see how easily Mr.. Hendricks has now
drawn him into controversy which is
pretty sure, if it is continued, to dam
age the republicans. tits not prudent
for them to help revive the infamous
story of the Louisiana Returning
Board.
But even his opponents must admire
the Secretary's readiness to stand by
his Returning Board friends. He has
never failed them from the time he re-
turned to Washington from New Or
leans. There was at that time an
amusing story current of bis zeal. He
remarked to very eminent citizen of
Washington, "Sir, the members of
the Returning Board are gentlemen
they are honorable men they are as
honest as I am as honest as you
are" "Hold on, hold on" cried the
gentleman he was addressing, "hold
on, Sherman you may compare them
with yourself, but you must not CON-
pare them with me. l can't let you
do that But this only shows that,a
