SENATOR HILL ON THE ELECTION

The following private letter from Sena-
tor Hill. of Georgia, is, with his permis-
sion. furnished to the New York Tribune
for publication by the Hon. 5. B. Chit
tenden of brooklyn, to whom it was adj
dressed. In it MI Hill declares his hear

nounces the unscrupulous and insane at

plunge the country into the miscries of
another disputed count.

Va Dear Wt'. ChiHcNd6":
| regret SO much to see you were de-
feated. 1t was disagreeable surprise to
me. :: = Well. my friend. the most
anxious event in our history has become
Il fact-a solid North against Il solid
South, No language can express to You
the view | take of this event for evil. 1t
can have no logic-if continued-but dis
ruption into several monarchies or the
absolute consolidation of all the States
into one Empire. In either event our
constitutional system will fail.
In my opinion the time has come when
the one great question for real statesmen
is. how speedily to break up this sec
tional soliditv, ana organize parties alto
uether on other iSSueS. The Democratic
party is hated Al the North, and. there

A Temperance Jollifcation Meeting.

The Local Option Club of Port Deposit
had Il grand iolliication meeting on Tues
day night last, to commemorate the great
victory achieved III Cecil county ut the late
election The Hall was brilliantly ilumin-
ated and festooned with evergreens that
We're kindly donated by our Democratic
friends. The Hall was packed and the
greatest enthusiasm prevailed during the
entire evening" the choir outdoins all their
previous good performances, and every
body was happy and 4 little more so. Stir
ring addresses We're made by the Revs.
Messrs. Browne. Aiken, Duvall, of Will
mington, and Branch, of Virginia, and Mr.
John NJ. McClenahan, and at the close of
the meeting three cheers were given to Mr..
John NJ McClenahan for his untiring and
devoted efforts to secure Local option, three
cheers for the ladies for their valuable as
sistance, three rousing cheers for our worthy
President, Mr. Rowland, and three extra
rousing cheers for the choir, all accompa-
MED with the everlasting tiger. Altogether,
the meeting was grand fadlc to II success
lul I'ulIlis- tllt 'oulSt VI
meeting the following preambleS and resolu-
tions were offered and unanimously adopt
ed, and ordered to be published in the coun-
ty papers.
WHEREAS, The thoughtful people of Cecil
county have for years felt the great burden
of the licensed liquor traffic in the indirect
waste and expenditure annually incurred:
and believing it to be the great producer of
disease, suffering, woe, and decentralization:
that its entire history is one of ruin, pev-
erty, crime, and sorrow, of broken hearts,
bhghted homes, and hopeless graves.
WHEREAS, We believed that the State
legaiZed &; traffic which was opposed to
morality, religion, education, and public
orler and that its evils have not by any
means been exaggerated.
WHEREAS, We, as temperance workers,
felt convinced that we could not succeed in
the conquest of such an enemy without the
cooperation and Endorsement of the people;
therefore
Resoired, That in the expression of scuti-
ment given year ago upon this question at
the ballot-boN i'll an appeal to the Legisla-
ture of our State, we received great encour-
agement
| Resolred, That we hereby tender our thanks
to our legislators and the Chief Executive of
our State for the bill securing to us the privi-
! lege of deciding this grave question by vote
of the people.
| Resolred We congratulate the people of
our county in the overwhelming vote cast
| last Tuesday against license.
Resolced We tender our thanks to the men
who have so faithfully and persistently dis
cusSed the question through the press and
| upon the platform, and thus prepared our
| citizens to vote intelligently upon this issue
| Lesolr"d, That to the sympathy of the
| churches honest men, courageous women,
| and the favor of "A good God. we are in
| debted for the success that rids cur county
Of the great curse Of the age.

Death of Marshall J. Hunt.

\ We regret to chronicle the death of death
of Mr.. Marshall j. Hunt, which occurred
at his home, at the Rising sun, on Monday
last. He was a grandson of John Hunt, Il
wealthy and influential citizen of Darby,
Delaware county, Pa, and Il son of Joseph
Hunt He settled in this county Il number
of years ago, locating ut the Rising Sun,
where in connection with his farming ope-
rations, he had built mp quite remunera-
tive business in the manufacture Of agricul-
tural implements. He was Il natural me
chanic, and was possessed of considerable
inventive ability. His business acquant-
ance was extensive outside of his immedi-
ate community, and his integrity as Il
prompt and reliable business man was uni
versally recognized. In all the relations of
life he was an exemplary man, whose death
is loss to the community in which he
lived. He leaves one son, Mr.. Edwin Hunt,
who resided with his father, and several
daughters, two Of whom are married

A Wonderful Jersey Cow.

The seasons Test of the remarkable hui-
ter COW Euruta>, No. 2l5i, which has been
in progress for nearly a year II the farm nt
her owner, Mr.. \. b. Darling, near Ram
sey, New Jersey terminated with her milk
Of October 18th, at which time She became
practically dry, and on November 4th she
dropped calf 1t has been foreseen for
some time by tanciers of the Jersey and of
butter stock in general that her test for the
year was likely to surpaSs any previous one,
the highest instance heretofore known be
ing that of the cow Jersey Belle, of Scitu-
ate, No 1928, owned by Mr.. c. o. Films,
of Scituate, Massachusetts, that made '05
pounds OF butter in Il year. The accom-
panying table, compiled from the records
kept at Darlington farm, shows the foOtingS
for each month and total result for Euro
tas of 17S Ihs. l OF. or butter for the year.
No account was kept of the milk and bnt-
ter made during the first ten days OF her
milking period. and, as her last calf was
dropped a few days within Il year from the
date of the commencement of the test, she
the trial commenced five days earlier. The
weights of milk and butter We're taken at
each milking and churning, the butter be-
ing weighed before adding the salt, but not
until the butter-milk was thoroughly rinsed
and worked out. The texture and flavor of
the butter is very fine, its color good in
summer, but lighter than that of many ,Jer-
sey cows during the winter months. Enor-
nous as this yield seems when compared
with that of an ordinary COW, those who
have her in charge express the belief that
during the previous year she far exceeded!
it. This view is sustained by the occasional
tests for short periods that We're made al
intervals throughout the season, which
prompted her owner to have her separately
tested for a year. Her last calf is Il heiter,
being the only one she has, the former ones
being bulls 1t is by Duke of Scituate (No.
:;623,) son of Jersey Belle, of Scituate,
above mentioned. This bull and a son of
Eurotas, called Duke of Darlington (No.
2i60), are kept rs stock sources at Darling
ton farm. \ notable feature of the follow
ing statement is the richness Of the milk in
cream, the ratio being but 67-10G ts. Cless
than five quarts) of milk to the pound of
butter. The COW is Of striking appearance,
the development Of udler. milk veins, and
all the essential apparatus for the assimila-
ton of food and its conversion into milk,
being so unusual as to draw the attention
of the most ordinary observer.

The COW was, Of course. literally kept, yet
he secret of the great yield is clearly in the
blood, for it is declared that 10 ordinary
COW, however fed, can be made to accom-
plish any thing like the same results. In
winter she had all the nay she wanted, and
in addition a pail of Cruel Of bran and oat-
meal thin enough to drink, three times a
day. The amount of feed contained in this
slop is sad to have been slight and was
given rather to induce her to drink freely
than to nourish, rs grain was found to in
crease her rapidly i'll flesh. When grass
came, however, to stimulate the tactical or
gans, the grain ceased TO tend to fat to the
same extent, and she was fed three quarts
of corn meal daily in two feeds. In hot
wheat she was stabbed from the midday
sun, and fed green corn fodder while up,
with the choicest of the pasture while
turned up. Though hers is said to be the
most remarkable test, other cows closely
allied to her in blood have made surprising
yields Of butter.
