Origin of the Tomato.
New York Times.f

Many Americans think that the tomato
nov In season, originated in this country be-
cause it is so freely used here, and that it has
become quite recently an article Of food.
The origin of the vegetable, or fruit, es some
claim that it is, is not positively ascertained,
though there is reason to believe that it was
first found in South America. and that it
was cultivated centuries ago in Mexico and
Peru. Several varieties were known in
England toward the close of the sixteenth
century. and Gerard, the surgeon and bota-
nIst. speaks of it, we think, In bis History
of Plants" having himself introduced it
into the Kingdom as an exotic. Dodoens,
the Netherla1d herbalIst, mentions
the tomato az early as 1888
as a vegetable to be eaten with pepper, salt,
aud oil. Ii belongs to the nightshade family,
and was used IL cooking by the Malays more
than a century and a half since. 1t Is ex-
tensively raised in Southern Italy, and en-
ployed there as an accompaniment to nearly
every dish, particularly to macaroni But
is it commonly eaten, as IL is here, separately
and in quantities In England il is spar
ingly produced, requiring hot bed in the
spring, and is in consequence high priced.
The Italians formerly called 1t golden apple,
and now call it love apple, as it was once
designated In this country. The appear
ance of the tomato on the table has greatly
increased in Europe within few years; but
in no land Is it a regular dish-much as it Is
used for a sauce abIoad-ss In the United
States, where it is also picked, preserved,
and confected.

ADVICE TO A SPOTTED CANDIDATE.

Look well before you leap, De 6olyer G.i
Think OF the matter calmly twice or thrice,
At present you are measureably free;
Accept and you are fastened IN a vice.
AS Senator your course at last is clear;
AS President you can not hope to shine;
Now, taxing prudent counsel Of your fear,
You should regretfully decline.
This for your party may be rather bad,
But wherefore made they such grand mis-
take?
You know the act was nothing less than mad
That chose you, In the City on the Lake.
The prospect, as you see, is rather blue,
On honest ways the people are intent,
And they are not electing men like you,
Nor do they mean to make you President.
Therefore, you well may take TN Is kind advice,
And look the future squarely In the face,
Think Of the matter calmly, twice or thrice,
And save your party friends the last disgrace.

DISCOUNTED RADICALS.

''No sniveling Hypocrite Like Rutherford
b. Hayes Can Ever Drive Me Out of the
Republican Party
Especial to the Cincinnati Commercial
PITTsBURG, Pa, July 6.-Again the Repub
Iican camp in Western Pennsylvania is SET
in turmoil The appointment CT VIM. A .
Stone to be United States District Attorney
for the Western District of Pennsylvania, in
place of II. II. Mccormick, has created a
great deal Of bad feeling sg ainst the Admin
lstration. The place was promised to Nc
Cormick, and Attorney General Dsvens has
been workIng for him. Some time ago Judge
Williams, OF 1iogi, friend Ct Hayes, wanted
to be judge in this District, but the place
was gwen to M. w. Acheson, Pittsburg
man. As Stone is Williams broiher-in-Iaw
1T is said that trade was made on the two
places. Mccormick was at one time Speaker
OF the Pennsylvania House Of Represents
tives, and is one of the most Influential Re-
publicaDs in the Western end CT the State.
Mr.. Mccormick said last night, There is
no doubt that il is a blow by John Sherman
and Hayes at Garfield. They want to de-
teat Garfield, and they think they can
accomplish this by striking d)wn the Grant
men throughout the country, and thus dis
gushing them. They are particularly
anxious to offend the Grant men in Penn
sylvanis, and to lose the Stste to the party
This policy will not do" said Mr.. McCor-
mick, theoretically. No sniveling hypo-
critic like Rutherford B Hayes can ever
drive me out of the Republican party
Ny allegiance to my party will be as firm
now Gs it ever was. No man in this coun-
try worked barber to elect Hayes than
l did, but he has rewarded me as all hypo-
critics reward those who work for them.
Hayes and Sherman are trying the same
plan in Collector Raum's case. They want
to have the Grant men dissatisfied, and let
the Democrats carry Illinois, or they would
not dare move in the case just before Pres
idential election"
Then you think Sherman and Hayes are
trying to throw Pennsylvania against Gar
6eld?'
Il do. This looks very much like il, and
there have been many instances where they
have shown q similar desire"
What do you think OF Mr.. Stones abil-
ity?'
Il think as many of US do around here,
that he is an imbecile. He is not much of a
LAWYER"

they were of q reddish brown color, with
brown, and sometimes black, spots, which
were considered by many as an evidence
that they bad cross with the wild hog. But
on the introduction into England OF the
Chinese hogs they were crossed on the old
Berkshire breed. and the crosses were again
crossed with the Essex. Richard Ashley,
Esq Of Oldstone Hall, was the first TO take
up the Improvement of tue breed, and after
him Lord Darlington continued it. Mr..
Sadler then obtained some OF the stock from
Larrington's herd. and be continued the
improvement until now. For bacon, hams
and shoulders, there is no doubt the Berk-
shire is unsurpassed by any other breed.
Two of this breed. owned by Mr.. Sadler,
weighed at seven months 240 pounds each
the average weight when ready to kill is
about 400 pounds
This breed of hogs exhibits in q most re-
markable manner the power and skill OF
man in modelling the form and coloriDg the
hair OF the animals, and even prescribing
limits 70 the white hairs, and almost re-
stricting the numbers. The color of the
original breed We have alreody given. Now
IL is entirely changed, and is black with four
white feet, q little white on It's nose, and
few white hairs behind each shoulder. This
is the painting which the artist breeder has
produced, and these characteristics are SO
permanent, and such is the power OF the
animal to transmit these peculiaritles 70 It's
progeny, that no pig would be considered
pure bred that produced any progeny vary
ing from this description. One black foot
and three white feet would not be accepted
as pure bred. An absence of white hairs on
the nose shoulder, or a patch of white
hairs in any other place, would BE- an evil
dence of impurity OF blood. The curers of
hams prefer this breed to any other.
The improved Berkshires were introduced
into this country in 1882, and in half dczen
years from that time they were found il
nearly every State in the Union. And the
color and form of the fat hogs we see in
transit from West 10 East show Us to what
an extent it has been crossed upon other
breeds. As bacon hog it will be of great
value, and as one OF its characteristics is TO
produce less OF fat and more lean meat, Will
also give it prominence for this purpose.
But the remarkable quality OF this breed is
Its uniformity of structure. 1t is not heavy
shouldered and light BANNED. but il is
square built. 1t is said that well built hog
will fill and exact parallelogram. the top line
running along its back and the lower line
along its belly showing its length is just
double its depth. The sows make good
mothers, and are fairly prolific. Colorpho-
bia, however, is not entirely extinct, and
there are some who would prefer to have
entirely white animals.

HANCOCK AT FORT HARRISON.

An Confederate sharpshooter's Fourteen
Shots at Him as He Led His Men to Vic
tory.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, July In the County
OF Putnam, in this State, lives now an old
soldier who was gallant member of Com
pany X, Seventeenth Tennessee Infantry,
Q. s. A. His name is Stewart. He relates q
thrilling incident of the late unpleasant
ness," in which he played most conspicu-
Gus part on the one side, while General Han
cock was on the other.
At the taking of Fort Harrison in 1864,
Stewart was stationed at point IN or rear
the fort, from which he couid distinctly
witness the movements of the Federals, and
especially the actions of General Hancock,
who was calamity leading his men to vic
tory. His large 6gurs could be plainly
seen as he rode up and down the lire
giving orders to his men, as he had
done on many an occasion before. Stewart s
eye was kept on the General until he ap-
preached within a distance of 800 yards of
where Stewart was stationed d, when it occurred
to the latter that no better time would be
presented 10 cripple an army on the field by
emptying the saddle of its commanding off,
Ger than this; so, without knowing who the
officer was at the time, be fred. From the
the point where he was thus stationed he
fired fourteen successive shots at the distin-
guished General all of which were without
effect Stewart says he continued TO fire
until his ammunition gave out. aud that
when his gun was discharged the last time
the General was not over fifty yards from
him. He was, after the capture, informed
who 1t was he had but a short time before
made target of.
Stewart recalls the story of Washington al
Braddock's defeat and the Indian who fred
at the heroic Virginian sgain and again, and
who then threw down his gun, exclaiming,
HE has a charmed lifel' Stewart firmly
believes that some higher power saved the
Union General. he will vote for Hancock.

The Grain Export Trade.
New Hampshii Q Patriot

shown in the TACT that America has SO devel-
oped her facilities as to underbid even the
Russians in laying down wheat at Odessa
itself. This causes the Russians to complain
sbout as much as the English would do il
America should begin to export coal to
Newcastle. for Odessa has long been the
principal depot of the grain trade Of Europe.
Wheat is as plenty as dirt in the interior of
Russia but the freights charged by rail way
and Black Sea steamship lines are so Excess
slve that merchants find 1t cheaper to bring
grain from America. The cost in Odessa of
bringing grain from the car to the xport quay
is heavier than that Of its carriage from

The Exhaustion of Soils.

Germantown Telegraph
1t is common to hear people in the far
West boast that they can take crop after
crop from their virgin soils for several sue
cessive years without impalring the general
fertility thereof. This Is regarded as some
thing marvellous and as something which
could not occur in any other part of the
world. 1t is, however, clear that this repre-
sentation has been overdrawn. Oaly in the
bottoms, such Muskingum and Scloto In
Ohio, is there any great degree OF psmanence
IN this continual Graphing, and this chiefly
from the fact that fertiliz,ng agents are
brought down from the high lands about
them. In the fiat lands the stability Of the
great richness Is little more than in the
lands Of the older States. In Ohio espec-
tally lands once of superior quality
for corn and wheat have become so run
down that they are given over to sheep
walks, as being the only sure thing
at least the surest return that can be made
from the land We can do nearly as much
here in the East. We have known land near
Philadelphia which has been under culture
for perhaps a hundred years, produce corn
six successive years in fsir quantity, with no
artificial aid but little "shovelngs," which
means rich earth scrsped together here and
there aud put in the hills when the corn is
planted. The fact lie, land is pretty much
the same the world over in its adaptation to
certain crops When things are forced to
grow In land not well suited 70 their growth
they soon fail, even when well cared for; but
when they find their natural element no
great amount OF artificial aid is required to
keep the land IN good condition for
years. Even in the older countries of
Europe where land has been in cultivation
for 8 thousand ears, has this principle been
found to hold good Experiments have been
made with some of the cereals-frst select
ing land known to be favorable TO some
qnoafal thing and than hu m
ally lightly with material known to be favor
able to the plant Crop after crop has been
taken tor twenty years, and the last has
been as good as the first. Yet, with all these
facts, we often read of the question being
discussed, will soils wear out? We believe
there ir no such thing in nature. Some Of
these elements will, of course, be much di .
minished, and will need an occasional re-
plenishing; but we would not suppose our
digestive organs had worn out because we
feel hungry, and neither in any sensible
light can we suppose soil will wear out.

Breeding Thoroughbred Stock.
TAmerfcan A0rfculturist for July. I

Aswe were a short time ago looking over
a fine herd of thoroughbred stock, upon
farm which we visited, while we did not
covet il, we thought that no one, as he
looked over these fnely-proportioned ami
mels. could refrain from wishing to have
similar herd for himself. There is charm
in the whole matter of stock-breedIDg, and
especially so if one has fne animals at the
start, and their best points are made more
fixed and prominent as the generations
pass. But while looking at these. animals
and listening to the explanation OF this and
that point of excellence, the thought natur-
ally suggested itself, is not this breeding OF
pure bloods, with the care and nicely here
manifest, a sort of fancy farming that only
few can hope to indulge in? What capital
Is invested? A thousand or 81 500, which
in the breeders view is not much, for
COW, is faI beyond the ability of the aver
age farmer. In order to succeed as a good
breeder of thoroughbred stock, the first re-
quisite seems to be good bank account, and
the second clear idea Of what one is breed
ing for-an end toward which all his skill
for he must be skilltul-Inust tend. The
proportion of men having the requisites for
breeders OF thoroughbred stock is small; and
anyone who contemplstes the task should at
the outset be sure that he possesses them.
We would not discourage anyone from IN
dertaking the rearing of a herd Of pure
FLOODED animals, but simply caution against
going into 1t without thorough preparation
for the task. n is only when entered into
intelligently and with the requisite capital
that it is made to pay-and even then it can
be remuneratIve only after some years
of constant outgo with no correspond
ing incon The breeding o. pure-bred
animals is one of the most important depart
ments of agriculture, for upon the existence
and growth of such herds does the improve
ment of farm stock in general largely
depend. If all our pure blood animals were
taken from US. or rather, il they were scat
tered broadcast over the country, the work
of centuries would be uRdone, but so long as
these animals are kept in herds, with
judicious outflow of the pure blood to be
mingled with the common stock Of the coun-
try, they contribute largely to the general
good by gradually advancing the average
grade of our farm animals. 1t Is well that
there are men Of sufficient means, combined
with a love for improved live stock who
will keep herds of thoroughbreds, for they
can be kept pure only with great care and
often at great expense. Whatever may be
their motives in building up fine herds, such
persons can not we'll avoid being public ben
efactors, and we are glad to believe that
there are some sufficiently public spirited
who do it mainly because 1t will couduce to
the general g Cd.

What the Great Political Economist Thinks
lFrom au interview with David a. wells

From an interview with David A. Wells.l
I'm inclined to think it's powerful ticket
1t is a ticket which seems destined to band
together the soldier element of the whole
country. Even the South responds TO it in
the Convention by praising Hancock's mill
tary renown. Somehow or other the soldier
sentiment doesn't grow dim. 1t hardly will
at all during this generation, aud a name
that appeals so strongly to that sentiment as
Hsncock's seems bound to gather strength
as the campaign goes on. At the same time
there is probably not a name among those of
military men in the United States more
likely to pacate those who have commended
for purely civil, not military, adninistra-
lion. Hancock's instant concession to the
Constitution and the civil power at the close
of the war in louisiana marked him as
patriot and the very opposite of Caesar.
Evidently his election would instantly stop
the waving of the "bloodv shirt"
