THE ELECTORAL COMMISSION.
Its Secret History Likely to be Sooner
or Later Divulged.
UtiCa Herald.l

Utica Herald.l
1t is current that the Electoral Com
mission, by whose final vote the Presi-
dency was stolen from the people, has a
secret history. There exists ample
ground for the belief that at one time
the Republican Justices in the body had
decided to throw out the vote of Florida
entirely, and that one of them Bradley
reached the determination to vote to give
it to Tilden ard Hendricks. 1t has been
generally understood that Bradley as
sured Justice Clifford of his intention to
do this. Our readers, or some OF them.
may remember that, after the argu-
ments, and before any votes had been
taken, rumors appeared in Washington
correspondence to the effect that Brad
ley had confessed TO Clifford the justice
of the Democratic position, and stated
that he would vote to declare Tilden
elected. The report went SO. far as to as
sert that Bradley had written out his
opinion, and would present it when he
voted with the Democrats.
As soon as these stories leaked out the
eminent Republicans who were engineer
ing the steal visited Bradley en- 1ndsSe.
The result of their persuasion we know.
Bradley tore up his old opinion, and
wrote another in which he sprung his
historic "alinude" upon the public. AS
we have said, all this has been part of
understood history for years, but it has
never been given the weight of authori-
tative statement. AT last we are prom
ised proofs which, although posthumus,
will generally be accepted as positive.
Gov. Crittenden of Missouri, says that
Justice Clifford told him several years
ago that he had prepared complete and
detailed history Of the proceedings of the
Electoral Commission, and that it would
be published after his death, unless his
wife decided otherwise. The Justice
furthermore hinted that when the histo-
ry was published developments would
be made of a startling nature and dam
aging to regulations now good.
From another source comes the latter
statement that the volumes will very
soon be given to the public, and that
Bradley's duplicity will not only be
proved, but accounted for. We await
the appearance of the history with in
terest. The people can not know too
much of the inner history of the
Fraud.

Republicans Repent Their Bargain
with Malone.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE Republic
cans here are much disgusted with the
conduct of Malone and the other leaders
of the neutrality-suspicious. alliance in
Virginia. Malone was arrested Satur-
day to prevent his fighting a duel with
General Jubal Early, who called him a
liar and coward in recent speech.
Riddleberger, the Republican caucus
nominee for Sergeant-at-arm of the SEN
ate, disgraced himself Saturday by fight
ing two duels, one with Congressman
Wise and the other with Richmond ed
itor. In neither case was anybody hurt
and they seem to have been rather farci-
cal affairs. The Republican Senators,
however, feel no little embarrassment at
being saddled with such creatures as Ma
hone and Riddleberger, but they cannot
get rid of them, because Mahone's vote is
necessary to them, and he insists upon
the election of Riddleberger as the price
of his vote.

A NEW DISCOVERY!
Spiritualism Explained


with the learned and unlearned,
the materialist, scientist, re-
ligionists, and in tact every
BODY. is "What is Modern
Spiritualism?" Is tia verify or
is it all a humbug? Can it be
explained from a physiological
standpoint and does 1t come
under the head of Physics, or
does it come from supernatural
causes and without laws or or
der. That the phenomena ex-
lists, is beyond dispute, whether
it will ever be explained re-
mains to be seen. That some
spirits can be seen, handled
and made use of to good ad-
vantage as well as explained is
also a tact to which all drug
gists and chemists can testify
They need not be named be-
cause their name is legion.
We refer principally to those
medicines through which spirits
figure largely as restorative
agencies. Saur's Drug and
Medicine Depot harbors large
number of healing spirits which
can be purchased for a very
small sum of money and II used
according to directions will be
the means Of relieving pain and
restoring the health of the at
flicted. This same drug store
has many other things in which
it seeks to make itself useful
and to benefit mankind. The
book department furnishes the
provisions upon which hun
dreds OF brains are fed and are
thus kept alive and active. The
large stock of elegant patterns
of wall and window paper is
another medicine by which
many homes is made warm and
comfortable. Then, too, comes
the many different colored
paints which are not only a
great preservative agency, but
add to the beautiful as we'll,
tons of which is sold annually
rand which gives employment to
thousands of people. This is a
branch Of business IN which this
house also figures largely. Saur's

Small Farms.
[lfarksville Review

The French people have more ready
cash in individual possession than any
other nation in the world. tits not the
wealth Of nation that makes the peo-
pie rich, bnt it is the general diffusion
of wealth. This is the case in France.
The French are the nation of small
farmers. There are more landowners
in that country than America. The
farms are s,nall; the majority are under
twenty acres, end very large plumber
under ten. 1t may not be that this IL
not the only reason for the money
wealth of the people; they are notably
economical and thrifty. But the small
farms have something to do with it.
The farmers in some OF the eastern
counties of Penasylzapia, where the
farms are comparatively small, ca4ld
we'll compete with the French in their
possession of money wealth. Almost
every farmer has his surplus invested.
These men have habit of feeding of
cattle or a heek of sheep every winter.
They sell little grain but wheat, and
feed their fodder and coarse grain to
their stock. They make more profit to
the head Of stock then is made upon
large grazing farms, and their land is
rich and high priced, because Of the
large quantity of manure that ia made
in feeding stock. The consumption Of
meat is continually Increasing. and with
the extension Of manufactures there are
more mouths to fill every year, SO that
it is not probable the supply can ever
become excessive,

The question of licensing or not
licensing the sale of intoxicating liquors
is now being discussed and voted upon
In some Of the parishes. Passing laws
or ordinances abolishing licenses for
such purpose, will simply cut off that
source of public revenue; for, to use the
common saying, there are many ways to
kill q dog besides choking him to death
with soft butter, and when manis dying
for drink, he will have it license or no
license. Liquor is sold now without a
license. Once an old lady had grocery,
where the sale Of liquor was forbidden
by law, and she had a wooden pig made
and painted red; she charged FIVE or
ten cents for seeing this curious pig,
but she always gave drink Of whisky
for lagniape. Some small dealers now
sell bit Of candy, and give drink OF
whisky, or some tobacco for lagniape.
Laws will not stop whisky drinking !;
the reform must be in the drinker him
self. A jury of whisky drinkers will
not convict the man who let them have
the whisky, especially when it was
given to them.

How to Reep Sweet Potatoes.
William Lott in Home and Farm.l

William Lott in Home and Farm.
Sweet potatoes are easily kept if they
are dug and housed in the proper time.
They should be tried before they are
dug, by taking few from the ground
and cutting them, and throwing them
on the ground if the cut becomes hard
and dry, they are ready; if it remains
wet and sticky, they will surely rot un-
der any care You may take of them.
In connection with this will state
that there is no excuse for having small
potatoes. when one wishes to have large
ones. IL the seasons suit them, this
can be done by selecting seed from the
largest ones-those with smooth skin.

would have to be cut into many. pieces
to cook them and when cut to bake or
boil, the favor of the potato is des'

The Aesthetics.

We zee by our exchanges that there
80 new club in London called the
amstbetes. Itinvites to it's entertain
ments beauties of London-an ugly wo-
man is never admitted, and the men,
hers receive their guests standing in
striking poses against the mantel piece,
and in corners, each holding lily. They
call themselves aesthetics" because
thew worship the beautiful alone, and
their only object seems to be to pose
themselves for the admiration of people
and to inhale the fragrance of the lily,
in imitation of medieval pictures.
Isn't this worthy to be initiated I? Can
there be grander aim in life than to
lean OH mantel piece and smell lily !;
or to lean ones self in corner with
head against the wall and gaze with
lapguid sad eyes at the beauties trotting
around to see how exquisite young
man can be made by high art, laziness
and excess of refinement. Have we
any incipient aesthetics" among us 7
If so let them set to and forthwith to
study Mr.. Walter H. Pater, who has
been writing for years on the possibility
of carrying high art into every day life.
He is doubtless the leader of these
aesthetics and he tells us the active
periods of the worlds history were the
most wretched.
Repose, beauty and memory are the
only things to be desired smelling at
lilies of course is part Of the programme
and utter and entire laziness sine qua
non. You must lean languidly, never
sit or stand erect, for that is stiff. You
must rob your eyes of all expression
ave that of infinite WEAKNESS. When
you look into a beautiful face you may
gently raise your lily to your lips and
murmur something of the blessed
damozel." That's high art you know,
whereas "young lady" or "girl" are
low and vulgar expressions. It's the
greatest of pities you have to do your
attudinizing in the ugly modern cos
tune, but comfort yourself aesthetic
brother, high art will Danish the swallow
tail and high beavers and give you
something loose and graceful. Flowing
robes, chaplets Of flowers On your empty
heads, sandals on your crossed feet
and half held in your nerveless hands,
the emblem flower of your worship the
