= 'How BEST TO REMOVE Warts ?"-
This question was discussed at the
last meeting of the Conn. Board OF
Agriculture, One gentleman said a
large wart on the udder of his hei
fer prevented her being MIXED.
He was recommended to apply
grease or oil, at frequent intervals.
Boiled linseed oil has been thus
used with good results. In one
case mentioned, a number of large
warts were removed from various
parts of q horse by bathing them in
a weak solution Of potash. When
warts are small at the base, they
may be removed by string fre.
quently tightened-"tied off as it is
sometimes called. Warts are more
frequent and abundant on young
than old animals. They often dis:
appear very quickly and without
any application. The methods for
curing human warts would make a
very curious list, exhibiting many
strange and fanciful whims.-Am-
erican Agriculturist.

Road has sent an agent to Europe
to induce immigration. In conver-
sation with a prominent official of
another road recently, he made the
following suggestion, That the
State appropriate $4,000 annually
for this purpose, and levy and
collect an equal amount, pro rata,
from the railroads. AS an earnest
of his interest, he said his road
would cheerfully pay $1,000 to ST.
900 of this sum. A sufficient por-
ton of this amount thus realized
might be appropriated to the erec-
ton of a home, somewhat on the
plan Of Castle Garden in New
York, either at Charleston or Co
.umbia where immigrants could be
cared for until they had an oppor.
tunity of examining lands offered
for sale, and selecting permanent
homes, OF until they could procure
employment. This would bring
them to our doors, in contact with
our people, and false impressions
would be obliterated from thei,
minds. They would settle in dife
rent portions of the State, engage
in various pursuits, and would exert
a healthy influence in our material
advancement. The tide of immigra,
tion once turned in this direction,
we would in a short time have nc
difficulty in disposing of every sur,
plus acre Of land, and the balance
would be greatly enhanced in value
factories and railroads would be
built, and the immense water power
Of the State now idle would be
yielding a large revenue.
The last Legislature made the
initiatory movement by an Act
exempting immigrants from taxa
ton for a period of five years. This
will lessen their expenses until they
are, fairly started in their Lew
homes. This action by the repre-
sentatives of the people shows also
the liberal spirit entertained to.
wards those who are willing to To-
cate in the State, and refutes the
charge so often made-never sub.
stantiated-that foreigners would
not be welcomed in South Carolina.
The immigration to the United
States for the past year has been
larger than ever known before, and
yet few have come South-thelr
failure to do so is owing, in great
part, to our own neglect to inform
them Of OF; pdpeements.
IF any Of the counties will act
upon the suggestions herein con
tanned, the Commissioner will gladly
give all the aid in his power to
further their efforts.

WARNER MILLER, better known as
" Wood-Pulp Miller,'' was elected
United States Senator by the New York
Legislature on Saturday, to succeed
7. c. Platt, for the term ending i'll
1887. The new senator is only imed-
ocre sort of man who owns a wood
pulp factory, and who, in whatever po-
sition he is placed, looks closely after
the interests Of wood-pulp in general,
and Wood-Pulp Miller in particular.
Besides owning a wood-pulp factory,
he owns jointly with another Republi-
can Congressman patent for the max
ing of woOd-pulp, and they virtually
have monopoly Of this profitable bus
mess. When, few months ago, the
newspapers Of the country united in pc
titiOning Congress to reduce the duties
on the materials used in the manufac-
ture of printing paper, WoOd-pulp Mil
Ter led the opposition to the movement,
and by ways that are a little cloudy
and tricks known only to professional
lobbyists, succeeded in preventing the
reduction asked for Every printing
Office in the country suffered, but Wood
Pulp Miller made money. He used his
influence, while member Of Congress,
to defeat measure of public benefit
for his own private gain. And yet he
was reelected to Congress by the Repub-
licans and now takes seat in the
Senate. Whatever may come of Wood
pulp Miller's election, at least the
wood-pulp interests of Wood-Pulp Mil
leF are safe,

BILLY THE KID the daring des-
perado who for months has been ter
ror in New Mexico, and a few of whose
murderous exploits are recounted this
week in another column of the TRAN
SCRIPT, has at last, as they say out in
that country, gone over the range. -
He fell Saturday last, shot through the
heart at the hands of Sheriff Pat Gar
rett. This officer came up with him at
Sumner and shot him down without
warning as he entered the house of a
stockman in search of meat for his
supper. This may be considered in the
East as a summary way Of bringing a
criminal to justice, but Garrett perhaps
thought the only certain way to arrest
the 6 Kid was to shoot him first. The
sheriff received the reward Of $500 from
the Territory, and the people, rejoicing
in delivery from the desperado's terro-
ism, have made up for him purse of
5000 more. Billy was a beardless
youth, scarce twenty-one years of age,
and one can hardly realize how he
could have pursued such heightened
course of crime without being appre-
hended. His exploits read like chap
ter from a dime novel.
Middletown transcript., 1881-07-22

The CYCLONE by which the pros
porous town of New Ulm, Minnesota,
was swept almost out of existence on
Saturday last, seems to have been one
of the most terrible wind-stOrms that
has ever been experienced in the West,
where great wind-storms are by no
means unfrequent. The devastation
wrought by it is graphically described
in another column. 1t is quite safe to
say that Eastern people who lament
the poverty of their soil and think of the
West and Northwest as a farmers
paradise, will change their minds lit
tie when they have read of the havoc
done by this cyclone, and similar storms
that have already destroyed thousands
of acres of growing crops and hundreds
Of buildings this season. There may
be some drawbacks in the East, and the
opportunities for getting rich may be
fewer and farther between, but when
one once comes to own a house he can
rest comparatively easy in the assurance
that it will never be blown over into an
adjoining county.
