A STARTLING SCANDAL.
Allegation of C0rruptisn in tn,
 Election of 8 Senator.

The "Sun" says that a special from Madison, Wis, states it ia openly charged by anti-Cameron- ites that frauds were perpetrated, and Cameron's election was the result of both conspiracy and wholesale bribery. It was dis. covered to-day that a member of the Assembly had raised 8 $500 mortgage on bis homestead with out any visible means of getting money. Others were equally flush. The excitement over the matter is intense, and State Senators McKelly, Milsy and others are moving for an investigation of the charges. It is said that if properly probed, 2 most startling scandal and sensation will bs un- earthed.

MIDDLE-AGED MEN,

There are many at the age of thirty sixty who are troubled with too frequent evacuation of the bladder, often accompan- jed by slight smarting or burning sensa- tion, and weakening of the system in manner the patient cannot accountfor. Or examining the urIna-y deposits ropy sed iment will often be found, and sometimes small particles of albumen will appear, cI tkc color will be of a thin milkish hue again changing to dark and torpid ap pearance. There are many men who die of this difficulty ignorant of the cause which is the second stage of seminal weak ness. Dr. s. will guarantee perfect cure in all such cases, and healthy restor- -.tlon of the genito urinary organs.

Some faint idea Of the business
done may be gathered from the fact
that the St Louis, Iron Mountain d
Southern road will ship on an average
sixty ear loads Of freight per day from
the middle Of this month on, and in
the item of watcrmclons alone there
are more than 1000 acres Shades
of our African brothers, think Of it!
1000 nc 'es, Of watermclons to be sent
to the st. Louis, Cincinnati, Datroit
and indianapolis markets. At a car
load 10 an acre this vast amount Of
fruit viii require 1000 cars to move
it. and | learn that contracts have
already been made with many of the
farmers at $ll0 per car, although the
price runs from $50 to $3.50 per car
during the season. As the watermelon
grows best in sandy soil not we'll fit
ted for anything else, you can well
imagine what bonanza it proves to
the thrifty farmer. Wheat, corn, po-
tatoes, timber and lumber form the
other staple exports. Two thousand
car loads of the latter have been SCI {

and the efficient and courteous super
intondent Of the road here, Mr.. w
Kerr;gun, informed me that more than
that will be sent there in the next

4 Shell Exploited by LigIItnIng.

Ricluuond lvul Whigl
On last Wednesday afternoon, dur
ing a sudden thunder storm, a light
ming bolt struck large pine tree in n
field belonging to Mr. S. q. b. Faulk-
ner, who resides about eight miles
from Richmond, in Hanover county.
At the time Mr.. Faulkner and n num-
her of hands were working near by.
The report was sharp and loud, and
shocked several OF the men. Mr..
Faulkner noticed that the tree WAS set
ON FIRE by the lightning, and sent
hands to clear away the brush to
prevent the fire spreading to his fenc-
ing. About twenty minutes after the
tree WAS struck another loud and deaf
ching report was heard in the tree,
aud on examination it was ascertained
that the fire had communicated with
a shell which was lodged in the tree
during the war. The tree was some
what shattered from the cxplosion IF,
his old companion, and the bushes
near by were cut down 10y the irag-
ncnis. No one knew of the shell le-
~ in the tree. This is a most singu-
ar occurrence, and probably the first
sherc 20 shell was exploded by light /

What CommissIoner Hawkins Says
About Them.

IN his monthly bulletin Of farm
and residences for sale in Tennessee,
just from the press. Commissioner
Hawkins says in the Introductory.
The diver-ities If soil, with lis ,ary-
ing altitude, give toTenne@eee Il wide
climatic range and greatly diversi-
fed fora. Her forests arc magnif-
cent IN extent aud grand in their pro
duets. Her woods contain giants,
which measure seven or eight feet in
diameter aud rise to the height of
more than Il hundred feet. Her vari-
cites of timber are almost endless.
More than fifty varieties have been
recognized. Besides these we have
cedar, hemlock, pine, poplar, beech,
hickory, maple, walnut, birch, syca-
more, chestnut, cottonwood, elm, ash,
cherry, buckeye, gum, holly, persim-
mon, sassafras. dogwood, and many
other varieties.
"Of indigenous vegetable products
we have endless variety. Our mouI :
tains and valleys are clothed with sue
culent grasses, upon which herbivor-
Gus animals riot for nine months in the
year in mineral wealth Tennessee is
unsurpassed Her coal measures oc-
cupy alt area Of 800 square miles.
Rich deposits Of iron ore are found in
all sections of the State Zine and
copper have been probably mined,
and gold, silver, lead, manganese, and
many other ores and minerals are
found
'Limestone OF excellent quality for
building purposes and for the manu-
facture of lime and cement is abund
ant. The marbles of Tennessee are
eagerly sought after, and their supe-
rior excellence and beauty are every
where acknowledged. In fact nothing
but their great abundance prevents
them from being regarded as precious.
The mineral wealth alone Of Ten
nessee would, if developed, make her
an opulent State; but when we add to
this the riches Of her forests aud her
great capacity for manufacturing in
dustries, who shall place limit to her
wealth?
! For those WHO would seek homes in
/ Tennessee the present is the golden
opportunity. O;d things are rapidly
passing away, and progress is plainly
written upon everything around Us.
New enterprises are springing up; new
industries are budding into life; large
amounts Of capital are being invested
in mining and in manufacturing, Civ
ing promise Of handsome returns. The
agriculturists are leaving the old ruts
and forsaking the old system which
required every farmer to own an es
tate, baronial in its extent For thi,
reason lands are now offered for sal,
which formerly could not have beer
, bought. A. w. HAWKINS.

ties, Mines and Immigration.

Cows AND Mix Two COWS this
summer suddenly failed ins giving lis
milk. They refused to eat green
stalks and did not take kindly to the
grass. We gave them plenty of bran
and little cornmeal in their drink,
and they Immediately gave a good
supply OF milk.
LIQUID MAEURE. Chinese and
Japanese excel all other nations in the
culture Of early vegetables. This
arises from the fact that they use only
liquid manwes; hence the growth #
the plant is most rapid, and, as Il nat
ural consequence, the vegetables are
very brittle and tender. Lettuce and
radishes they force rapidly, giving
the plants sprinkii1g once day.
Tobacco and tea plants are also
treated in like manner.

Potato Growing under Straw or Bagasse

Potato Growing under Straw or Bagasse
1t IS not generally known that the
Irish potato may be grown successfully
either under straw or bagasse, and
when produced in that manner re
quircs no cultivation at all. The soil
should be well plowed, narrowed and
fertilized, the seed placed upon the
ground and covered lightly with earth;
afterwards straw or a similar material,
such as bagasse, thrown over the seed
at a. depth of from four to six inches.
BY This method no cultivation is re-
quired, the mulch keeping the soil
clean and cool. When dug-which
issimply done byremoying the straw
the tubcrs viii be found lying iu,me-
diately upon the surface, from which
they can be trausferred to the baskets
without any labor at all. This is no
new idea, but one that has been prac-
ticed for many years by farmers in
the vicinity of Covington, St Tam
many parish and elsewhere
