al legislature, and he does not wish
that.
Still another difficulty, and fully as
great one as either of the other, Is
the MShoue affair. tits already seen
that tho recreant Senator can bring no
strength to the party which has pur-
chased him, and that the party will
have trouble in paying the purchase
price. With common sense which,
in view Of what has taken place dur
ing the pasttwo years, seems a miracle,
the Democratic Senators are acting to-
gether in refusing to join the Republi-
cans In the payment Of Malone. They
refuse to be party to the trade. They
are using, and, trust, will continue
to use, all their legitimate power to
keep the Republicans from making one
of Mahone's friends an officer Of the
Senate. They consented to Malone
Republican organization Of the Senate
Committee, for Committe organlZa-
tion was necessary TO q proper transac'
tion of the executive business for
which the Senate. session was called.
But the selection of a Sergeant-at-
Arms in place of the competent gen
tlemen now holding that office Is not
necessary, and so they refuse to do
anything more than attend to execu-
| tive business.
What Tilden said on the fifth Of
March-that Garfield would have the
stormiest administration In twenty
years-seems likely to turn out the
simple truth.
The pressure for foreign appoint
ments is unprecedented. Nearly every
member of Congress thinks he should
have n comfortable consulatn where
there is nothingt0 do butdraw the pay.
In the way Of would be governors OF
the territories, there are dozen ap-
plicants for each place.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington, d. c., March 25, 81.
That the aggressive Mr.. Blaine re-
ally had assurances, before entering the
Cabinet, that he should coutrol the
political affairs Of the administration,
is plain now. 1t seemed to be so as
soon as the Cabinet made up for the
most part of men of negative power
and small prominence as partizans, was
announced. Prior even to that-a
month before the inauguration-one
of Mr.. Blaine's friends told your cor
respondent that the Offer of the Secre-
taryship of State had been made, but
had not been accepted and would not
be until Blaine knew whether he was
to be buried or whether he was to be
allowed to help himself by its accept
ance. The nomination of Robertson
as collector of the port of New York,
and of VIM. Walter Phelps to an i'm
portant place abroad is what confirms
this remark of Blaine's friend. No
two men could be named, except Blaine
and aayes, who are more distasteful to
the New York Senator. If he does not
fight against their confirmation it will
be because he knows he would be: de-
feated. But as long as he remains in
public life he will be an enemy OF Gar
field. and he will only await an oppor.
tunity of making his enmlty felt.
Another embarrassing incident
which confronts the administration in
it's early days ls the contest over anex-
ira session of Congress. One is deem
ed necessary to repair the blunder of

Moth Preventive.

A correspondent of the Furniture
Gazette recommends the following rem
edy for DISCRIMINATING moths in carpets
and furniture: After some years of ex-
perience with the troublesome pests,
saws the writer, found sure prevent
i've of moths in pitch paper, the same as
roofers use. The moth will live and
grow on cayenne pepper and tobacco,
while l never could see that the use of
these articles kept the moth-miller out.
The plan for the furniture dealer or
housewife is to cut the paper in slips
and place about the room, under and
behind sofas, chairs, etc. this should he
done as early as the middle OF April,
and in warm climates earlier. If the
dealer wishes to make parlor suits moth
proof, he should place on the inside of
backs of chairs and seats small strips of
the pitch paper, and rest assured that
the miller will not select these places to
deposit eggs. 1t is the miller that is the
foundation of all the mischief.

The Value of Competitio, in Bushes.


Competitor forces every one who would
achieve the highest success in any business to
avail himself of all legitimate means to that
end. A. T. Stewart started In . small way
in selling dry goods-with increased capital,
. wider experience q buyer and q better
knowledge Of the wants and tastes of the
public enabled him to procure specially in
telligent labor. The public was well served
and he was largely benefited by his enter
prise. Look at another distinctly American
Industry; the primitive American stoves
were clumsy affairs. To-day they are every
where recognized as the best in the world
for convenience, utility and beauty. Look
at the great success of the makers Of the
CHARTER OAK STOVE! Starting in small
way in 1S47, the business gradually devel-
oped and increased. To-day it is the largest
factory in the world of its class, and brought
to st. Louis a reputation for good stove-
work which is now worldwide more than
40O, 900 CHARTER OAK STOVES being in con-
slant use, abundantly testifying to the fact
that they are well worth buying and making
the homes Of the people comfortable. (3-27)

Useful Hints for Measuring Land.

Almost every farmer has some way of
measuring land, and the most common
is to step off five PAGES for a rod, and
call sixty by sixty-five PAGES an acre.
For ordinary purposes this mode will
answer, but when the exact measure
ment of piece of land is desired, it can
not be depended upon as being accu-
rate.
A light pole just sixteen and a half
feet long is cheap and convenient
measure, but four-rod tape line is much
better.
An exact acre can be found by the fol-
lowing table of distances:
A plot of ground yards wide by y6S
yards long contains one acre.
A plot of ground 10 yards wide by 4S4
yards long contains one acre.
A plot of ground 40 yards wide by 121
yards long contains one acre.
A plot of ground so yards wide by
60 1-2 yards long contains one acre.
A plot of ground 20 yards wide by
So II yards long contains one acre.
A plot of ground 22O feet long by 1913
feet wide contains one acre.
A plot of ground 440 feet long by SO
wide contains one acre.
A plot of ground 40 feet wide by 500
feet long contains one acre.
A plot of ground 240 feet long by
1871 1-2 feet wide contains one acre.
One acre contains 100 square rods,
4,S4O square yards, or 1860 square feet.
One rod contains 1925 square yards,
572.25 square feet.
To measure corn in the crib: Multiply
length. breadth aud height together, in
feet to obtain the cubic feet. multiply
this product by four and strike off the
right figure. and the result will be the
shelled bushels, nearly.

Yes, sir-thanks. 1 was inclined

might have taken whack at the sun.

This time he went half way down
stairs and returned on tiptoe The agent
looked up and saw him in the door and
sharply queried:
"Weu?''
'Mixed up again!" pleaded the stran-
ger. "Say, want to ask you just one
more question.
"Did you ever lend a man a dollar to
help him on his way to Columbus to see
his dying wife?''
"Never! You are thinking of Old
