forest is made up with the stately palm,

Thirteen thousand people are said to

nese perform the great bulk of the labor

sugar planters and spectators.
F The natives (Hawalians) are people
of leisure, much given to sport and
amuse themselves chiefly by horseback
riding, horse-racing, swimming, and
fishing; the women are the
peers of the men and are en-
gagged in the same diversions.
The streets are thronged with both sex

most attractive feature of this cavelcade
to stranger, is the riding habit of the
women, which consists of a night gown,
straw that and large, jingling Mexican
spurs. These women all ride astride, and
with diligent application of the spurs,
get up considerable rate of speed.

Woyfky Brothers; There never has
been time in the history of our Govern
ment when there was such a hungering
and thirsting for knowledge and higher
standard of education among the Agri-
Culturist class as a. the present time,
which is the influence brought about by
the teachings of the Grange, where edu-
cation, in all its precepts, is one of the
fundamental principles inCulcated, in our
noble Order. Therefore it behooves us,
as a class, to utilize every available advan-
tage for our improvement, both in and
out OF Grange.
The United States Congress, in its liberal
donations of the public funds of the Ma
ton, was constrained to give our State a
stipulated amount tor the erection of an
Agricultural and Mechanical College; and
our State Legislature, being stimulated by
said action of Congress, also donated a
certain amount for the same purpose The
buildings for said institution have been
erected and the college is now in successful
| operation and bids fair to be a power for
| good in our State. We claim said insti-
tuition to be the offspring of the Grange.
| Therefore, 1--WE, as Patrons, should endeavor
| to use every effort to make that institution
| a success.
There are many noble young men OF
| our State whose circumstances will not
permit them taking a collegiate course, il
| the capacity of the college was such as to
| accommodate all. There are a large per-
centage of the young men of the country
who are interested in agriculture, connect
| ing themselves with the Grange, and we
should use every effort, as this is an era oil
progress, to stimulate in our members the
habit of reading and thinking.
The newspapers furnish the cheapest
educational facilities; how important then
it is that they should seek every opportu-
nifty to WELD an influence for good in oul
land. Therefore, be it

There seems to be some contro-
versy in regard to representation in
the State Grange. After a thorough
investigation, we are prepared to say
that all Masters and Past Masters
are members of the State Grange,
and when the representation has
been reduced, as in our State, they
only are eligible as representatives.
In case there be a Comfy Grange,
the representative shall be elected
by that body. If there be no County
Grange, then by the Masters assem-
bled in convention. If there be but
one Grange in county, it seems but
reasonable that the Master of that
Grange should attend as the repre-
sentative of the county. There is
no good reason now why our repre-
sentation should be reduced, and
the State Grange at McMinnville
should repeal that restriction as the
first act of the session.

TENNESSEE.
Annual Session of the
State Grange .
AT sEcMINNvILE, WARREN CO.,
Wednesday. august f7ih, 1881.
Fall Attendance Expected.
Tennessee Department.

The state Grange of Tennessee
will meet in McMinnville en- the
10Th of August. 1t is very natural
that the good Patrons of the State
should look forward with more than
usual interest to this meeting, for our
Grange hopes center in it to great
extent. 1t may not prove, however,
a pivotal period in the Grange his
tory of the State, though the best
interest of our organization, in the
immediate future, may turn upon it.
We are encouraged to believe the
result will be most favorable to the
cause; we have every evidence of
growing interest in favor of a re-
vival of the Order throughout the
State. This evidence does not con-
sist alone in the increasing member
ship of these Granges:which have
nevar faltered, and in the frequent
reorganization of dormant Oranges,
but in the general wish also that
comes to US from every quarter and
in the assurance of the increased
activity of the Order in every State
in the Union.
The friends of the cause around
McMinnville are preparing to give
the delegates and visitors to the
meeting, cordial reception, and we
trust the kind fraternal feeling
which prompts this will find hearty
response not only in the hearts of
the patrons of the State, but in their
action as well, and that every county
will send up representative, either
as delegate or as a friend to the
| cause.
McMinnville has a beautiful and
healthy location, healthful and in
vigorating atmosphere, attractive
scenery, and the meeting occurs al
a leisure time and besides hospita.
BILE brethren invite US, and the best
interests of our Order demand our
attention. Let us go up to the meet.
ing with matured views and plans
that it may be successful and a
profitable one.

To Much COtton-MOre Corn.

A Cuthburt, Georgia, paper says:
ave are informed that there are
people in our country who have not
had mouthful of meat for two days
some that have not had bread for
that time. Many horses and mules
are blowing that have had neither
corn, fodder nor oats for two weeks
being plowed until dinner and then
turned upon the swamp grass
and canebrakes to Craze till they are
put in the pillow again" In COM
menting on this great and unneees-
sery suffering the Augusta Constitu-
tiO1sakst says: 'If the all cotton craze
did not bring about that deplorable
condition, what did? We are salts
fed that IN no Georgia county need
there be any such restitution if food
crops were first attended to and cot
ton made surplus production In
all probability the poor horses and
mules, thus suffering for the imbe-
cility of men, are engaged in blowing
their hungry way along cotton row
The old, old story is repeated, year
after year. Next season will proba-
bly, wind up these so-called planters
and their starving animals. Farm,
ers in Georgia who get out of meat
and corn ought to quit agriculture
and try something else. The lands Of
the South thus abused will one day
be taken away from their present
proprietors and come into the posses
sion of a thriftier race. Luckily such
accounts as our Cuthbert friend gives
are exceptions to the rule in Geor
gia."

of dogs. They are getting to swarm
like locusts. You cannot pass along
the road but crowd of poor, raw

Let a freedman have one Or two dogs,
but it won't do for them to have two
or three dozen raw-boney, hungry fell
lows prowling about the country,
going mad, entering the sheep fold
and deyouring innocent lambs.
Dogs destroy every year millions Of
dollars worth of sheppard how
much do they benefit the country
about forty cents.
The time has come to cut down the
number of dogs. The country de.
mands it, the poor bleating sheep
murdered and devoured by degrees
demand it. The mailman foaming al
the mouth and dying from hydro.
phobia demands it. The people CRY
aloud for dog law, and they must
have it.
