-Governor McEnery has given
W.P. Kellogg d certificate OF his
election to Congress from this Dis
trict. A great deal of nonsense has
been printed ii the papers concern
ing the action of the Governor in
holding back the certificate until a
charge of non eligibility on account
OF residence vas examined into.
The Governor did just what any
sensible officer would have done.
By the way, the amount of gush
and advice that the Republican pa
pers are now exhibiting and giving
is wonderful. They are full of
wrath because the officers in Missls
sippi did not go behind the returns
and give Chalmers the certificate,
whom they have worshipped with
a love surprising that of woman,
for the last 20 years, but they have
nothing to say about the same acts
committed in Ohio and West Virgi
MA by their own party. Manning
will not accept his certificate in
Mississippi, but you can bet your
bottom dollar that the Republicans
counted in by the same causes as
Manning was, will not fail to claim
their places from the Districts in
Ohio and West Virginia in which
they were fairly beaten by their
Democratic opponents.
The most stupendous piece of i'm
pertinence Of the nineteenth centu
~ is found to day in the Republi
can papers, in their effort to give
advice to the Democrats in order
that they may retain supremacy.
The idea of a Republican newspa
per offering advice to the Democrat
ic party is decidedly rich. 1t re
minds one of a convict going into a
penitentiary preaching morality
and honesty.

An article is going the round
Of the newspapers entitled s'The
Polignac Scandal in Paris" in which
it is said that a young man designa
ted as Count Polignac has attempt
ed to commit the crime of Arson
for which he is now in prison.
About this scion of a dead nobil
ity we know nothing aud care little.
But the article goes on to say in
substance that he is an illegitimate
son of Gen. Polignac OF the Confed
crate States Army, and relates the
feats Of that general i'll tho said ar
my that would be news to him
should he ever read the articles
now atoat. The reputed mother of
this fiery young man is the Coun
tess de Brona who Gays that she
was married to Prince or General
Polignac and that she followed him
Gin his career us a soldier Cf for
tune in the Southern army during
the secession war;"
The writer of this article served
in the same Division with General
Polignac for two years, was a mem
Der of his staff for several months
and has no hesitation in asserting
that he was neither accompanied
nor followed by any countess or
any woman.
The stories are so mixed up
with the various Polignacs that the
fabricator Of them was evidently
bewildered and oblivions of the pre-
cepts Ut the ninth commandment.
Gen. Polignac returned to France
vas subsequently married and still
resides there in all probability.
This young houseburner is one Of
the family, but we do not believe
that he is the son Of the General.

Green ManurinR.

DR.. Alfred l.. Kennedy, chemist
and geologist Of the State Agricul.
tural Society, is an earnest advocate
Of increasing the fertility Of the soil
by plowing under green crops; and
while he gives red clover credit for
being admirably adapted to his use,
hc seems To think that the YciLoD
Lupin, now much grown in Europe
for the purpose, is 10 be preferred,
and gives the following reasons:
"Nitrogen in the soil is Indispensable
TO our crops. Applied TO them, as It IS
in the form OF nitrate Of soda and Per.
uvian guano, it is the most costly Of
chemical fertilizers. The plant which,
like the yellow lupin, gathers 1t and
stores it up, must under certain condi.
tions, be the most valuable Of green
manures. 1t is a vigorous grower, and
IT natures in one season. Here, a. well
az in Europe, il sttaIns the height OF
over two feet, sending down its strong
tap.root 10 An equal distance, penetrai.
ing the subsoil, and bringing 20 the sur.
face iertilizing agents lying below the
reach Of the plow. TO these qualities
it adds the yet more valuable one OF
producing a foliage more than eleven
and three quatcrs per cent. tlL7gI richer
in nitrogen than the red clover
DR.. X. then adds a plan for sim.
pie experiment to determine the rcla-
tive value Of these two plants for
this purpose, which We do not pub
lish because before this could meet
the eyes Of our readers it would be
too late to make proper arrange
ments for it. We regret that We did
not receive the Doctors paper in
time, but will hold it over for future
use, and in the meantime counsel
farmers to keep an eye open for such
further information in regard 70 the
matter as may be obtainable.

THERE is nothing like a pasture
for breeding sows TO run in. All OF
our sows which lost their pigs last
Spring while confined in pens, have
had large litters of fine, strong pigs.
They bad nothing to eat but Orchard
Grass and clover, and helped them
selves to spring water in the field.
They slept under the trees and by
the side of the fences, and were let
alone until few days before pigging,
when they were put into pen and
given little straw for bed. One
had her little family under tree, and
did well. If the field was large
enough and the weather was good,
sows might safely be LEFT out for the
young 10 be born.-Cor. Of Raral

Hungarian Grass.

irving u. Co,t.
Many farmers who have expert
enccd two successive seasons Of al
most unparalleled drouth. are inquiring
as 70 what can be sown 10 take the
place Of our customary clover and
timothy, SO essential for hay supply
and pasturagc, as well as for green
manuring for q successful growth Of
winter wheat. This question has
been answered by many in the sowing
of corn, German mi!let, hungarian
grass. etc. and where grown especi-
ally FOR fodder crop, and thorough
ly tested 80 as 10 develop It's true
merits, the Hungarian is still justly
entitled 10 the favors with which 10
has been received in years past. Al
though more than two decades have
passed since its introduction TO this
country comparatively few farmers
have personal knowledge Of its value
owing, perhaps, to a prejudice formed
by unfavorablc reports occasionally
published relative 10 injurious effects
on feed % stock, especially horses.
4 Connecticut correspondent, Mr.. i.
c. Arnold, recently reporting his FIRST
experience, of the past year, says:
"While it was recognized by an
acquaintance, who cautioned me
against feeding it to horses without
first threshing out the seed, rs he had
known at the West high feeding to
founder horses, though a good feed
when threshed, but perfectly safe,
threshcd or not, for cattle. ] cut
Just as the earliest heads commenced
turning yield, two and one-half tons
per acre. / commenced feeding free
lv TO my horses as soon as it was in
the barn, and have not only seen no
unfayorable results from it, but they
seem TO like it as well as any other
hay / have ever feed, but less guam
tity seems TO answer the same pur-
pose.'
My own second years experience
would be additional proof OF the high
estimate of the worth of this grass,
though for a fodder crop / would rec
ommend cutting it when fairly head
ed, just before, IL possible, any of the
first heads begin TO turn. Properly
cured, and placed beside the best tim
othy hay, it will be preferred every
time by cattle and horses. With
perfect confidence | would again rec
ommend this grass TO all who are fear
ful Of a short supply of fodder the
coming winter, and for green manur-
ing; the results have fully met the
expectation of those who have tested
it. Sow about three pecks per acre,
soon after corn planting, on any land
suitable for usual spring crop; cut
and cure Is customary in securing
clover hay, and my word for Its sat
isfaction experienced in witnessing
the avidity with which it is eaten by
all farm stock will amply repay you
for the trial.

brancc because hc is useless until he
arrives at suitable age for work,
but it really cost very little, compared
with hls value, to raise q colt When
the period arrives at which the colt
can do service the balance sheet will
show in his favor. for young horses al.
way command good prices il they are
sound and well broken. One Of the
difficulties in the way is the incum.
brance placed on the dam, which in
terfcrcs with her usefulness on the
farm, especially If the colt is foalcd
during the carly part Of the spring.
Some farmers have their colts foalcd
in the fall, but this is open 70 two Oh.
ieciions. In the first place, spring is
the natural time, for then the grass is
beginning TO grow. and nature seems
TO have provided that most animals
should bring forth their young in n
season beyond the reach of severe
cold and with sufficient time to grow
and be prepared for the following
winter. Again, when colt Is foalcd
in the fall he must pass through a
period Of several months confinement
in the stable, without exercise, or else
be more or less chilled with cold from
time 70 time. Should this happen,
the effect OF any bad treatment will
be aftcrwaTd manifested, and no
amount OF attention can again elevate
the colt to that degree of hardness
and soundness of body that naturally
belong to spring colt. Besides, a
colt foaled in the spring will outgrow
one foaled in the fall. An objection
TO spring colts may bc overcome by
ploughing in the fall, or keeping the
brood mares for very light work,
with the colts at liberty TO accom-
pany them always. A colt needs but
very little feeding if the pasture is
good and there is water running
through it. He needs then only
small feed Of oats at night mo
corn-and If he is given hay it Is not
necessary 10 give him full ration.
What he will consume from the barn
will be one-third his value when he is
three years old, and if he is we'll bred
the gain Is greater. When farmer
raises his horses, he knows their
disposition constitution nnd capacity.
1t is the proper way to get good,
sound, seryicable horses on the farm.
