The opposition to THE PATRON in this State
seems to be more active and vindictive than
ever, and this opposition is not confined to
merchants, lawyers and professional politi-
clans, but it comes from a certain class of
planters and members of the Order. We hear
of a Lecturer of Grange, ,eRo Is a la,cver,
depreefating the paper, and urging Patrons
not to subscribe for 1t, and at meeting at
Webster, in Winston county. in this State,
the other day person said that THR PATRON
was Radical sheet when it was published at
Memphis in 1877 rs. 1t is unnecessary for
us to say that such a charge is an infamous
and malicious falsehood. We hope that when
such charges are made in future that some
Patron will demand the proof. We are not
at all concerned about opposition of this kind
u the true members have the will and the
spirit to stand up for the paper.

Worthy Master Darden in La.
fRYPtte,

Editor Patron: Worthy Master Oar
den has come and gone, leaving lasting
impressions on the members of the Order
in this county. a number of the mem
bers of Woodson's Ridge Grange met
Bro. Darden at Graham's Mill, Friday
morning June goth, and the crowd that
had assembled there to hear him was so
large that he had to address them in the
open air. He made one OF his telling
speeches, after which we had sumptuous
dinner, prepared by the ladies of that
community, for this they are noted. AT
ter dinner we had the pleasure of seeing
Bro. Darden reorganize Puss Cuss
Grange, with Bros. w H. Graham as
Master and c w. Hall, Secretary. AT
ter the labors of the dav were completed
the undersigned had the pleasure of riding
with Bro. Darden to the neighborhood
of Woodson's Ridge. Next morning at
O'Clock he met Woodson's Ridge Grange,
and spent an hour exemplifying the secret
work. After the Grange closed we all
went down to the Oxford camp ground
and found the hills covered with men.
women and children, awaiting the arrival
of our talented leader At II O'Clock he
was introduced to the large assembly, and
kept them spellbound for an hour and a
At"Ar IIC OCSl vi OIueT prevailed during
the day. We saw many old white headed
farmers drinking in the words of wisdom
as they fell from the speakers lips. One
young farmer told the writer that he
could listen to that man all day without
firing. A distinguished lawyer from Ok
ford got up and said publicly that he en-
dorsed all that Capt. Darden had said
After another big dinner we parted, feel
ing that it had been good for us to be
there.
Worthy Master Darden never uttered
but one sentence that we were sorry to
hear, and that was, chat he would not
canvass the State again"
WHY SO many good people remain out
side of the Grange after hearing one OF
Bro. Darden's speeches is a problem we
can not solve.

Treatment of BaIky or UnruIy
Horses,

I. Place yourself against bis
near shoulder, and with your right
hand seize the fore leg just above
the pastern joint, raise the foot az
high as you can and force it for
ward. This will, in most instances
prove effectual.
2. Stand in front of the horse
and draw his ears through your
hands two or three minutes, stroke
his nose, and lastly take him by
the head and in an encouraging
voice urge him to go forward.
3. If in single harness, and
with a two-wheeled vehicle, take
your animals head and turn him
around four or five times, keeping
the inside wheel as near as possi>
BILE in the same place.
4. Tire your steed out by re-
naming perfectly quiet until he
starts of himself. | once sat in
my cart nearly two and a half hours
in this way.
Now and then a horse is met
with that refuses to draw at all.
Put him in cart 10 a shed and
keep him there Until he walks out.
In one instance to my knowledge,
the obstinate one was thirty K
hours in the shafts before he gave
in.
If il is intended to cure a FESTIVE
horse, he must be used slowly bv
one aud the samc person, and
caught young; and let his rider or
driver bear in mind that with both
FESTIVE and nervous horses, tho
voice will prove more effectual than
the whip. Stick to your nag, if
possible, under all circumstances,
for rely upon it, if be can once get
away from you, he viii redoubIe
his efforts to do so again. Unfor-
tuuately there is always a risk in
buying one willful steed, for in
fresh hands he may revert to his
old ricks.-L london Lire StockJonr-
