We would gladly see every man who has
presented his claim to Congress for damages
sustained by the late war paid, but the
chances are that our happiness will not be
for some time at least realized in this regard.
The matter of payment of these claims with
in the period of mans life is sham of Mr.
Urners. He knows as well as any body
that the chances are against our citizens, and
yet he has never divulged the improbability
to one single being we venture to assert. He
lie not bestowing all this attention and with
holding the secret without q purpose, and
that is to curry favor and make himself
popular for future political contests. He is
exerting every influence and instrument to
excite our people to a computation of their
losses and a belief in their reclamation, to
result in disappointment and discomfort.
He has presented another batch this week
from Western Maryland.

In accordance with his previously an
nounced intention Senator German on Tues
day last rendered his resignation Of the
presidency of the Chesapeake and Ohio
canal to the stockholders, but the latter re-.
fused to consider it until the annual meeting
in June next Mr.. German has displayed
marked ability in the great work requisite
to modernize and increase the capacity of
the canal, and his retirement will be loss
to the State and the stockholders; but it is
understood that his many other duties make
the discharge of those of this presidency
very burdensome, and that he would have
resigned long ago had it not been necessary
for him to remain to vindicate his manage
ment from wanton and groundless attack
Under the circumstances, then, we presume
that he will insist on his resignation being
accepted at the annual meeting TO which its
consideration was postponed.

Two successive hard years, combined
with ruinous rates of interest. are often
sufficient to over whelm him. The Jews
seize his land and sell it out in small
parcels at high prices, ~ contiguous
owners are anxious to enlarge their
plots. Some Of the meanest specimens
of mankind are found among these
village Jews, and their severity often
causes outbreaks against them. The
landed classes sympathize with the
peasants in th.Ir difficulties, and this
explains ia n measure the present agi-
tation against the Jews in Germany
Even Bismarck is said to be bitterly
opposed to the Jews; his sympathies
are with the landed aristocracy, and he
dislikes the rise to power of the mer-
camille and money-lending classes, of
which the Jews are the most conspicu-
Gus examples. c. was so deeply in
volved in a serious outrage committed
on the property of an obnoxious Jew
that he was forced to leave the village
He confessed that his acts were foolish,
but pleaded in excuse the loss Of land
and heme by the peasant with whom
he was staying. The Jew had in
duced the peasant to enlarge his farm
by buying lands on loans at excessive
interest, A bad year followed and the
peasant was obliged to borrow more
money. The jew, in lending, forced
peasant to take one-third of the loan
in spirits. The natural nsequences
followed; the peasant drank too much;
his crops were poor; his interest was
not paid, and his land was seized by
the Jow. The Jews are harsh hut
eilectual instrument of destroying the
system of ''small.lot farming" they
bring the owners of "lot-farms" into
their power, and then sell the lands to
those whose farms are in larger lots,
and who are therefore prosperous.
Historical reasons have caused the
small-lot system to exist only among
the rich lands of Germany; and it has
consequently never been in vogue in
Northern Germany. Nevertheless, the

UnlnckY People.

A genuinely unlucky man will entail
as much misery upon those who are
dependent upon or associated with
him, as genuinely wicked one. They
can never be relied upon. Their spec
ulations turn out Ill when those of
stupider men succeed. Their inven-
tons are just little anticipated by
those they never heard Of. Their books
or plays do not become popular Their
crops are sure to be injured by the
floods or the tornadoes, their vessels to
be shipwrecked or burned, and their
houses are certain to be consumed with
in twenty-four hours after the insurance
policy has expired, or the day before
they had resolved to take one out.
Judges are sure to rule adversely to
their interests, and juries always bring
in verdicts against them. Their letters
are certain to astray, and their baggage
or express packages are sure to be lost
or stolen. 1t is they who are always
looking for their missing knives, and
who are constantly wondering where
their hats or their umbrellas have gone
to. The money they put into their
pocketbooks, mysterlously, disappear.
Even when they desire to be prudent,
and, with considerable sacrifice and
pains, buy their potatoes, their coal
and other stores in advance, ut reduced
rates, the prices of the succeeding win
ter invariably fall below what they
have pad. They are to be dreaded as
Jonah was dreaded. The boughs Of
the trees they climb always break, and
the boats they row or sail always cap
size. The train they take is by no
means TO be expected at its terminus
on time-and even if late should cause
gratitude that it got there at all. Or,
if they are not the victims, they are
the authors, of all sorts of involuntary
mischief Altogether. shrewd old

They hoated for fifteen days, during
which time thirteen of his companions
died, and he and his companion had
nearly persisted from starvation and
exposure when picked up. At another
time, when his ship was cruising on the
coast of Africa, he and another sailor
were washed overheard and managed
to reach the shore. There being no

and after travelling almost one hundred
miles they fell into the hands of the

Sheen lcr Frontier Husbandry.

The wear 1882 will mark an impor-
tant era in the history of several of the
newer states, because of its association
with the unprecedented influx of emf
grafton, and the consequent addition
to the working capital of such states
brain and Drawn, as we'll as money
thus brought to their development.
All these frontier states possess advan-
tages fully equalling, sometimes even
beyond, the reasonable conceptions OF
the many who are casting their lots
withia their borders The most prom
ising of these advantages lie in the d.
rection of live stock raising. The
myriads of acres of rich grasses that
have annually greeted the summer sun,
and fed the autunna fires during the
first century of the national lifetime,
are destined to enter largely into the
flesh and fibre that will feed and clothe
the augmenting millions of the second
century.
Sneep husbandry is peculiar in that,
pursued in a certain direction, 1t is
ADAPTED to the most advanced system
of husbandry, while especially COM
mending itself to the pioneer farmer.
No animal so rapidly or completely
"civilizes" its surroundings as does the
sheep. Under its close and persistent
clipping the coarse grasses become
dwarfed, or give place to those better
suited to permanent Iasturage-ln1
either case rendering the stubborn sod
of the original prairie more readily
subservient to the pillow OF the husband
man.
The ravaging prairie fires, often so
destructive to frontier settlements, lose
their terrors, and grow dim on the con-
fines of the sheep walk. The pralne

ence 20 the cattle herd, should the set
tier be so fortunate as to own one, as
the cattle will soon realize that their
best pasturage lies outside the circuit
grazed by the sheep, while the few rods

Something About Teeth.

Why do some peoples teeth come
ont more readily than Others? The
reasons for this are probably many.
About the middle Of the last century,
Peter Kahn, a Swede, visited America,
and wrote sensibly about what he saw.
He observed h frequent loss of teeth
among settlers from Europe, espec-
ciaily women After discussing and
rejecting many modes of explanation,
he attributed it to hot tea and other
hot beverages and comes to a general
conclusion that shot feeders lose their
teeth more readily than cold feeders"
Mr.. Catiln, who some years ago had an
interesting exhibition of Indian $. emery,
dresses, weapons, etc, noticed that
North American Indians have better
teeth than the whites. He accounts
for the difference in this strange way,
that the reds keep their mouth shut,
whereas the whites keep it open. The
teeth, he says, require moisture to keep
tlleir surfaces in good working order
when the mouth is open, the mucous
membrane has tendency to dry up,
the teeth lose their needed supply of
moisture, and thence come discolora-
ton, toothache, ticdooureaux, decay,
looseness and eventual loss of teeth.
Mr., Ca,lin scolds the human race gen
orally for being less sensible than the
brutes in this respect, and the whites
especially IN comparison with the red
We keep our mouths open far too
much. The Indian warrior sleeps,
hunts and smiles with his mouth shut
and respires through his nostris

1t Is matter of no small moment to
owners of inferior hocks to know in
what way they can best serve their in
terests in breeding their sheep. 1t is
plain to all that to use an inferior ram
is positive detriment. while the cross
ing of a good blooded and finely bred
ram OF almost any race is productive of
much good. If the flock is poorly bred,
small, and consequently light shearers,
II is not very profitable, or at least not
as much 80 as it should be. Mingle
this blood with that of good mutton
bred and very astonishing results take
place. The sheep is nearly or quite
doubled in size, the fiberous production
is fully as profitable although much
coarser and lighter. In this cross the
mutton qualities are the points of spec
ial interest. The animal is no longer
to be raised for wool, but must be well
fed and quickly fattened. The size
has been increased, but the cost of
keeping has been correspondingly en-
larged. These are points for consider
alton. On the other hand had an
equally good merino ram been used,
instead of the Cotswold, fully as re-
markable changes would be noticeable.
The size is increased to a certain extent
and mutton qualities increased to q
profitable point. A hardy constitution
prevails to cope with the elements OF
winter or summer, the wool is made
finer, larger, stronger and denser, and
the old flock that scarcely raised four
pounds are superseded by one that
yields six or seven pounds. 1t will not
cost much more TO keep the eight
pound sheep than it did to keep their
four pound ancestors. The merino has
an iron constitution, possesses most
valuable fleece and flesh Of the sweetest
flavor. Circumstances may of course
in some instances make an advantage
IN favor of either class ofsheep, render
ing it wise, perhaps, to keep them in
preference to the other, more generally
successful kind; but where pasturage
is an item of importance it is wise to
raise that which brings the best returns
at the least cost. There are many
points in favor of the merino, and
careful breeders are raising the stand
ard of their focks as high as possible
by giving good care and introducing
the best merlno rams.
