The SUNDAY Law,


Nashville has been sorely torn al
over the enforcement of the Sunday
law which closes all saloons, stores
markets, news stands, etc. A test
case has resulted in declaring the
law invalid, but it is appealed and is
being enforced. The rabDle are
terribly down on the authorities, as
the following hapdbill shows. 1t
was printed in large form and cir
cnlated:

1t is this sort of slush that makes

to the money he makes, and it is
criminal nonsense to stir up the
worst element in mems natures by
telling such an absurd untruth as
that the poor widow pays more tax

and the man who carries them is
actually carrying and sustaining
the government itself. 1t pays for
his services by excepting his bond
from taxation. The government
would be a pretty fol to issue

Breeders of Shropshires claim for
their favorites that they are the
most profitable of all sheep in this
country, as they combine the good
qualities of the southdown as a
mea' -proaueing animal and the Me-
rino as a wool-bearing sheep. The
Southdown, if purely bred, is NUT
ton sheep and nothing else; it is
the lightest shearing of all English
favorite breeds, and, in the words
of Prof. Jennings, lis cultivated tor
it's mutton, which for quality, takes
precedence Of all Others For the
sake of mutton qualities the wool
has been sacrificed, and it is the
least valuable of English wool-pro-
ducers. But in other qualities,
--docility, early maturity, milking,
and as a good mother--it has no
superior. Combining wool and
mntt,,~ the Shropshire may be more
profitable, irdeed, combining the
two, the Shropshire is said TO be
more profitable than the ~'oflRe !
but as a mutton sheep, pure ana
simple, and as the most beautifully
formed sheep,the Southdown stands

Senator Sherman accused Blaine
of plagiarism in his whisky tax dis
tribution scheme, and then turned
right around the first bill day in
the senate and introduced a bill to
arrange for convention of South
American states at Washington
next year to consider and consoli
date the interests of the powers of
our side of the world. That was
one of Blaine's grand conceptions
while in Garfield's cabinet and the
Ohio senator steals it bodily from
him. The idea was coupled with
his new and advanced enuntiation
of the Monroe doctrine and
would have doubtless led to large
accessions to our trade with those
countries and placed the Unit, d
States in the lead of the powers of
the western hemisphere. If Sena-
tor Sherman did not oppose it then,
he at least did not come to its sup
port. After his recent belittling of
Mr.. Blaine it looks little diminn-
tive in him to attempt to steal the
loudest clap of thunder ever let off
by the great pap.

debt and contending that it is our i'm
perative duty to-day to settle definitely
the question, whether we shall have

ticle entitled Theological Re-adjust-

sists upon tue necessity of eliminating

whether in the pHlpit or in the Sunday
school, all doctrines and all statements
of supposed facts which have been dis

scholarship, and by the progress OF

The contest over the speaker
ship, said the Post Dispatch of Sat
urday, is the most impoEtept politi-
cal event in the year. Its result
will decide not only the legislation
of the session but the whole politi-
cal future of the country.
As congress is now constituted,
all business is-done by committees,
and the chairman of each committee
is almost invariably a majority of
the committee. The power of the
speaker in the appointment of com
mittees is greater than any power
exercised by the president. At a
critical time like the present, more
depends on the speaker than ON the
president.
The coming session must deal
with the surplus This involves the
whole question Of revenue, the tariff,
the finances, taxation, every pecunia-
ry interest OF the people in the gov
eminent.
These are points TO be borne in |
mind by those who send men to con
gress. We learn some things by
The force of circumstances, and this
is one of them.

the master mine Of wealth. Strong
meadows fill big barns.-Fat pas

that will carry a steer carries
wealth.-Flush pastures make fat
stock.-Heavy meadows make hap
Ply farmers.-Up to my ears in soft
grass laughs the fat ox.-Sweet pas
lures make sound butter. Soft hay
make strong wool. These are some
of the maxims of the meadow
The grass seed to SOW depends upon
the soil and here every man must
be his own judge. Not every far

The Dayton Journal publishes
the following: "Who will profit
another year by the following ex-
perience: Two adjoining fields, of
ten acres each, on William Van
sceiver's farmwere sown in wheat the
last week in September. Both were
of the same kind of soil, upland
clay, and both, received the same
kind of treatment at seed time.
The same quantity and quality OF
wheat was sown on each, with 9
drill. In the spring, field No. l did
not show as good a stand as No. 2;
in fact, it threatened total failure,
and his neighbors advised to plow
it for corn. AS soon as the ground
was dry enough, about April 18TH,
H. c.. Darnell, who was cultiyating
it on the shares, put harrow on
No. 1, and thoroughly loosened the
soil. No. was left untouched, as
it promised good yield from the
start. Both fields were threshed.
No. 1, yielded II bushels per acre;
No. 2. 10 bushels per acre."

In Great Britain children are
raised on oatmeal diet alone, be-
cause it causes them to grow
strong and healthful, and no better
food can be found for them; it is
also as desirable for the student as
the laborer, and for the lady as the
servant girl. Indeed, all classes
would be benefited by its use, and
dyspepsia troubles would all be
done away with. Oatmeal is very
substantial food; it is equal to beef
or mutton, giving as much or more
mental vigor; it is especially good
for nursing mothers. Oatmeal re-
ouires to be cooked slowly, and
boiling water added as it is needed.

universal satisfaction In every Tor
cign country known to civilization,
filled two engagements to full houses
In Lyric Hall last week, their first in
America. Their advertisements, un-
like many others, are u mere outline
OF what their entertainment really
Is. Their music is sublimcly grand
and expressive. Their word plays,
which are intersrersed AS relief to
actors and rest to their auditors,
are apt and happy illustrations in
the great drama OF human life. The
repeated changes OF tho most bril-
liant costumes, and the rapidity with
which made, were the wonder and
admiration Of all. The same person
retiring from the stage as servant
girl was transformed and returned
to the stage as II by tho touch OF
magic In the most elegant attire
with brilliant diamonds sparkling
everywhere. The company is q
brilliant star, worthy Of liberal pat
ronage from the most refined and
cultivated people Of every commun-
ity. To all such we take pride and
pleasure In commanding it.
