LIQUID Manure.

1t is a matter of great surprise that
many farmers allow the liquid contents
Of their barn-yards to be washed away
into creeks and rivers, instead of say NC
and utilizing it i'll fertilizing their land.
Nor will il ever be otherwise until
proper means are taken to prevent it.
There certainly would be no great
trouble in doing 50. All that is neccs
sary is to dig a round pit or cistern of
sufficient size Just outside the baTn-yard,
and walling it up with stone, firmly i'm
bodied in cement mortar to make it
water-tight A trench or sort of blind
ditch about foot in depth-the sides of
which to be also walled with stone
should then be dug all along the lower
side of the yard, close inside the fence,
for the purpose Of conducting the liquid
from the yard o the cistern, from which
it is to be pumped Uremptied as needed,
into a five-barrel cask, placed in the
hind end of a wagon to be hauled to
wherever wanted. hole should have
been previously bored into the cask
near its lower heading. from which
there should extend a piece Of rubber
hose to connect it with distributor
suspended from the rear end of the
wagon by means of iron rods, the dis
tributer to be made of a four nch pump
stock, five feet in length, closed at both
ends, and perforated with quarter inch
holes at short intervals the whole Length
of the bottom, for the purpose Of dis
tributing the liquid over the land.
With such a cOntrivance it is an easy
matter to distribute the liquid as fast as
accumulated, and it is particularly bene-
fetal to grass land at any time when
the grass is not large enough to be in
iured by being driven over BY this
means and by carefully saving and utl-
ling all other manurial material found
on the premises, we verify bel eve that
ON n majority OF farms the most of the
money now being spent in the purchase
OF fertilizers could be saved. baltimore

The Stranger in the Pulpit.

Bishop Simpson made his first APP.
pearance in Lancaster, Pa, one Sunday
morning very unexpectedly to himself
and the ''peOple called Methodists'' of
that city. His home was in Pittsburgh
He was travelling over the Pennsylvania
Railroad to Philadelphia, and a break
down detained him over Sunday in Lam
caster. After breakfast he sauntered
out to find a Methodist Church, and,
walking up Duke street, he met good
Methodist, the late Mr.. Carpenter Nc
Cherry, who engaged the Bishop in con-
versatiOn. DR.. Simpson was plainly
dressed, and looked anything else than
a Bishop is commonly supposed to look.
Brother McCleery judged from his con-
versatiOn that he was local preacher,
and the good Bishop did not enlighten
him to the contrary. The preacher in
charge of the Duke-street : Methodist
Episcopal Church finally arrived, and
the Bishop was introduced to him as
'BrOther Simpson, local preacher of
the Pittsburgh Conference" After con-
siderable persuasion, the Bishop was
prevailed upon to preach. What disap-
pOintment was visible upon the faces of
that congregation that morning. They

opening hymn and then prayed. Those
who thought they were going to be
bored began to think differently, and
when the Bishop announced his text,
''The greatest of all is charity" expec-
tatiOn was on tip-toe. A grander, more
eloquent, more feeling discourse was
never delivered in that church. AS the
Bishop was celebrating his points and
carrying his congregation to the highe st
pitch by the magnificent roundings of
his sentences, the thought occurred to
the preacher sitting in the pulpit that
this must be Bishop Simpson, and, upon
concluding the sermon, the preacher
asked him: care you not Bishop Simp-
son?' The Bishops modest and naive
reply was: They call me so at home. -
The preacher Immediately turned, faced
the congregation and said: "You have
had the extreme pleasure of listening to
Bishop Simpson. -Harri8batrg Patriot.

THE MONTPELIER SEMINARY

Noah Granger, the efficient agent
for the endowment of the Montpelier
Seminary, is in the county and is re-
ceiving quite q large sum of money.
The largest single subscription, just
received in the county is from Gen.
W. W. Grout, 500. Mr.. Granger
thanks the friends who have already
contributed, and hopes for further
liberal donations. This seminary,
for long time located at Newbury,
was moved to Montpelier some years
ago, q valuable site purchased, large
buildings procured for boarding hous-
es, and very excellent brick build
ing erected for school purposes. The
expenses exceeded the funds in hand,
and for some years the burden of
debt rested on the property and i'm
paired the usefulness of the institu-
ton. Recently, through the energet-
| lie efforts OF Rev. j. d. Beeman,
president, the debt has been largely
reduced, and will soon be wiped ont.
The school also has been put in a
very iourishing condition, and now
ranks among the best in the state.
Mr.. Granger, working for the endow-
ment, has already raised $50, 600, on
ly part of the state being yet can
vassed. As the success of the insti-
tuition is more and more assured, peo-
pie are eheerfully giving to the en-
dowment fund, that better facilities
may be afforded to these needy stu
dents who require assistance, and 9
better school in every respect may
be afforded those students who at.
ted this seminary.

THE LIQUOR QUESTION IN
OHIO.

The temperance question is chief |
issue in the Ohio convass, and Judge |
Hoadley has lost no time in stating
his position upon it. The constitu
tionality of the Scott law, which pro-
vides for high license, has been af-
frmed by the courts, and the law is
sustained by the republicans. 1t is
opposed by the liquor interest-which
as an interest, is certainly not that
of good order nor of good morals,
but of crime, and of great taxation
to repress it-and the liquor interest
is identified with the democratic par
ty. Judge Hoadly is evidently
aware of the difficulty of his position,
and of justifying to the intelligent
citizens of his state the opposition of
his party to so fair and reasonable a
law. The difficulty is only increas-
ed by his frank ayowal of his approx
al of license system. This reduces
his plea to an objection to q particu-
lar form of license. Judge Hoadly
is an able and an ardent politician.
But this situation battles him; and
while his argument has the dexterity
of desperation, it cannot even con-
fuse an intelligent voter, and to such
a one only is it addressed, because
no other is affected by argument.
Judge Hoadly states strongly his
adherence of intemperance, and says
that if he believed that alcohol was
poison, and its use a sin, he would
advocate absolute prohibition. But
the right principle, he says, for deal
ing with the liquor traffic is regula-
ton of its abuse, and not prohibition.
So far the great multitude of all good
citizens would agree with him. I'm
doubtedly the great general senti-
ment of the country is that the sale
of Intoxicating liquor as a beverage
should be strictly regulated by law.
When, therefore, the Judge proceeds
to say that to prohibit drinking 6
glass of such liquor is to infringe
upon private right, he ingeniously
but palpabiy shifts his ground, be-
cause the proposition in its terms is
not to prohibit drinking, but to per
nit drinking under certain conditions
This shift is an open attempt a
sophistry, which of course miscarries
The Judge then lays down what hi
holds to be the true rule of license
: namely, a graduated system proper
! toned to the amount of the traffic
: and to the amount of injur,
;" which the traffic may do, eth
b Scott law" he is reported to hay
+ said, s'makes no distinction, but say
that any man for 5000 may make a
many drunkards as he can" Blu
the Judge had already agreed tina

The Washington correspondent of
the Boston Journal claims to have
inside information which shows that
President Arthur is forming his plans
to be a candidate before the next re-
publican national convention to sue
coed himself. Taking the way that
Gen. Arthur has managed his adj
ministration as whole we have no
hesitation in saying that the country
might do much worse than have him
as his own successOr-but, however
this may be, the President is not 60
ing to stay at home TO lay wires this
summer, but is soon to leave on an
extended visit to the Yellowstone
region with Gen. Sheridan, and he
rejoices in the thought that he will
then be entirely beyond the reach of
politicians and office-seekers, wear
his old hunting suit, live like a saw
age, and get mole health and solid
satisfaction than twenty "society'
seasons could afford him. As the
party will cut off from telegraphic
and mail communication, Gen Sheri-
dan will establish daily line of mill
tary couriers from wherever the Pres
ident goes to the nearest telegraph
station, so that he will be in daily
communication with the executive
offices as well as he could be on q
fishing excursion.
