Homer L. Wright, Esq, shipped
last Monday to Guernsey county
Ohio, three young bulls, raised
by him from stock brought here
by him and his brother Charley.
These calves should have been
bought and kept by our own far
mers to improve our stock. Oul
farmers should learn this before
it is too late. 1t costs something,
but it pays we'll. WHAT'S Hook
ng's loss in this instance is Guern-

sell cheaper to their neighbors in
order to improve the cattle they
buy and ship; but if our farmers
will not buy their improved stock
it must be sent to other counties
where there are more wide awake
stock raisers.

The DeEin0uent List.

1t sometimes happens that the
public are misled by the names
of persons advertised as delin-
quent with taxes. The name ad.
verGsed in the paper is net al
ways an assurance that he is the
delinquent. It often happens
this way: Smith sells property
TO Jones, Jones neglects to re-
port the sale TO the Auditor
Jones fails to pay his tax. The
property and not the Individual
is held for the tax. The land
stands in Smiths name, and ia
so advertised, although Smith
does not have a dollar of interest
in it. So as the reader may see,
it often happens that mems
names are published as delin-
auent when in fact they are not.

FROM WASHINGTON.


WARRINGTON. ID. c., June 2S. 1854
AS Mr.. Randall has been compelled to
decline an invitation to deliver the COM
mencement address at the University OF
Virginia. committee of the students OF
that University was here this morning and
invited SENATOR Vance to deliver the adj
dress. hut he too declined. 1t is understood
that the invitation will be extended to
Messrs Cox and|Blackburn, by one OF whom
it is thought it will be accepted.
1t is reported that should the proposed
plan for the Notifications of Washington be
adopted, Of which, however, there IL no hope
at this session Of Congress, the dismantled
Battery Rodgers at Alexandria, in addition
10 Forts Foote and Washington, will be re-
paired and occupied.
Governor Curtin aud Mr. Randall both
saw that there will be no trouble about the
tariff plank in the national democratic plat
form. They also say that % States are
instructed against reduction of the tariff,
but they do not give the source of the latter
piece of information.
Gen. Slocum, the patron of the FitZ John
Porter bill, expressed elfto-day as being
byn means certain that the President would
approve that bill, as powerful influences
were operating upon him in that direction,
and as all the members of his Cabinet ex-
cept Frelinghuysen and Brewster were OPP
posed TO his signing it.
When the House opened to day it was
thought that the political debate commenced
yesterday on the subject of the ownership of
nm immense tract of what was once Govern,
ment land, in the West, would be renewed,
but Mr.. Cox, who had the floor, moved that
it be laid on the table, as Congress and the
country were already tired of it. His mo-
ton was unanimously adopted. The House
then agreed to the conference report on the
legislative bill; and also agreed to report
recommending the printing of 4O0, 600 copies
Of the agricultural report at SO cents copy.
The House then took up the bill limiting
the hours Of labor in Government employ to
eight hours, MIR. Richardson opposing it for
the reason that the Government now paid
higher wages than other employer, and
that such law would create an aristocracy
of labor.
At meeting of the Springer committee
to-day General D. G. Swain and General
II. V. Boynton were called to corrobo-
rate the testimony given by Mr.. Wood
ward and afterwards contradcted by
Mr. Cook General Swain said that from
the reputation of Cook and Gibson he did
not think they ought to have been employ
ed. He could not remember positively, but
had the impression that the President had
been informed of the character of Cook. 1t
was Cooks reputation that the President
had objected to. The President was in
delicate position and could not take the in
auiry out of tie hands of the men to whom
it had been entrusted, but he would urge
the employment of men above reproacb.
The subject of the removal of Cook and
and Gibson was frequently referred to by
the President. Gen. II. V. Boynton testi-
fed that Immediately after Cooks employ
ment he asked the President if it were true
that Cook had been employed as Govern
ment counsel. The President replied that

as if he contemplates running his congress

Now THAT hundreds of rich Northern
people have just had their all swept away

the old lesson of the instability of stocks

safer and more profitable investments can
be found, for the asking, in Virginia, where
the mountains are filled with all sorts OF
nudeveloped valuable minerals, and where
the valleys abound with unused water
power. Or, if they be disposed to farmers

tural purposes, or for cattle and sheep ranches,
can be bought at AS cheap rates as prevail
