AGRICULTURE.


THERE Is no such disease as hollow
horn. When cattle are sick their horns
are apt to be cold, but we must look
elsewhere than TO the horn for the dis.
ease. Indigestion is quite apt to be the
cause, and this is often accompanied
with loss of appetite, indicated by a re-
lusal to chew the cud. 1t is a popular
mistake to suppose that the cud has
been lost and must be replaced. We
might as well talk OF putting an appe-
tite into a dyspeptic man. Exercise
and careful feeding will bring cattle
around all right, and men also, for that
matter.

THOMAS A. HENDRICKS.

Our Thanksgiving day was turned
into a day of mourning by the an
nouncement that Thomas A. Hendricks,
vice-president of the United States, had
died, at his home in Indianapolis, at 3
o'clock the evening before, suddenly,
of heart disease.
1t has been known to those about
him for some time that Mr.. Hendricks
health was rather precarious. During
the last session of the senate we had
the pleasure of meeting him in his
Office. back of the senate chamber.
With that warmth OF heart, which was
as natural to him as the air he breathed,
and which all through his life made for
him a friend of almost every man with
whom he came in contact, he treated
US with the cordially of an old friend.
He vas so with everybody; and it was
no politicians trick, but the outpour-
ing of a heart which was filled with
love for his fellow-men. This was the
chief characteristic Of the man. 1t was
this that made him beloved by the reo-
pie of Indiana, and that through bitter
factional disputes always left him the
leader of his party in that state and the
most trusted of all its public men by
the common people.
He was at heart a democrat. He
hated shams. He loved the people.
Where others were cold he was warm.
Where others calculated he threw him.
self upon the generosity and the honor
of the people. Fairly elected vice.
president of the United States in 1876,
his scorn for the men who by perjury
and trickery robbed the country of its
decision at the polls was unceasing, and
his speech in arraignment of them, in
the subsequent campaign, will live in
the forensic literature of the country
while time lasts.
Big-hearted, pure, unselfish, he was
ever ready to do battle for princi-
Piles which he believed in; and few men
could do so more effectively.
In his private life he was blameless;
and amidst all the bitterness of party
strife, amidst much misrepresentation
and misrepresentation of the man, there
was never whispered against his char
scter a word of suspicion Or reproach.
Those who measure him by their own
narrow political prejudlces may write
him down as merely a politician, but
those who fairly Judge him will estimate
him as having been a statesman, a man
of broadest views, philanthropic, kind,
who ever preached the gospel of honor,
fairness, love.
Thomas A. Hendricks was a grand
and a great a AS president he
would have put all his calumniators to
shame; as vice-president he did his
duty faithfully, modestly and well. In
his death the nation has lost an honor
able son, and the democratic party its
ablest champion on the hustings.
