An Initiated Tramp.

We have before maintained that
the trsmps securing about the
country are q regular organized
fraternity, having q general under.
standing with one another and
having q ritual Of questions and
answers. Their uniform appear
ance, their periodical visits to the
same localities. their regular calls
at the same houses where they
have procured food, all point to
this. Sheriff Walls, OF this CITY

them and has studied their charcter

The Courier.JournaI For 1885.
an organ Of
Live Issues, Living
ideas and Moral
Forces.
and an enemy of
Monopolies, oligarchlsu and
the Spirit Of Subsidy, AZ
Embodied in
That Thieving Tariff.

The Courier Journal is the acknOwl
edged Representative Newspaper of the
South, il Democratic in Politics, and
first, last and all the time is for reluc.
ton of the war taxes, as levied ON the
people by the tariff now in force.
The Weekly Couxie1-Jou1na1
Is without q superior in the world as a
great family and political newspaper, and
during tie year 1885 it will strive more
zealOusly and hopefully than ever for its
political faith, not neglecting, however,
the infinite variety Of choice miscellany
that causes it to be SO great q favOrite in
the family circle. The return to power of
the Democratic party will make 1855 a
year marked in the history Of the United
States. and no family should lie without
the Couricr-JOurnal who desire to keep
thor onghly posted on passing events.
The Weekly Courier Journal has the
LARGEST Dem. CIRCULATION
of any Newspaper in America. If you
are unacquainted with it ask any sub
scriber to it as to its merit as great FAM
lily and political newspaper. In point Of
quality and quantity Of interesting read
ing matter it leads the newspaper press of
the United States. If money, industry
and enterprise can keep it so it will con-
tinue ut the head of American journals.
It contains, each week, the most complete
summary of the news of the world, and
ITS editorial columns Henry WattersOn,
Editor-in- Chiefly are always able, strong
and bright. Among the ESPECIAL
FEATURES are Telegraphic Spec
ials from all the leading points in the
United States aud Europe, Serial and
short stories by popular and noted writer's.
Talmage's sermons tho day after delivery
in Brooklyn Tabernacle, Market reports,
fashion letters, turf and stock reports,
answers to Correspondents Department,
Poetry and department for children. No
Home IN the country should be without it.
THE COUR1ER-J0URNAL
Distinctly represents the nOn-Office hold
ing and n0n-office seeking classes. 1t is
o critic. not an organ; friendly to those
who serve the country we'll; hostile to
those who fail to servo it, or serve it ill;
equally without entangling alliances or
expectations other than the confidence
and support of the people, to whom alone
it owes allegiance. It will have NO COM
promises to mako with time-servers, but
will keep right on in the path of duty
which it has marked out for itself, regard
less of consequences. 1t will fight mo-
nopoly whether Il rears it's horrid head in
sitie or outside the Democratic party. It
viii fight intolerance and illiberalism
VIII erever they appear, and has no quarter
to give to. or ask from, malefaction and
NAL efactors, Democratic or Republican.
With this explanation of it's scope, plan
and purpose, We submit the following

The day is not far distant when
farming in tho United States will
be conducted upon as thorough a
system of tillage as is followed in
France and England. This may
not he from necessity, like it is
there, but because our farmers will
learn that thorough tillage is the
most profitable.
Watch the barnyard and see
that no fertilizing material is was
ted. Mr.. w. B. Boynton is conf
dent that half of the stable manure
of the country is wasted for want
of proper care. Its most valuable
elements are leached away under
the drip of caves, or washed out Of
barpyards, or sunk into subsoil-
quite likely to the pollution OF
wells and water courses.
The general character Of farm
help is poorer than forty years ago
when less was required than now.
To be a tirst-class farm assistant

complicated than any our fathers

worth several dollars moro per
month than one who is only able
q do rough work. Intelligence

Just as much rs manufactu ring,

A BACHELORS DREAM.
TO JOSIE s. OF TAMM.NY.

In dreams and visions of the night,
When fancy revels free and wild.
found me in hapless plight,
Which daylight has not reconciled.
I saw q maiden much lice thee.
With eyes and tr.sses woRd'rons fair
And her sweet smiles anil joy Gus gles
Might with fairy nymph compare.
Then musing to myself, / said.
(For was grave amid her mirth,)
could I possess This little maid,
I'd be the happiest man on earth.
But still feared to speak til word
That breatlied my wishes to the fair;
For should that little mo" be heard,
knew 'twould sink me to despair.
At length my lips were opened wide:-
"Wilt thou be miner" said, SO bold
She sobered down. yet did not chide.
And answered. .'Sir. you are too old.
Then quick my dream of hope was fed
With one light bound. all full of JOY
reached the door, and, turning. said,
.Too old, indeed, I'm but a boy r.

Mr.. Parker is we'll known through
