We expect that every year will bring a
number of new varieties of wcll known
vegetables. Indeed, it would be poor

give us at least half dozen new peas or
new names, but to have an entirely new
vegetable added to the list, is something
noteworthy. The plant in question is

ern Africa; it belongs to the Mint Family,
and, what is unusual In that family, pro
duces fieshly, edible tuberous roots. These
tubers are dressed like string beans, or fried
in the form Of fritters, and are said to make
an excellent pickle. When freshly dug the
tubers are pearly white, but upon exposure
to the air they become blackened, hence it
is advised to dig them only as wanted for
use, or if dug in advance, to keep them
covered with earth. StGehys a6inis is the
botanical name, and we are given "Choro.
Gi," as synonym, probably the name by
which it is known in its native country.
The plant is said to be very hardy, and tc

The effort to attribute personal feel
ing to Senator Large in his opposition to
the confirmation of Hon. John Carpenter
as Commissioner of the Sinking Fund, is
unjust, and two or three Republican pa
pers in the State that have written con-
demnatory articles on this assumption,
had better study the facts before making
assertions. The editor of this paper had
talk with Mr.. Large about the matter,
just after the reference of the nomination,
ard he stated to us, what he has written
in his recently published letter in refer
ence to the matter-that he would be
guided by the advice of the Democrats
who aided to elect him--if they desired
Mr.. C.'s confirmation he would labor for
it, but If they did not, he would oppose it..
Every one who knows anything about
Hunterdon county politics, knows that
the anti Pidcock wing of the Democracy
aided to elect Mr.. Large, and if it had not
been for their help, Mr.. L. would not have
been Senator. These anti -Pidcock Dem
ocrats did not feel like helping one of the
ablest leaders of the opposite faction to a
fat Office, and Mr.. L. felt under obliga-
tion to respect their wishes.

myself on the question at issue. They were

Conversation.

Emerson says: sit is very certain
that sincere and happy conversation
doubles our powers-that in the effort
to unfold our thought to a friend we
make it clearer to ourselves, and sur
round it with illustrations that help
anddelight us. 1t may happen that
each hears from the other q better
wisdom than any one else will ever
hear from either. = Our chief
want in life-is it not somebody who
can make us do what we can? And
we are easily great with the loved or
honored associate. We come out OF
our egg-shell existence and see the great
dome archlng over u.s., see the zenith
above and the nadir under us. \ X
Speech lspower, speechis to persuade,
to convert, to compel. 1t is to bring
another out of his bad sense your
good sense: you are to be missionary
and carrier of all that is good and
noble"
OF course nothing OF all this IAN be
pretended or forced. No efforts to
say what is not thought or felt can
ever be successful. As is the life so
will be the speech, for "out of the
abundance of the heart the mouth
,speaketh." Sincerity is the first
element of all good conversations;
all Others combined cannot atone for
its lack. 1t is, however, largely a
matter of emphasis. We can give ut
terance to the real thoughts within
us II thus stimulate them to bet
ter work; we can let our purest teei-
lngs have free vent in words and thus
nourish them, while inferior themes
and thoughts and desires can be ST.
lently dropped and will thuslose some
OF their hold upon us. There is often
room for much courage in speech;
courage not so much to maintain
opinions as to confess ignorance. One
OF the chief benefits of conversation is
for each to learn that which his COM
panlon knows and he does not, and
this benefit can only come to the
modest and receptive mind. Most OF
the argument held by persons of OBJ
poslte views is quite futile for the
want of this mental condition. The
object is, not to find out the truth
aoout the mooted subject, but to
shine and to conquer. Neither party
becomes wiser, neither Is convinced.
The triumph OF one and the humilia-
ticn OF the other are alike fruitless,
and more or less unpleasant feeling is
LETT behind. A thorough defeat taken
in the right spirit is more really valu-
able to the truth-seeker than twenty
victories that only feed vanity

A Clean PiS-pen.

A great change is takingplace among
western stocklnen and journals in re-
gard to the benefit OF pure water and
clean food for swine as a precaution
against swine fever. A few years ago
it was thought, or at least said, that
hogs were not subject to the same con-
ditions as other animals; that filth
was natural to them, and therefore
cleanliness was thrown away upon
them. If any II could see, as the
writer has done recently, the lair OF
some hogs which were ranged in q
southernforest he would wholly change
his views if he ever held such as these.
A nest OF brakes and leaves csrried in
under q shelving rock, which formed a
protecting roof, afforded n soft, clean
bed. Not an odor OF the common pig
pen could be detected, and n clear,
sparkling brook ran nea by to which
q distinct trail had been worn by
the animals. The modern western
idea, however, is that hogs Eeed pure
water and wholesome and varied food
to maintain them i'll health, and this
lesson has been learned through the ia
fluence of that potent and effective
teacher-the pocket.-N. Y. Times.

Sleeplessness-An Unfailing Remedy for
Little Children. -"

From Babyhood.
Ihave found an unfailing remedy
for sleeplcssness in my children is
fresh air, either taking them to it or
introducing an abundant supply into
their rooms. Taking them to it is
the surest way.
My nurse, when baby was two
weeks old, was bewildered by so
healthy q creature never sleeping in
the day time, and used every means
IN her knowledge to cause sleep, but
without success. At last | insisted
that my recipe should be tried. She
should take him in the garden. So
she bundled him up and then went
for n handkerchief to cover his face.
objected-that would not do. She
could protect his face with 81 sunshade,
but he must haveair. So he went,
with his great blue eyes wide open to
look at the world. Hardly had she
crossed the threshold when the eyes
were closed, and he had the sweetest
and most peaceful nap heever enjoyed
in his lie.
This experience seemed to convince
him that out of doors was the only
sleeping place, and from May to No
vemhSr be never took u nap in the
house, but slept peacefully i'll his car
riage in the garden or on the piazza.
Under this system he grew and thrived
wonderfully.
The baby of a friend of mine in Cen
trail Massachusetts took maps out OF
doors all winter, properly protected
in his carriage on a sheltered piazza,
and, though q very delicate child, never
II took cold.
| think one u OF sleeplessness in
nursing babies is that their mothers
take too little refreshing exercise in the
open air. Ii | failed to be in the fresh
air some time each day when / was
nursing q baby | always could see the
result in the increased fretfulness and
nervousness OF the child. A pleasant
walk, or, il too tiresome, sitting out
of-doors for even fifteen minutes, al
ways seemed to impart to the milk a
quieting. healthful quality. My chill
dren have all been OF sensitive organ
izations, and for that reason l have
been led to notice these things. /
hope my experience may be OF use to
some other mothers.
