Proceedings Against the Troupe.


Proceedings Against the Troupe.
A large audience was present at Har,
per's theatre Saturday night on the occa
sion of the visit for the first fine to Rock
Island of Lester & Aliens minstrel COM
pany. Though there were few good
features about the performanee-the abb
sence of "chestnuts' being first among
these-the entertainment was on the
whole, below the average given by would
be burnt-cork artists. There is not a
comedian in the troupe, Lester and Allen
being the weakest of the lot The shad>
owgrapa part of the programme was
quite commendable, but when this is said
the entertainment has been given all the
praise it deserves.
After the curtain had dropped Satur>
day night, Constable Lieberknecht at
tempted to attach some of the troupe's
baggage, but was elected from the stage.
MIR. Lieberknecht had instruments which
Maj. Connolly had placed in his
hands, it being claim from
Chic lgo firm for lilhographing. Yes
terday morning Maj. Connolly and
Constable Lieberknecht went to the
theatre for the purpose of attaching the
company's property. but Mr. Connolly
was told by one OF the Proprietors that
he had sent for the boys, aud they would
play h with him presently" Mr. Com
nelly however, was too old man to be
scared by any such bluff talk, and he
secured the services of several policemen
and wagon and carried away what
seemed to him TO be su Hicient amount
of the baggage to cover the claim, and
the boys" though they were all there;
didu't play h" worth a cent. This
morning the troupe went to Muscatine, |
bat up to last accounts had not succeeded |
in releasing their baggage. though they
were making threats as what they could |
do. A snide company may always be
judged by the number of creditors who |
pursue it.

A George town has 4 mayor and
four alderman. At recent meeting
of the board the mayor came up absent
where uppon one of the aldermen was
elected mayor pro tenn, When a vote
was taken on certain question two
aldermen voted aye and one voted
no. The pro tenn mayor claimed his
right as, an alderman to vote, and 50
he voted no. The result was of course
Il tiei the pro tenn then claimed his
right, as hiayor, to unite, and again
voted no. We don't pretend to in>in-
uate that there was anything wrong
IN the proceedings, but it frets us to
set up so late at night to comprehend
how they do business over in Georgia.

Mango or barn itch on cattle, can
be easily cured by one or two appli-
cations of mOlasses this is less often
sive than sulphur and grease, and is
fully as efficient. The cheapest grade
ofmoiasses will answer the purpose.
Don't try to accomplish too much on
the farm-that is, don't plant more
crop than you can take care of.
Don't keep more stock than you
can feed well. Don't set out fruit
trees and then leave them to care for
themselves; and, we add, don't in
dulge in lpXuries that you cannot
pay for. Success in farming depends
as much on energy and perseverance,
as any other business. A lazy shift
less farmer is rarely u successful one.
AS man is known by the company
he keeps, so is lazy farmer known
by the looks Of his farm; loose stones,
half titled fields, and thrifty hedge
rows tell the tale. Dry earth is one
of the best absorbents to use about
stables, privy vaults and cess pools;
it holds and checks the escaping foul
0dOrs, and makes most excellent
fertilizer. Good plaster is also good
to use about hen roosts and stables,
rs it holds the escaping ammonia,
which is quite valuable as fertilizer.
Farmers complain every spring ofthe
ravages of the crow in their corn
fields. a thorough tarring of the
corn used for seed at times Of plant
ing will avert this evil Soak the
corn over night; drain all the water,
and pour sufficient pine tar over it
to give it a thorough coatigg. Stir
it until every kernel is tarred, then
dry off with ground plaster. The
thanks Of cabbage growers await the
man who will discover successful
method of destroying the green cab
bage worm. Various remedies have
been often recommended, but when
tried are generally found to be inef-
fective. The best preventative we
have ever found is plenty Of fertilizer
at the root OF the cabbage, and thor
ough tiIage, SO that the growth fthe
plant will keep ahead Of the worm.-I

The st. Louis Republican pays the
| following high tribute to the Poet
Priest of the South:
When the Rev. Father Abram j.
| Ryan, of Virginia, died in Louisville
It . o'clock on Thursday evening he
passed into history, where he will
mold an enduring place as long as the
late Southern cOntederacy remains Il
part of it. The critics grant his pro-
ductions no high position in litcra-
ture, but those productions are of u
class which deties the critics and
lives in their despite, Lecause they
are written not for the critics but for
the people. 1t generally happens to
the maker of heroic ballad that the
critics only discover his merits after
they have allowed his name to die,
finding that his propuctions have
been held in memory by the people
and transmitted from generation to
generation, In eIery line OF
'such poems as "The Conquered Ban
ner," wherein he grants absolution
without acknowledging or requiring
the acknowledgment that there has
been sin, the reader can sec evidences
OF intense earnestnesS and t"ar"cOui-
pellilg sorrow. While such poems
live, they will tell the world, better
thar any history, the feelings in the
heart of IA people which impelled tito
stake its life on the appeal to heaven
for the trial of its cause. They eX-
plain the four years of fire and blood
better than Il hundred volumes of
prose history which records events
and seeks to record causes without |
being able to embalm feeling. 70 do |
that is the province OF the heroic bal |
lad, and it is as a writer of heroic /
ballads that history owes Il debt TO
Father Ryan it will repay with i'm
mortality,

This is an age Of free thought. free
will and above all others, all age Of
free discu ssion in the papers, in the
pulpits, on the rostrum and on the
hustings, and the man that fears his
cause in any of these tribunals, has
no cause, and wishes to inject his own
ideas upon the public without the
crucial test Of fair, openly, manly
and intellectual opposition. Any
cause that will seek the shelter Of
religious prejudices without sharp,
incisive and reasonable opposition,
sinks in advance of the decision Of
public approval or disapproVal.
Weak, but good men, have often tried
to cry down the press in certain
places and on certain subjects and in
every place and on every occasion,
this unreasonable opposition has
whctted the anxiety Of the waiting
public to know what danger lurkpd
