JONES Conner, a negro man, who lives on Big
creek near this place. and, calling him 10 thu
yard, seized him. bore him TO the ground, cut his
entr;sils out and left him for dead. Yesterday
morning the bloody and dying Conner was dlscoy-
parties who bulchered him. Sheriff Poe immedi-
atey organized posse and arrested several OF the
accused parties, and has them under strong guard.
The others escaped. The friends OF those under
arrest are desperate, and the sheriff is man OF
nerve; hence serious trouble is anticipated. Con-
nor was suspected OF being implicated in the Cole
Spring mail robbery near Shepard a few weeks
ago. This is supposed to be the cause OF his assas-
sination. He is horribly mutilated and cannot
live but few hours"

A Great Association.

The National Cattle and Horse Growers
Association of the United States is the
most powerful wealthy and influential or
ganizaton of its kind in the world; 1862
individuals are actively interested in its
welfare there are State and Territorial
vice presidents; it represents 100000
cattle. 10 900, 900 horses, and 81 600 900,
600 capital, Among its members may be
found State governors, legislators, U. S.
Senators. millionaires, and others of very
great influence. The Importance of this
association. and the prerogatives it con-
trolls, can be somewhat understood when
we realize that the success of vast in
dustrv which involves millions OF dollars
to the wage workers of the y. s., is sub
ject to the men comprising this body.
SO tar as statistics are reliable, we have
in this country more than halt as many
cattle as all Europe; 1000 head of cattle
to every 1000 inhabitants, while France
has only 3l2, Germany $40 the United
Kingdom 29S. and Russia POS. Though
this association is only year old, it is al
ready engaged in working much good. Ii
calls for wholesome State and national
legislation on all matters pertaining to
cattle and horse interests. and was the
means of causing Congress to take ma
tioual measures towards suppressing con-
tagious diseases throughout the country.

Women Travelling Alone.

1t is very happy thought. says fe-
male writer, that we women can travel
alone from one,end of our broad land to
the other; We may find it more pleasant
to have company, but when compelled to
90 without any one we find it can be done
with perfect safety. 1t is well to familiar
ize ones self to short trips from home.
and thus become more self-reliant and
fearless when the time comes to start out
on more heightened journey. To feel
perfectly at home, when surrounded by
strangers on crowded steamboat or rail-
way train, we must have had some ex-
perience OF the same kind. You will
usually meet with pleasant officials, who
will render you any service that you
need; or ii you find them gruff or
surly. do not let it disturb you
in the least. 1t Is always much
more agreeable, and puts one more
completely at ease, to be treated with civ
ility; but when you reflect upon the num-
Der of questions these persons have Of
fered to them, can you wonder at a little
impotence
Be sure to be in time to meet the little
conveyance by which you are to travel.
and to see that your tickets are correct
and your baggage checked. and your check
secured in safe place. Have with you
more money than you will need, but have
the greater part OF it in some secure
place. Dress as plainly as possible, in
quiet colors, with little jewelry or orna-
ments of any kind. II you are going on
a long journey, see that all your needs, so
tar as possible, are provided for before
hand. so that you may not be obliged to
ask strangers to help you; and when
obliged to change cars, 60 with the crowd
and do not lag behind.
Do not allow any one to look after your
luggage but yourself. Should there be
any doubt as to tie cars you are to take,
or the way you are to go, ask an official
or laborer who is likely to know. Do
not get confused or lose your presence of
mind, no matter what emergencies you
may find yourself placed in. and you will

Age of Horses.

| have somewhere seen a statement of
the average age attained by the horses of
the United States, which is. If | remem-
Der rightly, considerably less than fifty
years. II this is so, it shows that the
equine as well as the human race does
not live out half its days. A good, we'll
trained horse is valuable animal, and ii
for no other than economic reasons, such
an enormous waste is a matter for serious
consideration, at least on the part of those
who do not believe that waste and extra
vagance are essential to the nations pros
perity. But when we think of all the
neglect and abuse which this waste i'm
plies, the subject is indeed a painful one
Within the past fifty years five horses have
lived on the farm here, whose united ages
amount to more than $50 years. Three
of them were natives, four spent nearly
their whole lives here, and are now rest
ing beneath the soil on which so long
they lived and labored. One, a compare
lively recent conner, is still living, we'll
and hearty, at the age of thirty-three
years.
So far as my memory serves. they have
been well cared tor and kindly treated,
not kept as parlor ornaments, neither as
shining lights of the race course. With
plenty OF strength and speed in reserve
for possible emergencies, they labored
steadily, did their life work web, and died
full of years and honors. Doubtless
many farms in New England have as good
a record in this respect but there is abun-
dant room tor improvement. The subject
is well worth the attention of all who love
and respect that noble animal the horse.
1t is to be hoped that as the world grows
wiser, men will take pride and pleasure
in caring for their faithful servitors, and
mercifully grant them release from
their labors, when the days OF their use
fitness are past-Nev England Farmer.
