Keep your Yearllng Hens.

A great mistake is often made by farm
ers selling their hens and keeping the
pullets for the following years business.
In our opinion tits wrong. We believe
a hen year, 2years, or even years old.
will lay as many eggs as q pullet, and
the chicks from these hens will be
healthier and mature sooner, and in
fact, make finer specimens all around than
chicks batched from eggs laid by pullets.
If there are any readers who have been
troubled with weak chicks, take our ad.
vice and try the experiments with your
hens, and if you do not believe there is
anything in it, set the eggs of pullets and
and those of hens, mark the chicks and
await the results The finest chicks we
ever raised we're from a hen in her fourth
year. Itis great error that the hens
life profit and usefulness ID only one
year. They have been known to last for
twelve years and still be profitable.

FELL BACK IN GOOD ORDER,
The Last Charge Made In the Virginia
Campaign.
CAMDEN. Sept. 10, 1883


TO the Editor of the News and Courier: !:
In your paper of Friday, 7th instant, is
an extract from an article of Gen. Sheri.
dan on the surrender headed "Gary at
Appomattox." At the request of many
of our men I have taken the liberty of
sending you and asking the publication
of description taken from "The Falling
Flag;p of this as Gen. Sheridan says the
last charge made and the last shot fired
in the Virginia Campaign.
The material facts stated by General
Sheridan are put fairly enough and are
of value as proving from the other side
where the, brigade was and what they
were doing at that particular juncture.
1t is where he speaks of the charge of
Custer's and Merritt's divisions and the
st"aight" Of Gary's brigade that we ask q
hearing. Gen. Sheridan says: "While
Gordon and Wilcox were engaged in con.
yersation with me cloud of dust, O wild
;hurrah, q flashing Of sabres indicated a
charge, and the ejaculators of my staff
officers were heard, Merritt has ordered
CHARGE and the fight of Gary's brigade
followed. Lieut.. Allen vas released, and
the last charge was made and the last
gun was fred in the Virginia campaign"
AS stated in the extract from "The
Falling Flag there was no charge of the
two cavalry divisions, some s, 900 strong,
and no flight, in military parlsnce, of the
$50 men left of Gary's brigade. They
fell back slowly and in good order, not
breaking their formation, and made
their last stand not three hundred yards
from the point they first struck the Fed.
eral divisions, when the courier rode
between the lines with the flag that
announced the. suspension of hostilities
and everything was brought to halt.
The conduct of the brigade in making
: this their last stand and firing their last
shot Was equal to anything they ever did
on the battlefield, and they. are entitled
to all that it is worth. -
a charge of Clusters and Merritt's
divisions on our handful, while o great
compliment certainly to us, would have
been sn sbsurdity in itself; they had
thrown ont skirmish line, in advance
of their forward movement, which would
prove that no such thing as charge was
thought of.
I send statements from M. P. Tribble,
who was the courier who brought the
flag, and Lieut.. James Halle, acting ad-
iutant 7th South Carolina cavalry, who
we're in position to see all that was going
on at the close. I remain yours, respect.

The foregoing States willscast a144 Of
the, 40l Electoral votes;s and at no cleo
.tion since 1856 have go many States been
sin any measure doubtful. :. We regard
New York, Connecticut, Indiana and
West Virginia, as more likely to vote for
cleveland, than to vote for Harrison,
while the,other Statesclassed as doubtful
are more likely toivote,for Harrison than
for Cleveland : but it is certainly within
the rapge.of reasonable probability that
snearly:or quite all of them may vote for
either Cleveland or Harrison, and the
chances Of such nearly or quite united
svote are to day about even between the
two candidates.
We are aware that few political leaders
.on.either side are prepared to accept this
view of. the present national struggle, but
they are estimating only from the usual
slrface,indications, whensit il conceded
that there arc hundreds of thousands Of
voters in States we class as doubtful, who
are studying the tariff and tax issue for
themselves and who are certain to
exhibit exceptional independence in
voting on the question. These hesita.
ting voters embrace every political faith,
and, however they may vote on election
day, they will vote their convictions
rather thanIin obedience to party. They
may divide so nearly equal in numbers as
mot to materially effect results; they
| may cast aslarge spnsp sponderalce of their
.yotess for Cley yeland, ,sorl they may cast 9
large preponderance for Harrison, and
and If they shall largely fall upon one
side or the other, they will carry every
State we-class as doubtful for the candi.
date who commands their favor.
It is this vote of from half q million
to million Of voters, scattered from
/ New Hampshire to- California; shat
furnishes the one element of doubt in
|ithe present contest, and it is not the
.wrangling of Democratic factions in New
York. With the support of the bulk OF
this doubtful vote, Cleveland will be
.elected.with-or without the aid of Tam.
many or the County Democracy; with
out the bulk of that vote victory in
the Empire State would be valueless to
Shim. And this vote that is next Il to
certain to be the controlling factors o.
tie battle is. bsyondsthe reachs of party
discipline or party prejudice or party
corruption funds. 1t will decide the
issue for itself; it will decide it indie.
