There is once more sympathy and

perhaps each involves a similar princi-

THE RETREAT FROM GRAVEYARD HILL.

whose movements were to be timed to
gether. They, too, found the roads blocked
with fallen trees and were Obliged TO aban-
don their cannon on the march. Their as.
sault was met with grape and shell from
Battery c, and as they pressed over the
front rifle pits the guns of Battery d, on
Hindman hill, raked their lines as the guns

works in the rear and upon the town, as
had been planned. But the Missouri boys
had been too clever for them and had
plugged the bores with shot and carried
away the worms and primers, leaving the
pieces worthless to the captors.
Meanwhile Fort Curtis made use of its
long range siege guns, and shelled the cap
tured hill and redoubt, and the gunboat
Tyler did the same. Price ordered an ad
vance upon the rear of the Hindman hill
battery and upon Fort Curtis, but his
troops mistakingly passed them and dashed
on to the town. Pagan took advantage of
the turn Of affairs on Graveyard bill and
put his men to the assault of Battery ID.

THE COUNTRY LAWYER"
He Has Compelled Admiration Even
from His Enemies.

He Has Compelled Admiration Even
from His Enemies.
We congratulate the Republican party
and tne nation at large on the renomina-
ton Of that sterling patriot and wise
statesman, Benjamin Harrison. Four
years ago Benjamin Harrison was styled
a country lawyer" He assumed the
duties of the presidency modestly.
There has never been anything of the
brass band about his methods. He has
worked quietly and has achieved unex-
pected successes. He has commanded
respect from the unwilling and has
grown in popularity until, as we fully
believe, there is not an honest man who
does not consider him an eminently safe
and sagacious executive.
We do not believe there will be any
detection in the party by reason of his
nomination. Those who opposed him
did so ON proper grounds. President
Harrison certainly developed great
strength. The convention spoke for the
party, and we are convinced that the
was the best that could have
been made. Those who thought he was
strong only among Office holders now
see that he is stronger still with the peo-
pie at large.
The Republican party never had more
reason to be satisfied with its prospects
than it has now.-P Philadelphia Inquirer.

Care of CalvIng Cows.

A great deal oftroubleis experienced
with COWS when calving because Of
sheer carlessncss. This is process OF
nature. and there should be no trouble;
but ii we antagonize nature in other
directions, we cripple her all around.
Many a COW has no special attention
paid TO her, either while she is carry
ing her calf, or at calving time. She is
permitted to get along the best way
She can; and not unirequently the
system is in such a weakened condi-
ton that to expect her to calve with
safety is foolish. But she should not
be killed with kindness. She should
not be tattened, for instance. She
should simply be kept in good condi-
ton, and every ones judgment will
suggest what that is. Milk secretions
should not be greatly encouraged be-
fore calving. The animals food
should consist principally OF the bone
and muscle forming varieties. And
after calving great care should be
taken that she does not get cold. and
her food for a few days should be of
non-stimulating character. The sys-
TEN for q time needs opportunity to
recuperate, and until it has had a
chance to do that no additional strain
should be put upon it; for time the
machinery should be run at q low
speed.-The Farming World.

Number of Eggs,

How many eggs per ahnum will the
best non-setting varieties OF hens lay?
We have heard of single Hamburg and
Leghcrn hens producing $50 to 300
eggs each per annum; but what we
would like to know is, can a flock OF
ten up to fifty average this? There is
no doubt. with properc care in selecting
to breed from, and in time such Il
flock could be b. ought upto this great
average. The difficulty, however, in
selecting breeders from a flock is o
ascertain which hens out of it lay the
most eggs; for there are some, even
among the non-sitters that lay few,
and If their eggs are Matched, the chick
ems like their mothers, would prob
ably grow up poor layers. In order
to increase the average laying OF
flock, eggs for Matching must be select
ed from those hens which lay the great
est number. Now who will go into
this and give us hens that we can de-
pend upon, every one, to lay an as.
sured number OF eggs per annum, as
with cows which will give a certain
quantity of milk or butter perannum?
Yet, to be certain OF this. the former,
like the latter, must be kept separate.
Who will take the particular trouble
to do this? 1t will be we'll worth ones
while; for he could rapidly sell chick
ems thus producing at large price,
