the idea OF the abolition of the marriage
contract should not frown upon the idea
OF seeing a feminine deputation at the
Senate. Thus the Republican party, which
Is. above all others, conservative. has un-
derstood that feminine suffrage would
form barrier against the subYersion of
the existing order of things and that
woman by her special aptitudes of heart
would, more than man, interest herself in
the well-being of the masses and would
know how to do it in way that all would
come within the limits of the consti-
tuition.

PORCUPINE aUILLs.
Their Barbs Work Slowly and Pain
fully Into the Flesh.
Iohn Rnrronghs In Sd. Memoirs.

John Burroughs in ST. Nicholas
The quill of a pOrcupine is like a bad
habit; if it once gets hold it constantly
works deeper and deeper though the quill
has no power of motion in itself; it is
the live, active flesh that draws it in by
means Of the barbed point. One day my
boy and I encountered a porcupine on
top of one of the Catskills. and we had a
little circus with him; we wanted to wake
him up and make him show a little ex-
element if possible. Without violence or
injury to him we succeeded to the extent
of making his eyes fairly stand out from
his head, but quicken his motion he
would not-possibly could not.
What astonished and alarmed him
seemed to be that his quilts had no effect
upon his enemies; they laughed at his
weapons. He stuck his head under a
rock and left his back and tail exposed.
This is the .porcupine's favorlte position
of defense. Now come, If you dare" he
seems TO say Touch his tall and, like a
trap, II springs UP and strikes your hand
full of little quilts. The tail is the active
weapon of defense; with this the animal
strikes, At is the outpost that delivers its
fire before the citadel is reached. 1t is
doubtless, this fact that has given rise
TO the popular notion that the porcupine
can shoot It's quilts, which, of course it
can not do.
With rotten stick we sprang at the
animals tail and again and again, till its
supply of quilts began to run low, and the
creature grew uneasy. What does this

COTTON CURrAILMENT.

The Cotton Growers association. which met at Memphis on Tuesday last, listened to an address from Hon. Hector D. Lane, the commissioner of agriculture of Ala bama and president of that body. Mr. Lane advised the people to plant for short crop, using the familiar argument that a. short crop brings in as much mon- ey as large crop. Following out the lines laid down by him. the convention issued the following address:
 ''To the Cotton Growers of America
 The Cotton Growers Protective Asso- clatton of America. in convention as- sembled at Memphis, Tenn, on this, the 21st day of January, 1896, again come to you with an urgent appeal for co-opera- tive action in planting the crop for 1896. It is matter of extreme congratulation that the appeal made to you last year was so generally responded to and that the crop of 1895, made upon the diminish ed acreage, has had the effect of greatly increasing the price and bringing pros perity to the country. The crop of 1895, though estimated to be 3,400,000 bales short of the crop of 1894, was in the mar kets of the world worth more by nearly $3O OO0 900. In the face of this result, to abandon the idea of diminished acreage would be to sound the retreat in the face of victory It is the consensus of opin- ion among the best thinkers that if by any means the cotton crop of America could be held within the limits of 1000 900 bales per annum for ten years the peo- pie of these southern states would be the richest and most prosperous agricultural people in the world How can this be brought about? The answer is with you.
 We appeal to your self-interest and to your patriotism to do all in your power to keep down the production of the sta- pie. Do not abandon the ground you Hoh laid down; put more lands in clover and grasses for your hogs to run on; diversity your crops, and when you have done all this, the area devoted to cotton will yield more profitable returns than if you sought to increase the number of your bales.
 Tt is felt by the most thoughtful men that we are entering upon a year of great uncertainties, and that even a small cotton crop may fail to give ade- quate returns for it's production. The mutterngs of storm are disturbing the country and unsettling all business cal culations. The prudent man will trim his sails to meet it. With the commerce of the country interrupted by war-and war may come-cotton would be unsal- able except at nominal prices. Every consideration, then, of patriotism, of self interest and of prudence dictates that you adhere strictly to the rule of dimin- ished acreage. Earnest men are earnest ly working to lead you and to guide you into prosperity. Do not let them la bor in vain, but cheerfully and hopefully re- sDond to their appeal"
