HE DEFENDED SLAVERY.

November 20. 1860. the Rev. DR..
Benjamin Morgan Palmer. a distin-
guished Presbyterian minister in the
south. who died recently at New Or
leans, preached a noted Thanksgiving
sermon, which, the Picayune truly
says, stirred his people like a clarion
call to arms; it was, in fact, as a
match to a powder magazine and
ruined the Union cause in his Sec
tion
The doctrine set forth was not SIM
ply the right of secession, but that 1t
was the "providential trust of the
south to conserve and perpetuate the
institution of domestic slavery as now
existing. Duty to ourselves he ar
gued, ''to our slaves, to the world and
to Almighty God, establishes the ma
ture and solemnity of our present
trust, to preserve and transmit our
present system of domestic servitude,
unchanged by man, to go and root it.
may carry it.
This so fell in with southern feel
ing that, as DR.. Charles Hodge said,
such a doctrine propounded by
man pure in character, eminent for
talents, and elevated in position. must
have been hailed almost as a reyela-
ton from heaven Although Dr.
Palmer. like ThornWell, held that the
pulpit should be thoroughly divorced
from politics, copies of his sermon,
as a splendid document, were clrcu-
lated by hundreds Of thousands

GERMAN LINER.

New York, Jan. 16.-Capt. Hoge-
mann of the North German Lloyd
steasmhip Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse,
which arrived on Wednesday from
Bremen, Southampton and Cherbourg,
had the longest wireless sea talk on
record with the Cunarder Lucania on
her last trip to Bremen from this port
He says that the Marconi apparatus
on both ships worked unusually well.
This he attributes partly to the fact
that the Kaiser S operator, Herr Kron-
ken, was formerly on the Lucania
and the Lucania's operator was once
on the Kaiser. Each thoroughly I'M
derstands the peculiarities of both in
struments. The ships held aerial con-
verse for nearly three days, or until
they were half way across seas.
The Lucania sailed three hours be-
fore the big Kaiser, on Dec. IA. Off
the Hook, when the Cunarder was
sixty miles ahead, the two ships be-
gnn to swap sentiments. The signal
ing was kept up all night long. At
daybreak the next day, Sunday, the
ships were in sight of each other. At
2 p. m, the Kaiser passed the Lucania
four miles to the southwark Twelve
messages were sent by passengers in
the Lucania to the Kaiser for trans
mission to the wireless station at the
Lizard, and thence by land wire to
the persons in England to whom they
were addressed.
Just after nightfall on Sunday the
lights of neither ship were visible from
the other. They were still in touch
Geographically. At noon on Monday
the liners exchanged positions and
their commanders found that they
were forty miles apart s.
Capt. Hogemann says that the mes
sages he received from the Lucani
were delivered at the Lizard station
and sent to their destinations, reach
ing them before the Lucania got into
port The Kaiser also notified the
North German Lloyd Office at Bremen
haven when she was about fifty five
miles from that place when she would
arrive at Bremen.

tanning from % cents to so cents

conditions 1t is only the first class
hotels, clubs and boarding-houses that

this purpose, as they mature early,

ABOUT HOT-HOUSE LAMBS.

The farmes of New Hampshire have
never as yet engaged extensively in
the raising of dollhouse lambs Early
lambs, born in March or early April,
will, without grain or extra care, only
good pasturage, find ready home
market in August on account of the
increasing demand caused by large
number of summer boarders that an
nually come to our States, and as yet
we are unable to supply the demand.
The few that have engaged in the
raising of hot-house lambs provide
warm, we'll ventilated quarters, feed
rich, nutritious food, such as linseed,
cottonseed, gluten and oil meals. The
lambs should be born in late October
or early November, and in January,

AGRICULTURAL.
COW FEEDING.

No Vermont dairyman needs be told
that this winters conditions as regards
purchased feed are peculiar and dis
heartening. The Experiment Station
has been several times importuned to
throw some light on the best dairy
feeding practice under these coudi-
tions. 1t is obvious that no rule can
be given which will be good under all
circumstances The farmer who has
his mows well filled with early cut
hay, containing considerable clover,
and plentiful supply of welleared
silage can get along with less con-
contracts than one whose hay is large
ly timothy or is late cut The man
who has but little clover, and who
has not yet learned the value of 81
lage, is certainly in bad fix.
Then, again, the advice which
should be given the man with thor
oughly good dairy animals would diff
fer from that adapted to him whose
stock is of average or low grade.
1t may be said in general, however,
that purchases this year, of all years,
should be confined almost exclusively
to bran, cottonseed, linseed and glu-
ten meals or feeds. Experiment sta
tions and institute speakers have for
years been eXpounding the doctrine
that the purchase of corn and oats by
New Englanders is an unwise prac-
tice The conditions of this winter
are driving home these facts with
sledge hammer blows. OF course if
grain feed is purchased at all it
should be the same for him who has
good and him who has poor animals,
for him whose hay is of the best and
whose silo is full and for him whose
meadows yielded but poorly and
whose corn is stocked The amounts
that need be fed, however, will prob
ably vary from a comparatively small
grain ration for the man whose rough
ages are plentiful and good, to me-
dunn or large one for the one who
has been less forehanded. The Yer
mont Experiment station, advises as a
good grain mixture for this year, four
parts bran, one part cottonseed or
gluten meal amounts to be fed vary
ing from four to eight pounds accord
ing to circumstances. Vermont Elk

NO COMPROMISE

Cape Town, Jan. TO- Sir John Cor ..
don Sprigg, Prime minister of the
Cape Colony, presided on Tu esday at
meeting of the Vigilance Associa-
ton. In the course of an address he
said that the termina ton of the wal
rested with the Beers, it being only
necessary for them to lay down their
arms. This, he added, would prob.
ably not occur just yet.
He was entirely opposed to England
offering anything in the nature of
terms to induce the Beers to submit.
Recollections of the blow inflicted
on the loyalists by the Majuba settle
ment induced him to take leading
part i'll the movement to prevent any
recurrence of that fatal calamity.
Unconditional surrender was absolute
ly essential, and the Beers were sure
to receive better treatment than they
deserve.

THE BLACK TURKEY

The modern black turkey is nearly
equal to the bronze in size The old
style blacks were not only inferior in
size but poor in quality. However,
by careful breeding and handling and
with an infusion of new blood they
have been greatly improved in size
and general makeup. To attain their
present weights and general charac-
teristics there is no question what
ever but that more or less bronze
blood has been judiciously used.
From a market standpoint there is
no question but that the blacks will
dress yellower and even plumper than
any other standard variety. The
standard weights of black turkeys are
Cocks, 81 pounds; hens, IS pounds:
cockerels, Is pounds, and pullets, ~
pounds. At the present time these
weights are entirely too low, except
on hens We have no trouble at
Christmas time in having pullets
from IA to 10 pounds, cockerels, 20 to
"a pounds and cock birds 30 or over.
The standard requires males and fe-
males to be lustrous black throughout,
but it is difficult matter to secure
young birds with solid colored plum
age, as more or less feathers in wings
will invariably be tipped with white.
This will usually disappear at matur-
ity. Good strains of black are strict
ly hardy, their eggs hatch well, and
they are fully as good layers as the
bronze or white. They are very doc
lie in their habits and are not inclined
to ramble as much as other varieties.
The young grow rapidly from the
start, and at selling time always COM
mand the top of the market.
The head and beak should be long
and broad and of good shape; eyes
bright and hazel; neck of medium
length and well curved; back broad,
of good length and highest in the cen
ter, and curved the shape of an egg.
The breast should be broad, deep and
full body of good length and round
| in outline; wings of good length and
snugly folded against the sides; tail
of medium length and when folded
comparatively small Thighs, shanks
and toes should be of good length,

THE CARE OF THE HORSE.

Your horse will not need as much
feed during his leisure in the winter
as through the heavy spring work,
yet his feed must be of that nature to
keep up the animal heat, and it is
necessary to feed some grain. Some
men decry corn, but my experience
is that corn is the standard after all
in keeping up animal heat. The horse
is different from the OK. He has a
small stomach compared to the OK, and
cannot eat enough of the coarser
feeds to sustain him. You may feed
him hay, fodder, straw or W eve
feed you have, but you must balance
that up with grain, oil, meal or some
thing of the kind. l would not keep
my horse in the stable too much. If
you have little work for him through
the winter, turn him out in good
weather, in lot, field or woodland,
but keep him out of falling snow and
rain and save feed and health Do not
give him ice water to drink, and have
him shivering for an hour afterward.
He will do without shoes if you do
not work him or turn him out ON the
ice. In extreme cold weather do not
leave your horse without feed until
eight o. clock in the morning. Hurry
out and feed him early. You fed him
the night before at six, and he should
be fed by six again. Keep salt where
he can get it at will, and if your hay
is inclined to be dusty, sprinkle it, if
the weather is not freezing. Farmers
generally feed what they have on
hand, but they should look to a bal
anced ration. If you feed straw OF
fodder, you should feed more grain
than when you feed clover hay.
Now, the cheapest food you can give
your horse is good warm stable and
kind treatment.
Never speak loud nor use profane
language in the hearing of your horse,
and you will be astonished at what q
kind horse you have. Since our cord
wood is gone and timber and rails are
things of the past, the farmer has less
use for his team through the winter
and one way to cheaper the winterini
of horses is to keep brood mares al
part of your teams, and raise fal
colts AS the work season comes OF
you want to increase the feed anC
care of your horse, so that he will bo
in prime condition at plough time
Change his feed as often as possible
throughout the winter. Man get
tired of the same ration each day ant
so does the horse. I. N. c., in Indi
ana Farmer.

TAINTS IN MILK.

Education is still needed among
farmers to tone up their ideas in meth
DDS of producing pure milk. The
thought with many people is that
milk is contaminated only by the in
PRODUCTION of foreign bodies directly
into the milk. 1t is true that this is
a prolific source of bad favored butter
and cheese, but not the only one. 1t
does not occur to these farmers that
taints may be introduced to these
products through the organism of the
COW by her breathing an impure and
tainted atmosphere. Well authenti-
Gated instances are on record where
COWS at pasture, breathing air pol
luted by carrion, carried the faint to
their milk, and seriously affected the
whole product of the factories to
which the milk was sent.
The modern barn, with close tie-up
and cellar used as depository for the
accumulation of manure through the
winter, is more than suggestive of
tainted milk when COWS are confined
in such quarters. The old, lax no.
tions of allowing COWS to stand and lie
down in their ordure six months of
the year, accepting the condition of
filthiness the COWS take on in conse-
quence as a matter of course, are not
yet all obsolete, And yet these farm
ers think they are targets for persecu-
tion if the factory management insists
upon a reform in their practice on
penalty of exclusion from the factory.
