In some sections-and it would be a
decided advance in thoughtfulness and
kindness in all ections--farmers give
each of their boys, and girls, too, a
strip of land to raise whatever they
choose upon it, and dispose of the pro-
duct for their own benefit. 1t Is fa-
vor that they appreciate, and 1t is a
pleasant and serviceable employment
for them in their leisure hours. They
will vie with each other in their skill
in raising their little crops, and the
proceeds applied to their own use are
frequently of some value; and the
whole arrangement, while it instructs
them in the cultivation of the soil ear
ly implants in the children the idea of
thrift and economy.


Sometimes, where good many ami
mails are raised, a pig, a lamb, a calf,
up to even a colt, according TO the age
of their children, is given to each to
rear and to keep or sell. Farmers,
think of this; it will more than repay
you in the happiness and confidence
1t will impart to your SONS and dau-
ters. Germantown Telegraph.

FSrst-Free banking to be open to all individ-

backs equal to so per cent of the amount of the
new National Bank notes issued until the green

traction of the currency as about ~ per cent. is
now required as bank reserves.


Third-The withdrawal and destruction of
fractional currency and the substitution of silver
coin, the arrangement TO go into effect soon as

of bonds of the series to obtain the funds for
that purpose.


Fourth-Removing the cost for the coinage of
gold at the several mints.


Fittb-Resumption of specie payments to COM
mence on the first day of January, 1879


The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to
use any surplus specie in the Treasury; and if
that is not sufficient to sell bonds in order to OBJ
tain gold to pay Treasury notes. But this last
provision does not. like the others, go into imme-
diate effect. The Legal-Tender act remains un-

progressed with varied fortune until the score

In recent Congress Democratic reform
er made long speech in Committee of the
Whole denouncing Republican extravaganza
in having so many officials of various ranks
about the House. The number is about one
hundred and forty. The House is now Dem
ocratic and If the professions of Democratic
Congressman are worth fig, they will at
once abolish all those Offices which they have
hitherto denounced as sinecures. 1t is said that
there are thousand or two of hungry fel-
lows after these places, but that should not
make the slightest difference. If the Offices
were sinecures under Republican rule, they
are no less so under Democratic It matters
not if the Confederate Democrat is "power.

when in the opposition have set up.
Year: 1875




The events of the past week will have a
tendency to make prudent Democratic lead
ers very uneasy and anxious. They must
have viewed with dismay the mob of noisy,
betting, swearing, staggering and drinking
fellows that Democratic majority in the
House invoked at Washington last week.
Their prudent leaders undoubtedly hope that
their funds will be quickly exchanged for
whiskey, and failing to get Offices, that their
Congressman will have to raise funds to send
them home. If we are to believe the accounts
OF the New York World, there is yet good
ly number OF Democratic workers in different
corners OF the country who regard the con-
version OF corn into bread as an unwarranted
diversion of that cereal from its highest use.
The democratic success has evidently turned
the head of the average Confederate, and
when he arrives in Washington and fires up
with that extract of corn which be so much
admires, he is a plain spoken fellow. The
cause which he lost some years since is re-
gained and he swaggers about the streets of
the national capital and glories in what he is
for what he has been. Said one the other
night on Pennsylvania avenue: ~ am a
Democrat, and sohat is more am Confed-
crate Democrat and a fighting one at that,
and If anybody doubts it, let him try me on"
This is the spirit which Democratic success
displays at the national capital, and this is
what will bring the Democratic party to early
grief. The people will not fail to recognize
this spirit and temper in the organization of
the House without disgust, if not alarm.
In other days the Southern Democracy
controlled the Northern wing, because the
latter desired Office. The former dictated the
party policy and the latter fed upon the
spoils. Now the Southern Democracy, hay
ing everything within its grasp, is intent on
having the whole. They evidently forget the
past. If they have not they regard it as
something to glory in. There is none of that
meekness and quietness that the model
Northern Democra attic leader desires. In the
organization of the House the victorious ma
jority of the South seized all the subordinate
offices except one. They demand front seats
and large share if not nearly all the loaves.
1t is vain for the prudent ones to make mo-
tions for silence or implore the Confederate
Democracy to bide their time until after the
Presidential election is over. 1t is vain for
Mr.. Lamar to make fine speeches fervent
with patriotism. The mass of the Democracy
from the South take pride in being known as
Confederate Democrats and fighting ones at
that"


1t is no wonder that the present majority
has brought the Democratic leaders perplex-
ity and anxiety 1t is likely to give them
| more anguish than their frequent defeats. The
prudent ones foresee that the pathway o
the party is intricate and full of danger, and
that danger lies in the vicious element of the
South which controls the party by virtue oi
| its majority.
