A few days ago the same Harris, now a Senator from Tennessee, introduced a bill for the relief of the widow of Parson Brownlow, and heartily supports it. The principle involved in the butteroleomargarine controvesv has been boldly passed upon by the Louisiana Legislature, which has just adopted a law forcing the manufacturers and dealers in agricultural fertilizers to label all their products. This will enable the farmers in the State to buyany one of the many varieties offered in the market, provided the labels do uot get ou the wrong bags. After all, if a manufacturer or dealer wants to ing him is a term or two behind the bars. There are laws enough on the ?? moi-o o fJ<rvrlpn itatute dooks now - of Eden out of this sad world. A leading exchange, in speaking of the orations of members ofCoiJgtfs: in the death of Senator^toeulo^ies "There can bejio-sd^ices of the iate on the ikaer. of California, who was p^arta'nt and devoted soldier and a citizen of singularly attractive character. But it would certainly conform more to the standard of .conduct he himself observed if the House of! i Represedatives had cTfosen' an evening apart, or even a Sunday, for the delivery of such eulogies, instead of giving up to thern several hours of a business session and then adjourning. Such waste of time is a poor tribute to the lucuiui v ui a cuiisciemzous legislator.' The San Francisco Bulletin calls attention to the fact that the next United States Senator from California will be chosen under political conditions for which no parallel is furnished except in the case of the first Senators elected. There will he no hold-over Senators in the next Legislature. Neither party will have any hoarded political power. In iNovetnber next a full Senate as well as a fuil Assembly will have to be embodied by the electors. This is a political event which the framers of the constitution con-, ternplated should have taken place in j 1882; but by a chain of very peculiar j circumstances it had been postponed to J 1S86. Of the forty Senators who will j be chosen only twenty will sit for four ! years; that is to say, the Senators from the even districts. At the general election in 1888 Senators wiil have to be elected from the odd districts.

The indignant protest of the pres and people against the action of thosi Democratic members of Congress wh< refused oven to consider a tar riff re form bill seems to have had someetfect ine announcement is nuw maui- uiu Mr. Kandall will, daring' the presen session, prepare a tariff reform bil himself and offer it for the consulcra tion of the House. That there will b any large measure of real tariff rcforu in 3 bill prepared by Mr. Randall ca: hardly be hoped, but. even the pretens of a desire to fulfill the pledge given i the party's platform is a good sign. I shows that the small groups ofPemc crats who have defied the will of live sixths of the party have at last bee brought to understand that there i danger in thwarting the will of th majority. For years it has been th flast exhibition of this kind of minoi 1 itv rule have caussu men I the principles ot ^ maintained ^?tfrthat the hope o partyhe^J-^jj^cess will vanish 111 th to which the party must lool fior the great bulk of its electoral votes I Mr. llantlall and his associates liav< j made the astounding discovery at las I that the majority need to be concili 1 atcd. They have hitherto acted on tin J theory that conciliation was for then j alone. T!:e Vetoes of the President. Few men have occupied the Whiti House since the foundation of oui government who were marc fearlesi Itl lliVit U'/UVUO Uiliii X t VyOlUUllO land. In sending back fifteen vetoes of pension bills he gives Congress t slap in the face which will not soon b( forgotten. Dold and fearless, lie tells that body what should be their action, and in his statement It can be seen thai he is t'.>o far above the orninan statesman to stoop from duty, though il loses the soldier vote. In returning the bills he says: A large proportion of these billhave never been submitted to a maiorifv r?f fMthfM- hmnc.h nf ('r>ii(/rpce j - VW.'giVWS, but arc the results of nominal sessions held fori he express purpose of their consideration and attended by a small minority of the members of the respective houses of the legislative branch of government. Thus, in considering these bills, I have not leit that I was aided by the deliberate judgment of the Congress; and when I have deemed it my duty to disapprove many of the bills presented 1 have hardly regarded my action as a dissent from the conclusions of the people's roprentatives. * * * During the present session of Congress special pension bills have been submitted to uie, and I atn advised thai 111 more have received the favorable action of both houses of Congress and will be presented within a day or two, making over GOO of these !.<ills which have been passed up to tins time during the present session, nearly three times thr> IllimliPl' nf Eiliv itntirn jioii since the year I8G1. Heedlessness and the disregard of the principle which underlies the '/ranting of pensions is unfair to the wounded, crippled soldier who is honored in the just recognition of his government. Such a man should never find himself side by side on the pension roll with those who have been iemptea to attribute the natural ills to which humanity is heir to service in lie army. A second fearless stand is shown in lis veto of two public building' bills, md in his reply he said: It s-eemsto me that in the consideration ol the merits of this bill the necessities ot the government should conrol the question, an<l that it should !>e lecided as a business proposition detending upbu the need of a governnent building at the point proposed n order to do the government work. L'his greatly reduces the value ol" ^raistics showing population, extent ot msiness, prospective growth and maters of that kind, winch, though exicedingly interesting, do not always lcnion>tratc the ntcessity oi' the ex lendiiureof a large >uni ol' money for l public building. * * * While a line government building is a desirable irnamcnt to any town or city, and : while the securing of an appropriation : therefor is often considered as an iilusI tra'ion of zeal and activity in the ini terest of :i constituency, I am of tlie j opinion that the expenditure of public l money for such a purpose should dei pentl upon the necessity of such a building for public uses. lu the case i under consideration I have no doubt ! the government can be well accotnmo! dated for some time to come in all its I business relations with the people of Zantsville by renting quarters, at less 1 expense than the annual cost of maiu! taining tiie nroposed new building | after its completion. One-Sided Development. The Philadelphia Times thinks that the physical breakdown of Secretary Manning at a time of life when he i ? should have been both physically and ! mentally at his best has served to call ; public attention to a very common sin i against the laws of health. The Sec<}f>v(>tn<] himself religiously to I I Vl?l J ! his public duties, lie was a man oi full habit and was a generous liver. He : never walked or took any other pbysi; cal exercise that he could avoid. The i breakdown in his case was inevitable, as it will be in the case of most men i who pursue a similar course. The cares, anxieties :uid vexations of pub lie life added to the strain under which lie succumbr-d, but men in private lift who pursue a rimilar course are liabh to t!ie same fate. The leading- attorney ot one ol'the counties ot Penn , sylvauia iately underwent a >imi!ai tuirv He was about lorty-live years old ami very euergeiie ami ambi li m.s. He spent eight or ten hour: d.iiiv at his ilok and denied himsel a i exercise or it-creation. lie wa > rick en with ] aralysis as Man.jin< was stricken ami "will be a physica and mental wreck during the remain der of his iife. His physicians clain ' .that with a proper degree of physica L j exercise he should live in the ful enjoyment of his powers to a greei "1 old age. i The experience of men who have lei ' active, bnsv lives in nrofessional am 1; political pursuits, but who have take: i the precaution to exercise their bodie ': as well as their intellectual powers * j bears out this assumption. Gladston ' j is jn<c entering upon a great politic? campaign, fresh and vigorous, althoug considerably past the three-score an ten years which usually mark th limit of a man's active life. He i ^ j known as the woodchopper of Ilawai " j den. Oliver "Wendell Holmes, wh I delights in handling the oar even i ' | his present advanced age, shows littl diminution of his active powers. Caj * tain Ericson, of Monitor fame, thong 3 I long past eighty years of age, spenc - i an hour or two each day in gymnast: * i exercises. Ex-Chief Justice Agnev t t j of Pennsylvania, carries his four-scoi I ! years with the clastic step ox unn -! because he has made it a practice t e walk'from two to five miles a day < jj ! take some other form of exerci: e ! equivalent to ihe walk. RoscoeConl i] ; ling walks, handles the Indian clu! II and boxing-gloves and otherwise di ! ports himself like a man who belicvi n that sound health depends upon cxe s cise. George Bancroft, the historia e who is now in his eighty-sixth yea y ! tended lnuennitely, but conspicuou J examples enough have been cited t e show that the rule holds good that me e who like plenty of exercise are muc 1 more likely to live out their days i ? activity and usefulness than those wh confine themselves entirely to menU e pursuits. 1 If any real benefit is to he derive ~ | from the present increased interest i ^ : athletic exorcises it must come as th : result of a conviction that men foilou i ing sedentary pursuits which tax th ' mental forces and call lor no corres s! ponding exercise of the physics ..1 powers, are getting a one-sided devei . i opinent, which is likely to result i _ I disaster. A sound mind in a health ?: both' can result onlv from the svm > j j metrical development of both mini ^ i and body, College athletics, whic! ?i are a means and not an end, are to b > i ! encouraged to the fullest extent. Bu ! j the greatest danger exists after a! i when school and college days ar . ended and the boys have become men r: burdened witii the cares and labors o i an arduous profession. The man win . j uiii ni;$ wiui mm tiJiuiigu 1110 ijis luuu I ness for his boyish diversions will b< ! boyish and vigorous to the end of hi: | j days. The man who leaves then behind him at his entrance into bus! ness or professional life is in grav* j danger of becoming old and brokei ! down before his time. It require! i some exertion for a lived man to walk : row, ride or engage in any kind o j physical exercise. The exertion ii i is necessary, however, and if made i systematically would soon cease to be ; an exertion. The added physical I vigor would make it a delight. It Pays Its Way. i The various stories that have been ! sut afloat about proposed junketing : trips this summer bv the President and ! members of his Cabinet are without ' foundation in fact. Neither the* Pres: ident nor any member of the AdminI tration has any thought of going on ; any pleasure excursions on a naval vessel, lhat sort of thing came to a i full stop on the 4th day of March, 1885. I "" e President has at all times refused | U use Government vessels for his private purposes, and will not take a i day's sail on any naval vessel as a recreation from his fatiguing duties. There is no more punctilious member of the Cabinet than Secretary Whitney. . who was recently falsely reported as about to make a pleasure tour of the Jakes on the Government steamer Michigan.

( j "higher" or scientific education, and < | shall consequently eschew the use of ' ! technicalities and simply give the result of my observation. The first crop of wheat I sowed was in the fall of 1S45?known by the old people as "the dry year". The variety sowed was mainly wiiat was then known as the Alabama May or the "little red" wheat. In the same field and at the same time I sowed a large-grain white J wheat, known in this vicinity :is tlie Baltimore. The result with both kinds , was satisfactory. No cheat appeared , this year. The next year, MG, I again > used the same varieties, the "little red" , still giving satisfactory results, but the Baltimore rusting badly, and among , it appearing a large quantity of a plant called among us "cockle". This ' , I apprehend is not a variety of cheat. , Thenceforth I discarded the Baltimore and used the "little red" only, for , several years without making the ac, quainlance of the great enemy of , Southern wheat growers, tne cneac, i but cockle was to be seen more or less every year. In 18">G or '57, I think, 11 . seeded a portion of my crop with a i , new Jiivoritc tliat had made Its appearance among us? the Gale, a large white ^ grain?still sticking to inv well-tried ^1 friend, tl e red. The result with the ! (jiale was magniliceiu?eighteen bushels s per acie. Eureka! I thought I !:ad l found it. J5ut alas for human hopes! 1 The next year I used none other than Gale?fooiishly discarding a long-tried friend for something new. The result 1 was almost an entire failure?cheat, 1 rust, and cockle predominating. Sor1 rowfully I hunted up old friend, the u "little red"', and continued to use it until about 1SG2 or :G:3, when the Mogul appeared and asked to be meu. it was simple enough lo do so. llesu't? d cheat and cockle were principally the n crop secured. I continued to use the "little red" until Sherman's army of 8 house-burners arrived here,- on the 22nd February, 18G5, when we lost the c "little red" and have not been able to j obtain pure seed since. We have used, "since freedom came down", " several varieties, but cheat and rust d appeared in all. We cannot account c for the presence of cheat in wheat? jg the scientific may?but it has come to stay. Some varieties of wheat seeminf/ly degenerate, and the result is o cheat. I have frequently noticed on it the margins of "sprouty places"?and - there are manv such in the lands about Kocky Mount?that there is frequently a greater quantity of cheat tban wheat, h There are, as you mentioned, two Is kinds of cheat?one in it's growth and jc maturity manifesting some of the characteristics of wheat, and the other of oats. We think the former degenee rated wheat and the latter degenerated ;v oats. I have never seen oats change '0 to this species of cheat, save when sown in the fall. Its presence in )r wheat can, in my opinion,' only be :e accounted for by the seeds being left in the fields or getting mixed at the )S threshing. Now, Messrs.
