tlurkciing Wheat.
Some farmers aro not content to wait
uutil the wheat has had time to thoroughly
cure, before they get thrashing
" on tho brain," and thrash they must.
They will not stack tho wheat and let it j
go through tho " sweat," but will rush
aloug and thrash it out of tho shock, be-1
lieving, no doubt, that they aro managing
very economically. Most practical
fnrmpM Jnintr fKnf fltn sfaifTrinfr nf rrV>pnf
improves the color and plumpness of
tho grain, and adds materially to its
market value, yet suffer themselves to
do otherwise, under a false theory that
needs no argument to prove it such.
Many are now thrashing out of tho
shock, even while the wheat is a little
^ damp, the weather very hot; "o much
so, in fact, that neither man nor beast
can stand to do full work; yet the thrashing
goes on; the wheat is bulked in tight
box cars, more than three hundred bushels
to each car, and by the time the
wheat reaches the market it is smoking
?almost red-hot?and of course is almost
worthless. This quality of grain
is, to somo extent, like a two-edged
sword, it cuts both ways. The owner
realizes very little for his work, time,
and labor; yet this same damaged wLeat
has a tendency to reduce the price, and
doe3 to a large extent control the values
of all the better qualities. We have
heretofore advised our readers to stack
their wheat. Wo again repeat it.
Never send wheat or anything else to
market before it is in prime condit:on.
It will pay not only to stack tho wheat,
but it will pay to pass the same through
a crood fan before sending' to market.
No thrasher that we have over seen will
clean grain perfectly. While many of
them do good work, and whilo they
clean amazingly well, we are satisfied
from no little experience that it pays to
run even the bestcleaneu wheat through
a good fanning mill. One word more.
Don't sow your wheat as it comes from
the thrasher; screen it thoroughly, taking
out all the " cheat," and we are satisfied
yon will not regret following this
sort of advice.?Journal of Agriculture

Probably the most effective weapon
for the destruction of the potato beetle
is to be found in every properly furnished
household?a flour sieve. Supply
it with a cover and a handle made
oi ft green rou (because it will bend
easily) of a suitable size for the hand,
bout in the shape of the letter U inverted,
attached at each end to opposite
sides of the sieve, the part to hold by
immediately over center of sieve and
about sixteen iuches above the bottom
of it, and it is completed. Use paris
green thoroughly mixed with sifted
flour, in proportions of one ounce of
the former to one and one-half pounds
of the latter. Hold the sieve charged
with the poisonous mixturo in left hand
over a hill of potatoes, and with a stick
in the right hand rap it hard enough to
produce light discharges of poison, and
proceed in this manner, taking two rows
at a time, till the work is done. A man
can probably in this way poit.on about
three acres a day. If it is desired to
make a sieve, the proper proportions
are about ten inches inside diameter and
four inches depth, and square in shape,
bccause most easily made. The wire
gauze for bottom should count twenty
wires each way to the iuch; total cost
about forty cents.
Orchard and Nursery.
Young trees will suffer from the hot
sun and dryness. See to the mulch if
one is not already put on, loso no time
in applying it, and replace any that may
have been disturbed by the wind or
otherwise. If a young tree ?eems to be
suffering givo it an extra mulch, and if
it has a long, naked tiunk tie some hay
or straw around to shade it.
Grafts set this spring need attention.
If they pu- h too vigorously, pinch the
end out; if too many buds start, remove
useless shoots. Seo that shoots from
the stock do not rob the graft.
Seedlings, especially of forest trees,
will suffer from the hot sun. and must be
shaded. A lattice work of laths or
other slats is best; a good substitute is
to stick leafy branched all over tho bed.
day's delay in killing them greatly increases
the task.
Thinning tho frait is especially necessary
on youug trees disposed to overbear.
Removing half or more of the
crop to be m irKeted is found to pay in
the increased price of better fruit.?Agriculturist.
Bone illauure.
Tho question arising in tho American
farmers' club as to tho reasou why bone
manure is so valuable, a member replied
that the great utility of bones as a manure
arises from tho large amount of
phosphates which they contain. On all
pastures which have been long fed the
phosphate of lime is exhausted. It is
.M8tanUy taken irom me eartn in tne
^ra8S to form tho bone, tho muscle and
the milk of animals. Of the earthy
matter in bones nearly five-sixths consist
of phosphate of lime and magnesia.
Nitrogen is also abundant, and of course
ammonia., A few bushels of bone dust
will often quite restore old, worn-out
pastures. The aslies of all grains are
cry rich iu phosphate of lime, which
goes to prove the importance of furnishing
this element for their use.
One farmer recommended a mixture
of crushed bones and ashes, or loached
ashes, as a valuable top-dressing.

A DEATH-DEALING BURGLAR.
A Brooklyn merchant Murderously Attacked
by a Burglar, who .Subsequently
Frill* In 111* Endeavor (o l>rnpe, nnd
Produces ('oncunslon o( the Brnlu.
About three o'clock in the morning
Mr. Sylvester Hondlow, a wealthy merchant
residing on Brooklyn Heights,was
aroused from his sleep by a noise on the
parlor floor. Dressing hastily, he hurried,
unarmed, down stairs and entered
tho front parlor from the hallway, thence
he crossed rapidly into his library in the
rear. No sooner had Mr. Hondlow entered
than a man sprung upon him with
a hatchet and dealt him four violent
blows with tho weapon upon the side of
the head, and three upon the shoulders.
Though a man well advanced iu years,
Mr. Hondlow strugglod d&sperntely with
the burglarious assassin for several minutes,
when the ruffian desisted and fled,
the noise of tho deadly encounter having
aroused the entir* household and
brought them upon the scene.
The cries of the frightened inmates of
the domicile on beholding tho injured
gentleman bathed in blood, which flowed
in great streams from his wounds, attracted
tho attention of a neighbor, and
he started off, on learning the cause of
the noise, in quest of a policeman, to
whom he communicated the circumstance.
Dr. Kissam was immediately I
summoned to attend to Mr. Hondlow.
Sergeant John Eason was called to go to
the house, and ou reaching there he
found several officers. Tho sergeant
found that a pane of glass had been
broken in the window of tho extension
on the second floor, which looked out
on the roof of au inclosuro below. He
found that the silver on the side bureau
in the front basement had been disturb
ea. out tnere -was no sign 01 tne Durgiar.
On retracing his steps the sergeant
went out on the roof of extension, and
there he found a few spots of blood.
As he came to the window of the houso
adjoining, which is the residence of Mr.
Charles R. Storrs, ho noticed that a
pane of glass had been broken there, and
that the house had been entered. The
occupants of the mansion wero unconscious
ox the fact that they had entertained
such a desperate and unbidden
guest till the officer notified them. A
very careful and thorough seai ch of the
house was instituted, when it was found
that the burglar had taken a quantity of
silverware, and had opened a bottle of
[ wine, of which he had drank about two!
thirds. Sergeant Eason then went out
into the yard, and on looking around the
corner of the base of the extension he
saw lying on the flagging the form of a
man. He caught hold of the fellow,
when the latter jumped to his feet and
struggled with his captor for a couple of
minutes, and the officers coming up he
was firmly secured. The hatchet with
I which he cut Mr. Hondlow was found in
the parlor whore lie dropped it. When
the three officers were about the prisoner,
after they first secured him, ho
exclaimed: "Don't hit mo and I will
go with you." The sergeant, recognizing
the importance of having the ruffian
fully identified by Mr. Hondlow,
brought him, with the permission of the
doctors, before his victim. The injured
man sat upright, and, extending both
hands toward the burglar, ho exclaimed,
with much animation: " You scoundrel 1
you! That is the man who struck
mo I" As the patient said this he worked
himself rapidly toward the edge of
the bed and made an effort as though
about to get up and renew the conflict
with bis would-be assassin. "Are you
positive about your identification of the
prisoner?" again asked the sergeant.
" Yes; that is the man," replied the patient.
The prisoner was marched to the station
house, where, in answer to the
questions put to him, ho said that he is
anativo of Italy; that his name is William
Kellow, thirty-two years of age, a
luborer L y occupation, and that he resided
in New York. The prisoner had
on a coat belonging to Mr. Storrs, and
in the Dockets of the coat were found
875 worth of napkin rings, spoons and
furks. On his feet was a pair of boots
which also belonged to Mr. Storrs.
After arriving at the station house the
burglar fell unconscious, and his pulse
ran down as low as i'orry-eight, the
symptoms developed bciug tiiost; of concussion
of the brain. An ambulance was
j procured and Kellow was conveyed to
the city hospital, where two pohuemen
were assigned to the duty of guarding
him. The injury to the brain was sustained,
it is believed, by falling from
the roof of the extension at Mr. Storrs'
resiuence to the flagging in the yard beneath,
a distance of eight or ten feet.
. The man died the nest d:;y.
An examination of the injuries sustained
by Mr. Hon^low revealed the
fact that the outer wall or casing of tho
skull has been fractured, and several
pieces of tho bone were removed by the
surgeons in attendance. Thoy state that 1
the inner lining of the skull is intact,
and,-relying upon tho vigorous constitution
of their patient, despite the disadvantage
of accumulating years, they
hope for his ultimate recovery, though
they admit that his condition is at present
critical.
Playing with the Feelings.
The London Olobe says : As a train
was passing through the open country
near Kellswater some of the passengers
saw a man running across a field by the
side of the line. Presently he halted,
presented his piece and fired, when down
fell another man standing at a few yards'
distance. No sooner was this poor
creature prone on tno ground tnan tne
miscreant with the gnn proceeded to
belabor his victim over the head and
shoulders with its stock, by way, it was
supposed, of finishing his murderous
work. The passengers in the train were,
of course, greatly pained at being compelled
to witness 6uch a cold blooded assassination
without the possibility of interference.
As soon as they reached
the next station a body of thorn rushed
to the telegraph wires, and in r>. few minutes
the police authorities were set on
the track of the supposed murderer.
Great was the alarm throughout the entire
district, and especially sit Belfast,
owing to the fatal occurrence having
happened on the eve of tho momentous
twelfth of July. For all that people
could tell, the tragedy might provo the
beginning of wholesale slaughter. The
police, therefore, lost not a moment in
setting .inquiry on foot, aud a whole
regiment of inspectors and sub-injectors
hurried to Kellswatcr, intent on apprehending
the supposed murderer.
All in vain this commendable display of
energy. Ho never would be apprehended
in this world for one very good

Not So Pleasant.
In the summer of 181G three men living
about three miles above Niagara
falls saw a boar swimming in the river.
Thinking ho would bo a capital prize
they started for him in a large, substantial
log canoe or " dugout." When they
overtook him ho seemed quite obliged
for their attention, and quietly putting
his paws on the side of the canoe, drew
himself into it, notwithstanding that
they vehemently belabored him with
their uaddles. As he came in on one
side two of the men went into tho water
on the other side. Tho third, who may
be called Fisher, could not swim, aud

rassed. Much to his relief the anima.
deliberately sat down in the bow of the
canoe facing him. As the noise of the
rapids and roar of the falls reminded
him that they were ominously near,
Fisher resolved to take advantage of the
truce and pull vigorously for the shore.
But when he begun to paddle the bear
begun to growl his objections, enforcing
them at the same time with an ominous
grin. Fisher dt-sisted for a while, but
feeling their constant and insidious approach
to the rapids, he tried ngain to
use his paddle. Bruin then raised bis
note of disapprobation an octave higher,
and made a motion as if he intended to
get down and "go for" him. The men
who swum ashore soon, however, reappeared,
in anotner canoe, with a
loaded musket, shot the bear, and ended
Fishey's terrible suspense. Bruin
weighed over threo hundred pounds.?

MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING.
Mrs. James Taylor bad been crying
for tbe last balf hour, and, like tbo lady
in tbe play, seemed determined to "weep
a little longer." Yes, tbe very minute
ber lord and master, with hat in band,
had closed the street door, did the tears
begin to fall. Countless, innumerable,
not to be mentioned, were the bright
drops?and nobody knows bow long
| they would have lasted, bad not voices
on the piazza, and a summons at the
bell, dispatched Maggie, the maid, to
the door and Mrs. Taylor's cambric handkerchief
to her eyes. In five minutes
more thoso eyejwere as cloar and bright,
the voice as gay, the laugh as musical,
as if there were no such things as grief
or care in the world, or, if so, little
merry Mrs. James Taylor cast them to
the winds and defied them.
And what had she, tbe newly married
j lady, tho three months' bride, been crying
about ? Why, really, it was too riI
diculous to tell; and she had pouted
I and smiled, and smiled and pouted, for
some time beforo sho had actually made
up her mind to weep ; but she had a distressing
suspicion that her husband (he
i was a very good husband, there was no
j denying that) did not love her.
Now, all the time that she was ingeniously
tormenting herself, racked to the
I WL~y OUUl HHU UlOUl UOU UUU UA.KJ 1 Uiuur
i tion, the object of her misery, James
Taylor, was racing to his offico as if he
had on seven-leagued boots, wishing the
client away who was to detain him that
evening from his jewel at home, his precious
little wife. Love her! Why, he
adored her. The very sky und air had
changed since this prettiest, dearest,
most bewitching of women had blessed
j his home.
I Not love her ! Why, the very kitten
! on tho hearth knew better. What if he
! had never told her so; it was entirely n
piece of supererogation; it would have
been like saying that skies were blue nnd
flowers were fair. And yet silly Mrs.
Taylor, for tho lack of something bettor
to do, iiad actually persuauea ana wept
herself into this idea.
With her visitors her lachrymose mood
vanished, and after their departure ?he
sat absolutely contriving ways and
means to annoy this good-for-nothing
husbaud of hers, nutil he was forced to
display some kind of emotion?rage, if
he would not lovo her. Nerved by the
blissful thought, sho closed doors and
windows, for he would not be homo till
past one, and laid her head on her pillow,
with a rich flush on her oheek, and
tho brightest of smiles around her lovely
mouth.
Little did Mr. James Taylor think, as
ho bestowed a fond, admiring glance on
the sweet face, what havoc and destruction
the wily lady had been plotting
against his peace. There is nothing
like a trifle to overturn one's philosophy
?so argued Mrs. Taylor?one can summon
quantities of resolution for great
events, but little, every-day annoyances
who can endure with stoicism ? She
was determined to change her husband;
perhaps he would absolutely scold her.
What a triumph 1 Mr. Taylor, the
evening before, hail requested his
precious wife to have breakfast precisely
at seven, for the same business which
took him out then would occupy him
the next morning; ho must positively
bo at his office atlialf-past seven o'clock.
But Mrs. Taylor gave no directions of
the kind, consequently seven, quarterUrtlfl-?rwl

or token of tho meal. Mr. Taylor did
not pretend to interfere with tho servants,
so he went out in the garden in
search of his wife. She was among the
roses, looking as blooming, innocent and
unconscious as possible.
"Fanny," said Mr. Taylor, in the
mildest of tones, " breakfast is not
ready, and I am in a great hurry to go.
You forgot to speak of it last night,
didn't you ?"
"You cannot certainly expect mo to
remember everything, James," returned
his wife, with a most indignantly remonstrating
expression. "I did notsny a
word about it."
Mr. James Taylor did not mako tho
smallest reply to this amiable remark
from his little bride, but turned a d
went in tho house. A full quarter of an
hour elapsed beforo Mr. Taylor was
summoned to table, aad she loitered ien
minutes longer by wuy of teasing liim
to the uttermost, then making hiappearance,
thinking it quito possible that
she might find her npou<=o with a whip
in his hand, or at all events dispatching
his meal alone.
But he sat quietly reading the paper,
as if there were no such things as impatient
clients or procrastinated engagements
in the world. Fanijy bit her lips
with vexation, and proceeded to pour
out his coffee. If he had only been
L sulky it would have been something
gained, and she tormented him with
questions in hopes of discovering this;
but he answered her as pleasantly as
usual, and at length, petitioning to be
excused, ho bid her good morning in
the blandest of tones.
Mr$. Taylor felt quite happy when he
departed, who can doubt it ? She had
been making herself exceedingly disagreeable,
and all to no purpose. "Faint
heart never won," thought she, at
length; "I'll try it again."
"Fanny, did you send Jobn for my
coat yesterday ?'" asked Mr. Taylor, one
Sunday morning.
"What co.it?" replied she, by way of
gaininp time.
" The new one, at tho tailor's. You
know I told you "?
"I do wish, James, you would not be
forever telling me," she interrupted,
" but give your orders yourself; they
tormfliit me to death."
"Well, it is not a matter of the h-ast
consequence," replied the patient husband;
"if you will let mo walk to
cliurch with you in this old one, I don't
care."
Mr. Taylor was extravagantly fond of
plants, and had a magnificent cactus in
full bloom ; it was a raro sji -cius, and
this was tho first flowering, Fanny had
been considering the plan for some time,
and one day a suitable opportunity presenting
itself when they were on the
piazza together, managed to loso her
footing and fell, turning the vase over
and completely crushing tho flowers in
her descent.
"Victory!" thought she, as sho beheld
his distressed, anxious face. But no !
it was not tho cactus, but his good-fornoihing
wife ho was tenderly picking up
and feeling so anxious about.
"Ho certainly must lovo mo a little
ufter all," thought she; "but I don't
i. low, he is very kind, and would proba
iy havo been just as conccrned if the
accident had happened to any one
else."
"I'll go home," sobbed Mrs. James
Taylor that eveuing. " I'll see how this
horrid man can livo without me."
"How long do you intend to remain?"
asked her husband, very coolly, when
informed of her determination.
" Oh! six months," shv- replied. " I
am tired to death of staying here, and it
will bo so nico to see William and Frank
and all of them. My cousin Archie is
there, too, and wo will have famous
rides and drives."
"I hope yon will enjoy yourself," rernaaked
her husband, quietly. F^nny
relinquished her teasing operations gradually
before her departure?restrained
rom overwhelming hira with questions
and remarks when he was in a flerious
mood, and playing sad when he was inclined
to be merry. She would no longer
throw down his now hat (for which
he had a particular affection) a dozen
times a day, and pretend that it was entirely
accidental, and invite disagreeablo
company when he was least in the
mood to bear it. It required all her resolution
to leave her husband; she felt
wretched and unhappy at the very idea,
and would walk around the house thinking
of his loneliness, and wondering
whether he would ever feel sad or remember
her abominable behavior when
she had gone.
Her very heart was bursting the morning
she left, and it was with the greatest
difficulty that she could restrain her
tears. Yet one never would have suspected
it, for she was gay to an excess.
"I leave you with the comfortablo
conviction that you'll not miss mo at
all," she said, lightly, as her husband assisted
her into the carriage.
Ho smiled, said "Good bye," and the
horso started. Mr. James Taylor would

Fanny cried all tho way home, and her
pretty faco was so swollen and disfigured
that she did not even see Archie or
half of them till the following morning.
"I'll punish him by not writing,"
thought she; "he never even asked me
if I would!"
And write she did not for a fortnight,
till at length, growing desperate to hear
from him, she penned an epistle abounding
in questions and directions, orders
and counter-orders, with a feeble hope
at the end that it might find him
flourishing. He replied immediately by
a very kind letter, not love-like, but in
unison with the rest of his conduct,
affectionate, proper and amiable. Fanny
waited a fortnight again, then sent for
him to take her home. And now was
Mr. James Taylor, if he had the least
love for his amiable helpmate, to undergo
a slight purgatory.
She was absent when he arrived (of
course she intended to be), riding with
her cousin Archie, and walked her horse
leisurely up the avenue talking gayly to
her escort till her husband reached her
side. Nothing could bo more coolly
well bred than their meeting. No rapture
or emotion on either side. She
"hoped he was well" had she enjoyed
her visit?" "yes; more than tongue
could tell."
" i aon t oeneve lie is wen, tnougnt
Fanny, as she glanced at him afterward ;
1 " how pale and thin he has grown, and
he looks more melancholy than ever. I
1 wonder what is the matter with him,"
' murmured Fanny to herself. It was
1 surprising how many plans Fanny had
' with her cousin during the three -days
that her husband remained. She had not
I been particularly civil to him bofore,
1 for ho was an old lover, and she did not
care to be ; but now thero really was no
end to the jests and excursions thoy got
up together; she gayest of the gay, and
he carrying her wild fancies with all tli?
1 zeal in the world.
"I don't think James looks either
i well or happy, Fauny," said her mother
1 one day.
"Don't you?" returned Fanny, and
she felt quite charmed at the idea, and
racing after lier husband, who was at
the foot of the garden, sho proposed
ber mother's remark without tho slight1
est circumlocution. He looked for :i j
;! moment at her animated face, then replied
gravely that "ho was perfectly
, well." Fanny was uncertain again, yet
rather troubled.
"You must go and talco a walk with
mo, James, down by the river," she
said, " whero we used to go before Wl.
were married;" aud putting her hand in
his arm sho continued, " now you munt.
go?I have you captive, surrender at
discretion."
Never had Mrs. James Taylor been
more charming than on this identical
afternoon. She behaved (there is no
denying it) more like a wild bewitching
child than a decorous married lady; but
still she was very sweet. Her husband
yielded himself unhesitatingly to tho
magic influence of her smiles.
" Take care! Don't go there, Fanny,"
he exclaimed, as eho stooped over tho
bank of the river.
" Bnt I must have them."
Sho returned, and bending an inch
! further lost her balance and fell in. Sho
heard a deep, agonizing groan, had a
sense of suffocation, and lost all consciousness.
When she revived, she was
on the bunk of the river, her husband
oenaing over ner ciasping ner nauiis,
pressing her wildly to his heart, and
with every tender and endearing term
entreating her to look Tip and speak to
him again ; but she could not. Sho felt
deathly faint and relapsed into a sort of
half stupor and heard his agonized cries,
his vain appeals for help, with naught
but tho wind and leaves to hear his wild,
desperate misery, and with that deathly
sickness yet upon her, Fanny had u de
licious sensation at hor heart. Ho loved
her, thero was no doubt about it now,
loved her madly, devotedly, and even if
she had died in the cold river, sho would
j not have exchanged for her life that moment's
bliss.
" But, my dear Fannie, how could
you think I did not lovo you?"exclaimed
Mr. James Taylor, no longer cold, dnll
and silent, but as enthusiastic and candid
as his wife could desire.
" How could I think otherwisereI
plied Fanny, smiling faintly, for sho was
j yet very weak. "Yon nover told me
! that you did."
"Told you?" exclaimed Mr. Taylor,
j and the tone was sufficient. " It shall
! entirely bo the burden of my song for
j tho rest of my life," he continued, "and
| you must be content to hear it for your
j abominable suspicions."
"I certainly shall be, James Taylor,"
j replied his wife.
The Yacht Race.
j
I The ocean yacht raco for the Bennett
i Chfillencro cud was becun on Thursdav
; aud terminated Friday morning be"i
tween twelve and ono o'clock, the Idler
j being the winner, the Wanderer second
and tho Tidal Wavo third. It was in
i many respects ono of the prettiest races
I ever witnessed, and worthy of tho best
I days of yachting. Thero were five fine
! schooners entered?tho Idler, Wander!
er, Tidal "Wave, America aud tho Conni
tess of DufFerin, the first four well
i known for their former achievement1',
! tho fifth a vessel from which greutthings
were expected. The Idler, Wanderer
j and Tidal Wuvo maintained their good
! reputation, as would tho America but
| for a misfortune; but the Countess ot
j Dufforin, it must be said, disappointed
I everybody who saw her from tho beginI
ning of tho regatta until she dropped far
! astern on Friday night on her homeward
| bound passage. The did not sail well
either on a wind or going free, and ceri
tainly did not manifest any of those
j points of which she must bo possessed
j to compete successtuiiy wicn me maae- i
j leine iu the approaching struggle for I
the Queen's cup. Still a great deal of
allowance may bo made for h.r having
just como off tho screw dock the morning
of tho race and her additional ballast
havJng been put on board a few
hours before she started. And ifc may
be further claimed tbatthis was only her
trial;rip, and that her gear was nut in
apple pie order which would secure its
working to the best advantage. All this
admitted, tho plain facts remain thuttho
America would have beaten her several
hours had nou accident prevented her,
and tho Tidal vVavo did beat her easily,
notwithstanding that the latter never
used all even of her working canvai, and
was obliged to scud under bare poles for
three hours on Friday night, owing to
streps of weather.
The Staare.
Fanny Kemble, in her old af;e, writes
thus of the profession in which aho obtained
fame: " Acting is a business
which is incessent excitement and factitious
emotion, unworthy of a man; a
business whicli is public exhibition, unworthy
of a woman. Never havo I
presented myself beforo an audience
without a shrinking feeling of reluctance,
or withdrawn from their presence
without thinking the excito:i;ent I had
undergone unhealthy, and the personal
exhibition odious."
Thero is a Chicago girl who, if she
thinks sho is going to bo beaten in a
game of croquet, will always fall down
in a fit over the last hoop.
THE PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN.
The Letters ot Acceptance ot Messrs.
Tllden and Hendricks.
Gov. Tilden, of Now York, in accepting the
nomination tendered him by tho Democratic
National Convention, saysTho convention,
before making its nominations, adopted a declaration
of principles, which aa a whole seems
to mo a wise exposition of the necessities of
our qpuntry, and of the rofornn needed to
briti g back the government to its true functions,
to restoro purity of administration, and
to ronew the prosperity of tho people. Tha
necessity of a reform "in the scale of
publio oxpense?Federal, State aud municipal"?and
"in the modes of Federal taxation,"
justifies all tho prominence given to it
in the declaration of the St. Louis convention.
Tho Federal taxes of tho last eleven years
roach tho gigantio sum of four thousand five
hundred millions of dollars. Local taxation
has amounted to two-thirds as much more.
The vast aggregate is not loss than seven
thousand five hundred millions. He says that
in prosperous times even tho daily wauts of
industrious communities press closely upoa
their daily earnings. The margiu of possiblo
national savings is at best a amall percentage
of national earnings. Yet now for these
eleven years governmental consumption has
boen a larger portion of the national earnings
than tho whole people can possibly save, even
in prosperous times, for all new investments.

he said 1' we cannot afford the present magnificent
acalo of taxation.'* and to a letter to tho
secretary of the treasury in 1885, in whioh he
said : There is no royal road ror a government
more than for an individual or a corporation.
What you want to do now is to cut down
your expouaes, and Iito within yourinoome. I
would give all the legerdemain of finance and
finaacoring?I would give the whole of it for
tlie old homely maxim: " Live within your
income."
He says thia reform in oxtravagance will bo
resisted at overy step, bat it mast be pressed
persistently, He sayB that in his judgment an
amendment of the Constitution ought to bo
devised separating into distinct bills the appropriations
for the various departments of the
public service, and excluding from each bill all
appropriations for other objects, and all independent
legislation.
the south.
Gov. Tilden says : An aocesaory cause enhancing
tho distress in business is to be
found in tho systematic and insupportable
misgovornment imposed on the States of tbe
South, and it is impossible that tho evils
therein should not reach upon the prosperity
of the whole country. If the duty shall be
assigned to me, ho save, I shall not fail to exercise
the powers with whioh tho laws and the
Constitution of our country olothes its chief
magistrate, to protect all its oitizena, whatever
their former condition, in overy political and
personal right.
ourmncv reform.
The object demanded by tho convention ia a
resumption of Bpecie payments on the logal
tender notes of the United States. That would
not only " restore the public credit and maintain
the national honor," bat it would " establish
a sonnd currency" for the people. The
methods by which this object is to bo pursued,
and tho mem,a L>v which it ifl tn hn attninori. 1
are disclosed by what the convention demanded
for :ho future aud by what it denounced in
the past.
BANK NOTE BEBUMFTION.
Reviewing the condition of the national banks
by statistics, Gov. Tildon says : Tho government
has only to make good its own promises
and the banks can take care of themselves
without distressing anybody. The government
is, therefore, the sole delinquent.
MEANS OF HESUMFTION.
Public economies, official retrenchments
and wise finance, says Oov. Tilden, are tho
means which tho St. Louis convention indicates
as provision for reserves and redemptions.
The best resource is a reduction of tho
c-x jensee of the government below tho income;
:or that ho imposes no new cliargo on tho
people. If, howovpr, the improvidence and
wasto which have conducted us to a period of
failing revenues oblige us to supplement the
results of economies and retrenchments by
some resort to loans, we should not hesitato.
Tho govommont ought not to speculate on its
own dishonor, in order to save the interest on
itu broken promises, which it still compels
private dealers to acoept at a fictitious par.
The highest national honor is not only right,
but would prove profitable. Of the public
debt $985,000,00!) bear interest at six per cent,
in gold, and $712,000,000 at five per ccnt. in
gold. Tho averago interest is 5 58 per cent
A financial policy which should socure tho
highest credit, wisely availed of, ought gradually
to obtain a reduction of ono per cent, in
tUU liuuiUDL uii Uiu^t ui iuu iuauo. ntfcvuj? ui
one per cent, on tho average would be S17,
000,000 a year in gold. That saving, regularly
invented at four and one-half per cent., would,
in lesb than thirty-eight years, extinguish tho
principal. The whole 81,700,000,000 of funded
debt might be paid by this saving alone, without
cost to tho people.
PBOPEII TIME FOR RESUMPTION.
Tho proper time lor resumption ia the time
when wise preparations shall have ripened into
a perfect ability t j accomplish the object with
a certhinty aud ea*e that will inspire confidonoe,
and encourage tho reviving of busiuees.
Tho ea"liest timu in which such a result can be
brought abouc is the best. Even when the
preparations shall have been matured, tho
exact date would have to bo chosen with reference
to iho then existing sUto of trade and
credit operations of our own country, tho
couree of forf-.ipn commerce and the condition
or tuo oxouauyos wun ouior nations. xao |
epecific measures and the xctual dato are mattern
of Icsail, having rofereuco to over changing
c jndition*. They belong co tho domain of
practical administrative statesmanship. A
human inte ligence must bo at tho helm to
discern tho shifting forces of the waters and
the winds. A human haud must )>o on the
helm to f; oJ tho olsmonts day by day, uud
guido to a maitcry over them.
PREPARATIONS FOR RESUMPTION'.
8uch nrt-p.i rations are everything. Withoat
tin-in a legislative command fixing a day, au
offi lal promise fixing a day are shams. They
are worse?' hey are a snare and a delusion to
all who trust them. They destroy all confidence
among thoughtful mon, whose judgment
will at lost sway public opinion. An attempt
to act on such a command or such a
promise without preparation, would end in a
new suspension. It would be a froBh calamity,
prolific of confusion, distrust and distress.
RESUMPTION PLAN OF THE ST. LOUIS PLATFORM.
The St. Louis platform denounces the failures
for clevcu years to muke good tho promise
of tho leyal tender notes, lc denounces the
omission to accumulate "any reBorve for their
redemption." It denounces the conduct
' which, during eleven years of peace, has
made no advances toward resumption, no
preparations for resumption, but instead has
obstructed resumption by wasting our resources
anu oxaauauug mii uur ourpiuo uiuumo , auu, ,
while professing to intend a speedy return to
specie payment*, hf.s annually enaoted fresh
hindrances thereto." Aud having first denounced
the barrenness of the promise of a
day of resumption, it next denounces that
barren promise aa " aa a hindrance " to resumption.
It then demands its repeal ar.d alto demands
tho establishment of "a judicious
systom of preparation" for resumption. It
cannot be doubted that tho substitution of "a
system of preparation " without tho promise of
a day, for the worthless promiso of a day without
" a system of preparation," would bo tho
gain of tho sub.-tancu of resumption in exchange
for its shadow.
Nor is tho denunciation unmerited of that
improvidenoo which, in tho eleven years siuco
the peace, lias consumed 4,500 millions of dollars,
and yot could not afford to give the people
a sound and stable currency. Two and onehalf
per cent, on tho expenditures of these i
eleven years, or oven loss, would have provided
all tho additional ooin needful to re- I
sumption.
BUSINESS DISTRESS.
lieferring to tbo distress felt in business,
Governor Tilden ra\B that uncertainty is the
proliSo parent of mischiefs in all business.
Nevor were its evils moro felt than now. Men
do nothing because tli^y aro unable to rnako any
calculations on wl ieh tiiey can safely rely.
Tney undoriako iiutLiog tiscauso they foar a
loss in everything tliey would attempt. They
st.)p and wait. The merchant dares not bny
for tbo futuro consumption of his customers.
Tho manufacturer dares not make fabrics
which may not refund his outlny. * * *
The public mind will no longer accept ehama.
It has Buffered enough from illusions. An insincere
policy increases distrust. An unstable
policy increases uncertainty. The peoplo
need to know that the government is moving
in tho diroalion of ultimate safety and
prosperity, and that it is doing so thrcugh
prudent, safe, and conservative methods,
which will bo suro to inflict no new sacrifice
on the busuiess of thecountiy. Then tho inspirations
of now hope and well founded confidence
will hasten tho rftrtoriug processes of
nature, and prosperity will begin to roturn.
CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
Gov. Ti'deu refers at length to civil service
reform and says: The fi:>t ?top in reform is
the elevation of tho standard by which tho appointing
power selects agenta to exocute
official trusts. Next iu importanco in a conscientious
fidelity in the exorcise of tho authority
to hold to account aud displace untrustworthy
or incapable subordinates. Tho public interest
in an honest, chilled peiformanco of official
trust must not bo sacrificed to tho usufruct of
tho incumbents. After these immediate steps,
whiah will insure tho exhibition of better examples,wo
may wisely go 011 to tho abolition of
unnecessary offices, and ill.ally to the patient,
careful organization of a better civil service
syptooi, under the tests, wherever practicable,
of 1 roved competency and efficiency.
My cjiividion is that no refoim of the civil
service in tliirj country will bo complete and
permanent until its chief magistrate is constitutionally
disqualified for re-election; experience
having repeatedly exposed the futility of
self-imposed restrictions by candidates or incumbents.
Thrcugh thia solemnity only can
he be effectually deliverod from his greatest
temptation to misuse tho power and pacronago
with which the executive is necessarily charged.
CONCLUSION.
Educated in the belief that it is the first duty
of a citizen of the republic to take his fair allotment
of care and trouble in public affairs, I
have, for forty years, as a piivato citizen, fulfilled
that duty. Though occupied in <iu unusual
degree during all that period with the
concerns of government, I havo never acquired
tho habit of offiei?l lifo. When, a year and a
half ago, I entered upon my present trust, it
waa in order to consummate reforms to which
I had already devoted several of the beat yearn
of my life. Knowing aa I do, therefore, from 1
fresh experience, how great the difference is i
between gliding througt^an official routine and
working out a reform of systems and policies, '
it is impossible for me to contemplate what '
needs to be done in the Federal adminiatra- j
tion without an anxious senee of the difficulties
of the undertaking. If summoned by the
suffrages of ray countrymen to attempt tbis ]
work, I shall omleavor, with God's help, to be . i
tbe efficient instrument of their will.

Governor Hendnckn, in accepting the nom- <
ination for the Vice-Presidency, says in conclusion
: It will be seen that I am in entire J
accord with the platform of tho convention by <
which I havo been norainatod as a candidate
for the office of Vice-President of the United
Statos. Permit mo, in conclusion, to express {
my satisfaction at being associated with a can- 1
didato for the Presidency who is first among ,
his equals as a representative of the spirit and ,
of the achievements of reform. In his official
career as tho exocutivo of the great Stito of I
New York, he has, iu a comparative'y thort |
period, reformed tho publio service and reduced
tho publio burden, so as to have earned at
once tho gratitude of his State and tho admira- 1
tion of tho country. The people know him :
to bo thoroughly in earnest; ho has shown ,
himself to bo possessed of powers and quali
tita which fit him, in aa eminent degree, for 1
tho great work of reformation which thia :
country now needs; n.d it he *li;i!l be ohoaeu ;
by the people to the high office of President
of the United States, I believe that tho day of 1
his inauguration will be tho beginning of a
new era of peace, parity and prosperity in all
departments of oar government. I am, gentltmen,
your obedient servant.

A Mexicau Rider.
A young Mexican horsebreaker named
Leon, who had been in England about a
month, undertook to ride one hundred
miles in five consecutive hours at the
Alexandra park, and succeeded in accomplishing
the feat in three minutes
and seven seconds less than the stipulated
time. The conditions were that
ho should ride the racoon the ten horses
which ho had brought over from Mexico
with him, and which wero not many
months since wild 011 the Mexican prairies.
Somo of them, however, were not
yet sufficiently dccilo for him to trust
to them, and ho was consequently compelled
to useonlystven horsed,andasone
of these fell lamo before he accomplished
half the distance, tho number was
then reduced to six. Leon elected to
ride on the gravel trotting track of the
nark iiistoad of on t be grass of tho recourse,
11 nd us the latter was very hard
ho no doubt exercised a wise discretion,
lio is a well built man, rather under
the average height, and weighs something
under ten and one-hnlf stone.

Answers to Correspondents.
In answer to "Alphabetical,"{in your laet
issue, for a remedy for consumption in its first,
stages, I can recommend Dr. Pierce'e/Golaen
Medical Discovery," if taken acoording to
directions, for it has been thoroughly tried in
my family, and the results were glorious.
" Alphabetical" must not ixpect one bottle to
do the work?my wife took three bottles before
she cjuld disoover any change, but after the
third bottle every dose seemed to strengthen
tbe luugs, and now sue is well and hearty. If
" Alphaoi-tical" will write to me I will get witnesses
to the above. Henby fl. M. Pattox.

Gentlemen?It is with feelings of gratitude
tbat I place before you&Bimple statement of
my sufferings and core from the use of thi
Peruvian 8yrup. I am forty years of age, and
my occupation is that of a map engraver.
About fifteen years ago I was attaoked with
what I suppose was a disease of the spine. I
could not walk erect, owing to a groat weakness
v.hich I experienced at the email of mv
back. My digestion became impaired, and by
degrees my whole system became deranged.
I suffered in this way for seven years, and
then placed myself in the hands of eminent
physicians. They treated me with mercury
and many other strong remedies, but I grew
worse instead of better.
In the spring of 1857, there appeared upon
' 1- A . iAr. 5
ray UaCft ftUU OIUU KTIU 10150 OUDVOOIWC, OUU a\j
tliii time I was also suffering from a very bal
fistula; my whole system became utterly prottrate-1,
when I was advised to try the Peruvian
Hyrup. I commenced using it, and at ono
expei ienced great relief. I have taken three
bottles of ir, and ovcry traoe of my former
camplainte have left me. My sys'.em has regained
its strength, my appetite has returned,
and I feol myself completely renewed in age
and vigor. In a word, my health is now perfect,
and I can truly say that I was never able to di>
more work, and with greater ease to myself,
than ar this timo.
* Yours respectfully, James P. Cox.
Vegetine has never failed to effect a
oure of all mercurial diseases. *
Qreat harm and discomfort is caused
by the use of purgatives which gripe and rack
the system. Parsoni' Purgative Pills are free
from' all impnre matter, and are mild and
health-giving in their operation.
At this season of the year cramps aL<l
pains in the otomacli and bowels, dysentery,
dtarihoa, etc., aro quite common, and should
be checked at once. Johnson's Anodyne Liniment
is the befit article that can be used in all
such cases, and should bo kept in every family.

Many who are suffering from tbe effocts of tbe warm
weather and ore debilitated, are advised by physicians
to take moderate amounts of whisky two or three time]
during the day. In a little while those who adopt this
ad rice frequently lnorease the nambar of " drinks," an 1
in Ume become oonflrmed inebriates. A beverage which
will not create thirst for Intoxicating liquors, and which
is intended eepeolally for the benefit of debilitate;)
persons, whether at home or abroad, Is Dr. Schenek's
Sea Weed Tonio. Containing the jolces of many msdlclnai
herb?, this preporatloudces not create an appetite
for tbe Intoxicating oup. The nourishing and llfMUt
porting properties of many vnluable natural productions
contained In it and well known to medical men have a
must etreniitaenlng influence. A single bottle of tho
Tonic will demonstrate ita valuable qualities. For
debility arising from slcknass, over exertion from any
cause wha'ever, a wtneflaaaful of Sea Weed Tonic token
after meals will strengthen the stomach and create an
appetite for wholessme food. To all who ore about
leaving their homes, we desire to say that the excellent,
effects jt Dr. Schenck's s^nsonable remedies, Sea Weed
Tonto and Mandrake I'llli, are particularly evlden'.
when taken by those who are Injuriously effected by a
change of water and diet No person should leavehome
wltfcont taking a supply of these safeguard* alotg. For
