During all my observation-and that has not been very limited in the last five years-this fact has been plainly manifest, to wit : that where most reading was done among Pa trons, there the Grange was most prosperous. The reason for this is very plain. The principles and pur poses of the Grange are better under stood. These need only to be well understood to be highly appreciated by all intelligent people, and the bet ter understood the more highly val ued. This is true, not only of mem bers of the Order and all farmers, but of all good citizens of all other classes, whether industrial, commercial or pro fessional. I mean by good citizens, honest, intelligent men and women who love good society, sound morals, a high standard of general intelli gence, general prosperity and general happiness ; citizens who really and truly love their country ; because the principles and purposes taught by the Grange prepare and provide for all this. Let him who doubts, examine, and thoroughly investigate for him self, and we have no fears of the ver dict of honest intelligence. Yea, more ! We feel fully warranted in asserting, that the more thorough the investigation, and the more intelligent the investigator, the more clear and emphatic will be the verdict in favor of the Grange. 1 All opposition to the G.range, from whatsoever quarter or source it may come, when traced to its real source, will be found to have its origin in ig norance, prejudice, or a morbid and unreasoning and unreasonable selfish ness. The greatest danger to the permanency and perpetuity of the Grange is found within its member ship, not from outside opposition. If our entire membership thoroughly understood the principles on which the Grange is founded, and the ob jects and purposes in view, as they should do, and which they have every facility for learning with very mod erate efforts, and all were found true to these principles, to their pledges and to each other, which would make true co-operation not only practicable but quite easy, successful, and power ful, all outside opposition would not amount to as much as dry chaff be fore a strong gale of wind. People who do not read are not aware of what disadvantages they la bor under. They are confined to their own ideas and such as they may acci dentally pick up by occasional con tact with a neighbor. The man who reads enlarges his store of knowledge with the thoughts of many other men, which he can compare with each oth er, and with his own, and is thus continually adding to his store of knowledge. Knowledge gives power, and is the "material with which wis dom builds." Who does not know in this age of the world that it is mind that gov erns ? Physical force, no matter where nor when used, nor how great or small it is, is worse than useless unless governed and controlled by mind-intelligence. Who does not know that brain work is better paid than physical labor ? that it is more sure of large remuneration ? But both can be, and should be, performed by the same individual. One need not interfere with the other. Surely there never was a greater mistake than to suppose that a farmer needed to read and study but little. Of all men he needs the most knowledge. No man has so little ex cuse for being ignorant. His crops and his young stock grow while he reads, writes and thinks. What mis erable economy of his time, to slave all the time with the physical man, while the higher and better faculties of his manhood remain comparatively idle and dormant ? This is clearly unnatural and unworthy of ordinary human intelligence. Can any propo sition be more clearly demonstrated than that if farmers labored less phy sically, and more mentally, they would be more successful in business ? They would not only become bettor farmers, have pleasanter homes, more intelligent children, who would not be ashamed of the occupation of their parents, but they would become better citizens because more intelligent, and could discharge the responsible duties of citizenship more wisely and better, the result of which would be better laws, a more equal distribution of bur dens, powers and privileges ; better government, general prosperity and happ>iness of all the people. Will anyb>ody undertakc to say that this is Utopian ? The farmers are a large1 majority of all the people of this coun try, to say nothing of the fact that their productions are the foundation of all wealth, of all prosperity of all other classes of peep IC. Why should slaves of all othcrs-incapable of fix ilg the p-ices on the products of their own labor; to be, as they are to-day, suffering unreasonable taxation with out representation in a Government like ours ? That ths is now the case no sensible man will undertake to deny. Farmers whose fault is it that this is the case ? T. R. ALLEN To MAKE POTATOES MEALY. We have found, from cur own ex perience, that potatoes are very watery from the month of March till the market offers us new ones. In our kitchen n?e overcome the soggy disposition of these valua ble vegetables by soaking them a few hours in cold water and put ting them into hot water to boil, without salt ; then when they are tender nearly all the way through turn the water off and refill the saucepan with cold water. Put in salt and boil till they are quite done; drain off that water also, cover as tightly as possible, and set on the back of the range to steam, lifting the cover for an instant once or twice-; then, with one hand holding down the lid, shake the saucepan gently, quick ly and steadily for a moment, and serve your potatoes hot. If right ly managed they will be like snow balls. MOLDED CRUSHED WHEAT. While the boiled or steamed crushed wheat is still warm, pour it into molds slightly wet, and let it stand several hours, or until quite cold and loose at the edges ; then turn it out on a dish of cor responding shape, an oval mold on a platter, a round mold on a plate or saucer ; if to be dished on the table, use a large mold ; if to be brought on already dished, tea cup molds, served in saucers with trimmings, look nicely. After cooked wheat is once cold, it can not be warmed and mashed up with hot water and then molded ; long steaming only can restore any of its fluidity, but even then it will not be so good nor mold so readily as when first cooked. MARBLED CAKE.-Take one cup of butter and two cups sugar. Beat to a cream, add four eggs, one cup of milk and two teaspoonfuls of sea foam sifted through three cups of flour. W hen the cake is mixed tke out a cupful of the batter and stir into it two tablespoonfuls of rated chocolate wet with a little milk. Fill your pan about an inch deep with the yellow batter, and dro~p upon this in several places a spoonful of the dark mixture, spreading it in broken circles upon the lighter surface. Proceed in this manner until the batter is used up. When cut the cake will be variegated. In making cake always beat the whites and yolks separately. To prevent saddle-galls, the sad dle should be lined with some smooth, hard substance. Flannel or woolen cloth is bad. A hard, finished, smooth rawhide lining, similar to those of the military saddles, is preferable. Then, if the saddle is properly fitted to the horse's back, there will be no alls unless the horse is very ardly used. Galls should be washed with soap and water, and then with a solution of three grains of copperas or blue vitriol to one tablespoonful of water, which will harden the surface, and help to restore the growth of the skin. White hairs growing upon galled spots cannot be pre-, vented. HoP SYRUP FOR A CoUGH.-To one ounce of hops and one pint of water, add one tablespoonful of faxseed. Put all in a saucepan and boil it till reduced one-half. Strain it off, add one-half pint of molasses, or, for those who prefer it a quarter of a pound of brown sugar. Boil this until it becomes a thick syrup. When cold, take a spoonful at a time. WILLIAMSTON, S. C. Rev. S. LANDER, A. M., President. I. LEAIDING PECULIARITIES 1. SE3H-ANNUAL PLAN-The year is divid ed into 2 Sessions of 20 weeks, each follow d by a vacation of 6 weeks. New pupils ean be classiied as well one session as the other. This plan has great advantages, too numerous for our space. 2. ONE-STU-DY FEATRIE.-Instead of seve ral diffcult subjects at once, each pupil pursues one leading study at a time, thus enjoying the benefits, and forming the hab it, ot concentrated attention. The follow ing paragraph will explain the plan. The Regular College Course embraces 4 departments, each containing 6 sessional studies. Each session is divided into 4 sec tions of 5 weeks. The 1st section is devoted to Belles-Letres; the 2d,to Natural Science; the 3d, to Mathematics; the 4th, to Latin. Each pupil has 3 recitations a day in her appropriate department study, 1 in the cor responding elementary branch, and 1 in spelling. This system is developing new advantages almost every day. .

WHAT IS QUEEN'S DELIGHT ' Read the Answer~ It is a plant that grows in the South, and is spe cially adapted to the cure of diseases of that climate, It is NATURE'S OWN REMEDY, Entering at once into the blood, ex ling all scrof ulous, syphilitic, and rheumatic anections. Alone, it it a searching alterative, but when combined with Sarsaparilla, Yellow Dock, and other herbs, it forms Dr. Tutt's Sarsaparilla and Queen's Delight, The most powerful blood purifier known to medical science for the cure of old ulcers, diseased joints, foul discharges from the ears and nostrils, abscesses, skis diseases, dropsy, kidney complaint, evil effects of secret practices, disordered liver and spleen. Its use strengthens the nervous system, imparts a fair com. plexio, and builds up the body with HEALTHY, SOLID FLESH. As an antidote to syphilitic poison it is strongly recommended. Hundreds of cases of the worst type have been radically cured by it. Being purely veg etable its continued use will do no harm. The best time to take it is during the summer and fall; and instead of debility, headache, fever and ae,you will enjoy robust health. . Sold by all drgit. P'rice,i.co. Office, 35 Murray Street, Neork BEER. The Commissioner of Agriculture, in his report for the year 187.5, speaks as follows: "There can be no doubt of the general adulteration of all malt liquors. In England and other countries, where heavy penalties are imposed, and an increasing vigilance practiced to detect and punish such frauds, by a system of inspection of all malt liquors manufactured before exposed to sale, the practice is very common. How much more in this country, where there are no laws on the subject, and no officer to carefully ana lyze the products off the brewery ? Some years ago, Professor Mapes, of New York, analyzed the beer from a dozen different breweries, and all were found adultert.ted with noxious substances. It is said that the sale of drugs to brewers is a profitable part of the trade. This is perfectly infamous. Cocculus indicus, (fish-berry,) nux vomica, (dog-button, from which strychnine is ob tained,) are some of the delectable substances found in beer! These are potent poisons, and the brewer found using them should be drowned at once in one of his own vats. The British Parliament passed a law to pre vent this nefarious business. The following is an extract: 'No druggist, vender of or dealer in drugs, or chemist, or any other person, shall sell or deliver to any licensed brewer, dealer in or retailer of beer, knowing them to be such, or shall sell or deliver to any person on account of,or in trust for, any such brewer, dealer or retailer, any liquor called by the name of or sold for coloring, from whatever material the same may be made; or any material or preparation other than unground brown malt, for the darken ing the color of worts beer, or any molasses, vitriol, honey, quassia, coccolus indicus, grains of paradise, Guinea pepper, or opium, or any extract or preparation of molasses, or any article or preparation to be used in worts beer for or as a substitute for malt or hops; and if any druggist shall offend in any of these particulars, such preparation, &c., shall be forfeited, and may be seized by any officer of excise, and the person so offending shall for feit five hundred pounds.' "Under this law, very many druggists and brewers were brought to grief, and yet the practice continues. Unless the American public are ready to admit the immaculate purity and innocence of American brewers, they must be content, while drinking their beer, to cherish the belief that they are at the same time guzzling some narcotic poison or damaging medicine. In view of the unpre cedented growth of the barley crop; of the great increase of the number of malsters and brewers; of the vast unknown quantities of beer that are drunk in every city and almost every town on the continent, it is the dictate of sound wisdom that the attention of legis lators should be called to tihe subjcet of the adulteration of our malt liquors, and severe penalties should be inflicted as a preventive." JOHN C. SEEGERS' BEER is pure and reliable. Feb. 28, 9-tf. NOTICE. The copartnership heretofore existing between W. G. MAYES and J. N.
