into the parlor, where sat his adored one.
She was gazingsoulfully into the fire thinking
of him, no doubt, but n6t dreaming of
his presence. He tip-toed his approach,
and slyly seizing a stragling hair, which
coyly nestled in its blonde beauty on the
"scruff of her round neck, gently twiched it,
and waited for the start and maidenly
blush, a pleasant surprise. Again he drew
it toward him, and again dia the fair one
continue to look in the fire. "Dear girl,
she knows not of mv presence," he murmured
to himself. "How glad she will be

then she saw that Charlie was there. Shall
we draw a veil over the dreadful picture?
By no means. Charles knew that
she wore false hair, and he knew that she
knew that he knew it. Besides, the girl
was turning thirty and worth millions.

The Tact of Arkansas Women.?
"Who is that horrid whisky bloat?" asked
a lady of an acqaintance, while they stood
viewing the guests at a fashionable reception.
"Which one ?"
"That one with the red mustache and awful

"He's mv husband."
"Oh," laughed the lady, "I see that you
are not sensitive, although she saw vengeance
in the eyes of the insulted lady.
"Several nights ago a friend made a similar ?
remark about my husband and I became
very angry. I declared it would anger any
woman, but my friend said that you, having
the best husband in the world, would not j

of the most ardent legislators known to the

by a well-dressed man he looked upon with ,
suspicion, and never failed to suggest an

carousal, he entered the legislative hall just
as thechaplain was asking divine aid. The
old man took a chew of tobacco and listened
attentively until the chaplain closed his petition
with an effective recitation of the
Lord's prayer.

found necessary for twenty days.' We have
already done enough for the flood sufferers."

COW PEASE FOR FERTILIZING LANDS.
The attention of our farmers has been often
called to the importance of using cow
pease as a means of enriching the soil; but
the subject will be more interesting if some
of the forming subscribers to the Journataml
Review would give their views as to the use
of pease ; and still more so if a much larger
number would make theirown experiments.
No farmer should accept the dicta of any
writer upon agricultural subjects, but only
use them as incentives, and guides to investigation
and experiment.
The time to plant cow pease is near at
hand, and, therefore, our farmers' attention
is again called to the matter. The use of
pea vines for manure is not by any means
a new thing in South Carolina. For many
years it has been known that all plants of
the leguminous family possessed the valuable
property of restoring fertility to impovn.:L<har]
Ian/1 otifl fl-io />nmmnn nense were
used for this purpose upwards of forty, or
more years ago. Clover has been so used in
Europe for centuries, and is now the farmer's
great dependence there, and in the
North. As a fertilizer for small grain, cow
pease are recognized as being of unequalled
value. They benefit the land in two ways,
the vines form a dense shade, and protect it
from the heat of the sun, which, in our climate
is the great exhauster of the soil, and
they contribute a great mass of vegetable
matter that contains the very ingredients of
which exhausted land is deficient. Nature
intends the land to be protected by herbage
during the summer months, and all observant
farmers know that when a field has
been allowed to lie out and be overgrown
with weeds and grass, that its fertility is increased.
The land is said to have rested,
but the true reason for the improvement is.
that it has been well protected from the heat
of the sun, and a large proportion of the
ammonia brought down by rains has been
prevented by the herbage from being evaporated,
and is retained in the soil. In addition
to this is the more important effect,
that the grass and weeds have died on the
land, and added materially to the supply of
vegetable matter in the soil. When planted
in June, pease will produce luxuriant
vines, that densely shade the soil, and when
turned under by the plow, in the Fall, they
add to the soil a large amount of vegetable .

llintMyl f VVUVUIUIIJ^ t? |/V? W> -w w
ash and nitrogen, which are just the constituents
needed by poor lands, and of essential
importance to all small grain.
Careful experiments made by practical
farmers have demonstrated, beyond doubt,
that the yield of grain from any field can
be doubled within a year, by the use of cow
peas. Heretofore it has been the practice to
allow the stubble fields to remain as pastures,
during the summer, for the farm
stock ; and doubtless this will be continued
in those unfortunate counties in our neighboring
States, where the fence law is still in
force. But in progressive South Carolina
this relic of the feudal ages has been abolished,
and our farmers can no longer abuse
their grain fields by pasturing stock upon
them, and perforce these fields, after the
grain is harvested in June, must lie idle for
five months, or be planted in another crop.
Here is the opportunity to make use of cow
pease, both as a fertilizer, and a food crop,
for the ripe pease may be picked in October,
and the vines turned under for manure.
There was formerly a general impression
that some especial merit resided in the
green vines, but the late Dr. St. JulienRavenel
demonstrated that this was a mistake ;
and that the dead vines possessed all the essential
ingredients contained in the green,
and were in every respect equally as efficacious.
Some sandy soils are naturally so poor, or
exnaustea, tnac cow peas wm uol giuw uu
them ; the plants come up, but as soon as
they get three or four inches high, turn yellow,
and die out. Generally the cause of
this is a deficiency of lime in the soil, and it
can be remedied by the application of lime
or ash element. Either of these substances
will insure a crop of vines, which once obtained,
and plowed under, will form a basis
upon which a more luxuriant growth may
be had next year, and thus lead to the permanent
fertility of the soil. In all poor,
sandy soils lime and potash are the elements
most lacking; the application of lime will
cause the growth of pea vines, which in
their turn will supply the potash. About
the middle of June it is customary for farmers
to plant pease between their corn rows,
for the two-fold purpose of making a crop of
Feas, and increasing their supply of forage,
t is good economy to pick the peas, but the
vines should never be pulled off the land ;
it is much more for the farmers' interest to
leave them to die on the land, and increase
its fertility, than to endeavor to increase the
forage. Year after year, the average corn
field supply at the serious expense of the
soil in South Carolina receives no manures
whatever ; all of the grass is kept down ; m
the leaves and tops of the corn are taken and ?ji
all of the pea vines are pulled up ; in fact 2
all of the vegetable matter that the soil pro- >
duces is removed. Under such circum- ?
stances it is no wonder that the average
yield of corn is only about 9 bushels per
acre. If farmers would sow peas thickly in
between the corn rows and not pull up the tic
vines, but plow them under with a large ho
plow in the fall, or winter, they would find wl
that their average yield of corn would be Pc
doubled within a season, or two.?Aiken soi

Success in General Farming.?A cor- an
respondent of the Connecticut Farmer writes stl
as follows upon a very important topic: I no
will admit that there are prosperous special- ^
ists, but who are they ? They are men that ou
make one particular business their life busi- or
ness; educate themselves to it and follow it. re
They don't take one thing this year and another
the next, according as it may pay, or jie
seems as if it might pay, nor whine when a cu
bad year gives them a turn; but all fanners or
can't be specialists, and all farmers can follow W(
general farming and can make it pay. Not ex
have all of our eggs in one basket, but raise ^
horses, oxen, cows, sheep, swine and poultry, ^
and if possible, enough grain to keep them ou
well; then what staple we can without ^
wearing out these bodies of ours making us pe
old men before our time. Following this jn
plan each year, we shall hit somewhere and <ja
lose but little if some crop fails to grow or co
sell well, and none will be telling us that ex
farming does not pay. But shall all enjoy jn
the farm and feel satisfied when, on an occa- 0f
sional leisure day, we peep around to see pi]
how the rest of the world gets along, and
see what a sameness there is to work except vv]
farming?general farming. The good genera!
farmer who carries it on in all its es
branches is a practical business man, and is ^
independent on a small capital.
Too
Much Land.?A great many far- "'
mers, says an exchange, have more land
than they are able to manage properly, r:
They have to depend too much on hired P;
help, and many times they will let part of
n-rn-l.- cm n\r rlofaillf mt.llPr t.hfl.n fff) to
l"c" bu "J v.v-? ?
the expense of hiring. Such farmers would *"
make more clear money by having no more zf
land than they can work advantageously
themselves. It is not economy to stint ^
work on the farm, when crops need to be
putin or when they are to be cultivated or
gathered, any more than it is economy to 1
only half feed or attend to your stock. Ev- sp
erything about a farm needs to be attended be
to at the proper time, just as much as any so
other kind of business. Every business It<
man knows that if he has more business in
than he can manage, or neglects to attend in
to his business at the proper time and an
continues to do so, he will go to the wall th
sooner or later. So it is, in a measure, with m
the farmer: If he has fflore land than he tu
can manage or more stock than he can at- H
tend to, or lets a great portion of his farm m
grow up to weeds or his stock suffer for at- m
tention, he will lose money in the end. bi
Farmers, look into this matter and see if lv
there can't be an improvement made in this 131
direction. m

BLAINE'S PUBLIC RECORD.
A correspondent, whose letter we print
another column, desires some explana>n
of what he considers the slighting of
stile references to Mr. James Q-. Blaine
lich so frequently appear in the Evening
)st, and which he suspects must be in
me degree at least, the product of private
alice. We think he is entitled, as our
aders generally, tosomesuch explanation,
d we shall proceed to make it cheerfully,
irting, however, with the assertion that
> editor or other person connected with
e Evening Post in any capacity has, to
r knowledge, had any difference, quarrel
controversy with Mr. Blaine or has ever
ceived any injury from him whatever or
ars him any personal grudge. Whenever
t is discussed in these columns he is disssed
either as the holder of a public office
as a candidate for a public office. Nor do
^ make any reference to his private affairs
cept when those affairs have or appear
have direct and important relation to nis
aracter as a public man. In fact, all
r comments on him and his doings are
le to the fact that we consider his re-aparance
as a candidate for the highest office
the government, or any other, as an auoious
proceeding, which can only be gcunted
for by supposing him to have an
traordinary and unwarrantable confidence
the popular forgetfulness. It is the duty
all those who do not wish to see the Reiblican
party burdened during the caniss
next summer with the hopeless task of
tiitewashing him, to set forth briefly, now
is boom is becoming so lively, the chargwhich
he will have to answer before he
n be elected to the Presidency. It would
lamentable indeed, and certainly disasdus,
if the task prescribed for Republican
urnalists by the Convention should be not
e discussion of great questions of public
>licy like the tariff or the civil service or
e railroads or the currency, but laborious
ami nations of Mr. James G. Blaine's railad
transactions. We mean, as far as we
e concerned, to avoid this if we can by
king up his railroad transactions now, 'oere
tne bustle and excitement of the cnn.ss
begins.
the first charge.
The first of these charges is that in the
ring session of Congress in 1869 a bill was
fore the House of Representatives which
ught to renew the land grant to the Little
:>ck and Fort Smith Railroad of Arkansas,
which some of Mr. Blaine's friends are
terested; that an attempt to defeat it by
i amendment was made, and was on
e point of being successful, and its prooters
were in despair: that at this juncre,
Mr. Blaine, being then Speaker of the
ouse, sent a message to Gen. Logan to
ake the point of order that the amendent
was not germane to the purpose of the
11; that this point of order was accordingraised
and promptly sustained by Mr.
laine as Speaker, and the bill was in this
anner saved; that Mr. Blaine wrote at once
the promoters calling attention to the s;erce
he had rendered them, and finally,
ter some negotiations, secured from them,
a reward for it, his appointment as sellg
agent of the bonds of the road, on comission,
in Maine, and received a number
such bonds as his percentage; that the
iding features of the transaction appeared
two letters of his afterwards made public,
ited respectively June 29 and October 4,
69.
THE SECOND CHARGE.
Second. That he assorted at first on the
>or of the House, with the view of coverg
up this affair, that the Little Rock and
Fort Smith Road "derived its life, fra
chise and value wholly from the State
and not from Congress, whereas the e^
denee subsequently taken by the Congr<
sional committee disclosed the fact that t
road derived the value on which the
bonds were based from the Act of Congre
of which Mr. Blaine secured the passage
the manner above described in 1869; that
asserted on the floor of the House that t
j bonds he received "were bought by him
precisely the same rate as others paid
! whereas the evidence showed that the bon
came to him as commissions on sales, whi
he secured the opportunity of makii
through his aid given to the work in Co
fress, and that he solicited this agenc
asing his request on the aid so given ai
that he paid nothing whatever for tl
bonds, the consideration being his ruling
Speaker and his subsequent efforts to si
them. What he did with these bonds, se
enty-five in number, is uncertain; b
strong, though not conclusive, evidence w
produced going to show that they we
taken off his hands at a good price by ti
Union Pacific Railroad (through the instr
mentality of one Caldwell,) which then w
also in trouble. The investigation on ti
point was never pushed home, owing to t
sudden illness which overtook Mr. Blai
in 1876.
THE THIRD CHARGE.
Third. That Mr. Blaine in 1870 ma
an offer as appeared by his own letrers,
one of his railroad friends, Mr. Warn
Fisher, of Boston, to sell him a half of or
twenty-fourth interest in the Northe
Pacific Railroad, immediately after Ji
Cooke's contract "had been perfected ai
the additional legislation had been obtai
ed," he having, he said, .come intoconti
of this interest "by a strange revolution
circumstances;" sih&T5ihe amount of sto
which this would represent, he said, wou
be $425,000, and the number of acres of la:
"nearly 275,000." "The chance," he sai
"was a very rare one; he could't touch it
but he offered it to Mr. Fisher for $25,0C
that Mr. Fisher accepted it and paid t
money, but for some unexplained reasi
the stock was never delivered, and 3M
Blaine subsequently returned the amoui
This transaction was a very peculiar or
for the following reasons:
It appears from Acts of Congress relati:
to the road, none of which are of older de
than July 2,1864, that the authorized sto
was $100,000,000, with a land grant es
mated by the commissioners of public lan
at 47,000,000 acres, or 74,423 square mil
The line of the road was 2,000 miles lor
and at the time of Blaine's letter to Fish
it was, he says, being built on bonds
$25,000 a mile, which would have mad<
bonded debt of $50,000,000. Mr. Blaine,
a member of Congress and Speaker of t
House, must be taken to have known abc
the circumstances of the road, and th(
therefore seems no escape from the cone!
sion that his offer was based on the ex pi
tation that he would receive almost as
gift a share in an enterprise dependent:
its value on legislation in which he h
taken part. Mr. Blaine's defence in t
case of this transaction consisted at first
a denial that he had ever had any trans.'
tion with the road at all, but he afterwa
rested on the fact that he had no pecui
ary interest in the transfer, and that
was never actually madej but though tl
might be a defence to a suit against him ]
a conspiracy to defraud purchasers of t
stock, it does not affect in any way t
nature of the offer. His relations wi
Warren Fisher were in 1870, as appear
from the evidence, such that any favor do
the latter, or gift presented to him, had
direct pucuniary value.
THE FOURTH CHARGE.
Fourth. Because he obtained certain li
tors, which there is every reason to belie
contained matter gravely compromise
him, from a perfectly reputable witne
Mr. MnlhVan. who was the Droner and la
ful custodian of them, after having vain
tried appeals to his pity, by pledging 1
word of honor to restore thein broke ti
pledge, retained them by force, and subs
quently read such of them as he pleased
tne House in aid of his vindication; th
this conduct, if not legally criminal, w

TIIE FIFTH CHARGE.
Fifth. That both his short service as i
executive officer of the government and tl
various efforts he has made during the pa
eight years to keep the public in mind
him, have been sensational and theatric!
indicating a strong love of notoriety and t
absence of the settled convictions, the sob
judgment and the steadiness of charact
which are needed to make him a safe occ
pant of any high or responsible administr
tive office; and that the means by whi<
his "booms" are started and promoted?
which the manner in which his "historj
has recently been heralded and produced
a good example?bear too close an approa<
to the advertising devices of a circus <
other public show to make the candida<
of any person resorting to them anythir
but a humiliation for the party producii
him.
A PACKER OF CONVENTIONS.
Lastily, it seems to us emphatically tl
duty of the independent voters to repre
in some signal way the rapidly growir
practice of packing conventions under tl
personal superintendence of candidates f
the Presidency. It is of comparative
recent date. It is only a few years since M
Tilden excited the horror of the Republics
press by taking charge of his own canva
and starting a "literary bureau" to suppi
puffs of himself to the newspapers. Sin<
then it has grown apace, and it now e:
cites no surprise to hear that any Candida
is actively engaged in using all his powe
of intrigue, chicanery and corruption
secure the election of delegates all over tl
Union, pledged either openly or secretly
act under his orders at the Convention, ani
if casting votes for him will do no good,
cast them in such a way as to enable hi:
to carry out any bargain or "deal" wil
any other candidate which it may plea
him to make. The Nominating Convei
tion has already, through its size, as we
as for other reasons, lost nearly all sen
blance of a deliberative body, but it hi
not yet become wholly the product of "su
soiling" carried on by the various candidal
themselves. In this art of packing Co:
ventions Mr. Blaine is now the greate
master in the country. His success wou
make this art almost the only one whi<
American statesmen would hereafter cull
vate or would appearantly need to cultivat
It is high time, therefore, that he and h
disciples were made -to understand that
is not by such little games that the Pres
dency is to be won.?New York Even'u

FISH AND BEES.
Lowuysville,S. C., June 16.?Mr. Rot
Conrad invited a few friends to dine wil
him on last Thursday, and especially to te
his German Carp. The guests represent*
farmers, doctors, and teachers, and the di
ner was skillfully prepared from the pr
ducts of the farm, garden, orchard, floe
herd, apiary and fish pond.
Mr. Conrad's pond?or rather three <
four ponds, one below another?embraces,
suppose, about one-fourth of an acre. E
procured twenty German Carp, perha]
in January, 1882. In June, 1883, they wei
from twelve to fourteen inches long,
large number were hatched last year, bi
very few survived. I don't know the caui
of this; but I have heard of several persoi
experiencing the same result with the fir
year's spawning. Some more young fi<
were put into the pond last winter. I kno
neither the number nor size.
I It would hardly be an exaggeration to sa
that the young carp, of this year'sspawnin,
are numbered by the million. Your reai
ers will be prepared to believe this, whe
they are assured that at one dip with a seiv
Mr. Conrad caught one hundred young fishe
In your issue of May 22nd, a correspoi
dent says: "I consider a pond of small*
I XT n \TA?ir if n
j size uia.ii an aum wuiuucss. nuv* n u
! acre pond will accommodate six hundre
! fish, why will not a half acre accommodai
i three hundred, a quarter, one hundred an
i fifty, ?fcc. ? Of course, Mr. Conrad's pon
eannot sustain such numbers as are in
now, but surely it is worth something,
only to hatch young carp for sale. Othe
i have already engaged a considerable nun
' ber from him, to stock their ponds. Yoi
1 correspondent stated that the eggs hatche
j in eight days. If I remember correctb
1 Mr. Conrad's hatched in a little over t\v
n- days. It may be that circumstances govern |
i," j the time of hatching,
d-! A fish from this small pond was unaniJs
mously pronounced most excellent. No
he muddy taste could be detected, even when i
:se we were testing for mud.
I intended to say something about the !
in apiary, but will not impose on your patience j
he longer, except to say that Mr. Conrad is
he making a reputation for his skill in raanaat
ging bees, and, to those who consult him, I
he does not hesitate to reveal the secret of j
ds his power. Why do we not all have an 1
ch abundance of honey? There is nothing so
ig cheap that is half so good. IIospes.

Blaine's War Kecord.?Here is Hon. 1
^ James G. Blaine's war record as given by
lie E. F. Pillsbury, of Maine, a close neighbor
of Blaine, in a speech in Boston before the
e11 Bay State Club: "He was the first to be
v" drafted in his district. But prior to that an ,
ut organization had been effected in Augusta !
as to protect men Jlgainst the draft, each mem*e
ber paying $25 to the fund to hire a substi"e
tute if drafted. Mr. Blaine, out of that
fund hired a substitute named Bradford.
l*3 A soft place was found for the man to re'1S
main at the post in Augusta, instead of gohe
ing to the front. After a while he was de-1
ne tected in selling for money, certain certifi- j
cates, and he was kept in jail until the close
of the war. That constituted Mr. Blaine's
de service in the field. [Loud laughter.] Afto
ter the war closed, the men who had been
en drawn claimed that the towns and cities
le- should pay the expenses they had been put
rn to, and Augusta generously voted to pay
ny these men the money they had paid for subid
stitutes, and Mr. Blaine got his bond for
n- $200. But this is not the end. Afterwards
ol a resolution was put before the Common
of Council of Augusta to pay Mr. Blaine $200,
ck the amount he had paid for a substitute, and
kl it was voted and passed and he was paid,
ad That you can rely on as being a true story."

I POISON OAK
to Seems to yield every time to treatment with
at Swift's Specific.
Spartanburg, S. C., March 13, 1884.
if Your most valuable medicine (Swift's SpecifDe
ic) has done mo so much good that I feel like
saying this for the benefit of those who suffer
like I did. I was poisoned by poison oak, and
,n saw not a well dav for six years, until I used
j* Swift's Specific, fn the six years I used almost
every kind of medicine, but none had the desired
St effect. After using six bottles of Swift's Speof
cific I am restored to perfect health?with not a
ll, sign of that awful poison left!
in Yours Truly, DAVID NESBITT.
er
U- POISON OAK.
a- I had for thirty-eight years suffered every
3h spring and summer with Poison Oak, which I
Of contracted in bathing when a boy. I tried every
thing for it, including many physicians, but within
out any benefit. I took six bottles of Swift's
V~ Specific (S. S. S.) four years ago, it cured me
sound and well. Three summers have passed,
Of and I have had no return of it.

Remarkable Results.
I have had remarkable success with Swift's
ie Specific; have cured several cases permanently
^ in a very short time. One case which I am now
55 treating was given up to die, and after using
if? three bottles is so far recovered that I think one
ie more bottle will cure her. The most remarkable
t)r ease of all was a lady with medulary cancer of
[y the womb, for whom I had no hope whatever.
V After usingone bottle I am satisfied she will soon
