? ? ? - ? " ? " ? We invite the attention of Grangers to the resolutions of Clio Grange, published in our Grange Column of lest week, on the subject of excluding bagging and ties on the purchase of bales of cotton from the producer. A brief explanation of . which, is that the speculator proposes to buy the farmer's cotton and take bis bag? ging and ties with the bargain, but with? out allowing any compensation for the latter. Not content with fraudulently depressing the natural price of cotton by "bulja," "bears," "syndicates;* ''corners'1 and "futures," these speculating charac? ters now come boldly to the front and re .- quire the farmer to relinquish at the gin house the whole value of bagging and ties, without which his cotton cannot be put on tbe'market^atall. Presumingthe farmers to be so inseparably wedded to this process of baling their cotton for sale . and: shipment, that they have ..not the . " energy to adopt any other plan of real? izing the productions of their labors, and that they* will submit to the thave as they have on former occasions, with little - more than a suppressed giowl, with per-' haps a few "cuss words." When it comes to this kind of reckless - "bearing" and. tyranny by one of two parties mu? tually dependant upon each other for business and support, it is high' time' the weaker party should rise up and shake off ?he\ fetters that binds her in such an ! unholy alliance, and provide for her own - preservation. Words of moral suasion are empty sounds, and protests may be uiet with sneers and. insolence by the usurping party. The Granger and the farmer (unfortu? nately not always identical) are equally and vitally interested in the defence against thi? new mode of filching their hard earnings. And we cannot forbear \ the opportunity of inviting all nnorgau ?*" ized farmers to come forward and make. - , common cause with us in this as in all other matters pertaining to our mutual interests. But the Grange, being already organized, though not bo closely united,, "we regret to say, as their interests de ' mand, is expected to act promptly but wisely. Then what remedy shall we 1st. It would be well to have a full and free expression, of opinion from, all Grahgers'updn this subject. An over? whelming expression of rebuke may cause the aggressor to withhold, his vio? lence. 2nd. Might not the National Grange ?" -effect some arrangement for co-operative, trade with foreign nations, whereby a di rect'trade might be established between the producer and the consumer. 3rd. Bring the cotton mills to the cot \ ton fields: All farmers should heartily' unite to establish, on eveiy ten miles square, -cotton mills with the" Clement at? tachment, and spin their lint from the seK*S?$0.*hread and sell directly, to the ' ? weaver. This change in the form of offering his fabric for sale would enure to 'the benefit of the farmer in various ways. It will enable him to put up a larger valueJn a smaller bale, and brake up the traffic" vx bales of lint It will lessef the expense of bagging and ties, freight, com? missions, patching, raking, sampling and . other subterfuges for takiug without leave, and the cotton business could be managed with fewer middlemen assist? ants. It would give . employment to a large number of operatives at home, re? taining the cost of spinning the lint in our own country, and remove the "bone of contention," the bagging and ties. All this may be effected without the least risk of depreciating the producer's profits, but with tiie most liberal anticipations of ' enlarging his productive "interest, cher? ishing his independence, and securing peace and quiet at home. < A Noble Revenge. The coffin was a plain one?? poor, miserable pine coffin. No flowers on its top, no lining of rose white satin for the pale brow; no smooth ribbons about the coarse shroud. The brown hair was laid decently back, bnt there was no crimped cap, with its neat tie beneath the chin. The sufferer from cruel poverty smiled in her sleep. *T want to see my mother," sobbed a j poor child as the city undertaker screwed 4 down the top. "Toil can t?get out of the way, boy I Why don't somebody take the brat ?" "Only let me see her one minute," cried the hapless, homeless orphan, clutching the side of the charity box, and as he gazed into that rough face, anguish tears streamed rapidly down toe eheek -on which no childish bloom ever lingered. ?\ Oh, it was pitiful to hear him cry, "Only once let me see my mother, only once 1" ; Quick and brutally the hard-hearted monster struck the boy away, so that bo reeled with the blow*. For a moment the boy stood panting with grief and rage; his blue eyes distended, his lips sprang apart, a fire glittering through his tears, as he raised his puny arm, and with a most nncbildish accent, screamed: 'When I'm a man I'll kill yon for There was a coffin and head of earth between the- mother and the poor, for? saken child, and a monument stronger than granite built in the boy's heart to the memory of the heartless deed. The court house was crowded to suffo? cation. "Does any one appear as this man's counsel ?" asked the Judge. There was a silence when he finished, until with lips tightly pressed together* a look of strange intelligence,- blenchd vvith haughty reserve upon his handsome fea? tures, a young man stepped forward with a firm tread and kindling eye. to plead for the erring and the friendless. He was a stranger, but from his first sentence t there was silence. The splendor of his genius entranced and convinced. The man who could not find a friend was acquitted. * "May God bless you, sir, I cannot." "I want ho thanks," replied the stran? ger, with icy coldness. "I?I believe" yon are unknown to me." "Man-! I will refresh your memory. Twenty years ago yon struck a broken? hearted boy away from bis mothers poor coffin. I was that poor, miserable boy." : The man turned livid. "Have, yon rescued me, then, to take my life?" "No, I have a sweeter revenge ? I have saved the life of a man whose brutal deed has rankled in my breast for twenty years. Go I and remember the tears of a friendless child." The man bowed; his head in shame, and went out fron* the presence of a magnanimity as grand as incomprehensi? ble, and the noble young lawyer felt God's smile in his sonf. ? Gdv. Vance, of North Carolina, at? tributes the destruction of the pure agri? cultural fair system to horse racing, three card monte, and prise candy. - ?? ? the MY8TERY of the RtJBY.?It is not a little remarkable, and we might philosophize for some time abcut it, that while the diamond is made up of pure carbon, or simply blank opaque charcoal, the1 ruby, the next in value and beauty, is nearly made up of alumina or common clay?98.5 per cent.?the coloring matter iron, making up the rest of it; the mere trace of lime found in if being unappre eiable. Nothing, we may venture to say, in nature's chemistry is more wonderful than this fact of the dull, colorless, and lifeless clay becoming metamorphosed by some bidden aud almost miraculous way into the transparently clear, red-colored, and almost living gem. Imagination itself fails to find a theory to account for all this, and no progress in chemistry can invent a theory to account for all this, and no progress in chemistry cau invent a theory to fit it. It is a somewhat curious coincidence that the ruby, as well as the diamond and other precious stones, is so often found associated with gold; where they are, there is gold almost sure tobe present. Nature produces these, her riches, together;"and it afterward is the province of art to keep them together and to exhibit them as one object. The New York Baby Show.?Up to 'last Saturday there-had been three huo dred and-fifty entries for the New York baby show. ? The exhibition is to take place in Midget Hall, corocr of Four? teenth street and Fifth avenue, and the premiums to be ? given approximate $1,000. On the first floor sn elevated platform has been built, encircling the room. This is covered with a handsome carpet of a cheerful pattern, and fur? nished with rocking chaire, easy chairs, bigh. chairs,/low chain*, and stools and chairs of all styles and descriptions suit? able for babies and their attendants. Babies are to exhibited in cradles, car? riages, in their mothers' or nurses' arms, or.Mn any manner that the mother chooses. The upper storv is to be de? voted to the wardrobes, dressing rooms and dining room. In this department mothers and nurses are to be feted?on two meals a day. ? Amongst 'the entries are babies from New York, Brooklyn, Williamsburg, Greenpoint, Hunter's Point, Jersey City,vHoboken, Staten Is? land, Boston. Philadelphia, Scranton, Baltimore, Washington, and some from the most distant parts of the United States. Sharpening a Razor.?The simplest method for sharpening a razor is to put it for half an hour in water, to which has been one-twentieth of its weight of mu? riate or sulphuric acid; then lightly wipe it off, and after a few hours set it on a bone. The acid here supplies the place of whetstone by corroding the whole surface uniformly, so that, nothing further than a smooth polish is neces? sary. * ? A Chicago inventor made a fan ,wbeel, to be placed in the hat, to keep the head cool in warm weather. "He set it going in his own hat. and the first thing he knew.his hair was being wound ?'up in the machinery^ The spring was .very -stiff, and before he could release himself a large, part of his hair was pulled out by the roots." . The Duke of Norfolk, who was late? ly married to Lady Flora Hastings, gave his bride a pearl necklace once owned 'and worn by Queen Mary, of Scotland. The bridegroom is Premier Duke aud hereditary Earl-Marshal of England, and by virtue of the' latter rank attends all Seat court ceremonials with his Earl arshal's baton. He is not only .the head of the English peerage, but' the 'recognized leader of the English Roman I Catholic laity. The. new Duchess is a convert to that faith. ? It is well known that the far famed canvas hack-duck of the Chesapeake de? rives its delicate and peculiar savor from the valiseneria, or wild celery, on which it feeds in those waters. An intelligent 'agriculturist has turned this knowledge to useful account by cooping and feeding the common domestic duck upon the tops and roots of the garden celery for a week or two before killing them, which is said to greatly improve their flavor and alto 1 gether destroy the rankness which is gen? erally observable in the barnyard fowl. ? Prince Bismarck likes to find-every thing in his study in disorder and gen? eral topsy-turviness, just as he left it? bottles, mugs, cigars and cigar-boxes, odd gloves, books, pamphlets, papers, letters, spurs, stray antiques, swords, hand mir? rors, piston,'fiddle strings, flutes?these are all articles he wants to put his hand on at short- notice, and see lying around loose on the tables, floor and sofas. Whenever he discovers any signs that his wife or the servants have been trying to set things to rights a terrible row is raised. TEE MOST EMINENT LIVING AU? THORS, such as Rt. Eon. W. E.
