POLITICAL NOTES.
Cincinnatti Commercial :-"The
silver advocates are not aggressors
-they are on the defensive ; they
are not innovators-they are for the
reptoration of the old money
measure."
Cincinnati Commercial :-"The
Senatorial estimate of the loyalty
and statesmanship of the President
is according to his subserviency to
the Sonato."
The Chicago Times says that
neither the Republican nor the
Democratic party has any longer a
cause to live. The Communists
alone have a principle now."
Congressman Vance, of North
Carolina, chairman of the committee
on patents, claims the credit of
having defeated the extension of
sewing machine patents, and of
thereby conferring a boon on
countless thousands of toiling wo
Mon,
Nashville (Tenn.) Banner :-The
South to-day is more national than
the North, and will continue to be
so for years to come. Not until the
North ceases to be radically section
al will the South again become
dividedly politically. The South is
looking to the future and not to
the past."
Of the independent political move
ment in the South the Memphis
(Tenn.) Appealremarks :-"It is the
most contemptible organization that
ever appeared in the politics of
America. Professing independence,
it is a subservient tool to radicalism,
which the carpet-baggers use as
they do their spittoons."
St. Louis Republican: -"If we
are to keep on pursuing Mexican
Indians into Mexico and the Mexi
cans are to pursuo our Indians into
our country without limitations, wo
will in time cease fighting the In
dians and get to fighting one anoth
or. It is plain that matters on the
Rio Grando are breeding another
war.
St Louis Times:-"England pro.,
duces neither gold nor silver;
America produces both in large
quantities. That the people of the
United States should join foreign
countrios in depreciating silver,
which is one of their principal pro
ductions, would be the extremo of
commercial insanity. They might
as well join England in the declara
tion that wheat shall not be used
for food or cotton for clothing."
The Harrisburg (Pa.) Telegraph
(Republican) says:-"Thero is no
coherence in the elements by which
we were defeated, and what seemed
on the morning after our election
a broken up Republican party is as
united, as resolute and as harmon -
ous i. all parts of the State as over
it was when it walked through
campaigns and was honored with
victory in two~thirds of the counties
of the State."
Of Dan Voorhees the Troy (N. Y.7
imen.s says :---"His record pro
claims him a bitter rebel who lived
at the North wvhere ho wvould not be
under the necessity of jeopardizing
his property or his precious person
in fighting for his convictions, but
who wvent ha'nd and glove with
traitors every hour the rebellion
la:stod. It is to be expected that
the South will send ox-rebels to
Congress, but what can be thought
of the disgrace and insult offered to
the nation wvhen a Northern State
sendis such a man as Voorhecs to
sit in the United States Senate 7"
MABAUREMENT OF CORN TN THE CRIB3.
-"E. B. S." asks for a rule for the
measurement of corn in the crib.
Such rules are never exact, because
different varieties of corn and the
same variety during different seaM
sops will shell more grain than
others. Of some kinds two bushels
of ears will make more than one of
shelled corn, while two bushels of
the large cob kinds will not rpake
one of shelled corn. If we assume
that two bushels of ears will make
one of shelled corn the following
rule will give a correct result :
Multiply the cubic contents of the
crib in feet by four, and strike off
the right hand figure. The remnain.,
der will indicate the number of
bushels of shelled corn. This rule
Imay be explained as follows : A
Umited States standard bushel con
tains 2,450. cubic inches ; a cubic
foot contains 1,728-therefore a
bushel is to a cubic foot as 5 is to 4.
If one bushel of shelled corn is the
p roduct of two of ears, then
illeproportienl is that of,10 to 4, or
mulipy 4an. ivdeby 10 as

"That reminds me of Ben'Hill,"
said Senator Conkling in a reoent
interview ; "he is a genial, open man.
He came to me the other day and
said : 'Senator, I am obliged to
give you notice that I have filed an
application for your seat when you
are cothpelled to leave it. I don't
say that I personally hope it will be
empty ; but in case it is-and that
now looks probable-I have put a
cancat on it.' 'Mr. Bill,' said I,
'there have been five applicants for
my seat, and they are all dead .or
disappointed. I don't know that I
hope you will have as bad luck.'"
A TERHIDI,E INDIAN KILLE.-A
man who has been in the B3laek
Hills and returned is a big gun at
the village drug store, and feels
called upon to tell the truth when
narrating his adventures. Such a
man, named Curt, was telling, the
other night, how many Indians he
had killed during his three months'
residence in the Hills.
After he had talked half an hour,
o.ne of the listeners, who had kept
track of the number killed, exhibit~
od the figures. "I find," ho ex
claimed, "that you killed fifteen
hundred savages in three months."
"Is that all?' exclaimed the nl
abashed Black Hiller. "Why, I be-.
lieve you have left out a week's
work there somewhere." ,"If you
had such good luck killing Indians,
why didn't yon stay there ?" de
mar dod another suspicious listener.
"Well, the truth is, gentlemen, I
was afraid of ruining my left eye.
I'd squinted along my gun-barrel
so much that my face was bela~
drawn out of shape, and the sigh
was so far gone that I had to.bp
led about by a dog." "A.n4 you
killed Indians while in that condi
tion 2" "I did ; though I'% always
felt a little mean ab~ou6 It. I
couldn't see to shoot,and aso rua
'em down and kloycd 'em -to ..deathN
It wasn't manly in me, and 1 wAnt
to ask the forgiveness ofy
tlement right hero anid now.'
