THE best Democrats of New York City are trying to pick up the pieces and to organize all factions linto 1on homogetneous party. Tinumapy.. 'ali Is still recalcitrant, and Irving Hall Is 8ilont. Will -lie result of the .recent movement be one party or threo tile tions? RICHMOND COUNTY, GROnIRA, Is to enjoy a contested clection for sheorlir A few days ago Daitiel beat Pritchard sixty-eight votes In a total of about four thousand. And now Pritchard claims that at least six ' hundred per sons voted in Augusta and tle sur rounding country who were inors or Jad not paid their taxes. From all accounts it would appear Chat thie tax qualifleation clause in Clho Georgia Constitution is a dead letter, as it is claimed that over a thousand illegal votes were - rast indiscrininately for the two candidates. Thle Governor decides the contest. Auigusta has for several yearsallowed scrubraces. This is the result as it is a warning to other places. As matters now go, the best man does not always receive the nomi nation of tbe Demonratic party. IMucl Worse is it wheni the decision is left to all voters irrespective of party, especi ally when (he ignorant tid viciols are in tle majority. Colonel McClure, of tile Philadelphia Times, says it will be a bad day Fur tho South when party lines are broken down and the igno rant colored voter comes inl as the baL alice of power. -e0 is right. The War on Whiskey. The movement against too much whiskev drinking is assuriing strong proportions.

Gary gives the provisois of the stock law to Edge ldcounty In answer to - a note ad dressed to lifin by thirty-seven citizens of the Coullty. le says that the latids18 of this State originally belonged to the 1 State, and were by degrees granted to t the citizens of the State. For Years t there were thousan(s of acres known I as "public lands," which furnished a I common range for the stock of every 1 citizen, Now there are no public land's 8 and the products of the Roil have changed, the small fields have chatiged and commnonis for past.u rages are till- 0 knowni. He continues: F I know of 110 lav that gives the V owier of stock the right to pasture t theit upon tle 1111 of his neighbor, I and he is liable timder an old statuto to an action for dantatges fIor trespass C of stock. Then the stock owner has r no right to complain if his neighbors I claim exclusive right to pastu rage ipon 1 their lands. As there is no law or I equity ini t, claim of the stock owner, . propose next to consider the pro posed chinge in the law from anl econo The fi-st thing to ascertain is: What I is (.he vahte of the stock in this Slate? 1 The seconl is: What is the cost of 0 the fVelncinig of the Statt-e? I By retfreio 1) the statislics of 1871, t of the agricultural departmneit of the ( General Governmienti, the value of our 0 stock is $2,401,282. The cost of our i1 fencing is $21,136,879. These figures 8 disclose tihe istonnidiltg fact that we 1 expend more thai ten dollrs in build- l ing fences to keep out. one dollar's I1 worth of stock. It would seem that a further argun)ent oi this question would be tutmecessarv. But in order a to make the matter ,iill clearer, I will a give the resilts of tlie calculationis of some of our own people. Gen. James Chesiut, in a report to the Sout I Carolina Agricultural Society in .1859, 1 estimies the cost of fencing the im- i proved lands of' Soulh C (aroliint at. four dollars and a (Iarter per acre. MIr. r E. 8. llaommond, of Aiken couity, it estimates the cost at four ildollars per 1 alere. I take it they ae not witle of 1 the maik. Now tlie average diuration i of our Cences is aboit ten years; this t gives mmual ssessment upoti the land C owner oi forly cents per acre for fene- ' ing his arable hnd. 1 Tler are, accordiniig to the census 1 of 1860, a bout -11,000000 acres of im proved lands inl tle State; and at tle rate ofluuir dollars per acre as the a cost of ,ning, we arrive at the enor- It imouis siln of $16,000,000 ias the cost " e elry %en years for lencing out the a stock of the State. ti Th'le abo ligr'es ar'0 laken fiomi ( the census of I86); but if yout will c turn to the census of 1870. Ihere are 0 abou1t 3,000,000 acres of' impirovei d it lands, amid tlie cott. of* fleicing these 1* woiild be $12,000,00.

'[le publio mind is roused oi this subject as It has not lCecl since the great-temperance Inove nent of torty years ago. We believe here will be a general disappointment hat the bill was not universally pro uibitory. Public sentituent Is ripe for his.

There noeer was a more senseless or bsurd utteraee than lhat made bv 'ne of' the opponents of the bill which assed the Legislature, that the bill vould "break up the Deiocratio par y." If this gentleian supposes that .o represents any large or Influential Alowiig in South Carolina he is gregiously mistaken.

Judge Hughes, at Richmond, Va., on Fr'ittay. in the United States Circuit Court, delivered an opinion on the in solvent Piedmont and Arlington Life'( Insurance Conipany of that city, in the matter of appointing a receiver, as prayed for by a number of policy holders. Upoi the question whether or not the court would allow tho comn piny to appoint its owl receiver, Judge Hughes said: "I think that the mere fact of the tiallure of a life insur ance company is prima fiecie proof that its operations have beenconduct-' ed in a fraudulent manner, and if the failure is not explained by some great castialty, such as a widespread pesti lence or suddeii financial convulsion, or physical calamity, I think it is per se proof of fraud. I will not pretend to t say that it creates the presumption of moral turpitude in the managers of a company, but It certainly does of con structfive fraud-that is to say, of that Anancial imbecility or recklcsness, or extravagance, or that gross negligence which is equivalent in its consequence to fiaud, and which a court is bound I to regard as conl.tructive n'aud." The Judge then announced the appoint ment of A. L. Boulware, of Richmond, as receiver of the company. How To TEm-AT A IIotsE.-A horse cannot be screamed at and cursed1 without becoming less valuable in every particular. To reach the highest degree of value the animal should be perf'ectly gentle and always reliable, bnt if itxpeects every momenit that it is in the harness to be "jawed" at and: struck, it will be in a constant state of nervousness, and in its excitement as liable, through fear, to do something! which is not expected, as to go along doing what, you started it to do. It is possible to train a horse to be govern ed by the word of mouth almost as completely as it is to train a child, and and im such training the horse reaches its highest value. When a horse is soothed by the gentle words of his dlriver-and we lave seen him calmed t down fron3 gr' t excitement by no other means-i nay be faiirly eon 'cluded that he . valumable animal for all practical pui' osesq; andl it may be certainly cbnclarlid that the man who has such power over him is a humane man and assensible one. But all this simpIJly means that the man must sc cnre the animal's confidence. Only in excepltional instanices is a horse siub borin or vicious. If he ulnderstanlds his surroundings and what is required of him, he gives no trouble. A INT TO SUJFFIERus FROMr NEu IALmu.-Several evenings since I was attackedl with a severe dental neural gia. After resorting to friction, cold and hot applications, etc., without ob taining any relief, I lay upon my lbed, trusting that sleep miighit come and give me respite. Still the exeruciat iig pain continued, and whiile I was sufl'oring the "tortures of the doubly damned," undecided whether to arouse some tired druggist for a bottle of chloroform or chop my head off, (with a decided preference, however, for (lie chloroform,) I suddenly be thought me of what I had read of an anuesthetic wvhich we always carry with us. Thereupon I began to inflat~e my lunmgs to their utmost capacity, and then foircibly blow out all the air that I could. Immediately the pain began to lessen, and after a few reple titions of the process, it had entirely ceased, being displaced by a (delight fuil tickling sensation in (lie gums, and furthermore I kiiow not, for in less time than it takes to tell it, I was sound asleep, awakenin2 nlext morn ing delightfully refreshed and without a symptom of my ailment left. Hence, you see I was not simply temlporar'ily relieved, but entirely well again. 'I wish other sufferers would try this and rep~ort, results. A IHUMAN HIOLOCAUsT.-A fire was discovered in (lie main building on the Strafford, N. HI., County F"arm about 4.30 o'clock on Friday morning. A t the time of the discovery the flames had made considerable headway and Imany rooms were filled with smoke. One hundred andi sixty-nine per~soins were in the building at the time -and great difflculty was experienced in get ting them out, some1 of' them having to be dragg~ed to a lace of safety.
