THIS ?0UT1IEUN DEUT. Details at tlio Louilon Scheme tor Fuiul 1 !>;; tlio Old UoildS. Tho council of foreign bondholders of iho Jjondon (stock exchange have for Bomo yonra boen struggling with the difficulties presented by the default in tho payment of the interest on tho debts of tho southern states of America, and their aotion culminated lost spring | in resolutions donouncing Virginia for not complying with tho terms of hor own fuuding bill of 1870, This at tracted tho attention of capitalists iargoly interested in southern soouri tios, and thoy ooneulted with a lawyer formerly a resident c f Chicago and now of London, whom tho Times onlls ** the loading authority on American railway soouritieB." This gentleman for twonty llvo years Iwb been omployed by Eng lish bondholders to enforce their rights ugaiust railways, cities and counties of Iowa, 111 IIIUll) and Wisconsin. Ho huu been tho pioneer iu nil that litigation ?whereby tho snpremo court of tho United States had been got to deoido that muuioipnl and other bonds, whon issued by politioal "corporations, are binding lipon tho whole property of tho oitizons and oan bo eollootod through tho courts. Tho supromo court of Iowa had originally held tho samo way, but tho pooplo mado a new constitution aud elected a now supremo court, which reversed tho fornior decisions ; and the aid of tho supremo court of the United States was thereforo necessary to protect the rights of tho bondholders. In some of this litigation, whoro tho courts would order tho mayor and city [council to levy a tax and pay a dobt and tho.r.o au thorities would rcfuso to do so, booauso they woro restrained by injunction from tho state court, tho fedornl court would put tho wholo city govornmor.t in jail until thoy did levy tho necessary tax. In some cases the court would direot its marshal to lovy and collect such tax as was necessary to pay tho debt. This lino of decisions governs tho polioy to bo pursued by tho foreign bondholders; ami thoy further decide that whon bonds nro issued, aud tho law which authorizes tho issuo also provides a tax to pay tho interest on them and a sink ing fund to pay tho prinoipal whon duo ?then such law iB a contract between tho Btnto and tho bondholder, and can not bo repealed or modified, but that tho tax thus provided mu?t bo collected," aud tho proceeds applied to tho use to which it is pledged. Upon tho priuoiplo of these decisions, which was appliedjto tho southern debts, it has been arranged to float all tho debts of all theso states on the terms pro posed. For this purpose the American bond-funding and banking association has bcon organized with suflioiont cap ital to accomplish its objects. Its cap italists are among tho strongest firms in Europe intorested and dealing in Amer can securities?tho Rothohilds, Gil liatts and Barings, of London, besides somo of tho most influential firms of Germany. Thoy have had tho law above referred .to prepared, and thoy propose to a stato that, if she will agree to its provisions and Bnrronder to them tho entire control of its dobt, thon this association binds itself to recoivo theso now bonds and to rotnrn to tho stato old bonds in exohango as soon as thoy cau get possession of them. Tho pro posed now bond is to bo mado payable in London in gold coin bo as to meot tho legal-tender divisions of tho su premo court, aud tho rnto of interest will vary in each stato, according to her ability to pay. Tho syndicate controll ing this association in London hold largo quantities of southern securities. With their iufluenco in financial oirolos tliev expect to plnco theso new gold bonds on the market on tho most nd vtuingcons ternis. Thoy will bo per fectly secured, tho interest will always bo promptly paid in Loudon, and thoy expect to sell them at a much higher rate than tho present dishonored bonds can ho mado to bring. A gold bond payable iu London is considered worth onc-llfth moro than n gold bond payablo in Now York, and, as a proof of this, thoy refer to.tho fact that before tho war tho stato bonds payablo in London bearing live per cent., brought ai much as bonds iu tho samo utate "payablo in Now York at aix per cent., and then both bonds woro p.iynblo in gold. Tho originators of this sohomo, in which so much legal ability is involvod and which so great financial influnoo is supporting, propose to handle tho fol lowing debts : Alabama.$ 8,47? oih ArU.wa.

Bo will tho new governor of South Carolina. The governor of Mi? oi?oippi, Gen. Ames, will urge tho fund ing cf tho old repudiated bonds issued by tho planter's bank, (?eorgin, being oasily ablo to pay what sbo owes herself, declines to mnko any terms at all. Gov. Kemper, of this fstato, after roiuo dolny, ngroed to reeommend to tho legislature ' thon about to assemble hero tho fund ing of tho debt of Virginia into four por cent, sterling bonds, un der the plan of tho association. Ho nrgod it on tho legislature with great oarnostness, and Mr. It. M. T. Hunter, tho ireaauror, also prcBSOS it for adop tion. Kemper and Hunter comdbiue can oarry this financial moasnro through tho general arsombly, and they are sanguino of suocos3 with it in con verting the wholo debt into four por oont. sterling bonds. Mr. MoOullooh, Into of Jay Gooko, MoOulloch !c Co., of London, was horo at the bondholders' oonferenco. Ho examined tho plan for fuuding thoso debts and was ontiroly satisfied with its feasibility. Ho will probably oo-opo rato in London and booomo ono of tho parties managing tho enterprise. Thoro has ben a groat myHtory kept up about all this matter, and it has been difficult to get at the facts; but tho obovo state ment will bo found to bo correct, though probably it will astound somo persons here to aco it in print.?Rich mond Cor. N. Y. Herald. Cattlo Breeding. Ho turned his back upon fino-spun theories and their discussion, confining his remarks ontiroly to his own practi cal observations. The leading princi ple of his argument was tho law of nn tare, like produces liko, and that, to se cure hoalthy, robuBt, vigorous, active and ** growthy" calves, it was necessary to keep their progenitors in the same condition up to tho time of breeding. All our improved varieties of vegetables, n,o improved breeds of domestic ani m ds all over the country, oven tho An l .o-Saxon as seen to-day? all were tho result of caref nl culture, and just as tho vogetablo required constant cultivation from tho germ to maturity, so tho short horn or any other domestic animal must be cultivated from its birth to the time at which it becomes a producer. In order to nttain this condition the animal should have suoh nn amonnt of nutritious food as nature required, should spend at least half of its life in tho open air' with the privilogo of ex orcising as much as it wished tip to tho t imo of maturity. After that n change of food should be made in order to pre vent tho production of too much flesh or fat. This ho thought desirable, rather than a reduotion in the amount, in order to keep the animal at n cer tain point. The food should bo moro nutritious in wiutor than in summer, and more nutritious for the nursing than tho dry cow. After the birth of tho first calf, which should occur when the heifer is thirty months old, sho should be coupled with the male again in from sixty to ninety days, and not sooner, so that sho may produce the second calf just a year after the first, and so on through her entiro breeding period. Nino months in twelve was as long as any cow should 'give milk. In case the animal became too fat, exercise and not starvation should bo used to re duce her. Starvation and lack of ex eroiso impaired tho constitution und shortened, life; labor, with sufficient food inorcascd muscle, hardened bone, and invigorated tho system. Malo animals designed for breeders should bo kopt as much as possible in an opeu lot, and not in tho stable or box stall, should bo kopt in only in very bad weather, and thou only during the prevalence of a storm. Excrciso in tho open air was conduoivo of strength, while lying on tho ground had a ten dency to keep the system cool, which was necessary when an animal was liv ing on stimulating food. Tho malo animal should always bo improving rather than declining, and render but ono good sorvico, and uover moro than twe, in ono day. Tho introduction of short-horns into this country has been of almost mous ureless servioo in tho improvement of beef as an artiolo of hnmau food. To make two blados of grass grow where ono grow boforo was a grand achieve ment, but to make grow live pounds of bcof Vhoro three grew before, to im prove its quality and produco it in less time, was a much grander achievement, because it entered into tho healthful food of mau so immediately. While the work of tho short-horn breodor was too great at present to bo ootimatod, it was plain that it materially affected the iutorests of tho next generation. It was thoroforo highly important that tho host moans of improving tho herd should bo tho object of tho breed er. In other words, calves woro of moro value than premiums, and should bo tho objcot desired by every breedor if it necessitated tho withdrawal of ovory short-horn from tho show-iing. Tho desiro for a premium caused breed ers to ovordo tho mattor of feeding for tho sake of appearance in tho show ring, to tho detriment of tho animal for brooding purposes. There was much moro lost by tho present mode of prep aration for tho show-riug than all tho premiums amounted to. In conclusion, the speaker cited ?ome twenty of tho most colebrated families in the world which had nover made any appearance in tho Bhow-ring, having never been prepared for moro premium purposes. They were kept in a condition which would notstriko judges of oittlo-shows, but would transmit their highest and beat' qualities to their progeny. If premiums oonld not bo awarded upon tho basis of tho host breeding condition, they woro calculated to do ? moro ham than good to tho stock.?J)unv.o,n. Tlio SIoyo vs. Ilio FIro Place. Substantial chimneys .to two-?tory houses will require each about flvo lllOSBgs.fi bricks, and cast, when com pleted, sixty dollars eaoh ; whether in sido or outBido, it is a mere accident if thoy answer tho purpoBO for which thoy are built, for who is thorb that has not scorched his shin in front of o roasting lire, whilo his back was freezing, in very cold weathor? Ordinary planta tion flre-plaocB will ooasame woekly a oord of wood, and withal leavo tho room as cold as if t hero lm l boon no fire kindled. Hourly during bold days, the lire has to bo replenished and the hottest part of the chimney is its top, for 9 lOths of tho heat escapes up tho fluo. Tho ehuuoks may bo drawn to gether, aud fresh wood thrown on, but all to little purpono half tho time, for we Bontherners nro proverbially oxpert in leaving doora opon bohind us in cold weather. Possibly, ohoorful lires may havo partially heated the sittiug-room, for instanco; a member of tho family wishes to retire, ?? only for a minnto;" tho minute is prolonged to an hour; the door Btands ajar all the while, until tho draft of fresh air chills tho room and inmates, whon on must go a few more, logs to rcsnpply tho lost heat. This policy, so universally practiced at tho south, costs monoy, I oaro not. if the wood is burned to get rid of it. The tree must bo foiled, tho branches lopped off, the wood hauled, then cut again to suit, tho fire place, and tho fire built; every one of which acts has to be dono by hired help. True, farmers say, tho land had to bo cleared, and tho farm hands out and hauled tho wood, and others build tho fires whon thoy having nothing else to do, etc. Against jnst suoh fallacious ideas I am contending. Clearing land may at a future timo bo composed as ques tionable economy, and snroly hands that aro hired by tho year should never be so idle as to havo timo to do work to cost nothing. But I am aBked, what substitute havo you for tho chimney ? I answer unhesi tatingly tho stove. As the cooking stove has supplanted the Dutch oven, bo should the heating stove Baporscdo tho fire-place in most of our rooms. To-day is cold and icy, tho wind blows briskly from tho northeast. Three hours ago I entered the room in whioh I am writing.nnd for the first time this fall, kindled a nre in a Btovo that an able-bodied man might carry under his arm, using three small sticks of oak wood twelvo inches long and two smaller pieces of dry pine. In fifteen minuteu I had to move off from tho stove, and to this timo the remotest corner of tho room is perfectly comfort able. Yesterday morning, at daylight (2d November, white frost), with a few splinters and a gnarled stick of pine, probably 20 inches long and ? inches square. I kindled a fire in a stove ; at 9 a. m. three or four small oak sticks were added ; at 12 m. as many more, and again at 3 r. m,; at9 v.m. this room, sixteen by twenty feet, with a coiling twelvo feot high, was wtrm and comfortable, and had been so through out tho day. Had either of those ex periments been tried in a room with a flro-placo, I would havo written with cold fingers, and eaten my meals with discomfort Tho ob ject ion to a stovo is trito, that it dries as well as heats the air of a room, and produces headache. There is Bcionco in using a stovo ns there is in tho use of nllj implements, and it may bo to rosupply tho very moisture it de stroys. A tea-kcttlo, sauce-pan, boiler, or any open vessel filled with water and placed upon tho stovo will f nruish by evaporation tho nocessary moisturo as rapidly as nocded.?Excltange, Nicht and moonlight. Many men walk by day ; few walk by night. It is a very different season. Take a July night for instance. About 10 o'clock?when man is uslcop and day fairly forgotten?the beauty of moon light is soen over lonely postures whero cattlo aro silently feeding. On all sides novelties present themselves^ Iustoad of the sun there nro tho moon and stai s instead of tho wood-thrush there is the whip-poor-will,?instead of tho butter flies in tho meadows, flrc-flies, winged parks- of fire! who would havo be liovod it ? What kind of cool, dolibor ato lifo dwells in those dewy abodes as sociated with a spark of firo ? So man hasfiro in his eyes, or blood, or brain. Inatend of singing-birds, the hnlf throttled notes of a cuckoo flying over, tho croaking of frogs, and tho intonser droam of crickots. But above all, tho wonderful trump of tho bull-frog, ring ing'from Maine to Georgio. The po tato vines stand upright, tho corn grows npneo, tho bushes loom, the grain Ileitis aro boundless. On our opon river ter laces, once cultivated by tho Indian, thoy appear to occupy the grouud liko an army,?their beads nodding in tho breeze. Small trees and shrubs are seen in tho midst, overwhelmed as if by an inundation. The shadows of rooks and trees, and shrubs and hills nro more conspicuous than the objects thorn solves. Tho slightest irregularities in tho ground aro revealed by tho shadows, and what tho foet find comparatively smooth npparfl rough aud diversified in oonseqnonoo. For tho samo roason tho whole landscape is moro variogated and piouresque than by day, Tho smallest rcooBBCH iu the* rooks nro dim and cav ernous ; tko fornsin tlio woods appoar of tropical size. Tho swcot fern and in digo in ovorgrccn wood-path* wot yon1 with dew tip to your middle. The! leaves of tho shrub-oak are shining ?b if a liquid wero flowing over them. Tho pools seen through the trees are as full of light as the sky. " The light of tho day takes rofngo in their bosoms," as tho Purana ' says of tho ocean. All white objects aro remarkable than by day. A distant cliff looks like a phos phorescent space on a hill-side. The woods aro heavy and dark. Naturo slumbers. You soo tho moonlight re {looted from particular, stumps in the [ recesses of tbo forest, as if she seleotod what to shino on. .

No Uncertain Bound.?Whon a man discovers n great trnth, it is his duty tc proclaim it to his fellow-man. Tho uso of Dr. Walker's Vinegar \'it torn cannot be too strongly recommended to tho in valid public. To thoso who have tried it, nothing need bo said?their experi ence is their proof, puro and positive as Holy Writ. . To those who have not tried it, theso truths cannot be too often repeated. It is a certain vegetable spooiflo, whioh aids faltering natnre against the triumphs of dyspopsia, bil ious disorders of overy kind, malarious fjvers, constipation of tho bowels, livir complaint, spring nnd fall debility, etc It costs but little, and can always bo at hand.

It will not stimulate you to day to leave you weaker to-morrow. Its benefits nro permanent. For All Female Complaints nothing equala Dr. Pierco's Favorite Prescrip tion. It is a.moat powerful rcstorativo tonic, alao combining tho most powerful nervi no properties, especially adapting it to tho wants of dobilitatcd ladios suffering from weak back, inward fever, congestion, inflammation, or ulccralion, or from nervousness, or noural gic pains. Mr. Q. W. Soymonr, druggist, of Canton. N. Y., writes Dr. Piorco as follows: " The demand for your Favorito Prescription is wonderful, and ono man stated to mo that his wifo had not dono a day's work in five months, whon sko commenced taking your Favorito Prescription, took two bottles and is now on tho third bottlo, and is able to do her houeo-work alono and milk fourteen cows twico a day." Dr. Piorco's Favorito Proscrip tion is sold by all dealers in medicines.

It is adapted to al most all tho purposes of a Family Medicine ; and as a specific for coughs, colds, whooping cough, soreness of the cucet, lame stomach, rheumatism, spitting of blood, and all lung diflicnlties, it has no equal that wo over saw or heard of.
