stop talk ing and having refused constable whitley was told to carry him to jail his left hand was put in the hand-cuff and he was ordered to put the other one iu which he peremptorily refused to do

who up on failure in his purpose cut her throat from ear to ear the cut wns not so deep as expect ed and the lady recovered the perpetrator was promptly handed over to the law but the law power was so favorable to this specie9 of crime that he escaped under the sentence of a short confinement in the state penitentiary fearing that the crime would be further en couraged by the law power the citizens

priucipal griudstnoe quarries in tbe coun try are on tbe western reserve west of cleaveland soon after the passage of thc tariff act laying the present duty on grindstonee the writer met one of tl.e priucipal men interested iu these quarries and the following colloquy ensued : grindstone man — 1 have beeu in wash ington six months aud procured a tariff of s2 a ton on grindsloues i am a free trader in everything but grindstones but we cannot compete with nova scotia grindstones on the atlantic sea-board without a tariff writer — if tbe question is not a fair oue don't aiibwer it but how much did you pay ? a short time after meeting the same gentleman the writer put thc following question : when i last met you i asked you how much you paid for your tariff on grindstone you did not answer i will put another question : do congress men take money for their votes ?*' grindstone mau — they will all stick their hand out behind them illustrating the way they do it by thrusting bis own hand behind cupped to its utmost recep tive capacity this may not be plenary proof that this tariff act was procured by bribery but that intelligent legislators would pass an act compelling the industries of the at lantic states to pa a bonus of s2 a ton on grindstones to an insignificant number of quarry-men on the western reserve with no other motive thau the public weal is preposterous the above is literally true if you desire you can publish it though i should not wish my name counected with it still if called upon i can fuinishj names io prove that the act referred to was a most corrupt job rmekvi success in life perhaps tbe first and great requisite to perfect success in life is to be fully per suaded in your mind what is the object you wish to obtain many make their first false step by a wavering uncertain beginning not quite sure what their aim is they waste precious time and ac quire habits that will unfit them for any patient continuous or energetic labor success must depend in a great de gree upon tbo determination to concen trate one's self npon some one object the object of one's ambition then fully and unchangeably decided the plain path of hard working perseverance punctuality and honesty should be pur sued there is no royal road to success for though as david copperfield has told us some happy talent and some fortunate opportunity may form the two sides of the ladder on which we amount the rods of the ladder must be made of stuff to stand wear and tear for the first round there is perhaps no better substitute than perseverance — perseverance that will lead one to work to go over and over the same dull routine of what is often merely mechanical and uninteresting labor it is doubly needed at the commencement of business for here concentrate all the great obstacles that impede the way so that it often seems tbat tbe first third is the only really diffi cult portion of the road to success punctuality though seemingly ranking among the lesser virtues its absence will occasion as great evils as many a graver fault and it canuot be dispensed with in any of tbe departments of life the pro fessional man is ruined without it and in a business man its absence cannot be tolerated iione?ty is if from selfish motives only the best policy honesty that will lift a man not only above a dishonest act but a mean act or unworthy motive ; honesty ihat will extend into all his dealings that will allow no shuilling or shrinking of duty no appearance of wealth not actually possessed no extravagance of living for himself or family that may not strictly and knowingly be allowed with out detriment to himself or his business or without injury to others agricultural from tlie southern planter and farmer 1 corn-shucking why i-i it that farmers will contin ue to pay the negro ten cents per barrel to shuck their corn when there is little or no expense attending that operation ? let the corn be slip-shucked as it is gathered and thrown into the crib this can be done with safety three weeks earlier than when it is shucked the rats do not injure it anything like so much and there is not that vile scent upon it caused hy them it is the best plan upon earth to keep weavil from it and in fact there are many reasons why it should be housed when you wish to prepare the crop for market or the mill pass it through the corn shelter and through your wheat fan with * c chaffer only in it and there you have your corn shelled shucked and cured and your shucks hackled and ready for your stock than whicli nothing is better for them always provided you have them slightly impregnated with water into wliich you have cast a modicum of salt what pleasure to see them eat it all the time remem bering that you have in your pocket 10 save upon every 100 barrels of corn you may have made which would have gone into thc pocket of some low vender of lightning who have gone into the pocket of every negro to whom the farmer pays money comparative

3 miles from concord who cm beat thia report of 20 y«ar struggling omtori stim tobacco culture in north carolina tbe new york daily bulletin of the 15th ult remarks that the successful rais ing of fine quality of tobacco in the west ern portion of north carolina is the latest agricultural achievement in the state such an attainment was until within a few years past little thought of and indeed would have been ridiculed if mentioned ten years ago but with the constant developments of the capabilities of the soil in this as well as other southern states impossibilities of the past are being proved possibilities of the present the fact that thousands of fan cy wrappers are now produced in north carolina where ten years ago the crop was scarcely known is certainly demon strative of these facts a new method of curing is introduced wliich will add ma terially to the success of the tobacco interest in north carolina this is in curing the leaf off the stalk the advan tage obtained this wise is bhown in the following yield of 230 pounds of greeu tobacco one half of which was cured on and the other half off the stalk : that cured off the stalk 12 pounds 15 ounces stalks weighed g pounds 1 ounces ; to tal 19 pounds 5 ounces cured on stalk 11 pouuds 11 ounces ; stalk on this top 8 pounds ; total 19 pouuds 11 ounces it will be observed that the grand total is just the same except six ounces and in this lot cured off the stalk 15 ounces or something like 8 per cent on the leaf is gaiued while the other gains one pound bat that gain is in worthless stalk mortgage on crops from the n y journal of commerce tbe-following questions will interest many persons especially throughout tbe south where thi topic has been much discussed : coxcoiid n c dec 24 1875 editor ofthe journal of commerce — an answer in your replies and decis ions will be fully appreciated a farmer plants his crop then gives a mortgage to a merchant on his growing crop of cotton c.f for supplies furnished the mort gage claims the matured cotton as his by reason of mortgage on growing crop — can the merchant take said cotton from an innocent purchaser i will you give case and decision in united stales su preme court from louisiana or missis sippi concerning mortgage on growiug crops ] was it not decided it did not bind the matured crop it will be much to our advantage to have your valued opinion published yours truly p & c j reply — tbe case stated appears to be completely covered by the decisiou of the united states supreme court in the case ol butt vs eliett 19 wall 324 being an appeal f.om the u s district court for the district of louisiana one sillers sold bis plantation to graham and graham executed in returu a mortgage dated 1867 on the crops to be grown that year eliett succeeded to the rights of sillers as judgmeut creditor but graham notwithstanding the mortgage sold the crops to butt & co to repay advance — eilett accordingly filed against butt & co and the disti ict court gave him a decree for ttie value of the crops the supreme court affirmed tbe decree mr justice swayue delivering the opinion and saying the mortgage clause * * * could not operate as a mortgage be cause the crops to which it relates were not then in existence when the crops grew the lien attached and bound them affeclually from that time hill's answer to blaine a stinging rebuke for de vi ving the wail feeling jef davis not the monster the ex speak er painted him — how the federals were responsible for the horrors of ander sonville — an eloquent plea for the union washington jan 11 the house then proceeded to consider the amnesty bill hill spoke two hours in most effective style and was frequently applauded by the house and galleries in opening he disclaimed all desire on the part of himself and his associates from the south to re open ill feeling between tbe sections the country had already suffered enough from feuds he aud his associates had come here with the patriotic idea to remember nothing but the country and the whole couutry aud turning their backs upon all tbe horrors of the past to look witb all earnestness to find glories for the future the gentleman blaine who was the ac knowledged leader ofthe republican par ty in the house and was tbe aspiring leader of tbe republican party of the country bad however willed otherwise and seemed determiued that the wounds whicli are healing should be reopened and that the pas.-ions which were hushed should be reinflamed he hill wished the house to understand ihat be and his associates did not reciporate either the purpose or the manifest desire of the gen tleman aud while they felt it their im parative duty to vindicate the truth of history as regards their section they did not intend to say anything calculated to aid the gentleman in that work of crimi nation and recrimination and of keeping up the war by politicians after brave men bave said that the war shall end the gentleman from maine had made two points in his speech the magnanimity and grace of the republican party and the brutality of tho«e whom he pleased to term rebel ae to the 6r«t question he did not propose to weary the honse to-s day because with the history of the last fifteen years yet fresh in the mind of the woild it was useless to speak of the grace and magnanimity ofthe republican party with the master enslaved with intelli gence disfranchised with soc-ety disor dered with states subverted with lesris latures dispersed people could not afford to talk of grace and magnanimity if that were grace aud magnanimity be prayed god to save the country in future from such virtues the gentleman from maine had made the grave indictment against mr davis that he was guilty of tbe murders and crimes at andersonville and the gentle man stood before the conntry with his very fame in peril if after making snch a charge he failed to prove it he hill would take up the gentleman's proposi tions in their order he hoped that no one would imagine that he was here to pass any eulogy on jefferson davis the records on which his fame must rest had been made up and his companions and friends had remitted that record to the only tribunal that would give an impar tial judgement — honest prosperity in the meantime no eulogy of thisjcould help it no censure from the gentleman blaine could damage it and no act or resolution of the house could affect it the charge against mr davis was that he was a deliberate wilful scheming murderer of thousands of his fellow-citi zens knowing the high character and reputation of the gentleman from maine be hill had supposed when he heard the charge fall from his lips that bo had citrtaiuly made a recent discovery and he listened for the evidence but what was it nothing but the partial report ofa con gressional committee the testimony read was exclusively ex parte testimony taken while tiie gentleman now on trial before the country was in prison without a hearing aud without the opportunity of a hearing if there was any principle held sacred in the anglo'saxon mind it was that an englishman was not con demned until he should be confronted with his witnesses but the testimony was not only ex parte but was mutilated palpably mutilated most adiiotly mutila ted extracts even the day pf his exe cution wirz had been offered a commuta tion ofhis sentence if he would implicate jefferson davis but wire's answer to his counsel was scbade you know that i have always told you that i do not know anything about jefferson davis ho bad no connection with me as to what was done at andersonville i would not become a traitor against him or ajybody else even to save my life but said hill what poor wirz within two hours of his execution would not say for his life the gentleman from maine says to the country for tbe sake of keeping his party iu power sensation sir chiistianity is a falsehood human ity i3 a lie civilization is a cheat or the man who would not make a false charge for his life was never guilty of wilful mur der hill went on to argue that on the logic of blaines speech holding davis respon ble for tbe acts of winder president grant might be held responsible for the acts of mcdonald and joyce and he ask ed whether blaine meant to establish a rule ol construction that would authorize the country to arraign president grant for complicity in the whiskey frauds was president grant responsible he asked for credit mobieler for the sauborn contract or for the frauds of tbe district of colum bia and yet grant had absolutely sent to the senate of ihe united states for confirmation for a high office tbe name of a man alluding to alexander r shep herd ot washington who stood charged before the country with the grossest pec ulations and frauds on this district after tbe charges had been made and while they were pending he hill j was nei i ther the author nor disciple of such'politi cal logic but if the gentleman blaine's ' proportion with regard to davis were j true theu by the same logic general i grant instead of being entitled to a third term was enliiled to 20 terms in 20 peni tentiaries laughter extract — whatever horrors had ex isted at andersonville not ono of them could be attributed to an order of tbe confederate government and every one of them grew out of the necessity of the occasion which necessity had fastened on the confederates by the conduct of the other tf ide | he challenged blaine to meet him face to face and fact to fact in the di.-cussion of the question declaring tbat the time was of lhe past when the country could accepc the impudence of assertion for ' the force of argument or the recklessness of statement for the truth of history mr hii had some articles regarding the prison at elmira piatt of xew york asked him who was the author of the lei ter hill replied that he did not know piatt declared as living within thirty six miles of elmiia that the statements were unqualifiedly false hill after reading from surgeon-gen eral barnes tbat 12 per cent of confede rate prisoners in federal hands died and less than 9 per cent of federal prisoners in confederate hands said my friend addressing blaine with great emphasis who is the murderer ? i would believe surgeon general barnes in preference to any politician over the gentleman piatt he sayd he lives 36 miles away from el mira perhaps he could have smelled thc small-pox that far he certainly could not have seen it and 1 venture to say that if the small pox was at that prison camp one could have g t nearer than 36 miles he is a wonderful witness laughter but the great question is at last who wjs responsible for ihat state of things and that is really the . only important ques tion hill went on to discuss the history of — - , tssest ' the exchange of prisoners dwelliug on the fact that the cartel which was established in 1862 ivas interrupted in 1s63 and that the federal authorities actually refused to continue the exchange at this point hill's hour expired but by unanimous consent he was allowed to proceed without any limitation as to time blaine asked him whether he had not been a member of the confederate sen ate hill replied that he had been blaine then proceeded to quote a reso lution offered in the confederate congress by senator hill of georgia to thefollow effect : that every person pretending to be a soldier of the united states who shall be captured ou the soil of the confederate states after the 1st of july 1863 shall be presumed to have entered the territo ry of the confederate states witb intent to excite insurrection and to abet murder and that unless satisfactory proof be ads duced to the contrary before the military court before which his trial shall be had he shall suffer death he asked hill whether he was the au thor of that resolution hill — i will say to the gentleman from maine very frankly that i have not the slightest recollection of hearing it be fore blaine you do not deny it ? hill — i do not know — my own opinion is that i never was the author of that resolution but i have no recollection of it if the gentleman cai give me the circumstances under which it was intro duced i may recollect blaine on the 1st of october 1s62 the judiciary committee ofthe confeder ate congress made a report and offered a series of resolutions and thereupon sen ator hill of georgia is recorded as having offered the resolution which i have iust read hill — i was chairman of the judiciary committee in the senate and very likely like tbe chairman of the committee ou rules at the last session i may have con sented to that report laughter at the expense of blaine.j blaine — does the gentleman admit that he made that report ? hill — i do not know but it is very likely derisive laughter on the re publican side blaine — the copy which i have quo ted from is entitled republicanism in america i wish io kuow whether the gentleman was the amhor of that resolu tion hill — i really do not recollect re newed laughter on the republican side blaine persistently — thc gentleman does not say tbat he was not the author of it hill — i do not but i do not think i was the author of it blaine — i thought that as the gentle man's effort was to s^ow the humane character of the confederate congress this might aid him in remembering the fact hill with all due deference to the gentleman he did not think any such thing laughter he thought he would divert me from the purpose of my argument blaine apologetically — oh no : the gentleman ran have all the time he wants hill — what measures the confederate government might have thought proper to take at that time to protect the women and children of tbe confederacy from insurrection i do uot recollect ; but i shall not be diverted by the gentleman from maine from the course of ray argu ment to go into the history of slavery or of the insurrection or john brown's raid i know this : that whether i or any other gentleman or the committee was the author of the resolution and which i thiuk more than probable our purpose was not to do injustice to any man woman or child north cr south but to adopt what we deemed stringent measures to protect our wives aud chil dren from servile insurrection and slaugh ter while our brave sons were ou tho field loud applause on the democratic side j hill passed iu review the effort b of the confederate government to get rid of their prisoners and concluded this branch of his subject hy saying : summing up mr hill then proceeded to fum up his argu ment and said : ' what have we proved ? i have proved that the federal authorities broke the cartel deliberately i have proved that they refused to reopen that cartel when ap proached by mr stephens as a commission solely on the ground of humanity i have proved ihat they made medicine contraband of war and thereby left uh to the dread necessity of supplying prisoners wilh such medicines as could be improvised in tbe confederacy i have proved that they refused to allow the sur geon of tiieir own army to accompany their prisoners to the south i have proved ihat tiie confederate authorities proposed to return vour sick and wounded without an equivalent in august 1864 and that yon never deigned to apply until december 1sg4 i iiave proved tliai your high otfieers in command gave as a reason why they would not exchange prisoners tbat il would be humane to the prisoners but cruelty to the soldiers in the field it was a part of your military policy to let your prisoners suffer raiher than that the confederacy tdiould have an increase of the military force i have also proved tbat wilh all the horrors which you iiave made such a noise about as occurring at andersonville greater horrors occurred in the prisons where you held your troops and that the percentage of d ath was three per cent greater among our prisoners iu your hands than amon your prisoners in our hand when the gen tleman from maine rises again to give birth to that unmitigated effusion of genius without a fact to sustain it in which he says and her before my iod measuring my words known their full intent and importaut i declare thn neither the deeds of the duke of alva in th low countries uor the massacre of st bartho lomew and the thumb 3crews and engines of torture of the spanish inquisition began to com pare in atrocity
