excited discussions that mr blaine inangera*ed in the house was that the colored mem hers from the south were very anxious to vote for universal amnesty and that those of ihem who did not were only and with difficulty prevented from doing co by the personal appeals of mr blaine if these colored men had all voted according lo their own inclinations and as they would have done but for ihe earnest appeals of mr blaine mr randall's bill would have passed the house the correspondent of the new york tribune says that all but one or two of the colored members were pers a ad ed to vote no the tribune says there was no busier man in the house before and dur ing the decisive roll-call than mr blaine i there was probably not a single colored j representative whom he did not appeal | to and at times he had ihem gathered around him while he stood in lhe midst arguing the question in a very earnest ma tier the philadelphia times de scription of the scene is still more graphic '*'! he colored members were particlarly troublesome writes its correspondent and at times they would be surrounded by a half dozen of blaine's active assist ants usually with blaine loo at the head and subjected to threats caji'h ry entreaty and every species of argument the springfield mass republican letnark lhat to those who know how the ex speaker is looked up to on the republi can side and who hare felt the really i tremendous personal magnetism of the j man it wiil not be a matter of surprise ' that so many of the colored men yielded j their convictions and instincts the sur j prising thing is that even one of ihem ; was found capable of resisting him one i was haralson of alabama an old negro j pure blood who has known in his lime i what sensation is of standing at the auc i tinn-bl ck and hearing one's self knocked i down to the highest bidder surely if j any man in the house had lhe right to i be bitter vindictive implacable haralson was the man yet he voted for universal j amnesty and voted for it in spite of the i most strenuous efforts of mr blaine | white educated wealthy aspiring to the : highest honors in the gift of a christian people — to make him vote the other way there is something in lhis contrast be tween the temper and action of the two men which may well set the public think ing — which may well set mr james g blaine thinking also i supreme court court met at 10

it to be come cold it the shoe or boot is thin the foot is still further chilled and lhe blood which circulates with difficulty through it u sent back to the internal or gans with a temperature much below lhat required for health exposure to cold causes the blood-vessels to contract so that less blood can circulate through them thus one evil creates anoiher thin soles being insufficient

great a quantity of blood being crowded into them this is the chief origin of the headaches from which school girls suffer so much but which are usually attributed to study high heels are very

world and read a surgeon's story lhe sub ject of which was a remarkable hero ine who figured conspicuously in the late war and was connected with the sixth new york regiment and who afterwards proved to be the wife of the colonel of that regiment now as to the authenticity of the sur geon's story i am unable to vouch yet il called to my mind a tine romance which happened in the confederate army and can be vouched for by many good and brave men now living in the state of north carolina the romance was as follows : the 26ih regiment n c troops had for its colonel a man ol great capacity and lhat quality of mind which enables men lo encounter danger and d.ffieulties with firmness and without f-ar the colonel was known by the popular name of zi-b b vance during lhe spring of 1s62 the 26 h regiment lay for a while four miles below kinslou n c c«'l zli had previously received a com mission from the confederate govern ment lo raise a legion to he known as vance legion in ihe 26 h reg't ar.d in co a was a private hy the name of blalock 1 think iho not sure as to name who received n furlough for 30 days upon condition that he bring buck wi;h him a new recr i for the legion at the ezpira'ion n the 30 days private of co a returned to camp with a recruit according lo stipulation who was imme diately mustered into service consistent with the army regulations i had previ ous to this time received an appointment from col vance lo drill recruits conse quently this new soldier was placed in my squad for military instruction the rr-crnit had the appearace of a boy about 18 years ot age iiis voice was soft and effi-minate and though it did not seem to be that ofa man we could not doubt that it was a boy i drilled lhe new soldier in squid wilh many others lor about six weeks and dining the time i would fre quently march the squad down to t lie creek and all that wished would go in bathing the young recruit never par ticipated in the sports confined to the water but no one thought anylhi-g about it as some of the mountaineers had a vi-ry great horror of the poisoned waiers of i east'-rn north caralina and the recruit i was from ashe or wilkes county soon after the return of the private of co a with his recruit he was laken down with a very troublesome affection known to surgeons as arthritis or white swelling and after suffering the most tormenting and severe pain for more than a month lie was honorably discharged from military service by dr boy kin who was surgeon of ihe 26 h reg't at that lime the same day and hut a few hours af er pri vate blalock had received his papers from the doctor the recruit walked into col vance's tent and said col vance my husband has been discharged from military service on account of di.-ahiltv and is going home now i

was a female in male disguise and the wife of blalock col vance i sent foi dr boykin to come and take the ' case in hand as it had proved too much for him dr boykin being a very able and learned

days of should be penny savings farmers cannot make a wiser improvement on the past than looking to the improvement in the care and quality of their slock whatever breed of stock may be adopted let it be good and well bred and of a fixed type and suited to the section and purposes it is intended for for some purposes shorthorns and their grades are best milch cowa should be allowed a space of five feet wide and ten to eleven feet deep or if in double stalls of nine feet and two in each haltered to the corners and their halters to allow them to feed in the trough wiih a midway and the trough of roomy size to hold a good supply of food wilh several bars across the top to avoid waste of food by each cow the doubled stall of nine feet is better than single stalls of five feet as there is more room for milking and feeding light old worn trace chains two and a half feet long to the fork with a t at one end and rings at the olher with a link be tween each of several rings to suit the size of the necks 1 losely should be used as halters these temporary stalls may be made in various ways and the shelters may be of straw or frame work rather than not at all the building of the farm may sug gest olher plans for feeding and milking under shelter the stalls should be lit tered and the droppings thrown out each morning and if not too cold and stormy let the slock onl each day for exercise and to graze old sods if to be had near by forage cut up is of advantage to the stock and economy in its use and i meal and bran sprinkled on it after damp ening the cut food renders the food more acceptable to stock and beneficial to m'lk producing calves should be cared for and fed with bran or meal twice a day on thin cut food and not allowed to get poor the same is important in their yearling form as they must be sustained at that early age and it costs but little to keep their little frames th»s also applies to wean ing colts ; neither should they be crowd ed together and of different ages oid slock should be housed or shelter ed as lar as practicable especially in stormy weather and so fed that each p-ets its shire stock ca tie may be sheltered from storms and falling weather by var ious cheap modes and there is no better work done on a farm than uniform cue for i stock iu winter and it is astonishing how a little meal or bran wiil show a marked elf.*ct on young

turning their attention to sheep husbandry there is no use of attempting it wilh inferior sheep unless pure bred bucks is alonce used to improve them lt i useless to attempt this iu baudry unless the flock is sufficiently large to deserve attention the planter must give his personal attention to the business unless he has absolute confidence in his shepherds the flock must be the object of as constant attention as the corn or cotton field the cotton and grain crops on the plantations need not be reduced — in fact ihey will be greatly increased and be made on less surface of land by the heavy manuring trom the sheep it is estimated lhat a flock of 1,000 sheep folded on the one acre of land will thoroughly manured it in two nights ; or in round m-mbcrs 180 acres of land will be so thoroughly manured in one year as to easily produce one bale of cotton to the acre the manure of the sheep alone will more thau pay for their keeping there is another view to take of sheep husbandry that is not often mentioned as soon as we have an abundance of fio ' wool on each farm woolen factories will spring into existence and a large propor tion ef our wool and coiton will be man ufactured

a growth sufficient for j transplantation the early seasons have i passed the losses occasioned by the j delay alone in planting must have been j immense ; and during the present year j many growers of tobacco wholly failed i in occupying a part of their hills made j for that purpose during a recent visit to the county of i amherst i met with mr james w phillips an intelligent citizen and planter of that county with whom i conversed at large on the best modes of rearing and i managing tobacco from him i learned \ that he was in possession of a remedy against the fly which he had tried with : unvarying success for thirteen years past ; wiih the excepiion if one year when no ; llir-3 appeared lie had not divulged it 1 before but is willing that it should be made public now ; and as it is both sim pie and cheap i send for publication in ) the planter a copy of what was written j down from his dictation as soon as the cal tie are taken in ! from grazing and put up for winter feed i ing

well or better than any other he has ever tried v'mi r covers his beds with brush as is the general custom and rather thicker than usual ; but never removes it entirely until shortly before the plants are drawn he thinks it belter to have two layeis of brush one across the other as in case the plants are loo much shaded the sec ond may be removed without disturbing the first and thus injuring the plants tho remedy here proposed may nol be as new to all your readers as it was to myself but i doubt if it be generally known and mr phillips assures me that a thus compounded it is original with iii
