Hints for Jane Work. American Agriculturist lor Jane. Climbers need support, and those not disposed to cling should be tied to the trellis or other object. Jure is a pood time for pruning. Larger limbs may be cut away now, covering all cuts with varnish, paint or melted grafting wax. The winter porta of cqaasb.es should be planted now. Mncn care Is needd to keep the joung vines from insects. Paris Green maybe used; hand picking takes time, but is effectual. Sow the main crop of beets and carrots, if not dornt already. Keep the weeds out and the soil loose. A succession of the 'Egyptian," to use while young, should be sown, using the thinnings for greens. Cbbaze and cauliflower need frequent hoeing. Plants for late sorts in seed beds should not be too crowded; they need weed ing frequently, and If infested with the cabbage worm, sprinkle with ashes. If the weather has been cold and backward and injured the Limas, put In more at once. Tnese and other pole beans need attention to make them all take to the poles. Sow Bush sorts, a the "Refugee," for succession and picking. In order to have a fine velvety turf, the mower must be frequently ued; at least once a week. In the corners and under the trees where a mower can not go, a sickle must be used. A neat lawn is the leadiDg feature of a well kept place. The sooner fruit is thinned the b;ttr. It is seldom overdone, and too frequently entirely neglected. Thinning increases the size and improves the quality of the fruit, and with young trees, just starting into bearirg, it is a necessity. Sowing for succession is a useful method of prolonging the sesason of many vegetables, and Bhould be more generally practiced. By sowing beans, peas, corn, etc. at intervals of a week or eo, these valuable vegetables may be had through the season. Buckwheat may be sown during this month, and may be made a profitable crop, especially upon nwly cleaned ground where the mellowing effects of the crop are of importance. The Silver-Hull buckwheat is better than the common variety, the yield "belrg greater, and the flour from it is whiter and of a finer quality than the ordinary sort. The green shoots of raspberries that are .growing now are the ones to bear the next year's fruit, the fruiting ones this season dying after the berries have ripened. When the growing shoots reach four fet they should be pinched off. Thoss not required ' for next year are to be treated as weeds. The old canes are to be-out away after fruitingGrape vines one yeaT old, set this spring, should only grow one shoot; let it be the strongest and best one put forth. O'der vines recently set should not be allowed to bear this vear. The young growing shoots of old vices should be tied up before they fall over or are broken by the winds; colt cotton twine or bast bark are the best for the purpose. Grafts let this ppnng should be looked to; and if the bud or bade. grow too vigorously, pinch back into shape; In fact a graft should be treated as if it were a young tree. Cut away all shoots that come upon the stock below the graft, that the nourishment may go to the graft. Bee that the branches of the graft have plenty of room, and the growth is net interfered with by surrounding branches. "With 'newly pirated trees It will ray to give a little time in -examining their condi tion. II they are loose or leaning to one side, a minute spent in pressing the soil about them with the foot will often save them. A mulching, if not already given to the young trees, should be provided before the long drouth. Almost any subs ance that will cover the soil and protect It irem the sun will do. Swedish turnips may be sown this month. indiills thirty inches apart.. A plenty of seed should be sown, to insure an even stand of plants two pounds per acre is not too much. The land hould be well manured, and thoroughly prepared a nne tilth is especially essential to success on old ground Thin the plants, when the second leaf appears, to at least twelve to fifteen inches apart. Partial or total failure is, in many cases, to be attributed to defective thinning. Clover and timothy should be cut when in full blossom; if allowed to get ripe, the quality of bay is not eo good. By beginning early the work need not be hurried. Lsa the mower after the dew is off in the fore noon. Cut only as much as can be well cared for. It is often remarked that the average quality of bay ia not so good as be fore the introduction -of the mowing ma chines, from the temptation to cut the grase faster than it can be -cured. This ia the time when the rake and the hoe count for so muck in the tuccess of the Beacon's work. The weeds mu3t bs kept down, or much of the labor of preparation and planting is los. I is observed th the rake is put before the fc.De, a id it shot 1 1 be eo in the garden. A frequent use of along And sharp-tootned eteel race will sive much hard hoeicg. and at the same time keep the eoil in a better condi lion for the ycang growing plants. The picking and packing of strawberries for the market requires much care and good judgment All over ripe berries should bs excluded, as one such will be crashed and spoil the whole basket. The treatment of the bed after fruiting depends upon the method of cultivation. In any case the mulch ia to bs removed and the soil forked over. When the plants are -kept in hills, the runners are to be cut as fast as they appear. In the alternate system they are allowed to take root be tween the rows, and tbe old plants are re moved later in the season. Kunneis struck in email pots of soil will be realy to plant -out in Aueust, and will give a good crop next year, Layer the earliest and atrongest innoen for this purpose. CrRR4;Vr8 A5D GOOSEBCIE8 - A mulch hould be applied early in the season; litter from the barn-yard, or "chip dirt" from the wood yard may be used, t or the "worms ose White Hf ltebore, a table-spoonful of the dry powder to a pailful of water, the Helle bore being first scalded before going into into the pail apply with a syringe of fountain pump, repeating tke ap plication ia a few days, and continuing until the worms are all killed. If shoots start on th boshes where they are not wanted, they ahould be removed, thus saving much pruning in tbe fall, and the remaining growth is strengthened thereby. The fruit m frequently sold witn greatest profit whi'e green ; especially is this the ease with gooseberries, ror making jelly pick tbe fruit vhen fully colored, but before it la "dead rips." Fromptne In Farm Work. lElmira Free Press. 1 There are few things more Important to success in farming than promptness In executine all necessary farm work, in thn planting, cultivation and harvesting of al farm crops it Is essential tbat the work be done in time, for delay is liable to result in Iosj. if not in entire failure. Work done too lata is rarely as effect lal aa that done in sea son, besides being often much more expen live. For instance: if the cultivation of field of corn when weeds are starting thick or fast, ia delayed a week too long, the work becjmes much more laborious ana cosuy and besides the crop is permanently injured. - In sueb cases . tha work of cultivation increases by a ratio with each day it ia delayed. If the planting of a field of com is delayed a week too late, it may not have time to become fully developed before autimnal

frosts, thus ciueing toss. A farmer who Is habitually behind with his work is not a

good farmer. He proves his inability to manage bis business properly, buch a farmer, like a man in debt, and paying interest, labors under a disadvantage. He either attempts too much, hires too tittle help, or, as is frequently the case, uses too little head work. If we wish always to be prompt with our work we must employ some thought in our buiinefs. Forethought is one of the far mer's best servants. It will, if properly guided, enable us to so arrange our business that our work shall be done at the right Ima. If we do not think of our work until it is time to do it. we will almost always find unexpected circumstances which will less delsy. The successful provides for emergencies cause more or farmer sees and before they arise, and lays out a plan of ac Hon at the commencement of every piece of work. K'ght here we believe is the line that often exists between good and poor firmers, or those who are successful in the business and those who are not. The successful farmer takes great interest in his work, and is- con tinually looking ahead or forecasting, bo that he is never in doubt what to do or how to do it. The successful farmer employs little thought in his business, lays few careful plans, and when emergencies arise has no provisions made to meet them, and thu, often gets behind with his work, and in his haste to "catch up" with it, suffers loss, for haste makfcs waste." Dairy Management in Holland. New England Farmer. An American lately visited one of the Btock and dairy farms in Holland, and gives the followiDg interesting account of what he saw: "They used tbe very same stable at the arm tbet they did in the fourteenth cent ury. They nave little rings in tne couing, with cords passing through them, by whic.i the cows' tails are held up to keep them from getting dirty. The stable was carpeted, and had plants and flowers in it. Tbe floor of the stable was of small bricks. At the back of the stalls was a trough of masonry about eight inches wide and nine inches deep, with a ditch or reservoir of water at one end. As soon as the trench was dirtied they turned in water, and all the was earned out to a covered vat, whence it could be removed to the fiIds or wherever they wanted it moved to. Tbe cows were as clean, if not cleaner, than your horses. All the fastening they have is a little cord around their necks, and they are bo gentle and quiet that tbey doa't reqairanything stronger. They uae brass milk pails instead of wood or tin ones. Everything was as sweet and neat as any parlor I ever sew, the stables and stalls for the horses beiogovered with matting ou have no idea how clean everything wss." Salt for Animals. Many farmers are very stingy in the matter of supplying animals with salt. They stm ia think that tbe money Invested In salt for animals is virtually thrown away, and they etudy how to avoid this loss a tar as possible. Occasionally a farmer will find that some sheep will live six months without eating salt, and he loses no time in making his discovery known to the world. Ala rye proportion of farmers furnish salt to tneir animals but once a week. On theet occasions they eat so much of it that they feel uncomfortable duriDg tbe following day. Stock of all kinds should have salt constantly within their reach, whether they are in the yard or pa n ture. It is very easy to keep a suppi of salt in an open box in a shed where cattle can cave iree access to it. n requires dui little ingenuity to erect a salt box in a pas ture bo tbat its contents will not be wasted. All that is required is a hanging roof that can be moved by the heads of cattle and sheep. When cattle have a supply of salt always within their reach they will never eat so much at any time as to render them ud com for table. Salt is not a Luxury, but a necessity, and it should be supplied without stint. Animals know better than their owners do how often they require salt. Any stock owner would object to being allowed to tatta salt but ones a week. Keep the Cows CI a. To "keep milk e'ean while in the act of drawing it, the cow must ba clean, h-er bag and teats washed and wiped before com mencing to milk her, and the milkman a hands be then washed. After straining and flatting. Bee that no foul air can -com from any quarter to taint the milk; and lor this we must be particularly careful, for euch is often borae on a strong breeze fully a mile off or more from the place where it originated. It is, of course, presupposed that all vessels used for holding the milk are kept clean and entirely clear of every sort of olora. We have often seen tbe dairy bouss placed close to the cattle yard, poultry hooee, and, wbat is foulest of all, a dirty pig pec. No wonder where this is tbe ca?e so much butter and cheese are sent to market not fit to be eaten.

Farm Paragraphs. Take care that your cattle are provided with shade to shelter them from the heat of the sun during the middle of tbe hot summer rtsys. If you have no shade trees in your pasture, let the pasture fence embrace a portion of the wood lot. If you want to get the mcst work out of the boys, with the least trouble, give them an occasional play day. So arrange your plans aa to give them a day off to go fishing now and then. Possibly it might do you good to go with them once in a while, and it might also add to their pleasure. It requires as much intelligence and sound common sense to make a successful farmer as a successful lawyer or minister. The idea tbat a young man who is not bright enough to make his way in professional or business life can succeed as a farmer is entirely erroneous. Blockheads are successful nowhere. Elgin, 111., is probably the largest butter and cheese market in the United States. In March, 255,0,2 pounds of creamery butter were sold, and 717,601 pounds of cheese, for which $174.803 C2 was received. Since January 1 the sales bave been 1,026 831 pounds of cheese, and -615,739 pounds of butter, for which $131,G(K-93 was received. Green corn and peas contain a larga quantity of sugar and albumen, and these substances ferment very readily if exposed to the ir. In canning these vegetables, they should be packed when thoroughly well cooked and boiling hot, and should be inclosed air tight immediately. They may be pae&ed in glass cans, quite full, and occasionally tbe cens may be placed in a boiler with cold water gradually heated and boiled for fifteen sainutes. This acta as preservative. During the past year there has been an increase in prices of farm animals of all kinds. The improvement hae been greatest in sheep. Horses aod mules command also a decided advance, s&oit noticeable in mules at the South and in horses at tbe East. Cattle have advanced ia the Central and Eistern districts, but nt in the &xth or on the Pacific Coast. Milk cows are not qnite so much in demand as beeves, and prices are comparatively lower, except in the trans-Missitstppi region, where there has bean an advance. A Correctionrille, Iowa, farmer sold a load of corn at that town aome time ago. When it was weighed he slyly stepped on tbe scales, and then drove off to onload. When the wagon waa weighed he took care not to be in it, and congratulated himself that he had cheated the buyer in good shape. The grain dealer called fcim in, and, after fi taring up the load, paid him in full. Aa the farmer buttoned up his coat to go out the buyer kindly asked him to smoke with him. and then talked over the crop and the price of hogs, aid the likelihood of the Maple Valley Eailroad building up that way, until the 1

farmer fairly squirmed with uneasiness about his chores at home. At last he could stand it no looger, and said he must go. Tbe dealer quietly said that was not to b j thought of; that he had bought tbe farmer at full weight and paid him his own price, and that he would insist on doing aa he plea-ed with his own property. Now is the time to protect the trees against the canker worm; the female ia ascending the trees at this season to deposit her eggs, and the best way to desoy them is to pre vent her ascent, which may be done by smearing stout brown paper with the following composition; One pint of linseed oil and four parts resin; melt them together and apply warm; double the paper and tack it to the tree so tbat there will be two leaves hangiDg down the tree; then the mofh will be as likely to gj under the first leaf as over it Pennsylvania has, to date, expanded $4,455 32 in suppressing pleuro pneumonia. Chester, Lancaster, Lehigh and York Counties have been cleared; 150 animals have been killed, for which $2.305 50 was paid; greatest number of herds in quarantine, thirty six. The disease is now practically reduced to five herds. Maryland has been the main source of infection, but as tiat Stats has passed a law similar to that of Pennsylvania, it is hoped this cause will be removed. Over 6.000 examinations have been made, and tbe special agent of the Governor fcas traveled nearly 11,000 miles. Useful HoutidioUt Hint.

Cure for a Cough: Ground flax see laud I finest pearl barley, of eech one heaping t?a- j spoonful; of pulverizsd licorice root, on heaping teaepoouful; of beet loaf sugar, one J quarter of a pound; place all in an earthen , vesssl; pour on one quart of boiling water; I cover tightly until cool, and drink of it fre- j quently. It should be made fresh every twelve hours. Tbe mo Je of making the tassels now so much used as bordering for mats, cushions, baskets, etc , is quite simple. Cut a piece of cord tbe depth toe tassel is required to be about two inches is a good length. Round this wind twenty-four times the wool (which is generally crewel) of which tbe tassel is to be made. Then with a worsted ceedle pate between the work and the cord at the top, and tie tight with another piece of wool. Slip the cord out. and, half aa inch below, tie the same piece of wool tightly round, pass the needle ba:k to the top of the tassel, and the end in ready to sew.tne basket, mat or anything else required; bat before doing so with sharp scissors cut tha loops in halt at tbe lower end of the tassel, and comb the work with a coarse comb, s that it is soft and tlaffy. Wet a fUnnel cloth in keroeene, dip it in dry whiting, and rub the plated ware. Let it dry on it, nd then polish with a cismois skin. For washing lace curtains, French or professional lacdress;8 use bleaching powder which makes the lace beautifully clear, but injures V.i-3 fabric. It is safe to do up cur tains at home. Once underaiocid th work is as simple as any washing, and cur:aics can be made tr look as well es it done up at a laundry, and will lait much longer. Frameä similar to quitting frames should ba made and covered, just tue sizs of the curtains spread across two lina a te yard and with a duster brush gently. Pa one at a time in a tub half full of tepid water, with two tab'espooafuls of ammonia. Lot them remain fifteen miDutes, turning over occasionally ana squeezing with tbe hands. After which squeeze out and plica in another tub containing the same mixture, ar.d g? through tho same process. From this place tbe certains in clear water. Squetz from this and put into a bag or pillow case and seal! in clear soapsuds. When removed from this rinse through two waters, blueing the last one. Then starch, making the starch quit) blue. (Strain both blue water and ftareb, that it may contain no epecks ) Then streich the curtains and baste on tu the frames. Dry out of doors if possible. A solution of one and a quarter pounds of white soap and two-thirus of an ounce of spirits of ammonia, dissolved In twelve gallons of soft water, will impart a beautiful and lasting whiteness to any flannels dipped in it, no matter how yellow they may have been previous to their laimereion. After bing well stirred round tor a short time, the articles should be taken out and well washed in clean cold water. A bit of salt takes the unpleasant "bite" from horseradish, as preprd with vinegar, f jr a spring relish with meat. Some of Miss Corsox's Teachings PotitO'S. anv time of the year, can be made mealy if boiled in salt ana water and drained, and then covered with a thick towel and Uit in back of the rant; five minutes To retain the color of anv vegetablz p'unge it into cold water after boiling. Cooks maka the mistake o! boiling things too much. After reachtner the boiling point meats should immer. Tbe toughest meatscan ba made tender by so doing. It is always bee to nnder-season rather than to over-season food. When anything is accidentally made too salt it can be counteracted by adding a tablespoonfal of vinegar and a taolespoonful of sugar. Meats of any kind should not be washed, but wiped with a towel to preserve the juices and quality. Jelly moulds should greased with coli butter. When you wub to remove the jelly or pudding, p! untre tbe mould into hot water, remove "quickly, and the contents will come out in perfec: form and without any trouble. The lest mode of washing gentlemen's neckties is to let tbtm soak a little, then wash with hot soap and water, rinse in cold water slightly blued, dry them, dip them once more in old water, starch and wring them thoroughly; then iron. To Bleach Cloth Into eight quarts of warm water put ooe pound of chloride of lime; stir with a stick a few minutes, then strain through a beg cf coarse muslin, working it with the band to dissolve thoroughly. Add to this five buckctfu!s of warm water; s ir it well and put in the muslin. L?t it remain in one hour, turning it over occasionally that every part may get thorjuzh y bleached. When taken out wash well in two waters to remove tbe lime, rinse and dry. This quantity will bleach twenty-five yards of yard-wide muslin. The muslin will bleach more evenly and quickly it it has been thoroughly wtt and dried before bleaching. For washing silk stockings, make a strong lather with boiling water and curd soap. Leave it to get almost cold, then divide it into two parts. Wash the stockings well in one of the lathers, pressiog them up and down, but avoiding rubbing as much as pos sible. Squeeza out tbe wet, and then wash them In the second lather, in which a few drops of gin may be poured. Do not rinse in fresh water, but squee z) out the wet vsry carefully without wringing. Lay them out fiat on a piece of fine linen, and roll them up tightly until almost dry; then rub them with a roll of flannel. Sentiment for Senator Gordon In Georgia. lAugusta (Ua.) Chronicle!

WOOL GROWERS.

Proceedings of t ie Firt Day's Session A Large Eej mentation. A Papsr on the Establishment of a Wco!Bouia la This City and Discussion Upon tha Same. The Wool Growers' Association of the State met Tuesday at the rooms of tie State Board of Agriculture at 1 :30 p. m., with President Bee'.er in the chair. Owing to the unavoidable absence of Secretary Sunman, J. J. Farquhar was chosen Secretary pro tern. There were about 100 delegates present. After roll call and the reading of tbe minutes of the last meeting, T. W. W. Sanman submitted a short paper on the benefits tbat would accrue from the establishment of i wool house in the city of Indianapolis, for the purpose of selling wool at more remunerative prices. - He said: Gestlixesofthi Associatiox The time ha arrived when It Is to our lnujiests to take some action in regtrd to the establishment of p wool house, where we cuu send our wool to I graded and cid ; t for one favor, as as an AssociaUou, establishing euch a house, and let ut do something at ouce; delay is dangeron1?. I have taken the trouble to write and ask all who wsre connected with this Association how many pounds of wool they gtowed nd tola last year, and at what price, a ud as near hs 1 chu et at It fifty-eight memoirs sold laut 'year about 23,2K pounds, at an average of 1Y öt-'its per pound, malting about &j,2Ju. ölnc the wool left our hands the pri.e ran up to 70 cents, or thereabouts, but taae'60 cents for the average, aad on the amount we sold we rind it was worth or brought 13,J.)0. or about IS.5SO teat we paid to men to grade and sort our wool. Let u form, employ persons competent to do the work, aud pay them well for tiielr services. Kavo a plxcs wliere not only members of the Association can send their wool, but .open to the world. Laixe buyers Inform me they would much rather buy of us dirtctly.if we could only jret our wool together, so they would know wneu to gel It. Let us adopt 6o:ne measure in furtherance of this btep at ouce. The paper was discussed generally by tbe members, without comicg to any definite conclusion noon the matter. Secretary Farquhar read a paper delivered by W. L. Scott, of Shelby County, Kentucky, before the Kentucky Wool Growers' Meeting, on the "DISEASES OF SHEEP, A5D REMEDIES," from which the following important suggestions are taken: Parasites, both external and interna!, are the Feat of many of the diseases which our flocks are subject to. They have a very great debilUatlDg effect on the t-lieen, and, aa 1 have said before, toere Is no animal succumbs so readily to any debilitating oiseasj. 'j lie external par asltes are easily removed, and with care there is no outward parasite but which can be Uei.Jroyed. Themost troublesome external par tisite known to us is the tcub insect. This dis ease has prevailed anions sheep for ages. though not uutil the last fifty years has its true character been Known. Tne poetVligil wrote about it, and Ltvy gives a full description of this disease. It is a very sma'l mite I wnich attaches itself to thf skin, cautslug Mieep to Hen and scratcn, wtiicu soon pro ducsa w:ab ou the parts affected : they In crvase very lapidly, and soon spread from one suerp to another, and ia a biiort time the wnole tlcx-i Is auecied. Keine.Jirfi bhould be app'led as soon as your Fhe-p Khow sigus ot this disease, which Is easily detected by the sheep's rettU ssuef-s, an occasional t witching of the b-dy, frequently KcratcbiDg themselves witti the tiind loot, or niooiiug ttmrwooi witn uie iiiiutn. when I the e symptoms are seen, it would be whe to com mi-aou using remedies immediately: for If ku fit-red to remain, the whole flock will ocome inocuuted, aao mere is no contagi ous disea.se more destructive to bjln carcass and wool. The treatment herd glvn is that of Mr Stuart, tae author of a very good book on Fheep and their d seaes. He bays there are many preparations used, for this disease many of which are objectionable on account ot ttieir poisonous properties, such as mercuri al or arsenical compouuds, and which are no more effective than the lollowloir ßafe cure Tills consists ot tobacco and sulphur. In the moportlou of lour ounces of the first and one or the second, to the gallon of water; the water li brought to a boiling heat and the tobacco. either coarse, cheap leaf, or stems, which are equally good. Is teped. bat not boiled in it uutil tue strength Is extracted. The fculphur is then stirred into the liquid. When It has become reduced in temperature to l&T It Is ready lor use. Tus sneen are entirely Immersed In the 11 quid, so tnat the wool is completely saturated ilard crust of tcab bhould be broken up and removed witn care, and tho raw sn lace warn ed wim tne liquid, lae uinptog snouiu Dd re peated in aboot ten day, to desiroyany new lv natcMtu mites. The sheep tick, sometlmeserroneously called "lousv is very common on sneep, tnougti they do not increase so rapidly as the scab and sometimes become quite, troublesome.es ntclally to the lambs, after the ewes bave baen sheared, for then they levo the ewe to Koto the laruos. This insect is eaeiiy destroy ed by the above dip. The sheep loose is a very small insect, which Inrest-t ttie leg and flonks of sheep, and rarely penetrates the wool. Tney can be easily removed by greasing them witn sulphur and crease. During tli months of August and July sheep are very much annoyed ty a very troublesome pest, the gadfly. They worry the flock in attempting to de pot in their eggs In the nose of the sheep, causing them to quit feed, log, and huddle together with their noses close to the ground, and they strike the grouod with their feet. Atter the egg is deposited In the nose. It batches Into a maggiit aud crawls up In the nose, and lodges in tne sinews of the head, produclug what is known as the grub. Tne grub lives and grows In the head (ofen causiDg the sheep much pain and somet-imts death) until the next spring, when it crawls out and becomes a fly, to again repeat, the annoyance . The remrdy is to keep tne ily from depositing the eg?, w hich is easily done by having a narrow rough in the pasture, in wbicu keep tult, and every tew days smear the Inside of the trough wit h tar and grease. The sheep will go dal y to lick Kalt, and while 1 cklng will gr. more or lesn of the tar on their n.'iwes, which is very effective for the fly. There is uo animal more subject to catarrh or cold, espacially during tbe winter and spring motitus. It is caused often by cold rains, or sudden changes of temperature; sometimes by being housed in too close sheds. Sheep should never be housed without plenty of fresh air. Dry cold never hurts them, while damp cold, and a moist, warm aud Cose atmosphere Is always very injurious to the health of any flock. Diarrhea or scours, without any apparent pain orfever, or any othtr disorders, is often fouud amoug our fl cks when turned upou tresh, gre-m pjs'ures. such as ranK clover, and is sometimes caused by- being exposed to the hot sua without sufficient Bhaae. This is not a dangerous dlseise, unless suffered to continue. It Is easily cured by removing the Bheep to a f-horter pasture and giving a regular supp'y of salt. Dysentery Is quite a different disease from diarrhea, and is easily distinguished from It by lis symptoms, there Delng a high fever; the dung is mixed with blood and mucous, and is generally hard and in small lumps, causing much pain to the sheep in passing It, aud malting h!ra arch his back. Thisdiseae 1 otten caused frera long and neglected dlar Thea. Tbe remedy Is to give some purgative atvont two ounces of linseed oil. Bbeeptbns affected should be kept In some cool and quiet place. Following tbe reading of this valuable essay, a general discussicn on the subject commenced, and was continued till the close of the session. The Association will convene again this morning. "Ideal," remarks the merchant; adds the carpenter; "I turn up "I cut," spades," says the gardener; ' I pass." observes the railroad superintendent; "I leid heart;," said the beau; "I follow suit." chirps the tailor with his little bill; "I trumpet," chimes the cornet player; "You cur," shouts the butcher, as the dog ran off with a twopound steak. Thus many class js seem to be made a game of. The plnmp, nice-looking spring chickens that are allowed to roam about the lawns in the vicinity of seaside hotels are merely walking advertisements. They are not intended for table use. There is nothing in the world more beautiful than a fine healthy baby. You can not dose your baby with opiates and have It 1 healthy; but you can use Dr. Ball's Baby Byrup and still maintain the Baby's health. Price 25 cents a bottle.

läse: THE INDIANA WEEKLY STITE SEIIEL ENLARGED AND IMPROVED, 1.00 PER AIIITUM THE PAPER m TOE PEOPLE I'll OE PECTUS FOR ISSO. 'The coming presidential year promises to tf the most eventful and thri'Ung lnapolitloa, sense that we bave ever witnessed, aud wtU determine questions of the most vital Import ance to every cltleen of the Mtae and natlont It In not ImprobableIndeed, 1: is almost cer tain that, upon the determination of the questions, will depend the perpetuity of our present system of free government. These questions will be thoroughly discussed during the present session of Congress. The tdentlnel haa arranged for a first-clans, experienced special correspondent at Washington, and, In addition to giving a true account of all the general proceeding in that boiy, will (rive the leading speeches of our most prominent statesmen, and without depriving our patrons of the usual amount of reading maf.er. The Sentinel will hereafter contain a supplement, matin j in all ettxty Colatnuacf composition. In a word, it is the purpose of the Sentinel, as a steadfast watchman of public intelligence t do Its whole duty In affording Information to Its subscribers upon all these topics of such vast moment. As In 78 eo In "80 Indiana will be called upon to take a firct position In tbe trout of the great contest, and upon the success or failure of the great and gallant Democracy of our Htate will depend the fate of Issues the most portentous ever submitted to the arbitrament of & free people. We shall also specially call attention, from day to day, as occasion may require, to an en tlrely Sew Fbaae In the politics of our State we mean tbe forced emigration for temporary partisan puropses ot pauper negroes Irom tha Mouth Into Indiana. The managers and lead. ers of the Ketmblican party, in our State and at Washington, are now engaged In this nefarious work, and are attempting by every mean 8 in their power to promote its KdvHn cement. They have failed, utterly failed, to con vi nee our people of the correctness of their political principles by reason or argument' tneir appeals to hatred and prejudice have alien n armless: their lavish and corrupt expenditures of pnblic and private moneys have proved wholly futile. They propose now by an African invasion of worse than a vandal norde of beggars and mendicants to override tne voloe of the people of the State, and to arown the Democratic majority. The last resort, the forlorn hope, the assaulting party, the picket assailing corrs of Republicanism in Indiana, Is thus made upnot. from the Hunters, Harrisons, HeilmansorShackJeforda of the Bta te; not from the Intelligence or ability of that party, but Is composed of a motley, parti-colored gang of wretched field negroes from the South. The froth and scum of this worthless importation are mado nse ot to destroy the free franchise of resident citizens, and to tax our means of home labor and domestic subsistence for the support of the political tenets of a defeated faction. The sleepless Sentinel, anon the heights of popular rights and popular liberty, predlctaj that this movement will also be a failure. With respect to this before unheard ot method ol manufacturing party majorities In a State, we ah all at all times give the latest and most reliable intellige s co. The American lemocracy, the Federal Union, the rights of the people and the States, one and inseparable now and forever. The merits of the Sentinel as a general newspaper are so well known among the farmers of this State, especially those of the Democratic persuasion, that commendation of It is deemed superfluous. We will add. however, that the management has arranged and fully determined that no paper shall furnish so great practical value to its patrons for the money. In its news, its editorials, its literary and miscellany In a word, in Its general reading it shall nt be surpassed by any paper circulated in the State. It will be particularly adapted to the family clrole. We do not believe that any reading, thlnl&lng man in the State can Höret to do without the Weekly Sentinel at the small ooet ai wmcn it is inrnibhed. ÖE PREMIUM JMCEMEtWS Every Bubecrtber to the Weekly State Sentinel, at 81.25, per year, will receive a copy of the Sentinel's very able law treatise, by James B, McCreUla, Esq., entitled THE LAW OF THE FARM.
