"SMOKED MEATS IN SUMMER —~From the Western Farm Ji ournal'we clip the following directions by the observance of 'which a farmer-having no tight smoke-house inay preserve ‘inms;{ﬁ% con 4nd smoked beef through the suminer from the attacks of flies.. It says: “We do not consider the smokehouse, as ordinarily built, to be the best place to preserve cured meats. Qur July and August suns are geners ally so hot as to cause the fat parts to, melt more ‘or less, and this destroys. the integrity of the whole, The very best way we know is to wrap the meat in thick brown paper, and euclose eacly jpiece separately in sacks made to fit. Sew tight; dip them into a preparation of sliked lime, of the consisténcy. ‘of ordinary paint. Then the pieces may be backed in barrels, with plenty of ashes, or better, pounded ‘charcoal, and keep in a cool, well-ventilated cel--lat. or in the coolest place in the barin. Aunotliér plan is to wrap in -paper-as before directed, then in an outer layer, aud pack in barrels with some good absorbeut. Still another plan s, after

wrapping -in thick brown paper, to pack in barrels-with 'plent{ of dry cub straw; examining them occasionally

10 see they do übt mold, if the weatlier. is’damp for-any considerable length of tisme. - -By this plan, however, it is difficult to keep the meat from contracting mold it entirely . excluded frem light and air, and where light mdajriumig enter insects and mold are pretly sure to follow, A smokehouse builf so as ggfﬁrevent the admission of light, and at the same time isure ventilation and a degree of

coolness, so that the meat will, not mold, may be had by placing it under the shade of a spreading ‘tree. It should be built of brick, with an ample flue on top, protected with blinds at the sides and a wire gauge at the bottom to. prevent the admission of insects, the gauze to be ¥émoved when

smoking meat. "Another flue at, the % bottom, protected with gauze, allows the admission of air. Thus the house ' may be kept cool and well ventilated ‘and, by throwing it entirely open occasionally at night, when dry, meat * may be kept perfectly for a long time. ' This smoke-house may be used tor a variety of purposes, as for the keeping of ashes in districts where wood is used for fuel” ) :

° THAT METEOKR. ' ' Nes Brillaney — Remparks About . o Shooting Stars, - o ./ The brilliant meteor; which was so “plainly visible in-this place on Satur- . day evening, July 8, is causing much discussion. The Chicago Z'imes of the follewing Tuesday said: -74 t is'too early to determine the path .. of the great xg:t&o%a whose;‘é brilliant appsearance on T evenan ave ~Chicago a surprise. %ng;enige%tg obseyvers in this.city agree that it flashed into visibility not far from the consteilation Ophincus, and Jisappeared - aittle higher up than Cassiopeia. Reliable intelligence from other places will give us a tolerably good idea of -~ its distance above the earth, and its probable course.- ol ST Shooting stars are of common occur- .- rence. There is rarely a clear and: - dark night in which hundreds of them may not be counted by a watchful ob- * server. - Each voiume of space equal to that of the earth -(in the eartl’s path) holds probably not less than 10,000 or 15,000°0f these little pocket planets. In other words, the earth ~ displaces, this number every seven .. minutes, or.in round numbers, at least ' a‘hundred thousand each hour. This + reckoningisindependent of the August and November “showers,” at whieh - times the earth passes through two belts of meteors, or through one great ring system at two points. There are - supposed to be notless than 100 of these belts, consisting of myriads of" . fragments of cosmical matter travels ing inorbits of all degrees of eccentricity around- the sun, through which " the earth passes in its annual revolu- ¢ tions, some more and some lesg thickly ¢ poimted. - TR Y o s:l' shooting stars, however, are - equal jn appearance;, magnitude and. | brilliancy to our dashing visitors: In 1799, during a November shower of . extraordinary character a great num- * | ber-of meteors were seen having an " ‘apparent diameter considerably larger than that of the moon. The meteor - Saturday, we should judge, might compare with those observed on that memorable - occasion by Humboldt and ctliers, : Hix In some instances these meteors get entangled in the earth’s attraction, and lacking sufficient veloeity: to escape, fall to the grounds. Indeed, there is ground for the supposition that thé | - earth has been sensibly increased by -the importation in ‘this manner of ex-- +, 'tra telluric matter. A block-of mete- - oric iron weighing more than 1,000 pounds may be seen in the museum at. Paris. About 29 years ago, the writer was shown & meteoric stone of consid- ‘ 'erable size w,hic: had just fallen in. ~ Lynn county, ’ﬂx&ﬁviﬂ found: immediately on the disappearance of the meteor, and before.it had fairly eoo;e?.

‘., Lyneh Lawin Ohio. { George Mangrum justly died at the. end of a rope on Saturday, July 8, at New Richmond, Ohio. "L'his fiend was presented " with his hempen collar by’ the enraged citizens. He claimed to be a farmer, and said -he wanted a girl to stay-at his house for several weeks, as his wife was sick. . On’ Thursday he found a young. lady, and told her he lived three miles distant, which they would have to walk. They started on their jeurney, and that evening he was seen in New Richmond with the lady’s basket and shoes. ~He sold them for | one dollar to a negro woman, and inquired, as before, for a girl. He again succeeded in finding one, and started “home? with her, this time locating his farm in another direction.. ‘When he got her in thie woods he brutally ravished her and left her for dead. She I'ezvived and staggered home,where consciousness soon came to her, and she told the terrible story. Mangrum was found in a.saloon and arrested. Search was made for the former lady, and her-corpse was soon found in a - ravine. This exasperated the citizens of New Richmond and they speedily meted out to this villain of villains a death .which he richly deserved. 1t is thought he had accomplices, and rumor. says he had engaged two other young ladies to work for him; whom he undoubtedly intended treatifig in the same fiendish manner. If there is a region a million times hotter than fire, all such villains certainly deserve to be eternally plunged therein. )

i il O BO—— Reformers Pledged Against Hayes

“We shall support no candidate who, however faverably judged by his friends, is not publiely known to possess those qualitiés of mind and character which the stern task of genuine reform requires. . This.is no time for so called availability coming from -distinction gained on fields of action foreign to the duties of government; nor for that far more dangeryous sUrt of availability which consists in this, that the candidate be neither so bad as to repel good citizens, nor so good as to discourage bad ones. Passive “virtue in the highest places has been too often known to permit the growth of active vice below. = A man to be entrusted with -the Presidency this year must have deserved not only the confidence of honest-men, but gtlso the Jear and hatred of thieves) 3

THE CANDIDATES,, [From the Springfield Republican.]

Messrs. Hayes and Wheeler are indebted for their good fortune—if it is good fortune—to two things.

QEE L ' ‘ —— e — © . "Patriotie Advice. ) The writer of this, several weeks 4go, listened to a conversation between Gov.

The Goy-. ernor was .asked what icourse should ‘be taken in-ease some compromise of principles might be necessary to secure his nomination. “Sacrifice your candidate,” was his prompt, almost ‘abrupt reply. - : e The words show what kind of man is Gov. Tilden; ' He knows no such thing as compromise where principle is i§plved; - He'ean be swerved neither! to the right nor to the left from | what he regards as his path of duty.’ . Happily neither. the compromise’ of Pprinciple ner the candidate’s sacrifice ‘has Leent demanded. ‘A sound plat-. form and a man-of iron will and in flexible purpose to stand upon it,is the gift|of the Democracy to the country. —Bpffalo Couster. ~ » » A Mealthn-Promoting Stimuyame,

Dut-Door Meeting at Goshen. (From the Plymouth Democrat )

In the evening following the convention, the Warsaw band honored Mr. Kelly with a serenade at the Violet House. Three or four hundred people were present, and loud calls being made for the next congressman, Mr. Kelly came forward and delivered a characteristic:speech, which was listened: to with marked attention. Mr. Kelly, being a farmer, has a happy faculty of illustrating his points, in regard to the laboring interests of the people possessed by few publi¢ speakers.” He has been a farmer and laboring man in North-eastern Indiana for the past thirty-five years, and has accumulated a handsome competency by economy, industry and the sweat of his face. -He will make the race for Mr. Baker as, “hot as a lime-kiln,” before it'is ended and unless we are much mistaken in the political signs of the times he will come out of the contest with a. few hundred to spare. Capt. J. A. S. Mitchell of Goshen, in response to loud calls responded in an elegant address of half an hour pay-. ing a glowing tribute to the Services of the people’s great reformer—Samuel J. Tilden, and Indiana’s next Governor “Blue Jeans” Williams.® Mr. Mitehel] is a fine speaker and should let his voice be frequently heard during the coming campaign. - o _, Thompson’s'Joke. . - : - MEeMPHIS, July 11th.—A. sensation was created here to-day by the arrest of the notorious negro named Francis Thompson, who has figured here:for the past fifteen years as the keeper of a notorious assignation’ house, and passed for a woman. During the sitting of the Congressional Investigation Committee here after the riots of 1866, he figured extensively as a witness, and swore that during the night of the riot she (?) was outraged thirteen fimes - During- the past five years Thompson has been arrested frequently, but always managed to escape the clutches;of the law; but the suspicions of the officers being ‘ aroused, several physicians were called in fand an examination developed the fact that Thompson was a man. He was made to don the male garb and sentenced to the chain gang for 100 days. ! . %

His Lieutenant is said to be a half-breed Sandwich Islander, who speaks a half dozén modern languages, and all the Indian dialects, and is a man of a high order of ability.. In view of this class of leadership, and of the further faet that the Sioux, whenever they. have taken the field, have shown themselvyes-first-class fighters, the present campaign promises to be ‘one of unusual duration and severe fighting. Sitting Bull has thus far shown himself an aboriginal Nopoleon, possessing all the originality, promptness and sagacity of France’s great leader. :

THE THREE Looxs.—A Christian was once asked how he could keep so calm among all the cares of life. He answered: “I train my eyes; for all evil as well as good comes from the mind to the heart. Every morning ‘before I enter upon my daily work among men I fix my eyes thoughtfully on three things. ‘First, I raise them toward heaven, and remember that life and its struggles will be over there. Secondly, I look toward earth, and reflect how small. a: portion‘of it'l shall need when T am laid in my - grave. Thirdly, and finally, I look upon the surging crowds of mankind, and think how much sadder many of their lives are than mine.
