The “Courier-Jourual” on the KuKlux.

Wk are.glad to hear one voice from the Southern States denouncing the secret labors of the Ku-Klux. The Louisville Courier-Journal has at last ventured to break the silericeinwhich the Southern editors have usually watched the course of this barbarous association. For eight years the Southern press has been chained by its prejudices or its terrors, and has looked upon the destroyers of its people With complacency or with submission. In Georgia, we believe, no newspaper is permitted to exist that is not willing to hear of barbarous deeds which it is afraid to mention, to hide the persecutions of white and colored Republicans, and to aid a policy of tyranny that is driving labor and industry from the State. The misfortunes of Louisiana may be traced to the same source. It is overspread with journals and editors who are the sure instruments of the Ku-Klux, who are duelists and bravoea, the friends and allies of noted assassins, the companions and defenders of the class of men whom the Louisville Courier paints so distinctly, the enemies of education, intelligence and humanity, and from whom have come the disasters that have driven away the trade of New Orleans, and left thousands of its buildings tenantless, that reduced the planters to bankruptcy, and made Louisiana that ruined State over which Beauregard and his companions now raise their ineffectual cry of despair. The Louisville Courier-Journal has at last spoken of the Ku-Klux in language such as we have frequently used, but which has never before been permitted or heard in Kentucky. It is well known that this infamous ’society is often cbm posed of the young men of the wealthier class at the South, that it is highly popular with the former secessionists, that when seized and brought before the tribunals its guiltj- members are sometimes caressed by politicians of the fair sex, and supported by all the discontented of the sterner, and that their crimes are never told. Their crimes are committed in disguise and under the shelter of night, and they are such as the day might blush to see. But the Courier-Journal can no longer keep silence. It seems that the house of Mrs. Mason Brown, the stepmother of Governor Gratz Brown, the Liberal candidate for the Vice-Presidency, was visited at night because Mrs. Brown had chosen bo employ negro labor. ~Acolored man was brutally murdered, his property destroyed, and various other acts of barbarism were committed the same night that scarcely can be tolerated even in Kentucky.

Nothing that we or any Northern journal have ever -said can exceed the -force with which, our contemporary how denounces the Ku-Klux. They tire “bandits,” “lynchers;” they have never done a , day’s honest work, and give their lives to whisky and gambling; they deserve flic detestation of all good citizens; their “ruffianism covers the cheek with the blush of shame;” the Bender murderers ami the lowa railroad robbers are criminals of no deeper dye; they are pests of the commonwealth: they blight its dearest interests, drive off useful citizens, lower the value of land, repel capital, banish education, and impoverish and desolate Kentucky. Such are some of the epithets and objurgations which the Courier-Journal applies to the society, and adds, with a new sense of justice, that the humblest apd most ignorant negro who toils for an honest living is, in every respect, the superior of men who terrify and ill-treat defenseless women, and pretend to decide what kind of laborers the farmers of Kentucky shall employ to tend their crops. ■‘Their ;presence,” it exclaims, “is insufferable;” they should be treated with “short shrift and a long rope.” The “devilish fraternity” is dead to every generous feeling, and “the State must meet them with the halter in ■ itefcand’’ ; ——■ , This certainljris instructive laiigtiage, and shows that Kentucky, which has suffered as much as any other Southern State from the terrors of the Ku-Klux, is gathering up sufficient courage to treat them as they deserve. Yet what can now be said of those Democratic or Liberal politicians, who. on the last election and through many previous elections were in close alliance with the secret associations, who Carried Kentucky and several other Southern States by their aid, who rejoiced over their victory in- Georgia with extravagant triumph, though they knew well how it had been won, and who have Coldly defended the Ku-Klux of Louisiana in the midst of its enormities! If the courage and good sense of the CourierJournal find a general support in its own and other depressed Southern States, it seems likely that the Northern allies of the Ku-Klux will not -win many more elections, even with the aid of what the Courier calls “the pests, of society.”— Harper'* Weekly.

The New Party Badly off.

The new party, the party without a name except the one we have given it—the Pharisees—is not getting along well. We feel some regret at being compelled I so, but a regard for truth renders it imperative. A slight, a very slight, atfiempt was made last week to give it a little life by the holding of a convention in our neighboring State of lowa, but only one-third of the counties of the State could be induced to send delegates, and U« meeting was composed of -something less than a couple of hundred lean and cadaverous politicians, who hanker daily and nightly for the flesh-pots. Mr.. John P. Irish, the-Chairman of the State Democratic Central Committee, lent the gathering the benefit of his name and presence, but there comes up a cry from the unterrifled throughout the State, that though they may be sold, they are not delivered. They inform. Mr. Irish plainer and without equivocation that he may do for himself as he pleases, but as for they will not abear it, aiffi they propose tion within a few days to declare the old faith and define anew the old landmarks. Thus it goes. In Ohio the political infant is-witkout a solitary newspaper to administer nourishment to its feeble frame; Maine and Maryland have kicked it from their it is now a Homeless and friendleag4r«lf. Its puny übbiawafr; arid then will be left the reflecflon toAte CMlago sponsor, that if it was so soon, done for, what in the world was'jt I,e ß na Inter-Ocean. i *. - I tggi ’The idea, that a party large enough to control the destinies of a State or natiorii|an be brought into existence that no men, or that will itot occasionally be deceived and intrust Dower in unworthy hands, is too puarfle for consideration. The only remedy for such cases is to bring to punishment and disgrace those who betray their trust,' and try to do better for the future. The Republican party has been doing this forywuT-M no party ever did before in this country. It has never hesitated to expose, a villain because he belonged to the party, while the policy of the party which preceded it was to cover up the crime by refusing investigation.— Ottawa (III.) Republican. - " A-.; ; • ii possible,” thinks the Misjaiuri “that the third party movement fn Ohio may come to nothing.” All the third party will have to do to come to nothing VviH be to stay right Where it is.

UT We repeat that when the cry of “farmers’ rights” is raised, nobody can be found to oppose it. You cannot build up a distinct, well-defined, enduring political organization on that foundation, because there will be nobody to question it or take a place on the other side. The practical attainment of these rights, and the redress of grievances may, indeed, be a work of legislation, and may thus be connected with political action;' but it is nevertheless a question Of detail which does not belong to th<f issues of parties arid politics.' Just here is where we say fanners may exercise their influence upon political parties in securing needed legis ; latiou at their hands; hut there is no occasion or warrant for distinct and independent political organization. The fanners themselves recognize this. The Granges disclaim a political character. Their design Is to unite the fanners and consolidate their strength so as to command such legislation as they neciL, They have already secured a new railway law’which the Republican Legislature of -IllinoM passed inresponse to their call. That fact illustrates their true method of action, and shows their true friends. Securing such results through the Republican party, they have seen no necessity or warrant for organizing a new party. Some Democratic demagogues, knowing well the desperate straits of the Democratic party, have sought to turn this movement to its account, but they have no encour agetnent from the farmers.— Albany (N. Y.) Evening Journal. Cleveland Leader thus dresses up the Ohio Democrat who has outlived all "Spectacles but the goggles of his party: “In 1840, when Gen. Harrison, the hero tlf Tippecanoe, of Fort Meigs and the Thames, was running as the Whig candidate for the Presidency, Mr. Allen invented and circulated a story to the effect that Harrison was a coward in all three of the above battles,and that the ladies of Chillicothe, to show their contempt for him as a General, presented him, in public, a red flannel petticoat! So manifestly false was this infamous story, that the people denounced it as such,' and with one accord they called him ‘Petticoat Allen.’ Nearly every Whig procession carried an effigy draped in a red petticoat, labeled ‘Petticoat Allen.’ Ladies all over the country sent him their cast-off petticoats, labeled as above, to show their appreciation of his slanderous utterances. Whenever he appeared in the streets, the very , boys ’ would yell out, ‘there comes old Petticoat Allen.” protest of these disappointed soreheads is the best evidence that-the Republican party is healthy, and has the .vigorio slorigh off. its excrescences and discard its effete matter. The body and limbs are sound and thrifty. It isnecessary, occasionally, to cut back and head in vines and trees; to lop off redundant, rampant branches that take too much from the others. And right here the policy of the Republican party has differed from that of the Democratic party. The hitter did not dare to prune for fear the parent trunk would bleed to death. This is the reason it sustained tlie Southern policy so long, after the best men in the party at the North felt that it would prove fatal. But the Republican party has freely used the knife when necessary,' and by its use has kept the tree vigorous. This is the true way to preserve health, instead of extirpating the root and setting out a new plant.— Madison ( iFfe.) Mate Journal.

£3F“The Democratic party organs are just now going through their semi-annual protestation of devotion to the “great Democratic part J'” and the reiteration of their resolution never to abandon it —never. The G. D. party thus pathetically alluded to is the party that has “been beaten every year for the last twelve years, which wasTrcaten by a majority of 725,000 at the last. Presidential ejection, and which al this time is in full possession of only three States of the thirty-seven. If there is anything “great” in this exhibit of strength iftalces a blind old war-horse to see it. To be jjreat, Jthe party must do great tilings. The old Democratic party has done some great things in its time, but its time lias gone by, and its greatness has gone with it. It wins no great victories any longer; it does not even make great fights; itsonly distinguished capacity now is for making great blunders and getting great floggings. —s'.', Louis Republican (Ex-Democratir.) An lowa political State Convention, calling itself “Anti-Monopoly,” is in session at Des Moines -to-day. Our Des Moines correspondent tells the whole story, in his dispatch, when he says: “A large number of the counties are not represented at all, and Democrats and Liberals are running the Convention.” Of course, and that is all it amounts to. The Republican party of lowa, having emphatically pledged itself to the' farmers’ cause, all who are honestly in favor of reforming the, transportation grievances and of breaking down monopoly will see that they can trust that party in the premises, apd that the proposed “new party” is nothing more than the “forlorn hope” of the played-out politicians who were so overwhelmingly defeated under the Greeley banner last fall. The” Anti-Monop-oly” party of lowa is a humbug, and the people know it.— Chicago Journal. ElpThese are the glorious triumphs of the Democratic party. Its reign has always been destructive; —When it found the’ country in a state of prosperity, it went to work to destroy it. It got up a war-cry merely to earn' an election, reckless of the destruction it brought upon material interests. The greater part of its regime was either a war upon the business of the country, an agitation for a foreign war, or a civil war in the Territories. It would never let the country have peace. It did not bring forth one measure pf importance in the administration of government tliat is now a part of it. It was never anything but a scourge to the Country. It fitly terminated its reign in treason and treachery, and its infamy will stand in our traditions as a warning forever.—Cincinnati Gazette. tg'The Republican State Convention of Pennsylvania, following the example of those of Ohio, lowa, Maine and Minnesota, yesterday passed a resolution condemning the salary-grab of the last Congress. The Republican party of the nation is evidently a unit upon 'this question, as it is also" upon the question of transportation reform, the expression of the Pennsylvania Convention yesterday upon the latter subject being in full sympathy with the farmers’ movement. In all matters of righteous reform the Republican party niaj- as safely be trusted in the present and future as it has b een in the past.— Chicago Journal. fight, after all, has narrowed down to the Old-time contest between the Republicans and ancient Democracy, and the result will be the same as all the rest from Vallandigham down to McCook. The convention yesterday attempted to go back from its advanced position to the old Camping ground which it occupied during -and immediately subsequent to the rebellion. They boldly threw off the guise which they assumed for a purpose Ihthe Greeley movement, and revealed ‘ifieirtruecliaracter—tlie'BOurboHcharacteristic—hostility to all•, progress.—Clecebind Leader. ’teT'Every Democratic Congressman from Ohio, Missouri, Pennsylvania.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.

—Tomato Honty.—To each pound of tomatoes allow the grated peel of a lemon arid six fresh peach leaves; boil them slowly till they are all to pieces, then squeeze them ' through a bag; to each -pound of liquid allow a pound of sugar and the juice of one lemon; boil them together till they become a thick jelly; then put' them into glasses and lay double tissue paper over the top. ' —1 want to give a simple remedy for a felon. Bum copperas on a shovel until it is soft' and can he inade fine. Then mix a small quantity of it with enough of the. yolk of an egg to make a plaster. (Inly mix enough at once for one plaster, as it soon becomes hard. Put a new one on whenever it gets stiff, and the felon will soon come to an end. So many people sutler so loqg with felons, I think anything that will help shorten their carter ought to be known.— Cor. B'/'x/crw Rural. , —A writer in the Maine Farmer says: “In the full of 1870 we bought a barrel of cider for three dollars, ami put it into a dry cellar, with the bunghole open. There it lay a year, and on examining it proved to be good vinegar, and we sold it to a trader for ten. dollars. . Here was a net profit of more than three hundred per cent. Hundred of barrels of cider were sold from the town that year at ten cents a gallon, all of which would have sold readily in a ycar at thirty cents per gallon. There is always a ready market for good cider vinegar, and if every gallon of cider made in this country should be turned into vinegar, the supply would not equal the demand. For want of pure eider vinegar, thousands of barrels of a villlahotis compound, injurious to health, are annually sold in the name of vinegar.” —Among all the refreshing stimulants, ginger takes first rank; and a, beer prepared from it is Vety delicious and palatable; and if provided for farmhands it will surely have the effect of banishing the whisky bottle and rum jug from the fields. Take three gallons of boiling water, three “pounds of sugar, three ounces of best root ginger, well bruised, (powered ginger will do), and three ounces of cream of tartar; stir until the sugar is all dissolved, let it stand until milk-warm, add three tablespoonsful of yeast poured on ton slicc-of bread; cover with a, cloth and let it stand ...for twenty-four hours; then strain and put into bottles, filling them only twothirds full. Cork tightly and tie down the corks, and it will be ready to drink by the next day. Lemons can be substituted fol- the cream of tartar; and the beer can be kept in a jug. For ginger-beer powders, take two drams of powdered ginger, ten drams of carbonate of soda, and half a pound of powdered white sugar; mix all well and divide into twenty-four equal parts, putting each part into a colored paper. Take two ounces of.tartaric acid; divide into twen-ty-four equal parts ; put each into a white paper. -Dissolve the contents of each paper into a separate glass, one-third full of water• mix and drink while effervescing. This is rr very cheap, refreshing and palatable drink', not only for farm hands, but for all persons in city or country.

Value of Toads in the Garden.

We encourage the harmless toads to linger about our cabbage and other vegetables as they devour every insqct that comes within'their reach. Toads thus far this season have kept our squashes and cabbage plants as free from all insects as the plants can be kept. Instead of being hateful and repulsive animals, toads are the most innocent creatures that ever ate indiscriminately anything that, had life that they could swallow. They are worth more per head to the horticulturist than chickens, even allowing that chickens did not scratch. Dr. Harris reports an interesting experiment with a toad in its efforts to swallow squash bugs, which .emit an odor..exceedingly offensive. Dr. Harris supposed the odor of the squasli bug (coreu* tristis) would protect it. from the toad: and to lest the matter he offered one ’ to a gravelooking Zwfo under a cabbage. He seized Tresgefly, but spit it out instantly, reared up on his hind legs and put his front feet on top of his head for an instant, as if in pain, and then disappeared across the garden in a series of the greatest leaps a toad ever made. Perhaps the bug bit the biter. Not satisfied with this, Dr. Harris hunted up another, toad, which lived under the piazza amLalwßys stinnedHiririself in one place in the grass, and offered him a squash bug, which lie took and swallowed, winking in' a veiy satisfied manner. Twenty other fine bugs followed the first in a few moments, with no difficulty or hesitation in the taking or the swallowing, though from the wriggling and contortions if appeared their coiners did not set well within. The stock of bugs being then exhausted a colony of smooth black larva* was found on a white birch, each about threequarters of an inch long, and over one hundred of these were fed to the waiting toad. Touching one of them with the end of a straw, it would coil around it, and then when shaken before the toad he would seize and swallow it, at first eagerly, but with diminished zest as the number increased, until it became necessary to rub the worm against his lips for some time before he could decide about it. He would then take it and sit with his lips ajar for a short time, gathering strength and resolution, and then swallow by a desperate effort. There is_.no tellingwhat the number-or result would havebeen, as the dinner-bell rung as the 101st disappeared, and by the close of the meal he had retired to his hole, nor did he appear soy four days in his sunning place.— Nem York Herald.

Keeping Cool.

How to do it is what nearly all wish to know this hot weather, and innumerable expedients are resorted to for accomplishing the purpose. It were better for us had we less hot weather. With the thermometer at 9!) ® in the shade it is certainly not advisable for any one to continue itt even moderate labor in tire sun; Yet I do think the majority of people, especially those who have nothing else to do than’ to seek their own comfort, worry themselves far more than is needful about the warm weather. As the sun moves upwards in the heavens and the mercury rises in the tube, such persons begin to feel the heat oppress them. They seek for cool and .shady places : drink .cooling draughts and. ply die fan with a vigor worthy of a better cause. “If a little is bad a great deal must be worse” they seem to think,, as the perspiration begins to appear, and diey look forward to the heat of the day..with feelings of dread, almostdespair, when they see how r difficult it already is tq keep cool. It is a great mistake to thus fight against one of the beneficent laws of nature. To perspire freely is a very proper thing to do in hot weather, and One very needful to our health and comfort. If instead of resisting it so persistently, we would go about some light work, and allow the weather and our mortal bodies to regulate themselves according to the rational laws in Such cases provided, we would soon find. ourselves much wore comfortable. Perspiring ffeely cools the body, on the same principle tITAt a pitcher of water is kept cool by wrapping about it a wet towel. It is also a great mistake to keep the house so closely shut up during the day. Pure air is of more importance in sleeping chambers than coo) air. A room into which the direct rays of the sun are never

admitted is no fit plape for ft person to sleep. In iriy occasional rambles about the country, Tofteh gbt very tired, and when I ask for the privilege of taking a quiet rest, after my favorite style of repose—that is, stretched out at full length upon my back upon the floor— and am shown, in all kindness, to what- is sup. posed to be the most comfortable room in the house, because .the coolest and the darkest, and therefore most free from flies amt mosquitoes, I almost Invariably find a musty and sickening air next to the floor, often so bad, indeed, that I am compelled to abandon for the time the qliietrest 1 had vi -11 <■< 1 for Carpets are enough of a nuisance to health without the addition of constantly closed blinds and curtains.— ('or.

Attempt at Self-Starvation.

One of the rarest forms of suicidal mania is puzzling the dwellers in Ward 1, in the case of a youth who is deliberately starving himself to death. He is the son of Mrr Charles Dexter, nnd had been employed in his fa+her’s bakery on Carew street. Until half a year ago he was much like other young men, but since has grown listless and at times morose. About six weeks since he stopped eating; for a day or two little notice was taken of his conduct, but as he persisted in it, his friends became alarmed, and-in every way exerted themselves to tempt his appetite. It was Useless; he said he didn’t want anything to eat; and at last food wits'actually forced into his mouth. His physician was puzzled, for there seemed to' be nothing the matter with him physically. In the hone that exercise woultl restore his appe'titeTiis father purchased a horse and wagon for him, but the youth utterly 'declined to ride. A man was then employed to take care of him, with doctor’s orders to keep him in the open air a part of every day, but the boy would ask to be taken home almost as soon as he left it. Durin|*tliree or four weeks of this treatment young Dexter ate,, comparatively nothing, and now his teeth cannot be forced apart to get food into his mouth. He does not complain of suffering, and, indeed, speaks very little. His physicians perforce agreed that he is very, near dead, but they differ as to the character of this singular malady—one pronouncing it pure contrariness, and another the effect of working in the bakery. At one time he was deemed insane, and arrangements completed for his sending to Northampton, but his mother strenuously objected, aud the removal was given up. Mrs. Dexter,, who is a Spiritualist, asserts that an evil spirit has obtained possession over him and is starving him to death —Springfield (Mase.) Republican. T : A man in Whitehall, N. Y\, kicked another man, and w-as arrested for so doing. When brought ’ before a Justice of the Peace, he informed His Honor that the man he had kicked Was a lightning-rod man. The Justice at once discharged him, with the remark: “The man who wouldn’t kick a lightning-rod man wherever he finds one is unfit to enjoy the liberties for which Washington fought and Thomas Paine wrote.” That Justice had paid five hundred dollars for lightning rods on his house last spring.

A Disea.G with a ThOu.aitd Symptoms. Dyspepsia Is the most perplexing nt till human ailments. Its symptoms are almost infinite In their variety, arid the forlorn and despondent victims of the disease often fancy themselves the prey, In turn, of every knotfn malady. Thia is due, in part, to the close sympathy which evista between the stomach and the brain, and In part, also, to the fftet that any disturbance of the digestive function necessarily disorders the liver, the bowels and the nervous system, and affects, to som?-4'xtent, the quality of the blood.
