HIE 1UU1I THAT SCXG IX MAY.

A bird last spring caine to my window shutter,One lovely morning at the break of day ;

And troru his throat did bweetly rtttor.\ moBt Jin l&didua lay.

He had no language for his joyous passion,No solemn measure, i.o Mtial ic rhj me;

Tet no devoted mii.e.n \ e.<r did fKsiiiunSuch perieet tune aud tiiuo

It seemed of thousand joys a thousand stories,All (fuuhing forth in one tumultuous tide;

A hallelujah tor the morning glovie^That bloomed on every aide.

•*"And with eaeli canticle's voluptuous ending,He sipped a devr-drop iroui the dripping pane ;

Then heftVUJllNird bis Bttie hill exttrliding,liioke lorth his song ugaiui

1 thought to emulate his wild emotion,Auu leanj th, nkfgi\ in; fin in lii.s mneful tongue

Rut human hear; i e <T uilteied such devotion,Nor human lip aiioh song.

At length he flew and lett mi- in my sorrow,Lest i bliouui hear those tender notes no mnro;

And though 1 early waked for him eaeh monow,He ciune not nign Btf doe^.

But once apain, one silent sumntor even,I met him hopping in the new-mown hay ;

But he was mute, ami looked not up to heavefa—The bird that sung in M:ty.

Though now I hoar from dawn to twilight hourThe hoars,; iroodpeeker and the noisy jay.

In vain i seek through leafless grove and towerThe limi th^i Bang in May.

And such, inethinke, are childhood's dawning pleas-ures.

They charm a moment and then fly awj,y:Throngb life We sigh und Seek those missing treas-

ares,The birds that sung in May.

This little lesson, then, my friend, remember,'I Q i ,/,; eaeh bnght-wit^Mi Lesson in its day ;

And never hope to catch in eold Decemlie*-,The I'inl that Bung :n May.

vith an air of 1'ntherly ooiitempt. "Younust be precious weak (if you'll hexcusc' my 8ayin so) ever to hit' fcltoagbt on'tat11. If I'd known as that Was your littleimie, I could ha' told you long ago asow 'twas impossible."

" Master." strikes in the pilot, showingall hia magnificent teeth in a broud, do-risive grin, '• suppose y. u try go Mecca,you no con e back again. Look see ! treemouth ago come here one Austriaooman—clever man—veree good, Arab maketalk ; ho put on c'othes like Arabs man,and go dere. Well, what den ?

Um '" said 1; " that's rather a sell too.iiwt what cun one see here, then ? for itwon't do to get within forty miles of thoProphet's tomb and see nothing after all "

" Hark you, muster," answers Ibmhiin,you say tomb—dat it, just it! [Outside

de town here you go see de tomb of Eve,she dat was wife to Adam, you know—veree line place—all Inglis liow;ulj:s godere. Suppose you make pay ten pias-tre, I go snow you all ting."

What d'ye think of that, captain}1 Ivoto we take Father Abraham's advice." .

Thisrichly-dressed lady in yellow slipperS)veiled so closely as to loavo nothing visi-ble except her brilliant eyes, must be the"incomparable Frltice'Sa Badroulbadout"on lier way to the bath, happily . Uncon-scious of tho prying gaze furtively directed at her by the audacious owner of theWonderful Lamp. Aud yonder, in theirusual disguise of Moussul merchants, go" the good Haroun Alraschid" and hisVizier Giafar.

But after a timo our enjoyment of thissplendid diorama begins to be somewhatmarred by tho obtrusive attentions of the''stinging flies/' nnd tho determined Hos-tility of the dogs; for in this strongholdof Islamism even tho dogs are as goodMohammedans as their masters, and flyat every Oiaour with a heartiness of reli-gious feeling which wouid entitle themto a high place in the Church of Bng-land. What with these annoyances, andwhat with tho heat and dust, \vo are notaltogether sorry when our host, havingpiloted us through all the intricacies ofthe town, turns stfdaohly out of ttic blind-ing glare into a cool, shady court, asthoroughly sheltered from tlie sun as fourstories of good masonry can do it. The•v;i' »?e Lung with maps, charts,'sailingadvertisements, nnd all tho parapherna-lia of a shipping oth'eo; while in the cen-ter appear a sofa, soveral ehaivs, •writing table, beside which stand expect-ant two white-bearded elders (the mostvenerable-looking patriarchs and mostunconscionable rogues in the town), whol come hither in tho fruitless hope of

:;g our host out of a few piastres.As the usual skirmishing begins (necessa-rily sharp between the Jew and Arab) theskipper and I seat ourselves on tho sofa,throw off our coats, and take it easy tillthe trial of fence is over.

Now, gentlemen," cries M. R atlength, jumping up as tho two " graveand reverend seigniors" shufTle out of thocourt, " that's done at last, thank He&v-m ; so come along to tiffin."

I will not tantalize my reader with therecital of the countless native* daintieswhich formed our afternoon meal, spreadn a large, lofty upper room with painted

•walls, from tho deep lancet-like windowsof which wo have a noble view of theharbor. Suffice it to say, that our repastis as agreeablo as good taste and frankhospitality can make it. Our honestskipper, it is true, is at first just a littleshy about entering Madame R 'spresence in his " sea-going rig ;" arid in-deed, both he and I, fresh from roughingit down in Y,tMBen, with our garmentstutterid and travel-stained, our faces

"And dere he lio too," whisperedtho captain, who grins assentingly.

Tho raoollah hints that it is customarj-to deposit an offering here ; but we, mind-ful of our instruction, reserve the right ofpayment, aud puna fa'ii—an. omission atwhich tho reverend gentleman looks con-siderably ohapfallen. From this pointwo havo a view of tlie entire structure,which consists merely of two parallellines of low white wall, about six feetapart, with a stone chapel at either end,and one in tlie middle— the whole affair

I to oustoms of con tufio3 ago flourishing thereat the present day. Eleven and twelvoo'clock are usually the hours for dinnerin all parts of that empire. In Englandthe oourt dinner hour remained At < '•from tlio reign of Edward IV. to that ofHenry VII., but the middlo and lowerclasses dined at nine or ten. The fash-ionable hour in Henry Vlll.'s reigaoameto bo twolve, when Sir Thomas Moorediued) and it remained fixed than (ormany years. It is still the workinginan'stime, and is likely so to remain for cen-

looking very like the model of a railroad ; turies, as it appeal's to be naturo's ownwith disproportionately large stations.The total length of the tomb, as I meas-ured it by paces, is threo hundred andsixty feet. Truly) there were giants intiiMS.' d u y s !

Arrived at the si'cond chapel the mool-lah unlocks a door, revealing JI kind ofbureau, curiously oarved anl embossed,which, being opened, discloses a smallsilver casket. •' Sue," he says impressive-ly, " there is the heart!" I lay my med-jidieh on the casket, in obedience to acabalistic sign from l'alinurus; and thocaptain, remarking m>tto tare, that "it'3 aprecious small heart for a young 'oiuan o'that height," follows my oxample. Thencewe proceed to the third chapel, where theshow ends, and a furiotR dispute begins

time. Fashion may make laws as sh.will, and call mealo by Tariotw names,but at mid-day most persons feel the ne-cessity of taking food.

Wtten the dinner was eaten early in themorning it was not always tho practiceto take a previous meal, KO that) in pointof fact, the old dinner was a kniie-and-forfc breakfast, such as is common now onthe Continent. In Cotton's Amjltr th*author says: "My diet is a glass of aleasl am dressed, and no nu.n) till dinner."Viator answers: " twi l l light ii pipe,for that is Commonly my breakfast t^o."

In 1700 the dinner hour had shifted totwo o'clock; and at that time Addisonlimed during theJast thirty yours of hislife, aud Fope through the wholn of his.

between Palinurus and tho moollah as to I rery great people dined at four us earlythe propriety of further payment. Tlio I a s 1T40, and Pope complains of Lady

burned to the color of chestnut?, and ourbeards five inches long, are rather strangelooking ornaments for any lady's diaw-ing-roum; but tho cordiality of ourcharming hostess speedily removes allembarrassment. Tho table-talk wouldbe a treat for Prof. Max Mutter, carriedon as it is in six languatfl I ai once—Eng-lish, French, German, Italian, Turkish,and Arabic; but we are very merry, uev-ertheless, for Europeans always anialga-

ulily aiuid pn popul il ton,and, thousuudfrom home, even an I o enn af-ford to bo tolerably nft'.ible without whol-ly losing iiis self-respect.

And oh, what a treat it is to be foronce iairly out of the beaten track ofmodern travel I No "new and interest-ing routes," no "monster exeur ions." no

Trifle better than Koomfidah, ain'tit ?" says the skipper approvingly.

We gl:de into tlie harbor, and anchorbetween two of the outermost vessel?,baving slipped dexterously through tho

voice of the captain." Ah-. K . if you're a-goin' to look

at that'ere tomb o' Mother Eve's we'd[Tin'; and here's a darkey all

ready to pilot us."'Tiie "darkey" in rjuestion—a tall,

gaunt, cunning-looking Arab—appearsat the door ; and taking le-vo of our en-tertainers, wo march off toward the east-ern gate. After about ten minutes' silence the ikipper, who had evidently got

skipper and I at length settle tho matterby walking off; whereupon his reverence,seeing that his share in the spoil is at anend, Ibts loose the expectant swarm ofbeggars, who follow us with howls andentreaties almost to the gate of the town.

At the gate, however, we halt, as if bymutual agreement, to take one last lookat tho surrounding panorama. The sunis setting) and the stillness of a greatcalm lies upon earth and son and sky.Far away to the left, the smooth expanseof tho harbor, with its glittering fringe-ofcotal reefs, reflects the glory of the sun-set ; behind, the whito ranipaf ts and tallminarots of the town riso against thecrimson sky; while in front, breakingwith its windings the endless monotonyof tho surrounding desert, the caravanroad melts away in curvo after curve totho purple hills, beyond which lies thespot whither a hundred millior'M • ''daily turn their faces in prayer—the holycity of Mecca.

And so, indeed, we had.

There is no need to ask in what country we are landing. Had we been letfall from tho clouds, like Gulliver or Bed-reddin Hassan, the files of camels that goby witL their long, noiseless stride ; thelean, dark, sinewy figures in cotton waist-cloths that throng tho gateway; thequivering hazo of intense heat whichhovers alonjr the horizon, and the wide,desolate, cruel waste of sand that lies be-low, w&uld all announce Arabia, in lan-guage that no one can mistake. We arepen enchanted ground, and with everyUp into the city tho impression waxestronger and stronger. The low, massiveanip:irt, standing up white and bare inhe blistering sunshine; the tall, dnn-jeon-like, narrow-eyed honses, lookingtoalthily down at us like lurking assas-ins; the dark, narrow streets, from theepth of which we can just see the skyar above us, like a little ribbon of burn-ng light, all are genuinely Oiiontal.And as wo turn a corner, and plunge inio tho labyrinth of the many gated ba-ar, filled with a rich summer gloom ofhaded sunlight, and echoing like n men-

agerio with the howls of conflict betweenmyors and sellers, the illusion is com-

plete.

All tho shadowy people whom wedreamed of by the nursery fire, years ago,8urroui»d us here as living and breathingrealities. There are the portly merchantn his flowing robes, and tlie gaunt, sav-ige-looking beggar, and tho bii re-leggedDorter, waddling beneath his high-piled'oad; the veiled woman in horlong bluemantle, with her little brown "piccanin-ny" hanging at her back like a wallet;the brawny water-carrier, stripped to thewaist, with his black, greasy skin of wa-ter poised on his brawny shoulders ; andthe copper-skinned dervish in his coarsecamel'e-hair cloak, who stalks past us,rolling his eyes and whirling his olenoh-ed fists, like a pugilistic saint of the des-ert. Here sits Aladdin at the door of hisfather's shop, as he may have sat on thememorable evening when the Africanmagiciiin invited him to that expeditionof which we all know the result.

Dinner Time.A well-known proverb tells that the

rich may dine when they like, but thopoor must dmo when they can; and al-though tiis question of.dinner time is amost important ono both to rich andpoor, it has been solved in a very differ-ent way at different times of the world'shistory.

As modern nations becomo more high-ly civilized their hours gradually growlater and later ; but even if various rea-son's could be given to account for thisdeclination, it is, nevertheless, it great ev-il, which no one has been either willingor able to stop. Some few men havechosen to keep primitive hours, but bydoing so they htive been forced to leave

\, and in consequence society hassoon dropped them out of her memory.

The ancients were more natural in theirihiiii wo are: thus, tho Rororin cit-

izen rose with tho lark, and went to bedwhen darkness came on; and it was onlythe rich who could afford to live by can-dl- light. Those idle persons miujngthem who did so were called by Seneca,in contempt.

Fashion now forces her votaries to re-verso tho proper order of things, by din-ing at. night and supping in the morn-ing. Dr. Franklin, when matters werenot so bad as they are now, tried good-humoredly to show the good people ofFrance the advantages to be gained bytho adoption of early hours ; and he cal-culated that in tbe city of Paris alone90.075,000 francs, or nearly four millionpounds, would be saved every year bythe economy of using sunshine instead oicandles from the 20tu of March to the20th. of September. The Emperor of Bra-zil, in his recent visit to London, appearsto have been sadly puzzled by the lateboars. One day He visited Lincoln's Innbetween six and .seven in tho morning,and was surprised not to find any law-y»re there. Another day he started offfrom his hotel before breakfast to KewGardens, and returned for that meal ateight A. M.

Our forefathers had done half a day'swork by the time their descendants thiukof rising, so that candles and gas uniy inone sense be said to have demoralized theworld. Tho House of Commons original-ly met at six or seven o'clock in themorning, but after a time tlie hour ofmeeting WHS delayed to nino. About twoHundred years ago, noon for meeting, andti I'. H for parting, were considered verylate liours by some; and one hundredyears ago, Speaker Ouslow deplored inbitter terms tho laziness of members whoconsidered themselves unable to assemblebefcre two o'clock in the afternoon. Thetime at which British legislators meet isnow at four P. M.

When men dined at an hour that manynow think tho proper timo for getting•op, they were ready for their amusementsmuch earlier than we now take them.Accordingly, the theaters wero openedearly is tlie afternoon in the reign ofElizabeth ; and when Whalley edited thoplays of Ben Johnson, in 17,r>6, tho per-formances commenced at 4 P. M. Anoth-er class of entor'.ainment, which is now

Suffolk's dining at that late hour ; but inl i j l we find the Duchess of Somerset'shour was three. This, however, onlyshows that Blightly different dinner-hourswere prevalent at the same period ; andwe know that when the Duchess of Gor-don a3ked Pitt to dine with her at seven,his excuse was that ho was engaged tosup with tho Bishop of Winchester atthat hour. In 1780 tho poet Cowperspeaks of four astime; and about

the t/iou fashionable1804-t5 nn alteration

took place at Oxford, by which those col-leges which dinod at threo began to dineat four, and those which dined at fourpostponed their time to five. After thebattle of "Waterloo, six o'clock was pro-moted to the honor of being the dinnerhour. Now, we have got on to eight andnine ; tho epigram tells us,

Tli» eontleraan who rtinea tho latest1^ :n our streets esteemed the greatest;But surely greater than them allIs he who never dint.s at all.

"We have seen that, within four hun-dred years,'the dinner hcjOT baa gradually moved through twelve hours of theday—from nine A. M. to niue P. M. Natare, however, will rovongo herself onfasniCfal, and have her own way in. tholong run ; for as the dinner honi bocomosgradually later, it must inevitably returnto the early hours of past centuries, andthe Irishman's description of his friend'shabits will be literally trive oj; us, for we?hall not dine till—to-morrow.

The King and tho Ants.According to Jewish and Mohammedan

tradition, King Solomon, who was wisebeyond all other men, kuew the languageof animals, and could talk with the Iof the field and the birds of the air. AH.ibbinical story is told of him which isin this wise:

" One day tho king rode out of Jerusa-lem with a great retinue. An ant-hilllay directly in his path, and Solomonheard its littln people talking.

" 'Here comes tho great king,' ho heardono of them say. 'Iiis flatterers call himwise, asd just, and merciful, but ho isabout to ride over us, aud crush us with-out heeding our sufferings.'

As all time bpforo dinner isconsidered as morning, however lato themeal may be taken, a notice of changesin its time will be a good teat of earlyand late hours.

England is now, and always has been,later in its habits than France. LouisXI [• dined at half past nino in the mom-ing, but at the same period in Englandtho court hour was oleven ; and whenthat king married the daughter of Hen-ry VII., he gave up his regular habits,and took to English customs, in gallant-ry to his young bride. In consequence.historians toll us that ho fell a victim tolate hours, aud died soon after his mar-riage.

Louis XIV. dinod at twelve; -while hiscontemporaries, Cromwoll and Charles1 [., were dining at one. An old monastic,triplet gives the dinner hour as early asit could well bo fixed:

Lover a cinq, diner a nenf,Soupor ;i oinq, rmieher a nenf,Fait vivre d'aus nomiuto et mmf,

Session after session, as years rolled on,Lord Coke was tho unanimous choico forthe Speaker's chair. Iiis pi ofuund knowl-tsuguof parliamentary law; his imperturb-able gravity i nd singular command of 1 i ifeatu/es under all circumstances; hisrea Ij i ict to repress and rebuko presump-tion and disorder by quaint sarcasm, andto sustain his position with ease and dig-nity, qualified him pre-eminently for thisplace. He was indeed mirivalcd.

On ono occasion, an Irishman got thefloor and cried violently, in an unbeoom-ing tone, " Air. Spaker," and waited forthe usual recognition from the chair.

Lord Coke quietly raised hia spectacles,and, looking at the occupant of the floor,announced with great solemnity, "Thegentleman from the Emerald Isle."

This brought down the house, and sorsbuked his disorderly manner that thewould-bo debater sank to his seat.

KALAMAZ&O, June 10,1872.Hon. Wiu. A. Moore :•

MY DEAR SIU—I am in receipt of yourletter of the 6th inst., requesting a state-ment of ray views in regard to tho politi-cal situation of the country.

It affords me pleasure to comply, thoughI' am compelled by infirm health' to do BUus briefly as practicable.

From tho inception of tho Cincinnatimovement I have regarded it favorably.The high character and groat ability oftho gentlemen engaged in it, were a suffi-cient guarantee that they would honestlyendeavor to present a platform uponirhich all could agree who earnestly do-sire to rescue tho country from the dan-gers which threaten its destruction.

This it seems to- be geaertflly coucododthoy have done.

But some men, and especially someDemocrats, object touniting in this move-ment because they do not like Mr. Gree-ley. and they insist that tho BaltimoreConvention should nominato a straightDemocratic ticket.

Such a course would, in my opinion, beunwise in the extverae, because the exper-ience of the last> tea years must satisfyevery candid mail that tho result wouldprove disastrous.

3 am therefore in favor of indorsing atBaltimore the Cincinnati platform andcandidates in the most emphatic manner,and to that end I would recommend themost prompt and vigilant action Letthe delegates from iwery State and dis-trict be fully advised of the sentiments ofthose they are sent to represent in thatConvention, and let them be composed ofmen who will faithfully execute thetrust.

Tho idea tfkseping still and waitingfor the action of the Baltimore Conven-tion seuirij to mo not only unwise, but atwar with first principles. It assumes thedelegates to that Convention will be menof inspired wisdom ; that they will knowwhat those who soud them cannot possibly know ; and therefore will be able toadopt a plan of action much better thanthe millions of Democrats at homo couldever find out.

But, sir, the reverse of this is the truth.Those delegates will go there to repre-sent and carry out the opinions of those•Who send them. And how are they tolearn tliuse opinions unless every Demo-crat makes his views known ?'

But again, sir, you'have had experienceenough in national conventions to knowthat anything like careful deliberation insuoh a body is practically impossibleSeven to eight hundred men brought sud-denly together from all parts of the Un-ion is a mass meeting of itself; and whenassembled in a room, as is usual, withseveral thousand spectators, careful de-liberation is out of the question.

Hence, I repeat thaty they shonbd actonly as representatives and faithfullyoarry out the wishes of those who1 sendthem.

Lot me now inquire, is there any soundreason growing out of tho DemocraticCreed why the party should hesitate toadopt the Cincinnati platform and can-didates r1 The foundation stone of tluircreed is "principles—not men," and nonedeny tfee soundness of tho Cincinnatideclaration of principles.

Again, if tried by tho Jeffersonian'standard, is there any valid objection tothe candidates? Are they not "honest,capable, and faithful to the Constitu-tion {"'

No candid man will dony that theyare. Why then, sir, should you or I orany other Democrat refuse OUT cordialand energetic support of these men, whenthe object wo are all struggling to ac-oomplish is nothing else than to rescueour beloved country from certain destruc-tion,' by taking it out of the control ofthe m^st corrupt men who have everwielded its authority V If an invadingarmy were already landed upon ourshores, could any citizen preserve hisoharaoter as a patriot if he refused to aidin repelling it because he was not pleas-ed with the commanding general ?

I regard the country as being in great-er peril now at the hattdf of those in pow-er than it would be in case of such an in-vasion. And I am therefore ready tounite my efforts with those of every oth-er man, without reference to former opin-ions or affiliations, who is honestly andearnestly in favor of rescuing it from thabands of those who constantly violate itsConstituiion with impunity, and plunderits Treasury at wilt* It is only in thisway that the rights of tho States and theliberties of the people can be renderedsafe and perpetual.

Tf> be successful we must carry thelarger StUtes ; for if we secure only a baremajority of the electoral votes, and thisl>y including gome of the Southern States,'he men now in power will not hesitateto legislate us out of it by such action asthey took in regard to Georgia four yearsngo. That was the most dangerous1 of ailthe violations of the Constitution" theybave evorperpetrated.

Congress has no more authority to de-clare that the vote of a State shall not becounted than it; has to enact a law thatthe people of a State shall not vote.

By uniting cordially with the Cincin-nati movement wo cun carry all the larger Status and most of the smaller ones.We can thus secur-e control of the execu-tive department and a largo majority inthe House of Representatives. Then willevery patriot " breathe deeper and freer;"because he will have seen the salvationof his country.

And if in surveying the field of viotoryit shall be found that the Democraticparty furnished throe-fourths of tho votethat gained it-, will thoie then be foundany Democrat who will wish it had beena vote less '<

Kespect lor Law.from the Boston Globe.

Higher-law policy is a very dangerousone, especially under a Republican Gov-ernment. It is Simply taking the law in-to one's own hands; in other words, indi-vidual rebellion ; and when practiced bynumbers, revolution. This dootrine cannot be countenanced in civil affairs inany cnao; however incrrtcrrous, withoutleading to the most dangerous conseq lences ; for, if adopted for one purpose,iuough ii good one, and by one set of peo-ple, hov.-evor upright their intentions,that adoption becomes an example, anencouragement and a justification to badmen to pursue a similar course for thevery worst purposes. The highwa^'unmwho robs for gain, or the incendiary whokindles a tire for reienge, may justify hisconduct in disregarding t:ie law of theland, as well as another who overridesWw for a iess flagrant purpose. Two in-ttftnees-r t'1 hi;jii«r-law doctrine put inprrtctice'ur^-now before the country, bytwo very dittVreu-t b'jdies, in places farupiirt, and for utterly dissimilar objects.In oiKj ease it is the United States Sen-ntc: ut Washington, to eufotoe a-measureof party power, and in the other, theworkingni'-n, at Now York, to compelobedience to their decrees.

On. Friday night last the majority of•.h<- SenaU1, by mere force of numbers andpower of eaduranoe, violated a rule ofthat body based on common sense andjustiop, and whioh was unto them a law,end by tfaat-meani engrafted a disputedmeasure of party legislation upon a regu-lar appropriation bill. Tin: standingrulefr of tha Senate provide that nomi' ndii -".\\ of an appropriation bill shallbe received making legislative provisioncither thin such asdirectly re kites to anappropriation contained in tho bill. Eft.d fiance of-this rule, a bill which had pre-viously passed tho Senate and been lostin the House, called the supplemental en-forcement act, was attached to tho miscellancous appropriation bill as an amend-ment, fi>r the purpose of- eompolliug theHouse to adopt the obnoxious act, underpenalty ot losing tho bill.

Having thus substitute'.! the higherlaw of individual will lor tho parliamen-tary law, the majority of the Senate pass-ed the bill us thus illegally amended, andBent it to the House. The latter body re-fused, to nccopt the hybrid document, nnd

dootnod it to lay upon the Speaker's desk.The obnoxious measure had for its pnr-poso the placing of every voting precinctthroughout the Union under the surveil-lance of military power, and was advoca-ted and opposed on partisan grounds,But, irrespective of its merits, tho actionof tho Sonata majority in breaking downthe barriers of parliamentary law is ofevil example, and calls for tho severestcondemnation. If the standing lnw of alegislative body can be disregarded i"this instance, it may in any other, andmob law may prevail in tho Senate.Groat enoouragcnienf is also given tozealous and ill-informed people to over-rido all law when they thus seo the law-makers themselves setting at naught thologal restrictions by which they are pre-vented from carrying out their individu-al will.

A Nor Political MoTemenfcTho following circular has been sent to

about two hundred prominent gentlemenwho favored tho original Cincinnatimovement:

The New York Evening Post of tho 13thof June says:

" Tho function of a newspaper is not tonominate candidates for olfioc, but inore-ly to direct public opinion, so that it maybe able to satisfy its own demands. Mr.Adams lms been repeatedly named in thecobimns of the Evening Post as a worthycandidate for the highest honor. It maynot be inappropriate to say that the ob-ject which so many of our friends aroseeking in this canvass—the nomination ofan independent, upright and liberal statesmanfor President—is already on the way to ac-complishment"

CINCINNATI, Juno 17.—Ex-SecretaryCox left to-night for New York to attendtho meeting at the Fifth Avenue Hotelon the 20th. In conversation prior to hisdeparture he said in substance that thoSffcin\va3r Hall meeting intended to call asubsequent conference of Liberals of theSdtme class as those engaged in that meet-ing, but it was found that some of thosewlib were supporting Greeley gave en-couragement to the idea of their favoringa movement to put such a man ;is Adai::sin the. iiejd, and on their suggestion thoterms of tho invitation were extended soas to include nun in the position of Hor-ace White, Schurz and Bowles, andSchurz was willing to unite in the callwhen this was done. It was understoodthat the majority of the meeting will beof those who have refused to support Mr.Greeley, but enough of the other phasesof purpose will be there for full confer-once and a comparison of all sorts ofviews. Tho gentlemen above are in noway committed to change their attitudeunless convinced of the duty of doing soby the conference.

The Itnsh to Europe.We have already alluded to the fact

that American pleasure-seekers will spendthe present summer, to a largo extent, atfashionable European resorts. There arenow twelve steamers per week leavingNew York City, and their cabin accom-modations are booked up to near thoclose of August. Each steamer carriesabout one hundred and fifty cabin pus-Bengerg, making a weekly exodus of ubout1.800 pleasure seekers from New Yorkcity alone. This number pur week willamount to 30,000 in tho seventeen weeksof rush. Supposing that each person willspend $1,000 abroad, which is a low esti-mate, we have an aggregate expenditurein Europe by these pleasure soekuis of§30,000,000. When we reflect that Bos-ton, Philadelphia, Baltimore and otherpoints are contributing largely to thenumber of European tourists, it s safe toestimate tho amount which Americanswill .spend in Europe, during the presentseason, at $50,0u0,000.

This is a large sum to be contributedtowards keeping up European suminurresorts. Tue question naturally asltrd is,why.so many Americans prefer Europeanto Amerioau retreats. Many answersmay be truthfully given to tho inquiry.In tho first place, our most fashionableresorts are too expensive, and destitute ofthe accommodations which insure com-fort. Tney are too much infested byiho tdy aristocracy, and afford too manyfacilities fur the formation of habits ofvice to make thmn attractive to personshaving sons or daugliters to introduce in-to society. There are, of course, manyother reasons why so many of our peopleare boekiug pleasure in Europe instead ofAmerica, but we have named the princi-pal causes which induce the majority toshun American watering places. Thoseinterested in the patronage bestowed up-on our summer Tcsorts will do well to re-flect upon this, and they cannot too soonengage in efforts to improve the moraltone of the atmosphere surroundingthem ; nor can thoy bo too particular inproviding home-like accommodations fortheir guests at rates which shall not havethe effect to send prudent people else-where. By this course a very decidedcheck may be given to the tide now flow-ing towards Europe, and the bulk of the$50,000,000 now annually expended inEurope by pleasure seekers may be keptat home.—Toledo Commercuil.

Ann Arbor, Jnne 13, 1872.

WANTED — AN OPIHIO*1.— The mostthoroughly non-committal newspaper ofthe Stato is the Argut, of Ann Arbur. Wohuve an idea, from the drift of its Feleo-tdons, however, that it leans toward theendorsement of Mr. Greoley. Bro Pond,let out the AfffUS a little, so that outsid-ers may understand tho feeling in. yourvicinity.—Jackson Patriot.

" Wo rise to explain." Personally, weare not an admirer of HORACE GREELEY,

do not hanker for the privilege ofvoting for him, and shall needs wear outseveral lead pencils before we shall beable to write a first-class editorial advo-cating his claims to the Presidency : andthat will not. be before tho Baltimore Con-vention. If that convention shall decidethat the Democracy can not " play italone " aud win, and that it is GuiiELEYor GRAXT, we shall support GREELEY,

not because wo expect to admire himmore then than now, but bocauso we arefor breaking up the infernally corruptrings, political arid military, now run-ning the " national masheen." \ \ e hope,perhaps against hope, that the BaltimoreConvention may contrive some other wayout of the woods, but until it speaks we,personally, adopt the " passive policy."

As to '-the feeling in your (our) vicini-ty," that's another question.

1. A few Democrats hereabouts, con-vinced that Democracy is another '-lostcauso," and that tho people will not againelevate it to power, aro enthusiasticallyin favor of " letting tlie dead bury theirdead." These go for GREELEY, believingthat his nomination at Baltimore is theroad t j victory over GRANT-ism, central-ization aud corruption.

2. A larger number, like ourself, willgo for defeating GRANT with GREELEY,

if the Baltimore Convention can arrangetho Democratic party under no otherleador, and while they vote for GREELEYas a duty and not from choice, will shuttheir eyes to bis past career, and trust toProvidence to both "rough hew and shapehis ends"—perhaps this is not a literalquotation—in the interests of tho coun-try Patriotism—not partisanship, noreven a laudable party feeling—will inducethis class of Democrats to accept GUEE-LEY—under protest.

3. A still larger portion of the De-mocracy of Wiishtetiaw 0<runty, we maysafely say a large majority, protest dailyagaiust tho nomination of GREELEY atBaltimore, and pray fervently that theDemocratic National Council may boguided some other way. Many of thesowill, doubtless, bury their opposition orprejudices, or whatever one may chooseto term their governing motives, if GltEE-LEY be nominated ; but many of themhavo registered a pledge that they willnot vote for GREELEY even if nominated atBaltimore, and this pledge we have fearsthat they will keep, or at least that thenumber keeping it will exceed as five toone the number of GKEELEY Republi-cans. If this county is a type of theState, and the Stato of other States, thePatriot can possibly discern wisdom inadvocating tho nomination of GREELEY :we can not. Therefore, we have beenpassive,—call it "non-committil," if thePatriot chooses,—trusting that timo maybring a solution to the vexod question.Is the Patriot enlightened'(

— In this connection it is proper to saythat we recognize no honorable obligation on the part of the Democracy to ac-cept GREELEY and BROWN. The aid few

or many Democratic journalists gave theCincinnati Conventiou, from its inceptionto its terrible if not fatal faux pas, didnot commit the party to the support ofits candidates, and the Baltimore Con-vention must have something better than'obligation" to assign for such action.Dire necessity, with probable success un-der GREELEY and defeat with any othercandidate, are the only roasons whichshould determine that convention toshelve the tried and truo Democrats un-dor whom tho party would delight to ral-ly for a candidate of both the personaland political unfitness of HORACE GltEELEY.

We ha ve said this much in rosponse to th ecall' upon us, and with a realizing sense

of our duty to ourself, tha Democracy,nnd the country. To conclude : with usas with the mass of tho Democracy ofWashtenaw county, it is GKOESBECK,H E X D R I C K S , TUUKMAX, HANCOCK, Or

RANDOLPH, if we can; GREELEY if we

must: and GREELEY before GRANT every

trine. ClIAELES FllANCIS ADAMS was the

man* for the crisis, but the Cincinnati Con-vention overslaughed him, and nowGROESBECK and JOHN QUINCY ADAMS is

tho best comtioatiou—in our humbleopinion.

DEMOCRATS remember the "\?ard Cau-cuses next Wednesday evening. Th»caucus is tin important mooting thisyear.

We also again urge a full representa-tion of evory town in tho County Con-vention to be held n«xt Friday.

Along the T., A. ki mid N. It.MB. EDITOR:—On the invitation of

Mr. L. D. BUKCH, th'e energetic and gen-

tlemanly ngent of the Toledo, Ann Arborand Northern liailrond Company, JudgeLAWKKNCK, GEO. FJ KOBISON' and myself

took a rido over ihe line of the roadTuesday and Wednesday of this week.Wo found the road much further ad-vanced than we expected. Ten differentgangs of men are at work on the roadbetween Pittefield'and a point 2 1-2 milesthis side of the State lino. About 20miles of tho roadbed are completed andready for the iron, except a few smallculverts, the timber for which is prepared,paid fur and delivered at tho requiredpoints. About o miles, between Dundeeand the State line, and 1 1-2 miles be-tweeo Dundoo and Militn remain to begraded. Over these and several breaksin tho grade between Milan and AnnArbor the right of way has not been se-cured.

The heaviest work on the line is inthe township of York, on the farm ofRANSOM SAULSBITRY—u heavy cut and

mil about half done ; hard, rocky andunexpected material has been found inthis cut, and work has been stopped forthe want of necessary tools, whioh havebeen ordered from New York and aronow on tho way. There aro about 200,-000 yards of cutting and filling on theline, and of this amount about two-thirdsof tho wholo number of yards have beenromoved. There are but three eonsider-ablo bridges on tho route; two of these,over tho Saline and Macon, aro done, andthe timber for tho third, over the Rusin,is nearly all on the ground. About 50,000ties have been accepted, paid for, and de-livered along the line, and a large amountof wood also*

We think that tho directors, consider-ing the moans at their disposal and thedifficulties to bo overcome, havo doae re -markably well. Mr. BURCH deservesmuch credit for bia success in workingup tho aid, and for his tact in managingthe affairs of the road under tho direct-ors. The contractors, Messrs. CUANE &THOMSON, aro onergotic and experiencedrailroad men, who thoroughly under-stand their business. They say that if thosubscribers will promptly pay their as-sessments, and the directors provide thornthe right of way, they will preparo thoroadbed complete, ready for tho iron, in40 days. And they will do it.

Tha country between Dundee and theState line is Hat and poor. It is thinlypeopled, except in the township ot Bed'ford, and must remain so for many years.Tne countrv between Dundee and AnnArbor is rich and healthy, well settledand beautiful, and must furnish at oncea largo and rapidly increasing businessfor the road.

On our way down we called at tho of-fice of Esquire Bc.\C£, where Judge LAW-RENCE appeared for the railroad compa-ny in several suits brought to collect as-sessments due on subscriptions'to stock.The defendants appeared by a Mr. WAT-LINO, of Dundee, who must be one of themost remarkable lawyerson tho continent.Ho moved to " sqush " the proceedingson tho grounds, first, that the justioois astockholder in tbe road (not so) ; and sec-ond, that the suit should have beenbrought—not in the name of tho company—but in the name of the directorsthereof. After a few clear and conclus-ive sentences from Judge L., the justiceactually overruled the objections, ono ofwhich was based on a well-known false-hood, and tho other contrary to the spir-it and tho express letter of tho law. Thecases were continued to tho 9th of July,so that :he court of Esquire BUNCE andthe Supreme Court will bo in se siou atthe same time. Bu.N'CE is an old man ofcommanding presence, h;is a noblo head,and so far as outward appearances go, hemight exchange place3 with either judgeof the Supreme Court without any dis-grace to the Stiito.

At Dundee Judge LAWREXCE accident-ally met an old sweetheart or fnend of45 years ajro. Forty five years, we maybolieve, huve made a groat change in theformer beautiful belle of one of the col-lege towns of Vermont. Since then shehas endured all the privations and hard-ships experienced by tho first settlers ofMichigan, and sent four stalwart sons tothe army, one of whom, now residing atDundee, rejoices with a bullet in his headand a pension of $300 a year.

We are under many obligations toMessrs. BURCH and THOMSON for makingour trip instructing and delightful, not-withstanding wo found the thermometerin Milan, York and Pittalield, from !>.} to100 degroos- iu tho shade. Upon Mr.THOMSON, especially, as ho will appreci-ate it best, 1 pronounce my blessing.

Condition of tho Cotton Crop.The following is a synopsis of the state-

ment of tho area and condition of thepresent cotton crop, which will appearin the June report of tho Department ofAgriculture : An increase iu cotton aroais reported in every Stato and a. smallproportion of the county returns shows adecrease of average. Planting wus gen-erally retarded by the protracted seasonof drought, and the fields that were plant-ed late occasioned sumo trouble iu obtain-ing perfect stands, but tho recent rainsand renewed efforts in replanting havefinally secured stands of average com-pleteness. The percentage of of increasoin area, last year's crop being tho basis ofcomparison, is as follows: North Carolina, 16 per cent.; South Carolina, 9; Geor-gia, 12; Florida, 10; Alabama, 11 ; Texas,18; Arkansas, 16; Tennessee, 12. Thoaverage incroaso throughout tho cottonStates will approximate 13 percent. Tex-as has naturally made the largest rela-tive increase, not only having onjoyod afavorable season for planting, but alsoduring the past year having received ac-oessidna of immigrants who aro cottonplanters. The condition of the plantthroughout the cotton section is verynearly a full average. Separating ihjAtlantic from the more Western State?,the former stand a little letter average,whilo the latter are ful.y up to theStandard of fair condition. Tho drought

which prevailed in Ap.il and tho firsthalf of May delayed tho growth, and ihocold nights in the more northern beltshad a farther retarding effect, but theabundant rain smd genial temperaturewhich followed have wonderfully invig-orated and advanced tho crops. The fol-lowing figures show tho present condi-tion of the cotton in the several States,100 standing for the average : North Car-olina, 0(J; South Carolina,' 92; Georgia,96; Florida, 96; Alabama, 105; Missis-sippi, 100; Louisiana, 104; Texas, 100;Arkansas, 9* ; Tennessee, 101.

Desperate Assault on ii Sheriffs Posse.From the Adrian Time*.

Saturday night a saw mill, located nearwhat is called Locust Corners, in thethe town of Pittsford, Hillsdale county,just on the coui.'tv line, wan burned uu-der circumstances that made it-si.em thatthe burhtttg was the work of an incendi-ary. Suspicion f.'il . 6n a nian by theutuue of Brittau, ana Sunday morning a\v irrant for his arrest was placed in thehands of an officer. During the morningthe officer, accompanied by three or tourmen, went to to the house of Britain'sfather, in the town of Pittsford. YoiingBrittan was in the front yard, aud ul-toweq the officer and his'posse to ap-proach near to him. When within a fewfeet of him the olHoer speaking to him,s;iid : "Brittan I havo a warrant foryou." Without saying a word, Brittandrew a revolver, and pointing it at a mannamed Benson, fired, without other etl>i:tthan to blacken an ear of his intendedvictim. Benson at onoe wheeled amiran, Brittan following and firing at him.Seeing that Brittan wus gaining on him,Benson wheeled about and caught his as-sailant by the throat and whiskers. Brit-tan then fired his sixth and last shot,which took effect in Benson's throat,passing through from side to side, butfortunately cutting no artery or inflictingII wounil necessarily fatal. It is s lid thatBrittau then turned and walked to thehouse. His father handed him a satchelof clothing und told him to leave, which hedid The constable and his pOBAe SCWUto havo been stupefied by the suddennessand boldness of the assault, and permitedBrittan to get away without resi>!On picking Benson up it was found thathe had received a shot through one arm,iviiiitlier through the shoulder, and an-other through the neck, as stated above.He was living this morning, and the phy-sicians apprehend no serious result in his

(J.ise.

The news of the murderous assault flewover the country in a few hours and intoth? village or Hudson. Every manarraad himself as best heootld and turnedout, and in a short time every road \v;isguarded and sentinels were posted aboutevery wood and possible hiding nluoe. Abloodhound was set on the truck of th«would-be murderer, and about sundownthe dog brought him to a stand in awheat field. The pursuers clo.-e 1 upabout Brittan, and with their rifles le.v-eled at him ordered him to throw downhis weapons nnd surrender, which ho didriieie was a strong desire evinced to1. nch him on the spot, but better counselprevailed und the officers took him andnis father to ihe county jak at Hillbdale.

It deems t.lvit young Brittan l.as hadtrouble with his wife, und the sympathyof the community was very decidedly infavor of tbe wife, fie hud gut maddenedat the people, and it is supposed had de-termined to burn the property cf thoseagainst whom he held hatred. Theburning of the mill on Saturday ni^htwas his iirst step, wili.h people thinkwould have been followed by (then of asimilar nature had not the affair of Sun-day occurred. The fact of hi., pickingout Benson, and trying BO hard to Uillhim is explained on the ground that thelatter had incurred his anger by takingM<les against him in his quarrel with hisfamily, Brittan's wife left him sometime since and succeeded in getting con-trol of the children. There is no sympa-thy with Brittan in the community wherehis assauli was made. The only feelin'frexpressed is regret that his captors didnot kill instead of capture him.

The Wool Market.A recent Boston Circular says :Tho new tariff reducing tho duty 10

er cent on foreign wool goes into opera-on on tho 1st of August. Besides the

eduction of lOper cent, tuodiscriminatinguty of 10 per cent, on all WOJI not im-orted direct from places of growth b i sIso besn removed, to go into operation on

1st of October next. The general re-uction of 10 per cent, with the lemov-

of the discriminating duty, will makea difference of 3c per lb. currency, on tillcolonial wool itupcrted from Great Btit-aia, taking as a basis the present currentprices in the market. This will, ™n doubt,h i v e an itnpor.ant bearing on the priceOi wool, and may load to large pu< chasesof coloninl wool at tho balos to como oil'in June and July.

The principal cause of the recent de-pression in wool has been the unusually

! lar^e import of foreign. Sinco the 1stof Jan lary there hiis b.'en received atN - w York and Boston some G0,000,00ilbs of foreign wool, and, with the arri-vals expected befoie the closo of themonth, our imports of foreign wool durTin ; the first six iLonths of 1S72 are likely.to be equal to our entire import of tLeyear 1871.

Tho interior markets, as per latest ad-vices-, tire dull and depressed. Tho prin-cipal operators appear to be unusuallyindifferent, and, and the new clip willmove slowly, as it is still held at pricesajov the current rates on the seaboard.

No. 9 South Main Street, Ann Arbor.

By Their Fruits.At & horticultural show, there is a ta-

ble running through a. long hall for theexhibition fruit; and this is divided upinto about twonty-five compartments,which aro assigned to as many exhibit-ors for the display of their productions.I go along the table and discuss the mer-its of the various articles.

Here is a trran \Vho has pears, and ap-pleB, and peaches, and cherries, and plumsThey are not very good; they aro fair;they are about as good as the average ofthe fruit on the table, but they do notbeat anybody else's. I see fruit Hint isjust as good all tho way down the table.But the man to whom it belongs says:" Mine ought to take the premium.""Why?" I asked. "Because it was rais-ed on ground whose title goes back tothe I?lood. No man has a right to claimthe premium unless he can show that thetitle of his land goes clear down to theFlood. I can prove that my title is clear,and I insist upon it that I ought to havethe premium. That other fruit mayhave, some ground for pretense, but it ic<uncoveniiHted."

I go to the next compartment, and Isay to tho man there : ' Your fruit looksfair. It is about OH an average with theTest."—'-On an average with the rest?There is nothing like it on the table."" Why so ? "—" Because it was raised un-der glas.?. Those other fellows raisedtheirs in the open air. This is churchfruit. It was all raised in definite inclos-ures, according to prescriptions whichhave oome down from generation to •gen-eration. In judging of my fruit, yourbust take into consideration that it wasaccording to ordinances. It is patternfruit." He insists that his fruit is betterthan any of the rest on account of the•way in which ho raised it.

I go to the next compartment. Therer see some magnificent fruit, and I say tothe man ; " Where did you raise thisfruit?" He says: "I t came from theKigbway near my house."—" From thehighway 't "—•' Yes. It grew on a wild-ing that I found growing there. I clear-ed away the brush that was chocking it,»nd ix'mmed it a littlo, and it producedthis fruit."—"WeiV I say, «I think th:i$is the best fruit on tho table:"

From the whole length of tho table, onboth sides, there arises the exclamation :" What! are you going to give that manth« premium who has no title for his land,no green-house, and nothing but the high-way to raise his fruit on 'i What sort ofencouragement is that to regular fruit-growers '{"

13ie whofe commofion is stopped bythe man who has the awarding of thepremium saying : " The order* of this showis, by their fruits shall y% know them."And in determining wiiiaS* of these monshall have the premium, he does judge bytheir fruit.

When the Lord comes to give his de-cision in the great pomolcgical fair ofthe future, I think he will judge in thesame way, and sa5': By their fruits yeshall know them."—//. W. Bcech-er

Whon to Cut Wheat.The usual practice among "armers i

to'Iet'wheatstand, bofoie it is cut, untilthe straw is entirely changed in colorfrom green to yellow, and the grain hasbecome hard and nearly or quite dry.Numerous experiments have been madoin this country, but moro particularly inBngiand, to determine at what' period ofripeness it is best to cut wheat, havingin view the greatest yield of grain andthe best quality. It is well known tothose who have investigated the subject,•fibat the rwenitig of the seed- consists en-tirely of c&mical processes, which wecannot here attempt to explain, that aroof importance to bo considered in orderto make the most of the crop after ithas boon grown. The immature grain ofwhoat, in its early stage, is found to beSled with a milky fluid, which gradual-ly changes in consistence from this milkystate to one more firm and solid. Thirseexperiments have been instituted to de-termine with acuracy at what period ofthis change the grain should be harvestedto securo the greatest advantages. Thf>unanimous opinion appears to be, that ifgrain is cut soon after tho straw has turn-ed yellow below tho head, while the low-er part of the stem is still green and theseed yet remains in a soft and doughystate, ths grain will weigh moro to thebushel and yield a greater amount froma given spuoe of ground ; that more andbetter flour is made tiv>m, and where thestraw is to bo fed to stock, it is relishedbetter and is more nutritious than if thegrain was allowed to stand until it be-came fully ripe.

These experiments have been so fre-quently made and with such uniform re-sults, that we feel unwilling to let thocoming harvest pass without again re-minding our readers of the fact. A verycareful series of experiments of this charac-ter were made some years ago in York-shire, England., by -Mr. John Hannam,and he sums up the loss by shelling, andin the weight and quality of the grainthrough letting it stand until fully ripe—as equal to $6 per acre—a sum, or evenhalf of it, not to be lost sight of by thefarmer.—Michigan Farmer.

CATS AS FIU'IT GUARDS.—Here is agood notion about eat* and fruits thatmay prove quite suggestive, which comesfitom an English journal: "It often ap-pears to mo that people for the most partare not aware, of the groat use cats aro tous. Of course, we know of the use withrespect to mice and rats, but do we gen-erally know of the invaluable help theycan give us in protecting from birds ourgarden fruits and flowers 't The late heavyrains this spring lias given us the prom-ise of abundance of strawberries, and intb4}-Soutb, ntleittst, the-blooming is mag-nificent. To keep off the birds how sim-ple, how certain, how small is the cost ofa cat on a small chain sliding on a wire,end giving the animal the walk up anddown the whole length of the strawberryjeds. A knot at each end of the wirereadily- >irevcnis the cat fvom twistinground the post which 6!ippovts the wire,i»tl a small keraicl plased in the middleof the walk affords hoi shelter and a homefor her kittens. In largo gardens a sec-ond cat is required, and tho young onesin their frequent visits to each othergreatly assist in scaring away the birds.1 ha vo ior iDora • Aaa- thirty years used,and seen used with perfect success, thiseasy method of protecting fruit, (ind thovery same plan is equally good in keeping bans and rabbits off ilower beds. Af-ter tho first few days cats in no way dis-like this pirtial restraint, and when setquite tree, after a few weeks' watching,•."say will of their ova accord continuean guard. Tho kittens, more especially,attach thouis-elvi'S to this garden occupa-tion, and of their own accord become thegardener's best allies."

French Registration of Lands.France has the largest number of land-

ed proprietors in the world, the most min-\rte •subdivision of land, and at the sametime the best existing system of registra-tion; The gpodflUOal chart, or Cadastre,M it is called in i'rance, and its accom-panying-register, saows not only the pieceof laud belonging to each person, buteach kind of laud separately, and oneholder may of course have parcels of ara-ble, meadow, vine, osier ground, etc., oneach, of which he pays a different rate ofland tax. In addition to this, everychange in proprietorship, and every al-ternation a£ boundary between differentparcolR of land, and every conversion of apiece of land, lias to be entered in a supptomentai y register, with reference to theoriginal and to the chart. This registercontains not only the naaius, uddresses,etc., of the proprietors of eachparcel of land, but tho exact measure-ment—no error larger than two metres ina thousand being permitted—of each of:'.% sides, with its modo of cultivation orujrpJioation. It is estimated that the costof u aery chart and register would be

about nine millions sterling : the originalCadastre took nearly forty- years to com-plete, and tho smallest time that wouldsuffice for the work, with the number ofsurveyors at present available, is said tobo between twenty and thirty years.

Care of Horses.The London Born Hoot says: All

hoses must not be fed in the same pro-portion, without regard to their ago?,their constitution, and their work ; be-cause the impropriety of such a practiceisself-evident,yetit•isconstiintly done, andis the basis of disoas.' of every kind.

Never use bad hay on account of itscheapness, because there is no proper nour-ishment in it.

Damaged corn is exceedingly injurious,because it brings on inflammation of thebownls and skin diseases.

Chaff is better for old hordes than hay,because they can chew and digest it bet-ter.

Mix chaff with corn or beans, and donot give the latter alone, because it makesthe horse chew his food moro and digestit better.

Hay or grass alone will not support ahorse under hard work, because there isnot sufficient nutritive body in either.

When a horse is worked hard its foodshould chiefly be oats; if not workedhard its food should chiefly be hay ; be-cause oats supply moro nourishment andflesh-making material than any otherkind of food; bay not so much.

Bsek feed is wasteful. The better planis to feed with chopped hay, from a man-ger, because the food is not then thrownout, and is more easily chewed and di-gested.

Sprinkle the hay with water that hassalt dissolved in it, because it is pleasingto the animal's taste, and moro easily di-gested. A teaspoonful of salt in a buck-et of water is sufficient.

Oats should be bruised for an old horse,but not for a young one, because tho for-mer, through age and defective teeth,cannot chew them properly : the younghorse can do so, and they tire thus prop-erly mixed with the silivu, and turnedinto wholesome nutriment.

How Summer Xuits should be Washed.Summer suits fire nearly all made of

white or buff linen, pique, cumbric, ormuslin, and the art of preserving the newappearance after washing is a matter ofthe gi'en-fesf inipVffdflce. Common wash-erwomen spoil everything with soda, andnothing is more frequent than to see thodelicato tints of lawns and percales turned into dark blotches and muddy streaksby the ignorance and vandalism of .alaundress. It is worth while for ladies topay attention to this, and insist uponhaving thoir summer drosses washed ac-cording to tho directions which theyshould be prepared to give their laun-

•s themselves. In tho first place, thewater should be tepid, the soap shouldnot bo allowed to touch tho fabric; itshould be washed and rinsed quick, turn-ed upon the wrong sid:-, and hung in theshade to dry, and when starched (in thinboiled but not boiling starch) should bnfolded in sheets or towels, and ironed up-on the wrong side as soon as possible.But linen should be washed in water inwhich hay or a quart bag of bran hasbeen boiled. This last will be found toanswer for starch as well, and is excellentfor print dresses of all kinds, but a haiid-ful of salt is very useful also to sot thecolors ' of light cambrics and dottedlawns: and a little ox gall will not onlyset but brighten yellow anil purple tints,and has a good effect upon groon.—Scien-tific American.

Vapor Fuel.Experiments aro beidg made at tho De-

lamater Iron Works with Ainlbor's " Va-por Fuel" machiue, which is intended tosupersede coitl furnaces for manufactur-ing purposes. This invention, about tnoownership of which there has been forsome time a bitter contest, which has ro-eontly been twice decided by th» PatentOffice in favor of Ambler, consists of amachine containing an internal oil cham-ber surrounded by a steam-jacket to vaporizo hydrocarbon gas, and a steam-spacebelow and above the oil-chamber to as -Sist in maintaining tho temperature re-quired to vaporize the hydrocarbon. Theprocess of manufacturing " fuel" is bybringing hydrogen in contact with car-bon in a generator, the construction ofwhich is such as to distribute the heat ofthe steam through tho hydrocarbon.Burners are so arranged at the point ofcombustion, that the steam at a rarefiedtemperature is consumed, and a hydro-carbon flame produced. This invention,it is claimed, has over the use of coal tliofollowing advantages: One-half thocost, simplicity of construction, and in-tense heating power, which can be quick-ly regulated with ease from tho lowest tothe highest degree; perfect combustion,no smoke, no ashes. In the manufactureof iron, glass, porcelain, etc., these qimli-tie's render such a machine peculiurly im-portant.

Southern Support.The Richmond Enquirer is "supporting"

Mr. Greeley in a style that will probablylead him to invite its hostility. It in-dorses his nomination after this style :

" With Mr. Greeley it is quite anotherthing. He was not a soldier in the warat all. He did tho part of a simplo citi-zen and not of a warrior. Ho had no of-ficial position. He was not in power—and he used all his influence first, to permit the South to depart in peace, and af-terwaidl t > settle the difficulty upon anyterms thai v-ere honorable alike to bothsections. It is not by any means a caseof debasing or degrading surrender of theprinciples upon which the ' lost cause 'was fought, such as confessedly would bethe elevation of the immediate instru-ment of our discomfiture to power by ourown act. Every Confederate soldier inthe Sou»h can vote for Greeley withoutfeeling that he has made any sacrifice ofhis principles or his manhood—and thatis a very important point. Mr. Greeleyhad nothing to do in fact with the actualwar. On the contrary, had it been leftto him, it would never have taken place.He was not oven a good * trumpeter '—assome will say—for although he blew ' OntoKichmond' both loud and shrill, nobody paid enough attention to him tocoino to Richmond."

Abstemiousness of the Turks.Constantinople is the most temperate

capital in the world. Spending a day af-ter day in the open air, wandering amongthe common folks, having at cne timeseveral people in my employ, even in thebiting air before dayiight I never foundany Turk drinking stronger beveragethan coffee. But that is nothing to theirgreat annual feast. During the Rama-dan, which lasts a whole month, fromsunrif-e to sunset the panting boatman,the heavy laden porter will toueh noth-ing like focd, not even tobacco, and nodrink whatever; and at sundown will makeup for this abstinonco not by a drunkencarouse, but by a larger dish of pilnu andand a longer smoke of Lataka. To besure, temperance is a part of tho Turk'sreligion, but is it not of ours ? And thatreligion an imposture, as we call it—hassomething very real in its worship at fourin the morning the year round, its indif-ference to "Infidels'" gaze, the hearti-ness of all its observances, the severity ofits daily self-denials. Often havo I foundthe shop entirely open while the shopmanwas at his prayers, and I have taken upthe goods to see if anybody would remon-strate, and laid them down again withoutanybody's interferance.
